Fantastic French Cuisine & Ambiance – I am a Francophone, not a true Frenchie. That is only to say that my adoration of Joel is purely from an American standpoint. I am amused by some reviews - you have to know why you are coming here. Come here to enjoy in the ambiance, revel in the experience which is far from hurried, but how could you want anything less from a true French gem? I have experienced Joel with a friend of his so we had the full tasting menu and also from a regular patron on a special occasion. Loved both even... read more
The Worst Dining Experience for a Restaurant of this Price Range – During the holiday season, I brought an out of town friend to Joel?s for dinner. I am sad to say how embarrassing the entire experience was for me. We arrived for an early dinner at 6:00 pm and were informed the Wine Steward was late coming to work, so we would be required to wait to order our wine until he arrived. We waited over 50 minutes for him to arrive to work. We were informed that nobody else, including the management, could serve the wine. Once our ... read more
I'm confused.... you sound sophisticated, but.... – I look forward to my first dining experience at Joel's this weekend. I am confused by the negative remarks. Is it because you are uneducated speakers that your words have no tact? Or is it that you wanted to sound more classy than what you are. I find it baffling to read comments from individuals who lack decorum. I've heard nothing but greatness about this restaurant, and look forward to the entire dining experience.
Chef Joel Antunes-James Beard Award Winning Chef! One Of The Finest French Brasserie's In U.S. – With the demise of Brasserie La Coze at Lenox Square, and the closing of Seeger's, Joel is firmly at the head of fine dining royalty in Atlanta. Located in a beautiful condo, at the intersection of West Paces/Northside Dr., it has a presence all it's own. Chef Joel's menu was outstanding. Starting with a divine Fois Gras w/pear chutney, and Peeky Toe Crab Cakes w/lemon aioli, set the buds to throbbing! My entree was Roasted Duck ... read more

The atmosphere was definitly a treat for the senses. The food was average and service was poor. When my entree arrived, it was dropped in front of me without a word!

BEST RESTAURANT IN ATLANTA!! – I just love this place!! The restaurant itself is cool, and the food is great!! I love that the portions are not disgustingly huge so you don't feel sick later. The food is great and very beautifully presented. The wine selection is great and the sommelier is very helpful and knowledgeable. Great service, amazing food!! Great ambience!!!
The restaurant itself is a lovely place and so is the food, wine list, etc... The one thing that sticks out like a sore thumb is the poor service. We waited for 30 minutes and when we asked the hostess why were not being seated with many empty tables she replied that "I forgot". Then the first waitstaff that we encountered was 10 minutes after we had been sat. When the waiter finally arrived, he recited the specials so fast that we had no idea what they were except that it was accompanied by green beans. We then never saw th... read more
