La Grotta Ristorante Atlanta Reviews from The Last Year
My wife took me here for my birthday.
I don't understand how this place can give any bad reviews. People have complained about the food not being good. They must have not know how to order. The place is odd when you pull up because it's in a regular residential building but once you go downstairs the ambiance is wonderful. A quaint environment with a nice terrace. The food was amazing. The service was good and I loved it. I ordered a traditional Italian dish and it was so good. The waiter was knowledgeable and gave us a free Peach Bellini for my birthday. I loved it and it had a nice upclass atmosphere that you don't get with all restaurants and I can't wait to go back. Go here. You will love it but order REAL Italian food.
Disappointed in service.
We had 8:15 reservations from a month prior and we still had to wait for 15 minutes. Service was slow, it took forever to get a round of drinks. The waiters never came back to see if everything was okay or if we needed anything. I had the pasta with broccoli rabe and sausage and that was excellent. My husband had the fillet and it was not the best he ever had, below average. So disappointed after all I had heard about the place.
Let me start by saying what most other folks start by
Let me start by saying what most other folks start by saying when leaving a negative review: I usually don't leave these. But, when you dine at a restaurant which takes months to get into due to high demand leaving rare slots for reservations, you expect a meal that is memorable. This meal was memorable, unfortunately not due to the quality or taste of the food. From the moment we walked in, the valet did not appear to want to work, and when asked if the car could be parked closer he asked for a $50 tip. Our initial server had responses that were condescending when we attempted to order a bottle of wine, in addition responding in short questions that would seem to be normal for a first-time diners at this restaurant. Maybe he was just socially awkward, hard to know. I ordered the steak. Yes I know this is not a steakhouse, but the Italians in some regions are particularly known for their steak, and being a restaurant that is of some reputation that we were under the impression of, I ordered it medium rare. The ends were burnt, and the majority of the cut of tenderloin was grainy and chewed like a medium well. There was a dash of pink in the very center of the cut. I am not a steak snob, but I do expect a fine dining establishment to cook the meat accurately to medium rare. The manager came over and attempted to explain to me why my cut of meat was medium rare, and did so also with a condescending undertone. This was not appreciated, and I ended up canceling my order altogether after they offered to replace it. This ruined the experience for me. I shared and tastings of the dishes ordered by those at the table with me, and I wish I could say that maybe I just ordered the wrong dish. I am old Atlanta, and I expected an establishment such as this to carry old Atlanta values. Based on the quality of the food and the type of service, this seems to be catering to new (non) Atlanta. I'm not a food critic, nor do I really follow them. But, I cannot help but think about the recent reviews Keith Lee left for the few establishments he visited while in Atlanta. Restaurants need to start earning business again. $400 not well spent. They did not charge for the steak, and offered us a couple of extra scoops of gelato. The manager additionally came over and apologized. Unfortunately too little, too late. First impressions are everything. I will not be coming back, nor recommending any of my loved ones to waste their time waiting for a disappointing reservation. Oh and ambiance: waspy. There you go Yelp.
Amazing.
Great food and atmosphere. A little loud but service is too notch. Have gone back
Some of the best Italian food in the City of Atlanta.
Always has great service. The only down size is on Valentines Day a set menu. There was one one pasta selection. Wish is was regular menu.
I've loved La Grotta ever since their additional location
I've loved La Grotta ever since their additional location at the Perimeter (no longer there). The buckhead restaurant is equally nestled in a beautiful nature filled patio with the same best ingredients and delicious truly italian dishes made to perfection. A perfect spot for a romantic dinner night.
As always, La Grotta remains one of the best Italian
As always, La Grotta remains one of the best Italian restaurants around. The atmosphere is classy, so please dress accordingly, as people go for both the atmosphere as well as the food/vino. The super tuscan vino is great if you are looking for a new wine to try, you can order a glass or the bottle (I recommend bottle if there are 3+ in your party it ends up being cheaper than individual glasses). The sacchetti as well as the pappardelle are both wonderful dishes. The gnocchi is cooked perfectly if you are a gnocchi fan.
