Birthday dinner and this spot was on my list. We had a reservation however there was a short wait for our table. There was also a short wait for server however he was worth it. He was attentive, kind and patient with a big smile. When we return, we are definitely sitting in his section. Appetizer- Peach glazed ribs (fantastic) and Jollof rice balls(did not enjoy) Entrees- Spicy okra and ribeye with potatoes. Drinks- Kings Legacy and crown of courage were typical Atlanta drinks... overpriced and meh! Overall a great experience and our waiter made it fabulous. We would go back! read more

First time coming here for a very good friend of mine's birthday celebration gathering. She had reservations for eight on a Saturday evening. Since it was a nice weekend everyone and their auntie's cousin's friend were outside. With that being this location was packed to capacity. I unfortunately got there late because it took me a minute to find parking! PLEASE NOTE: When traveling or going to any restaurant on Edgewood there's no private lot parking! You will have to find parking on the street or find a valet. Around the fourth or fifth time looking for parking I finally found decent valet parking! I would advise everyone coming here to give yourself about thirty minutes prior to secure parking. On another note the waiter/host was amazing! So kind, hospitable, friendly, and knowledgeable of the menu. A true gem! I believe her name was Naya and she was great! She made sure I got all of my food and drink! The food was incredible and fresh! I had to wait about 40 minutes after placing my order to get my food. I ordered the lamb chops and macaroni and cheese! Whew! One thing about two things for sure, someone's grandma was back there cooking that food! Best part about this location. I would literally come back for their lamb chops alone. The drink was very good I got the peach Rita. read more

I have to give this restaurant 5. The ambiance, service and food were amazingly great. It was Valentine's Day. We had a 6:45pm reservation and were seated immediately. Our waitress Jackie was very attentive not pushy and knowledgeable about the menu. She catered to us with excellence! We started off with cocktails. Jackie suggested a few items but we opted for the Knuck if you cluck. That consisted of a tower of fried chicken wings, waffles, cornbread and the deviled eggs. We also ordered the Mac and cheese and collard greens. Let's start with the tower. The chicken was seasoned to perfection & was delicious. . It was accompanied by a series of dipping sauces. The greens were very tasty with a hint of sweet and spicy. The deviled eggs were mild in flavor topped with fried crispy onions and were scrumptious. I don't eat waffles or mac and cheese but my husband said they were delicious. The cornbread was light and flavorful and complimented the other dishes with ease. We then had the bread pudding for dessert and that too was magical. Overall a 20/10. We will definitely recommend to anyone interested in having a great meal with great service. read more

I went for the Sunday brunch. It was delicious, and the price was just right. Love the music and the vibe when it starts warming up.It'll be nice to sit outside, but they have the inside air coming in pleasant atmosphere. All the food was good.I felt like a little pig trying everything so I couldn't even try because it was just so much where you gain a few pounds, so don't go counting calories. The service was good with the exception of our second table were Seven - seemed to be having a bad day and questioned the age of my granddaughter, where she did not look older than twelve (she's11).He upheld his stance, saying he's only going by policy claiming we needed to show proof of age from her school login or something. When the situation was rectified, he didn't even apologize. Otherwise I will go back and make sure that he is not my server. Then, my rating will be 5 read more

Attended Mother's Day brunch and we really enjoyed the buffet serve style food. The server was nice and very attentive. The ambiance of the bar and patio were great on a nice warm day. 2 drawbacks were the music was too loud where it was difficult to hear my mom. Additionally we had to wait several minutes for clean plates. And be prepared for valet parking for $8 next door. I'd probably return to try their dinner menu as every food item for brunch was good read more

Easter brunch at this buffet style restaurant. The food was excellent and freshly prepared with breakfast and lunch options. The service was pretty good but mainly for the drinks and coffee since it is buffet. The ambiance is very casual and laid back for the surrounding area of 4th Ward. Only negative is the parking situation an be risky. Come early and please do the reservation to ensure you have a good experience. read more

