• I visited Bacchanalia's on April 6,2002. The food tasted wonderful until I got home and suffered the worst case of food poisoning that I ever had. I missed two days of work, and I regret that I spent mega buck on what literally went down the toilet. Sincerely, Scott Downer Cincinnati, Ohio

• The food and service were excellent. Only a few disappointments, serivce felt rushed and portions (especially $10 extra for cheese) were on the small side.Wonderful experience for a special occasion.

• Who among us has not had many satifying meals? delicious meals, comforting meals?..Bacchanalia however was the most exquisite dining experience I have ever had. atmosphere was quiet and elegant. Wait staff was attentive without being intrusive. Each course was superb..each taste experience flowed seamlessly into the next..Martini's were awesome..Even with Fixed Pricing the cost was not for the faint of heart but worth it for the total experience. If I had to say one thing constructive it would be that with fixed pricing there should be at least one steak that was not sold at a `premium` above the fixed price....that seemed a little disingenuous. There were lots of little extra that showed up at our table. soup, truffles, palate cleansers that really made you feel special. Since we at late on Monday there were tables available and we had the bonus of choosing free bread from the bakery that was closing for the night...If you are ready to pay and want the ultimate dining experiece Bacchanalia is the Place !!!

• Just incredible! A four-course, fixed price dinner is served, with each course absolute magic. What a superb mixture of tastes! You'll leave with your wallet quite a bit lighter, but if you truly value fine cuisine, you'll feel the money was well spent. Wow.

• The new location of Bacchanalia is just gorgeous. It's pris fixe with a $$$$ wine list. Never go without a reservation! The food is pretty incredible.

• Excellent, one of the very best in Atlanta. Each course was scrumptious. It is very hard to get reservations without planning far in advance.

• The food is incredible and the atmosphere is relaxed, friendly and romantic.I never feel out of place here. The only downside is that it's difficult to get last minute reservations.

• This is hands down the best restaurant in Atlanta. The food is orgasmic. Alice Waters has nothing on you Anne Quatrano. Amazingly superb in every way.

• The worst dining experience I ever had. Foie Gras Terrine/ Florida Strawberries/ Marcona Almonds (Presentation was a slab of foie gras with nothing to accompany it. The foie gras had a bitter taste to it and I made mention of this but no word from the Chef. Paula Lambert’s Crescenza / Local Strawberries / Macerated strawberries / Balsamic Vinegar (Presentation was 2 triangular pieces of cheese about the size of a man's thumb nail and about a quarter inch thick. Same strawberries from the foie gras which had either been doused in some sort of unpleasant tasting liquor or had been left in the refrigerator for days until they created their own alcohol and became naturally marinated...again they had a bitter taste) Johnson Family Local / Spring Lamb Tasting / Slow Poached Fennel / Fennel-Green Garlic Puree (The trio of lamb consisted of a lamb sausage patty about the size of a 50 cent piece, 2 small Vienna sausage size fingerlings meat pieces and a larger size piece of lamb. The sausage patty lacked any unique taste whatsoever and felt it was just a greasy as a a Bob Evans pork sausage patty. The fingerling pieces had a pleasant taste but were not outstanding. The larger piece of lamb had a very tough gristle/membrane skin which made it hard to remove the meat from it. I ended up having to scrud

• A lovely, if not transcendent, experience. I've always had a quibble with the name, though: dining here is hardly a bacchanal. It's a little too cool and calm to be dionysian -- maybe it should be called `Apollonia.`

• One of the best falafels in town. Actually the best.

• Really awesome sandwiches

  by Ben

  
  

• The choices of sandwiches, salads, even a daily blue-plate special, are endlessly satisfying. Enjoy the fried chicken, frittatas, and all manner of Southern sides. 2013 Best of Atlanta Critics pick.

• The cornmeal crusted catfish sandwich is flavorful and filling!

  by Michele A.

  
  

• I had the shrimp po boy and had to take a 2 hour nap afterwards. It was worth it though.

  by Matthew L.

  
  

• My preferred bread in Atlanta. You have to try the meringues too.

  by gui a.

  
  

• There are two lines here. One for bakery facing the front and one for deli facing the right, side entrance.

  by Cody M.

  
  

• If the lunch special is the meatball sandwich, get it.

  by Ashish A.

  
  

• Go with lots of time to explore this artsy-foodie compound. A great place to buy gifts.

  by Mary M.

