You can't go wrong with a visit to The Blue Ridge Grill! I'm pretty sure it's impossible to mess up & order something bad from the menu. From the drinks & appetizers to the entrees & and deserts, all were impeccable 👌 with top-notch service to back it up. A must visit if you haven't, be sure to dress nice, it'll be worth it.

Food was amazing and Mitch did an amazing job guiding us through the menu. The atmosphere has a cabin homie feel and gives you the feeling of being up in the mountains then just outside of ATL.

I went with my boyfriend and was a very nice time, I have gluten intolerance and they have a special gluten free menu, that's amazing. Food was delicious.

We had dinner here to celebrate our 41st anniversary and our experience was amazing. First of all, a big shout out to our server, Dean, who is the epitome of excellent service, always checking on us to see if we needed anything. He is definitely an asset to this restaurant, professional, friendly, and never says no to any request we may have. We also love how they dress the table with chocolates and stuff and also how they printed our menus with Happy 41st Anniversary in the top of them. It really makes it seem so special and personal. The ambiance, as always, is warm and welcoming. And the food was delicious and done just right. I had the Georgia trout which is always a favorite of mine. And to top it off they gave us a complimentary creme brulee for dessert. If you’re looking for a fabulous place to celebrate a special occasion, look no further than the Blue Grill Grill.

Very impressed from start to finish by all the details the employees take care to notice. Warmly greeted by the host, who mentioned a birthday we were celebrating. Seated to a table with happy birthday decorations and a Hershey kiss at each plate. Fresh bread with soft butter served - and they have GF roll which was a pleasant surprise! Waiter was very kind and efficient. Foods we ordered: - chicken breast. One person got it the way menu said. I subbed baked potato for whipped potatoes as I can’t have dairy. I’m also gf and the assumed the sauce for the chicken had gluten, so mine came plain. I wish they had just confirmed with the Chef versus leaving it off. They did bring me some out separately - trout with arugula and lemon. The friend who ordered this said it was delicious. Perfect portion size! - beef short rib - my husband got this and said it was ok, he’s had better. Apres diem has a better short rib in our opinion for cheaper price - hamburger - both people who ordered this said it was very good. Though the fries were subpar - very soft and tasted like reheated frozen food. I would not recommend the fries - change it out for something different Dessert. We were very pleased by the complimentary birthday desserts / they brought out a cream brûlée and ice cream cake on the house (we were celebrating 4 birthdays, all within 2 weeks of each other). Our server sweetly brought me out a DF sorbet as I couldn’t have either complimentary dessert. They ended with giving each of us a refrigerated chocolate mint, which was delectable …. So yummy!! Loved the ambience! Very mountain lodge vibe. The minute you walk in, the mood is set, from the sights and smells. I loved how the staff cared for each detail of our meal. The food and service was very good. I highly recommend!!

I had a dinner meeting in January at Blue Ridge Grill. I selected the oyster Rockefeller and also shared the crab cake. The mustard cream was amazing. The Georgia trout was delicious. As a side dish I ordered the potatoes which were shipped. The asparagus was the choice of the another guest. They have a great wine selection and cocktails. Very professional staff, explaining the dinner options in great detail, and are very attentive. Definitely an extra special dinner experience.

Blue Ridge Grill is one of the most comfortable restaurants in all of Atlanta. The comfort factor is just the beginning. The service team at this restaurant makes for upscale dining with a personal component. The Waite staff are professional, intellectual, & joyful in their industry. 🇺🇸 The food quality is cooked to order prepared by a chef, always fresh & hot with the type presentation that you would hope for at a fine/upscale dining experience. Located off I 75 and West Paces ferry Road at the Northside Parkway exit. Blue Ridge Grill is a legendary Buckhead staple for lunch or dinner. Definitely in my top three restaurants in the city of Atlanta. Reservations required. 🥇

I went here for my anniversary and it was definitely worth the trip. The waitress was nice,but I wish she had explained that the sides were separate. Since it was my first time, I wish I had known that before ordering. However, she made sure our water cups stayed full. The food was delicious. We were given a complimentary ice cream pie, and it was delicious as well. They have complimentary velet service. There is mouthwash in the bathroom, which is good to freshen your breath after eating. I would definitely go back, but next time, I'd go back without my kid because it's definitely not kid friendly.
