St. Cecilia is chef-owner Ford Fry's coastal-European restaurant, open since January 2014 in Buckhead's Pinnacle Building. Named for the patron saint of music and the sirens of Greek mythology, the 160-seat dining room leans on Romanesque tiled columns and distressed mirrors, with a menu of fresh pastas, crudo, and roasted fish inspired by the Ligurian coast and broader Italian, Spanish, and French shorelines. Its bar has quietly built one of Atlanta's more respected non-alcoholic programs: Resy notes the restaurant "has been offering nonalcoholic cocktails before it was cool." The zero-proof list is opera-themed and built on fresh juice, honey, and herbs rather than packaged NA spirits, with named drinks including Madame Butterfly (grapefruit, lemon, honey), La Bohème (almond, lavender, lemon, pineapple), and Carmensita (blueberry, pomegranate, thyme, lemon).
