AMORE E AMORE TRANSFORMS INTO THE NORTH (HIGHLAND) POLE FOR THE HOLIDAYS
Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 11/5/25
Reservations Now Open for Dinner with Santa & Mrs. Claus at Atlanta’s Most Festive Ristorante
This holiday season, Amore e Amore is taking holiday magic to new heights. Beginning Wednesday, November 5, through Christmas Eve, Wednesday, December 24, 2025, Mama Gale and Professor Giovanni will once again transform their beloved Inman Park ristorante into The North (Highland) Pole, a whimsical winter wonderland overflowing with twinkling lights, glittering trees, and festive flourishes in celebration of Amore’s 25th anniversary during the most wonderful time of the year.
Along with over-the-top décor, themed cocktails, and a special holiday prix fixe menu, the restaurant will welcome back Dinner with Santa & Mrs. Claus—one of Atlanta’s most anticipated holiday dining experiences. Returning on November 25 and 28 and December 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11, 2025, the evenings promise pure holiday cheer as Santa and Mrs. Claus spread joy to guests of all ages.
Young revelers are invited to write and mail letters to Santa while enjoying a kid-friendly prix fixe menu featuring pizza bites, meatballs, and child-sized portions of classic entrées like fettuccine alfredo, cheese ravioli, and spaghetti and meatballs for $29.95 per child. Adults can savor the full à la carte menu or opt for the limited-time 25th Anniversary Prix Fixe Dinner for $125 per person (excluding tax, gratuity, and alcohol)—a multi-course celebration of fan-favorite dishes, seasonal touches, and Amore’s signature tableside flair. As guests dine, balloon artists, face painters, and roving entertainers fill the room with laughter and lighthearted energy. The North (Highland) Pole shimmers with nostalgia and whimsy, but it’s the joy shared around the table that truly makes the season shine.
“As we celebrate 25 years, we’re reminded how much this neighborhood and our guests have become part of our story,” says ‘Mama Gale’ Parker. “The holidays have always been our favorite time of year, and transforming Amore e Amore into The North (Highland) Pole feels like the perfect way to share the magic.”
Amore e Amore is open Tuesday through Sunday beginning at 5 p.m. Kids ages 12 and under are welcome to dine from open until 7:30 p.m. For more information or to make a reservation, visit www.amoreeamore.com or call 404-600-2176.
