    One of the best, if not the best, dining experiences we’ve ever had. We chose to celebrate our anniversary here and the staff at Marcel made it such a memorable and bespoke experience. We felt so special. If you haven’t dined here before you definitely should!

    As always the food and service was spectacular. I ate this time at the bar and the bar tenders and waiters at Marcel are top notch, in attentiveness and in service. Steak was “ a pointe “, drinks perfect. Thanks for another great eve and dinner at Marcel.

    Dining at Marcel for my boyfriend’s birthday was perfect. The waiting area is quaint and comfy. We waited until our exact reservation, which is fine by me. The server and Somm (Nick) were a great pair, working in tandem to create such an enjoyable dining experience. We will most definitely be back for our anniversary!

    My first time at Marcel. I knew it was a steakhouse, but not sure what to expect. We were blown away. Our steaks were outstanding, and the service was beyond exceptional! The side portions were huge, and the steak sauce was fantastic. Highly recommend!

    The food, service and ambience were SUPERB. I can say there, you get what you pay for. It is a great place to celebrate “Special Occasions “, unless you have deep pockets. It’s not you average steakhouse.

    Beautifully appointed space. Was shocked upon entrance to a reservation I struggled to get that there was no host and the host we eventually secured seemed put out to help us. We had a nice waiter and Maitre d, but one steak came out undercooked and they were not able to deal with it satisfactorily. Ghastly service for the price tag. We had a couple of waiters serve food to our table that we didn’t order and also be busy peppering courses before everything had come out from the kitchen. Really sloppy for maybe the most expensive meal I’ve seen. I don’t live in Atlanta, I live in nyc, but this was pricier and yet sloppier than anything I’ve experienced.

    I think this place is overhyped. Yes, the food tasted amazing. We ordered a Caesar salad and porterhouse for 2 for our anniversary dinner with Dauphinoise and mushrooms for the sides. The service, the pricing, and the crammed in layout for the tables are what we’re underwhelming to me. Service: (before I say anymore, one server was very nice and polite and the other was a little nonchalant/disinterested) we needed water for about 15-20 minutes at one point and we waited for about 15 minutes for the server to come back so we could order. Then we were finished eating for about 15-20 minutes before we could flag down a server to help us get the check/box up the food. So to sum up we got our food at 9:00 PM for a 7:45 reservation. Spacing of Tables: we couldn’t hear each other talk because the tables to our right and our left were so close and the people were talking so loud. Just seems like it could be a better experience if they didn’t cram that extra table in there. Value: for paying $300 for a meal for 2, I’d expect a better experience. Again, the food was great but a steak I could make for $30-40 wouldn’t have tasted all that different than the one they gave us for $170. *they did bring us an anniversary chocolate treat and a menu that had ”Happy Anniversary” written on it, which we were grateful for*

    We had a lovely dining experience at Marcel. The wait staff was superb, the food was amazing, however we did not particularly like the oysters (thought it was going to be similar to an Oysters Rockefella, instead it had some kind of green liquid). All in all, the food was delicious.

    I’ve been coming here for 7-8 years the food has always been top quality and consistent always. I tell everyone it’s the best steak in the entire SE US. Something has changed the last 2 times I’ve come the food has been subpar connotes to usual. Hopeful you will fix the issue whether it’s new chef or new cooks but the food is not quite the same.

    Food and service was great but unfortunately when it came to giving me the bill I took a quick look at it and gave him my card he came back told me he gave me the wrong bill and he had charged my card twice but that the manager corrected it. “in a few it will drop right off” but never showed me the original bill. (It was a business dinner didn’t want to make it a thing) It was sloppy :(
