Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014The desserts employ the best seasonal fruits & the most rewarding combinations of flour, butter, & sugar (I especially love the ethereal cranberry soufflé with pink peppercorn ice cream). Read more
Fredrick Bishop BANovember 21, 2015I traversed to this incredible restaurant on #HalloweenNight and IT CHANGED MY LIFE! The #primebeef #tartare, #gulfcrab #fritter, #JamisonFarm #lamb, #seahive, and #pearcustard #tart were PERFECT!
Stephen BenjaminDecember 18, 2012The wine pairings really complete the tasting menu. It's a lot, but you can opt for a half portion. The vegetarian dishes are the best, IMHO, as many ingredients are sourced from their own farm.
Rick MartinApril 14, 2013One of the best restaurants in the country. A Top Chef at a Top restaurant. You don't just come here for dinner, you come here for an Event. Come prepared to be dined like you never have b4.- Jennifer Kjellgren ~ Nest Realty AtlantaFebruary 22, 2013Ahh Bacchanalia. La crème de la crème, the tip top, the highest standard restaurant you'll find in Atlanta. Expect to spend no less than a couple hundred for dinner for two.
ATL_HunterJuly 13, 2015Be sure to leave room for the fantastic cheese service at the end of your meal. In all of my global travels, I have never seen such an incredible selection.
Nikki NickersonJune 6, 2012Ok- it's fancy so go on a special night and have a long delightful four hour meal that is done by some of the best folks in the business. Professionalism at it's finest.
Cherie B.August 16, 2013The 'Capone' corner table is the best seat. It's super romantic and you can see everything. Everything on the menu is great and they have gluten free options.
The Wall Street JournalAugust 3, 2014Michelin-star quality in Atlanta; the service is impeccable. A little known fact: You can order a la carte from the four-course menu at the bar. Read more
- Nest Atlanta Real Estate GroupFebruary 4, 2014FIVE STARS for Bacchanalia - if they are already booked for Valentine's Day, go the following night. Hands down, one of the best (if not THE best) restaurants in Metro Atlanta.
- Creative Loafing AtlantaApril 25, 2013Sometimes a fritter is just a fritter, but the gulf crab fritter at Bacchanalia is one crusty crustacean that tops CL’s 100 dishes list. Read more
Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012Try the Prosciutto And Sweet Butter Sandwich - Only two slices of prosciutto and just butter. Very European. When you have the best ingredients, you don't need a ton of it.
EyalNovember 9, 2012Prix fixe seasonal menu, beautiful space, great plating/presentation. First two courses set the bar so high that the rest actually disappointed. Still high scores for the place.
Colin LeeDecember 27, 2016Good value prix fixe menu; service is very good. If you're used to NYC Michelin stars, I'd keep expectations lower
Margo MoskowitzAugust 1, 2013Might be one of the best meals of my life. Listen to whatever the server tells you and you will be VERY happy (and VERY full.)
Tasting TableApril 14, 2016This refined American eatery offers a modern spin on Southern cuisine, making for an elegant yet comfortable dining experience. Read more
AtlantaFebruary 4, 2014Long heralded as Atlanta’s favorite five-star restaurant, Bacchanalia features contemporary American cuisine using the freshest possible ingredients.
Atlanta Food & Wine FestivalMay 2, 2014Join the Bacchanalia Team at Atlanta Food & Wine Festival May 29 - June 1 for a treat your mouth will thank you for. Read more- Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012Try the Cucumber And Dill Salad - Creamy yogurt lightly acidic and Tangy dill finish the salad. Refreshing on a hot day like today.
AmateurConciergeOctober 24, 2010Best restaurant in ATL? So I heard, and tho I went a la carte at the bar, i don't doubt the claim. Gnudi, tuna crudo and the paramount crab fritter....silly.
GourmetLiveOctober 18, 2010A mature restaurant, but never a dowdy one. Bacchanalia has a southern aesthetic but by no means antiquarian, meaning country-fried sweetbreads with artichokes, and quail stuffed with mortadella.- Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012Try the Fritatta - Potato goat cheese fritatta. In a muffin size. Great to share and great way to control calories.
Nicole PAugust 27, 2011Don't forget to stop by star provisions bakery for complimentary baked goods on your way out (yummy cake balls and bread tonight)- Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012Try the Heirloom Tomatoes & Mozarella - Zebra tomato sandwich and mozzarella. Bread is crusty and soft.
KartklutzApril 5, 2017This location closed in March 2017. New location is 1460 Ellsworth Industrial Blvd., Atlanta, 30318.
Tom BarnesMay 1, 2010The Crab Fritter is still one of the five best things I have ever eaten. See hot home retail trends three years before they happen by browsing Star Provisions.
Chefs FeedAugust 5, 2014Richard Blais, chef of Flip Burger Boutique, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Selection of cheese. Read more- Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012Try the Fried Shrimp Po' Boy - Not greasy with spicy mustard and perfectly briny shrimp.
Ben AbneyApril 28, 2012The three best meals I've had in my life were in Paris, Manhattan, and at Bacchanalia.
ToryBurchApril 14, 2011An elegant seasonal menu where almost everything is grown or raised on the chef's own farm.
The Daily MealFebruary 22, 2011Would you like your tasting menu with or without truffles? While the price of magic isn't cheap, it's certainly worth it. Read more
Atlanta Food & Wine FestivalFebruary 28, 2012Chef Anne Quatrano and Linton Hopkins will be two of many great chefs attending this years Festival, May 30-June 2, 2013! Be there! Read more- Creative Loafing AtlantaJanuary 18, 2012Blue crab fritter is the OG of Atlanta fine-dining dishes. Read more
BravoNovember 11, 2010From appetizers to dessert - a culinary adventure. -Eric Wolitzky, Top Chef Just Desserts
USarmySFCretMarch 13, 2012Did you know that there is also an iSpy mission near here? Play iSpy on your iPhone to solve. @iSpy- Creative Loafing AtlantaNovember 29, 2011The $85 prix fixe buys nothing short of quality, but you can order cheaper at the bar. However, the the farm egg with wild mushrooms was way too salty.
