About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Good for business meals
A restaurant that triumphs in taste over trend, Hal's is not the typical highbrow restaurant so often equated with food of this quality. It is a place of white table cloths, flowers, warm brick, & candlelight.

    We had a great date night! The food was really good and the guy playing piano and saxophone was a nice touch. Since it was our first time visiting, our waiter recommended great options. We shared the chargrilled oysters which were okay. I got the Chilean sea bass and my husband got the chicken; we enjoyed both entrees! Don’t fill up on dinner because the dessert is definitely worth it! Tiramisu was chef’s kiss and my husband enjoyed the chocolate cake with ice cream. The only 2 criticisms were that the tables for 2 people were pretty tight and the noise level was pretty loud. We kept finding ourselves having to talk very loudly just to hear each over the noice level. Overall, I’d still go back just to try some more of their menu options. Cheers Hal’s!

    The main food and environment were great. We had the wedge salad, oyster special (baked with Parmesan), snapper , lobster Mac & cheese and chocolate cake dessert. The salad, snapper with artichokes, lobster Mac & cheese were great and I highly recommend. The oyster special lacked nuance and basically was a baked oyster with a too thick slab of Parmesan. The dessert was fair as well. Overall I give this restaurant high marks because of ambience, main dishes and parking. We did feel rushed to put in orders. It was a busy night.

    Hal's is my favorite restaurant in Atlanta, but on this particular visit I was a bit disappointed. The food was excellent, as always, but the service didn't quite meet the restaurant's usual high standards. I want to emphasize that this is a sliding scale: I tend to hold Hal's to a higher standard. On this visit I had to ask for a (non-alcoholic) drink refill a couple of times, and for bread. Not something I'd notice in a typical restaurant, but unusual for Hal's. What actually bothered me was something I didn't notice until the next day. I almost never finish a full meal at Hal's, and I always look forward to leftovers the next day. I asked our waiter to box my leftovers: steak, mashed potatoes (the best in town, in my opinion) and bread. When I actually opened the leftovers the following day, I discovered the waiter had only saved the steak. I've never had to specify before that "Can I please get a box for all this,? meant everything on the plate. And the box leaked. It's not an enormous thing, obviously, but I had only had a few bites of my serving of mashed potatoes and I was very much looking forward to having them the next day.

    Excellent steak, lobster & cocktails as always, service is top notch. It’s very loud hard to have a conversation at the table.

    5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary at Hal’s, and it was unforgettable—from the rainbow we saw on the way there to the final bite of cheesecake. ✨🌈 My love affair with Hal’s Steakhouse has officially been reignited. There’s just something magical about the place—if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! The nostalgia hits in all the right ways, and the experience was seamless from start to finish. Jeff C. was our incredible server (shoutout to Jake, his attentive assistant), and they made us feel truly taken care of. The drinks were on point 🍸🥃, and the valet service made arrival a breeze. We dove into the Surf n Turf—perfectly seasoned steak 🥩 and the Lobster Le Beaux 🦞 were absolute standouts. The chargrilled oysters were smoky and rich, the chopped salad crisp and fresh, and the sides (mashed potatoes, sautéed mushrooms 🍄‍🟫) were just as memorable. We finished with a slice of cheesecake that hit all the right notes—rich, creamy, and the perfect ending to a wonderful night. Even the restrooms were spotless—Hal’s thinks of everything. Highly recommend for a special occasion or anytime you’re craving a flawless meal in a timeless setting. ❤️
