It's a cute spot! It's great for work lunches or dinners, meeting up with friends, or even a date. The service was excellent; everyone was friendly, and our waitress was very attentive. The menu offers a wide variety of options, with a clear Cajun/Creole influence. I visited for a work lunch and ordered the Chilean salmon along with a stuffed crab cake add-on with feta chive mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. The salmon was a bit too fishy for my taste, and while the Brussels sprouts were good, I would have preferred them a little softer. The standout for me was the crab cake and the mashed potatoes, both were really well done. read more

So I gotta have mixed feelings about this establishment on the one hand they are very professional,, atmosphere is great and the selection of food and drinks is pretty good. However, I felt like I was rushed y the services and really wasn't given enough time to enjoy the. atmosphere. So I think they're really concentrating on turnover which I get that's how restaurants make more money so just keep that in mind if you come here to dine. read more

I was excited to try this restaurant because my parents loved their experience. The outside is such a vibe. You can take photos in front of the restaurant. You can sit inside or outside. Our waiter was nice and took our drink order. While we were reviewing the food menu, a cockroach ran on top of my menu. We killed the roach but we got grossed out and told the waiter we were leaving. I give this place a one star for that reason. I will not be coming back to this location. read more

We had a reservation. So when we arrived, we did not have to wait. We were immediately seated. However, it did take a while for a waitress to come See us and get our order. And then it took even longer for the food to come out, Because the restaurant began to fill up by the time we were ordering our food. The food was just okay. read more

Tonight my family had dinner at 1885. Kelsey and Avery were our servers and Aiden brought us our food. The service was absolutely top tier and we will be back in a few days. Anna served us a few days ago and gave us the excellent service that we have come to love from our extended family at 1885 Kennesaw. read more

Upstairs patio was nice, waitress was nice, food was good. Yummy. They do have a slightly different menu than the Acworth location so keep that in mind. The only thing I don't like is the plates. The plate had spots that didn't give a clean appearance. I will go back. read more

Stopped by on a weekend evening with reservations but it wasn't necessary. Initial impressions are it is a cool layout with tasteful decor and nice people. Ordered a taco Tuesday beer from Monday night brewing but the tap was empty. Decent draft beer selection though. Jalapeño corn poppers were average with a somewhat bland aioli. I ordered the Buffalo shrimp tacos ad a main. The shrimp was heavily breaded and drenched in sauce so no shrimp taste to the meal. The fresh bits of bleu cheese were a nice touch and saved the taco. Fries were OK. GF had the salmon bowl which she enjoyed. Overall, just average food. Waiter (Ricari) was pleasant and attentive. read more

This was our first time at this location. The food was awesome, the service was great. It is right in town so it's a great location. Great ambiance and I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Classy. Comfort. Flavor. The food here is really good... but you gotta get the right things. We asked our waitress for recommendations for our appetizers and entrees and sides, and she definitely recommended really good things. We went to dinner here with reservations and without a budget, so we enjoyed all the goodies! We started with the soup of the day and a caesar salad for our appetizers. The soup of the day was a crap bisque, which is always one of my favorites... so good! For dinner, I ordered the signature sirloin enhanced with mushrooms and onions. Im not usually one to get anything on my steak, but the veggies mixed with the herb butter was a burst of flavor! I've never had anything quite like that herb butter. The side item was just as good as any...hush puppies with honey butter... yum! The crispy hush puppies with the super sweet honey butter was maybe my favorite experience of the whole night. We also got a side of green beans which snapped beautifully and were very very nicely salted. The atmosphere here is really calm, quiet, beautifully decorated, and pretty upscale classy with a country farmhouse twist. It's the perfect spot for a nice date-night dinner! read more

May be the most underrated restaurants in the Kennesaw area. Great food and reasonably priced. I recommend seeing Maggie and Kelsey at the bar, they'll take amazing care of you! read more

Once again we had a great time and great meal at this location. The staff is exceptional friendly, attentive, and professional. The food is simply outstanding and plentiful. As far as the prices go, the value is greater than the cost, and the prices are very reasonable and fair. We love coming to this location read more

Had dinner with a large group in early September. It's a relatively new restaurant so it wasn't too crowded. Parking could bit a bit of an issue but there are locations off premises with a short walk to the restaurant. I ordered wings and they were really good. I also got the pecan bread pudding which was also very delicious. Will definitely make it back there. Everyone thought the food they ordered was great. It seems they lean more towards seafood though than the acworth location. read more

I come to this restaurant every time I'm in town for business and it never disappoints. I've had the jalapeño corn fritters which is a great starter. The sea bass is worth the trip alone.

Our server Lex was really on his A game. Helpful hints, humor and quick service. He seemed to be managing 6 tables too! Menu had something for everyone. Savannah, the manager came over to check on us after our meal. That was a nice touch. Nice interior. The place was fairly loud so would recommend for people with hearing issues or sensitivity. read more

The food was just ok the ambiance was terrible but the service was good. The drinks for the holiday were terrible

This very busy restaurant has a good potential however does not provide a cooking consistency. For example, my husband 30 days aged ribeye steak was excellent, but my chicken tights with North Carolina white bbq sauce were overcooked and dry. My watermelon salad had old tasteless feta cheese , but my husband's side's salad was fresh and tasty. Our server was good but the whole ambiance at the restaurant felt like speed dating, the salads came before even the wine was served. There is a difference between the efficiency and being rushed. I hope this restaurant will learn that difference. read more

The lights falling off the building on every corner should have let me know not to come in. But I decided against my better judgement to give it a shot. Needless to say by my 2 star review. The canned crawfish in the etouffee was horrible. Bread hard as a rock. Desert was fire so I had to not give it a 1 star. read more

Everything was delicious! The Mac and cheese balls, wings and buffalo chicken egg rolls were great options for appetizers. I had the 7 oz filet and it was prepared a perfect medium rare. My girls enjoyed their grilled shrimp with Mac and cheese and hot dog with fries. I enjoyed a mocktail from the booze free menu, it was a pineapple drink. The server was amazing and kept our drinks coming. We normally eat at the Acworth location but enjoyed the more intimate, downtown atmosphere of this location. read more

Ok, I'm from Maryland and their crab cakes here are over the top. I took a picture but more than half was gone. lol.

