Trattoria One-41

Love this spot! First class food and customer service. Great for nice date or special occasion. Try the ossobuco.

Love the place! Me and my wife have been regulars at Trattoria 141, we introduced our friends and they are big fan of this place too.
— Their Marinara/​Cheese dip is to die for. The freshness of the sauce with just the right flavors from cheese complement it really well
— Gnocchi, amazing taste, just the right quantity
— Great cocktails! And a very tasteful wine collection.

Excellent service and beautifully seasoned food. Would recommend for a perfect evening. Calamari cooked as it should be cooked.

Do not die before eating here.
WOW!

This place has great food, great atmosphere and would’ve gotten 4 stars if it wasn’t for the lack of customer service. They have plenty of staff all standing around on their phones doing nothing. There were 5 people behind the bar but yet it took me pouring my boyfriend’s water into my cup for them to realize that I needed a refill. Random singing, inappropriate conversations heard throughout the restaurant and in the kitchen with also playing air instruments. I also noticed that the servers SHOVE their checkbook down the back of their pants and then they take it out after its been sitting in their sweaty pants, touch it then touch your food without wearing gloves or washing their hands. Oh, don’t let me forget that’s you how get your FREE bread as well. Can you imagine how disgusting and sweaty someone’s ass can be when they are working in the restaurant business? Well, you already know the answer because when you paid for your check, you were touching his sweaty ass!

Lobster was very very «soupy», Couldn’t even find the noodles. Everything else, was really great

I’m not a snobby eater by any means but be careful relying heavily on this restaurant’s Zagat rating. Wait staff is very young and slightly immature for this level of restaurant. Food was much more boring than I expected. I had the Beef Short Rib Canneloni and it tastes like bland shredded beef, wrapped in a crêpe (I suppose it was supposed to be fresh pasta), with a very small amount of cheese, floating in beef stock. If that was gorgonzola cheese in it, I would have never guessed. My wife got the lasagna, which was ok. The sauce had a fresh taste to it but again, very boring, not very rich.
Appetizers we had were the calamari and the caprese salad. The calamari received some praise in other reviews and it was fine. The sauce is tasty but really thin. Because this calamari is not fried and given squid is very chewy by nature, you can guess that it was like eating steamed calamari with a bowl of broth next to it. Caprese salad disappointed as well because of its lazy execution. It is a rather large tomato, cut in half, with two quarter-​sized medallions (both in width and thickness) of mozzarella, topped with a few sprigs of a miniature variety of basil, and a very light drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil surrounding it. Somewhat tasty except the tomato-​to-​everything else ratio is WAY off as I was left eating mostly a raw tomato as the rest of it was so meager.
My server was friendly but very uninvolved and inattentive. Never once did he ask how we were doing our if we liked our dinner. I can’t remember the last time I spent this level of money on a dinner and was so underwhelmed.
Maybe it was a busy night and they were overworked. However, there is no justification for it in a purported «fine dining» establishment.
I’m afraid I can’t recommend this restaurant to anyone else.

Best Italian food my wife and I have ever had. It’s simple, small and very intimate. We’ve been 4 times now (I think) and Belle has served us 3 out of those 4 and she’s the bomb. Very personable and outgoing. Doesn’t really matter what food you get, it’s all fresh and worth the money. Wine selection is great and worth getting the bottle if you think you and your significant other will have more than one glass. Whatever you don’t drink, they cork and let you take home. Had no idea that was allowed in GA! Reserve your seat on OpenTable, trust me. They get booked up quickly. Although families do dine here, I would say leave the kids at home and enjoy your spouse and/​or friends especially if it’s all couples. If there is one food to get every time you go, it’s the Italian sausage appetizer. Don’t think about it. Just do it.

Extremely disappointed in this restaurant. I had a reservation made several days ago, received a call just 2 hours before I was headed there for a birthday celebration for my wife with our family. They informed me that children under 14 were not welcome except on Sundays. They completely ruined our plans and certainly did not care about us. I do not agree with this policy but if this is the way they run their restaurant the least they could do is contact people who make reservations immediately so they can be aware of this policy. I will not be a customer.

