    Di Paolo is a different experience on Sundays, where ambiance and noise shift dramatically due to the increase in customers there for the Sunday wine deal. Certainly worth the trade off as all standard bottles of wine are 50% off, making them close to retail pricing. Food is outstanding, as is service.

    This was my second time dining here and it did not disappoint. Everything we had was delicious. The 1/2 chicken, the Delmonico ribeye, the brussels, the risotto, the veal lasagna amongst other thing were all great.

    The food was amazing. The white truffle garlic bread is to die for and I recommend getting the spicy vodka sauce on the side for dipping!

    From the time you enter and are seated at your table, you feel welcome! I equate it to being at your BFF home sitting on the couch, ready for an engaging evening. Does that paint the picture for you on how warm the environment is??!! Service is great, with high food quality... very fresh, perfect temperature, and portions are generous. Additionally, it's probably one of the best made cappuccinos I have had in the ATL. Can't miss.....check them out!!
