Underwhelmed by the service. 4 men at our table & we had to ask for water twice before we were refilled. For this price point & caliber of restaurant water is served in heavy, cheap glasses. Martini's are 1/2 glass at $25. a glass. Not clearing dishes before new dishes are brought to the table. The food was excellent although the steak was a bit salty. Crab mayonnaise was not great. Escargots was good, as was caesar salad. Cote de Boeuf was great, as the Reserve steak.

Marcel is marvelous. The 1930s Paris Bistro ambience and decor means you are stepping into another world. The service is friendly and attentive. The food is out of this world (Escargots, dover sole, Filet Madame, Escalloped potatoes, 10 layer chocolate cake). A favorite dining spot for special occasions.

Everyone was attentive and delightful. Nick and Vino were especially professional and accommodating. We had a wonderful anniversary celebration.

Someone should check in with the staff here. You can feel the tension. No one smiles, they are all extremely serious and unfriendly. The host in the beginning was extremely rude and passive aggressive. She set the tone for our experience early on. We were sat and waited 40 min for a steak that was undercooked, we ordered a side that never came out. $190 tab for a terrible experience. I rather have went to chilis. Do not recommend.

The service, as always, was impeccable. My ratings are relative to a prime steakhouse. We had the 42oz porterhouse for three. Unless the bone weighed 25oz, it was way under weight. The three of us had maybe 6oz each. It tasted good even though it was definitely more rare than the medium we ordered. The Pomme Aligot sounds awesome. It's just meh and very hard to serve and eat. We had 8oz filet, 42oz porterhouse, 3 sides, 1 glass of wine and 2 soft drinks. After 20% tip it was $600. This menu is priced at the extreme end of prime steakhouses. Only one steak under $100, 8oz filet. It's good, it's not $600 good. I'll do Rathbun's next time.

It was okay, lamb was mostly bone and fat. Steak was good, fries were good. Oysters and ceased salad are a must.

Great food and service. Made our night super special. Will be back every year to celebrate!

Aaron was fantastic! He helped to explain some menu items and listened to our bad Dad jokes. Was very attentive and his team that helped with the table were wonderful as well. Also enjoyed the communication before the reservation to ensure the birthday details were accurate. We come here at least once a year and would love to visit more. I set the noise level to high but their acoustic setup allows you to easily hear people at your own table. We love Marcel!

Earlier I had lost my reading glasses and as a result, I could not see the menu very good. This must have been conveyed to our waiter because he showed up with a box full of reading glasses, and I tried several until I found a pair that worked! Saved my evening.

Had 6:15 reservations on a Sunday evening, was greeted warmly, and seated right away. Our servers were Tucker and Jalen. Both were exceptional without being intrusive. Both were knowledgeable about the menu and Jalen deserves to be a lead waiter instead of an assistant waiter. He was very professional and went above expectations. There were four of us dining. Two ordered filet mignon and the other two ordered New York strip steaks. We shared four sides: 2 asparagus, mashed potatoes, and potato augratin. Everything was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. This is a high-end restaurant but the prices are reasonable. There's also very convenient garage parking. When in Atlanta again, we will definitely return.

Everything was nice. The servers was outstanding and we will definitely return to experience the food and service again.

Beautiful way to celebrate my 28th!! Thank you all for accommodating my request! Porterhouse was DELICIOUS and so JUICY!! Cypress was the name of my server he did excellent recognize his efforts please!

Gabriela

Food is definitely over rated. Staff and service was very good, very freidly. But food (other than the steak) is overpriced cafeteria food. Also, the ladies room was in shambles. (Midtown location)

Very overrated. Incredibly expensive without delivering on expectations. First, my filet mignon was as overcooked and too salty. After sending it back, the salt was replaced with too much pepper. A steak restaurant should respect the meat. Corn au gratin was heavy, thick and overwhelming. Fries were lukewarm, with tasteless accompanying bernaise sauce. Chocolate cake was too sweet to be called chocolate. Avoid this restaurant.

Came here for our anniversary. Kenn and Yancy were excellent in our service. The dry aged steak has incredible, deep flavor. Oysters Marcel were our favorite thing on the menu. Pricy, but absolutely worth it for a special occasion.
