    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **5 Stars!** Our first visit to Luella’s, and what an incredible experience! The veal Parmesan was hands down the best I’ve ever had—and I’ve had some pretty amazing ones over the years! Beyond the delicious food, what really stood out was the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the personalized attention from the entire team. Our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and offered excellent recommendations that made our evening even more enjoyable. Luella’s truly knows how to combine exceptional food with genuine hospitality. An outstanding first impression, and definitely a dining experience we look forward to repeating!

    Our food and service at Luella were phenomenal! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious, and our server, Nikki, was fantastic. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, funny, and made the entire experience even more enjoyable. It’s a must-visit, and we loved coming back to this Atlanta landmark as a restaurant! We had such a great time and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

    The experience was great! I gave the food a 4 because the sides were just okay and the cocktails were mediocre. The staff was really attentive. My only complaint is they charge a surcharge for using credit cards and the prices were already inflated.
    LuellaResponded on 1 October 2026
    Felicia, we're pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your experience and our staff, but we are sorry to hear you didn't feel your sides and cocktails were perfect. Please know that if you ever order that isn't exactly as you had hoped, we want to hear about it on the spot so we can make you a new version or help you choose something else you will love. We do have a 3.5% adjustment for non-cash payments, but we just break it out separately rather than add it into the prices like most restaurants do so that guests paying with cash don't have to pay it. Thank you for your visit, and hopefully, you will be back soon for what we're certain will be an excellent dining experience.
