Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Dunwoody

Wonderful spot made even more wonderful by our server Gustavo. Most recently we went for Christmas Eve dinner. My 11 year old son has celiac disease and is always incredibly concerned about kitchens not taking his need for gluten free food to heart. We told Gustavo about his gluten allergy right when we sat down and was as very understanding and accommodating and brought us a GF menu. Once our food arrived we noticed our son was not eating—we asked him why and he said he was worried about cross contamination. We pulled Gustavo aside and told him our son was concerned and struggling to eat and we asked if he could reassure him that his food was In fact GF. Sweet Gustavo went over to our son and talked to him about how the kitchen made accommodations for his food and the chef was aware and he pinky promised him (they did the handshake and all) that everything was in fact GF and that he made sure of it, checking multiple times with the kitchen staff. My husband and I literally started crying cause we were so moved by his sensitivity, attention and kindness to our son who is so insecure when we go out to eat. That kind of sensitivity and attention is not something you come across everyday and we are immensely grateful. All that to say The Capital Grille has now been added to our *very* short list of restaurants my son feels comfortable eating at!!!

We had the pleasure of dining at Ray’s for Christmas Eve dinner, and it was an unforgettable experience. The festive ambiance set the perfect tone for the evening, with beautifully decorated spaces and a warm, welcoming holiday spirit. The steaks were absolutely outstanding—cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor. Every bite was a delight. The attentive staff truly elevated the experience, ensuring our every need was met with professionalism and genuine care. To top it off, the atmosphere was simply beautiful, creating a cozy yet elegant setting that made the evening feel extra special. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for an exceptional dining experience, Ray’s is highly recommended. We can’t wait to return

I have eaten there many times and this one was the absolute best. I cannot explain why the Buckhead location is so much better than the Perimeter one, but it is. They do the best cook on the porcini rubbed steak which is my go-to choice for steaks anywhere. The server Joe and the Manager Michael Kelemu were very accommodating and made this experience one that I will remember for a long time.

We came for a birthday lunch and it was excellent. Highly recommend the chicken schnitzel for the entree and the grit fritters for an appetizer. Service was very good. It can get loud if you go for a weekend night out, but it’s a great local East Cobb spot.

Bask never disappoints. This was our family Christmas dinner this year and everything was amazing. We had oysters, a crab cake, and lobster morsels for appetizers and scallops, the 60-day cowboy cut ribeye, and pan seared chicken for entrees. All were cooked and seasoned perfectly. We finished by splitting the apple galette for dessert with the delectable salted caramel ice cream on top. The service was outstanding as well. Tyler (in the bar/lounge area) took care of us all night.