First time in Atlanta. The vibe was great. The food was good. The cornbread was delicious. The ribs for appetizer were perfect to share for the table. The fish was a little under seasoned. The Piccadilla was chef's kiss good! Our server was a doll and really knew the menu which I loved. My only feedback is that they need to buss/reset tables before the following course comes out. We each had a plate with our appetizer rib bone sitting in front of us until the dessert menus were dropped. I was really confused and kept waiting to see when a server, food runner, or busser was going to notice bones just sitting next to our food for the entire meal. read more

Arrived 10 minutes early, restaurant was open, reservation was at five. Ask the maitre d if we could be seated early. She said coldly, "you will be setted promptly at five. The food was highly priced, and tasted like a TV dinner that was in the freezer past it's expiration date. Spent over $159.00 , very much not worth it. I see no room for improvement. Dont waste you money. read more

Chef Marcus has been one of my favorite chefs since I discovered the Food Network back in grad school. I was so excited when I learned that he was opening up a restaurant here in Atlanta. Upon entering I was so happy to see the decor. It was very nice. Very kind of old school retro homage to and good music; it was a very nice space. We ordered a couple of different dishes and shared everything and the food overall was quite good. I felt like some of the drinks/cocktails missed the mark and our server was nice, but they could have been a little bit more knowledgeable about the menu. Overall though, this was a good experience and I would definitely go back and try out some other things. read more

We met my nephew and grandniece for dinner at Marcus Bar + Grill. It was lovely. Marcus has this chill vibe that makes it very comfortable. Low music. Excellent service -- thank you server Rachel. Tables far enough apart that we didn't over the other guests. The menu is fairly concise which always gives me confidence that the meals are made fresh and that the chefs know what they are doing. We started with drinks and their amazing cornbread. The cornbread was big enough for the four of us to share. My wife ordered an okra based main course ("crispy okra with coconut risotto, spicy tomato sauce, and basil oil") and I had grilled red fish filet ("pan-seared red fish is finished with nutty black sesame tahini, spiced baby carrots, and bright pickled cranberry"). Of course we shared the dishes. And both were great. Extra points: Marcus is a 10-minute walk from our house. On this particular Tuesday night, this was an adult crowd, not young people looking for companionship. And adults is my preferred demographic. Quiet conversation over an excellent meal with great service in a lovely environment. What more could you ask for? read more

I'm really angry!! Why didn't anyone tell me about this place??? How could I have not known that the best brisket on the planet was being cooked on a blazing furnace in thw Ols Fourth Ward?! Well, I know now and I am doing my job by making sure that you know about it. I knew that this place is special when I walked in the door. An old converted garage is now funky restaurant on Edgewood Avenue. When you come in, the wonderful smoke smell grabs you and seduces you into a chance. Half of you is in your childhood remembering when uncle Joe was on the barbecue grill. The other half is in the future, imagining yourself eating something wonderful. Then your eye is caught by the fiery furnace out of which magical food appears. The decor is modern and kitschy and perfect. I was in love! Server was gracious and friendly. He he was attentive and was always where you needed him doing what you needed him to do when you needed him to do it. I'm so sorry that I didn't get his name... But you will know him because he has the best glasses you ever saw! Of course it was the brisket sandwich talk with the most delicious peaky barbecue sauce... Oh my God I won't even talk about it. You just have to go try it for yourself. It was amazing. Our visit was topped off when we had an opportunity to meet the executive chef, Gary Caldwell. Such a nice guy! He was very friendly and stayed to talk a while. My dining companions and I decided that our bucket list now involves visiting all of Marcus' restaurants. He hired Gary Caldwell so clearly he knows talent when he sees it! I can't wait to go back. We're already making plans... if you're smart I'll see you there! read more

I really wanted to love Marcus Bar & Grille. The food was good. The service was not. My friends and I went the Sunday before Presidents' Day for brunch. I will say the food was good. Those grits were something dreams were made of. When we were seated we sat for 20 mins before I had to ask the bartender to find us a waitress. We had no water no NOTHING. Eating grits and drinking our spit. Once we did order drinks they took a while to come and to top it off there was an extra charge for the holiday . I thought was ridiculous. I think this place has potential just need to work out a few things. The food the food is good. I will not deny that. read more

