21 Best American Restaurants in Alpharetta

“Went for birthday dinners for two couples. Sat outside which was wonderfully quiet. Service was excellent and accommodating to specific requests. Sweet potato shrimp fritters were awesome. Deviled eggs were good. Caesar and spinach salads very fresh. Two of us had the pork chop, which was excellent. Meatloaf was sliced and grilled by request. Signature old fashioned cocktail made not too sweet by request. Complementary desserts for both birthday boys provided. “

“The food definitely lives up to everything great that I’d read & seen on Facebook! The fried chicken was AMAZING, and so much food. LOVE that gravy! My husband seriously loved his shrimp and grits. It was my birthday, and the waiter brought me crème brûlée that we shared….YUM!! Best friendly waiter, and great atmosphere.“

“Great service Thomas is the best server and has outstanding manners!“

“We visited on Mother’s Day, and everything was fantastic from start to finish. We started with the crab dip, bacon-wrapped scallops, and calamari. The scallops were the absolute showstopper.

For our entrees, I had the prime rib, which was incredibly tender and honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. The rest of our group ordered the Chicken Marsala, fish tacos, and burgers, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

The food, great service, and overall experience made for a wonderful Mother’s Day celebration. We’ll definitely be returning and look forward to trying more of the menu!“

“Food was good. Server was great. Don’t know when it became acceptable for some guy to hang out at the hostess stand chatting up the hostess, but I guess it’s a very different world from when I did restaurant work.“

The food was very yummy and delicious. I got the jerk chicken. It was a bit spicy, tangy, and overall well seasoned. Can't wait to try their other options!“

“AWESOME EXPERIENCE! This was our first time at Coalition Wood Fired Steak & Seafood, and I wanted to create a memorable experience for my Lady's birthday celebration. Coalition did not disappoint! Their assistance in supporting my idea for this event was critical to its success. I have to shoutout the manager, and her staff for making me feel so comfortable with asking for their help. They were friendly and very encouraging. The service we received from our server was magical and he provided the most impeccable service for the entire evening. He was thorough, friendly, and answered all our questions as first-timers. Great food. Pleasant atmosphere. Wonderful service. This is what you look for in an evening out with a great dinner. Coalition is our new favorite spot and we are looking forward to a return visit.“

“A Truly Legendary Experience at Ted’s—Thanks to Alexis! Every once in a while, you come across someone in the service industry who doesn't just serve food—they serve joy, charm, kindness, and the kind of genuine hospitality that makes your whole day better. Enter Alexis, our radiant, sharp-as-a-tack, heart-of-gold server at Ted’s. From the moment my daughter and I sat down, Alexis greeted us with the kind of warmth usually reserved for long-lost family members (the kind you actually like). She knew that menu backwards, forwards, sideways, and with flair—guiding us with deliciously detailed recommendations like a culinary fairy godmother. And let me tell you—she wasn’t just juggling us. She had multiple tables, all full of folks, and yet every single person was smiling, satisfied, and clearly just as enchanted as we were. And while it would be easy to focus on how stunningly beautiful she is (because wow—she is), what truly shines about Alexis is her soul. She’s got that kind of inner light that just pulls people in—genuinely kind, attentive, and authentic. Whoever raised this young woman deserves a standing ovation. Gold stars. Medals. All of it. So enchanted were we that I asked to speak to the manager—not to complain (for once, ha!)—but to give this amazing young woman the praise she deserved. And wouldn’t you know it? The manager was just as delightful—gracious, present, and clearly proud of his team. As for the food? Delicious as always. Ted’s does not miss. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The restaurant was spotless, the team was hustling, and every guest around us looked equally well taken care of. It’s a well-oiled machine powered by smiles, effort, and apparently a whole lot of heart. Alexis didn’t just make our meal memorable—she made our evening magical. We’ll be back soon, and next time, we’re asking for her by name. Bravo, Alexis. And bravo, Ted’s. You've got a gem on your hands.“
