Interior bar
Matthew N.

When traveling down south, the proper gentleman will quench his thirst and satiate his hunger at a steak house, perched on the second floor overlooking the street. Well we were not proper, but we decided to come anyway! It was a classy place with great service. The food was tasty, too. But it will be pricey and you will have small portions...still worth a visit if you are near the Ritz. Try the filet mignon and the house made peach sorbet! One of the most memorable aspects was hand selecting your own steak knife!

bone-in veal parmesan $48
Vic N.

Very disappointing overall. I had high hopes since it's advertised as fine dining. The place wasn't busy at 7pm on a Friday. The inside looked classy with dim lighting to set the mood. Unfortunately, service was a miss. Our server barely checked on us. Different staff dropped off our drinks and food so we never actually saw our server until the end of our meal. I ordered the bone-in veal, which was incredibly salty, from the breading to the cheese on top even the salad had actual salt grains I could chew. The tomato sauce on the side tasted like cheap canned pasta sauce. My friend's Antarctic salmon was a bit better but the prosciutto was dry and stale and didn't add anything. Maybe we picked the wrong dishes but the seasoning was so off that I couldn't enjoy my meal. Wouldn't recommend.

We were staying at the hotel and decided to have a team dinner here. Overall a very nice experience. The server was very attentive made aure we had everything we needed. He was well aware of the menu and the wine list. The food was very good and the restaurant has an old school steakhouse vibe. If back in ATL I would definitely stop by again.

Very disappointing, staying at hotel, came down for breakfast, after ordering, took 20 minutes to get orange juice for the kid. Took almost an hour to get food. The omelette is overcooked and but the eggs Benedict is pretty good. Just frustrating how slow the service is as you'd expect when you are paying 25 dollar for a omelette, the service should be on par.

Halibut with black truffles
Quin T.

We stayed at The Ritz for New Years Eve and while our stay at the hotel was as wonderful as one would expect for The Ritz brand, this was one of the most unpleasant dinner experiences. We were excited to acquire a reservation to celebrate NYE because we did not want to go out and we thought that was a good sign. It started with a phone call asking about a corkage fee.. we were told we could bring our own bottles of wine and that the fee was $35/bottle. No big deal as we were happy that bringing our own bottles was not an issue. We also confirmed with the hostess before she left for the day. It is important to note that a member of my party wrote down the name of both people that he spoke to. We were seated in The Distillery which was nice and sort of private as another party was seated next to us. We provided our waiter with three bottles of wine and before he poured our glasses, a manager approached my friend that made the reservation and instead of speaking to him outside, he spoke to him at the table in front of everyone. He explained that not only are you not allowed to bring bottles that they currently have on their list, but the max is only two bottles. We were told no such thing and furthermore, how are we to know what bottles a restaurant has on their menu in advance? My friend has Ambassador Titanium status and handled the situation very well by not only providing both names of the employees that we talked to but that neither person told us there was a max of bottles or provided us with a prior wine list. After everything, the manager agreed to let it go, as we were able to provide names and times of said conversations. To say his approach was tacky is putting it mildly. After the uncomfortable situation, we started with a seafood tower, that was lacking in so many ways, I can't even go into detail. We ordered the halibut with truffles, seafood fettuccine and the tomahawk steak medium rare. The halibut was delicious, the pasta was too al dente, but the seafood was good and the tomahawk was downright awful. Upon first presentation, our waiter sat down a well done steak with no explanation of the sauces that accompanied the steak. We had a word with him and it was sent back. The replacement was a rare steak. It was cooked on the outside, but the inside was so red, it looked almost raw and with food poisoning was on our minds, it too was sent back and we declined anything replacement. We dared to dine here for breakfast for two days and that is the only reason AG is getting two stars instead of one star. The AG breakfast sandwich with chicken apple sausage instead of Tasso ham was simply delicious as was the cinnamon brioche French toast, and both salmon and classic eggs benedicts were also very good.

Atlanta Peach
Chad M.

