The Yummiest Steakhouses in Atlanta

STK Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 3.5 (2256) • $$$$

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at STK steakhouse, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the beautiful ambience - perfect for a romantic date night. I decided to start off with their happy hour, and the drinks were absolutely fantastic. The food was delicious, although I will say that the surf and turf dish was on the smaller side. Despite its size, the flavors were outstanding and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were all friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. I'm already considering going back today, that's how much I loved it. And to top it off, they offer validated parking for the first two hours.Overall, a great dining experience that I would highly recommend."

Ray's On the River

★★★★☆ 3.8 (1557)

"I can honestly say this was one of the best dining experiences I've had in Atlanta. Parking: I believe it's complimentary valet only but there may be self parking tooAtmosphere: upscale, riverfront, steakhouse vibes. Definitely check the dress code! The interior is very bright and open with incredible views to the river. The patio is just so lovely with a little garden.Staff: everyone we encountered was totally incredible! We felt taken care of without being crowded. Felt so upscale!Drinks: wine list was great! Food: alright here we go y'all. My partner and I split everything and I highly recommend that!Bread basket - worth it. We couldn't get a picture because it was gone so fast. It's not your average bread service with flavorful seeded crackers, raisin bread, and sourdough. Tuna poke (I think that's what it was called!) - oh my LANTA this was delicious. I don't think I've had tuna wish rice puffs before but it was a harmonious textural balance and totally let the tuna shine. Absolutely delicious.The wedge - sooooo delicious - wedge salads are just intrinsically good but their dressing was definitely homemade and the bacon shined bright. They even split it in half for us to share. Chefs kiss!Del monico ribeye Oscar style - I recognize that this is the height of luxury. The Oscar style is crab, a cream sauce, and asparagus. It was. Decadent. The steak itself was so incredible but with this add just put it into another category. Every bite was better than the last. Because we had split everything this was a perfect portion to split. Crème brulee - we were totttttally full after the steak but it was my birthday and they kindly brought this over but we ate it all up. Fresh, great berries, and a delicious way to end the meal. Price: this is definitely an indulgent meal. We were celebrating but it was steep. So worth every penny though!!! I hope I get the opportunity to go back!"

Agave Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.2 (1177) • $$

"First time there, and I definitely recommend that you go there. The restaurant has a complimentary valet parking and I suggest that you leave them tips.Chips and salsa are complimentary. The food didn't take long , and everything arrived hot. My husband got the grilled pork Chop, and I got the Pinto Beans & Green Chile Tostada. Everything was delicious, very well seasoned. The atmosphere was kind of quiet and intimate, and they have a fireplace that gives it that touch. Our server has amazing energy and very friendly."

Ted's Montana Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (1256) • $$

"This is a fantastic restaurant in the area, one of tue very few options in a busy tourist area. We walked in for a Friday lunch, luckily it wasn't very busy. The restaurant has wonderful interior, a huge bar, bunch of very well decorated booths. The menu is full of interesting dishes. I got the naked burger that had a bison paddy. It was a delicious burger. The bison tasted so good with melted cheese and all the other ingredients of the burger. We liked the huge crab cakes and citrusy lemonade. They have a small kids menu as well. Chicken fingers and fries were good. Service was excellent. Our server was so nice. Food came out within a decent time. Overall this is a great place to dine with family."

Marcel

★★★★☆ 4.4 (910) • $$$$

"Very special night. Amazing service ... never felt rushed. The waiter was very helpful with the menu. The location is hidden up the stairs. Dark, candle lit, and an old speakeasy feel. We started with martinis at the bar as we were there a little early. Mixed perfectly. Moved to the table where they serve a few pre dinner options .. olives, prosciutto and bread. We added an amaretto sour with a foam topping. The Caesar salad was tasy. The onion soup was a little salty for my taste.Dinner was a bone in ribeye and strip. Both cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The side was mashed potatoes.I give it 5 stars because it was a great experience. Do I feel it was $400 great? No. The prices are ridiculous."

Chops & Lobster Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (988) • $$$$

"If you want an excellent all around dining experience, Chops tops the list. One of Atlanta's staple, high end steakhouses-I've never had a bad experience here. The seafood and steaks here are fresh, seasoned, and wonderfully prepared to order. The Maryland crab cakes and the South African lobster morsels are perfect starters. Pro tips : Valet only charges $2 per car. The dress code seems to be more relaxed but still No athletic gear or graphic tee shirts (for men)."

