Best Restaurants for Foodies in Norcross

This was a great time. Food was pretty good and service was excellent. It was a little pricey but our server Quo was very helpful on what to get for the value of your buck. And if you don’t know what to get she is very patient and will help! I appreciate Quo for answering all our 100 questions and helping us out. Will definitely request her again!!

This was me and my husbands first time and it was for our anniversary. It was a phenomenal experience. They allowed me to select Anniversary on my reservation but had no idea they were going to acknowledge it. Everyone wished us a Happy Anniversary and we even had a special menu and complementary dessert. It was so special and the food was EXCEPTIONAL! Hubby wanted a steak and he was sooo impressed I was too and I’m not a steak eater but I LOVED IT!!!! Truly made our anniversary dinner one to remember.

The Alden has an intimate setting which is perfect for a special night out or a culinary adventure. I was celebrating my best friend’s birthday and the staff were genuinely friendly and attentive, making the entire experience feel personal and welcoming. I’m no food critic, but I can recognize fresh, high-quality ingredients, and Chef Jared and his team delivered that in every dish—10/10. Sitting at the counter was the highlight; it’s the best seat in the house. You get to watch the chefs in action, adding a layer of entertainment to the evening. Each course was perfectly timed, creating a seamless dining experience. The combinations of ingredients and pairings were nothing short of fantastic. Some dishes featured bold and unexpected flavors that worked together beautifully. The quail and scallops were my favorites—flawlessly executed and deeply satisfying. I also appreciated the global influences woven into the menu, which made each dish feel like a small journey. And let’s not overlook the fact that Chef Jared is as talented as he is handsome—a fun bonus to an already unforgettable meal. They gave us a birthday treat to top it all off. I can’t wait to go back to experience other dishes.

Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.

The lamb chops never fail!! Iya was our server and he was FANTASTIC! We never had to wait as he made sure our water was always full and he checked on us the perfect amount! He was so kind and really knew the menu! Thanks Iya for great service!
