    Walking into Bar Ti Amo from the parking lot (parking is free) leaves one unimpressed, with its weird and slanted entrance floors. The four of us were seated at a window in the first dining room, with a view of the parking lot and all the cement. There is a peek-a-boo view of some Buckhead highrises. The room lacks a cozy, Italian feel one would expect, compared to Antica Posta, its sister restaurant owned by Marco Betti. There’s a banquette covering a lovely fireplace and another in front of an outside door. Hmmm. That being said, the food is outstanding, and that’s what we came for. We shared a yummy margarita pizza to enjoy with our cocktails, then enjoyed the burrata cheese and prosciutto salad; both were plentiful and delicious. But the highlight for two of us was the non-traditional lasagna, wonderfully prepared in a bolognese and béchamel sauce with pappardelle noodles. Our other two diners raved about the fettuccine Alfredo and penne pomodori. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience and we will be back soon, and overlook the unassuming atmosphere.
