Cattle Shed Wine Steak - Alpharetta

To be honest, the food was disappointing and the service was terrible. My husband and I visited for the first time, and we had high hopes based on other reviews, but our experience fell short. Given the prices here, I would prefer to drive to Buckhead and enjoy a quality steak and better service. We have certainly crossed this place off our list and won't be coming back.

The positives: The seating was comfortable, the wine glasses were spotless, and the wine was served chilled. The menu looked interesting and appealing. However, there were some challenges. Upon entering, we intended to have a quick appetizer and drink at the bar, but we were told to make it a fast visit because the bar stools were reserved. The bartender (who had darker hair) reassured us not to worry about it. We ordered our wine and asked the same bartender to inform us when he had a moment to take our appetizer order. Unfortunately, he never returned, so we ended up paying and leaving without placing an order. The establishment appeared nice, and the food being served looked good, but we felt rather unwelcome. Given the prices, one would expect better service. We likely won’t return unless someone else chooses the venue.

The food is outstanding! We really enjoy the small plates, and there's not a single one we wouldn't recommend.

Wonderfully prepared steaks. Top notch on my rare NY Strip. Sides are decent. Definitely a steak place.

The restaurant is located in Halcyon, which is a mix-used outdoor mall. We dined for Valentine's Day. My husband made an 8:15 pm reservation and they allowed several others to make 8:15 goals. That was not favorable because we were waiting with a lot of couples.Nonetheless, we ate outside. Although it was chilly, the outdoor heaters made it bearable. The service was impeccable. The food was OK. I liked the fixed menu and price, it was a great deal. The filet mignon was good. The Mac anf cheese was OK. The broccolini was too spicy. The Creme Brulee wasn't really hard on top and lacked flavor. Although NY Cheesecake was large, it wasn't sweet enough. I loved the Love Portion No. 9 cocktail, but didn't like the Sweet Tart.
