Fia Restaurant

Worth the Wait. There's a wait for every part, but it is worth it. Let me explain... The food is absolutely amazing. Chef has curated and executed an amazing menu. The atmosphere is top notch. The food..OMG. It was one of the best culinary experiences I've had in Atlanta and worth the price. Presentation, quantity, and quality- 20 out of 10. EVERY ITEM was amazing, from appetizer to entree, and I mean that. You cannot go wrong. Now, the one major issue.... We dined for a special occasion on a Friday night. Strangely, the restaurant ran a short staff from the valet to the bartender to the wait staff to the kitchen. The result was that there was about a 20 minute wait for drinks after ordered. The appetizers came shortly shortly thereafter. It took another 30 to 40 minutes for the entrees to arrive. In all, it took about an hour from order to fork in mouth with the entrees. Snack before you go because, based on our experience, it will take a while. That being said, the food is absolutely worth the wait. I just wish the wait was not long.

I was staying at the hotel and having this restaurant in there was an amazing surprise. The fish was amazing and also the sides, I never tried a hot hummus but it was delicious. Staff was very friendly too!

Came here hoping to get last minute reservation but the tables were full. We opted for the bar. I started with the butter pecan old fashioned which was delicious. For an appetizer we had we shrimp. For entree I had the Duck special and my friend had the burger. I'd come back again for everything. Really good food and great atmosphere.

Truly remarkable dining experience. The center cut filet was the best steak we’ve ever tasted. The gnocchi, ciabatta, and tomahawk pork chop were to die for. My ONLY gripe is that the chocolate torte is from Alons rather than made in house but was not advertised as such. Not that it was not great, as it was, but I would have avoided since I can go to Alons anytime and get it for half the price. That being said, it was one of my few best dining experiences in the city.

Fia is outstanding! Having stayed at the Burgess multiple times per year, I have enjoyed the dining room, patio and room service on several occasions. Pleased to share that every order has been amazing and the service impeccable. Attached are a few pictures from recent orders. The pork chop is my favorite!

The reviews are spot on for this restaurant. The food is amazing. Service is outstanding. Beautiful decor. I love that you can see everything being cooked in the kitchen. The Burgess Hotel is a beautiful boutique hotel that offers the perfect setting for Fia. We started with the grilled meatballs. So flavorful and not too heavy, We both ended up ordering the scallops with the risotto and shared the brussel sprouts. Everything was seasoned perfectly and I loved the presentation with the micro greens that add a nice texture to the meal. Another gem in Atlanta that is a must. I have to reiterate that the entire staff at the hotel, bar, and Fia a wonderful. Impeccable service and lots of smiling faces made the night even more enjoyable.

Mark at the bar is just to put it simple - world class. I’ve sat down at bars with bartenders at some of the most prestigious restaurants all over the world, and Mark is one of the very best if not the best. The atmosphere is beautiful, all of the staff is very nice, and it’s a beautiful place to come as a local for an upscale and balanced restaurant and cocktail experience. 12/10 would recommend if you’ve been thinking about it.

Food was simply amazing. 5 Stars for the Food. The pork belly and bone in short rib were perfect. The service was ok but our server lacked any type of energy, barely spoke to us, and spent a lot of time texting on her phone. Sad because the food here is great. The atmosphere depends on the folks serving your food. Everything else was great sadly. Would love to give this place 5 Stars but service matters. I watched my $16 drink sit at the bar with the ice melting. I had to ask our server, "any recommendations?" "Are you always this silent?"

OMG, Fia is by far Atlanta's best kept secret. We stumbled upon this restaurant last year after a neighboring restaurant turned my husband around for having on designer skippers, I finished my wine and he secured us a table at Fia. We've dined here 1-2x per month, whether it's pre-thanksgiving, the night before NYE, birthdays, Father's Day, celebrating big or small wins...you name it! I can't lie, the spicy sausage spaghetti is my FAVORITE....but everything on the menu slaps! No one is making fennel and vidalia anion soup! Try the lamb, try the short ribs, try the giant prawn coconut curry, try the faroe island salmon...when you run out of suggestions, invite me and I'll tell you what else you should try! Oh and don't forget to ask for Taylor!

The food was delicious, the staff were amazing and the place was very cozy and classy. They will work with your dietary restrictions.m if you have any. The vidalia onion and fennel soup was to die for. I have never had a soup so creamy and flavorful. The hummus is grilled which is different from any kind of hummus you can get. The sweet grilled onion that is mixed with the garbanzo beans make a unique new dish and we loved it!