Woohoo! For my 300^th review, I’ll review a restaurant that holds a special place in my heart: Trattoria One-​41. It’s where I came for one of my first dates.
ATMOSPHERE
The exterior of the restaurant is in a very unsuspecting plaza, but when you enter, there’s the clam, candlelit romantic ambiance of a nice Italian restaurant. The patrons are all very well dressed, and the servers treat you very well.
FOOD
First, let’s talk about their complimentary marinara sauce that comes with the bread. That stuff must be laced with crack because I am addicted. I could eat that all day long and give this place a 5 star still. Okay now onto the main dishes. I ordered the casarecce which looks like a rather simple pasta dish, but the flavors are phenomenal. It was one of the best pastas I’ve eaten in my life and would be happy ordering it again and again. My date ordered the braised beef short rib cannelloni and was absolutely smitten with it and still dreams about it.
OCCASION
I think Trattoria One-​41 definitely passes as a place for multiple occasions. It could be for a nice date night, a birthday celebration, catching up with a friend you haven’t seen in a while, and homecoming or prom dinner for the youngins. The possibilities are endless!
My date picked well, and I guess the restaurant choice wasn’t bad either ;) But I do think it says something that me and my boyfriend became official that night, so cheers to a great experience at Trattoria One-​41!

Great fabulous northern Italian food. In Love with some of the items on the menu. $$$/​4 pricewise, contemporary clean décor,
One of my favorite places to go when we’re in the mood for some high brow Italian food.
Have the calamari — A little different from what I had envisioned but it was still good it wasn’t Fried it was marinated basically, Orrechiette-​WOW I love this combo has that great ear shape pasta with a rabe I could eat this everyday yum!, Brazino –it was delicious. Shared a cheesecake– it was good not amazing. Cioccolata– ok, Angello– good, mushroom side– good but a little salty, Great great wine list.
Would definitely recommend and will definitely come back

This is my go to restaurant when I want to get dressed up and enjoy a fancy meal. The spaghetti and meatballs are to die for! The complimentary bread is great as well. I do wish they had soda so people under 21 (or people who just don’t drink alcohol) could enjoy something besides water.

Carpaccio & Polpo are recommended although the Polpo was a little too salted.
Pretty good wine selection.
Cape Sante — scallions were perfect, balsamic sauce is a thick/​rich taste (heads up for those who might not like that)
Orecchiette is a good blend of meat and veggies.
Cannelloni is good — looked more like an enchilada?
Overall pretty consistent as an Italian restaurant. Wish an ESPRESSO was offered post dinner instead of coffee and quite bad actually.
But if you are craving Italian food, go here.

One word SALTY. I ordered the pasta with chicken and asparagus. The pasta was bland but holy hell the chicken was salty AF. Husband ordered chicken in some kind of spinach sauce and that chicken was salty too!
I gave it 2 stars because the appetizers were actually decent and the complimentary bread and marinara sauce.
Service was ok, though we noticed other people who had arrived after we did get more attention and their food and drinks faster. We witness a waiter was having a 5 minute conversation with a customer about his life story while another customer was trying to get his attention.
Seating was inconvenient, seated on a table by the bar and the bar was packed so there was random people standing at our table so it was like they were having dinner with us. Except they weren’t eating.
Since the food was so salty I had a lot of water to drink to counter balance the salt so I went to the bathroom. It was very very very dark hallway. I had to feel the walls just to get to the bathroom which was hard to tell which one was woman’s and men’s until I saw a guy leaving one. So I waited for the other door since it was one commode bathroom. The hostess came out of the bathroom and turned off all the lights just as I was waiting outside the door.
Doubt we will be back.

Just simply outstanding, was invited by a long time friend to meet him there. He’s told me about the spaghetti and meatballs. They didn’t disappoint, health portion, and presented well.
The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The only down fall for me was the selection of beer. Had the local 420 by sweet water. A stellar choice, just wish they had more.
Tried the lemon chello, hopefully I spelled that right, great after dinner drink, however, don’t drink more than two, they can sneak up on you.
Great experience overall. Can’t wait to come back in a few weeks and try some of their specials.

