    The chef's counter experience was top notch and a perfect way to celebrate my husband's birthday. The attention to detail, the attentiveness of the staff and the fun of interacting with the kitchen made it all worth while. Will definitely be doing this again!

    The Alden has an intimate setting which is perfect for a special night out or a culinary adventure. I was celebrating my best friend’s birthday and the staff were genuinely friendly and attentive, making the entire experience feel personal and welcoming. I’m no food critic, but I can recognize fresh, high-quality ingredients, and Chef Jared and his team delivered that in every dish—10/10. Sitting at the counter was the highlight; it’s the best seat in the house. You get to watch the chefs in action, adding a layer of entertainment to the evening. Each course was perfectly timed, creating a seamless dining experience. The combinations of ingredients and pairings were nothing short of fantastic. Some dishes featured bold and unexpected flavors that worked together beautifully. The quail and scallops were my favorites—flawlessly executed and deeply satisfying. I also appreciated the global influences woven into the menu, which made each dish feel like a small journey. And let’s not overlook the fact that Chef Jared is as talented as he is handsome—a fun bonus to an already unforgettable meal. They gave us a birthday treat to top it all off. I can’t wait to go back to experience other dishes.

    The food was excellent and service was spot on! The executive chef came out and talked to our table about the food, the service, and anything that would have made our experience even better. A hidden gem in the Chamblee area. Well worth eating there, and seems like an amazing venue for a romantic dinner!

    Had the five courses tasting menu. Very tasty food and great presentation. But 2 desserts in 5 courses tasting menu I think is too much dessert. We feel like the last dessert was a waste. I rather have another light appetizer or soup. We would like to come back and try other dishes.

    Food outstanding. Service not the level I’m accustomed to here. Had to look around a few times for service.