Sometimes you don't want to give a five-star review, because then I would not be able to get in when I wanted. Fia is one of those restaurants. Fia is located in the lobby of the Burchess Hotel in the Chastain are of Atlanta. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. The bar are is nice as well. We had John as our server and he was excellent. This is the second time we went to Fia in a month and we were extremely satisfied with our food. We had Bronzino with Spaghetti. Typical Friday night dish. Finished off with a strawberry shortcake dessert and great wine. This place is a keeper. Hopefully, y'all don't go . Great find, all kidding aside.

I give Fia Restaurant 4.5 stars rounded up to 5. This restaurant lived up to the hype, for the most part. For a nice night out in Buckhead, this place fits the bill. The cuisine is New American and Mediterranean. Fia is pronounced "fee-uh." It's Italian for flickering flame or little fire. The restaurant opened in December 2019 inside the Burgess Hotel, a boutique hotel. The hotel's co-owner and executive chef is named Burges Jokhi. Burgess and Burges. Coincidence? Burges owns the place with his partner, Freny Jokhi. The hotel bar, Mr B Bar, was named after Freny's dad, Keki Bunshah. The Burgess used to be a Wingate by Wyndham. Initially, the Burgess was part of Wyndham's Trademark Collection. Now, it's in Marriott's Tribute Portfolio. Hotel restaurants are notoriously hit or miss. I'm happy to report Fia is one of the best hotel restaurants I've dined at in metro Atlanta and one of the better ones anywhere. Fia was named a Yelp Top 100 US Restaurant in 2022 (#32). Reservations are recommended. It was packed during our Saturday night visit. Those without a reservation either had to sit "outside" at the bar or wait until one of the last seatings of the night. That night, I noticed a walk-in party return to be seated around 9pm. Book your reservation using OpenTable and earn dining points which can be used to redeem restaurant discounts, Amazon gift cards, hotel stays, and more. Free self-parking is available on the sides and back of the hotel. For a hotel of this "caliber," the parking did strike us as a bit sketch at night. And getting from the parking lot to the front of the hotel involved walking onto the driveway and into traffic. Not the safest. The restaurant and hotel are gorgeous. It's a distinct, eclectic mix of both traditional and modern design, decorated with art from different cultures. It sounds gaudy, but they managed to pull it off. The international flair reminds me of The Consulate restaurant in Midtown. Fia's dining room is cozy and offers a variety of tables and seating -- white tablecloth, wood and stone surfaces, booths, banquettes, and armchairs. There's also an outdoor patio. During our dinner visit, the drink menu featured over a dozen cocktails from Mr B Bar plus wine and bottled and canned beer. The food menu had many salads and apps (e.g., Warm Goat Cheese & Tomato Tartlet, Grilled Giant Prawn), a handful of entrees (e.g., Braised Lamb Shank), several woodfired items (e.g., A5 Wagyu Ribeye, Bell & Evans Moroccan Chicken), and large sides. Here's what three of us had: Specialty Cocktails * Coconut Pecan Old Fashioned ($17) - coconut-washed bourbon, spiced pecan demerara, bitters * "Dirty" Martini ($18) - vodka, Italian vermouth, olives * Base Camp ($17) - vodka, rose nectar, grapefruit Wines by the Glass * Red / Cabernet ($17) - Katherine, Alexander Valley, CA 2021 Salads & Appetizers * Beets & Burrata ($18) - sherry balsamic vinaigrette, basil oil, pickled onion, toasted pistachios * Pan-Seared Potato Gnocchi ($19) - beurre monte, white truffle, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese * Pork Belly ($17) - Jack and Coke glaze, heirloom grits * Charred Octopus ($19) - roasted pepper, artichoke, olives, capers, lemon, olive oil * Grilled Ciabatta ($7) - tomato-rubbed, chimichurri Entree * Pan-Seared New England Scallops ($37) - saffron risotto, artichoke, oven-roasted tomato, basil From the Fia Woodfired Grill * 8 oz Center-Cut Filet ($49) - cognac peppercorn sauce * Whole Branzino ($42) - fennel-citrus salad Shareable Side * Crispy Brussels Sprouts ($13) - pear gastrique Dessert * Bananas Foster ($15) - vanilla gelato Everything was excellent, both in taste and presentation. The plating was beautiful. Each dish was a work of art. The attention to detail was evident. The tableware was unique and artistic, some with colorful floral patterns. My favorites dishes were the Pan-Seared Potato Gnocchi, Pork Belly, and Pan-Seared New England Scallops. Between the mushrooms and cheese, the gnocchi dish was packed with umami. Buttery too, but not excessive. And the gnocchi had perfect texture. The quality of the pork belly was terrific. The meat and grits were delicious. The scallops were fresh and plump -- among the best I've had in recent memory. Together with the risotto and veggies, the dish was really tasty. If you like burrata and octopus, I recommend both the Beets & Burrata and Charred Octopus appetizers. They didn't disappoint. The beets were well seasoned. The octopus was tender and flavorful. The Grilled Ciabatta turned out to be a great recommendation from our server. It worked better as a side than an app. The Whole Branzino was well executed and fileted to have barely any bones, which I appreciated -- another wonderful dish. The Bananas Foster wasn't finished tableside, but was still fantastic. The drinks were superb as well. I enjoyed the "Dirty" Martini in particular and I usually don't like martinis. Our server Zoe S was amazing. She was very friendly and attentive.

