Since when is Duck organ or fat good for anyone.
This is for folks that like the Highland image.
Boooo
Cons: Limited Menu

I've been to Sotto Sotto twice - the first time, sat in booth along wall. A companion sitting in chair said "whoever selected these chairs should be shot." Undeterred, we had a great and very expensive meal with all courses and wine. The second visit, I entertained out of town friends. The 5 of us were very very cramped along an aisle and we all suffered in those horrible chairs, yelling at each other in order to be heard. I don't see a return visit in my future, except for maybe takeout.
Pros: Excellent Food
Cons: Horrible chairs, expensive, loud

On the recommendation of a friend from Italy I went here with several girlfriends from work and we thought the food was fantastic! It was great place for a girls' night out and it looks like it would be a nice spot for a romantic dinner unless you are seated at one of the many banquettes which seem to be much too close together -- like your earting with the couple next to you! We didn't have that problem and had a great time. Try the amazing risotto -- best I've ever had.
Pros: great authentic Italian food
Cons: banquette seating is too close together

The food at Sotto Sotto will not disappoint, but the staff sometimes will. Still, if you can overlook the snotty attitudes, this is some of the best Italian in Atlanta. The risottos are to die for, especially the caramalized onion with balsamic and the mushroom risotto. Be sure to make a reservation, and even then expect a wait

My favorite thing on the menu is the simple mint ravioli. Cooked to perfection. I also recommend ordering the three different oils to go with the bread. I found the food to be wonderful and the service excellent. It is small and loud, but that didn't bother me at all.

So after exhaustive research I've decided the question is how soon I'd go back. Would I decide that despite all the other great untried restaurants popping up daily in Atlanta that I'd rather go back to this one? Answer-nope. That doesn't mean this place wasn't without merit. We actually had a nice dining experience. So here's what I liked. Well, I liked the food. It was hearty Italian fare. The seafood risotto, the acid test for many was delicious. The special, wild boar with pasta was very good. Antipasto Misti was yummy. Dessert; ricotta cheesecake not so good. Ricotta is a subtle taste to begin with and this recipe destroyed it. The wine list was also good. Oh, portions were good. Many people were taking stuff home as did we. Service? Our waitperson was really good and trying really hard not to appear rushed but he definitely was. And, even with a reservation we were seated at a very small table near the door which I didn't like. Ambience was nice but average. So do you see what I mean? Really good food but just not such a great dining experience that I'd forgo giving some other highly rated restaurant a pass.
Pros: Good Food
Cons: In sum, an average dining experience

I spent a summer in Italy and have struggled to find truly "authentic" Italian since my return. Sotto Sotto knocked my socks off! Hands down best risotto I've had, and my friend's duck ragu was incredible! The wine list could be overwhelming, but included wine from the region I stayed in in Italy by the glass! Everything from the bread and oil served to the ricotta cheesecake was impressive and delicious!
Pros: Best Italian I've had since Italy.
Cons: The staff were a bit pretentious, but our server was superb!

After enjoying its neighbor Fritti for years, we finally decided to go to Sotto Sotto, figuring all the hype must mean something. Sadly, we could hardly eat anything: surprisingly, for an Italian place, almost nothing was vegetarian or could even be made vegetarian (they told us the risottos were possible--well, of course they are!: we make them veg at home all the time--but that the chef wouldn't do it for us). Nice.

Met another couple for an important evening, which started with an argument with the hostess about seating. We were on time for our 7 PM reservation and even though the restaurant was largely empty, the hostess insisted on putting us at the worst table near the door and in the busiest aisle. We said we would wait in the bar for some of the other vacant tables to "open-up." Once seated at a previously unoccupied table, we found the waiter knew little about the non-descript wine list and had no recommendations about the menu selections. We soon learned why. Each one of us ordered a different entree and not one of them was a pleasant experience. The portions were very small, the presentation was cafeteria-like; and, above all else, the flavors fell far short of frozen dinners. The whole fish special that was to have been filleted at the table showed-up as a small pile of fish bones with some interlaced fish. When told it was unacceptable, the waiter sent a manager over to the table to say they were sorry (but they were not taking it off our bill). The four of us left a quarter of a thousand dollars poorer and still hungry. The only action that could improve this restaurant would be to close it.
Pros: Couldn't Name One
Cons: This place is open and other unsuspecting patrons will pay for this dining experience
