The best of the best! You can find so much, I love buying the sauces, pizza dough cheese and cookies for me and my kids! Gigi and Meredith are incredible hosts for their cooking classes. I’ve invited a few of my students to a few and as a matter of fact we had one yesterday and everyone loved it! They spoke Italian and enjoyed Gigi’s tips on creating delicious food!
I'm Italian and this is the best place ever! I had a wonderful conversation with the owner who's really nice and I really have nothing to complain about this place and products, everything taste delicious and fresh!
This little gem is so authentic. The food is delicious and Gigi is a wonderfully cheerful, knowledgable presence in the shop. This is truly a slice of Italy.
Super friendly owners and delicious food! We tried the lemon ravioli this weekend and loved it. We will definitely be back!
What a great evening! Wonderful wine with delicious food, thoroughly nice "table mates", lovely experience! Thank you for providing the opportunity !

Amazing experience with owners Luigi(chef) and Meredith! My husband and I walked in for a quick lunch and left with happy bellies, 2 new friends, signing up for a cooking class and being fans for life. Great food, great people, a nice place to be, in every way.
A spot of Italy in Virginia Highland!!!
The food is great and the warmth of the proprietors is infectious
Great wine selection at reasonable prices. We tried the lasagna and bought 2 of the sauces. The porcini sauce is crazy good and the arrabbiata was perfect. We went back for more. Service is always wonderful
Fantastic food and owners. Gigi and Meredith are the best.
Great Italian atmosphere and food. Excellent sfogliatella!
Attended the 2nd wine tasting. Really just a "local gem" - small, personal, high quality, and fun. Great job Luigi & Meredith, your are totally genuine! Keep it up. We need more of this type of business (and less impersonal chains), so please support them.
I liked the place a whole bunch. Great selection of Italian food items. Panini, cheeses, deli meats, dried pastas, wine, prepared foods, gelato! Add a friendly and helpful staff and it's a great reason to hang out. The one suggestion I would make is to create a bigger more thorough blackboard of what's available, what's in the deli case. It would make shopping way easier.
The store is amazing!
Luigi and his staff are wonderful.
Don't be scared to ask a few questions... never know what you might learn.

If you are seeking fresh pasta and a truly authentic Italian experience when it comes to food items and delicacies, I highly recommend this little shop tucked neatly in a row of purveyors in the North Highland / Virginia Highlands area of Atlanta, GA.
Finding authentic freshly made bucatini outside of your Nonna's kitchen can be like finding a needle in a haystack. This is THE PLACE to find real pasta and the most authentically Italian items. I was in a mad rush prior to the Thanksgiving holiday (my goal was to make Cacio e Pepe for my dinner guests that evening) and their customer service associate. Rosie/Rosa was extremely helpful!
Also, if I had the time I would have had a panini - they looked scrumptious.
Bravo! Meredith D'Arienzo, Proprietor for curating the most amazingly authentic food experiences in the city of Atlanta!
Neighborhood Italian bistro done right. You can buy meats, cheeses, olive oil and wine! What more do you need? Luigi is a great chef and offers wine tastings and cooking classes. The pasta and wine photo is from a wine tasting. He offers group travel too.
Excellent store! We went here for a private event where they prepared a dinner with a wine pairing. All the food was amazing and perfectly paired with Italian wines. We had a delicious salad and charcuterie plate to start, followed by two pastas that were perfect and full of flavor. We finished with a light dessert that was delicious!! It was an excellent evening at such a great spot!!
Cannoli, cannoli, cannoli. They have prepared dinners, paninis and a great wine selection. Really friendly service.
The sandwiches here are absolutely out of this world. The staff is extremely welcoming.
