Italian
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!

    La Tavola continues to be a neighborhood gem. We had the ricotta gnocchi cacio e pepe with rabbit. It was just outstanding. Our server, Scott (?), was attentive but never a distraction. We spent 2 1/12 hours over a leisurely meal and never felt hurried. Just outstanding.

    As always, food was superb, service attentive. Unfortunately, some close-by diners’ screeching concersations put a damper on the evening. Not the fault of the restaurant. Remains a favorite.

    We were greeted warmly upon arrival by Beth (Manager) who we consider a friend. Amanda was our server and did a fabulous job. They have made a major improvement in the bread/Olive oil combination by adding seasoning to the oil, which has long been missing. Drinks from the bar were perfection, especially the "Line in the Sand" (tequila) which has not been on the menu for years.

    The food was excellent: we each had Frito misto, which was great. I had lamb, which was the best I have ever eaten. In short our meal was excellent. Our server, Michael is outstanding. All in all, a great evening.

    This was our last dinner outing together as we get ready to welcome our new baby into this world. Hank was our server and was outstanding! We know we won’t be going out to a fancy dinner again for several months, and La Tavola was definitely the best choice we could have made to celebrate! The back patio was amazing to dine on in this weather. Honestly couldn’t have had a better experience. We’ll be back in a few months for sure!!

    Oh my God! My birthday dinner was absolutely amazing. I’m writing this as I’m eating my leftover tagliolini with mushroom ragu & veal meatballs. I can’t explain how good it is. We also had the misto di mare. That aioli is to die for! I loved the Caesar salad and my wife’s lamb loin. My mezcal margarita was perfect. Hank has a lovely way to his service. It was non-intrusive, yet attentive. He’s very knowledge about the menu. I had weight loss surgery, so my stomach is tiny. I was glad I was able to order the appetizer portion of pasta. I was stuffed, yet still had leftovers. My birthday dessert was so moist. It was an olive oil cake. I couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Thank you!

    Have been enjoying LaTavola for close to 15 years. It continues to be a special place that never disappoints. Food, service, ambiance is unmatched. Love the background music! Gnocchi and veal just amazing. Caesar one of the best as was the cheesecake. Our server was fantastic. Anxious to try the new squid ink preparation as the old one was my absolute favorite, hope it returns. Fortunately I learned to make it at home, obviously not quite as good but cures my hankering for it.

    It was lovely sitting on the covered porch with visiting family. Superior service. Food was all delicious. I appreciate there is option of a smaller pasta portion. This left room to share the wonderful olive oil cake with lemon curd. Going early meant the noise level was fine for our group which includes the hard of hearing, however, near the end of our Friday night visit, it did ramp up to a louder level than we would choose.
