    Free appetizer for first time visitors
    Shareen C.

    My friend and I came on a week day lunch and got sat pretty much immediately. The inside was bright and the service was amazing. Our server explained the popular items on the menu and answered all of our questions since it was our first time at Marlows. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the blue burger with a side of asparagus fries. They were both delicious. I would say their shrimp and grits is a must order! They were also able to split the entree into two plates. This was a really nice touch especially if you want to share the entrees, they divided the food evenly. We also got a free appetizer that was super yummy for dining at Marlows for the first time. The dish has potato chips as a base with aioli, tomato and bacon bits on the top. Such a delightful surprised that contributed to our experience at Marlows!

    I love Marlow's Tavern! Every time I come here, the food is always good. I took my mom and nieces here the other day for their first time, and everyone loved it. My mom and I both got the shrimp and grits, and they were a 10/10. So good! We also got desserts, and both were amazing. Our server was nice and attentive too.

    Shrimp and Crab Nacho plate $13.50

    Had an amazing solo lunch on yesterday at Marlows. Marlows is one of the places where tou cant go wrong with anything on the menu. Parking is free and you can access the restaurant from their "secret" back door. Lol. Just need the code! If you know you know! I entered and was greeted immediately. I took a seat in a booth tucked away. Jeff came and waited on me! He was waited on me before. Always nice, cool, calm and collected. Lol straight to the order and the point! I ordered an Arnold Palmer $3.25, for lunch I ordered the shrimp and crab nachos $13.50 and a little caesar salad $6. Everything came out hot and fresh. The shrimp and crab nacho plate is Sautéed Shrimp, Crab, Pepper Jack, Fresh Jalapeño. The Hail little Caesar is Romaine, Tuscan Kale, Egg, Parmesan, Focaccia Croutons. Marlows is known for some great food, amazing vibes and even a sports scene with all the tvs! Will be back as usual for SURE! Thanks Marlows!

    This is the front entrance of Marlow's Tavern.

    The place is in Mid-Town so parking is a challenge. The outdoor patio is a nice addition weather permitting. The double black doors to enter makes it kinda mysterious before entering. It was 1p and the place wasn't packed, only 4 people at the bar. I ordered an Old Fashioned and wing. The wings were very small but okay. The Old Fashioned was okay and balanced, but lacked the appeal. No lemon peel garnish and cherry to set it off. An Old Fashioned is an experience and should be savored.

    Housemaid veggie burger with cheddar cheese and fries, exceptional!

    I must've forgotten to review this wonderful restaurant the last time we were in Atlanta. Both times we stopped in for lunch and the overall experience was just fantastic. You are warmly greeted by a host or hostess, they have a full bar area and many tables and booths that are very comfortable. The service is exceptional, all the waiters and servers seem to work in concert with everybody and they all seem very happy to work there. The place is very clean and now let's talk about the food! The menu is very eclectic, something for everyone, and the food is so fresh everything is house made! This is the second time I've had their veggie burger and it is off the charts as are the fries that come with it. My wife had the grilled chicken sandwich, which was excellent and we shared the homemade hummus. It is the best we've ever had. The drinks are also excellent. They make a perfect old-fashioned. I ordered a Sam Adams and the draft beer was the perfect temperature, perfect pour with a clean glass. Just everything you would want and expect! We even got a visit from one of the chefs who was very happy that we loved the food and the service so much.

    Selections, and occasional solutions, lol!!

    Marlow's is a great neighborhood restaurant and bar with great food and a great atmosphere. Their loyalty program is really good and rewarding, so join it!! I enjoy the menu because it has something for everyone. The bar is awesome and the bartenders are great! If you're looking for a quick lunch, a cold brew, or an intimate booth with someone special this is the place. Catching a sporting event on one of the many flatscreens is also fun! Give Marlow's a try, I think you'll like them.

    I've visited Marlowe's Tavern a couple of times and also ordered food to-go, and it's quickly become one of my favorite spots. Their burgers are always delicious and never greasy--which I really appreciate! The hand-cut truffle fries are a must-try, too. When I went for dinner with friends, I ordered the filet mignon and it was absolutely amazing. I also love that they offer a great selection of alcohol-free mocktails; the grapefruit basil one is my favorite. The service is always friendly and attentive. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to!