Fia is more than the restaurant located in Buckhead's Burgess Hotel; it celebrates Mediterranean cuisine featuring wood-fire grilled specialties. Fia is open daily for breakfast and dinner. The hotel is located near the intersection of Piedmont and Roswell Roads and is MARTA-accessible via the 5 bus. I love the eclectic yet comfortable vibe of the Burgess Hotel, so I visit the hotel weekly to take in the artwork while working, enjoy a glass of wine, and eat some of the best dishes in Atlanta. The main area feels like home and actually has a library and formal dining room. The bar and restaurant also have a cozy, intimate atmosphere where you feel like you are among friends. I visit regularly, in part because of the kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable staff that work at the Burgess. Their customer service is consistent, whether it is Monday afternoon or Friday evening. The Butternut Squash Soup is so rich, creamy, with the bacon and pecans providing just the right texture. It is literally a warm hug and can be enjoyed on even the hottest day of the year. The Gnocchi stock is delicious. I do not enjoy mushrooms; however, I enjoy the jus. The gnocchi is soft and pillowy. I will note that there is a lot of mushroom in this dish (even if you ask for the minimal). The creaminess of the poached egg in the Jumbo Asparagus balances well with the slight tang of the lemon butter and the saltiness of the parmesan cheese and pork. The asparagus is perfectly crispy. I order this every time I eat at Fia. The Pork Belly is another must-order. The richness of the protein balances some of the creamiest grits in Atlanta. The microgreens are a nice addition, as they cut through the sweetness of the Jack and Coke glaze on the pork belly. The Spicy Pork Sausage Spaghetti is flavorful, and the Calabrian chilis provide a nice kick of spice. I am a Parmesan cheese fan, so I tend to ask to amp up the spice and cheese. The Mr. B. Burger is good, but it was not memorable for the price. I wanted more of the bacon tomato jam, but I appreciated the pickled onions as they provided nice acidity. The fries are tasty with the parmesan shavings and house-made ketchup.specialties

My experience at Fia last night left much to be desired. I've been eager to try this restaurant ever since I had a business meeting in a conference room at the Burgess Hotel, where Fia is located. The decor is undoubtedly unique and eclectic, creating a vibrant atmosphere that I thoroughly enjoyed. The clientele seemed to be primarily composed of customers in their 50s and up, mostly couples on dates with a few families sprinkled in. While I wanted to love this place, I left feeling underwhelmed, and I doubt I'll return for anything other than cocktails. Unfortunately, the service fell short of expectations. While our server was friendly, they seemed more like someone who simply delivered our food rather than a waiter who actively checked on us throughout the meal. Considering the upscale price point and ambiance of the restaurant, I expected a higher level of attentiveness. As for the food, it was a mixed bag. The meatballs were tender but overly curry-forward for my taste, leaving a lingering spice on my palate. The prawn was disappointingly overcooked and chewy, although it was accompanied by a refreshing citrus salad. The octopus, prepared sous vide, was surprisingly chewy and overcooked, and the excessive amount of capers on the plate was overwhelming. On a positive note, the scallops were perfectly cooked and paired well with the risotto, and the broccolini side was grilled to perfection and absolutely delicious. Overall, while Fia's ambiance and cocktails may warrant a return visit, the disappointing service and inconsistent food quality make it hard to justify dining there again.

