Michaelee's Italian Life Caffe

Italian Life Caffe is a full service boutique restaurant with a creative menu, accented with our fine Italian olive oils, balsamic vinegars and ingredients that will surprise and delight you.  We import pasta, Parmigiano Reggiano, balsamic vinegars, olive oils and sea salt because they are indispensable to create a great Italian meal.  The  restaurant was opened in 2006 in Hiawassee Georgia as Michaelee's Chocolate Caffe by Michael Collins, graduate of the Culinary Institute in Hyde Park NY and his wife Lisa Collins.  We moved our restaurant in January 2015 to the lovely downtown square in Blairsville Georgia. Michael and Lisa travel to Italy in an effort to emulate the Italian life experience.