In town for a concert and my friend suggested we try this place. I had no idea it was a buffet. I would have skipped because I don't feel I eat enough for a buffet style restaurant. It was $45/person. I think that's fair-especially the variety they offer. They have seafood, beef, pork, chicken, and lots of sides. They even have a grill outdoors that offered prawns and crab legs (but I couldn't find any butter for dipping) It's very loud in here. It was hard to have small talk with my table mates. I wish there were more dessert options. The banana pudding was far from actually banana pudding. The service was great! I did try a cocktail (crown apple, cranberry, ginger beer and I think peach schnapps) it was terrible. I love all those ingredients but it did it taste good at all. The waitress did say their dinner menu is really good! Maybe I'll give it a try next time I'm in town. read more

My husband and I are huge fans of cooking shows and Marcus Samuelsson is one of our favorite celebrity chefs, hands down. Yes, we are those people, and we were so excited to try one of his restaurants! We had a reservation and got seated right away. The ambiance is super bustling and fun, with a wall of roller skates, shadowboxes behind the bar with Marcus-like hats and other little knickknacks, and a little shrine to Prince at the kitchen pass. Our server was a little on the quiet side, but he still was excellent at everything, including questions and recommendations. He told us that everyone loves to start with the M's Corn Bread because it's that good, and OH MY - he was so right. It was almost a dessert, with a huge dollop of sweet honey butter on top and salty giant cornbread cake below. Yum! We also got a few heartier starters, as this was our big blow-out meal before we left Atlanta. Our first appetizer was the Deviled Eggs. I consider myself a deviled egg aficionado, and these were top notch. Creamy, unctuous, and with little chitlins on top for some crunch. Smaller app, but I definitely recommend. We next had the Lobster Gnocchi, and WOW. It was a large portion of pillowy lobster gnocchi, chunks of lobster itself, and a huge bed of lobster butter that was almost a lobstery marinara. This one was more on the expensive side, but totally worth it! When we decided on entrees, we got two different things to share so we could each try both. I got the B&G Smashburger, because I hadn't had a burger in Atlanta yet on our trip, and it has the restaurant's name in it, so it had to be good, right? Yes! It was so perfectly cooked, and had a delicious onion jam on it that gave it a slight sweetness, along with a garlic aioli for a little tang to counterbalance the jam. It also came with some very well seasoned fries, so it's a lot of food! We got a side of the Mac and Cheese to split also, made with sharp cheddar and toasted on top to make a cheesy crust topping. My mouth is watering again just talking about that mac and cheese. My husband went on the lighter side for his entree, and got the Miso Salmon. The salmon filet was grilled to perfection, and came atop a bed of crab fried rice and a red curry sauce. And it came with a pea puree that would put the Top Chef cheftestants to shame. Neither of us could finish either of our entrees, but we were not sad about that - we were saving room for dessert! Again, we chose two to share. I got the Banana Pudding, and it was heavenly for this banana lover. It had the banana pudding itself, obviously, but the jar it came in was lined with salted caramel, vanilla wafers, and vanilla cream on top! The different components gave it a great crunch to counterbalance the soft pudding, and the salty/sweet combination was amazing too with the salted caramel cutting all the sweet parts! Our second dessert that we shared was the Sticky Bun. This tasted like Christmas in a little bun! Cinnamon, pecan, other spiced flavors - and topped with vanilla ice cream. If you're a fan of spice cake or cinnamon, this one is for you. Sooooo good. So if you couldn't tell from my novel of a review, we had the absolute best time at Marcus B&G in Atlanta. We left with VERY full stomachs (and empty wallets LOL) but we had no regrets. If you're a fan of Marcus or just a fan of really great food, definitely head to Edgewood and dine at Marcus Bar and Grille! read more

The moment I walked in this restaurant the vibes were just what I wanted and needed cozy yet grown up and intimate. I came here with a group of friends and we started off with two appetizers. We ordered the deviled eggs and cornbread. The deviled eggs I do not try but they looked delicious as my friends said and they demolished them. I definitely tried that cornbread which was big enough for all four of us to eat on and it was mouth watering. We decided to order a dish that all of us could share and that dish was called "The cookout". We had jerk chicken, bbq pork ribs, edgewood brisket, crispy potato, collard greens, caramelized plantains. The ribs were so delicious as were the collard greens and crispy potatoes. The brisket was ok although my friends said it melted in their mouth and they enjoyed the jerk chicken and plantains. I was happy that all 4 of us could share this dish with food still left over to take home. Service was great and I would love to come here again in the future. Parking is a little hard to find as you have to park on the street but if you can scope out a spot when it's not raining or peak hours it shouldn't be too much of a problem. read more