  
  

• One of Atlanta's best kept secrets. The baguette bread is the best in Atlanta. They have great desserts too. Favorite lunch spot and gourmet market.

• Fresh, house-made baguette smeared with sweet, creamy butter, and piled with prosciutto and shaved Parmesan is sweet, simple, and one of CL's 100 Best Dishes.

  by Creative Loafing Atlanta

  
  

• The deli is great for good gourmet sandwiches with a twist. The sides are good as well. Their homemade hot sauce is a must try.

  by Henri H.

  
  

• Lots of meat and cheese

  by Jamie M.

  
  

• Best Mac and Cheese I have ever had.....

  by Summer R.

  
  

• Here you can find the kind of cured meats, seafood and produce that personal chefs use to cook for the rich and famous. Or you can just get a really good prosciutto sandwich.

• Amazing!!!

  by Jackie H.

  
  

• Prix 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.

• Look for our Black Coffee pints in the freezer made with Batdorf & Bronson coffee.

• Latest obsession: Prosciutto & Parm sandwich. But I ask them to add Dijon mustard. Try it this way, it'll be your new favorite!

  by Sarah-Ann S.

• Omg the brownie!!!!

  by Dee

  
  

• If you want a quick lunch call ahead. Line always painfully slow.

  by Beth B.

  
  

• Try the Heirloom Tomatoes & Mozarella - Zebra tomato sandwich and mozzarella. Bread is crusty and soft. (via @Foodspotting)

  by Alexis H.

  
  

• Try 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. (via @Foodspotting)

  by Alexis H.

  
  

• Try the Fried Shrimp Po' Boy - Not greasy with spicy mustard and perfectly briny shrimp. (via @Foodspotting)

  by Alexis H.

  
  

• Try the Fritatta - Potato goat cheese fritatta. In a muffin size. Great to share and great way to control calories. (via @Foodspotting)

  by Alexis H.

• the chocolate cake is a great note to end on

  by Zach S.

  
  

• Best Reuben on the planet

  by Geoff

  
  

• Great place to stop and salivate. Fill your little basket up with a bunch of stuff you don't need but dearly want. Killer sandwiches, cheeses, and procured nik naks.

  by Nikki N.

  
  

• Ok- 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.

  by Nikki N.

  
  

• Falafel sandwich is to die for. Fresh and very unique flavors.

  by Simona C.

  
  

• The shrimp po'boy is one of Star's more popular to-go items. Pair it with a bag of Zapp's Gumbo Chips and a glass of Victorian Lemonade.

  by Travel + Leisure

  
  

• the falafel sandwich is one of atlanta's best kept secrets. substitute the pita bread for an onion or black pepper roll to reach nirvana.

  by sarevie m.

  
  

• Get the po boy sandwich.

• Brown sugar shortbread!

  by Jenifer K.

  
  

• The Shrimp po'boy is made on a soft, toasted hoagie roll instead of NOLA's mandatory French-style bread.

  by Creative Loafing Atlanta

  
  

• Star Provisions isn't quite famous for its fried chicken, but it's a good option when you're there, especially for the value. A combo of breast, thigh, and leg will set you back about $6.50

• Never order a cheese tray to go. I had to wait 20 minutes for it after they misplaced my order.

• Pre-made sandwiches only on the weekends :(

• Reminds me a little of Foster's Market in Durham. Nice place to grab lunch and sit outside.

• Blue crab fritter is the OG of Atlanta fine-dining dishes.

• Visit the baked goods counter for a variety of different sweets. The brownies are made to perfection. Must try!

• For lunch: the shrimp po boy or the Reuben

  by Girish J.

  
  

• One of my favorite lunch places. In a hurry? You can grab a Prosciutto and Parmesan baguette and skip the line.

  by Beth B.

  
  

• The $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.

• Great lime corn meal cookies!

  by J Patrick M.

  
  

• Try the pimiento cheese in the cheese shop and excellent cupcakes in the bakery. Also love the s'mores and shrimp po boy sandwich.

• The prices at this gourmet boutique may deter you, but the sandwiches – especially the unorthodox Reuben and shrimp po’boy – offer big flavor for an affordable price. [Eater 38 Member]

• An elegant seasonal menu where almost everything is grown or raised on the chef's own farm.

  by ToryBurch

  
  

• Would you like your tasting menu with or without truffles? While the price of magic isn't cheap, it's certainly worth it.

• Best 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.

  by Zubin

  
  

• A 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.
