We went to Grana for a casual dinner before visiting the light display at Atlanta Botanical Gardens. The restaurant was fun and spacious, and our server was very good. We enjoyed a meatball flight, which was genius. We shared three pies - a Fibonacci, a Figgy, and a Potato. All of them were delicious and unlike anything we’d had recently. We look forward to dining there again.

My wife and I split the pear and frizzett salad and each of us had the mushroom ragu. Both dishes were excellent as usual. And as usual, we so enjoyed being with the folks who work at La Tavola. Beth does such a great job coordinating everything.

Our server was very nice, friendly, attentive when needed. The food was delicious, a great hidden gem of a restaurant! Only minor complaint I would have was the noise level. Loud from everyone talking and enjoying themselves, but not unbearably so.
