50 Best Cocktail Bars near Dunwoody

“The food at Mikata was absolutely out of this world—without a doubt, the best sushi I’ve ever had! The enoki mushroom chips are a must-try. They’re unique and unlike anything I’ve had before, but they are SO good. The cocktails were top-notch and perfectly crafted as well.

A special thank you to Brian and Julia for providing such a wonderful birthday lunch experience. We will definitely be back and highly recommend Mikata to anyone looking for exceptional sushi and drinks in Atlanta!“

We went for Valentines Day, last minute decision and while they were very busy with other customers , they took the time to fit us in and made sure we had a pleasant experience. The first time fajitas , this time branzino and carne asada.“

“Great neighborhood bar with amazing drinks and food.

Recently I had a not so good experience at the restaurant with one of the bartenders. Management handled the experience in a highly professional manner and the issue was resolved quickly. I will definitely be back and recommend Roshambo to anyone that wants a good meal and drinks.“

“Dining at Atlas in Atlanta was, without a doubt, the most extraordinary culinary experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been to several Michelin-starred restaurants, but nothing has compared to this. What made this evening so unforgettable wasn’t just the masterfully crafted dishes (which were phenomenal), but the people who brought the experience to life. Chef Money and his incredible team, including Maxwell, Julian, and many others, showed a level of hospitality and genuine kindness that I have never encountered in fine dining. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel not just welcome, but truly cared for. And the food. Every single bite was absolutely unforgettable. Each dish was a perfect blend of artistry, flavor, and emotion. You could feel the heart behind every plate. From the first amuse to the final bite of dessert, I found myself completely immersed in the flavors. Every course built upon the last, creating a seamless, delicious journey I didn’t want to end. This wasn’t just a dinner. It was a beautifully orchestrated experience filled with warmth, creativity, and connection. Chef Money and his team have created something truly special at Atlas. I left feeling full, grateful, and honestly in awe of what I had just experienced. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough. I cannot wait to return.“

“Celebrating my 75th birthday in an intimate room at Truth Be Told with my family and friends was truly a "knock it out of the park" experience. From the expert service staff to the decadent desserts, everything was superb. Executive Chef Matt Marcus and his team of professionals curated a culinary experience that my guests and I will long remember. The beef, ahi tuna, salmon, fingerling potatoes, and baby radishes with goat cheese were exceptional, as were the mini challah and flax breads. Thank you, Truth Be Told, for providing such an excellent and memorable experience.“

“Absolutely love Bey! The food is authentic and the drinks are amazing. Marc and his team are wonderful! We’ve had several celebrations here and have nothing but great things to say. We’re so happy to have Bey in our neighborhood!“

“Best ramen I've had in Atlanta. Very comfortable and quiet spot, highly recommended 🍜“

“Excellent cocktails, great for hosting events. Quickly serve your guest without the wait of making each cocktail and the quality is the same if not better than a bartender could make.“

“5/5 Stars! Y3S is in a league of its own. Between the personalized welcome from Diana, the expert service from Darius and Cam, and the incredible steak and lobster from Chef Milton, we felt like VIPs. They even made me a custom drink not found on the menu! We loved the bowling and the themed photo booth. If you want a place that treats you like royalty and nails every detail, this is it. Can’t wait to go back!“

“They were fabulous in service and setting for my book celebration party!“

“Here’s a cleaner, polished version for your Google review that still keeps your voice and hospitality insight:

Came to this restaurant after attempting to go somewhere else in the area, but I’m honestly glad we ended up here instead. Upon arriving, we were oddly greeted by a rude customer instead of an employee — their party was literally standing about five feet away from the entrance. However, the host handled the situation professionally without attitude or seeming bothered, which I appreciated. We asked to sit at the bar, and the host escorted us over right away.

Once seated, we were immediately acknowledged by the bartender. I hate that I didn’t catch her name because this young lady truly understood the steps of service. While the greeting itself could have had a little more warmth and introduction, she quickly made up for it in every other way possible. She stayed attentive the entire experience — got our drink orders quickly, checked back consistently, made sure we had refills, gave menu recommendations, and most importantly gave honest opinions that did not steer us wrong.

I won’t mention what I ordered because honestly, people should explore the menu for themselves instead of just ordering what everyone else says is popular. The food was enjoyable overall.

The only delay was the hookah taking quite some time to arrive, and our food did come out later than expected. However, she communicated the entire time, kept us updated, apologized sincerely, and immediately got someone involved to assist with the situation. That level of communication matters.

One thing I continue noticing at several restaurants lately — and this was no exception — is the lack of visible management presence. No manager was seen touching tables, checking on guests, or supporting the floor. Management visibility can truly elevate a dining experience, especially when issues arise.

The bathrooms were clean, which I always pay attention to. However, the lavender and vanilla gel beads were a little overpowering. Also, if the kitchen door is going to remain open, the visible areas behind it should stay organized, clean, and properly put away because guests absolutely notice those details.

Overall, the bartender truly carried the experience with professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality.

