One of my favorite spots for brunch on a Saturday or Sunday in Buckhead. The service is always top notch, the menu is varied and thus far I've never been disappointed with the quality of the meals I've ordered. It can be a tad noisy at times, but if you sit on the patio, you can avoid most of the energy pulsating from the main dining room. Lots of parking conveniently located around the restaurant and their app for booking a reservation is easy to use. Overall, I would have to give Taverna-Buckhead a five-star rating!

The food was undeniably good, with dishes that were well-prepared and flavorful. However, the experience felt rushed, as the courses arrived almost immediately after one another, leaving little time to savor each dish. Additionally, the ambiance was less than ideal due to the constant opening of the door to the outside, which brought in unwelcome drafts and made it difficult to relax. A bit more attention to pacing and temperature control would elevate the dining experience significantly.

La Tavola is absolutely amazing! Staff are so attentive and knowledgeable. Food was delicious, Highly recommend the Caesar salad and the mushroom ragu. Finishing the meal with their cheesecake and home made limoncello just topped off a wonderful meal!
