Ruth's Chris Steak House - Buckhead Atlanta
📍 Address: 3285 Peachtree Rd NE, Buckhead
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5)
While attempting to enjoy a meal at the bar last week. I was shocked that a patron was able to sit her dog in the bar chair ar the bar where patrons were eating (he was not in a bag or on the floor...on a SEAT at the BAR) A couple sitting close to the party of people were so disgusted, they made a comment and moved to the other end of the bar. Others came behind them and also saw the dog and moved. When the bartender was questioned about it, he proceeded to speak to the party when one of the ladys decided to shout obscenities at us very loud and rude. She went on for about 15 mins. The manager did nothing to accomodate us nor did he offer an apology. All he stated was if he heard anyone hollering obscenities they would be removed. Well she continued on, and he did nothing. The bartenders did a great job trying to diffuse the situation and they had great customer service, however, the manager on duty did not act as if he wanted to deal with the situation and made the visit very unpleasant for all of the bar patrons. I think he may have been familiar, even friends with the group of women. I found this experience to be highly disappointing and was disgusted that someone had a dog sitting where I was dining. Totally blew my appetite and experience As much as I love this restaurant and the this location is within walking distance to my home, I will not be visiting this location again. I don't know if it is the hotel clientele that brings in this type of customer (what the last yelp.review referres to) or lack of great management. I had been to the other location that is inside of the same hotel and it is very classy and always a great experience. I think it all depends on the management staff and enforcing the rules. They both have signs of "proper attire only" but it obviously was not enforced by this location either, based on what I witnessed during my experience.

If you come here for nothing more than the escargot and the mussels and a drink (or two) you will have found the best of French cuisine that Buckhead has to offer. Disagree with most negative reviews on this site about service. Have been eating here since this restaurant opened. Wait staff is always pleasant, efficient and hospitable. We did recently get a "new" waiter but the manager took care of us with his shortfalls. Best entrée on the menu...... Boeuf Bourguignon @ $21.95. Give the steak knife back to the waiter. You can cut these Kobe beef cubes with your fork! Simply devine! (Get extra bread for the broth that the mussels are served in!)
Chicken Kabob Restaurant
📍 Address: 756 Washington St, Stoughton
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.5)
This place is truly a hidden gem, very surprise that it's not busier. A friend who lives nearby raves about this place. Was in the area today and we both went here for lunch, delicious! I had the Doner sandwich while he had the chicken kabob plate. Sandwich was good, excellent bread along with yogurt sauce that had just enough flavor. Tried my friends plate as well, the chicken was cooked perfectly and everything on his plate from the grilled vegetables to the rice were seasoned and done well. We had a very pleasant experience here, restaurant was clean, owner works here and seems like a nice hard working guy. Will definitely come back and going to tell friends and family about it.

Bertucci's Italian Restaurant
📍 Address: 475 Winter St, Waltham

The wait here was nuts. You can see open tables but still continue to wait. We even had reservations. The food is fine but if you value your time, especially on Saturday, skip it. The ambiance by the pizza kitchen where they seated us also leaves MUCH to be desired. Felt like I was in a pizzeria and not a restaurant that serves it as am option.

Not quite sure what all the buzz is about with this place on yelp. The atmosphere looks like somebody's kitchen and really crowded, really nothing nice about it. The food? Very mediocre, I would lean towards the side of disappointing. Had their crab cake sandwich, not worth it.
