One of the best French bistros I know outside of France. From the "salade lyonnaise" to the burger and fries, everything was well prepared and nicely plated. As always, the service was friendly, expert, and efficient.

About the restaurant
The Story of Josephine’s
The story of Josephine’s begins during our executive chef Daniel LeBoon’s childhood. At eight years old, working for his father’s catering company, Daniel discovered a passion for food. This love — and undeniable talent — saw him intern at Philadelphia’s prestigious Le Bec-Fin. He went on to work in Paris at the venerable Hotel Vernet working under the renowned chef’s Alain Solvere and Alain Ducasse. In 2004, Daniel purchased Josephine’s in Marietta and developed an extremely loyal following based on the combination of great food, great atmosphere and great hospitality. Although Josephine’s closed in 2011, the name and the experiences are fondly remembered by countless people.

Excellent service. Wonderful music. A lovely decor. The food was excellent. We ordered the salmon, crab cake, and scallops. All were cooked to perfection. The scallops came with a broccoli puree that was to die for. We'll be back.

What a great find! Had a wonderful business lunch on their back covered patio in this quaint off the beaten track gem. We all shared the famous fish and chips which was spot on. Two of us ordered the innovative summer salad, me with salmon and mine with their burger patty. Last gust had the chx caesar salad. Great lunch, great spot. Look forward to returning