Been looking forward to visiting this one and it did not disappoint. Came in on a weekday night - a decent crowd, but not super packed. Really nice, romantic, ambiance. Perfect for a date night. Waitress was super knowledgeable about the menu, very pleasant, attentive, and offered great suggestions. I went with the seafood piccadilly. Delicious! Good portion size but admittedly, I would not have been mad if there were a tad bit more. Would definitely order again. 9/10. The hubby had the lamb chops. Beautifully cooked (medium well) and well-presented. He seemed to enjoy them. Will certainly return to try some other menu items. Enjoyable experience! read more

Marcus G Bar & Grille is one of those vibey, chilled spots that just feels good the moment you walk in. The customer service? Top tier. The food? Made with soul and love you can taste it. If you're visiting Atlanta, planning a dinner date, or just need a lowkey grown-and-sexy spot, this is it. The aesthetics take me back to being in my grandparents' entertainment room vinyl playing, everybody laughing, real memories being made. It's nostalgic in the best way. I grabbed the prix fixe meal (solid choice because you get a glass of bubbly ). The brisket was tender with real depth of flavor. The honey cornbread leans on the sweeter side but if you're a cornbread lover who likes that extra sweetness, you'll be happy. I've heard brunch gets packed, so definitely make a reservation. And Fridays? R&B nights with live music. Perfect excuse to throw something nice on, grab cocktails, and vibe with your people. Overall, the hospitality went beyond my expectations. Service was smooth, food was delicious. Parking? A little complicated but trust me, it's worth it in the end. read more

A friend invited me to a Brick Oven Special Event here, so I decided to check it out. I'll keep it short--right now I'm giving it 3 stars, but I definitely plan to come back in the next month for a second try. The Brick Oven Specials were actually sold out by the time we got there, even though they were still handing out the menu--which was a bit of a letdown. I ended up ordering the deviled eggs, ribs, and gnocchi. The deviled eggs were just okay--nothing close to the horseradish-kicked ones I used to get from a little deli in Dunwoody before the pandemic. The gnocchi didn't really hit either--kind of soggy and underwhelming. The ribs, though, were solid, and the mac and cheese was a standout--served in a mini cast iron skillet and really tasty. The restaurant itself has a fun, lively bar scene, huge TVs perfect for watching the game, and a super spacious patio. The interior decor is also really well done. I wasn't blown away this time, but I'm keeping an open mind for round two--stay tuned. read more

Horrible!! I was so excited and made reservations Two weeks in advance because I wanted to try Marcus samuelson's food and have been a fan for a long time. We were treated horribly from the moment we walked in and they kept seeing other people's reservations, but they would not see us even though we were standing there and first and we had our whole party there. Then the menu was nothing that they promised and advertised. And I'm sorry but the prices for the value of food just no. But all of that on Mother's Day WOULD have been OK we would have stuck around, but they had to use it so loud that we couldn't even speak to each other. It was worse than being in a club. We had to scream over each other. They also put us at a table in the middle of the floor and I was sitting normal and they kept telling me to move my seat so they can walk by me and they work there and they're the ones that put me in that table. Meanwhile, the lady behind me who is sitting in the middle floor, they didn't say a word to. Never again we left and went to Lady Bird where we were treated with respect the people there were so rude when we tried to order eliminated instead of Sprite she said that they were too busy to accommodate that lol... I'm sorry but Marcus Samuelsson needs to get some different staff and have some secret shoppers because that place is going to get shut down with the way they treat people and if he's not doing well it's because of the treatment!!! the picture included is what was advertised, but that is not what they offered. They only have like five options. Most of them were about $50-$60 didn't come with any sides and it was things like fried rice.... read more

