There was a time when dinner out meant pin curls and strong Manhattans. The music was up and the lights were low and the maître d’ had your table waiting. The Betty is that kind of place. Inspired by mid-century American supper clubs, The Betty pays tribute to the continental menus of yesteryear. But while the dishes may sound comfortingly familiar, Chef Thomas’s approach is decidedly 21st century. Pair your entrée with a timeless cocktail, a selection from our robust wine list or an Atlanta-crafted beer.

First time at this restaurant. The service was outstanding! The food was awesome. The steak au poivre was cooked medium rare and the peppercorn was very good. We had soup a L’ognion, the mushroom tartine and the lamb meatballs. All plates were very tasteful. We will be back!! Only observation: some cushions for the sofa and armchairs will help for a more confortable sitting as one is to deep and the other too low.

For appetizers, the tuna tartare, beef ravioli & beet salad were outstanding. I enjoyed the shaken beef & garlic noodles. My family had the duck & chicken, they loved it. Great ambience although a bit pricey. They validate parking.

Except for valet (upon arrival, he just looked at us, zero greeting or communication...), our experience was excellent all around. Caviar service, veal mousse, carpaccio, gnocchi, lobster pasta, clam pasta, and halibut. Clam pasta was just okay. Everything else was perfect. Thank you, La Grotta.
