"Great place to eat for any occasion! We were seated as soon as we arrived (it was Father's Day!) and our waiter was attentive and friendly and gave us excellent service. We ate very "simply" today, grilled cheese and Maytag chips for my husband and an omelet and the Greek "coins" for me. Both tasted great! We've never had a bad meal here and today was no exception."

"The food at the Buckhead Diner is always excellent. It is consistent from one visit to the next, a testament to the kitchen staff. On this visit, our service was average at best. Our server, while very, very nice, spent too much time chatting with other guests and did not check in with us until we were almost done eating. We've had him before and he was very good, but on this visit the service was definitely lacking. It affects your meal negatively, though not enough to not return; it's definitely one of our go-to restaurants. My drink (the 18th hole Arnold Palmer) was terrible. I'm not sure it had much alcohol in it because I never tasted any, and the drink itself tasted like water and mint (which would be fine if I didn't pay $9 for it)."

"We were very disappointed with the food. We had heard amazing things about Buckhead Diner but the beef tenderloin looked like a crockpot roast and it was too tough to chew. The fish was overcooked and burned and a few other dishes were not tasty. Unfortunately we will not return."

"I am a nut for service and Megan was outstanding.
We got the round table I requested. I did not realize my reservation was really priority seating. My confirmation used the term reservation and priority interchangeabley and the terms are not the same.

"Shared a wedge salad, wife had flat iron steak special, it was outstanding. I had shrimp and grits that were one of the best ever. Shared brownie sundae for dessert, could have eaten several of them. Only issue is with drinks at any Buckhead Life restaurant. They are without a doubt the weakest of any bar or restaurant in any city I have ever seen. For $9.50 you should get some alcohol. When you only have one and pay in the market range for a drink at a fine restaurant, it should be representative, but they are far from it. They work hard on their food, but the drinks are sorely lacking in value and taste. Have learned my lesson and will go with wine or beer in the future."

"Diner...this is not! It was very upscale and pricier than a regular diner. The place was packed on a Thursday evening! There is $2 valet parking and free parking across the street or on the side of building. We were eventually seated at a booth but it was terribly humid n hot, as if we were sitting outside. They moved us to another booth that was great. The waiter was ok, but slightly forgetful and not as attentive. However, the hostess and manager were amazing!!! You can tell that this restaurant cherishes each and every customer. Customer service seems to be key to Even when we stopped other waitstaff to ask for something, they were polite and on top of things."

"The wait staff was excellent and every member of the staff we spoke to was outstanding. The food was excellent. I got the hanger steak, and my wife got the open faced salmon sandwich. The grits that came with mine were the best I have ever had. Both excellent choices. The only thing that rubbed me the wrong way was the priority seating wait. So they don't take actual reservations but we still got sat after another couple that came in after we did. We made our "priority reservation" for 7:30 and these guys come strolling in at 7:50. Who knew that all you had to do was complain to get what you want... I understand the restaurants urge to keep their customers happy, but it didn't sit we'll with me."

"Our friend who was retiring chose Buckhead Diner for our little going-away dinner for her (8 people), and it was the perfect spot. The hosts and servers had our table all ready and were so attentive and gracious during the evening . The food was outstanding and promptly served. Delicious calamari appetizer and crab cakes entree were favorites, and the desserts are heavenly. My first visit - will definitely go back!"

"Our waiter was Brian, he is the best waiter I have ever had at any restaurant in any state. And my family goes out a lot. He was hilarious, quick witted, kept us laughing, and very attentive. Not only did we enjoy our food but Brian made our experience that much better. If it wasn't for him it would just be another restaurant. The food was great but the experience was topped with a cherry because of him. I recommend the restaurant and Brian."

"WE WERE SEATED PROMPTLY AND THE ENTIRE STAFF WE CAME IN CONTACT WITH WERE MOST PLEASANT AND HELPFUL. ADDED TO THE DINING PLEASURE, OUR DINNER WAS SERVED PROMPTLY AND OUR ENTIRE GROUP OF 8 FOUND THE FOOD BOTH SERVED HOT AND EXACTLY AS THEY HAD ORDERED. WE WERE VERY PLEASED TO BE SEATED AT A ROUND TABLE OF A SIZE THAT OFFERED AMPLE ROOM AND YET WAS SUCHE THAT WE COULD CONVERSE ACROSS THE TABLE! NO QUESTION, THE BUCKHEAD DINER SHOULD BE ON EVERYONE'S LIST AS A "GO TO" PLACE."

"Another wonderful trip to the Buckhead Diner! This place never disappoints. We aren't the most adventuresome when it comes to trying new things. We know what we like best at Buckhead Diner and usually get the same thing. Both food and service are always perfect. We will keep going back."

"Whenever we're in the mood for home style comfort, we head to Buckhead Diner. The veal meatloaf is delicious! And the corn muffins, mmmmm good!
We were seated immediately, and, throughout the dining experence, our server was very attentive."

"We have been going here at least twice a year for 20+ years and it never disappoints. A great food menu, drink menu and wait staff. Our only complaint this time is that our blue cheese chips were barely warm..but since this is first time in 20 years that our chips were not perfect we will be back. They have old fashion diner food and drinks as well as an upscale wine list, half bottles of champagne and an upscale menu. Seriously, if you have never been, you need to go, you won't be disappointed. Lunch, Brunch or Dinner, they are all good, trust me, I have been to all of them!! Bon Appetit Y'all!"

"The food was average but above average prices. The shakes were like Frosties from Wendy's and not what I expected. Plus it was really loud in there and hard to enjoy the ambience. Service was good."

"Reviews for Buckhead Diner are across the map so I wasn't sure what to expect. It is basically an expensive diner with upscale atmosphere. The food was good, the service was excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed brunch. I read one review that blasted the service and servers--to me the service was the best part. Everyone we dealt with was great."

"The priority seating was great. We only had to wait about three minutes before we were seated. There were some people ahead of us, but we were seated promptly. The food was good, as usual, and the service was excellent. We were especially impressed with Emma, the hostess. She was very efficient, sweet, and friendly."

"Very quiet on a Sunday afternoon due to the inclement weather. Food was excellent (especially the ceviche and crab cake appetizer/small plates) but service was spotty. Luckily, the manager made things right when informed of the problem."

"From the outside you would never expect what you find on the inside. This is a must visit dining experience if you're in Atlanta. Recommended to me by a local. We almost passed on it as it looks like an old Johnny Rockets on the outside. Inside - looks like a fine dining restaurant and the food backed that up. Outstanding!! Our best meal of the week in Atlanta"
