Restaurateur Steve DiFillippo will open a fourth location of his flagship restaurant, Davio’s Northern Italian Steakhouse, in Atlanta on Wednesday, August 25. The restaurant, known for its unique twist on traditional steakhouse classics, will be located in Phipps Plaza (in the old Niketown space) and will serve lunch and dinner daily. Davio’s is known for its menu of highly-praised Northern Italian cuisine with a focus on steakhouse classics. DiFillippo has chosen Chef Bennett Hollberg, formerly of the Atlantic Grill at The Ritz-Carlton Atlanta, to execute Davio’s mouthwatering menu selection of appetizers, salads, homemade pastas, pizzas, fresh fish dishes, savory sides, the finest cuts of beef, and other classic Italian plates. Davio’s also offers a gluten-free menu, as well as a children’s menu, both of which contain a wide selection of savory Italian dishes.

One of Davio's signature dishes include grilled Porterhouse veal chop, creamy potatoes, and vintage port.

Davio’s newest location, designed by Steve Todisco and BKA Architects, features a 9,000-square-foot upscale space with rich, mahogany wood paneling and wainscoting, oak floors and warm accent colors on the walls. The restaurant seats up to 200 guests and includes an elliptical-shaped bar, grand dining room, three private rooms, chef’s table with a kitchen view, a special pizza oven with bar seating, and a patio.