Was serviced at the bar for an impromptu date. Very excellent and inviting for the generous happy hour they have from 5-7pm. Marcus Bar & Grille has a thoughtful layout of decor and open concept dining room. The M's cornbread was so soft, fluffy, and warm. Fried chicken tender sandwich was alright. Nice juicy tenders on brioche bun with a nice dijon mustard garnished pickles and lettuce. The cocktails were of decent strength and flavor. I would return to taste more items. read more

This is a homecoming review, so I give special attention because they were under pressure all day. This is my second time attending the restaurant, because we attended a private room brunch last year. However, this year we were seated in the main dining area, and we actually had an even better experience. Make no mistake, this is definitely a vibe. So whether you're visiting Atlanta or just need that Atlanta energy, hit this up on Sunday morning First of all, you cannot beat the selection of this brunch. From, perfectly fried catfish to expertly done cheese grits, this is definitely the place to both eat well and dress well. This is definitely the Sunday crowd you want to be exposed to when you visit Atlanta and if you live in Atlanta, you already know. Service here can depend somewhat on the server you get, but our guy was on top of everything, including the fact that we had three tables and over 30 people in the general area. Yeah, right! so I'll give them five stars for service 4 stars overall for food even though the breakfast bar was fully stocked, the dessert options were completely out of stock. My best friend had to actually get custom made banana pudding's, which they did oblige, so I do give them credit for that. But, dessert should be available for everybody not just for those who special order it. Looking forward to homecoming 2026! read more

My girlfriend and I chose Marcus Bar and Grille to celebrate our 2-year anniversary, and it exceeded every expectation! From the moment we arrived on a busy Saturday night (7 PM), the experience was first-class. We parked easily right out front. I had noted our anniversary in the reservation, and when we checked in, we were immediately and warmly greeted with a "Happy Anniversary" before being seated right away. The atmosphere was lively, well-filled, but comfortable. Our waitress was a vibrant young lady who started us off with an excellent recommendation: the "M'S Cornbread" ($14). It was huge, perfect for sharing, incredibly soft, buttery, and had that perfect hint of sweetness--everything you could want in cornbread! For drinks, I had the refreshing BAYAB FROZEN LEMONADE ($14) (gin, lemon, hint of orange), and my girlfriend loved her PCH RITA ($15) (spicy house tequila, peach, lime). They arrived right after the cornbread. For our main course, we decided on the COOKOUT ($85), which is advertised to feed 2-3 people. It was a perfect choice! We had ribs, fried chicken, and brisket, along with sides of sweet potatoes and collard greens. We also added the Macaroni and Cheese ($11). The kitchen is open, which was intriguing and fun to watch! Despite the restaurant being full, our food arrived quickly (about 10-15 minutes). Everything was delicious! The fried chicken was crispy and so flavorful. The ribs were incredibly tender and you could distinctly taste the wonderful charbroil flavor--so good! The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender and a very generous portion. The collard greens were amazing--a great blend of flavor and sweetness that didn't overpower. The Macaroni and Cheese was a highlight, made with sharp cheddar gratin and toasted breadcrumb, giving it a beautifully crispy top and a cheesy, decadent middle. To top off an already amazing meal, our thoughtful waitress brought us complimentary champagne as a sweet anniversary nightcap. The food, the ambiance, and the kind staff made this an incredible time. We are already planning our return for brunch! Highly, highly recommend Marcus Bar and Grille! read more

Went to this restaurant during a conference in Atlanta. It has beautiful dining area, nice clean bathrooms, & friendly smiling staff. We started with the wings, had some heat but not overwhelming, which we all appreciated. I'm sure they had more heat for those that enjoy that. Then the cornbread came out with butter and, I think it was maple syrup, not sure, but it was so good. Then the main course came out, shrimp & grits, chicken & waffles, and greens. A variation of Southern specialties. The shrimp & grits had some buttery seasoning. Chicken was crispy fried, waffles were thick and moist with some sweetness. Greens had some pleasant season as well. We all got ice cream for dessert. Great place in Atlanta! read more