Hal's The Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 4 (930) • $$$$

"I finally decided to give this Atlanta classic a try. I came on a random week night. They have no parking lot so valet is mandatory which was a bit annoying but I didn't want to take a chance on my car being towed for parking next door so I conceded and did valet. I sat at the downstairs bar. It was early so there were only a few other smoking cigars. The bar was a nice work station for the early evening. Eventually the place began to liven up and there was a piano player. I ordered salmon and a cesar salad. The salad was tasty and the piece of salmon was huge. However, the salmon lacked flavor so I had to request some sauce for it.The bartenders were nice and constantly checked on me.I would go back but I might try a steak and some of the other dishes they're known for."

Joey D's Oak Room

★★★★☆ 3.6 (909) • $$

"I'm not sure where to begin! It's rare for me to give a restaurant a full five stars, but if I could, I'd give this place 10 stars. I frequently find myself in the Dunwoody area and have passed by Joey D's multiple times. Intrigued, I looked it up online, and instantly, I was in love. The décor, the bar, and the food--all captured my attention in the pictures, making me even more excited to try it.So, this past Saturday, I finally went, and the ambiance upon entering was incredible. The dim lighting, festive Christmas trees--it was all so inviting. I can only imagine how wonderful it is in the summer months with their great outdoor seating. Our server, Amancho, was fantastic. He anticipated our needs, knew what we wanted before we asked--it was such a pleasure. Being our first time, he gave us a complete rundown of the menu, specials, etc. Shout out to him!My friend and I ordered several items, including the delicious Hibiscus Margarita. For appetizers, we had The New Orleans Spicy Shrimp, The Garlic Crab Claws, and The Fried Pacific Calamari. As mains, I had the Baked Shrimp Alfredo, and my friend ordered the Blackened Chicken Rigatoni. We couldn't finish it all, so we got a to-go box but saved room for dessert--a Sundae for two. It came in a huge glass with loads of ice cream, brownie, fudge, and whipped cream.I've raved about this place on every social platform. The host and all the servers were so kind and friendly. I loved the burgundy blazers they wore! Joey D's has easily become my #1 choice in Dunwoody, and I'll be back very soon. Thank you for amazing food, easy parking, and a great staff! This is how you provide customers with an experience!"

The Capital Grille

★★★★☆ 4.3 (607) • $$$$

"To add on to my original review, this location is not selective about your attire. It's come as you are, distressed denim and all. This adds to the appeal for me. When I want to dress up, I'm not out of place and when I want to dress down, I'm not out of place. Win/win. The managers Chris and Michael are Amazing! Servers Kenneth, Josh, and Asia are top tier. Cannot go wrong here!"

Cuts Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 3.7 (819) • $$$

"When my friend wanted to link up who was also in town to see the Commanders whoop up on the Falcons.. Lol, she chose CUTS. It was perfect because it's located footsteps from my hotel (Marriott Marquis), and I've haven't eaten there in YEARS!CUTS is an old school Steakhouse, similar to Capital Grille, however the pricing is surprisingly more reasonable. I was a bit underdressed, even though I had on some fresh new 11's, so we sat at the bar..LOL! My friend is a red wine connoisseur, so our cool azz bartender gave us a mini wine tasting. We were tipsy just from that. We decided on the "Educated Guess" and as far as Cabs go, this one is extremely tasteful and bold. We both ordered the ribeye and they were cooked to perfection and loaded with flavor. The broccoli was meh but they didn't offer my fav brussel sprouts, so CUTS, make that happen!! CUTS will be on my ATL to do list every time I visit this awesome city... Cya SOON!!PS., so caught up in conversation, I literally forgot to take pics.. oh well, next time..SMDH!!"

Dantanna's

★★★★☆ 3.6 (803) • $$

"I've been here years ago. And recently went here yesterday. And all I can say is wow. This place did not lose its value and good food. The employees are still amazing and well versed in the menu. The menu has a few changes but still amazing. This time I ordered a filet mignon and it was delicious. It came with two sides which I picked sautéed spinach and baked potato. Also, they were sweet to make me a non alcoholic mojito which i was craving. My husband ordered a flank steak which was amazing. My son fell asleep and didn't eat anything but woke up for dessert. We celebrated his bday early and it was a blast. The restaurant is set up in a glamorized bar style and also has cigar shop and cigar smoking area in the front. Love the stores around it and the mall in the area as well. This is a great choice if you like halal meat options. They have halal meat for this interested. I'll be back for whenever in Georgia."