Exceptional experience. The atmosphere is classy but not pretentious, just a classic feel to it. Service was amazingly attentive but not intrusive--our server gave genuine recommendations that proved to be well-taken (no tack of just pushing some item they need to move like you unfortunately see at times). Of course, the fare is most important at any restaurant (though I'll definitely give or dock points for quality service and atmosphere). And the meal did not disappoint. Started with cocktails, including an exquisite smoked old fashioned prepared tableside--rich, deep flavor with the smoke giving the perfect accent as opposed to overpowering the drink. At our server's recommendation, I ordered the Berkshire pork chop special--one of the best chops I've had. Tender, well-seasoned, beautifully cooked...this needs to be on the menu. Most of my cohorts ordered steaks of various cuts (always a good move at a steakhouse...), and everyone raved about them. And don't skip dessert. I mean it, get one to go if you're out of room. We admittedly over-ordered a bit, but it was worth it. My person all favorite was the Atlanta Peach--a unique little dish, quite tasty (assuming peach flavor is something you're good with, of course). But all were excellent. I look forward to returning next time I'm in town.

Filet Mignon Macaroni And Cheese
chris k.

Wow! Amazing food was excellent steak was cooked perfect. Hands down some of the best Mac and cheese I've ever had, steak had great flavor. Sat at the bar and service was great, loved the inside very calm feeling and warm, food was amazing, would definitely go back. Highly recommend.

Oxtail tortellini and filthy martini
Maya K.

I came here for a work dinner with a colleague and it did not disappoint! We wanted a place to sit outside since the weather was perfect and the hostess was very nice and accommodating. There are both indoor and outdoor seating options which are all very nice and there is a nice bar seating area as well near the entrance. I ordered a filthy martini and it was made very well! The bread service is delicious and comes with a variety of delicious options. I ordered the oxtail tortellini with a side of Brussels sprouts. The tortellini was filled with so much flavor and the Brussels were sweet and savory. I recommend this spot for anyone who is in the area and looking for some delicious food!

Signature peach dessert
Valie K.

Tom was such a fabulous server from start to finish. The incredible hostess seated me in such a fantastic booth even though I was dining solo but plenty of space during an early dinner. Forever grateful to her!! Such a beautiful intimate setting and outstanding food and cocktails. Highly recommend the salmon and smoked old fashioned.

Fire Roasted Tomato Soup
Anthony G.

This review is based on dinner and breakfast. Breakfast & Dinner- Both times- We were just a walk in. Hostess was not very friendly in the night. Hostess in the morning was great and friendly. Both our waiters morning and night were nice and very good. Place is classy and very nice. Steak- was great (New York Strip) Fries- awesome Chicken- was tasteless Sweet potato purée- good but less than a portion for a baby. Bread - sour bread is fresh and nice Tomato Soup- my wife and I both disagree- whether or not it was good. So we give it a 4 out of 5 Breakfast Wife did French toast- that was really good I did the buffet- Pancakes were tasteless Cafe con Leche- outstanding Pastries- delicious Eggs- were just ok Bacon- very good Potatoes- very tasting Cereal- not very good- tasted old I have no pictures of breakfast, but a decent experience.

Caesar Salad
Carling L.

Great restaurant, lovely ambiance and service. Had the Caesar salad and added steak it was great and split French fries and the broccolini which were both good. The broccolini is not overdone and is served just with onions and seasoning which I liked. Ended with the warm brownie which was good but didn't blow me away. Would recommend this place

Grilled Chicken Breast
Briann R.

10/10. This is a premium restaurant attached to the Ritz, so of course the service is great and the ambiance is elevated. However the food doesn't have to be good and it most definitely was. The filet was cooked perfectly and the chicken was juicy and well paired. Bread varieties as served before the meal and I especially liked the cornbread

Ashly H.

Decided to have dinner here and really enjoyed every bite we took. This restaurant is inside the Ritz Carlton and it shows. Started with the Canadian oysters and crab claws and they were on point. Then we each had their burger and omg it's one of the best burgers I've ever had. Feel free to build it to your taste or order it as is. It's so tasty and I recommend medium. Service left nothing lacking and we are thankful for a great time.

10 out of 10 recommend!…read more From the moment we arrived, the host team took such great care of us. We were there celebrating our engagement, and they made it feel so special by decorating our table with rings and confetti to celebrate our love. Our server gave us so much attention and made the experience feel personal. Since it was our first time there, they took the time to walk us through some of the best items on and off the menu, and shared their favorite dishes. Everything was done with care. The restaurant was clean, the bathroom was amazing, and the food was worth every dollar. The short rib was so tender, and the New York strip was seasoned to perfection and cooked medium well just how we like it. The twice-baked potato loaded with bacon, sour cream, chives, and cheese was delicious, and the mac and cheese was so good. I also appreciated that they allowed me to order it without the roasted saltine crackers. I can't wait to visit again!

