This restaurant has been on my list for a while. Went there for a date night. Service was great; Rick the General Mgr went out his way to make us feel welcome and apologized for the few entrees I asked for that weren’t on the menu or sold out for the night. Their iconic dessert that he gave us on the house was both a delicious treat of sight and taste! Thank you!

The food was excellent. The space was super cool. We were on a strange shaped table but there were 3 of us so it worked out. Our server was both making our coctails and serving. That gave her too many jobs to be efficient. I don't know what the bartender was doing but he was not helping her. Prices match the quality, but I would like to see the small bites cheaper than the taco dishes. I would go again.

Whether choosing to 'graze' with the appetizers or small plates, or jump right into the tacos and mains, we have only had great dishes after several meals. The last visit confirmed that the guac and salsa sampler is a great choice to have for talking over margaritas. The fried cheese is also fantastic even if better suited to 3-4 people if you want to have other dishes later. Alma Cocina has become one of our favorite places in Atlanta.

Amazing experience. Staff was phenomenal from the moment we walked in. The restaurant is well keep. Service was great, margaritas was some of the best I’ve had. Food menu was different from any Latin restaurant I’ve ever been to. Food was absolutely delicious. Next time I’m in Atlanta I’m 100% going back.

Food was delicious but super slow. Drinks and service was awful. We did not have waters until about halfway through our meal. The GM is nice but he's not going to make any changes anytime soon. Downtown location is better!
