Bone's Review

Atlanta's best and most famous steakhouse, Bone's is a top power-lunch venue for the expense-account crowd. As many deals as steaks are cut here, and the place is rich with celebrity lore. When Bob Hope dined here, everyone respected his privacy until he rose to leave; then the entire dining room gave him a standing ovation. The setting is traditional masculine-clubby.

The star of the menu is prime-aged, corn-fed Iowa beef, hand cut on the premises and always prepared exactly as ordered. Thick, juicy lamb chops are excellent alternatives to the beef. Noted for its seafood as well as for its steaks and chops, Bone's flies Maine lobsters in daily and serves fresh Gulf Coast crab and shrimp. Lighter entrees are available at lunch, along with salads, sandwiches, and soups. The wine gallery houses more than 500 selections, international in scope, and it highlights French and California vintages. The ultrarich desserts include "Mountain-high Pie" -- layers of chocolate chip, rum raisin, and vanilla ice cream.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