Fia is amazing. Starting with the ambience: from the wood burning stoves in the background to the unique decor that was relaxing and set the tone. Only downside was since it was fairly dark, photos were difficult to capture the food in its best light. Now onto the food, the menu had so many unique appetizers and entrees, that it was hard to choose. So, we didn't. Instead we ordered a number of starters and sides to share. And each picked a different entree so we could try each others too. The best ones: the hummus takes top spot (very unique as it was warm and had "stuff" in it - not exactly sure of the details but it was incredible). Next up - The octopus was very tasty. Those who had the beets and burrata loved it and the tomato tart with warm goat cheese was delicious as well. For short ribs, pork chop and the duck with blackberry sauce and pieces of pear and more (that was my favorite) all got rave reviews. Additionally the service was very good and the meal very well paced. I'd highly recommend Fia and would come back when visiting Atlanta.

Came to Fia for valentines and I enjoyed it! At first I was worried that parking wouldn't be great because it's located in a hotel, but there is plenty of parking for restaurant guests in the back of The Burgess. The restaurant itself is pretty open to the rest of the hotel and I LOVED the decor there, especially the back museum bookstore like room! We sat close to the bar and I definitely will be back there for a night out! We started with a shared Caesar salad and their pork belly and grits app. Although I don't like grits, the pork belly sauce fit perfectly with the grits and it was my fav thing that I had all night! For my main I had the lamb shank and got to try their spaghetti. Both dishes were great, but unfortunately the menu didn't mention cilantro all over the rice of the lamb shank so I had to do a lot of eating around it lol. The meat itself was super tender and the sauce was great. We ended the night with the key lime tart which was pretty good too. Unfortunately the service was awful as it seemed like they were super understaffed, but I decided to not take off a star for that as our waiter was super apologetic and ended up giving us my drink for free. That was a nice gesture, but I would have preferred better service from such a nice establishment in the first place! Hopefully that was just an off day for them, because I'd love to come back for another nice dinner.

What a gem of a find! My girlfriends and I decided to have dinner at Fia before a comedy show at Punchline. We found Fia based on all the great reviews and decided to try it out -- so, so glad we did! Fia is located on the first floor of The Burgess hotel. There's ample free parking - another plus of dining here! Both the hotel and Fia are very classy - I love the understated but fancy decor, the elegant feel and overall ambiance. I feel Fia could be fitting for a variety of occasions: date night, business meal, girls' night out. Our server was warm, friendly, and kind to us throughout the entire meal, offering suggestions on the best things to order. Based on some of his recommendations, we ordered the following: - Pan Seared Potato Gnocchi: Beurre Monte, White Truffle, Thyme, Parmesan - Charred Octopus: Roasted Red Pepper, Artichoke, Olives, Capers, Lemon, Olive Oil - Whole Branzino: Fennel-Citrus Salad Everything we ordered was incredibly delicious! I wish I could pick a favorite between the gnocchi and the branzino, but I truly can't, so I suggest you order both. Pro tip: order extra bread to soak up some of that delectable gnocchi sauce. Both the gnocchi and branzino had powerful, unique flavors that tasted expertly crafted and truly made for an amazing experience. Fia is a restaurant that takes itself seriously - from the versatile but elegant ambiance, to the knowledgeable service to the incredibly thoughtful dishes - my entire dining experience was A++.

This place is excellent for its food choices. I came for a work dinner and I was pleasantly surprised by the selections. They have an extensive wine list and 10+ cocktails. The appetizer list was great and try the mushroom gnocchi and grilled watermelon salad and pork belly. For entrees I tried the lamb shank slow cook to perfection in Indian curry spices. The dessert choice is underwhelming except Maybe the goat cheese Panna cotta that is great if you don't like you dessert too sweet. Server was fantastic. Ambience a bit noisy as it's in a hotel lobby. Worth a try for sure !!

Fia was a delight plain and simple. 100% score all the way, from ambiance, to service, to the food. Delightful. We got the gnocchi, pork belly, grilled ciabatta (It's $7, but get it. Trust me) and braised Lamb leg. Everything was absolutely amazing, the flavors were wonderful and my mouth is watering just typing about it a day later. Valet is complimentary - prices are not completely out of this world, this is a great place for an celebratory dinner. I can't even say all that much, I enjoyed every single thing about this experience and will be back for sure.

