33 Best Steakhouses near Brookhaven

“The Best Place in Atlanta“

“Bones had amazing service and the food was great. The standout for me was actually the hashbrown, which feels crazy to say, but it was that good. My whole table ended up ordering the mixed grill, so we all had the same plate to compare, and we all agreed the pheasant sausage was hands down the standout, even with how good the steak and lamb were. I was too full for dessert, but the ones coming out to other tables looked huge.“

“High end extremely nice restaurant. You pay for what you get!“

“Fantastic food, atmosphere and service.“

“July 05, 2025 Greetings, This evening, I had the opportunity to celebrate my 40th birthday, and to mark the occasion, my partner and I chose to dine at a fine dining establishment in downtown Atlanta. Regrettably, after we visited your downtown Atlanta location, it became clear that my hope for an outstanding dining experience was unlikely to be met. Upon our arrival, we had to wait despite having made a reservation several hours earlier. Eventually, we were seated at a table no larger than a nightstand. I immediately observed that, unlike the other tables, the candle on ours was unlit. This should have served as an indication of the service to follow. Once seated, we were presented with the menu and asked for two sweet teas. Soon after, we placed our orders. After waiting twenty minutes, we realized that our drinks had been forgotten. We subsequently reminded our waitress that we had ordered two sweet iced teas. After an additional ten minutes, our drinks arrived. Fifteen minutes later, our food finally arrived. Upon its arrival, I noticed a sticky substance around the $75 steak I had ordered. After considerable effort to cut into it, I tasted the meat and found it to be overcooked—its flavor reminiscent of a meal unintentionally left on the grill by an intoxicated cook. It was unsatisfactory, and I requested a remake. At this point, we had spent over an hour at your restaurant, and the staff began cleaning up. Finally, around 12:05 a.m., the re-cooked steak was brought out. Although it was an improvement over the first, it still did not merit the price of $75. Given that my potatoes were cold and the minimal ice in my refilled iced tea had melted, I opted to forgo the steak altogether. My partner, who is more willing to accept mediocre service, encouraged me to take the steak back to the hotel, which led us to request a to-go box. Ten minutes later, we received a small cardboard box, barely big enough for my food. Further, we were not offered anything to carry the sauce in, utensils, or even a bag. Shortly after, we received our bill, which totaled approximately $195.00, excluding gratuity. At that moment, I was overwhelmed with emotion and informed my partner that I needed a few minutes outside to collect my thoughts. I found it challenging to rationalize $200 for a meal arguably valued at $20 and customer service worth $10. Despite my objections, my partner insisted on refraining from discussing this matter with a manager. He wanted to avoid any conflict on my birthday. While I appreciate his noble intentions, I possess a strong aversion to inequality in any form. The treatment we received in an establishment that professes luxury and exemplary customer service was inadequate and perhaps a sign of your treatment towards Minority LGBT customers. We deserved a better experience. Although my birthday weekend was great, this experience was horrible. I am genuinely disappointed with my visit to your Atlanta location. I would have had a more satisfying experience at a more casual establishment, such as Texas Roadhouse, for a fraction of the costû. Sincerely, Gregory A. Reid Jr. Brandon F. Williams“

“We love the service and the best açaí in the region“

“I arrived before opening time and they welcomed me, and accommodated me!! Bob, the bartender was awesome!“

“Went for my boyfriends birthday, everything was absolutely perfect!! The phenomenal food and service were the best I’ve had in a while!!! The complimentary chocolate chip cookie and vanilla ice cream was an amazing way to end the meal. Evan helped provide a memorable experience for us!! Will definitely be back!!!!!“

“We had the most amazing experience this evening. Melissa was our server and she was just phenomenal. The food was incredible, Melissa was so attentive and kind with the BEST suggestions, the atmosphere was lovely and we are so sad we don’t live closer to come back more often.“

“Everything was perfect! The hostess was nice and attentive. The seating and atmosphere was amazing. The waiter was perfect, they worked as a team and we were attended to frequently. The food was amazing from the appetizers, the main course and the sides. Everything was PERFECT. Appetizer: Calamari Pork Belly Main Course: Dry Aged Ribeye Filet Mignon Sides: Mac & Cheese Mashed Potatoes Brussel Sprouts“