Amazing foods with good service, the place is chilling
Amazing foods with good service, the place is chilling absolute heavenly and good place for couple or family
Dont judge a book....
Pull up to a 60s apartment building. Take the elevator to the basement. Find yourself in an initiate setting with amazing service and incredible food. Everything was wonderful from start to finish. Can't wait to return!
Great Evening!
Great food, great service, wonderful ambiance. The valet area was a little backed up but they were moving quickly. Getting into the building to the elevator and down through the "brick walkway" added to the unique experience of finding the restaurant. We definately plan to return soon, anxious to try their outdoor dining.
Hands down, the best restaurant in Atlanta! Always our
Hands down, the best restaurant in Atlanta! Always our choice for special occasions or out of town visitors. Especially love the veal scallopini and the mussels.
Overall, great experience if you want an elevated Italian
Overall, great experience if you want an elevated Italian meal. Highly suggested for nice dinner dates or meals with extended family that you'd like to impress. Service was friendly and helpful in giving suggestions to even the most inexperienced in wine selection.
Disappointment
Is this place over-rated or have we just not yet found the right entree? We went to La Grotta years ago and can’t remember why we never went back, but perhaps we had the same food experience. The ambiance and service were top-notch. No problem there. Bread basket was decent. Wine suggested by waiter after I told him what I like was excellent. We had an off-menu 3-pasta sampler as our starter. Loved the lobster pasta, the bolognese was excellent and the ravioloni good. So far, we were happy campers. Then our entrees arrived. The chicken parm showed no finesse. As one of the least expensive entrees, we figure it’s on the menu for those who are not very adventurous with unsophisticated palates. It was served with a ridiculous pile of overdone pasta on the side. Dover sole was decent, but perhaps showed too much restraint with an almost non-existent sauce. The veggies that came with the sole, however, were perfectly cooked and seasoned. It was a birthday celebration and tho there was a candle on the dessert, we were charged for the three scoops of sorbet on a dish with a candle in it. With the high prices here, you’d think they could afford to comp a couple of scoops of ice cream.
Fantastic service and ambiance.
Damien was our waiter and treated us like family. 5/5 recommend visiting this Buckhead gem!
Delicious!
Food and service were excellent! Highlights were the veal Parmesan and add red pepper flakes, diavolo calamari, tuna carpaccio and sacchetti. The location is in a weird spot.
Best Italian restaurant for a special evening
We visited with another couple. It is downstairs and a bit after a maze to find but once you’re in, it’s beautiful. Our waiter was professional, but also warm and friendly. The service by every server was unfailing perfect. My husband and I both ordered pasta dishes. Both were very good and the portion size was just right. Our friends both ordered veal dishes which they enjoyed. Dessert for my husband was tiramisu which he described as “light and chocolate-forward “. The dinner was faultlessly paced. The room is lively and romantic. We’ll definitely return.
A gem
The entrance of the property which is in the basement made me nervous. But after following the breadcrumbs and finding the restaurant I was delighted. It feels more like a restaurant from the seventies, which cares about each customer like they were their most important - A lost art. The service was over the top and the food was every bit as good. I will visit again.
Best Italian Food !
Probably the best Italian meal we have had, even better than many restaurants in northern Italy. Everything we ordered was delicious.
Best Italian in Atlanta
This is the best Italian restaurant in the City of Atlanta. Truly fine dining. The menu and wine choices are fantastic and if you don't see something you want, simply ask and more often than not they can prepare it for you. The food is delicious, and the service is impeccable.
Fantastic!!
Found this gem through trip advisor while in Atlanta on business. It is wonderful, so rare to find a restaurant that does everything and I mean everything to perfection starting with the attitude of the valets down to the dessert menu. As soon as I saw the menu the first night I immediately booked the next night. They allowed us to split everything so we had four courses each night and tried a good part of the menu. Every course met or exceeded expectations. The service is truly professional, very friendly and accommodating. The wine list is very well chosen, extensive and fairly priced. I wish I could eat here weekly. When in Atlanta do not miss this place.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
