    Love this location! I'm from California and this location was definitely better than the ones I've visited in my own home state. The meat quality was superb, we did the diamond tier and everything was amazing especially the thick cut A5 wagyu. The wagyus are melt in your mouth delicious and definitely worth the extra splurge. The buffet area has tons of options which I liked a lot because there was so much variety, especially the meat counter, where you can pick a few slices of each meat rather than having a whole order. The best part was our server Leah, she was amazing, very attentive and made sure we had a great time! Thank you Leah, for the wonderful service, definitely will try to come back to ATL to visit this location again.

    The food was very delicious, unfortunately I felt like the cold sides were made too far in advance and were very vinegar forward. The meat was all wonderful! PHILIP was an amazing server, and we never had to look for him or ask questions because he was so full of information. We got the gold tier and our bill for 2 after the membership was only $150 without tip. Amazing for actual Wagyu.The ambiance was a great everyday family friendly atmosphere. The review lost a point due to the cleanliness of the women's bathroom. It was really gross. Other than that, I RECOMMEND.

    Amazing food, beautiful restaurant. Ricky was very attentive, and quick. Definitely would come back. I might like the food more than Wagyu house. The buffet is bigger here

    First time and the experience was 10/10. I got the Gold tier so I can try the A5 Wagyu. Nite the first 2 section of the gold tier: you can only order 1 order from each section and that's it. Then the rest of the selections within the gold menu is unlimited, on top of everything in silver tier. I was too hungry to take pictures and wish I could have take more pics. Overall the meat quality was top notch. The A5 melts in your mouth. And some other meat, the seasoning was really good with peppery taste. I recommended getting the gold tier. All the sauces were good as well. And the sides. The handroll sushi was great! And the tomyum soup was so delicious! They also have 2 different types of milk tea for unlimited drinks! And the matcha Mille crepe was so good as well! I love the decor of the place with manga covers and Japanese styles. Shoutout to our waiter Ricky for helping my group of 6 people cooking the meat. He was very accommodating and answer all our questions!

    Last year we tried Wagyu House and ended up getting a membership. This year I was excited to try their sister location. Unfortunately, I ended up disappointed. The place is located right where Perimeter Mall is. I haven't been on that side in years, so I had no clue that you have to pay to park. No biggie. I went with two other friends. Initially, the told one of my friends that she could do the $35 special on her on, but once our time started they came back and told her she had to go with what the table is going with. Which I thought was the rule, but didn't know if they were slightly different than Wagyu House. The layout of the restaurant gives off casual vibes and is nice. There weren't a whole lot of ppl there. One of the reasons I chose the weekend is because of the seafood options. However, there were no crab legs or AYCE seafood options. That was my first reason for feeling like I got cheated because in the 90 minutes we were there, it never came out. The other issue was that the food we ordered didn't come out. When it did, all the food was not delivered to the table. We had to ask our second server for the food because the first server said she would check on it, but it never came. At the time one of my friends hit me with some crazy news and therefore I didn't make a big fuss with the manager. The Wagyu that came with our tier was absolutely delicious. Everything else was meh. To me I feel like we were cheated out of experiencing what we came for. Speaking with another friend, who went to the Duluth location the week before, and both of us agreed that Wagyu House was much better. I don't know when I'll give them a second chance, but I do believe in them having one.

    Chubby Cattle coming to ATL was a huge win for the food scene. AYCE lovers, this place absolutely delivers. The service, management, and Chubby Cattle team is consistently great, and the food quality never misses. There are so many delicious options. You order most items straight from the tablet, plus there's a buffet area for extra goodies. The selection is impressive- Wagyu, a wide variety of proteins like pork belly, beef, steak, and more, plus some dim sum favorites, sushi, nigiri, curry (special shoutout to the rice machine, because yes, it deserves its own moment), dumplings, fried bites, a solid drink selection, and even desserts including some soft serve ice cream and bubble tea (without the boba) to finish strong. This location is in front of Perimeter Mall. The ambiance is another highlight. This Chubby Cattle location is spacious, perfect for larger groups, and has a fun, lively vibe. Walking in genuinely feels like you've been transported to another country- great energy, great atmosphere, great time. Pro tip: There's a set time limit for AYCE, so order strategically and keep an eye on when you can submit additional rounds on the tablet. Plan wisely and you'll leave very happy (and very full). Also, there's some paid parking right out front but you can park for free at the mall near Cheesecake Factory. Overall, Chubby Cattle is a must-visit if you love AYCE done right.

