    My favorite restaurant for western food. Very delicious and dishes come with really big portions. One adult likes me rarely could finish one because of many good side dishes. The complimentary spinach cakes are so yummy. Steak and seafood combos are must try. They also have a lot of nice cakes, I will try next time. This restaurant opens late so very convenient if you work in shift 3 or 4 looking for good food. Highly recommended

    We love classic diners and the Marietta Diner is a great example of a classic diner. The food is great, many choices and the portions are generous! Our server Abel was wonderful, he took great care of us. He answered our questions, made some wonderful suggestions and made sure we enjoyed our meals. We brought home half of our dinner and cake to enjoy that night. We love the Marietta Diner!

    I met my cousins here as a surprise for one of their birthdays. We had a great waiter and the food and dessert was amazing. Definitely going back when I am in town.

    Upon a recommendation from a dear friend, a Coworker & I decided to have Breakfast at the Marietta Diner. We both had Omelets, mine a Pesto & his a Ham & Cheese. I had Home Fries, he had Hash Browns.... Everything was delicious & prepared perfectly. Our amazing server, was Mr. K Piper. He was very polite and professional. Overall, a great dining experience!

    Absolutely, everything was fantastic! The Greek Lemon Chicken soup tastes like your grandmother made it to save you from the plague. Everything was fresh and just phenomenal. Great service, great atmosphere, the wait wasn't long, make sure you save room for cake!

    Famous Greek owned diner. Has been featured on several food shows including Diners, drive-ins and dives. The menu is huge, a book! Every possible option and everything we had was delicious. Greek lemon chicken soup was the bomb. A glass case of all kinds of dessert stretched around the corner. Prices were good too. Our server was super nice and very professional. It's an experience.

    Excellent place to have any meal. They have you covered with many different types of food - Greek, American classics, breakfast, coffee etc. a great place for a meeting or family gathering. Full wait staff ready to treat you with kindness and service. The management of this place is top notch. Worth the drive (though it is located right off of I75 and lower Roswell rd), and prices are right. Upful vibes. Ridim - Bless up King 🎚️❤️‍🔥👑

    Customer Service: Host was quick to sit us, waitress failed introduce herself but was prompt at getting our drinks and putting in our order. Food comes out pretty quickly especially taking into consideration how busy it was. Food: Sweet tea deliciously sweet. We were given complimentary bread and spinach pie, that I found surprisingly tasty. Cream of potato was amazing. Chicken Alfredo fettuccine was perfectly creamy & delicious. Chicken wing order got messed up…asked for crispy wings tossed in mild sauce with lemon sprinkles. The solution to problem was to bring me a cup of sauce. I didn’t like the wings. The food menu has an overwhelmingly large selection. This is great place to come if you need variety. Restaurant was very full but still had plenty of parking. Handicap Accessibility: Yes I’d recommend this place but I wouldn’t consider it my favorite.

    I’m giving a 5 star review to the Marietta Diner! The customer service was amazing. The food I had was amazing. I recommend trying the fried mac and cheese balls for an appetizer. I had the French toast with fresh strawberries and bacon for my dinner. It tasted great! I’ll be back again soon.

    This food is so good and comes in huge portions! I got the grilled trout with an amazing stuffed mushroom. The desserts are varied and fantastic. You won't have to wait long as they have the service down to a science. Very cool atmosphere. Can't wait to go back.

    I love this place so whenever I'm in Georgia I have to eat here. It was packed and there was a long line of folks waiting to eat. Good to know is, if you are not fussy you can eat at the bar which is way quicker. We chose to do this and found two seats. Service was not as prompt and our barman/server had an attitude which presented itself in an ugly way at times. This led to sporadic service and my friend had to ask for cutlery when her food came. Also noted that the complimentary spinach pie did not come timely and others who came after us had received theirs and my friend had to ask for it and we still had a wait before we got it. Of course it tasted as fantastic as remembered so worth it. I also had it as a main meal and my friend had the turkey burger. I did not realize that my food came with rice and pita so was surprised when I got this huge plate as it only mentioned that it came with a salad. When I told the waiter it was not mine, again we got attitude and then he was snappy when he confirmed that it came with all the items on the plate. It would have been nice to see that written on the menu so that I could have told them I did not want it. The lady sitting next to us at the bar was mortified at the attitude as she worked in the service industry and he was rude to her several times. I ordered a strawberry shortcake to go and that was truly delicious and you get a huge slice so I ate it for days!! Be warned it is a lot of food and the place is busy and had an extensive menu. There were some very nice staff there despite our server, so it is not the usual service attitude of their staff, but it did leave a negative vibe despite the good food.Of course I would eat here again and hope that a certain staff member gets retrained regarding customer service and improved attitude!

