Best Authentic Restaurants in Smyrna

Wonderful! Great service and delicious food. We'll be back!

My son’s and I had a delightful Christmas Eve dinner and it was amazing! We had chicken parm, veal piccata and shrimp gnocchi. The meal was fantastic and the dessert even better! Thanks for such nice hospitality on a hectic day! Holly jolly - we will be back!

Our annual Christmas Eve lunch at Bistro Niko was extra special this year! Somehow the restaurant was even more beautifully decorated for the holidays. The food and service were amazing as always, and the new Cajun Chicken entree was fantastic. Thank you for taking such great care of my family - we love kicking off the holiday season with you!

I frequently travel and eat out. I can’t remember the last time I had such excellent service offered. Servers and managers helped each other. Food was good, quickly brought to table with multiple staff members asking if everything was okay and if needed anything else.

We love Mexico Lindo. There is an authenticity with the food, place, staff, music, and overall vibe. The food is excellent and the portions are large. The alcoholic beverages are strong and well made. In a time when most establishments are understaffed, Mexico Lindo typically has a large staff, and even the worse among them works hard. The hosts, bartenders, barbacks, servers, food runners, and those in the kitchen each provide an authentic piece to an overall masterpiece. If you want a more authentic and cultural experience, and enjoy quality food, strong drinks, excellent music, try Mexico Lindo on South Cobb. You'll find working managers in this place, as everybody has a role in the overall success. While each employee brings a distinct personality, each adds to the authenticity of the place. Part of me wants to beat the drum and summon everybody in the Atlanta area to try this establishment, while another part wants to keep it a secret and see nobody I know when visiting this wonderful establishment. The inside is well air-conditioned, and the patios, downstairs and upstairs offer excellent seating options, as do the bars downstairs and upstairs. This is a good place to come on a date, go alone, or a group. Nothing is for everybody, but if you do not love Mexico Lindo, the problem might be you. We love the place!