The Food was great with a pleasant Ambiance. Fia is a Mediterranean restaurant that focuses on Herbs & spices some dishes wood-fire grilled. My Favorite starter is the Beets & Burrata paired with Pan Seared Potato Gnocchi. Delicious! Service was okay, decent cocktail menu & overall my experience was good. Love the location.

This restaurant is absolutely fantastic. The ambiance, the service, the cocktail offerings, and the food are superb. Not to mention that valet parking is complimentary--always a good way to start a night. We had the gnocchi, brussel sprouts, pork belly, salmon, and lamb thigh. The pork belly, gnocchi, and lamb were highlights but everything was delicious. The food was accompanied by martinis and their coconut pecan old fashioned. I know the latter probably sounds like blasphemy to purists but I was pleased to discover that the coconut was subtle and didn't overwhelm the drink. I would gladly come back here and recommend it highly.

Amazing pork belly. I think about it every night. I also loved the Brussels sprouts and tentacles and the steak was awesome.

We came here for a celebratory dinner! SO delicious! The potato gnocchi appetizer is a must. For entrees I got the fettuccine Alfredo (special on the menu) and my partner had the pork chop. He said it's the best pork chop he's ever had. Pretty good espresso martini; it was quiet and classy inside. There is a dress code but it's nothing crazy, just call and check before hand! I would definitely recommend fia for nice dining experience!

It was awesome!!! The food, the ambiance, and the service, everything was amazing!! It was definitely a memorable date night for us

Went for a birthday celebration and got the Moroccan chicken, meatballs and cosmos. It was fantastic, I loved my meal! Will definitely be back!

Excellent front staff Wonderful wait staff Beautiful decor /ambiance The food was excellent- Fresh and beautiful presentation Great dtinks Lovely bar area Restaurant located in hotel lobby. Plenty of parking Great for large groups Great for lovely intimate dinner. Request white line tables over booth- Lovelier experience

This is a nice hidden gem in Buckhead. It's inside of the burgess hotel and has a beautiful aesthetic. The booths are a luxurious velvet and it has beautiful light fixtures. Really nice for a romantic evening. Parking is free!!! My friend and I arrived on time for a 5:30 reservation I could have sworn I made on open table but then realized that I never got a confirmation for it after the hostess told me didn't see one. I searched multiple places before my friend finally asked how long the wait would be and they had to think about it even though the dining room was totally empty as they had just opened. They sat us shortly after. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable about the menu. He recommended the gnocchi and the ciabatta bread, which we ended up ordering and it was delightful! It came with mushrooms in a butter sauce. I normally don't care for mushrooms but these were so tasty. I enjoyed my meal with a glass of the Chianti, i liked it. My friend then ordered the Moroccan chicken and I ordered the whole branzino with the head removed and filleted. We got Brussels sprouts and they were perfectly roasted and seasoned. The Moroccan chicken had a very unique flavor, I thought it was decent, but not my taste. The branzino was cooked perfectly, but wasn't super flavorful. It comes with a fennel citrus salad that I thought sounded good until it came out in a flat leaf parsley salad...parsley is way too strong of a flavor to pair with fennel and orange in my opinion. I also found a couple of small bones, but I understand that can happen when ordering branzino. We didn't get dessert as we had another event to get to. Overall, I think the service was good and the food was good too. Some interesting flavor combinations I haven't seen in another Mediterranean restaurant. A nice date night environment. I would go back and order something different, but definitely get the gnocchi again!

Pretty good food. Phenomenal service. Highly recommend! The pork belly appetizer was outstanding. The restaurant decor was beautiful.

Always so good!!! Salmon Spicy spaghetti Goat cheese salad Octopus Everything was delicious as usual!

Fia is a hidden high end gem in Atlanta. They offer a beautiful atmosphere, exemplary service, and a limited, but well executed menu for both the adventurous and reserved palate. You certainly would not expect this from a restaurant situated inside a hotel, but Fia delivers exceptional cuisine and outstanding service on the higher end of the price scale. When I'm the main restaurant space it has a quiet peaceful ambiance that pairs well with formal business meetings or intimate date nights.

Got the bone in short rib, hummus, octopus & a few other items. Restaurant is honestly a hidden gem. Great ambiance to be in a hotel, service was quick and parking free!

Fia has the best lamb shank in town... so perfectly cooked. Overall food, ambience are both amazing. Service is also great but one of the servers can be a bit pushy. This is a great spot for date night. Their wine and cocktail collection is fantastic. The chocolate mouse cake is the perfect ending to a lovely meal.

