Restaurants near Akers Mill Shopping Center

Premier Atlanta dining experience. Just as good as the first time we dined there 40 years ago.

Their famous kangaroo is served basically raw, the chef only does a light sear on each side, but the meat is rare, it tasted like steak to me. Their rabbit and pasta dish was really good, and I can’t wait to go back to try some of the other proteins like their salmon. The bread and butter they serve at the beginning of the meal is refrigerated/cold. I would’ve much preferred it being warmed up when being served, especially since the butter was cold and not softened. They were very accommodating with my party when it was taking us a couple of minutes to get situated before going back to our table. I also brought cake, and they were nice enough to store it for me during the dinner, and then bring it out with candles at the end of the dinner. I actually forgot to bring candles for the cake, so I was very glad to see that. The bill was around $230-$240 for five people. We had three appetizers and four entrées, 1 alcohol drink. I requested we be sat next to one of the windows, and they were able to honor that request for my birthday, behind the restaurant with the outdoor seating is so insanely, gorgeous, I completely understand why it is used commonly for weddings.

Excellent food and service - great comfortable atmosphere. David was our waiter and he was excellent, made our experience top notch! If you’re in the area, you should plan to make a stop here - you won’t regret it!

Wonderful experience at Hal’s The Steakhouse! After a warm welcome by everyone at the door, Brian greeted us and provided impressive service throughout our meal. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly while offering helpful insights for the dishes we considered. The food was amazing! The bread - INCREDIBLE - crispy with a savory spread and served warm. We were told it’s flown in three times a week from New Orleans. SO WORTH IT! The lamb, served in a sweet/tangy sauce, was awesome, as was the chicken served over mashed potatoes and gravy. The flavors in this dish had a southern comfort kinship while remaining light and delicate. The main room of the restaurant was lively and louder than the area where we sat. We had requested a quiet spot in our reservation for quiet conversation. Our spot worked wonderfully. We look forward to visiting again!

Blue Ridge Grill is always one of the best dining experiences in the neighborhood. From the moment you pull up, to the hostess stand, to the waiter/waitress experience, is always great. Every time I take a new guest to the Blue Ridge Grill the restaurant immediately becomes one of their favorites. Highly recommended.