    We came for lunch right at opening and opted for the Diamond tier. There's a 90-minute dining limit, so pacing matters. Mixing richer, fatty cuts with leaner ones is the way to go in my opinion. Standouts for me were the shank and the Australian wagyu, both excellent in flavor and texture and offered that rich-lean balance. Service was attentive and efficient, especially since we were one of the first tables of the day. I imagine things could feel more rushed when the restaurant is busy, but our experience was smooth and well managed. Located in the former Breakers restaurant space. Would return.

    I love ayce bbq and went to try out this new restaurant that opened in perimeter! They have everything you can think of - sushi, all kinds of wagyu, dumplings, vegetables, slushies and more. I enjoyed everything we tasted! I am normally hesitant of buffet sushi but these were being made fresh and were very good! Some of my favorite meats were the miso brisket, short rib, and wagyu ribeye! They also had a miso soup and rice machine. The rice machine is so smart because it is way more hygienic than having to self serve/scoop out a container. For drinks I got a lychee slushee which was delicious. We also ordered from the bar the matcha peachtree which was my favorite - very unique taste of peach and matcha! The soju-rita and lychee martiniz were also good choices. I would definitely recommend this spot. Pro tip- to save $ try coming in the week day or for lunch :)

    The service was great I really like how they changed the ordering into iPad and the sushi is freakin great dare I say better than meats even tho the meats were pretty high quality. The seats are nice and stoves are clean.

    I love chubby cattle group. So when I saw this newly open place, I had to check it out. There is no tiers at this location. It's one price all you can eat. I like that you can grab your own meat as well so you don't have to wait for the servers to bring it to you. I love the decor at this location. It's a little different than the others as well. They also have manga lined up all around the whole restaurant. Do not open the manga books, please they are displays only. I noticed some of them were open. I like the idea a lot since sometimes when the kitchen is backed up, you have to wait for them to bring it to you at the other locations. I also love that this location has more variety when it comes to the side, dishes and buffet option. They actually have more desserts here and they also have a lot of different appetizers as well and the buffet. The only thing I didn't like about this location was you have to have a chubby group membership in order to get the more premium cut meats. I go maybe once a month and to a chubby group location. Maybe I should get a membership but usually at the other locations you can get Gold or Diamond tier and you can get Wagyu Otoro. It's one of my favorites and its melts in your mouth good. At this location, they only had regular Wagyu cuts, which wasn't bad, but I really like getting the diamond tier. Ever since my trip from Wagyu house I've just been blown away by the A5 Wagyu. I just can't eat normal Wagyu anymore. I probably would come here again for conveniency, since they grab your own option was nice. On days where I don't feel like walking definitely the other location.

    So my sister and I weren't too keen on the traditional Thanksgiving meal this year so we dined on shabu shabu at Chubby Cattle at the Perimeter Mall today. I don't know what restaurant this used to be but they've transformed it into a hip Korean bbq spot. Inside is really nice, clean with urban vibes. Service was good. Whenever we got ready to put meat on the grill, our server was right there to assist. Our grill was changed halfway through the service to make sure we got great tasting meat each time. It was some of the best Japanese BBQ I've eaten, with tender cuts of wagyu beef that melted in my mouth. The AYCE bar with other pieces of beef and seafood plus Korean sides, soups, dumplings, drinks and desserts was plentiful. It was a delicious meal where I got to try some interesting dishes and spend some quality time with my sister for fun times and good laughs.

