Alma Cocina Buckhead

Attended brunch, and was pleasantly surprised by and thoroughly enjoyed all elements of the dining experience. Small plates and especially salads were actually quite large and filling! Cocktails were also on another level, especially the naranjarita. Definitely try the different guacamole varieties and the ash-cured steelhead. Absolutely recommend!

I enjoy Alma Cocina. It’s in a strange location to access unless your familiar with the area though. Otherwise I recommend the food and adult beverages they serve. Pretty tasty.

Very good food. Unexpected combinations.

Highly recommend this restaurant! Outstanding food choices.

This was our first time at this restaurant. My husband would always say that he wanted to go in. We had DELICIOUS appetizers and entrees. The service and atmosphere was great, too! Valet parking can be paid via a link they send you which is hood because we never have cash for a tip.

Our waiter Carlton was absolutely awesome!

Love the new Alma! Superb and attentive service delivered delicious food in a comfortable setting. Thank you!!!

Excellent experience. I highly recommend checking out the restaurant.

Beautiful new location, ambiance is amazing. The food is delicious; we took all our server recommendations and the meal was perfect, start to finish. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.

Our server was Andrew and fantastic

The service beginning with the host stand was impeccable. All were polite and there to serve. There is a sense these folks take their job seriously and are there to exceed your expectations. The menu is interesting but not so interesting you won't know what to order. The portions are generous so order less than you think. Next time I will order the salsa trio, skip the guac as it was good but not amazing, order the octopus, and then will order the 3 street tacos as a shared plate with my S.O. We each ordered an entree and left feeling wasteful and uncomfortable though they offered a to go box. Dont get me wrong it was all great but just too much!

The Ceviche and the chef version of eggs Benedict was phenomenal and the Sunrise cocktail and Bloody Mary super good - First time for brunch and was amazing-

Great food and cocktails. Our server, Susana was very friendly and knowledgeable. We’re looking forward to our next visit.

The service was excellent as was the food! Definitely want to return

Second visit to Alma Cocina Buckhead and it was as excellent as the first time!

Our server Rell was AMAZING. Very knowledgeable and personable. Made our experience go off without a hitch. The hostess Tiffany was so sweet and accommodating. The manager David came by and he was hilarious and seems to thoroughly enjoy his job. The ceviche, tamarind wings, crab tostada & the esquites were some of my favorite menu items. Chef Clevenger is a genius when it comes to creating an experience through food.

Amazing menu and exceptional service!

The food was well-prepared and imaginatively served. The service was excellent. I DID NOT like the charitable solicitation at the time the check was presented. Cheap shot! Will not return.

Good food and nice atmosphere!

The food here is outstanding! I will order the chihuahua cheese and empanadas every time I visit.

The food was absolutely delicious and the service impeccable.

Disappointing after opening with some buzz! They had been open 3 weeks so time enough to iron out basics. Confusion at the front upon checkin. Food was just OK. Service was actually fine but the waitress spent several minutes at the end selling up on the idea of contributing to a fav Fifth Group charity after we had said no.

Alma Cocina Buckhead experience was excellent. The restaurant interior is beautiful. The food was excpetional! Niki our server was very diligent in making sure we were pleased.

A very interesting place, very loud. The service was excellent and our server was very helpful with explanations and suggestions. Drinks were great. The food was unique and very tasty. Fried cheese was different but somewhat overwhelming. Carnitas tacos were some of the best we've ever had. Only been open a couple weeks but they obviously train the staff well. Nice place. We'll be back.

We enjoyed our dinner at Alma Cocina. The restaurant is beautiful and service outstanding. Some of the dishes we had need was quite bland and need improvement. However, the octopus appetizer and churros were divine. We will go back.

Food and service were fantastic. By far the best upscale Mexican restaurant in Atlanta.

Beautiful clean sleek interior
Very welcoming staff
Menu varied and inventive
Good bar scene
Overall a winner . Glad in my hood

Parking is a bit chaotic for the area, in general (better signage needed). Warm greeting upon entering. Even though our reservation asked for a quite area, the hostess did not seem to understand that. She sat us next to a table for 8 or so people. When I asked, her response was they wouldn't be here for awhile, but didn't offer another table which there were plenty to choose from. We went because it was their first Sunday for brunch. The menu is very limited for actual brunch, so it is not a place we would go to often, since that is usually why we go out. The presentations were appealing, although the table for 2 was a bit small for the appetizers we ordered, had to keep shifting things around. The server was pleasant, engaging, and knowledgeable. The restaurant was clean and the decor average.

Highly recommend this place. Loved the traditional guacamole served with perfect whole tortillas. Empanadas had incredible flavor. Chicken al carbon was spectacular! Beautiful decor! Nice staff- particularly the barstaff! Look forward to trying the rest of the menu.

Food and service were both great. Excited to have them in the neighborhood.

So glad to have Alma Cocina in Buckhead! Food was excellent. Our server, Andrew, was amazing! That spicy Margarita.......... Yum! I just need to figure out a better way to park. $18 for self park is steep for a lunch. I meant to ask if you validate parking, but I forgot and no one offered. That would be a great incentive for us to come more often.

We had a wonderful time here! Our server gave us a wonderful run down of the menu when we arrived since it was all of our first times. We got the guacamole trio, which was delicious, as well as the Chihuahua cheese small plate. Highly recommend both of these! The taco plates were large and filling too. Very impressed with the first experience and excited to go back again soon!

Great ambiance, tasty food and affordable wine list.Good experience.

Attentive wait staff. Ricki at the bar is spectacular!! Dennis, the manager, is engaged with customers and is always at the ready to answer questions and assist staff. Dynamic vibe at the bar. Food is outstanding- try the three style guacamole and the ceviche appetizers!!

My son’s birthday celebration . Everyone was courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. We really enjoyed the experience.

Really creative and different. Great food!! Will definitely be back.
