50 Best American Restaurants in Marietta

“My husband and I had a wonderful meal at Spring. The service and food were top tier. We can’t wait to see the restaurant after the renovations and eventually try the new location when it opens.“

“Great experience as always, but it was our first time for lunch. There was a fun holiday vibe when we went and a lively atmosphere. Fiona was wonderful, attentive and friendly. We started with deviled eggs and calamari which never disappoint. The sandwiches (BLT and Fish Taco) were very generous portions. Will definitely be back.“

“Very good, Waffle House-style restaurant.“

“The menu is biiiig! Everyone can definitely find something that they like! Since I’m from Poland, I couldn’t resist to try their version of “pierogi ruskie” in the creamy sauce with chicken. They passed the test!
Overall, it’s worth to check out. I will have to visit it probably like 50 more times to be able to try all things on the menu 😅“

“Our first time here and it was so good. Service was excellent from start to finish. Had burger and fries and they were perfect. Had pork belly for appetizers the taste was so good. Can’t wait to go back and try the shrimp pasta.“

“Great service and delish menu options. Great wine selection.“

“Good service and friendly Staff“

“Best fried shrimp I’ve ever had in my life. They got the best burgers and best chicken too. I couldn’t recommend a better place if I had days to think about it. I recommend this place to everyone I know, family, coworkers, and friends too.“

“Thank you to everyone at Waffle House unit 791 for making our breakfast and our dining experience this morning fantastic! Thank you and we appreciate y’all! Have a great Sunday!“

“Pretty nice and laid back place, that's also 24hrs. Even though, they only have 1 pool table, it's quite spacious with plenty of seating room and standing room. Live DJ's, karaoke, bingo, cornhole, etc. Also, I was surprised they had an outdoor part as well. Definitely will come back.

Parking: If in front parking has been taken up, right next door has plenty of available parking as well, with no inconvenience whatsoever.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have the curb right in front, with plenty of ♿️ parking available“

“We've been here a many times and always had a good experience. The paninis and salads are top notch. Food is fresh and they use high quality ingredients. Service is good and prices are decent. Highly recommend for a great meal you will feel good about.“

“This is a great place for family or an outing with friends too! Service can be a little slow only because they get insanely busy.
Listen when I say, the Coolio's Zamunda Fire wings are TOO HOT TO CONSUME. Don't let curiosity get the best of you. Don't do it to yourself. They should honestly make you sign a waiver to eat them.“

“Reunion is a secret spot in East Cobb that few know about. I'm looking for healthy meals & Ilene, the owner does a great job. Husband & I have been several times - the Menu is such that I want to come back again & again. My favourite is the lemon, caper, artichoke chicken main meal. My hubby loves the trio of seafood. The appetizers are sufficient as a main meal, the beef carpaccio is highly recommended & the artichoke appetizer is AMAZING! We love dirty martinis & they make Perfect cocktails 🍸 Reunion is our beautiful spot to go, we sit at the bar or at a table & always have brilliant service. In my book, after several visits, Ilene and her team are always gracious, welcoming and most elegant. 5 Stars 🌟 and more from us!“

“Great breakfast. Good service and caring wait staff. Never disappointed at JC.“

“Absolutely delicious and out of this world service !“

“I play guitar at the open mic here on Tuesday nights. I really like this place. My waitress Quinn is the best of the best when it comes to service. The food is always good, and the atmosphere is always a good fit for me. They are also biker friendly, and that's important to me. I give them an A++“

“Loved the fondue dip and it was my Birthday surprise🎂🎂🎂“

“Second time my husband and I have come here for their Taco Tuesday deal! The three tacos I got were perfect! And you can’t beat $3 chips and salsa. It also happened to be kids night so they had Zootopia playing and tbh, it was cute and we didn’t mind it! They also had multiple screens on with the news and football - so something for everyone! We will definitely be back for another night (possibly trivia night or live music night!!)“

“Amazing lowkey restaurant. The food is always so good when I go as I do go a lot. The bartender, Indie, is really great. She does her thing when it comes to any drink you may ask for. Brandon is one of the managers and will make anything that you have an issue with right. Diamond is also a manager there and she is awesome and very nice whenever we come in. Zee is a really great server there. She’ll make sure you get your order and you get it right.