Parker's On Ponce

★★★★☆ 3.8 (516) • $$$

"It's been a long time since we've been to Parker's. This was one of our first date night restaurants and we found ourselves in the Atlanta area for Valentine's Day, and decided to come back. One of the few restaurants that had both a vegan option and wasn't running a special menu. Whole experience was amazing. Roses for the women, and everyone on point to take care of everything you need. Service was perfect. Started with an old fashioned-orange nectar or something-and it was well balanced and delicious. We also split a house salad that was terrific. The dried cherries were a nice touch. I went with the something something chicken. It was baked to perfection and full of flavor. The mashed potatoes were good but nothing special. The brussel sprouts were terrific but obviously a ton of oil and fried for maybe a bit too long. Still wonderful and still full of flavor. I loved the dish. My wife got the grilled tofu which had a delicious Thai chili glaze. I'm so impressed with how good this meal was. I'm sure we'll be back again on a future visit."

The Oceanaire Seafood Room

★★★★☆ 3.5 (603) • $$$

"We came in Thursday night about 30-60 minutes before closing and sat at the bar. It was quiet and maybe 1 other person when we arrived; a cpl people and 2 couples came and it was a little livelier for a while. Initially the bartender was not attentive, but then seemed to adjust to the fact people were at the. At that close to closing. He warmed up in other words. He provided good service & made some recommendations.My husband ordered some raw oysters, my son ordered a cup of clam chowder, & I ordered calamari for us to start. They liked what they ordered & the calamari was cooked perfectly. It wasn't chewy or rubbery at all. And it was well-seasoned. I could do w/o the jalapeños in the tartar sauce, but it's easy enough to eat around them for the most part.I wasn't as hungry and ordered the seafood chopped salad, which is very good & full of fresh shrimp & crab meat. I took 2/3 of it home. The bartender informed me it's a pretty big salad & he didn't misrepresent it. I enjoyed it for lunch the next day & it was still good. My son ordered the swordfish with the blue cheese & liked it. My husband ordered the scallops. It's amazing how high food costs are in the U.S.! We were in Italy for a week & ate the freshest seafood for much less. 6 -8 scallops for $60 w/o sides is a bit much. ‍They shared the green beans & liked them.We like coming to Oceanaire as the ambience is nice & relaxed & the food are service are usually good. The restaurant & restrooms were clean."

ARI Korean BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.1 (402) • $$$

"This was my first time at high end Korean restaurant and omg all my K drama food dreams were fulfilled. This place is amazing. Our server was very nice and patient and explained everything to us. They cook the food for you in front of you. You get to choose one protein at a time with 2 sides. It's unlimited for 90 minutes. My favorite thing was the Wagyu beef and my favorite sides were the ramen and fried rice. Very nice seating and very cute black and white tile flooring. We really wanted to try their desserts from the cake shop in front of the restaurant but were extremely full. We ate the cake slices late night at my home. Those didn't disappoint either. Will be back for another family night!!!"

Ruth's Chris Steak House

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (604) • $$$

New York Prime

★★★★☆ 4 (385) • $$$$

"Hubby and I went on our date night, and completely enjoyed our dining experience. We got the absolute best service from Colton. He was so delightful and accommodating, and just a joyful presence. The food, oh my word. We are on a journey to find the best steakhouse in ATL, and oh my, the running is tight! We've had some phenomenal steaks & NY Prime did not disappoint!! All things considered, it was reasonably priced too...!!!"

Highland Tap

★★★★☆ 3.8 (415) • $$

"Parking in this neighborhood is not the best. There is a parking lot with valet parking for the customers. You can find street parking in the neighborhood. It never takes me long to get parking but I hate finding parking this way.You can clearly see the venue from the street at the corner. You must walk downstairs for the establishment. Please watch your step. Bar is huge and has a ton of drinks. Two people were manning the bar and they were busy the entire time. The service was still good. I ordered a Manhattan which was strong. The drink came in a martini glass and another on a chiller. Biggest bang for your buck.It was Monday so I got the Prime Rib special (10oz) blackened with a loaded baked potato. I sent the Prime Rib back to be cooked more because it was cold. It tasted good once I got it back."

