A very welcoming environment. The staff allowed us to relax and enjoy our meal. We were well attended too, a group of six, and they made sure to accommodate a shell fish allergy in our party. Very fresh food, nicely presented, prepared and seasoned. Portion sizes were reasonable. A great experience, I would return.
St. Cecilia’s is the place to be on any night, but a Friday night trip was my favorite. Imagine a large and airy space with light decor and conversations booming all around. This is St. Cecilia’s. The vibe is perfect for a first date, an anniversary, or just a nice night out with your girlfriends. Every table gets complimentary focaccia with a whipped ricotta cheese topped with strong olive oil and black pepper. If there were a preferred way to start a meal, this would be it.

The Sicilian in me died twice and went to heaven (both times) while eating here. The food is expertly executed and comes off high end while also paying a solid nod to your grandmother's cooking. Folks who think Italian food is about unlimited breadsticks will probably be turned off by their menu of fresh seafood and inventive dishes like my arugula fettuccine with squid...if you're looking to impress anyone: a date, business partner, your parents...take them here.
This Saint brings Miracles
St Cecilia is located in a beautiful 2-story space. Somehow it manages to feel high-end and down-to-earth at the same time.
Service is great with knowledgeable and friendly staff. I really appreciate a server who can help me negotiate a new menu.
Cocktails were interesting and delicious and the selections of wines by the glass were varied and unusual.
Food was delicious. We had read about a couple of plates in the “Creative Loafing” article about 100 dishes to eat in Atlanta. Those choices were spot on. The langostino was cold-smoked and a little unusual in that it was served in its more original soft, jelly-ish state. Nevertheless, the flavor was terrific. That also goes for the agnolotti.
My only complaint is that the servings were a bit on the smallish side. Nevertheless, a couple of cocktails and a glass of wine, nice bread, 3 appetizers, 3 primi pastas, one side, and one dessert were enough to feed the three of us.
Alerxander Busch Director of F&B Marriott. The atmosphere was great and the food was simply delightful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Apple Ravioli with the Lobster was perfect!!!!!!!!!
Fun spot. Although crowded and loud, St Cecilia had a great menu, good service and delivers on flavor. Fun people watching and high energy for a drink or dinner; not, however a great place for an intimate or romantic dinner.
Good but dissapointed. Everything tasted good here but overall I was disappointed. I just was expecting some new bold and inventive dishes. I felt everything was basic and unimaginative. Don't get me wrong, they have some talented kitchen staff here. Everything tasted good. I just thought it wasn't as great as a Ford Fry restaurant should be.
Geat Food. Great Food, Ambience.....Phenomenal Restaurant
Fantastic. It lived up to the hype. the chicken was phenominal.
Enjoyed a great work lunch here. The pasta was delicious and dessert was incredible. Our server was new but fantastic. I would absolutely return for a date or even solo meal. It’s a beautiful space and the windows give you great natural light.
Every dish was delectable! The quality of service is outstanding. I wanted to eat more but unfortunately hit my limit for the night. Definitely worth visiting again.
An exemplary experience all around, and Highly recommended! This may be my new favorite in Buckhead. Fresh food, great drinks, and attentive service. Give it a try, and you won't be disappointed.
I rarely give 5 stars, but St. Cecilia's was amazeballs in every way! I was there with family and all of us are eating gluten free. Their gf pasta was outstanding! Even the squid ink pasta was available gf! We ordered the squash and potatoes, truffle pasta, and the pasta wirh Italian sausage. I asked for a white wine recommendation and I loved it! Our waiter was wonderful, too! We also got the chocolate cheesecake... light, decadent, nothing like the block of solid chocolate you get at some places. St. Cecilia's is also beautiful. Make this a destination if you're in Atlanta!
Elegant dining atmosphere, top notch service, engaging wine list and quality food. Interesting variations on classic dishes. We had the swordfish and the lobster orzo - both strong choices, but the menu had many. We will certainly return.
This restaurant is literally a dream. The food is to die for and the atmosphere has been shot in probably some of your favorite movies! My favorite dish to get here is the Lumache. I also love their grilled octopus!

A magical Rehearsal Dinner evening! St Cecilia was stunning and our service team, Robbie, Natalie and Branden, were the BEST! They worked well with each other and they assisted all of our guests needs, whether it be gluten free, vegan or another canape or glass of wine. They even accommodated the flower girl, who is 11 months old, and she loved the "special" buttered pasta and ice cream! Naturally, compliments to the chef too! The food served was outstanding, from the swordfish skewers, insalata mista, the incredible agnolotti, with a choice of NY Strip or roasted chicken, ending with the orange olive oil pudding cake! Each course was a masterpiece! Finally this extraordinarily marvelous evening came together through St Cecilia's event planner, Amanda Tramontance. She is professional, knowledgeable and accessible, as well as approachable and honest. She is detail-oriented and with her impeccible active listening skills she created just the perfect atmosphere for this event as well as guiding the time-line. The impeccable service and the exceptional food, along with the behind the scenes guidance, created an evening to remember!
Thank you all at St Cecilia...CHEERS!!

So good that I had to come back for my birthday dinner... Came to St. Cecilia a few weeks ago with friends as it had been on my restaurant list for some time, left the establishment wanting to come back as soon as possible. The ambiance is wonderful, very open and warm, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a thoughtful touch to everything you see. Staff: always so helpful and ready to walk you through the entire menu at a moment's notice. One of the best things about the menu is that it's never the same! It changes monthly–didn't realise until I came back a second time and the only pasta I recognised was the Cacio e Pepe... You can taste how mindfully each dish was made, never a dull moment as the flavours are excellently paired and the ingredients are fresh. Even my parents (who are some of the harshest critics I've met) were unable to produce any criticisms except for that the Cacio was too rich for their taste. Fun music-themed cocktail menu! My sister is a passionate fan of the gnocco fritto and has asked me to recommend it. Order the burrata with their complimentary focaccia (to die for), and though I've only tried their pastas, I saw a delicious-looking scallop dish pass by me that I am determined to order next time. Your money will be well spent here, I guarantee it! Can't wait to go back again.
The food and service was amazing! The place was really relaxing and a great place to wind down and relax after a long day.
St. Cecilia has that little something special. The food is right on par with No. 246, making it one of if not the best Italian restaurants in Atlanta. The atmosphere here is grand, making it and 246 distinctly different and rememberable in terms atmosphere. It's our favorite restaurant in Buckhead.
