Overview

For the high-profile fans and international travelers arriving for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta serves as the city’s most sophisticated "global headquarters."

The Scene: This Italian steakhouse is the place to see and be seen in Atlanta.

Match Day Fuel: Whether it’s a pre-match breakfast or a celebratory post-game dinner of tableside-carved steaks and pasta, the restaurant provides a high-performance menu for the high-performance fan.
