Very nice menu with an extensive wine list. The prices and quality of the food is far superior than Olive Garden. Their quality meets and EXCEEDS Carrabbas. I tried the Tortelloni & Grilled Chicken Sausage and while the portions were smaller than what youd find at larger commercial Italian restaurants, the serving size was filling and quality was spot on! If you get a fresh field green salad, try the Jalapeno-Citrus Vinaigrette dressing, it is not as spicy as its namesake and very tasty. Enjoy the wine bottle collection when you go! Excellent quality at reasonable prices.

Service was awful. Had to wait over 15 minutes to get drinks. Drink went empty twice. Over 45 minutes to get a pasta dish that was tiny and lacking flavor. Wifes depalma chicken pasta was the most bland dish Ive ever tried at an Italian place. Had to wait probably 20 minutes after asking for our check. We showed up at 6 and didnt leave until 745. Ive heard east side is suppose to have better service that west side but I wont be returning

Didnt eat there. I came in as a party of two and asked to wait 5 minutes. We waited 20 minutes while two parties of four were sat ahead of us, one of them had called ahead apparently. There were several tables clearly open. The hostess never updated of the prolonged wait. There was no reason to continue waiting, as it seemed the table service would be slow. I think they were understaffed. Either way, bad service experience.

Just left this place not even a minute ago. I was seated and forgot about. Wait twenty minutes for a waitress to acknowledge me, even though I sat near the kitchen. Had to have the hostess send a waitress to my table. I asked for a sandwich menu, my waitress brought it and then walked away to take another tables order. So disappointed.

Food is delicious, but for the price the quantity just isnt there. Probably some of the best spaghetti and meat balls in town. If youre coming hungry and on a budget, probably best to avoid or just load up on bread. But if you are looking for a nice spot to take a date or when the parents are in town, this place is a good choice.

DePalmas is a favorite of ours whether its just the two of us, or dining out with friends. A delicious dining experience every time. Check the daily specials, or stick with a favorite. The staff is friendly and the food is great!

BEST PIZZA IN TOWN! Though their entrees are great also. Lots of good wine and beer to choose from. They have outdoor seating for when its nice. My husband and I are here at least twice a month for dinner or carry-out pizza.

Expensive and kind of small portions but very, very good food. Best Italian in Athens. My one problem is they apparently only have dry wines and were very condescending when I asked about a semi sweet or sweet wine.

Very nice, delicious salad, wife had pasta Depalma, all good artichokes. Friend had pasta Depalma with sausage, enjoyed it as well. Good service, great old tunes and atmosphere. A little on the pricey side.

Our pizza was very dry and over cooked almost burnt. It took 15-20 min. to get our waiter to come and refill our drinks. The food was tasteless and over priced. I much perfer Carrabbas across the road.

Attentive staff and housemade deliciousness. Can order anything from heavy to very light--even just the sides menu can make a meal! Oh, and the pizza! A long-time classic Athens restaurant.

One of the best lunch specials in athens. I actually havent been here for dinner yet but its one of my favorites for lunch because of the slice + salad combo. Great food and good deal.

This is my wifes favorite Italian restaurant. We ate here during most big occasions when we still lived in Athens. Big portions and the bread sticks are incredible.

Expensive. Long wait. Very loud. Portion size small compared to price. Everybody in my party said the food was good though.

I eat here about once a week. The lunch pasta is delicious, and so is the soup! I have never had a bad meal here!

Not a big fan of the food. I felt like everything was bland. I much prefer the Olive Garden across the road.

Best New York style pizza outside of New York, and the dough flinging guys put on a great show!