Accompanied a friend to a birthday dinner and the food, drinks, and dessert were great! I had a pasta dish, Brussels Sprouts, and some olives. She had the lamb chops and expressed that she was pleased.

A stunning restaurant, Fia features a boutique cocktail bar, wood-fire grill, and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. I had a bit of difficulty locating Fia, mainly because I didn't know it was inside The Burgess Hotel. Once I found it, everything else was smooth sailing. I was pleasantly surprised to find plenty of free parking! My friend and I made reservations for an early dinner on a Friday evening. The restaurant wasn't quite busy yet when we arrived, but started to fill up as the evening went on. Our server was fantastic. I wish I remembered her name. She was very attentive and helpful. She made great suggestions. My friend and I ordered the following: Espresso martinis Pan seared potato gnocchi Whole branzino Crispy Brussels sprouts Fingerling potatoes We shared everything, except for the martinis -- we each got our own. :) We started with the pan seared potato gnocchi which was our server's recommendation. It came with beurre monte, white truffle, thyme, and parmesan and was incredible. Everything else was excellent; cooked and seasoned to perfection. The branzino is great for sharing especially if you get a couple of sides. We ordered plenty for the two of us. Our sweet server heard we were celebrating so she brought us a delicious and creamy creme brulee. Perfect ending to our night! Food, service, and ambiance were all on point. Fia is a little pricey, and worth every penny! Great place for date nights and/or other special occasions.

Wow! Just wow! One of the best upscale dining experiences I've ever had. Classy clientele, impeccable service and a chic, cosmopolitan ambiance. Can it get any better? Yes! The food was delicious and presented beautifully. Atlanta is full of good restaurants. Fia absolutely stands out. Fia is in The Pantheon!

Great place for date night. The staff had amazing service and everyone from the general manager to the servers were very friendly. The food was amazing, very flavorful I would recommend getting the pork belly.

Every aspect was a success - food, service and ambience. The hummus was really good- served warm!

I want to start this review by saying two things: do not let the fact that this restaurant is inside a hotel deter you AND do not let the plain appearance of the outside of the building hold you back either! Once you enter the hotel, you feel like you are in a completely different establishment than the one you walked into. The inside has some of the coolest décor I've seen, a very large bar and lounge area if you're in the mood for some cocktails and small bites and the dining room has both booths and tables available right next to the open faced kitchen area. The ambiance is on point and the food is even better! I dined here with friends a few weeks ago and everything from the service to the food was superb. My friend and I agreed that we have not had a meal that good at a restaurant in a long time. We ordered a lot of things for our dinner and shared everything except our main entrees. I literally loved everything we ordered, which is rare for me. We learned that Fia means fire in Italian and it was a fitting name, because everything was fire! But really, it is called Fia, because several of their signature dishes are grilled over a wood fire grill. We tried the beets & burrata, pan seared potato gnocchi, pork belly, charred octopus, & grilled ciabatta bread as our starters. If you don't want to order all of these, I would say that the pork belly and the gnocchi are the must trys. Pro tip: be sure to order the grilled ciabatta bread with the gnocchi, because it comes with a yummy sauce that you will want to dip your bread in. For my entrée, I did the 8 ounce center cut filet with a side of crispy brussels sprouts. I highly recommend both of these items as both had that nice wood fire grill char to them, which made them extra flavorful! For the dessert, we did the Bananas Foster. Even though it is not prepared tableside, it tastes amazing. I say all this to say, you need to dine at Fia! It is a restaurant that everyone needs to experience!

Fia was a fortunate find, right down the block from our hotel. Everything about it and the hotel it's part of was amazing! Warm and inviting, amazing photos of world travels. Service was excellent, we came without a reservation and were seated in the bar. Service was prompt, friendly with the staff giving helpful advice when asked about the menu. The food was amazing, good portions, nice presentation and the flavors were amazing. I will definitely return the next time I visit Atlanta.

This restaurant is located in the Burgess hotel. The gnocchi, bread service, watermelon salad, and charred octopus were all amazing. Service is truly 5-star. Would recommend.