    The asparagus fries are a must!
    Kendall C.

    Wednesday was my 2nd time here in a week, but 4th time over all. Monday night Molly was my server to celebrate my birthday & Wednesday Vanessa was my server. Both were great, but I missed Clover on Monday....however I did get to see him Wednesday & walked up & talked to him at the bar. The food here is exceptional as always, & the staff is always great... but I do have a favorite & that's the wonderful & amazing Clover! Next time my family & I will sit at the bar with Clover, but Marlow's is always so delicious. Also on my visit Wednesday, I found out about their late night menu from 9pm-10pm.

    Burger with fries, fried okra, shrimp bowl, I un-sauced wings
    Stephen M.

    Friend of mine suggested this place for a midweek chow down and the place was buzzing. Got straight to ordering. The burger wasn't well seasoned and came with a tomatoey bacon jam that didn't add to the burger. The fried okra's was my friends...I tried one and let him enjoy the rest. The shrimp and wings were great but nothing to write home about. Great service though.

    Shrimp & grits with one or two bites taken!
    Kacy C.

    We ate at Marlow's on a Saturday night on a holiday weekend! I am not sure if they are typically this busy, but it was pretty crowded! Our waiter was great & attentive! He gave us a 'first timers' complimentary dish that was quite yummy & a nice surprise! The kitchen moved pretty quickly given the crowd! I ordered the Shrimp & Grits & my companion ordered the Classic burger with tomato/bacon jam. Both were very tasty! I also ordered an extra side of the parmesan crusted broccoli & was a little disappointed in that it didn't have too much flavor, but overall we had a great experience & we were very satisfied!

    I absolutely love this restaurant. They are always so welcoming and the atmosphere is really nice…read more It's great for business meetings or a romantic dinner. Making reservations is really simple via OpenTable. They have Valley parking which cost around eight dollars, but there is also a parking garage where you can pay by the hour. They have a pretty large dining room with an area for more private dining as well and they also have seating at the oyster bar. This is my fourth visit and each visit the food has been really good. For our appetizers we got my favorite the shrimp à la Plancha, but I did notice that the bread that comes with the dish has gotten significantly smaller. For dinner we had the fingerling potatoes, which I was not a fan of. They were pretty hard. I got the red fish for my entrée and we got the collard greens for our vegetable and the greens tasted amazing. My friend ordered the She Crab Soup and Fried Oysters and said they were both delicious. I missed out on the Peach cake (out of season) but they had Apple and I liked it.

At our table, we had the spicy kale salad, fried oysters she crab soup, and blackened red fish. All of these dishes were expertly prepare prepared... but that black and red fish was a thing of beauty oh my gosh! Ridiculously delicious. If you're having trouble making up your mind, listen to me right now get the freaking blackened red fish, OK?! I almost forgot we also had dessert. Everyone except for me really loved that apple pudding cake. I thought it was just kind of a mess. But ohhhh, the Keylime pie!! A work of art! So very good.

The space is clean but not sterile: exposed brick, warm wood, and a bar that glows like it wants you to linger. *The food* skips the tired "burgers and mac" checklist. Think short rib agnolotti with smoked corn puree, charred broccolini with miso-garlic butter, and a fried chicken sandwich that somehow stays crisp under a jalapeño honey glaze. Portions are generous without being wasteful, and everything tastes intentional like the kitchen tested it 10 times before it hit the menu. *The cocktails are the real flex.* The menu changes seasonally, but the bar team leans into flavor over gimmicks. I tried the *Oaxacan Old Fashioned* with mezcal, mole bitters, and orange peel that's torched tableside. Smoky, slightly sweet, zero gimmick. My friend went for the *Cucumber Basil Gimlet* and said it tasted like summer in a glass. No sugary syrup bombs here. Bartenders actually explain what's in your drink if you ask, and they're good at steering you if you're unsure. Service hit the sweet spot between attentive and relaxed. Water refills showed up without hovering, and the server knew the menu well enough to call out what's spicy, what's rich, and what's worth splitting. It feels like a place locals will become regulars at, but it's good enough to bring out-of-town friends to. Creative without being precious, tasty without being safe. Sorry I didn't take pictures,
