Small cafe that serves excellent food. The owner is very kind and they make good recommendations. Their specialty seems to be pasta and pizza – I had the parmigiana and my friend had a lasagna, they were both great. They also have gelato and tiramisu & cake that you can either purchase to go or eat in the restaurant. I personally really liked their tiramisu. A good place to come with a small group of people (2-4).

I haven’t eating this good in a long time! Food was amazing and staff was courteous. I had the arancini and short rib ravioli. Definitely will be back to try everything else.

Chill, casual vibe for Italian. Wanted to carb load for an upcoming race. This was a delicious choice! I had the butternut squash ravioli with Nora sauce. Will note that the portion sizes were on the smaller side, but good size for me!

This place serves the freshest pasta I’ve ever had. Food is amazing, it blows me away every time I visit. Easily my favorite Italian restaurant in metro area. Customer service is excellent. Price is reasonable. I can’t recommend this place enough.

This is a small authentic family owned restaurant. I loved the eggplant parmigiana more than the fettuccine pasta. The fried pizza was so refreshing with the bread being light and airy. Not your typical pizza.

My husband and I ate dinner here because it was close to our hotel. It seemed like a tiny hole-in-the-wall place that wouldn’t normally be good (just from observing the outside) but the food was so good and for such an affordable price! The pasta is made in-house and you can tell. The fettuccine was amazing. I definitely recommend trying the “pasta bar.” We don’t live in GA but if we did we would certainly go back. Service was also great too – kind, friendly, and helpful with deciding. Garlic fries weren’t anything exciting but tasted fine (I would skip these if I could go back and get more pasta).

My husband and I adore this place. Every time we are in the area we have to stop by for some lunch. We’ve been here about 5 times and everything we try is phenomenal. This is hands down my favorite place to grab some pasta in Georgia. They never disappoint. 10/10 we recommend to everyone!!!

Five Stars! My husband and I flew in for a doctor’s appointment from out of state. We came across this wonderful gem while waiting to check into our hotel. Boun Fornello Cafe & Bottega has the best Italian food we have ever had. For my main meal I had the meatballs with a cup of pasta fagolii soup. The meatballs were superb! My husband had the chicken parmesan. The chicken parmesan was topped with fresh mozzarella which was everything! For dessert we had a cannoli and tiramisu. We couldn’t choice between the two so we had one of each! Every delicious item we tasted was incredible! My husband and I are huge foodies, and we’re absolutely blown away with the quality of food. The wonderful lady who helped us was very welcoming and went above and beyond. She was very kind. The only downfall is I wish we could enjoy this wonderful food in the state of Michigan where we live 😉 Thank you to the owners and Chef for creating such an experience.

Loved this place we ate there on 4/28/23, the 2 lady’s were amazing! The food was wonderful and light! The coffee was the closest I have had since in Spain which made the evening more remarkable. She treated my son like her own. Best Italian restaurant around and the creamest sweets! 10 out of 10!! 100% will go back!!

This little Italian place has become a regular hangout for me, it’s close work so I pop in for coffee and dessert often. The food is delicious, the meatballs are some of the best I’ve had and it all feels freshly made.