    My friend found out about this place online so we made reservations in advance. Unfortunately, we were not able to stick that reservation time so I called when we were on our way and put our names on the waitlist. Even though they estimated a 45 to one one hour wait, we will get a table in about 30 minutes. There were plenty of tables available, so they must've been understaffed to be having people wait. We enjoyed a variety of their dishes, including the proteins, vegetables, soup, dumplings, sides, and the plethora of drinks. The quality was pretty solid, and the staff were as friendly as they're busyness would allow. Overall, we had a good time, but the expense is a little too steep for me to justify coming again. Cool environment, but I would prefer to return to a different Korean barbecue spot.

    Skip the chicken skewer. The king mushrooms were great.

    Dropped in today for lunch with a couple coworkers. Understand they're just shy of them being open and they had just started being open for "lunch". Imagine our surprise though when we found out there isn't really a lunch option, just straight up $60 all day dinner unless we sat at the bar and ordered something else (really wasn't well explained and until after we'd been sat). With the sticker shock behind us we went to work and largely was impressed with the offerings. It's obvious the meat quality is superior than just about any other ayce kbbq spots out there, maybe aside from their own top tier offerings at their other locations. While variety is good and I'm sure some ppl will appreciate it, it's pretty obvious the "also rans" are just there purely as filler. By that I mean the Chinese food section, the curries and stews, really didn't look very appetizing, and the couple bites I did try were very meh (salt and pepper shrimp for instance, just go for the cocktail shrimp instead). I will give credit to the vegetable bar for having fresh and varied things I've not seen elsewhere such as shishito peppers, king mushroom salad, etc. The dozen or so Japanese/sushi options were hit and miss, I enjoyed the seared beef and salmon nigiri, but the rolls were no better than sushi kingdom quality. Special shoutout to the Wagyu slider though, that was done surprisingly well and my coworker went back for seconds. Regarding the meat itself, vast majority of what they had and we tried were various cuts of Australia Wagyu, some lean some fatty and none we didn't like. Didn't wander much into the marinated offerings, or the fresh seafood, but looked to be plenty of options there as well. Overall, good spot and great service from John. I'd come back despite the higher price tag.

    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!

Bones has old money vibes - for example, the receptionist referred to us as Mr. and Ms. which I felt like was very polite and again, traditional. We were celebrating my birthday, and they pre-decorated our table a little bit! We got special print-out menus that said "Happy Birthday" and the table had a little bit of confetti on it! It was a nice gesture to be welcomed with. Our server, Michael, was great at being attentive (without being overly attentive), and providing recs/answering our questions. We went with the Crab and Lobster Napoleon for our app, the Ribeye to split, and a side of their famous Hash Browns. Everything was very good!! I will let the pictures speak for themselves, but all the food comes out hot, fresh, and with good flavor. I really do recommend getting the Hash Browns - it sounds a little silly to order such a dish at a steakhouse, but try it for yourself :) All dishes have a good portion size so keep that in mind when ordering! While not pictured, I do have to give a shoutout to the complimentary bread service - their bread is real good. Hot and fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside. Try not to get full off the bread alone. For dessert, Bones surprised us with literally the tallest and thickest slice of ice cream cake I've ever seen! My jaw dropped. I love ice cream cake and it was awesome to be treated to some!! I already thought that the table decorations and the special menu were enough to recognize my birthday, but this is the generosity of Bones. I will absolutely be returning some day! If not for the amazing food, then for the equally amazing hospitality! Thank you Bones for a wonderful birthday! Note: Complimentary valet parking ONLY. We asked the valet person if we could just park the car but we weren't allowed to. Bring some cash for a tip.