Bartender: Indie
MOD: Ice (had to ask the host)“

“Amazing staff and fabulous food and beverage options. Thank you for hosting us! Looking for a place to host a birthday gathering, team outing, or event. They have options for you.“

“The food is lit 10/10. The server I got, Mia, was super chill, friendly and super easy to talk to. Her service was amazing as well! Definitely recommend when passing through Roswell 👍“

“We recently enjoyed a Celebration of Life and a fabulous lunch at Dyar Persian Grill. Very cozy and intimate, very nice ambience and a full bar. They were very accommodating in every way, and the food was fabulous. After 40 years of marriage to a Persian (who is an amazing cook, along with his sisters), I’ve tasted a LOT of Persian food, and Dyar is authentic and delicious. Thank you, Alex, for a lovely day. Your timing, presentation, and portions were perfect and everything was elegant. And thank your friend, Peyman (our nephew, another chef) for helping to make the day perfect for our family to remember our brother, father, uncle, and friend, whom we love and miss.“

“Es un restaurante muy bello el servicio a mejora y la comida se porta a la altura ambiente agradable“

“We had a party of 7 and had a wonderful time and the food was amazing! Be sure to request Marcus R. as your waiter. Definitely 5 stars.“

“We went for the Mother's Day brunch. The food was absolutely delicious! Having the jazz band and flower bar were excellent additions to the meal. I don't like breakfast food or eat meat other than fish. There were plenty of varieties of scrumptious dishes for me to choose from. I will be returning!“

“Listen, I’ve been here twice within two weeks and I must say I will be back again. Rachel was our waitress the first time and she was sweet & amazing. The food was delicious, the hookah was smooth and the drinks (French 75) were good and strong. I must say this location is a timeless vibe!“

“Barrel Room is a nice relaxing place to get a drink. I ordered the Manhattan and a Old Fashioned. Both drinks were made perfectly. Bartenders was very friendly and attentive. I only ordered fries, but there is other bar food items available. There's also a outdoors patio, if you want to enjoy the fresh air.“

“Went there for my first time yesterday! Felt comfortable at the bar, the staff is amazing! Great drinks, fun music and yummy food!“

“Great service. Food was amazing, with nicely size portions. The atmosphere was nice, and elegant. I will be returning!“

“Great food, cocktails and service!“

“The meal was fantastic. I ordered the beef enchilada, and my husband enjoyed the nachos with beef, chicken, and shrimp—they were excellent. I want to give a special shout-out to our server, Alex; he was incredible—above and beyond—and I rated him a perfect 10 out of 10. Overall, the experience was wonderful, and yes, we’ll definitely return. We’ll be hoping to see you again, Alex!“

“a cozy gastro pub, with a friendly staff, great food, awesome patio and an amazing wall mural of a fox & owl..“

“We recently dined here for dinner after finding this place on Instagram. I can’t believe it took us four years to find this place and it was right around the corner. It was a Friday night and we didn’t need a reservation. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The chef even came from the kitchen to check on everybody dining in the establishment. I highly recommend the fried shrimp, fried Lobster, cheese grits, the Mac & cheese, fried chicken entree, the appetizer chicken wings. and all of the salad options. All of the food was high-quality and you can tell that stuff was made fresh with no shortcuts (NO CANs at the establishment). This is rare to find these days in this economy. The food will take some time to come, but that is because everything is prepared fresh so greatness takes time and it is well worth the wait. Trust me. Everything was very tasty on the menu and we will definitely return. This is a perfect place if you want some soul food in the Roswell/Alpharetta/John’s Creek area and there’s plenty of upfront parking. This is a family, friendly establishment and they welcome everyone. I highly recommend coming here and we will definitely be returning soon. Thank you for the tasty high quality dinner!“

“Our favorite neighborhood steakhouse. Tonight had the bolognese for the first time. I've been coming here since Kaiser's opened and I always have steak but tonight I walked on the wild side. The bolognese is sublime. My wife and I split an 8oz filet and the bolognese. Ryan the mgr picked out an outstanding Super Tuscan for our Italian themed meal. Palmer behind the bar kept our glasses full. Palmer and Derek (my wife says he looks like Travis Kelley) are a super team. We ran into Fernando while out and about today and he said he missed us. It's people like Fernando, Ryan, Bo, Palmer and Derek (and many I haven't named) that make Kaiser's Steakhouse feel like home.“

“Service was phenomenal.
There was only one chef so the food took a little extra time coming out, but it was worth it.

The Alfredo had a delicious cream sauce, and well-seasoned chicken.

The steak was cooked very well, and seasoned deliciously for the Super-Burrito.

It was taco Tuesday, and for $2, the tacos were a great add. Tender meat, and decent corn tortillas.

We found the Maracas sauce to be a little strange; we were getting a raisin flavor we think. However, the wings were crispy and well cooked.

House Margs were well-proportioned.

The big moment was when we ordered Don Julio Silver and the bar didn’t have any, someone on staff went and bought bottle to make our drinks.

The inside dining area is somewhat confusing. It’s a bar, club, restaurant all wrapped into one. But the music range was impressive, and overall a cool spot.“

“Sovereign delivered an incredible experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was top-tier, the food and drinks were on point, and the overall vibe was unmatched. What truly stood out was the staff and how everyone was amazing, attentive, professional, and made sure every guest felt welcomed and taken care of. Excellent customer service like this keeps people coming back. Highly recommend!

They even created a signature cocktail menu for our event!“

“I loved how beautifully decorated the restaurant is. It is definitely an AKA's dream brunch spot. Pink flowers and green furniture create a scene for any pretty girl to love. The food was good and reasonably priced. Parking was free and hassle free. Our waitress was friendly and doting to our needs. I recommend a booth for those soft cushions on your tush.“

“The service was superb and the food came out quickly. The food was delicious. We enjoyed three dips, meatballs, the chicken entree, the hamburger, and the salmon. All fantastic with lots of flavor. Will return.“