FOOD: 90% of what we had was phenomenal, the remaining 10% was just okay -Porkbelly: 10/10 -Wedge salad: 2/10 -Center cut filet w chimichurri: 10/10 -Fingerling potatoes:10/10 -Brussels sprouts: 6/10 (very over-sauced) -Everything was so FLAVORFUL - great use of spices and herbs One of my biggest annoyances with dining out is a lot of the time, food comes out not hot enough - that was NOT the case here, and it made all the difference. THANK YOU, FIA! SERVICE: We were seated at a table by the bar, and our waiter was also the bartender. LV took great care of us, but I think our experience would have been better if we had been seated in the main part of the restaurant just due to some of the bar patrons were pretty loud. AMBIENCE: Fia is in the lobby of The Burgess Hotel, and since we were seated by the bar, it definitely felt like we were dining in the lobby of a hotel. The main section of the restaurant looks much more inviting and is more tucked away from the main lobby of the hotel. OVERALL: We had a great time with some great food. Next time we'll ask to sit in the main part of the restaurant.

We so appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and flavorful food at Fia. We enjoyed late night appetizers--octopus, wedge salad, and pork belly and cocktails (a coconut and pecan old fashioned and a spicy mezcal and lime cocktail) so much we cancelled a reservation we had elsewhere and returned for a full dinner the next day. Our table started with the Cesar salad, pan seared potato gnocchi with a brown butter truffle/mushroom sauce and the asparagus with ham and egg. Two of us enjoyed 8oz Center Cut Filets with chimichurri and truffle butter, which were well seasoned and cooked to perfection (med rare). Another in our party enjoyed the bone-in short rib, which was wonderful. The staff was so welcoming and hospitable; the GM and chef/owner were genuinely interested in delighting their guests. We will definitely return for another visit!

I came across Fia through Yelp reviews, and we decided to try it out. Hidden inside the Burgess Hotel, I can honestly say that Fia has some great food. We tried several things off the menu. To start, we had a caprese salad, and the pan seared potato gnocchi (with grilled ciabatta bread). Everything was great. For dinner, we decided on the center cut filet (added the truffle butter) and the whole branzino with crispy Brussel sprouts. Every bite was amazing. All ingredients are locally sourced. The ambiance of the restaurant was great, plus we were able to get a table in front of the kitchen which was an experience within itself. Plus, John, our server, was great. Very knowledgeable and friendly, plus he helped us with every picture taken.

Visiting area and decided to try Fia based on online menu review and ratings. I generally shy away from hotel-based restaurants when I dine out, especially fine dining. And, when pulling up and realizing this was part of a small hotel, I almost left (did not have reservations). However, I'm glad we stayed. The food was amazing. The menu is largely gluten-free without even asking, and the variety of dishes, styles, & unique preparations - even on common dishes like a wedge salad - was incredible. Cocktails and wine were fantastic. And the boutique hotel seems pretty snazzy, too. As someone who has traveled extensively over 20 years, and can cook better than most restaurants I eat at, I can't recommend highly enough.

They made me and my goth girlfriend very whalecumed. Our waiter was quite possibly the bestest performer at serving our dish. Will be back to enjoy the comfortable chairs!

The reviews are spot-on for this restaurant. The food is amazing. Service is outstanding. Beautiful decor. I love that you can see everything being cooked in the kitchen. The Burgess Hotel is a beautiful boutique hotel that offers the perfect setting for Fia. We started with the grilled meatballs. So flavorful and not too heavy, We both ended up ordering the scallops with the risotto and shared the brussel sprouts. Everything was seasoned perfectly and I loved the presentation with the micro greens that add a nice texture to the meal. Another gem in Atlanta that is a must. I have to reiterate that the entire staff at the hotel, bar, and Fia are fantastic. Impeccable service and lots of smiling faces made the night even more enjoyable.

I came to Fia for dinner, waited about 10-15 minutes before the waitress came to the table. An hour later, we were still waiting for the appetizer we ordered, but still nothing. The waitress was nowhere to be found. We tried several times to stop the manager, but he kept ignoring us. Once we were finally able to get his attention, he rudely responded that the kitchen was backed up and walked off. I noticed that people who had been there well before us also didn't have any food on their tables. I do understand that things happen; however, I would expect that at this caliber of the restaurant, the manager or waitress would keep the customers updated. After the manager spoke to us rudely, we decided to leave and go down the street to Zakia. The food and customer service were much better there. I won't be coming back to Fia, and with customer service like I experienced, I can't imagine them being open much longer.