“Let the staff tell you about the things that aren’t on the menu! The creativity is outstanding, the flavor profiles will not disappoint you! 🥰This is now one of my favorite places to eat in Atlanta! We tried 3 different dessert.“

“The entire experience was amazing. The food is so delicious that it will make you dance in your seat with joy. Coming from out of state, valet parking was much appreciated. Our waiter Tyler was so helpful and fun. A perfect date day trip and meal. ❣️“

“No words to describe after 3 days of unsatisfactory at places you’d think otherwise. Wow Chef you know what you’re grilling! Will be back next time I’m in Atlanta and should’ve taken a picture of the beautiful cowboy ribeye that these folks made me! Cesar salad was 6 outta 5 stars as it’s hard to beat certain places. This Cesar is comparable to Ruth Chris’s Cesar!

“My daughter brought me here to celebrate my birthday. Everything was delicious, from our drinks through dessert. I can’t stop thinking about those goat cheese beignets. Our server was incredible. I’m looking forward to dining here again soon.“

“always a great time and great food. the atmosphere really has a unique feel“

“This place had been on my bucket list since before it opened, and after tonight’s dinner with a party of six, it largely delivered, with a few notable caveats worth knowing before you go.

The food is excellent and the ambience is great, but let me get into the specifics: We were seated at a large round table with comfortable but quite narrow chairs, worth noting if you’re broader in the hips. More significantly, the noise level is no joke. Multiple reviews warn about it, and they’re right: we were legitimately shouting across the table all evening. Perfect for a lively group dinner, but not the place for a romantic night out or a business meal.

The menu and website prime you for a leisurely experience, and they mean it. Our dinner stretched nearly three hours. Charming in principle, though less so when you’re straining to hear each other. Service also slowed noticeably between appetizers and entrées.

One frustration: on a $700 bill before alcohol, we were charged a credit card convenience fee. I understand processors charge their percentage, but at that price point, absorbing it feels like the hospitable thing to do. It left a slightly sour note on an otherwise solid evening.

I’d return ,but go in with eyes open: come hungry, come loud, and bring cash.“

“Went to Hal’s last night on a Monday night service was five star food was five star. Everything was absolutely amazing. This has been my fourth time there are 3 1/2 hour drive totally worth it.“

“When there for early VALENTINE'S night I was disappointed steaks were under cooked. Service was bad. Not worth the price we paid. Will not be going back.“

“My new favorite date night restaurant! Great food, great atmosphere! Our server Henry was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!“

“I visited SM44 ATL for Mother’s Day and overall I’d give the food about a 3.5/5 stars. The experience wasn’t bad, but a few things felt like they were missing something special.

I had the oysters topped with crawfish, and honestly that combination didn’t really work for me. My sea bass was good, although I think it would’ve been even better if it wasn’t served as such a fillet that was randomly placed on the plate. I substituted one of my sides for Brussels sprouts — the flavor was okay, but they definitely could’ve been crispier.

The lobster mac & cheese was good too, but I expected it to be a little creamier. The fettuccine was flavorful and they were very generous with the Parmesan cheese. Someone at the table ordered the crispy chicken over grits, but I didn’t personally taste it.

My martini was decent, but if you’re going to garnish drinks with fruit, it should be fresh. The fruit on top looked soggy and was falling apart.

Presentation overall was nice, although the mac & cheese presentation felt a little too casual for what seems to be aiming for an upscale/elegant dining experience. The atmosphere itself was interesting — more like a bar with dinner tables than a true fine dining vibe.

Overall, not terrible, but for the price and aesthetic, I expected a little more refinement in both flavor and presentation.“

“I celebrated my birthday at McKendrick’s Steak House last night, and it was hands down one of the best steakhouse experiences I’ve had. I ordered the New York strip with asparagus, Brussels sprouts, and mac and cheese — everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The steak was tender, seasoned just right, and prepared exactly how I requested. The sides weren’t just an afterthought either — each one stood on its own and complemented the meal perfectly. What really set the experience apart was the service. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and the manager was quick to step in and make sure we had everything we needed. That level of professionalism makes a difference. If you’re looking for a top-tier steakhouse in Atlanta that delivers both quality food and exceptional service, this is the place. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Sunday Funday !! Cornhole last week winners Team RTR !!!“

