About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Fancy
  • Romantic
Marcel is a first-rate steakhouse and bar in Atlanta’s Westside Provisions District. Named after Marcel Cerdan, the iconic French fighter and romantic, Marcel transports guests to the days when people appreciated every moment, when dull care was forgotten, when love lingered over the best meals – including, pound-for-pound, the best steaks money can buy. Indulge in our award winning wine list, recognized by Wine Enthusiast Magazine as one of America's 100 Best Wine Restaurants.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Ford Fry’s swanky Westside spot is where you go for the ultimate steak dinner and one of the city’s best wine lists. With burgundy leather seating and stunning antique mirrors, the dimly lit space is the perfect setting for digging into high-end steaks like a 30-ounce porterhouse for two topped with fancy sauces like lobster and brandy au poivre. Pro tip: get the baked Alaska, flamed tableside.

    First time dining at Marcel, and it was yummy! My husband and I heard great things about Marcels and they meet our expectations for sure! We go out a lot and we love a great place for some steak and the steak that we had was phenomenal, very tasty! Didn’t even need a sauce! *chefs kiss! Will definitely be coming back!

    What an absolutely wonderful dining experience! I made reservations at Marcel's to celebrate a dear friend's birthday, and the evening was nothing short of exceptional. I noted the occasion through the OpenTable app, and the restaurant went above and beyond to make it special. One of the most charming touches was a personalized menu stamped with “Happy Birthday”—a thoughtful detail that truly stood out. The wine list was outstanding, offering a broad range of selections at various price points. My guest, a French citizen and Pilot has traveled to over 72 countries, remarked that he had never encountered a wine selection as extensive and impressive as Marcel’s. We chose a Côtes du Rhône, which was incredibly smooth and full of flavor. I especially appreciated seeing it decanted at the table—such a lovely touch. For dinner, I ordered the Filet Mignon with mashed potatoes, while my friend chose the Escargot and French Onion Soup. Every bite was a delight. The filet was exquisitely tender and bursting with flavor—possibly the best I’ve ever had. The escargot was expertly prepared, and the soup rich and satisfying. We ended the meal with a classic Crème Brûlée, which arrived adorned with a chocolate “Happy Birthday” sign and a candle—a sweet and elegant finale. The service throughout the evening was impeccable. The staff were warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.

    I've been wanting to check out this restaurant for awhile and even with the very good reviews, it exceeded my expectations. The quality of the steaks were exceptional, outstanding decor, great cocktails and perfect service. Absolutely worth the pricing in my opinion and a new fave that I will visit repeatedly.

    Marcel was great. Knowledgeable servers and all the food tasted amazing. We had the oysters Marcel, bone marrow, frites, cacio e pepe, bone in NY strip, and roasted mushrooms. All 10/10.
