Restaurants near Courtyard by Marriott Carrollton

We started off the night with a bit of a hiccup when we had to wait 30 mins for the table to get set but the staff more than made up for it. They were very apologetic, brought us champagne while we waited, gave us tons of free appetizers, and followed it up with free dessert. It was a great experience and I would definitely go back, based on how great the food was and how much they cared about our experience as guests.

We had reservations and got right in. We had phenomenal service and the food was amazing! I recommend the panini and gelato hands down.

What an incredible experience. The service was amazing. Thank you Evie - you were outstanding with your recommendations and your attention to every detail making a great experience. The way you coursed out the evening was marvelous. Started the evening off with cocktails and the delicious complementary bread and butter service. Appetizers were amazing. We selected the Oysters Rockefeller, the Korean Style Filet Mignon, the Roasted Bone Marrow Canoes, the Maine Lobster Bisque, and the Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail to start off the evening. All were amazing. For entrees we selected the 18 Oz Dry Aged Bone-In Lollipop Ribeye with Marrow Butter (steak was amazing) , the Roasted Pork Chop entree, as well as he Broiled Lobster Tail entree. For shareable sides we selected the Mac and Cheese and the Loaded Bake Potato. Finished off with the amazing Bread Pudding (to die for). Can’t wait to return for another breathtaking experience with the Little Alley Steak House team. Great job and highly recommended.

It was our first visit at Hal's, which was highly recommended by friends. Parking is valet-only, which is fine with us, and we were able to easily get into the restaurant. The atmosphere was quite dark, but works well in this building. The wait staff were courteous and attentive without being pretentious, pushy or looming over the table. For starters, we split the calamari, and each had a Caesar salad. In truth, I was not blown away by either. To be clear, in an average restaurant both would have been above expectations. But this was the highly recommended Hal's, so I was expecting it to be a little more unique. So, this was "fine", but not great. The seafood gumbo was great. It had the right meat to roux ratio and seasoned just as they would in Baton Rouge. Similarly, the 22 oz prime cut was outstanding. I was pleasantly surprised after the average appetizers and could easily get past the slightly disappointing start. Finally, I would give 5 stars for the cadence, or timing, of the overall experience. We didn't have to wait too long on anything. Courses did not overlap, and dishware did not linger on the table. It didn't matter if our waiter was in eyeshot - there was a cadre of staff utilizing zone coverage. Overall, a very good experience. We will be back.

Good food and service. Good value for the quality.