    It was amazing, our sever was Evangelia, and she was super attentive and sweet, it was her first week there and she told us all about her home country(Greece) and about the food, culture and history of the Greek islands. She recommended dishes and cakes for us and came back multiple days times to check on us. I’m super glad I got to meet her and if I go back i will try to talk to her again! I hadn’t been with my family in years and it was a Sunday night, you do need to come before 5:30 or else you may have to wait. The food was amazing and of course the carrot cake and red velvet cake and the balaclava cheese cake were divine. Would 11/10 recommend, and Evangelia if you see this I hope you have a wonderful time while you’re in the US and it was wonderful to meet you!

    After we waited 45 to 50 minutes to be seated the server came to take our order within a couple minutes. I ordered the Jumbo Shrimp & my husband ordered the Chop Steak. Both were delicious!!! Especially the shrimp! It tasted like what I get from the Marietta Fish Market. Definitely worth the wait. It’s 8:40pm and the picture shows the lobby full of people still waiting to be seated.

    This place was great!!! Our first visit was fantastic. Friendly and enthusiastic service from Marina. Many menu options. Food was delivered fast. The pricing was a little high, but is well worth it in my opinion. There is so much food! Every table got bread and spanikopita, which was delightful. I ordered the original Monte Cristo sandwich which was huge and near perfect. Fries too. My wife got fried shrimp which were crispy golden brown and delicious. There was a good amount of people there and a loud buzz of good times throughout. We had no wait at 645pm on a Wednesday. We can't wait to try some breakfast! A great time.

    Outstanding food and service 24/7. I had the gyro with fries and a Greek salad. It was excellent. I sincerely like that the food managers come around to chat with you making sure everything is good with your meal. They all show how much they care to please their customers. This place is definitely Atlanta's best late night place to eat when everything else is closing. Highly recommend eating here. You have a great choice of just about any meal you can think of and it's all fairly priced.

    Wow, 1st time here visiting my nephew and this place was great. We ordered from the specials of the day, and the lamb chops and Greek salad were great. The portions could have been shared as it came on a large cutting board. The service was way above my expectations. The leadership here is spot on and makes your experience wonderful. There are so many selections of quality food, and they are open 24 hours a day.

    I was excited to come early morning bring my parents for breakfast. We won the Gift card. So this time was mom and dad. The receipt I just read today. Said they charged me 1.00 for a bagel. I was shocked they even charge me a dollar. My dad was already enjoying his breakfast. He ordered biscuits. The waiter even knew we didn’t get biscuits. She was offered toast or bagel. At no time I hear was a 1 more. It’s just a dollar I know. But we should not pay for a mistake. Like I told mom. Was not my money. Was from the gift card so whatever. The issue is customers should not pay for your mistakes. I only share this comment to share that read what you buy on your receipts. Don’t hate the Diner. This is to train the staff for this mistake. Thank you

    During our visit to Marietta, I wanted to eat in places that weren't chain fast food spots, in favor of places that are uniquely Marietta. The Marietta Diner stands out, cause of how beautifully lit it is at night, but step inside and you'll find a culinary experience. I couldn't stop raving about how great this place was. We didn't have to wait at all for a two-person table, and the menu was vast and wide, with all offerings from breakfast foods to lunch & dinner, as they are open 24 hours a day. The food was incredible and the service - very attentive. You've gotta experience it for yourself... you won't walk away still hungry or disappointed.

