We held our surprise wedding here and it was perfect! The event coordinator and staff did everything possible to make sure our guests felt welcomed and taken care of like family. We met with Tana beforehand and created a menu and wine pairing that complimented the absolutely delicious food. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how wonderful the food tasted from appetizers to desserts. And several guests noticed the outstanding service. We will be back soon Pasta da Pulcinella and again, thank you for a wonderful evening!

I’m in Atlanta for business several times a year, and we always make a reservation for Pasta Da Pulcinella every trip. The food is delicious, the staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the wine list is great. They’re really accommodating for gluten free or celiac diets like mine, with gluten free pasta substitutes for many of the dishes on the menu. The risottos are also great, that’s usually my go to when I’m there. The restaurant can be a bit crowded for dinner so make sure you plan ahead with a reservation, especially for larger groups.

Can’t say enough good things about PDP! The refurbished home-turned-restaurant adds a nice touch to the bustling Midtown vibe and is a quaint and quiet place for dinner. You will need to make reservations because it is quite popular and the people that dine here know what’s good-lots of foodies who like an authentic meal and experience. There is one waitress we love (short blond hair) and is exceptional. If you go, go all out. Dessert and wine is a must to complete your meal.

Wow! This place is very nice and cozy inside. The service was super! Isabella was very attentive and gave excellent suggestions. I had the chicken cannelloni without mushrooms (per my request). I requested a side of champagne sauce to drizzle on top and ended up dipping the fresh slided bread in it. I followed up with Tiramisu for dessert that was heavenly and so light. I’ll be back the next time I’m in town.

I’ve been here nearly 4 or 5 times now and will continue coming back! The food is spectacular here and not overpriced at all. I try to always get the tiramisu if I’ve got enough room because it’s freakin delicious! The ambiance of the space is quite comfortable as well. It’s located in an old house it seems and has that homey feel which I love. Good place to go for a birthday or just dinner with family or a friend!

Had dinner with good friends from Atlanta on March 16..a busy Friday night. We found out why it is a busy restaurant: the food is excellent, great wine list, yummy dessert, and a wait staff that is par excelente! Line was our server–such fun, professional, and knowledgable. We had outstanding pasta..the
Tortellini di Mele was the best! And a generous serving (took some home) at $17.00 was amazing! Make certain to make reservations as this is a popular place! I will be back!!!

As an experienced concierge in the hospitality industry over 7 yrs, I’ve visited many restaurants. I can truly say that this is one of the best Italian restaurants that you can experience in all of Georgia. The atmosphere is lively and romantic because of their intimate setting. I recommend that you order from their original menu which was established in 1994. I had the Ravioli Di Funghi which was very succulent, seasoned with the perfect of amount of herbs. My date had Lobster Ravioli and she said it was wonderful. I will be going back frequently. I would like to specifically give a shout out to Robyn & Robin who hosted us. They took great care of us!

It’s been about 20 years since my last visit here and I’m kicking myself for waiting so long! We arrived early for a Saturday night and they were already packed, but we got a cozy table for two and proceeded to enjoy fine wines and cocktails. The by the glass wine list is brief but satisfied me with generous and reasonable priced pours of a delicious Riesling that complimented my Caprese salad nicely. The salad was fresh with a nice balsamico. Our entrees arrived the minute we finish our salads. The fresh pastas were exquisite. My friend got the healthy buckwheat pasta with broccoli rabe and mushrooms. It was very tasty. My decadent pumpkin ravioli had just the right amount of brown butter. I used some fresh bread to dab up that sauce tho. I didn’t leave a drop. We had room leftover for cannoli. I’m not usually a fan but my friend cleaned the plate and pronounced it delicious. Just hope I don’t have to wait another 20 years before I visit again.

My wife and I drove here through rush-hour Atlanta traffic to give it a try. First of all everything was outstanding – service, food and atmosphere. We order chicken tortellini with sun-dried tomato and roasted walnuts cream basil sauce and ravioli Di fungi. Both dishes were amazing. The tortellini was very flavorful, the combination of chicken, sun-dried tomatoes and basil sauce was perfect. The ravioli had amazing flavor, roasted garlic, mushrooms was great. Our salads – Cesar and caprese were also very good. The portions were good size. We ended by ordering desert lemon sorbetto and chocolate layer cake. Both were very good – very lemon/refreshing and very very chocolate! Finally our server(S) were great. We had 3 different people waiting and making sure we had everything. All were very personable and very friendly. We definitely will come back next time we are in Atlanta – plus tell our daughter, son and friends it’s worth s visit!!!

