“ We enjoyed a valentines dinner here! Definitely get the focaccia bread and calamari-you won’t regret it. The tiramisu was amazing too. ”
“ Food: Spectacular. Service: Fantastic. Atmosphere: Wonderful. This is an exceptional neighborhood Italian restaurant. I’ve had pasta all over Atlanta and the pasta here beats everyone else even the higher priced restaurants. The noodles are actually hand made and you can tell. They have a specials menu that changes all the time and the specials are always good! The pizzas are the thin Italian pizzas which are just delicious. For dessert always order the Bombolini! Highly highly recommend! ”

“ We went to Il Giallo to celebrate our anniversary and had an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The service was excellent—prompt, friendly, and thoughtful. Our waitress was warm and attentive, checking in just the right amount to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. The atmosphere was cozy and romantic, perfect for a special night. We ordered the gnocchi, a fresh salad, garlicky spinach, and the garlic focaccia—all of which arrived promptly and were bursting with flavor. The gnocchi, in particular, was incredible—soft, pillowy, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious, like little clouds of heaven. To top it all off, the restaurant surprised us with a complimentary dessert and a sweet anniversary card, which made the night feel even more special. Il Giallo is a true gem—highly recommended for a memorable and delicious dining experience! ”
“ I was very pleasantly surprised by the friendly service and not too noisy atmosphere. The food options are limited but what's available is good choices. The calamari and shrimp appetizers were excellent. The freshly made pasta with marinara sauce was great. We were celebrating a birthday and the chocolate gelato was complimentary. I'll definitely be back. ”
“ Came here with my 10 year old son while visiting Atlanta. We enjoyed every bite of food we ate. We had the meatball appetizer which my son said were the best meatballs he’s ever had in his life! I ordered the salmon with the sweet potato gnocchi that were DIVINE. My son got the roasted chicken which was also amazing as I was eating from his plate too LOL. This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life, hands down. Service and atmosphere was as amazing as the food. 10/10 recommend. ”
