24 Best Steakhouses near Decatur

“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.“

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

“Fantastic food, atmosphere and service.“

“I've been to many a fine steak house in my time (not trying to brag) and been served some of the finest cuts of meat all over the world (again, not trying to brag). But where Bones stands apart from the rest (and I do mean the rest) is that it has the best gift shop t-shirt in the game. I give it 3 Michelin stars for that reason.

Now, I only eat at bones.

pros: steaks, high-quality t-shirt
cons: no natty wine“

“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“

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

“Stopped by for breakfast on our way to our final destination. The Sprite was not quite Sprite initially, but our waitress promptly and politely replaced our drinks. The steak was excellent, and the food overall was pretty good. Good music and nice atmosphere.“

“Caitlin crushed it! easy to come back!“

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

“Perfect steaks and amazing service!
We had a fantastic dinner at this LaVista Road location. The steak (I ordered the Victoria’s Fillet) was cooked perfectly to medium-rare, seasoned beautifully, and incredibly tender. Of course, we started with a Bloomin' Onion, which came out hot, crispy, and fresh. Our server was attentive, kept the bread loaf coming, and made sure our drinks never went empty despite it being a pretty busy evening. Highly recommend this spot for a great, consistent steak dinner!“

“This is a big sit-down restaurant. The service is friendly and competent. Toniesha took good care of me. You’re going to wait around 30min for your food and you SHOULD. Good food takes some time to cook. This isn’t McDonald’s.

My food was perfectly cooked and I enjoyed every bite! Even the lunch salad had beautiful steak on it. The kitchen staff clearly cares. The staff is also knowledgeable on recall information regarding the kitchen and the scares in the news.

Great experience!“

“Our server was KC and he was AMAZING!! Next visit if he's not working, I won't be sitting down to eat. He's the reason for the 5 star rating!

The chef was a little heavy handed with the seasoning on the tonion.“
