La Grotta Ristorante

For nearly five decades, patrons have convened in true speakeasy style for one of Atlanta’s best kept secrets. Tucked away in the cellar of a Buckhead condo building, La Grotta offers upscale dining in an intimate ambiance overlooking a lush courtyard garden.  Serving traditional Northern Italian cuisine, the menu emphasizes fresh pastas, seafood, and veal. 

 Started by Sergio Favalli & Antonio Abizanda, La Grotta (the cave in Italian) was Atlanta’s first fine dining Italian restaurant. Since that time, La Grotta has become known for it’s well-seasoned staff, well-heeled patrons, and it’s philosophy that trends come and go but classic never goes out of style. While La Grotta is now owned by the next generation, Christian Favalli, the classic and iconic nature of 1978 La Grotta still remains. This unwavering devotion to keeping it classic is what truly sets La Grotta apart.
