- Creative Loafing AtlantaMay 1, 2015The stellar riff on classic chicken parmesan has twirls of handmade pasta, cream in which Parmesan rinds were steeped, and braised collard greens folded in. Oh, and a boneless fried chicken breast. Read more
Meredith BlechmanOctober 12, 2018Best Italian spot in the city. Cozy, great outdoor patio. Definitely make a reservation 2+ weeks in advance, or try your luck walking in for a bar seat. The tagliatelle is a must.
- EaterJanuary 7, 2014Go for the pasta (the black spaghetti and the 20-yolk tagliatelle are popular choices), stay for the patio— and you can't go wrong with either wine or the craft cocktails.
Everything. Seriously, it is all divine. But if I have to pick faves... Octopus app. 20 yolk tagliatelle, black spaghetti. Best enjoyed with a small group so you can try different things. Go!
Nancy Riley-JamesJuly 2, 2014Super cute, modern rustic space and incredible food. I enjoyed every bite from beginning to end. Nothing went wasted on our plates. Highlights: 20 yolk tagliatelle, beef belly, huckleberry panna cotta
- Creative Loafing AtlantaMay 1, 2015Chef Bruce Logue uses no fewer than 20 yolks from local, farm-raised eggs in every batch of his glorious tagliatelle. Combined with mushrooms and Tuscan kale kimchi, the dish is almost ethereal. Read more
Josh WeissJuly 6, 2018Dim lighting, nice vibe; it's casual and funky but the culinary talent is clear. Any pasta dish. The cacio e pepe pasta and the black spaghetti are my favorites. Nice bar for a cocktail in advance.- Creative Loafing AtlantaSeptember 19, 2013Chef Bruce Logue's imaginative, made-from-scratch Italian cooking will leave you swooning. Find true love, try the black spaghetti with shrimp and homemade sausage. 2013 Best of Atlanta Critics Pick. Read more
Tasting TableMarch 17, 2016This trendy Italian spot is just the place to satisfy any craving! Start out with an order of bruschetta and seal the deal with their popular black spaghetti with red shrimp and calabrese sausage. Read more
ARthur BRuceJanuary 18, 2019Service was very good!The 20 yolk pasta was divine a good size portion with amazing flavor. The garganelli dish was very good but the portion size was small. Would come back again to try another dish
Kristie Lynn RNJanuary 8, 2023Service at the bar from Kyle and Austin was impeccable. Bolognese was excellent and the pasta cooked to perfection. Be aware this place opens at 530 and gets busy quick. If you walk in expect to wait
Everything was truly delicious. The Black Spaghetti was beyond amazing. Everyone should try it. The spinach and ricotta tortellone was also fantastic. Will definitely be heading back to BoccaLupo.
Ashish AryaMay 4, 2013Tables in the front or on the back patio are great. Black spaghetti is the way to go for sure - same that used to be at LPC. Overall great addition to Inman Park.
Gwen DillonSeptember 24, 2013Everything we had was amazing. Black spaghetti. Check. Pork pâté. Check. Macaroni fritters. Check. Great service. Great cocktails. Great great great.- Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014Second fave is the bruschetta "banh mi." It's crispy bread layered with slow-cooked pork, chicken liver, & pickled veggies. Read more
- Deepa SubramanianAugust 9, 2013The homemade 20 yolk tagliatelle with mushrooms and butter sauce was amazing. Nix the kimchi if you're vegetarian. And get The Confessor to drink-- delish.
- Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014Another winner is the spring vegetables fried in a light cloud of batter, served with a sharp colatura aïoli with bottarga. Read more
Kailei CarrJune 25, 2015The fried chicken Parmesan was delicious! So were the brussels sprouts. The flavor combinations there are well done.
Nikki WegnerApril 6, 2019Tasting menu and wine pairing is great. Get the cozy couch outside for full menu.- Tasting TableAugust 5, 2014Logue has embraced his Georgia home with dishes like a Southern ramen with boiled peanuts and a pork-collard green broth. Read more
- fantastic house made pastas, can't go wrong with any of them. try to get a patio seat, lovely!
Tricia BeanJanuary 6, 2017Overall good service. High on list to try their pasta tasting. Disappointed in pasta tasting. Reluctant to say hair under fish in one of dishes. Staff brought aperitif apology but charged us for it.
The black spaghetti, the black spaghetti, the black spaghetti! Oh and the 20 yolk tagliatelle!
ChristinMay 22, 2013Bring back Sauced! The food was great but the aesthetics sucked. They homogenized it... It felt like I was in a modern Olive Garden with similar clientele as well... Uh, but, the food was good.- Michael ClarkFebruary 9, 2014sit at the bar and get the bruschetta 'banh mi' and the black spaghetti. amazing.
A treasure tucked away fringes of the city. Lovely dining and romantic setting
John LiottaSeptember 14, 2014The octopus and mortadella spiedino is one of my favorite dishes right now.
Matt DermodyOctober 18, 2018Honestly a little overrated. I’ve wanted to try it out for so long that when I finally had the opportunity I felt pretty let down. Service is incredible but the food itself is average.
- Can't get enough of the black spaghetti!! Awesome service as well.
Ben RobinsonMarch 13, 2014Food was really good, it took a ridiculously long time. Also, the waiter was mostly AWOL and the manager handled our feedback terribly. Although the food was good, we definitely won't be back.
