Bacchanalia's 5-course set menu is consistently called one of the best meals in Atlanta. The dinner is worth its price, but dishes can be ordered a la carte at the bar for those who just want a taste. Read more

Trending in our hottest restaurants in Atlanta is Bacchanalia, a new American take on french food. Their 5-course prix-fixe menu is quickly becoming a favorite in the area. Read more

The desserts employ the best seasonal fruits & the most rewarding combinations of flour, butter, & sugar (I especially love the ethereal cranberry soufflé with pink peppercorn ice cream). Read more

Bacchanalia has ditched its tasting menu for a la carte, but it's still serving some of the best food in Atlanta. Joe Schafer is running the kitchen. Read more

I traversed to this incredible restaurant on #HalloweenNight and IT CHANGED MY LIFE! The #primebeef #tartare, #gulfcrab #fritter, #JamisonFarm #lamb, #seahive, and #pearcustard #tart were PERFECT!

With Thai pepper, avocado, grapefruit, and coconut, the little crispy Gulf Crab Fritter is one of Atlanta's best-executed dishes. Read more

One of the best restaurants in the country. A Top Chef at a Top restaurant. You don't just come here for dinner, you come here for an Event. Come prepared to be dined like you never have b4.
Stephen BenjaminDecember 18, 2012
The wine pairings really complete the tasting menu. It's a lot, but you can opt for a half portion. The vegetarian dishes are the best, IMHO, as many ingredients are sourced from their own farm.
Jennifer Kjellgren ~ Nest Realty AtlantaFebruary 22, 2013
Ahh Bacchanalia. La crème de la crème, the tip top, the highest standard restaurant you'll find in Atlanta. Expect to spend no less than a couple hundred for dinner for two.

Be sure to leave room for the fantastic cheese service at the end of your meal. In all of my global travels, I have never seen such an incredible selection.
Nikki NickersonJune 6, 2012
Ok- it's fancy so go on a special night and have a long delightful four hour meal that is done by some of the best folks in the business. Professionalism at it's finest.

The 'Capone' corner table is the best seat. It's super romantic and you can see everything. Everything on the menu is great and they have gluten free options.

Michelin-star quality in Atlanta; the service is impeccable. A little known fact: You can order a la carte from the four-course menu at the bar. Read more

In the center of the polished, high-gloss dining room is Bacchanalia’s semi-private dining table. A set of curtains encloses the table so that guests feel secluded in the haunt ambiance. Read more

FIVE STARS for Bacchanalia - if they are already booked for Valentine's Day, go the following night. Hands down, one of the best (if not THE best) restaurants in Metro Atlanta.
AJCApril 24, 2013
Be sure to note that the seasonal menu is a four-act play: appetizers, entrees, “cheese and contrast” and dessert. Read more

Sometimes a fritter is just a fritter, but the gulf crab fritter at Bacchanalia is one crusty crustacean that tops CL’s 100 dishes list. Read more

Try the Prosciutto And Sweet Butter Sandwich - Only two slices of prosciutto and just butter. Very European. When you have the best ingredients, you don't need a ton of it.
EyalNovember 9, 2012
Prix fixe seasonal menu, beautiful space, great plating/presentation. First two courses set the bar so high that the rest actually disappointed. Still high scores for the place.
Colin LeeDecember 27, 2016
Good value prix fixe menu; service is very good. If you're used to NYC Michelin stars, I'd keep expectations lower
Margo MoskowitzAugust 1, 2013
Might be one of the best meals of my life. Listen to whatever the server tells you and you will be VERY happy (and VERY full.)

Try the Cucumber And Dill Salad - Creamy yogurt lightly acidic and Tangy dill finish the salad. Refreshing on a hot day like today.
AmateurConciergeOctober 24, 2010
Best restaurant in ATL? So I heard, and tho I went a la carte at the bar, i don't doubt the claim. Gnudi, tuna crudo and the paramount crab fritter....silly.
GourmetLiveOctober 18, 2010
A mature restaurant, but never a dowdy one. Bacchanalia has a southern aesthetic but by no means antiquarian, meaning country-fried sweetbreads with artichokes, and quail stuffed with mortadella.
Chef Alexis Union Hill KitchenJune 30, 2012
Try the Fritatta - Potato goat cheese fritatta. In a muffin size. Great to share and great way to control calories.

Don't forget to stop by star provisions bakery for complimentary baked goods on your way out (yummy cake balls and bread tonight)

The Crab Fritter is still one of the five best things I have ever eaten. See hot home retail trends three years before they happen by browsing Star Provisions.

Try the Fried Shrimp Po' Boy - Not greasy with spicy mustard and perfectly briny shrimp.

Fabulous!! A super splurge, but well worth it!

Everything. Anything.

An elegant seasonal menu where almost everything is grown or raised on the chef's own farm.

The Crab Fritter is a knockout. You can't lose with the rest of your choices.

The coconut macaroon in the petit fours plate changed my life.
Creative Loafing AtlantaNovember 29, 2011
The $85 prix fixe buys nothing short of quality, but you can order cheaper at the bar. However, the the farm egg with wild mushrooms was way too salty.
