Amy McIver: Beef carpaccio, gnocchi with duck ragu, pork porterhouse were all amazing. Duck ragu was delicious & unique. Pork was cooked perfectly. Carpaccio with chips, cheese and apples not to miss!
Matt Dermody: Regularly changing menu with a great variety of southern fusion options. We had the shrimp spaghetti, duck ragu, and mountain chicken thighs.
GourmetLive: Anne Quatrano & Clifford Harrison cure their own salumi, serve spicy homemade peach preserves w country terrines, chicken livers with fresh rosemary, and have at least 8 original desserts on the menu

Leggs Nikkimo: Turkey Ragu is my fave. I always order it with angel hair and get a side house salad...perfect meal for someone craving quick, tasty, reasonable Italian.
Nana Wells: So I just had the shrimp and four cheese pizza w/spinach and oh my gosh-it was bomb. And those mozzarella sticks! Yep, I would definitely come again! ;)
Shawanda: Chicken philly, salmon panino, and salmon salad are all on point!

Chris Taylor: The wine list here is excellent. Try the Gavi do Gavi by La Scola. And the food is great. I highly recommend the farfelle past with lobster and wine sauce. It's great!
Howard Clark: Seafood risotto, Sea Bass, and Almond gelato
Intown Expert, Jennifer Kjellgren & Associates: "The Italian restaurant in the little yellow house" offers up traditional dishes and an excellent wine list from the Italian-born brothers that run the place. Try the grilled octopus appetizer.

Barclay Rose: Get anything. Seriously, close your eyes and pick something on the menu, I guarantee you'll love it. Daniel at the bar is amazing Limoncello is brilliant. Can't wait for Proseco on tap!
Creative Loafing Atlanta: Varuni Napoli's slightly sweet pizza crust has a nice amount of blistering and provides a satisfying crunch and chewy tug. Read more.

Creative Loafing Atlanta: The regular pizza Margherita is one of the better pizzas in town. For entrees, order the espresso-dusted elk. It comes over chestnut sformatino, and satisfies tender and meaty cravings generously.
Taste of Atlanta: If you're looking for a deal stop by for 10 At 10 - all pizzas are $10 after 10PM, nightly.
Creative Loafing Atlanta: During two visits, the pub has been crowded with locals, who seem delighted that a favorite has reopened after closing for some months. Read more.
