Popi Classic Italian

5456 Bethelview Rd, Suite 109, Cumming; 770.205.7573

People say unbridled sinning'll land you penniless in the
gutter, but then how did lust pay for the world's most
famous mansion, or slothful sitting pay for Ghandi's kids to
go to college? For a livelihood founded on gluttony, hit
Popi Classic Italian.

An intimate, 80-seat trattoria cheaply but warmly decorated
with blow-up prints of food & wine, earth-toned seats, and a
twig-sprouting wooden divide to segregate the bar, Popi's is
helmed by a CT native who spent every youthful weekend
eating two dozen clams casino at his favorite resto, who
returned the favor by handing him their family recipe. All
food (bread, pasta, and sauce included) is homemade daily,
from antipasto like jumbo Prosciutto-Wrapped Shrimp ("Who
needs blankets, when there's Italian ham around?") to
hand-tossed, stone-baked, extra-charred New Haven-style
"apizza" like the Carne (grilled & sliced steak, sausage,
meatballs, mozz) and the White Spinach (spin leaves,
sausage, shrooms, fresh garlic, blk olives); or, create your
own -- they say "If it's in our kitchen, we'll put it on
your pie", so reach for the stars and ask them to top yours
with lasagna. Pastas run from beef-stuffed Cannelloni, to
Chicken Saltimbocca (rolled w/ prosciutto, spinach, &
cheese), to a DIY option with 4 pastas (linguini, penne,
angel hair, spaghetti), sauces (marinara, mushroom, bianca,
alio olio), and $4 "mates" -- meatball, sausage, chicken, or
grilled veg, so finding a jovial Aussie pub-dweller's on you.

Beer is bottled (Moretti, Newcastle, Peroni), while wine
(Paul Hobbs Argentinian Merlot, Candoni Pinot Grigio...) is
carefully chosen by the owner's daughter, and is of such
fine quality, if anyone else attempts to pour a glass you'll
be totally lit up with greed.

Lunch on weekends only. See Popi's menu here:
