No. 246 offers “OG” red sauce, classic Italian – a reimagined direction that marks a new era for the Decatur gem, paying homage to the old-school, Italian dining scenes of yesteryear. From chefs Drew Belline and Ford Fry, the menu showcases the likes of spicy rigatoni vodka and a bowl of meatballs in gravy plus remixed, throwback to classics like calamari marinara, cheesy garlic bread, Nonna-approved pizzas and pastas and secondi crowd-pleasers like chicken al limone and shrimp scampi – plus classic cocktails and a carefully curated wine list of American and Italian standouts.

    So many reviews on that garlic bread and it was very subpar. Not a big garlic taste and burnt.

    We went for my mom’s birthday and had an amazing time! She has a gluten allergy and they were incredibly accommodating. Any pasta could have been subbed for gluten free pasta (aside from one stuffed pasta) and all meat dishes could be made gluten free (aside from chicken and eggplant Parmesan and the fish). My dad got the chicken Parmesan and it literally took up the entire plate! I got the spicy rigatoni vodka pasta and it was SO good! Perfect amount of spice for sure.

    Everything about 246 is phenomenal. Have eaten here on multiple occasions and they never disappoint. Please do yourself a favor, make a reservation and go and eat some of the most delish Italian food you can have outside of Italy.

    The food was excellent, but I wouldn’t recommend making a reservation after 8:30 pm on a weeknight. We initially struggled to get a decent time slot, with only an 8:45 pm reservation available. However, when we arrived, half the restaurant was empty. Unfortunately, the pacing of our meal felt rushed. Appetizers arrived before our drinks, and the main course was served before we even had a chance to order wine. At a restaurant that should encourage a slow, enjoyable dining experience, the speed felt excessive—especially given the $200 price tag for what ended up being just an hour-long meal. Next time, we’ll skip the late reservation and opt for a more relaxed experience at the bar instead.