/TL;DR
My first experience here was amazing. This time, not so much. I mean, it wasn’t inedible, but it wasn’t the hype I built up in my mind. Here’s the sad thing, it had been so long since I was here last that we ordered exactly the same dishes as before. Underwhelming.
/​ATMOSPHERE
Atmosphere would be why this place scraped by past a two-​star review. It’s really a great date night spot. Dimly lit, comfortable seating, semi-​private dining area away from the bar, etc.
/​FOOD
This is the disappointing part. While the bread service was great, the meal itself — too salty. The appetizers were good though. By the way, I don’t mean my dish. I mean every main entrée. Here’s what we ordered:
Caprese salad
Calamari
Braised short rib cannelloni
Pasta w/​Italian sausage
Pasta w/​chicken
Skirt steak
Whoever was running the kitchen that night seriously failed on checking the food on departure. I took my father there for Father’s Day… and he couldn’t finish his steak because of it. :o (I had him remove the bleu cheese. It was nearer to tolerable after that.
/​SERVICE
Friendly but nothing memorable. We screwed up our dinner reservation and requested a two-​seat table instead of four. They accommodated our change. After loafing around for 5 minutes, we finally got seated. Once we were back there, we couldn’t figure out why there was any drama. The place was empty. Not to mention, most tables stayed empty even after we left.
HOW TO READ MY REVIEWS:
1 Star — Does not approach edible. Enter at your own risk.
2 Stars — If I’m in the area, I’d pick something else.
3 Stars — I would stop by if I happen to be in the area.
4 Stars — I would pick this place out of other places nearby.
5 Stars — I would go out of my way to dine here.

Very very dark. They need to put lights by the bathroom– pretty sure someone has or will hurt themselves. It’s completely dark in that hallway.
The ambiance is great, besides it being very dark in the bathroom area. I enjoyed the art on the walls and the calm atmosphere. It was clean and orderly.
Food was delicious. We did family style and shared two entrees and two apps. For the apps, we had calamari and polpo salad. The calamari was grilled and topped with a slightly spicy, very citrusy lemony marinara sauce. Polpo was very tender, though was not as interesting taste-​wise as I had thought. Lots of vinegar and not much depth. But it was ok. For entrees, we had the Vongole pasta and gnocchi. Both were great. Gnocchi is pretty heavy– comes with a 4cheese sauce, so what do you expect. Vongole pasta was light and delicious and had plenty of flavor. For dessert, we got tiramisu. It was moist but in a liquid-​wet way. (Not like cake or brownies). It was still good though.
Service was good. It threw me off that there doesn’t seem to be any sort of dress code for the wait staff. They were all dressed differently in normal clothes and it was difficult to tell who worked there and who didnt. Which made it frustrating when we needed to ask for things (plates, silverware, etc) Bill was around $ 90 without tip.
Also, I think they target adults and want to minimize patronage of children because there’s a sign on the door that requests that no young children dine there. First time I’ve seen that anywhere.

This was one of the best Italian meals I’ve had in a long time. Wasn’t expecting much, judging solely by the façade and the hood. I was pleasantly surprised by the entire experience.
My friend and I started with the frico appetizer; a crispy, flat fried cheese, served with fresh tomato and olive oil. It was delicious.
For entrees, we shared the short rib cannelloni, which was out of this world. We also shared the garganelli with Italian sausage — the creamy tomato sauce is so good and the sausage is extra special.
We sat at the bar with Mike, who took great care of us and recommended some great wines to go with our meals.
Highly recommend this great restaurant — a perfect date spot or a cool place to grab dinner with friends.

Appetizer, drinks, entrée for two = right at $ 100.00
Salsiccia appetizer was amazing. All of the meaty and tomato and onion parts you like about Italian food, without any cheese or noodles getting in the way. Comes in a bowl, but could eat these spicy chunks of sausage with a fork.
Wife had lamb and it was perfectly prepared.
Definitely worth a visit if in the area.

Honestly almost drove right past this placed because I thought it was closed — just really dark windows. Came in on a Sunday night and was immediately seated by friendly hostesses at the bar. The bar tender, Tim, was really attentive and served me right away after introducing himself.
I try to avoid eating unnecessary amounts of bread, but OMG the house marinara with goat cheese ricotta and fresh bread could not be ignored. It had a spicy kick and I was glad to indulge. I’ll run a little extra tomorrow.
For my main dish, I selected the carpaccio salad. It was light, bright, acidic and fresh. Among the best.
For dessert I got the crème brûlée. When I asked to see the dessert menu, they just recited it to me — well, I wanted to see the prices. This was a little annoying. Maybe they don’t have a menu of it? Or it changes? I will forgive him since I got a nice sized pour of wine. I could smell it being fired up in the kitchen and was excited. It was a fairly deep dish so there was a lot of crème. After tasting it, I realized I probably didn’t need to have ordered it (hi again gym), but the blueberries were a nice touch. Nothing to die for, but a lot of the desserts sounded good.
Can’t say I sampled a lot, but I enjoyed what I did have.
I only docked one star because some other employee came over and kept chatting loudly. More like gossiping almost and just seemed kinda unprofessional in general. Otherwise, I’d definitely come back to try more and other people were really pleased around me too.
