Business lunch with out of town suppliers. They were very impressed with the menu options and all enjoyed their meals. The staff was attentive. The only negative was the noise level that made it difficult to carry on a conversation.

A great experience - every time. Alex took care of us this time for lunch. The weekday trio did not disappoint. Nor did the other two dishes. The food is always a 10/10. Mixed drinks taste fantastic at Seed, I keep reminding people that ‘fresh juices’ make the difference.

Capers on Main serves contemporary American fare with a Southern influence in an open kitchen restaurant. Start the meal off with a serving of hickory-smoked salmon in a dill mayo sauce, Southern style green tomatoes, or the best calamari in the city. Capers offers a diverse menu including mouth watering pastas, Hawaiian ribeye, apricot glazed New Zealand lamb, Mississippi catfish, Herb crusted grouper, Georgia mountain trout, and daily specials.

About the restaurant

Nestled against the Marietta Square, Hamp & Harry’s is serving up artfully inspired cocktails, a beer selection with vintage and local options, plus chef-crafted plates that go well beyond “bar food.” It’s an intimate cocktail den and a lively, comfortable, neighborhood food and drink spot, where talented skill and friendly service work in harmony. Step up, and grab ice-cold cocktails to-go from the walk-up bar window. Step inside, and experience the gold standard of Marietta hospitality.

Always excellent. Seated quickly by the super friendly GM. Great drink selections as well as well stocked wine cellar. Food was fantastic. I would like to see the mussels have a choice of red or green sauce.

Our party of four each enjoyed a wonderful meal at Crispina this past Tuesday evening. Between us, we had two orders of the Pappardelle Pompei, and one order each of the Gnocci Amalfi (superb), and the Chicken Piccata - they were all great! Also, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was very nice, with good lighting and nice background music. All in all, a great evening and worth every penny!
