The Americano

After a successful first operation in Arizona, Chef Scott Conant brought his Italian eatery, The Americano, to the InterContinental. Steak and seafood are on order, but it’s the handmade pasta that really shines, especially the tagliatelle bolognese topped in a creamy fonduta. The  cocktails embrace Italian classics like the smoked Negroni, with the Drunken Wifey being another favorite. For the Buckhead work crowd, the restaurant has a weekday “espresso lunch” and daily happy hour specials.