This is my second time here and both times have been so good. We came as a party of 3 and left so happy and full. I love Mexican food holy moly We got the queso and octopus shrimp ceviche as starters. The queso was 3 cheeses: American, cotija, and Oaxacan. They heated it up under a salamander so it was nice and crispy on top, while being gooey all throughout. Also came with a couple of nice salsas. The ceviche was not my favorite because I don't prefer raw(ish) octopus, but the squid ink sauce was very flavorful. For our mains the 3 of us shared the red snapper, tuetano with lamb, and the mixteco poblano pepper. Red snapper had a nice charred smoky flavor from being grilled. Was more meaty than flaky in texture. It was our second time getting the mixteco poblano pepper and it hits. Highly recommend eating with some of the salsa as well if you get queso. The duck carnitas in it wasn't particularly duck-y today, but still very good. Best dish is definitely the tuetano. The bone marrow is so incredibly flavorful with the blue corn tortillas. Add some of the pickled onions and it's hard to go wrong with that flavor combo of salt, fat, and acid. if you're going to order one thing, I'd order this and share with a friend and tbh it's enough to be filling. For dessert we got the volcan de chocolate (basically lava cake). The lava cake and coconut ice cream combo is fantastic. You get bits of coconut flakes as you eat! Fair warning it isn't the brownie texture you may be used to, it's a bit more cakey. Amazing service the whole night! Almost got our cars booted because we forgot to validate until 1.5 hours in but luckily we were fine. The staff let us know they have been booting cars though so be wary!

We kicked things off with a couple of incredible Mezcal cocktails that were perfectly balanced and full of flavor. For lunch, we ordered the ribeye tacos and the chicken with mole sauce, and both dishes were outstanding.

A huge shout-out to our server, Oscar, who made the entire experience even better. He was attentive, personable, knowledgeable about the menu, and provided the kind of service that keeps you coming back. The ambiance deserves just as much praise. The music, décor, and overall atmosphere created a sophisticated, grown-and-sexy vibe that made it perfect for a relaxed date lunch. It's one of those places where you can enjoy amazing food, great cocktails, and simply take your time. Casi Cielo has definitely earned a spot on our list of favorite restaurants. We can't wait to come back and explore more of the menu. Highly recommend!

The staff outside greeted me warmly and checked me in, but once inside, the reception felt noticeably different. The staff seemed a little less friendly and somewhat snappy, which didn't quite match the welcoming atmosphere STK presents. Thankfully, once I was seated, my experience completely turned around. I was dining alone, and my server, Ana, was phenomenal. She was attentive without hovering, personable, and made excellent recommendations. The drink she suggested was delicious, and she also recommended the Brussels sprouts, which were amazing. I ordered the ribeye medium-well, and it was cooked just right. Even the bread with the butter and blue cheese was good. The rest of the service team was attentive as well. My plates were cleared promptly, and two managers stopped by during dinner to make sure everything was going well. As a solo diner, I especially appreciated receiving the same attention and level of service as any other table. STK is definitely on the pricier side, and the menu is largely à la carte, so keep that in mind when planning your visit. Still, if you're looking for an upscale dining experience and don't mind spending a little more, I recommend trying it.

After receiving our appetizers and drinks, we waited approximately TWO HOURS for our entrées. Other guests who arrived after us received their meals before we did. We eventually requested a manager, and she went in the back to check on our order. Then Casey our server after walking past us multiple times finally says "oh I was just going to check on that" and our food arrived about 20-25 minutes later which I could assume means they never even started our orders that we placed 2 HOURS AGO. Both steaks were excessively salty and had to be remade. We specifically requested medium, but the replacement steaks arrived undercooked. By this point, the restaurant was closing, and we had no reasonable option but to take the food home and finish cooking it ourselves. To make matters worse, the replacement steaks were missing the umami butter we paid an additional $24 for. When we questioned the resolution, our server, Casey, stated that the steaks would not be comped because we were taking them home. We weren't taking leftovers home by choice. We were taking home incorrectly prepared food after waiting hours and giving the restaurant multiple opportunities to correct the issue. Despite the manager stating, "This is on us," we ultimately paid $174.15, including tax and gratuity. Both my partner and I also experienced stomach discomfort after returning home. While we cannot confirm whether this was related to the meal, it added to our concerns about the experience. We specifically chose STK for our anniversary and left after midnight with food we couldn't even enjoy as intended. For a restaurant at this price point, the food preparation, service, communication, and handling of this situation were incredibly disappointing.
