Top Tags:
La Tavola translates to “the table” in Italian—a place where friends and families can gather anytime. Simple yet elegant dishes, classic sauces and creative entrees emphasize the true taste of Italy’s premier ingredients, complemented by a carefully chosen and extensive wine selection.

La Tavola’s exposed brick, dark wood floors and rustic colors give the restaurant its authentic trattoria feel, while progressive touches hint at its innovative cuisine. And with indoor seating for 60 guests, a small bar and an outdoor covered patio for 40 or more, the space is just right for celebrating any occasion together.

As Executive Chef at Atlanta's best Italian trattoria, Chef Kevin Grossman is inspired by the culture and heart of the south and enjoys intertwining the northern flavors of his past with southern cuisine to create what he refers to as “rustic comfort food.”

With nearly 15 years of hospitality experience under his belt, La Tavola has always been one of his favorites!

    A wonderful little trattoria with a great ambience and thoughtful staff. Go on Mondays for some pasta specials or any other night for their standards. Great with friends or for a date night. Eat in the dining room for date night; outside on the back patio if you want it quieter. It’s a dreamy place. Everyone’s friendly, the lighting is just-so, the food amazing and you’ll always leave in a good mood.

    We have been trying to find an outstanding Italian restaurant in Atlanta and we've most definitely found it! The food was absolutely excellent, the service similarly excellent and the decor and environment were great. No doubt about it: next time we have a special day to celebrate (last night was our anniversary) or visitors to treat, we'll be returning to La Tavola Trattoria.

    Extremely mediocre food. Cacio e pepe was low on cheese and had no pepper. Spaghetti carbonara had almost no cheese. Both dishes were overly salty, as were the meatballs. The meatballs were also in a very tart sauce. This is one of the worst italian meals I have had.

    We had a delightful meal last evening at La Tavola. The chicory salad, which is fairly new on the menu was very good, and we also had the mushroom ragout, which was delicious as usual. For us, going to La Tavola is like going “home” because everyone who works there is so friendly and interested in us. Quite often, we go to a movie before going to La Tavola, and everyone is always interested in what we saw, and what we thought of it.

    Our server made the night but the food was disappointing at best. A old favorite place one last time really. A soggy Caesar salad, meatballs so salty we couldn’t finish. Same salt issues with the veal and we finally just called it a wrap finished our drinks and called it done. If not for our server we would have definitely had a miserable time. As it was we just focused on the positives which included the drinks and Bolognese.

    Long time fans of La Tavola. The food is great and the service is usually pretty good. My only complaint is the seating is very cramped and uncomfortable. This is why we usually get take away instead dinning in.

    We just love dining at LT. We have never had a bad meal in the 10+ years that we have been dining here! The servers are all so great. They describe the dishes so well. They course everything out perfectly. Although it's a smaller menu compared to some other restaurants, you can always find something different on the menu each season. Whether it's the burrata prepared in a different way (fig, yumm!) or a stuffed pasta with a seasonal veggie; it's all amazing. And the great thing is, if you aren't into seasonal flavors, they have their staples like the squid ink pasta, mushroom ragu, etc. The ambiance is cozy, inviting and intimate. It's our go-to spot for a date night or celebration dinner.

    Fantastic meal and server, Scotty, who made the perfect recommendations for wine, meals and dessert. 3 women shared Caesar salad, zuppe di pesce and tagliolini with mushrooms. All were amazing and Scotty told us the cheesecake would blow our minds- and he was so right. Down to earth restaurant, very reasonably priced for fantastic food, service and ambience was laid back too. Would return regularly if I lived in the area.

    While I love this restaurant, the menu is limited for me since I am allergic to poultry (think chicken stock.) I’m disappointed that they use chicken stock in several BEEF dishes (meatballs, bolognese, etc.) Otherwise, service is excellent (Amanda is awesome,) food quality and taste is excellent and ambiance is great. It’s a bit noisy but it feels cozy and energized.

The quality of the food and overall dining experience is absolutely the best that Atlanta had to offer. La Tavola is my all time favorite!

    Our whole dinner experience was a 10000/10! Our waiter, Scott, was so incredibly accommodating & explained the menu so well. We had our toddler with us & Scott made it an experience for him as well! He included him in every conversation, gave him a coloring sheet with crayons, and was overall just so kind & made it such a meaningful experience for us. We’ll definitely be back when we visit ATL again!

    Our first time at La Tavola (we had tried walking in before but no luck-so book ahead!) and a great little restaurant it is. Our Arctic Char was prepared to perfection, and the Hamachi crudo was super. A good wine list (we chose the Amarone) and reasonably priced too. If you are a couple or perhaps a lean foursome, request a booth and you will have the best seat in the house!

    Always a treat to go to LaTavola. Food, service, and ambiance are great. Brought out of town guests to show them our favorites in Atlanta and it didn't disappoint. Although the new squid ink pasta dish doesn't hold a candle to the old one that was one of my favorites anywhere.

    I’m not sure if they were behind or scrambling and trying to catch up for lost time, but every food item was burned and the roasted chicken had definitively been placed and left in the broiler too long. The meat was so dry that even the skin was dried out and shriveled. The sprouts were burned to the point where they were hard and piercing. It’s like everything was cooked at the highest possible temperature to help the kitchen get caught up. They comped the chicken dish which was nice, but it was an overall incredibly disappointing experience. We don’t plan on coming back.
