Food and service are amazing. Perfect place to celebrate an special occasion. The trout and the brussels sprout are a must, for dessert you should try the chocolate vanilla cake.

Very impressed from start to finish by all the details the employees take care to notice. Warmly greeted by the host, who mentioned a birthday we were celebrating. Seated to a table with happy birthday decorations and a Hershey kiss at each plate. Fresh bread with soft butter served - and they have GF roll which was a pleasant surprise! Waiter was very kind and efficient.

Foods we ordered:
- chicken breast. One person got it the way menu said. I subbed baked potato for whipped potatoes as I can’t have dairy. I’m also gf and the assumed the sauce for the chicken had gluten, so mine came plain. I wish they had just confirmed with the Chef versus leaving it off. They did bring me some out separately
- trout with arugula and lemon. The friend who ordered this said it was delicious. Perfect portion size!
- beef short rib - my husband got this and said it was ok, he’s had better. Apres diem has a better short rib in our opinion for cheaper price

Dessert. We were very pleased by the complimentary birthday desserts / they brought out a cream brûlée and ice cream cake on the house (we were celebrating 4 birthdays, all within 2 weeks of each other). Our server sweetly brought me out a DF sorbet as I couldn’t have either complimentary dessert.

They ended with giving each of us a chocolate mint, which was delectable

Loved the ambience! Very mountain lodge vibe. The minute you walk in, the mood is set, from the sights and smells. I loved how the staff cared for each detail of our meal. The food and service was very good. I highly recommend!!

We had dinner at Blue Ridge Grill on Saturday, 03Feb’24 at 7pm and were pleasantly welcomed by the host and seated immediately. Water and bread (warm bread with soft butter) were offered immediately by a friendly busboy and server Dean welcomed us and asked for our drink orders. Dean was pleasant and professional. We ordered a draft beer and the Aviation Martini, both were good. We ordered and enjoyed the dates wrapped in bacon (highly recommend 😉). Our entrees were the filet mignon and the braised short rib (no bone) cooked perfectly as ordered. The only disappointment were the crispy brussel sprouts. They were not crispy and were mushy inside (I would not order them again based upon this). Overall a very nice evening dinner at The Blue Ridge Grill. I do recommend the restaurant and will dine there again.

Came here for my bday (November 14th) and the food was incredible. No complaints there at all. The mussels were so good. Service was very lack luster and the waiter seemed annoyed or bored, but I understand people have off days.

Everything we had was fantastic, except the "rack of lamb". What came out were four tiny, overcooked lollypops. For this they charge $70? Maybe I had a misconception that grilled "rack of lamb" would have been an actual rack of lamb. The mussels on the other hand were superb. Best I have had in years. Beets in the beet salad were boiled and a bit mushy. Would not recommend.

Service was average at best. Had to ask our server to open our bottle of wine, kept filling water glasses by pouring into glasses on the table splashing everywhere, and when entrees were served, the food runner placed my entree in front of the person next to me. When I said something, she picked it up and literally dropped it on the table in front of me and rolled her eyes as she walked away. She should be working at Applebee's.

This was our first time here and I was expecting a level of service much higher. Food was excellent, and would eat hear again, but would not order the overpriced "not really a rack of lamb".

This is the best restaurant in Buckhead. Always elite food quality and service. I am fortunate enough to work very close and have been here many times. With out hesitation and with great confidence I go here whenever invited or the suggestion is made. The restaurant and private dining rooms are the most comfortable, clean and orderly of any place I’ve been in Atlanta. 💯👏🏾🐺

Beautiful decor, especially during the holidays. We come here at least for the lobster bisque and wedge salad - two of their iconic selections - but we’ve had many fantastic meals here over the years. The bar is well stocked with quality liquors and the bartenders are skilled at their craft.