I came to Fia for dinner, waited about 10-15 minutes before the waitress even came to the table. An hour later, we were still waiting for the appetizer we ordered, but still nothing. The waitress was nowhere to be found. We tried several times to stop the manager, but he kept ignoring us. Once we were finally able to get his attention, he rudely responded that the kitchen was backed up and walked off. I noticed that people who had been there well before us also didn't have any food on their tables. I do understand that things happen; however, I would expect that at this caliber of the restaurant, the manager or waitress would keep the customers updated.

The food was delicious. I really enjoyed the pork belly and fried gnocchi. The spaghetti was a little spicy but still delicious.

Love it here valet is cool. The food is great and the bartenders are super friendly. I came here one night alone and played the bar. Met a nice gentleman, gentlemen often frequent the bar due to the hotel hosting lots of business men

The famous Mark created this gem for me. We named it the Blind Spit! He's the best. Love this bar and restaurant so much. It's such a great vibe but consistently delicious wood. The wood fired branzino is unmatched. Also the octopus app is always a go!

The food was delicious and the place was bustling for a Wed. night. It was a cool vibe and didn't feel like a restaurant in a hotel. The place was busy so the service was a tad slow but overall we had a great experience. I would go back!

Very nice restaurant in Buckhead. Easy to get to and easy to park, which is half the battle. The restaurant is very pretty, inside the Burgess hotel. It's lovely. And, it seems to be very very popular. Dinner was very good, with a couple of missteps. Everybody loved the hummus appetizer, which is a little bit different than usual; it's heated and spiced up. People also loved the meatball appetizer, and the Caesar salad was good. The salad is enough to split with someone else. Our choice of entrées ranged from salmon to short ribs to hamburger to duck. The only slight complaint was that the duck was a bit tough, which I agreed with when I took a bite; however, the sauce on it was excellent. I thought the desserts were a bit of a letdown - the bananas foster was not true bananas foster; it was basically just bananas with some kind of a sweet caramel sauce, and some ice cream. The Keylime pie was ok, and then there's crème brûlée. So I would maybe offer up to the chef to upgrade the desserts, maybe some a bit more sophisticated and updated, choices other than the very basic, common choices currently on the menu. Otherwise, lovely restaurant. Would definitely return, but I'll skip the dessert - not worth the calories.

I love this place. The food is consistently delicious and the cocktails are tasty. I have had the Grilled Whole Branzino, Spicy Pork Sausage Spaghetti, Broccolini, and Grilled Meatballs to eat and the Coconut Pecan Old Fashioned and Cosmopolitan to drink. That spaghetti dish was everything! It was savory with the right amount of spicy and the Coconut Pecan Old Fashioned was a nice twist on a classic cocktail. For dessert, I had the Goat Cheese & Local Honey Panna Cotta which was light, not too sweet, and the perfect ending to my meal. The service was also outstanding! Shout out to Brianna our server who was extremely attentive, Ashley the bartender who was crafting the delicious cocktails, and Nieshta the manager who was making her rounds and checking in with patrons to ensure customer satisfaction. Great job ladies, can't wait to see you all again!

Amazing experience here 10/10. The food & service was amazing!! I'm desperate to go back for the delicious chicken dish. The gnocchi appetizer is just as tasty, make sure you get the bread to eat with it. Drinks are good & strong. It's inside of a hotel with some self parking available. Although I came when they first opened & it was pretty empty, I would recommned making reservations. It looks like it gets packed quickly.

Great Service, Good Food, Great Ambiance Celebrated my eldest son's bday. JT, our server, provided excellent service. He made a great dinner as we celebrated his bday. We tried nine of the appetizers and the meat balls and the pork belly were my favorites. The watermelon was refreshing. The gnocchi was a bit vinegary tasting. The charred octopus was fantastic. The Moroccan Chicken was tender and flavorful. My son enjoyed the lamb chops. We topped this off with crème brûlée and the goat cheese strawberry compote. Yummy!!

Warm ambience around happy people who are not too loud. Started with Mr B's cocktail. It was interestingly refreshing! We decided on small plates or appetizers. They were all sumptuous that we forgot to take pictures prior to devouring them! My husband had the grilled octopus - twice. The shrimp saganaki (sp?) was delicious. I requested for additional toasted bread that came with it. It was so good with the sauce. But I didn't get them even when I said I was willing to pay for it. Maybe because I told another server since ours was tied up with a big group. Oh and the pork belly is to die for! The crispy small potatoes were also delicious and matched the well flavored pork belly sauce. We were not too hungry. We would go back to try the entrees when we're back in Atlanta.
