50 Best American Restaurants in Marietta

“It was a lovely meal, only complaint was that we were seated outdoors on a cool rainy evening & asked four times for the heat lamps to be turned on. It was never done, so we were uncomfortably cold & didnt want to linger. Don't understand why that would happen at such a nice restaurant... too noisy inside for a hard of hearing member of our group so at least we all could have a nice conversation during our dinner. It was unfortunate it had turned rainy & cold.“

“Very good, Waffle House-style restaurant.“

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

“Love this. My daughter and I go there often. Food is very good and prices are reasonable. Friendly people work there. Have a great pork stew and over rice is great“

“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.“

“Stopped at Marietta Diner for dinner while passing through.

The menu is honestly a journey all by itself. Traditional diner food? Yep. Italian? Yep. Greek? Yep. Mexican? ALSO YEP.

I went Greek - Chicken Slouvaki with a salad, while my hubby went straight for the chicken parm and pasta. And obviously we couldn’t leave without dessert. 😋

The portions were huge, everything was delicious, and the whole place has that classic neon diner vibe that makes it even more fun.

I only wish this place wasn’t five hours from home because we would absolutely be regulars. This is officially a worth-the-stop spot on any road trip through the area.“

“Absolutely delicious and out of this world service !“

“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.😁“

“Just wanted to drop a quick thank you to the wing for allowing us to host our annual Fantasy Football Draft at their place last night.

Our server, whose name escapes me.. did not miss a beat taking care off our entire group. I must confess, the wings looked phenomenal as they usually are, but a lot of us were too busy making selections to actually eat.

Thanks again to the entire crew at the wing, you guys did a phenomenal job, and we hope you will have us back again next year.“

“Billy is the man never been there before and right away we were able to relate on 80s bands stuff but I loved being there for a first and it’s fun and great service the staff was very respectful and quick when anyone needed someone for a drink or anything especially on a Friday I hope to go there again one of these day and the music was awesome this place knows how to have a good time!“

“Our bookclub meets here monthly. The food has uniformly been excellent, plentiful (especially their salads), and affordable. The tomato bisque is lovely, as are their panninis, grilled veggies, and my favorite mashed potatoes. The management and staff is responsive to special needs, for example making sure our bookclub has sufficient table groupings and holding off on orders so they arrive together. You do order at the front counter, and then they bring you your food. They also clean up afterwards. The chairs and seating are a little bare bones, which is the reason for 3 stars for atmosphere, but they are clean and sufficient to the diner's needs, including both counter and standard height tables.“

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

“I’ve been ordering from them since they opened and I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad meal! I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOVE this place. The food is always fresh, always hot, and always amazing!! Whatever yall doing.. KEEP IT UP 💪🏾 *pictured is what’s left of my catfish Cajun pasta*“

“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++“

“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!“

“I love this place. Great food. Excellent selection of beers, and the staff are amazing. Two thumbs up 👍 👍“

“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!“

“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.“

“We had a wonderful dining experience! Great service, food and atmosphere! We will be back and I highly recommend to everyone!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“This place is a hidden gem to watch sports games. I'm seriously hoping to gain traction to be a Bill's Backer Bar. Drinks and food are spot on. They have more big quality TVs then any sports bar I have ever been to. They properly season their food. Don't be fooled by the almost vacant shopping center or the exterior. What's inside is what counts!“

“Excellent service. Will recommend.“

“Chef Q and Crew does an AMAZING job at whatever you could possibly decide to order off the dinner menu or the Sunday brunch menu. All the brunch especially is a 10/10 my favvv thing to order is the CAJUN strimp and grits. The team moves pretty quick considering serving guest and delivering catering orders. Definitely a top tier experience at The Eating Spot for special occasions and casual day to day meals like burgers, wings, and fries⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I'll be honest I have not tried the food yet, but the service that vibe in this place was very welcoming. My name is Arturo. I am from Arizona. I just moved out here to Georgia and Kelly treated me like a regular. I will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“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“

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

“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! ✨“

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

“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.“

“Many delicious choices! something for everyone..“

“Always love coming to McCrays. Live the quick seating, great menu, great beer list and fast service. Want to watch a game this is a great spot. Bring the kids or just hang with friends, all is good. Love their smoked wings, the chicken fingers are a family favorite.“

“Delicious burgers, meatballs, yucca fries! My party of 4 enjoyed every bite. We’ll be back!“

“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.“

“All of the servers at this location are friendly and helpful. I most often sit in Leslie's section. It is so nice to come here and see a familiar face. They always knows what I want to order and that's refreshing. The servers stop to chat when they're not busy. They really value their customers and make them feel like family.“

“Love that the restaurant helps with team fundraisers. We went there to support the OP 10U Piranhas and realized their food is amazing! The wings are some of the best I had. Loved the buffalo sauce. My son loved the chicken tenders. And my wife loved the chicken salad wrap! Will definitely come back! @otterschicken #10UPiranhasLoveOtters“

“Every time I visit this location, I am greeted with such hospitality and professionalism from Amanda and Tasha. They keep their restaurant operating smoothly while providing an exceptional customer experience, I can’t recommend this place enough!“

“Kim made my IHOP experience truly unforgettable. The food service was impeccable; the food was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious! Kim, my server, went above and beyond to make my meal special. I came for a regular breakfast and left with a family-like experience. Please visit IHOP and ask for Kim; you won’t be disappointed!“

“Fast Hot Meal. Coffee is great 👍“

“Our office orders lunch from here just about every Saturday. The staff is always so kind, polite, and helpful, whether I'm picking up or placing a to-go order. Even when they are crazy busy, they do their best. I've walked in when it's been empty but the to-go orders are backing up, when it's slammed, and when there are only two people on staff. No matter how it's going for them, they are always very nice, and I really appreciate that. Thank you for taking care of us! - Meg @ Georgia Landscape Supply“

“One of the best meals we’ve had in the Atlanta Metro. Great service, reasonable pricing and right on Marietta Square. Already planning our return visit.“

“Came here late at night because I hadn’t eaten all day and there’s nothing to eat at home and I was too lazy to cook and delivery apps are expensive as hell so I came in to get my usual and both the cook and the waitress host. Lady were very nice and attentive food was as expected, and I left satisfied.“

“The environment is very nice, the food tastes very good, and the service is also very good!“

“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.“

“Our male server was fantastic.And the ladies serving up the food in the cafeteria style line were friendly. But the cashier, who's been there for a very long time, was extremely rude on my last visit. She snapped my boss and she would not give me change for a $20, so I could leave a tip for our server. She told me she couldn't, because she needed it for the customers. I was a customer, and she refused to break my $20. I had to end up leaving my server a handful of coins instead of bills.“

“I've been going to Mazzy's for over 5 years and the food and service has always been great. I was in a pool league, so was there almost every week for a while. They recently got new pool tables and stopped allowing smoking in the pool area which is nice. Great crowd of people and always a nice evening.“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with this bakery! From the very beginning, they were exceptional in every way, communication, creativity, design, and price.

They created a custom cake for my son’s rehearsal dinner, and it was absolutely stunning. They took our vision and brought it to life beautifully, paying attention to every detail. And as gorgeous as the cake was, it tasted even better. It was incredibly delicious and received so many compliments from our guests.

What impressed me just as much as the cake itself was the level of service we received. Every person I came into contact with was genuinely pleasant, helpful, and accommodating. You could truly tell they cared about their customers and took pride in delivering both exceptional service and a high-quality product. My special thanks to Jessica for her outstanding communication and coordination.

They helped make a very special evening even more memorable, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful, delicious cake and a bakery that truly cares about the experience from beginning to end.“
