Best Casual Restaurants in Buckhead

My husband and I celebrate our anniversary at Chops Lobster Bar every year, and it never disappoints. The service is always impeccable—attentive, professional, and welcoming. The food is consistently high-quality and absolutely delicious. From the perfectly cooked steaks to the fresh, flavorful seafood, every bite feels like a special occasion. It’s become a tradition we look forward to, and we can’t recommend it highly enough for an exceptional dining experience.

A stunning experience across the board! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was excellent, and the ambience was on point. I will DEFINITELY go back!

They seated us in a high traffic path and It was quite loud due to them blasting the music but otherwise it was a great meal! Really good value and I’ll definitely go back!

Be mindful, as a diner/customer to ask what the price of the specials are (if that matters to you). I know a5 wagyu is premium, but I was shocked that a small portion cost more than two steaks, lobster, and sides combined. Everything was delicious, as always, so this little mistake on my part won’t deter me from visiting again.

What a wonderful experience! This is the first restaurant I explored during my visit to Buckhead and I would absolutely repeat this choice! Beautiful yet simple atmosphere. Amazing music choice. Gorgeous plating and presentation of my meal. Creative libations as well (I didn’t get to try the smoked Palo Santo beverage but it smelled and looked delicious)! I started with the wood fired prawns, which were a generous serving size, moved to the lamb meatballs. The lamb was excellent! Didn’t leave a crumb behind! I left room for an espresso and chocolate mousse and was glad I did. Beautiful from start to finish! * ALSO: as I was leaving I noticed that they were holding a cooking class right in the center of the restaurant. If I was a local, they would see me there each month for that class. This is a must experience if you care about local, seasonal and mindful dining!
