Serving the finest in Northern & Regional Italian Cuisine, La Grotta offers old world charm and friendly, first class service and is located in the heart of Buckhead. A local favorite since 1978, La Grotta has received Best of Atlanta Award from Atlanta magazine since the mid 1980’s, prestigious DiRONA and AAA Four Diamond Awards since the early 90's.


La Grotta is tucked away in the heart of the Buckhead residential district and overlooks the lush gardens of the condo courtyard in which it is located. La Grotta literally means "the cave" in Italian and was named such for its cavernous and warm setting. The La Grotta staff is also well known and regarded for its vast knowledge of its customers, the food, diverse knowledge of languages (our staff speaks Italian, Spanish, French & German) and attention to detail. The menu specializes in Northern Italian cuisine with seasonal changes to reflect freshness of ingredients with a focus on locally grown produce.

    This is a great restaurant. I’ve always enjoyed myself. Great ambience good service. But this time the food wasn’t great. We ordered Dover Sole which is hard to find and it just simply had no flavor at all. It’s like they forgot the salt or the capers or something. That’s rare for this place so don’t Bank not going because of one bad Dover Sole. But it was just bland, almost undercooked. That was disappointing, but everything else was great.

    Amazing as usual, one of my all time favorite restaurants. However, we were a table of 2 between large parties so the first time I felt ignored by the wait staff

    Was amazed at how crowded you were that late on a Tuesday night. All of the staff - including bartender; hostess & Jorge our server, were so friendly! I needed some help with a knee scooter and they were so helpful. This was a special 85th birthday celebration for a dear friend of mine. Thanks for everything! 🌺