Marcus Bar & Grille was amazing! I couldn't recommend this restaurant enough if you're in Atlanta. Marcus Bar & Grille offers delicious Soul Food with a Caribbean and Creole twist. The service is outstanding and the vibe was perfect. The recommendations did not miss and the attentiveness was just right; not overbearing whatsoever. Highly recommend the corn bread to start because it is phenomenal! I personally ordered the brisket, which was wildly flavorful! Those were probably the best potatoes I've ever had! The chef also personally came to greet us and was handing out plates himself. Can't beat this type of quality! Will be returning for sure. read more

Ambiance and Initial Thoughts: From the moment I walked through the door, I knew this place was that spot. The ambience is everything -- from the music that immediately sets the tone to the décor that gives "modern Spike Lee with a splash of 90s nostalgia." You can tell they put thought into creating a space where community, good food, and good energy all meet up for dinner. We had just sat down near the bar, and I was already impressed. Watching the team move behind the scenes, you can see the care that goes into every plate. The staff have this perfect balance of friendly and focused -- you feel seen, not rushed. The crowd is a beautiful mix of people vibing, laughing, and clearly living their best lives. It's giving grown-and-still-fun, not "we're too old for this." There's something special about a place that feeds your soul before the food even hits the table. The waitress took our order with a smile -- stay tuned for the next update, because if the food matches this energy? We might just have a new favorite on the map. Service and Food: The appetizers came out fast -- and I mean fast. Even though we'd only ordered one, the staff surprised us with another, which was such a thoughtful touch. You can tell they genuinely care about your experience here. Now let's talk about that cornbread -- hands down the best I've ever had. Moist and tender on the inside, a little crunchy on the outside, and that homemade butter? A whole experience by itself. It's the kind of cornbread that makes you pause mid-conversation just to say, "Wait... this is fire." Then came the wings -- crispy perfection without the grease overload. They were light, juicy, and seasoned just right. You know how some fried wings make you instantly regret your choices? Yeah, these aren't those. These are "I could eat another six and still smile" wings. A solid 10/10 across the board. The service throughout was warm, attentive, and smooth. You can tell the team here works like family -- they make you feel like you're part of it, too. Now, the main course -- whew. Let me tell you, this was easily one of the most delectable meals I've had at a restaurant in my adult life (and maybe even before that). We ordered the fried catfish with CoCo rice and red peas -- a combination that was clearly made with love and intention. Every bite was layered with flavor, yet perfectly balanced. You could literally taste the care in every forkful. And that mac & cheese? Listen... if you're a fan of creamy, cheesy, baked perfection -- this one's for you. It's giving cast-iron skillet vibes, golden edges, and flavor that hugs you like your favorite auntie on Sunday. I don't say this lightly: this is one of the best mac & cheeses I've ever had in a restaurant. The overall experience -- from the music to the energy to the food -- is a 10 out of 10. It's not just dinner; it's a vibe. Come here with good energy, an open mind, and an appetite because what they've curated here is truly special. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. Would I come back? Already planning it. read more

We arrived right before opening on a Saturday. The restaurant is really cute with a great ambiance--good music and an overall nice vibe. We decided to sit at the bar, and our bartender/server was very friendly and provided great service. The drinks were also really good. Unfortunately, the food was a bit underwhelming. My partner ordered the chicken and waffles. She said the chicken was good, and the waffle was soft, but it came out looking burnt. I ordered the fried catfish with red beans and rice, and honestly it was one of the worst meals I've had in a while. The fish mostly tasted like oil, and the beans and rice didn't seem fully cooked. Both of our meals also arrived not very warm. I will say that one of the managers came over, checked in on us, and was very kind. He offered some recommendations, and I ended up trying the gumbo, which was pretty decent--though it was missing the thicker roux flavor I usually expect. Overall, the drinks, vibe, and service were great. I'd probably come back for drinks and maybe to try the mac and cheese. read more

This has to be my third or fourth time coming here never a disappointment from the service. It just keeps on getting better. The cornbread is so delicious. It wasn't photographed here because we ate it before I could take a picture. We had the chicken wings that were also devoured before picture. . My husband had the burger and my son enjoyed the burger as well. I devoured my fish and that mac & cheese is really good. Highly recommend. come here for a nice chill vibe.
