Il Giallo Osteria & Bar

Friday, October 16, 2015

The team from Veni, Vidi, Vici including executive chef Jamie Adams and general manager Leonardo Moura are opening up Il Giallo off of Roswell Rd. in Sandy Springs. The coastal Italian cuisine will put an emphasis on freshly made pasta during service at the front of house so everyone can see. I got the opportunity to check out the new digs as finishing touches were being made. The large lounge and bar area is filled with posh furniture, the main dining area is filled with tables that makes one feel as if they were sitting in an osteria in Italy and there is even a large family dining table sitting front and center where I can only assume the pasta will be made. Artwork decorates the whole restaurant but one of my favorites is a large map of Italy that gives a visual tour of food from the different regions of the country. Definitely can’t wait to try some of the dishes that are going to bring a taste of Italy to Sandy Springs!