OMG, this was a great find. My group of 20 dined here and Cole was so amazing in taking care of our party! I’m a fussy eater and I will tell you that the gluten-free pasta was incredible — light, great flavor, just exactly what I wanted. I would absolutely come back here again.

I’ve been dying to try this spot out for sometime, and I seriously regret not getting there sooner! PDP is such a quaint and tucked away treasure in midtown. The service and the food were both outstanding. Michael was our server, and he didn’t miss a beat! Both, the food and the alcohol menus are the perfect size. Not too much as to be overwhelming and absent of concept, but enough so that there’s definitely something for anyone, and the items therein are done exceptionally well. We started with drinks (the amalfi) and the fried ravioli. Both were spot on. For dinner, I went with the Tortellini de Mele. This savory dish was outstanding and left nothing to desire in the way of taste. My friend got the chicken tortellini and cleared his plate quickly. The portion sizes are perfect. To close the meal, we had the tiramisu. As for par with the other courses, it was decadent and the perfect way to end the experience. Michaels service was an incredible blend of knowledge, guidance, and above all- warm hospitality. Thanks to him and Pasta de Pulcinella for a fabulous dinner!

This was absolutely divine. We are from out of town and were searching for the true Italian feel we got last summer while in Italy, and they nailed it! Small and intimate yet not cramped. Food was outstanding, loved every bite! Cannoli was wild… something in it made our tongues tingle but it was so cool. Good serving sizes and all done with great speed! Personally wouldn’t have mind if the food took a little longer to come (we enjoy a slow date night) but I do appreciate the speed. Highly recommend :)

I really enjoyed this restaurant. I came in November after a trip to the High Museum, and we walked in the cold about 15 minutes to finally arrive at the restaurant. Not only was the warm restaurant so cozy, but the atmosphere was so cute. I ordered the Tagliatelle Verdi Alla Bolognese. It was a few months back, so I don’t remember all of the flavors, but I knew I wanted a red creamy sauce, and it really hit the spot. It was so tasty! I’m gonna be looking for another occasion to bring someone here soon! Although it is a pricier restaurant, I think the atmosphere, the service, the food make it all worth it!

This is one of the friendliest restaurants with thorough service in midtown. I came with my dog during a busy time and the kind hostess accommodated me easily on their nice patio. Koa, was an incredible waiter who provided thoughtful recommendations while managing a very busy section. I don’t often pick Italian for dinner when traveling to Atlanta, but I’m very glad I did.

Went with my Italian language group and Ben was our server. He also is fellow yelper so he was selective in his evaluation of what dishes to recommend. He knew exactly what I “needed” the Tortelli di Mele, which was delicious and a specialty of the house. I traded taste with the guy next to me who ordered the mushroom raviolis , this was also amazing! I will definitely go back!. Parking is across the street and convenient, but they only validate PART of the bill. I was there 2.5 hours and parking was $6.
Still will return even if I have to pay for parking- it is worth it!

Bravo! Had a whole group of folks from Memphis craving something different while in Atlanta on business. Yelped up this little piece of culinary delight and everyone was happy as could be! Lord, the ravioli dishes are to die for. The before appetizers were munched in short order along with the fresh salads. Then we all tied into our favorite looking ravioli dish. No body complained one iota. The deserts looked tempting, but fullness had set in.
Come back? You can bet on it!

Love the atmosphere and food. Both have been outstanding during our 5 trips. Pasta Da Pulcinella’s prices are very fair based on the quality of their dishes. Becoming a family favorite. I have tried multiple dishes and all have been delicious. While all experiences with their servers have been positive, we always ask for Robin as our server. He is very attentive, friendly and can answer any wine or menu questions.

We love this Italian restaurant! Seating is tight in their cozy space, but the food is excellent. Our homemade pasta dishes are always a pleasure, and the arugula salad is one of my favorites. I like the way the menu has its “always” side and its seasonal side. We drive one and a half hours to get there, but when we are in Atlanta, this is a must visit.
