Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Norcross

The ambience was good and the service, amazing. The food tasted great but the highlight of our meal was the kunnafe which was fabulous! The restaurant is at par with other fine dining Persian restaurants in town. I will be going there again for sure (maybe just for the kunnafe :))

Food and service were great. Seating and quietness was great. Parking, even though, it is valet seems to be challenging entering and exiting. I actually got my own car as the attendants were taxed. Upon arriving to my car it was unlocked. That was a bit disappointing as our car was parked in a dark corner of the parking lot by the street. It could have easily been entered into without anyone noticing.

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.

We went to Colletta for a girls holiday dinner. We had outstanding service from Danny, who gave great recommendations and catered to all our needs. Was an excellent time!

Really nice restaurant. Excellent service and good food. I am glad we were in the back area as it got too crowded in the main area and was far more noisy. Overall a great restaurant with really attentive hosts.
