   The burger is outrageously good. The artichoke hearts are something you’ll dream about. And the steaks melt in your mouth. OMG and the lobster LaBeaux!!! Unreal!!

   Wow! Our first time here and we were so pleased. The steaks were perfectly done. All sides were delicious. The blue cheese chips appetizer was off the chain!!! Our waiter, Ian, was awesome...so attentive, friendly, and professional. We will definitely be back!!!

   Dine out regularly at nice steakhouses, this was a miss. Service was subpar; on an uncrowded Monday, everything was slow. Steaks were plated absolutely swimming with butter all over the plate (not sure where sides are supposed to go unless you want them doused in butter). Table had 3 different steaks of the same cut ordered medium that were all cooked differently, from medium rare to medium well, but since we had already waited an hour and a half for food, didn’t raise the issue. One side dish came out 15 minutes after the rest of the food for reasons I can’t discern. Parties of 6 or more carry a mandatory 20% gratuity (which is understandable, but may have driven the general ambivalence).

   Avg of $140 per person including wine and beer. Generally a nice environment until you go to hallway bathrooms which smells like a smoking area. Wedge Salad very good, Steaks were a bit salty but good quality meat, vegetables good. Service was good. Probably will not return because we've been to better in this price range.

   This is the second time that I’ve gone to this restaurant in two weeks. First with my husband, and then with a close girlfriend, and it is perfect. Bobby, our waiter is fun, knowledgeable, and we were looked after by every staff member. Very positive and memorable experience, and it’s nice to have a lovely restaurant in the Sandy Springs area

    We went to celebrate our anniversary with a special dinner at Nowak's and had very high hopes, but the restaurant was disappointing in many respects. Pros were its convenient location, low noise level, clubby decor, friendly server, and delicious wine & food. Cons outweighed the pros unfortunately. Despite having a reservation for a special occasion, we were not greeted by name, and our special occasion wasn't acknowledged in any way. They were out of two things we ordered, and we didn't find out about those until well into our meal/wait time. Our server appeared to have too many tables to attend to us regularly. The dessert selections were very underwhelming - only 3, and 1 was not available. We paid well over $200 for a meal for 2 people that was not worth that.
