About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Good for special occasions
Charming

Canoe is located in Atlanta's historic Vinings area on the Chattahoochee River where Buckhead meets Vinings.
Canoe's beautiful historic riverside setting makes it the perfect spot for weddings, receptions and private celebrations.
Its original cuisine and distinctive design have already been featured in Bon Appetit, Food And Wine, Gourmet, The Wine Spectator and The New York Times. Canoe, recipient of the prestigious Mobil 4 Star Award, was also selected as one of the "Best New Restaurants" in the country by the James Beard Foundation.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Matthew Basford

From the OpenTable editors: At this iconic restaurant located on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, the setting is as spectacular as the elegant farm-to-table fare. Grab a seat in the dining room with wooden ceilings resembling canoes and an open kitchen to watch executive chef Matthew Basford whip up elegant American dishes like slow-braised rabbit with mushroom stroganoff. Or linger with a glass of wine from the award-winning list on the outdoor patio for prime river and garden views.

Amazing as always. The food was fabulous and the service outstanding. Beet salad and Kangaroo loin appetizers were standouts. The service is attentive as well as cordial and the view from the restaurant makes you want to stay a very long time.

Food was amazing, as always—started with kangaroo loin appetizer and she-crab soup (a special). Main course special of trout over risotto was exceptional. Our server, Gavin, was knowledgeable about both food and wines, and helped with selections. His service was exceptional!

We were rather unhappy with our recent visit to Canoe. We have had several pleasant visits in the past but this time, our experience was not as enjoyable. The food was great but the service did meet our usual expectations. The restaurant seemed very understaffed that evening and we had trouble grabbing the attention of our waiter due to this issue. The flies around our patio table were also very unpleasant and the staff did not seem to offer any solution. The valet parking staff were not at all friendly either. I don’t think we will be dining here again until some improvements are made.

Canoe has become my family's Top 3 fine dining restaurants in greater Atlanta. Because both the food and the service are exceptionally consistent, Canoe is also our go-to choice when we have family or friends visiting. With so many restaurants opening and closing in the city, it's no wonder why Canoe's been around since 1995.
