Atlanta’s largest downtown, ground-up hotel development project in 40 years has unveiled details on the property’s food and beverage offerings.
Signia by Hilton Atlanta is expected to debut in January 2024, introducing three full-service restaurants and three bars.
“Our diverse and sophisticated culinary offerings from chef-driven concepts to stylish bars at Signia by Hilton Atlanta, spearheaded by our incredibly talented team, will deliver an unmatched experience in Atlanta,” said Teri Agosta, general manager of Signia by Hilton Atlanta. “Whether guests are dining with us for a big game, seeking a best-in-class breakfast for an executive gathering, or indulging in an authentic Italian dinner, Signia by Hilton Atlanta will offer a variety of options to please every palate.”
The concepts are as follows:
Capolinea: An Italian and contemporary American fine-dining restaurant led by Executive Sous Chef Jeuel Ortiz, where guests can find regional and locally sourced antipasti, handmade pasta, prime-cut steaks, nostalgic dishes from parmigiana to Bolognese, tableside martini service, and house-made seasonal gelato and sorbet.
Nest on Four: An upscale sports bar overlooking Mercedes-Benz Stadium and State Farm Arena led by Chef Andreas Mueller, where guests can find reimagined stadium favorites, from duck sausage hot dogs to mini milkshakes and peach hand pies, as well as more than 25 beers on tap, local wines, top-shelf spirits and non-alcoholic options.
Homespun: Also from Mueller, a Southern breakfast destination featuring signature Fried Chicken Biscuits to elevated dishes like French Toast Fluffernutter and Creole Tomato Shakshuka.
Highball: A pool bar featuring craft cocktails, including a signature “Cobbler” cocktail, and Southern picnic favorites, also led by Mueller.
Friendship Market: An all-day cafe and boutique market, where guests can find La Colombe Coffee, grab-and-go essentials and a curated selection of favorites from locally owned businesses, including fresh crudité, beverages, chef-curated cheese boards and more, led by Chef Daniel Palaima.
The Lobby Bar at Signia: An 88-seat destination bar featuring jazz and contemporary soul music where guests can find cocktails and a shareable menu paired by Palaima.
Signia by Hilton Atlanta will also introduce Club Signia, a signature guest experience that gives guests a multitude of extras, including a dedicated Club Ambassador, enhanced room offerings, and access to an exclusive lounge with customized food and beverage options, including chef demonstrations under the direction of Palaima.
At the helm of the hotel’s culinary team are Director of Food and Beverage Jacob Linzey, who oversees all food and beverage operations, including catering and events; Executive Chef Christian Quiñones, who leads the hotel’s expansive culinary team and is responsible for everything from concepts to community engagement; and Executive Pastry Chef Daniella Lea Rada, who leads an all-female pastry team, responsible for conceptualizing and preparing all house-made desserts, pastries, chocolates and more. The beverage and wine programs are led by Director of Beverage Evan Sewell and Sommelier Marvella Castañeda, respectively.
“Signia by Hilton Atlanta’s unique and diverse selection of elevated culinary options are our love letter to Atlanta,” Linzey said. “Paying homage to our city’s history, whether by name, flavors or both, our hotel is sure to become a food icon in the southeast. Our team has thoughtfully curated food and beverage concepts that will provide an innately Southern hospitality experience with regional and local ingredients. Whether Atlantans are dining with us to celebrate a special occasion, or business travelers are here unwinding after a day of meetings, or a sports enthusiast is traveling in for the big game, we look forward to becoming a global dining destination for both the city of Atlanta and travelers from all over.”
Signia by Hilton Atlanta will have 976 rooms, as well as more than 100,000 square feet of meeting and event space. For meetings and events, the hotel’s event venues blend spaces that encourage congregation with food and inventive drinks. Director of Banquets Michael Woods and Executive Sous Chef Ajay Chaudhari will lead the team.
The hotel features the largest hotel ballroom in Georgia, an outdoor event deck and an outdoor event lawn.
