We both enjoyed our drinks. I ordered the Fried Calamari to start. They were perfectly fried and the marinara had great flavor and was an excellent compliment to the calamari. At our server's recommendation I ordered the Georgia Fried Chicken and I was supe happy with it. The chicken was excellently cooked and the hot honey (really more honey than hot) was a great addition. The Brussels sprouts were outstanding! The Asian inspired flavor made the dish. The Mac and cheese was good, but I like a lot more solid cheese rather than cheese sauce, which this one had. My wife was very satisfied with the Bistro Steak Sandwich. She loved the bread the sandwich came in. The one bite of steak I had was good, but I could have used a touch more salt. She thought it was seasoned perfectly. We had a window seat and had a nice and peaceful view of the adjacent wooded area.

I requested a table by the window--glad I did, as they don't have many booths here, and the noise level in the restaurant was quite high, so being over against a window helped. Service was good--professional, friendly, and not rushed. Bourbon meatball appetizer was amazing. My husband loved his grouper sandwich; I got the trout and it was fine but nothing special. Deducting one star for the cocktails--my Manhattan was pretty weak. Nice selection of wines, however.

It came with a cornbread, a buttery biscuit, and banana pudding. I was pleasantly surprised by the other items since the ordering site only listed the entree. Best Shrimp & Grits I've had to date. The shrimp was fresh and not overcooked or rubbery. The grits were smooth. The gravy was well seasoned, but not overly salty or rich. The cornbread and bread or biscuit was good, but not extraordinary. Those were quite dense and heavy paired with the other food. I loved the banana pudding. This meal jumpstarted my banana pudding hyper fixation. Very fragrant and not too thick yet still nice and creamy. It wasn't overly sweet or heavy either. It was a good dessert to round out the meal. I hope to come here again and have an actual sit down experience. Curious to see the ambiance!

Steak can be cooked to each person's preferred temperature which is also nice. It's definitely got a nicer atmosphere, good for a date night or celebration, and I would definitely come back.

We visited on Saturday evening as an early celebration for our wedding anniversary. We arrived at…read moreour reservation time and were seated immediately -- the host was very friendly and welcoming. I was a bit surprised to see that they were pretty empty inside (6:30pm on a Saturday seems like prime time), but the ambiance was pleasant, nonetheless. Our server was knowledgeable and walked us through the wine list -- I always appreciate when they don't just recommend the most expensive bottles. We ended up ordering a Sazerac and Corpse Reviver, but wished we had ordered wine. The drinks were both pretty warm, and it may be the first time ever that we've left cocktails unfinished. The bread and salad came out, and both were delicious. Our server did warn us that the cheese on the salad was not pasteurized, which seemed like a strange choice for a restaurant, but oh well. For such a simple salad, it was excellent. The bread and butter were great, too, but the olive oil tasted a bit rancid to me. Soon after we finished the bread and salad, our steak frites were served. I am normally a filet girl, through and through, but the NY Strip was so tender and flavorful that I forgot I wasn't eating a filet. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare, and despite the other reviews, the serving was plenty -- 7-8oz each. The fries were so good that I couldn't quit eating them, long after I was full. The garlic aioli and béarnaise sauce were delicious, as well. Definitely worth the $49/person! I found it a bit frustrating that the restroom was downstairs in their sister restaurant, Little Sparrow, but it wasn't really an issue. Overall, good food, good service, great ambiance, but the cocktails could use some work. Will probably return, but it's not at the top of my list.

It's very open, airy, and stylish and they also have a spacious outdoor patio that would be perfect on a nice day. I absolutely loved all the decor, artwork, and the flags throughout the restaurant. Seeing a Korean flag displayed honestly made me so happy because that's something you rarely see, and it made me feel so seen and welcomed. Even the art in the bathroom was beautiful and thoughtfully curated. Every detail of the space felt intentional and added to the overall experience, and I loved all of it. The vibes were unmatched! The DJ was incredible and had the entire place feeling like a brunch party in the best way possible. Every song felt like a hit, and our group was singing along, dancing in our seats, and having the best time. The music truly elevated the entire experience. Now let's talk about the brunch buffet... It was SO good. The spread had a great variety of options, and everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned. My absolute favorite was the grits topped with the Cajun shrimp. I also tried the grits with the smoky brisket, and wow... the beef was so tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The greens were also so yummy and seasoned really well. The waffles with the peach toppings were delicious, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. They also had fish options, fried chicken, desserts, and so many other delicious items, so there was something for everyone. One thing I really appreciated was how attentive Chef Marcus Samuelsson and staff were about constantly refreshing and refilling the buffet so everything stayed hot and fresh. You can truly tell the chef and team put a lot of love, care, and intention into the food here. Everything tasted thoughtfully made and full of flavor. The mocktail was also a standout! The purple color was gorgeous and made for such a cute drink moment, but even better, it was actually delicious and super refreshing. And the service? Truly top tier. Everyone we interacted with was so warm, friendly, and welcoming. Our server checked on us often, made sure we had everything we needed, and added to the overall positive experience. You can tell the team genuinely cares about hospitality. A friendly reminder if you plan to go with a group: your entire party does need to be there before they'll seat you, so definitely plan accordingly. Also be mindful of parking since it's mainly street parking, though I got lucky and found a spot right in front of the restaurant. Yes, the price point is a little higher, but honestly, the food, music, atmosphere, service, and overall experience made it completely worth it especially for a special occasion brunch. Marcus Bar & Grille gave great food, great vibes, and great energy all around. Thank you Chef Marcus Samuelsson and the amazing team for a wonderful dining experience. I will absolutely be back and already can't wait for my next visit!

Located in the Burgess Hotel, this hidden gem had me considering a return the next day. When I walked in I was stunned by the beautiful and intentional decor. Such a cute entry, bar, lobby and restaurant - made me wish I was staying at the hotel! We were seated promptly and received excellent service. We had an idea of what to order based on reviews, but the server provided additional recommendations. He was awesome. For starters, we shared pan-seared potato gnocchi with an order of grilled ciabatta on the side to soak up that delicious sauce. This is a must try!!! It was so good, I could have enjoyed it as my meal. The flavor was out of this world, the chef definitely got it right! I chose the braised lamb shank for my entree. Another banger. So tender it fell off the bone. Flavorful..Moist... SO good! The portion was huge too, it could be shared by two unless you have a big appetite. It was a whole meal for me another day. I can't say it enough, the chef really understands flavor profiles and how to make them come to life. Didn't order dessert, but I did have the coconut pecan old fashioned and Le Frenchie. Both were good but Le Frenchie was really my speed. Had the best time and experience here. I would visit in a heartbeat the next time I'm in Atlanta.
