Carbonara Trattoria

The ambiance was so nice! Our waiter was good! We really enjoyed the calamari and the bruschetta appetizers!! My carbonara pasta was good and my bf enjoyed his bolognese pasta. Tiramisu was very light and delicious!

From the minute you walk in you are greeted with family owned and operated warmth that so many restaurants are missing these days. Most nights, the owner(s) are personally greeting all guests with a warm welcoming smile and kind word, and are there to escort you to the door when you leave. Most patrons have been coming here for many years and make this a weekly regular dining experience. The cozy bar area is a touch livelier than the main dining room, and it does have a tv for sports fans! The quaint outside white tablecloth dining is also an option and is perfectly candlelit for ambiance - you feel very much of an Italy vibe!! The menu has a great selection of true Italian cuisine. From the beet salad to the chicken piccata to the lasagna, the chicken parm, the fish dishes, steak - yes, the steak is amazing, the list goes on and on, and oh the Key Lime Pie!! Always served promptly, hot, fresh and delicious. Excellent wine list (and by the glass), and Sunday and Wednesday 1/2 off bottle specials. Always a generous pour; wine and cocktails! Also, a great curated cocktail menu! The staff remembers your name and your preferences, and they are always eager to make your meal just how you want it -will make little tweaks if desired and as needed. Professional, friendly, timely and attentive service, always. The general feel at Carbonara Trattoria --- it makes you feel like home! To Rafik and Pat, along with all the staff - thank you for the wonderful meals and fun times, and the special care you give to me and my Millie (greenbeans) !!! I highly recommend - be sure to make a reservation as they fill up fast!!! Cheers!

Atmosphere and service is always 10/10. The fare is not the most creative but it is delicious. The holiday specials were especially good. One star missing only because I felt they could be more standout with their menu selections based on the quality of their food. The wine selection is exquisite.

Amazing food! My husband and I went here Saturday 2/18 for date night. The restaurant does need to be cleaned better. The mirrors on the back wall were covered in finger prints & hand prints, the wall had some food splatter on it. Definitely recommend the restaurant to have staff clean better. I understand this is a older establishment. But the food & drinks were great. Our waiter Tony was on top of things, very friendly and professional. We will definitely go back again. We ordered Grilled artichokes, Carbonara,Veal Piccata, and for drinks my husband got a rum and coke and I got the Van Gogh Martini which is an espresso martini.

The place was amazing! The food was delicious and the service couldn't have been better. I had the lamb which was perfectly cooked. I also had the fried green tomatoes appetizer, best I've had! My gf had the pesto pasta crab cake and that was delicious as well. Definitely a great experience!

We are visiting Atlanta from North Carolina. We were craving a good Italian meal so we tried Carbonara. We were delighted with the pastas and especially the short rib. It was a large fat free piece that was full of flavor. My wife got the pasta and it was not boxed pasta definitely hand made..Very impressed with the staffs team player ways of taking care of diners. Very well ran authentic Italian restaurant. I WOULD GIVE 6 STARS IF I COULD..Wish we had rhis back in Raleigh NC

We went for a Valentine’s Day date night so it was incredibly busy, but super fun and the food and wine was amazing. We were on the patio, so I will say the atmosphere was just a tad underwhelming because we were seated right next to the little daycare gymnastics center and they could see out and we could see in and they were coming up to the window staring onto our table. But! The meal was incredible and it was so busy so I definitely understand waiting awhile to be served and they did the best they could!

We came to Carbonara Trattoria for a small celebration, and honestly, it was exactly what we needed. The vibe is always on point—warm, welcoming, and just the right mix of cozy and classy. It’s the kind of place where you instantly relax. The food? So fresh and flavorful. We started with the bruschetta, and it was perfect—crispy bread, juicy tomatoes, fresh basil. Simple but done right. For the main, I had the chicken piccata, and it was super tender with that bright, lemony sauce that hits just right. Everything tasted like it was made with care. Drinks were refreshing too—light, not too sweet, and perfect for toasting. And the service was great—friendly, easygoing, and made us feel taken care of without being over the top. This is why we love coming here. It always feels special, the food is consistently delicious, and the whole experience is just easy and enjoyable. Definitely one of our go-to spots.
