I've eaten here a few times in the last year and I love this place. Everything from the atmosphere and design to the absolutely suberb meals and service. The menu is very original but not so much that the true southerner would not find something to like and everything ...that my husband and I have eaten here gets a Ummmm..... this is delcious!!!!!!!! The servers are knowledgeable and friendly, which in this day and age is a rarity. I think that they get a later crowd than we like to eat dinner because the times that we have been there it has not been near full seating but I would reccomend this restaurant to anyone who truly loves a great experience and fantastic artistically inspired meals.

I went here with a friend for a saturday night fine dining experience. First of all, knowing that parking is a difficult in Buckhead, we decided to valet at the hotel. After battling a crowd, we were told the parking is 12 up front for 2 hours plus $8 for every extra ...half hour. We thought fine, we're out for a nice night, we can probably get done in 2 hours.\t\nWhen we got into the restaraunt, a 14 yr old looking hostess was very confused about what to do with us when we said we don't have a reservation. Mind you, at least 4 or 5 tables were open. After conferring with another hostess, she proceeded to seat us. The cheapest glass of wine on the menu was $11 - absolutely ridiculous even for a fine dining place. Fine, we order two glasses of wine and appetizers and wait. And wait. And wait. After what seemed like at least a half an hour, the waitress finally brings us drinks. I ask where is the bathroom - and am told to go upstairs down the hall around the bend and some more turns. Fine if this is a local bar, for a fine dining place, I expect the bathroom to be on the same floor as the main dining room. Ok, no big deal, maybe the food will make up for it. We order ribs and shrimp. The ribs are good, nothing special though, and the shrimp is overcooked. Being familiar with the restaurant industry, it just seemed like the shrimp sat in the warming window for waaaay too long waiting for the other dish and thus tasted rubbery. Throughout the night, we had to keep reminding our waitress about our requests, and she proceeded to apologize about 10 times, which in itself was annoying. After dinner, we leave the restaurant and wait in a crazy line to get our car. We wait and wait and no one takes our ticket. Finally, we ask what we need to do to get our car and are told by another customer to go to a window and pay for our ticket first and then they will bring up our car. We end up paying $20 for parking, $150 for dinner, and are still hungry when we leave. This is NOT a fine dining experience I look forward to on a saturday night. Read More

I visited Market with a group of girlfriends for a fun Saturday night out and we had just that. We shared a number of the appetizers which were all tasty and fun - the goat cheese one is unbelievable and I don't like goat cheese that much. Drinks were strong and delicio...us and I highly recommend the ruby red cocktail or the pomegranate margarita. Entrees were good (beef tenderloin was cooked perfectly) but I might have preferred to just have another round of appetizers and hold out for desserts. The chocolate cake dish was gooey and wonderful though friends also loved the cheesecake and lemon meringue. The staff was attentive and helpful. All in all a great dinner and a lot of fun.

I invited 8 friends to celebrate an anniversary and made reservations at Market thinking that any Jean-George restaurants would have to be incredible. We were seated against a wall as far away from the servers as possible. We must have had 10 people serving our table,... no one could be bothered to refill any of our glasses. We ordered on the recommendation of the server one of the appetizer pizzas which never arrived (no apologies). Each time on of the "servers" would come to the table they would just stand there - if we asked for something it was like we were speaking swahili. My organic chicken was desert dry and inedible. The well done tenderloin was raw but it took so long to show up we were afraid to send it back. The manager came over and we told her that we would like some drink refills at which point she asked my friend what drinks he wanted like it was a McDonald's drive through. The hamburgers came without any ketchup and were finished before the requested ketchup ever showed up. The only highlight of our meal was a cake we brought in from Matty Cakes! We ordered coffee that never showed up and then we couldn't get anyone to run our credit cards so we could get out of there. As we were leaving the waiter was bringing up the iced tea we ordered 1/2 an hour ago. Then as we left we were told that since we went over the two hour limit we owed $6 for parking. UNREAL - it was the WORST and wasn't cheap either. Love to know who came up with the wonderful paper placemat concept - we just couldn't stop laughing it was so bad it was comical. There were three good things about the meal - the company, the cake we brought and the decor. Don't waste a night out at this place the economy is in the toilet, your dinner and service shouldn't!
