Lovely evening at gardens followed by wonderful dinner with friend on porch at Longleaf. Our food was delicious (artichoke and spinach flatbread and open-face chicken shared - perfect!), wine delicious & our server very attentive.

Great Service and Location. The Duck confit was overly Salty. The Rabbit Terrine was actually a Cold Rabbit Pâté(good) but they didn't have the correct breads and substituted with toast. Fish and chips were good. Expensive for a 50\50 experience.
Hot and tired, we immediately enjoyed the air condition oasis of the Longleaf restaurant. Once cool, I truly enjoyed the hot coffee we ordered. We shared salads and a hot bread with toppings. It was like a fancy pizza and good. I liked that they allowed sharing. The biggest negative was that our waiter gave us poor service. Getting a coffee refill and more cream required finally asking the manager to help us. Of French heritage, the manager charmed us with his delightful personality. A big plus: the waiter, attractive and with a gorgeous smile, struck me as a person who will correct himself, learn, and succeed. We will go back.

Service was excellent. Our food was good. The restaurant was clean and very well laid out. This was our first visit to the Gardens in several years. It is a totally improved and beautiful place. Thanks, Roy H. Jump, Jr.

Absolutely delicious! Our table guests had the risotto and a charred broccoli salad with salmon. The wait seemed longer than usual, but the food did not disappoint. Sitting outside with friends on a lovely afternoon made the meal experience quite pleasant.

A perfect place to have lunch on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The Longleaf is located inside the Atlanta Botanical Garden and a better location would be hard to find. The food and service were great. After enjoying a wonderful meal we walked off the calories in the gorgeous garden. Highly recommend!

With a reservation we were seated at our exact time. The service was great and the food was tasty. The menu had changed since the last time we visited and we were looking forward to items no longer available but the replacements were just as good. The weather was perfect for having lunch outdoors.

It was exceedingly lovely to sit outside on a warm spring day amid the garden. The food was quite good, the drinks good. Our server was so slow and spacey it was almost comical. But we were in no hurry, so the meal was wonderful.

We had a delightful lunch today at Longleaf. The smash burgers and fries were delicious, the setting warm and inviting but the best part of our meal was our kind and competent server. Robyn was caring, helpful and appropriately attentive.

This was my first dinner at Longleaf and it was such a wonderful experience I know I will come back. The service was stellar, the ambience was amazing, and to add to all of this was an excellent mean!!
Overpriced busy food guaranteed to have at least one ingredient to offend every palate. Food was oversalted which was a head scratcher since their main client base seemed to old ladies on diets. Understaffed enough that poor wait staff needed roller skates. Tiny water glasses that will rarely see refills.

Service is terrible....be ready to wait. Dad with 2 daughters sat down and ignored for 10 minutes. Not even a..."hi, we'll be right with you." Extremely limited options on the menu. Your best bet is going through the restaurant and ordering at the quick cafe. GOOD LUCK if you want to wait for TERRIBLE SERVICE!
What a lovely restaurant in such a beautiful setting. Had a fantastic lunch sitting outside facing the garden. The server was polite, attentive, and charming. We were even grey y the restaurant manager. Will definitely go back and enjoy the wonderful food and ambiance. Definitely 5 stars!

A restaurant we used to frequent and enjoy. It has been going downhill lately, and yesterday was abysmal. They could not seat us 15 minutes before our reservation even though there were many empty tables both inside and on the patio. Then we waited 20 minutes for water. The appetizer arrived with the entrees and the beverages ten minutes after that. They used to have a wonderful chicken salad sandwich; it is now two tablespoons of chicken salad served open-face on hard-as-tac, over-toasted sourdough--smothered so as to be invisible under limp greens. Yuk!