“I like this location a lot mainly because I've always had excellent service. I know a few hosts and servers by name and a couple of the managers and they've all been extremely pleasant and provide a level of service you might find in a much nicer restaurant. From the time you walk in and are greeted by Gray, Solomon, Sadie or one of the other hosts who are well organized and quite efficient when juggling people leaving, tables getting cleaned, and promptly seating you. Once at the table you're greeted very quickly by Emma, Mona, or Maggie to name a few of the wonderful servers and they offer you drinks and appetizers followed by impeccable service throughout the meal. You might have Maurice or Anthony check on you to make sure you're having a first class experience and that everything is exceptional. The food is very good and at a reasonable price point. I've had the filet, Outlaw Ribeye, renegade serloin, ribs, salmon, and the salad that's got strawberries and pecans on it and I've never been disappointed. They come prepared as expected at the temperature requested and accompanied by sides of choice and I've had almost all of them. Finishing up and getting a to-go box so I save room for the chocolate stampede. It's decadent and just half a piece will leave you feeling like you might need a driver to take you home. It's so rich and I simply cannot eat the entire thing in one setting. I highly recommend the place and any food item and if any of the aforementioned employees are there you'll be in very capable hands. I'm sure most, if not all, are very good but those are ones I've personally had the pleasure of dealing with.“

“Victoria is great, good conversationalist and very knowledgeable about the menu etc. she’s a great addition to the team, the restaurant is as always first rate“

“I recently visited Firebirds for Saturday dinner service and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, attentive, and professional, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The food was excellent, and despite the restaurant being busy, everything ran seamlessly.

A special thank you to General Manager Rowland and the entire Firebirds team for maintaining such a high standard of excellence. I look forward to returning and would highly recommend Firebirds to anyone looking for great food and exceptional service.“

“Caitlin crushed it! easy to come back!“

“Great food, atmosphere and service!“

“I recently visited Outback and overall had a good experience, although there are a few areas that could be improved.

The wait time was about 30 minutes, which is understandable depending on the time of day. From the beginning, the service was very friendly, and the staff made the experience more enjoyable.

The drinks and appetizer were excellent, both in flavor and presentation. However, the timing and order in which the drinks and food were served could be better coordinated for a smoother experience.

The main course took a bit longer than expected, which slightly affected the overall experience. Also, soft background music would add a more elegant touch to the atmosphere.

I especially want to highlight our server, whose attention and attitude made a big difference; thanks to her, my rating went from a 3 to a 4.

Overall, good food and great service, with a few adjustments that could elevate the experience even more.“

“Dallas was amazing as was the wine and meal we ordered!“

“Thank you Longhorn for saving the day. We had been planning my sister's surprise party for her 50th birthday for several weeks. Then yesterday the restaurant we been in communication with lost or didnt officially record our reservations for 30ppl!! Yard house Atlantic Station and The Battery deceived us, and now we were scrambling at the last minute to find a place to accommodate 30ppl at the last minute. Crystal calmed my fears and said come on. We came, we sat together and near each other. We drank, we laughed, we ate great! Thank you Tanner for your patience and service. Thank you Longhorn Steakhouse“

“Ordered their 6-oz Renegade Sirloin with a loaded Baked Potato and Mixed Green Salad. Chose Med Rare rare so it would be Medium on pickup. Perfectly cooked, 1” thick, nicely seasoned, and the potato was also perfectly cooked. The salad was fresh and crispy. Excellent takeout meal at a great price.

We also ordered a 1/2-lb burger and fries; it was cooked medium well as ordered and the lettuce and tomato were fresh and set off to the side as was the bun, avoiding sogginess. The fries weren’t crispy though, maybe from sitting too long in the plastic box, they were damp.

We would definitely order again. One thing that could improve- they did not respond when I checked in that I had arrived, and after waiting 10+ min I called. The meal was ready. they had just had not brought it out, maybe because it was a busy Saturday night but I hadn’t seen a single takeout order brought out in the time I was parked. The other cars in the takeout spots were empty so I think people dining inside were using the pickup spots.“

“Longhorn is very consistent across their locations. Food portions are excellent. The menu options are good. The lunch menu offers a good, inexpensive option to other fast casual restaurants. Service at this location can be hit or miss so don't be in too much of a hurry. Overall, this is a good location for lunch.“
