I was super excited to see what the hype was about - despite the mixed reviews I’ve seen online. I opted to celebrate here for my birthday, and left very disappointed. Let me start by prefacing, I love steakhouses and went in with no expectations. The service of this restaurant is sub-par, at best. Our waiter was Hector, and he could’ve cared less about making this an enjoyable dining experience probably because a 20% gratuity was guaranteed with the party size. Not once did he ask if we wanted another drink, ask if we were there for a special occasion, or really put forth effort. The food itself - under seasoned and very underwhelming. I opted for the oysters, new york strip, lobster mac & cheese, and broccoli. Ironic enough, the best part of the night was the oysters - the one thing that doesn’t require cooking. The steak was not seasoned well, a little dry, and overall not worth the money. It was almost as if there was no butter or salt added. The birthday dessert was okay, but they served the cake freezing cold. I came into the restaurant excited and left severely underwhelmed with the overpriced & not good experience. Listen to the mixed reviews, and try any other steakhouse in Atlanta!

Amazing place! Attended a friends party and was blown away at the quality of food and service staff. Top tier restaurant! The environment is relaxing and beautiful. We were in the patio event space and had roughly 50 people. I had the salmon, 💯👏🏽🐺 the family style sides were excellent too. The dessert was the best I’ve had all year anywhere. 🍰 Upscale place with casual attire. Located right in Brookhaven in a great area. I highly recommend Arnette’s Chop Shop one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Atlanta 💎⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏆

This was a beautiful experience. I went on Valentine’s Day and I really enjoyed myself. From the valet service, to the overall service in the restaurant itself was top-tier! It’s was my friend’s birthday and we sat at the bar. Mary Beth and her counterparts were all extremely nice and attentive! The food and drinks were all very good. Times of service were excellent. 10 out of 10 recommend. Thank you to the entire team! I’ll be back!

Booked a corporate dinner for 30 guests, and everyone raved about everything. Food was quite tasty with some dishes more flavoral than others. My salmon could have used more seasoning, but my coworkers had no complaints regarding their entrees. Drinks were not the best. Their sourdough bread is amazing! Servers were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was lovely as we were on the upper patio on an unusually warm February night. All in all, this restaurant group does not disappoint.

Went there for dinner on Monday and sat at the bar. We were greeted promptly by Miguel who did a terrific job explaining the menu. We enjoyed the shrimp cocktail. The shrimp are good size, chilled & not over cooked. For the entree, we split the 45 Days Aged 28oz Porterhouse Steak cooked medium rare. It was absolutely delicious. Did not have to add anything to the steak. The vegetable, we ordered the Grilled California Asparagus. Again, not over grilled. Next time, we will order the Old World Tomahawk Steak. Annette’s & Miguel, Great Job….

This place was fire. I would highly recommend this restaurant! I got the lobster and grilled scallops… it was absolutely amazing, I was very impressed with how good the seafood was here! I also got the baked Alaska and boy was it good. Overall it was a great experience and the staff was absolutely fantastic.

I really wanted to love this place because it’s beautiful and the service was excellent but the food left a lot to be desired. First, there were gnats which was so frustrating because my partner had red wine which they kept flying around the glass. They also were a nuisance near our appetizers. I don’t think it’s from being unsanitary but there are lots of plants inside. As for the food the wagyu ribs were flavored and spiced well but they were too tough. It was hard to even slice through them. The crab cake was good but very ordinary; nothing exciting about it though it was listed as a special. For the entrees, my cowgirl steak was overcoooked. Again, it was seasoned very well and truly the missed mark was the temperature. I think the there are some good bones but for the price point, I’m not sure I’d dine here again without significant improvement to the food.

Arnette’s will be our new go-to for special occasions! We were celebrating our 5th anniversary and the staff at Arnette’s made us feel welcome from the very beginning. Our server, Mary, was so kind and had great recommendations and was very attentive. The entire wait staff was awesome; waters constantly being refreshed, plates taken, etc. They were on top of it! The food was incredible. Some of the best we have had. Even the valet staff were so welcoming and had a great energy. We will 1000% be back and would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fabulous meal, service, and atmosphere.