    I've never had a pot roast with tomato sauce! I took it home and made a gravy for it. My son enjoyed his chopped steak. The portions are good for the price. I've also never had rice pudding without raisins. Their pudding taste like milk and rice warmed up and it made me gag. Unfortunately I sent that back.

    This is such a lovely place. The food is so good and the waiters are all so nice. we recommend this place to anyone who hasn't come here before its a must go to!! We had the Lamb Chop and the Salmon and for dessert we had the Rice Pudding (warm). We loved everything. The soup wasn't that good but the Mushroom one was good. They have very big plates if your thinking of sharing this is the place also.

    I have been coming to this place since it was a pizza spot called Village Inn back in the nineties. They have always had very high quality food a huge menu and impeccable service. They have also been known for pretty decent prices. This last time we came we started off with an order of onion rings and they were really good. We also ordered a 1/2 rack of ribs with some fries which were OK but not obviously on par with a barbecue restaurant. We also ordered the country fried steak that came with a side plus a soup and a salad so there was a ton of food plus the country fried steak had 2 pieces of country fried steak and it was delicious with the gravy. The ceasar salad was delicious! We also ordered a plate of chicken fingers and fries which only had 4 chicken fingers and an order of fries for over $18. The prices have went up significantly and for some of the items the food does not warrant the price. We also got dessert for 3 people and that alone was more than $40. Granted the portions were pretty large but the prices have increased significantly. This is my favorite spot since I was a child and we will continue to return however the prices are getting a bit high.

    The food was just fine, but I will say the staff here seems to be very efficient! I was in a large party and there was no wait at all! I loved the ambiance, it felt very old school diner-y. And maybe it would have been 5 stars if I would have had a dessert. It was worth a visit but definitely not the best meal I've ever had.

    First time coming here. Didn't disappoint. We had a french dip sandwich. Full of soft meat with onion rings. Had to order dessert, which was fresh strawberry cheesecake. Was delicious had to take home.

    I took a party of 14 people and the staff was nice with patient, we were seated within 10 minute's, they offered food/drinks in the lobby while waiting and the food is always delicious. The menu is overwhelming but whatever you choose, it's guaranteed to be fresh, hot and good. I love coming here bringing family from out of the town. No complaints at all. One of my favorites restaurant's. Well worth the 2 hour round-trip.

    Food was good, atmosphere and service was great! Those in the group who had cake said it was amazing! Wish I had room after my meal! We had a large party come in, we were seated within a few minutes, and shortly after ordering food came out quick and hot!

  • 5/5 Charles T. 1 year ago on Google
    Authentic diner with an amazing.menu! I had the Greek Special. I could only eat half of it. The meal was perfection! A sure fire hit! Must try...I wasn't able to even save room for a classic carrot cake! Highly recommend!!! Great staff, ready to please! Thanks!

    A local classic with a huge menu and personable, friendly staff. The food options here are plentiful, from burgers and all-day breakfast to Italian and Greek cuisine. The Tour of Italy was extremely cheesy but delicious, and the banana split is a fun classic diner dessert to try.

    We were passing through the area and stopped at Marietta Diner for breakfast. This was some place we wanted to try on a past visit to the area and missed out on. We were looking forward to breakfast. I ordered the Strawberry French Toast and my wife got a Ham and Cheese Omelet. The food was good. My french toast came served with a piece of country ham on the plate. I do not eat it so I gave it to my wife and didn't think much of it. Halfway through the meal, a staff member (not our server) came over confrontational that I didn't order that ham. His tone and body language was very confrontational like it was my fault. Your staff prepared the plate and your server served the plate. I've never been here and didn't know there policies, it was a holiday I felt it might have been a good gesture. There was better ways to handle that, but tom come off aggressive like it was an intentional act by us to scheme them was uncalled for.

    Not only was the food ABSOLUTELY BEST FOOD I’ve had in a long time,our Waiter over the top and an extremely nice gentleman was walking around chatting,he stopped and talked with us,turned out he was one of the original founders of this restaurant. When I was younger, we used to eat here and then go across the street and bowl but they tore the bowling alley down. Thank God this place is still there. If you’ve never ate there, I’m telling you don’t miss out their food is life-changing.!😅👊 in the service absolutely the best
