Yeppa & Co.'s Beltline location pulls its identity from Rimini, on Italy's Emilia-Romagna coast — the accent, the hospitality, the food memory of a long table and a kitchen full of hands in dough. The cooking leans on family recipes, including a bolognese the restaurant says traces back more than 130 years, and focaccia flown in directly from Italy rather than made to imitate it.
An oversized bar anchors the room, built for lingering as much as passing through, pouring spritzes, classic cocktails, and rotating specialties. Regulars point to the service and bar staff as much as the food, and the restaurant has developed a reputation as a destination for special-occasion dinners in an atmosphere built to slow things down.
The Beltline spot sits alongside sister restaurants under the same ownership group elsewhere in Atlanta, including Storico Fresco and Forza Storico, with private event space available for larger gatherings and buyouts.