    Fives across the board…read more Casi Cielo is incredible. The space is warm and beautiful without trying too hard, and the crowd was hip and well dressed. Definitely a place to be seen and eat well. There's a parking garage but it was full when we got there, so we did valet, which was surprisingly affordable. Service was wonderful. Our server was attentive, helpful, and super knowledgeable about the menu. As for the food, we got: Aguachile de Pescado, which was insane. Super fresh, bright, citrusy, ceviche-like with perfect texture. I would go back just for that. The Hamachi was clean and bright. That avocado sauce tied everything together and gave it some depth without overpowering the fish. The Pork Belly Tostadas were crispy and rich with that smooth avocado mousse and sweet mango salsa balancing it out perfectly. Finally, the bone marrow with steak... so good. I had seen pictures of it before I came and it did not disappoint. The steak was incredibly tender. They bring blue corn tortillas and suggest making a taco with the marrow, steak, and avocado. It's great that way. But honestly, the marrow and steak stand perfectly on their own. Whole experience was excellent. Easily one of my favorite spots in the city now.

    We came here last night to celebrate my sister's birthday with a large group. Unfortunately, the…read moreservice kicked off on a really sour note. Right when we walked in, the staff complained to us that we hadn't called ahead to have a "smaller, special menu" crafted for a large party. To make matters worse, they loudly announced to the whole table right off rip that they wouldn't split checks separately--only an even split. It felt incredibly rude, lazy, and unwelcoming. The irony is that the large group size wasn't even an issue; we staggered our arrivals and the patio was completely empty. The kicker- my brother in law ended up paying the whole tab at the end anyways! so all of that initial laziness & nastiness for NOTHING! Throughout the night, the service felt incredibly rushed and stressed. While we were still eating our appetizers, the busser was aggressively trying to clear our plates because the mains were coming. Our server was very short with us the entire time, which was confusing because the restaurant didn't even have a stressful vibe. She recommended a main dish to me that I really didn't care for, though I will say the salsa was unique and probably the best part of the meal. Shoutout to the one staff member who was actually friendly, but overall, this is not the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a nice restaurant experience- at least I personally didn't.. Too bad we didn't just go to C&S next door which we always love. Regardless tho, my sister had a blast, but that's entirely because she has a wonderful crew of great friends, not because of Casi Cielo.

    I first dined here a couple of years ago for my birthday. While the food wasn't particularly…read morememorable at the time, the bread service certainly was. Combined with the exceptional service and beautiful ambiance, the experience left a lasting impression and made me want to return for another try. That opportunity came this past Sunday. I originally planned to stop in for a drink and the bread service, but my boyfriend and I ended up ordering the Caesar salad and the Lobster Risotto as well. The bread service was just as amazing as I remembered. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed the Caesar salad, especially the freshly grated cheese, which he said was incredibly light and airy. As for the Lobster Risotto, it exceeded my expectations in both flavor and portion size. The risotto itself was somewhat mild on its own, but once I mixed in the herb butter, it became absolutely delicious. The lobster itself was very tender and tasty, I loved it. I've officially fallen in love with Marcel and will definitely be adding it to my list of go-to dinner spots. The bread service, ambiance, interior design, and customer service are all outstanding. I truly appreciate supporting businesses that consistently deliver such a high-quality experience.

