Reviews for Mary Mac's Tea Room in Atlanta, GA
Phenomenal food, unbelievably great service, and prices that just can?t be beat! This place rates as one of the top 10... restaurants I?ve ever been to in my life. Its very unassuming, and the entrance gives you no idea of just how large of anoperation it is. We were a group of six and waited 20 minutes to get a table. That was just low enough to have lots ofdiscussion about what was on the menu and what we were going to order. Just about everything was top shelf, first quality, freshand delicious. And just when I thought things couldn?t get any better the person serving us was out of this world. Friendly andprofessional, with lots of suggestions that really hit the target. Catfish, fried chicken, shrimp and grits were all reallywonderful and amazing. The meat loaf, & turkey and dressing meals were good but nothing special. All in all it was an incredibleexperience and a real feast. I have not stopped talking about it since I?ve gotten back from my vacation in Atlanta. In myopinion its a must do, don?t miss destination anytime within 50 miles of Miss Mary Macs. Read more
Tried and true Southern comfort food that has been a staple in Atlanta for decades. Famous for fried chicken, fresh vegetables, ... pork chops, mac n cheese, cornbread - the list goes on. Our party of 5 really enjoyed a variety of options and we left full andextremely satisfied. Prices are reasonable and the service is great. It had been a few years since I'd been here but I wasreminded as to why I should come more often. Read more
It's been 10 years since I visited Mary Mac's Tea Room, but nothing has changed, and thanks be to God for that. The fried... chicken is some of the best, if not the best, I've ever had. It's never greasy and has a perfect crust. The sides are alldelightful. The hardest thing to do is pick what to have and not walk out completely stuffed. Today we had Bowtie and Jackiewaiting on us and their service was genuinely hospitable and efficient. I just adore Mary Mac's and hope to return. Read more
On our visit I wanted to celebrate my hubby's birthday with some good southern comfort food. Well Mary Mac's Tea Room did not... disappoint. The food and service was truly amazing!! Plus he got a dessert on the house. He had the chicken & dumplings withcollard greens and Mac & cheese. I had the chicken with the white gravy , potato salad and Mac & cheese. All deliciouschoices. The kid menu was great and our little one had the chicken leg with two sides. He didn't care much for the sides but thechicken he loved. The sides were delicious he's just picky sometimes. We'll be back for sure! Read more
Mary Mac?s Tea Room was good, not great. I chose the Shrimp and Grits. I chose poorly. I should of had the Fried Chicken. I... tried one of the wings and it was juicy and delicious. Our server was delightful. There as plenty of parking in back of therestaurant. Cinnamon rolls were to die for, but be careful not to fill up on them. The banana pudding was much better than thepeach cobbler. The cobbler had a weird flavor ( maybe nutmeg), that I was not fan. All in all, it was worth it to visit, but notfavorite. Read more
After a dreadful experience at Old Lady Gang I was terrified to come here. But man was I impressed. This is true southern style... food. The ambiance, service, food, and welcoming atmosphere was top notch. Our waiter, Allston was AMAZING. Though, by closinghe kind of disappeared but that I understood, it's the end of the night. The fried catfish was amazing. The fried chicken wingswere good but one of my wings was not a whole wing and actually looked deformed. I did not realize it until the kitchen wasclosed, I did not say anything. The sides are in small bowls but the portion sizes are somewhat bigger. The fries were verygood. Collard greens had some seasoning but very little. Mac and cheese was delicious. The true winner was the bread servicewith cinnamon rolls. I will be back! Thank you for a great evening. Read more
Absolutely met our expectations. We had a 6 hour layover in Atlanta on the way to panama. Super easy train ride and a 10 minute... walk (takes you by the famous Fox Theatre). Food and service were amazing. Portions are generous. I'm not one to judge arestaurant by the celebrities that have visited but their wall of photos is jaw dropping. Highly recommended place. Can't waitto try again. Read more
If you are in Atlanta, try this restaurant. The service is very good, the server was nice and polite, the food quality was... great, and it was delicious ( but don't expect a very healthy type food) the food portions were decent. Considering the foodand portion, their price were reasonable. Inside of the restaurant is another positive part of this restaurant. It's kind ofhistoric, with plenty of photos and old style rooms and decorative features. The restaurant is big and has several rooms, witha story behind it. Parking space, there is a parking area nearby, not expensive, and you can park in an adjacent street forfree, around 100 yards or so, walking away from the restaurant main entrance . Read more
