    We had a terrific dinner once again at The White Bull! Service was wonderful and I wish I could give the food more than 5 stars. I was surprised with a small birthday dessert that was better than I ever could’ve asked for! This wasn’t our first time here and it won’t be our last!

    Apparently there was an issue with the kitchen vent which they had known about for a 2hrs or so but instead of calling us in advance to save us a trip, they waited to tell us until we got there. There were 4 people in our reservation and we all had to drive 30-45 mins each to get there. They were extremely not accommodating… they did not offer any compensation on our next visit to account for the inconvenience or help secure a backup reservation in their sister restaurants or even offer us a seat while we figured out next steps. We were all very appalled at the way it was handled with no regard to our party. I would expect much better for an establishment of this caliber.

    We’ve eaten at the White Bull several times and have always found it to be quite good. Not this time. Usually good pasta dishes were served cold and the pasta was mushy, having been over cooked. Service was fine. Overall, disappointing.

    Brussels sprouts, butternut squash spaghetti and sweet potato mousse were outstanding. Pappardelle was very good. Black pasta was WAY over spiced. That averages out to a B. Noise level was far higher than your highest choice, "energetic." It's probably fine for diners under 40. I realized how noisy it was when I went to the restroom and experienced a few moments of quiet. Not the usual benefit of a pit stop, but I hated to leave!

    Creative menu. Food was delicious and you get nice portions. Wish dessert offerings were more varied; not everyone likes super sweet dessert. Very nice and relaxed ambiance. The metal chairs not the most comfortable which is too bad because the space is relaxed, inviting and you want to linger. Look forward to going back to try other items.

    This place is great. Food, service, everything is great. Went for a date night on a Friday and the servers were busy but made us feel like we were the only ones there. The food was all excellent and the drinks were thoughtful. Seating is uncomfortable for plus sized people, but they do have one row of benches that are definitely more large-body friendly.

    Our server Dan was knowledgeable and attentive. We sat outdoors and enjoyed the lights, the music from the square, and the overall ambiance. The menu is pretty good - though the funghi fritti was disappointing, the batter was overwhelming - and we loved the rigatoni, lamb rib, tomatoe salad, and dessert door sotol.

    The food here is excellent. Foodies will enjoy the homemade pastas and interesting specials. I had glazed lamb rib (not chop) it was so different and delicious. My red fish entre was cooked beautifully. The cocktails and Amari selection are world class. Most restaurants in Italy do not have the Amari that White bull has. You can event do a flight for those interested in venturing into the world of Amaro! Nick is one of the best bartenders in the South East!

    White Bull feels like a casual place with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The patrons are pretty mixed, a lot of younger people, but it's still welcoming to those who are older. The quality of the food and cocktails is as good as any place in Atlanta. The menu is small, and it's clear that care is taken over every item on it. The Rosemary Focaccia is perfect; appetizers are innovative and well-executed; the pasta dishes are rich and well-balanced. Although the setting seems unassuming, the quality on offer at White Bull is better than many of the lauded and more expensive places in the city with bigger reputations.