    Walking into Marcel, one is transported to another world. A moody, retro, classic world where…read morebowties are worn unironically in a setting that could best be described as a boxing gym renovated with industrial touches to become a steakhouse in the 1940s. That world could be anywhere. It could even be in Midtown West Atlanta. Service was impeccable. Servers knew we were celebrating our anniversary and were attentive and helpful when making tough menu choices. Pacing was definitely geared toward fine dining. 40 minutes between starters and entree was a BIT long, but it went by. Steak was wonderful (a porterhouse for 2), cooked to a perfect medium rare with seasoning appropriately calibrated to not overpower. East and west coast oysters were fresh and the Marcel salad to start was underdressed and lacked flavor (I enjoyed how they plopped a mound of bleu cheese on top to mix in; I pushed this aside which my server and I laughed about. He said he'd do the same. Maybe it's a sign). Hot bread service with a spreadable cheese and prosciutto was a nice touch. The French fries are probably the best I've ever had, and the asparagus was asparagus (slightly undersalted if anything). Chocolate cake was impressive in presentation but unremarkable for flavor and consistency. My wife enjoyed her decaf coffee as the best she's had at a restaurant, but her cocktail left something to be desired and was extremely tart. A Mexican coke was perfect enough for me. The pricing here is exorbitant. The price tag isn't necessarily a problem given the caliber of dining experience and ambiance that Marcel provides, but given some of the misses on staple items (namesake salad, "famous" chocolate cake), I'm not sure that value for dollar spent is present. In transparency, our dinner comprised of the above was over $400 with tip, which was aligned with expectations walking in the door. Whether the food stood up to the actual place and pricing is a debate. I lean toward an answer of "almost, but close enough not to be insulted." If a gun was pointed at my head to pick the "best steakhouse" in Atlanta, I'd pick Bones without thinking twice. This place is a close second probably, but places like Nowaks in Sandy Springs, while not the same echelon of formality, might have Marcel beat on flavor and definitely have Marcel beat on value for the dollar. Is Marcel's concept valid and well executed? Yes, without question. Would I want somebody else to pay if I returned? Yes, without question. 4.3/5 stars

I absolutely love the aesthetics and the overall vibe. The space is beautiful, welcoming and perfect for a date night. The food was fresh, flavorful and everything came out perfectly. A special shoutout to Carrie for providing amazing service and making our experience even better. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. If you're looking for a great spot with a cute atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service, definitely check this place out. I'll definitely be back!

Very good table service made extra points with making a birthday a special one. Music is good and at a volume level where conversation remains the primary focus. For me, this is a special occasion only spot, b/c the prices are a bit steep (especially since their sushi, oysters, and lobster roll are more expensive than they are in Boston). I think the logistics of getting fresh seafood makes it more expensive in Atlanta for certain selections? I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on that one. Also would have appreciated an oyster being taken off the bill when I informed the server it was a bad one. All in all ok, knowing that's a known risk with eating them.

Great seating and a lil darker inside. We enjoyed our dinner and appetizers and the fellowship was superb. Definitely recommend.

Inside the bar is straight ahead to your right. The kitchen is open and visible from the seating area, giving a sense of transparency and feeling of home. Elegant tables arranged with plenty of space to move about lets you know they're more interested in your comfort than maximizing how many bodies they can cram into one big room. Excellent servers are watchful without being disruptive. I like to enjoy my meal without being pestered every few minutes. I ordered the Bone-in Ribeye (my go-to for any steakhouse) and was *NOT* disappointed Perfect temperature. Flawless execution. I could tell they allowed equal time to cook and rest before delivering it to me. Prices are reasonable for the culinary experience and the quality meal you receive. Thank me later. Go and enjoy a special night out tonight!

    I can't count the number of times I've driven past this place. Honestly, if I hadn't been invited…read morehere for a birthday dinner, I probably never would've tried it -- and now I'm so glad I did. Our waiter was incredibly sweet and patient with us, especially since we were a little indecisive and had plenty of questions. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated, clean, and had a really nice atmosphere. I started with the lychee martini, which is easily in my top five lychee martinis I've had. The bread was a little underwhelming, but the butter made up for it. For my entrée, I ordered the wet-aged 16oz ribeye cooked medium, and wow -- it was phenomenal. Crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked, juicy, and served sizzling straight from the skillet. I got the green peppercorn sauce on the side, but honestly, the steak didn't even need it. For my side, I chose the Brussels sprouts with the delicious yuzu drizzle. I also sampled the truffle fries, creamed spinach, and lobster mac and cheese -- all were really good, but the creamed spinach completely stole the show. I will say the food took a while to come out, but they absolutely made up for it because everything tasted amazing. To top it off, someone from management brought complimentary celebratory lemon drop shots for the birthday girl. I'll definitely be dining at Little Alley again!

Perfect environment too: just enough chatter and lights to make you feel cozy. Thank you so much for your kindness.