Turkey Smash Burger is BOMB. Sweet potato fries are fresh and so good.

Lamb chops were good and tender. Mac and cheese and rice were also amazing.

Mozzarella sticks and wings highly recommend.

Their drink specials are great. $5 lemon drop is my go to!“

“Had the Easter brunch with complimentary mimosa. $75.00 per person drinks extra. The three of us enjoyed our time. I made reservations nine days prior with asking for outdoor seating. When we arrived weather was good but they were not seating outside. Disappointed not to have outside seating. Nice buffet but the cake was previously frozen and apple pie not homemade. The lemon petite tart was not made with fresh lemon. Probably frozen previously too. The ice cream bar had only vanilla and cool whip topping. The strawberry and chocolate syrups were flavored. For the price charged a couple of real signature desserts would have been great. The macaroni was great. The salmon, chicken and beef were good. The ham was not a a good choice and was not at a carving station as described when I asked about the buffet. Fruit was good. Since this is the first since Covid 19 I’ll give for credit for a nice presentation.

Parking: Easy to park“

“Ordered here two days in a row while visiting with a friend in Atlanta. The food was good, arrived quickly and was not cold. On the second day, today, I ordered three omelettes, along with other items. One of the omelettes ordered, called for mushrooms, the other two did not. The second two were supposed to be identical. For some reason, mushrooms were added to one of the other orders. However, I did not order mushrooms because I am allergic to them. Unfortunately, I tried to call three times, but only got a message stating “we’re not available now, please call again!” Other than this mishap, which could have been really bad had I not noticed the mushrooms and consumed them, everything else was good.“

“We eat at Marlow's a couple of times a month and it is always great. Our server Keeley this evening was awesome and whomever the bartender was mixed me the best gin martini of my life.😁“

“We have always enjoyed taco Mac…“

“Great place for a date night. Sit at the bar on the weekend and Luke will take great care of you. Lots of places to go but we keep going back to see Luke, the best bartender in Marietta.“

“We came to Mac’s for my husband’s birthday and loved it. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was classy, and the service was great. We will be back!“

“First time here last Saturday night. Sat at the bar around 7pm. Bar was empty. Restaurant tables doing a steady business. Bartender was very nice. Burger was very good but bun was so soggy you had to eat it with a knife and fork. Onion rings and tots crispy and good. Fries soggy and did not eat. Would go back but definitely order the burger with "the bun on the side". Soggy bun and fries.could have been because they sat at the kitchen window too long before being served. All and all a pleasant experience and close to home for a burger and a beer.“

“After staying awhile from the Delk Road location, I was pleasantly surprised with all of the positive changes. Joe the waiter was awesome and the new manager Christine genuinely cared about my feedback and overall experience. I will be back soon!“

“Thank you Clarence for making us feel welcome! Our first time vist. Staff was also nice and kind. Food was great!! See you again soon!“

“Absolutely AMAZING place to go!! Great food, great staff, fast service!!! This is definitely my new favorite place!!!“

“The food is absolutely delicious and super fresh!! Highly recommend coming to this location. Staff is friendly. Eating area is clean and did I forget to mention how good the food was.????? Hit the spot!! Flavor ,presentation and overall quality. It’s all there. If you haven’t been, you’re missing out.“

“This is my go-to spot in Marietta! Normally I stick with the cheeseburger (a solid classic here), but this time I wanted something on the healthier side. I spoke with the owner, Kelly, and she recommended the chicken salad — and I’m glad I listened. It was fresh, flavorful, and honestly hit the spot in a way I didn’t expect.

Kelly is great — friendly, down-to-earth, and clearly cares about making sure people enjoy their meals. That kind of personal touch is why I keep coming back.