101 Steak

★★★★☆ 4.3 (304) • $$$

"We had dinner reservation for 2 at 7:00 pm on Saturday, 12/2/23. The service was great! Valet parking. Unassuming from the outside. Very nice on the inside! Tall leather booths. Five stars for the steak. Four stars for the sides.We got way too much food, but we had leftovers! Here's what we got:- Tuna Tartare ($18): Good!- French Onion Soup ($12): Tasty!- Burrata & Prosciutto ($16): The burrata was great. Wish the prosciutto was saltier and had more taste.- 12 oz Filet Mignon ($72): Very, very good. - 16 oz 101 Steak Delmonico ($72) with Bearnaise ($3): Super good! The sauce was good too, but not necessary.- Creamy Spinach ($13): This was actually gross. It was a tiny bit better the next day, but I definitely wouldn't recommend it.- Cheddar Mac-N-Cheese ($12): Fine, better as leftovers.- Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Ginger Soy ($14): Super delicious.- Chocolate Layer Cake ($12): OMG. So good. The salt was all on the edge, which I'm sure looks great for decoration, but it made a few bites way too salty. The salt needed to be spread out more.We would definitely go back, just wouldn't get the creamed spinach."

Davio's Northern

★★★★☆ 3.9 (367) • $$$

"2nd visit and this did not disappoint. Went on Father's Day to celebrate an amazing person in my life. Had a stellar experience with Alejandro as my server. He was quite knowledgeable and extremely professional. My partner had the Chilean SeaBass. He stated it was very tasty. I had the applewood chicken pasta again. I also had the Caesar salad, Brussels sprouts and last but certainly not least... the butter cake. Omg it was absolutely delicious. The sangria was pretty good as well."

Yoi Yoi Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.9 (322) • $$

"We were craving sushi and stopped by for a few rolls. They seemed like a family-owned small business, with their daughters playing at a table - it reminded me of my own childhood! The service was super friendly. All the fish that we had was fresh. We tried a few Regular Rolls and a Tempura Fried Roll (Godzilla). The tuna inside the Godzilla Roll was cooked, which makes sense looking back, but wasn't what I was expecting when ordering.Since we went on my sister's birthday, we got a free Tempura Cheesecake! It was really yummy - the outside was crispy, while the inside was warm and oozy."

McCormick & Schmick's Seafood & Steaks

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (571) • $$$

"Beautiful ambience. Service was slow and non attentive. Entree's of salmon and fried shrimp were tasteless. Was a disappointment."

Beef Grill

★★★★★ 4.6 (224)

"Came here via a recommendation from my brother.. And this place did not disappoint. Parking is free. Establishment is very clean we went on a saturday and it was very crowded. Food is awesome! Service was stellar via Sebastian. I think in the near future when we return we will come during the week, as this place gets busy on the weekend and you can prepare to wait for 45 mins to an hour to be seated. The meats are actually better than the other brazilian places for what 22 dollars per person for the buffet. Beef Grill for the WIN!"

C. Ellet's

★★★★☆ 3.7 (318) • $$$

"Stopped by here before a game for late lunch. The Connecticut lobster roll was delicious. I'd definitely go back to order the exact same thing."

Sabores Del Plata

★★★★☆ 4.3 (211) • $$

"You can find Sabores Del Plata at 6200 Buford Hwy, Norcross, GA 30071 - this is the stretch of Buford Hwy that has major construction so much of the center is blocked - you may need to make a U-turn depending on which direction you're traveling - just an FYI. The parking lot is a bit of a mess as there are many businesses - coming during slightly off-hours is best.Sabores Del Plata is an Uruguayan-style steakhouse - that means meat and a lot of it, as the restaurant's signature dishes. The interior is low and a bit dark, perfect for the consumption of massive amounts of protein. I met with Laura C. to try the place out (as an aside, I couldn't make Daniel B.'s UYE when he had it here years ago). We arrived slightly before the lunch rush so seated immediately. The place filled up quickly so we placed our orders right away.We started with a couple of empanadas, which went quickly. I preferred the beef over the ham.For entries I ordered the choripan filled with delicious sausage. Laura got the Bandeja del Plata with vegetables and mashed potatoes (which sounded intriguing to her). Neither Laura or I was a fan of the potatoes although I'm sure others would like it.We finished up with the Chaja cake - three layers of caramel, peaches and cream. We both liked it a lot.Service was good with prompt staff and quick refills. In all a good experience - next time I'm getting a "death by meat" plate though. The Churrasco looks devine."

Blaze Steak & Seafood

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (497)

"Food was amazing!! The rice pilaf was definitely the best I've EVER had, trust me I've been to 24 states and 4 other countries so far Our server, Jeremy, provided top-notch service!! He and the bartender even did a b-day celebration for my bestie The music and overall vibe made the experience even better!!"