Was at this place last night and the food was reasonable. What I hate about this place, and I had the same experience at the Acworth location, is the service. The servers don't seem to understand that after the appetizers are finished it is expected to remove ALL the plates and serving dishes once everyone is finished eating !! This did not happen so then we had to eat our main course looking at several plates with chicken bones on. This is really not acceptable for a restaurant that would like to be up market. At 2 out of 2 on this complaint there must be a systemic issue ... poor training. Shame really because so easy to fix. Good luck .... read more

We started going to the Kennesaw 1885 grill. It started as a whim it became our go to. The food there is great. You've never had a complaint. It has flavor that we like.! the service there is outstanding too. We always go for particular bartenders because we know they take care of as well and they care about what we want and ask if we're OK all the time. It's a quaint place. We really enjoy the comfort that comes from this ambience. Period if you wanna enjoy a good meal and have a good time, this is the place to come to.! read more

I want very much to like this place. It has a great atmosphere but other things fall short. The staff members have bad attitudes and are not engaged with customers. The wait staff are loud and clang dishes when cleaning the table worse than any Waffle House I have ever been to. The food is really good which is another reason I want to like it but many other places that treat their patrons well and do their job much better. The bar is pretty low these days and they don't measure up. Disappointing read more

I loved 1885 in Acworth and was excited about having one in Kennesaw. My first visit to the new Kennesaw location was good, but sub-standard to Acworth. This summer it seems that the menu and quality of food has changed at both locations. The ambiance is still great, service good but the food not as good. Sadly, I will not be back to either location after several mediocre meals. read more

Overall good experience at 1885 Grill! Service was awesome. Staff walking by checked in on our general wellbeing which is always a plus. The restaurant including the restrooms were clean. Most of the food we ordered was good. The consistency of crab bisque needs some work. It was extremely watery and lacked flavor. The smoked salmon and artichoke dip was good. The warm pita paired nicely! I ordered the Chilean Salmon for my entree which was good however the compound butter was forgotten and the seasonal vegetables were extremely burnt and uneatable. Caesar salad was delicious! Overall price and location (parking YES) were good as well! read more

Bottom line upfront. The Kennesaw location of 1885 is much better than the Acworth location hands down and by far. We had a party of 10 and were seated on time and our server was fantastic. There is no comparison of the quality of the cuisine as compared to the mediocre at best dishes served at the Acworth location. We will definitely be back. read more

The food was ok. The service was terrific! The restaurant had a nice decor but fell short of the What was there when trackside was there. We had the hush puppies and they just ok.

Tasty choices. Awesome service. Will return for more. Easy parking. A clear winner in my book.

Disappointed that my meal came out 10 minutes after the rest of the table. Took two times to get my steak to temp but other party at tables filet ended up like a hockey puck. Drinks were good but steaks sucked. Too bad, had high hopes for this restaurant. Inconsistent from one dining experience to another. The restaurants idea of apology is a free dessert and an appetizer coupon. Too bad! I was first to review this place and ownership has yet to claim Yelp site. Wonder why? read more

This place is OMG delicious. The apps in the picture were delicious. The corn fritters are capital "O" Outstanding. I loved the pimenta cheese on the fried green tomatoes. I tasted 3 entrees. My wife loves Shrimp and Grits and 1885 did not disappoint. They were really good. My son had the Southern Fried Chicken over mashed potatoes. It was a large fried boneless cutlet. The gravy had a creole taste to it and it was all fantastic. I had the blackened chicken and pasta. The creamy Cajun sauce was delish. The linguini was perfectly al dente. I added grilled veggies to it and the squash and mushrooms were a perfect addition. My wife and I shared a warm brownie topped with vanilla ice cream. I will absolutely be back for steaks in the near future. Our waitress, Jasmine, was sweet, attentive and on point. Our water glasses were never empty and empty plates were cleared quickly. Thank you to Chef Luis and Jasmine for a fantastic Father's Day dinner!!!! read more

Excellent food, awesome service and fantastic ambience!!!! My lovely wife, Lane and I decided to try Tavern 1885 in Kennesaw for our Valentine's Day dinner. It was FANTASTIC!!!!! Maggie was our server and she is a rockstar - we had the jalapeno fritters for an app, then the Sea Bass and the Salmon for the entrees.... every item was perfectly cooked and Maggie suggested all of the items to us!!!! Pete, the GM, came by a few times to check on us and we were quite impressed with everything!!!! This is a great dining experience and we will absolutely be back to see Maggie and Pete. We dine out about 2 or 3 times a week and after two years of living here - this was the very best dining experience we have had (and we are restaurant people!). I would give them 100 stars if I could!!!! read more

The service was excellent and the food was too! We really enjoyed the live music and mimosas during brunch, and unlike some brunch spots we never felt rushed to give up our table.
