The Scene – This small but comfortable restaurant is Old Brooklyn in its ambiance, with ceiling fans, heavily framed "old masters-style" art, and operatic arias filling the air. It's a locals' favorite: Young couples hold hands across the tables, neighbors converse over pasta, and folks savor the dining values. Service is friendly, knowledgeable and able to guide patrons toward the better dishes. – – The Food – Everything comes swimming in sauce. Stuffed manicotti vanishes under a blanket of fairly average marinara. Flounder francese tastes fresh despite having been…

Great Pizza
by tjones198635 at Citysearch
We have tried them all. This is the best in town. This is as good as it gets. It is even cheaper than pizza hut and dominos.
- Pros: Great pizza, reasonable prices

Benedetti's is closing
by thomas_bosch at Citysearch
I was just finishing dinner last week at Benedetti's when the waiter informed me that the restaurant would be closing at the end of the year. The owners are turning it into a pizza place, so for all of you that will miss the garlic rolls and (my personal favorite) veal picatta, get in there before the 30th of December, their last day, for one last meal. Another old restaurant bites the dust.
- Pros: Great food, great service, great old place
- Cons: they're closing

darling old school Italian eatery
by rockstar79 at Citysearch
We ordered take out from Benedetti's since we just moved to Atlanta and had yet to unpack our plates, silverware, and other kitchen equipment. This was perfect Italian comfort food! It wasn't fancy by any means -- just plain and simple, very traditional. The garlic butter rolls were warm and soft. The salad was fresh and I really liked the herbed dressing and all the goodies that came on the salad -- black olives, etc. For my entree, I had the chicken picatta with fettucine alfredo. The picatta had WAY too much sauce on it, but now I know to order light on sauce. The accompanying capers were quite yummy. The fettucine was soooo good... creamy, thick and flavorful. It was decadent! The only drawback was that the sauce separated when I reheated it, revealing just how much butter was used in its creation. But, delectable either way. My husband had the chicken cacciatore which was also very flavorful. We got a buy one get one 1/2 price from campusfood dot com, so that made our whole takeout meal about $22. Great deal for so much food.
The restaurant itself was quite charming. Although located in a strip mall, it's got cute red pleather booths and was dimly lit with a great looking wine wall towards the back of the restaurant.
We'll definitely be back for more.
- Pros: intimate setting, traditional recipes, no fluff
- Cons: located in an ugly strip mall