La Costilla Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (213) • $$

"I came on Taco Tuesday! Look at the pictures i posted for their menu on Tuesdays. If you looking for good Mexican food this should definitely be on your list of Mexican Restaurants to try out. The bartender was great and made good drinks. The tacos were good. They condiments of assortment of hot sauces. The place is average size but during busy times it can get really crowded. They do have a little patio outside to enjoy your food and/or drinks."

Nowak's

★★★★☆ 3.9 (150) • $$$

"The quest to try a new restaurant while shopping nearby led us to Nowak's. We arrived around 5 and sat at the bar. They weren't busy then, but many guests arrived shortly after. It's a really nice place. We were dressed casually because we came in on a whim, but the bar was laid back. We were greeted immediately. They have a nice variety of food options on their menu. I opted for a sidecar to drink and the steak frites for my entree. My husband ordered the NY strip with truffle fries. We both enjoyed our meals tremendously and discussed returning. I recently began following them on Instagram and they have great happy hour options."

Kiku Japanese Steak House

★★★☆☆ 3 (205)

"There is many items to choose from and veggies. The restaurant is clean and the employees are super nice. This was my first time at this restaurant. The food was delicious, but I was kind of shocked. After the food was cooked and we were eating, the chef took his hat off and waited for tips. I've been to many Japanese restaurants and never saw this move. Gratuity is already added on the bill. 18% gratuity at that. Sheesh! But, I didn't have cash so I cash app $15. I wasn't upset or anything, just shocked. I asked the waiter do they all have to share the gratuity, and he said yes! We may be back. :-)"

Terrazas Bar and Grill

★★★★☆ 4.3 (75)

Thos O'Reilly's Public House

★★★★☆ 4.3 (45) • $$

"Spectacular menu. I had the Irish Curry. Yes. You read that right. Curried chicken and peppers on a bed of steamed rice and a piece of naan. Very tasty. My friends had the Shepherd's Pie and the Cider Brined Pork Chop. The Shepherd's Pie was delicious. And my friend was very pleased with the pork chop. We visited for trivia night, and found the place rather quiet. Sedate, even. And I liked it for that very reason. I didn't have to compete with a loud sound-system to talk with my friends. I fear the next time we go, the place will be slammed with more fans of trivia. I guess as long as the menu doesn't change, I'll be happy."

Prime On Peachtree

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (60)

"Stopped here while happy hour hopping. Although we arrived after happy hour ended, we tried a few dishes that were still really good. We tried the yellowtail and the apple pie fritters. I'm not a huge dessert person bug the fritters were delicious. I would definitely go back for dinner and try more items."

Senor Tequila Grill & Bar

★★★★☆ 3.9 (35)

"So I originally went to the Chinese spot 2 doors up but they are still doing repairs to a fire that happened.Not feeling like driving to another spot and I was hungry so I walked down to here. It was around lunch time and it wasn't a lot of people in. I decide to get my meal to go. I ordered the New Mexican pasta w. Shrimp, chicken and steak. It is a new item on the menu and it was really good! I also ordered guacamole for my chips while I wait. The ambiance is cool, clean and up to date. I really like the bar area. Too bad I decided to give up on drinking. Other than that, you really can not go wrong here. And you get quality food for your bucks."

The Sleepy Potato

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (42)

"It was my first time trying it and it was SOOOOO good! I had a Chicken Philly Cheesesteak Potato. I was full and it was flavorful! It only needed salt and pepper. The wait wasnt long and they are masked and gloved throughout. I like that you can see them preparing and cooking your food. I didnt care for the aluminum foil "boat" they made to hold the potato as pieces of it break off into the potato. But honestly no complaints."

No Sauce’s Smokehouse BBQ

★★★★☆ 3.9 (20)

"Family let me tell you bbq has a new home its (Riverdale ga old-national hwy & 138) and I have driven all over Atlanta in search of good bbq from McDonough to Stockbridge Mableton Virginia highlands Kennesaw & Newnan and no one I mean no one comes close" No sauce smokehouse bbq the name says it all really it does no sauce needed but if you just love sauce it on point also the mustard & tomato bbq sauces are amazing truly different & the ribs fall off the bone you can taste the smoke it's perfect in my humble opinion with the sides and deserts to die for.No matter how far you drive you won't be sorry.."