I’ve posted a picture of my chicken salad so you can see why I’ll be ordering it again. Between the food and the people, I can’t recommend Mulligan enough.“

“Sometime food isn't hot. A quick trip to warm it takes care of it. Food is otherwise great. Service is attentive even though this is a cafeteria and you pick out your own food. You take your food to your table, but help is available. Just like every food establishment, prices have gone up a bit.“

“Highly recommend! The staff was great & the food was delish!“

“Had an awesome meal at Walk-On’s in Marietta, and Lysa was the highlight of our visit! She was super attentive, made sure our drinks were always full, and had a great personality that made us feel welcome. The food was fantastic, but the service made it even better. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Go there regularly. Food is always fresh and so tasty! The buffet has lots of options, especially on the salad bar. The staff if friendly and keeps your tea glass full, the tables cleaned, and takes care of any special needs.“

“Scott is the best! We sat at the bar for the Harry Potter pop-up and had the BEST time! Thanks for the magic, Scott! ✨“

“This is the best little sandwich shop around. The salads are always fresh and over flowing. The sandwiches are also fresh as can be and a challenge for one person to finish. The folks there are always smiling and great to deal with.“

“Great waiter ( don’t remember his name). Fast service. Great decor. Loved the patio. Visiting from Columbus, OH.“

“Fast Hot Meal. Coffee is great 👍“

“This little place was awesome. We had the best bartender I’ve had in a long time. Timber was awesome, she was very sweet and nice and made our evening great. Wished there was a lil more food selection. But the drinks and atmosphere was excellent. Would highly recommend going there.“

“Excellent service. Will recommend.“

“We hired Gabriel’s Bakery to make our wedding cake. Every single flavor combination we had for our tasting was absolutely delicious! We chose a simple design. The cake looked beautiful and tasted great on wedding day. I do need to share that their wedding cake coordinator is extremely slow to respond to emails (I’m talking 10-14 days), and there isn’t a direct phone number to get in contact. When we went in for our consultation, she was very knowledgeable, explaining everything from the design and structure to the logistics of wedding day delivery. I feel like their pricing is very fair compared to most vendors in Atlanta. Overall, we would work with them again, just make sure you plan way in advance due to delayed response time.“

“The service was great!!“

“I highly recommend this chain! It breaks up the monotony of the other quick service bowl restaurants. They offer unique seasonal options for sauces and I love that they will give you the sauce and dressings on the side and you can administer it yourself. Fell in love with the jerk sauce Summer 2025 and I can’t wait to stop by again to try what’s new for fall 2025. Smart concept, quick service, healthy food, and lastly, I love the fact that they offer MOUTHWASH in the restroom.“

“We ate breakfast here on the way to drop our daughter off at college, and Julian was our server. He is such an excellent person with the best energy and positive personality. He absolutely made our day! Thank you, Julian!“

“Great service from all staff! Food and atmosphere awesome!! Look forward to going back!!“

“I love the different options of food But when it gets to Mexican fruit they have to learn to know and handle them properly I was there yesterday and I love tunas but in this case the way they cut them it could be dangerous eating invisible tiny thorns that might stick on your tongue or throat and end up in a lawsuit It was a shame not eating some yesterday Other than that I love the food there“

“Great food and they can handle a crowd well! #eastpauldingxclovesotters“

“My wife and I go to a wine tasting couple times a year here. It is a little pricey but it is a fun thing to do and the wine is good and the food is excellent. They serve appetizers with each two pores of wine. Recommend getting a full glass of wine and a separate appetizer when you get there.

Vegetarian options: They can accommodate some vegetarian options. But many of their appetizers do have meat.

Parking: Parking is in a large shared strip mall parking area.

Kid-friendliness: This event is not for kids. Many couples are there spending an evening away from their kids!

Wheelchair accessibility: The space is on the ground floor. The door is a single door, but I don't know if there's any wheelchair accessible seating. Most of this is at a bar height.“
