What People Are Saying About Anis Cafe and Bistro

The Scene – The next best thing to a cottage on the Cote d'Azur, this charming tumbledown cafe is a study in low-key romance. Inside is a cozy bar and a crowded, but comfortable, dining room with heavily plastered walls. The real attraction, though, is the front patio--perfect for long, wine-soaked evenings. Service is friendly, but can't keep pace on a busy evening. – – The Food – Native charm is what's on tap at this French-Mediterranean restaurant. Moules marinieres, plump mussels in a rich broth of white wine and cream, makes a good starter, as does traditionally…

Great French Food, Great French Staff
by 52179apb at Citysearch
My husband and I visited hear last night to celebrate Valentines Day. The ambience was great. Quaint & cozy. Great selection of wines and a wide variety of meal choices for every palette. While we were there, we spotted atleast 5 French customers. That?s when you know the food is good. We recommend this place to everyone.

Best: great food

I had lunch outside on the patio and the atmosphere is wonderful. Unfortunately it took about 15 minutes to be greeted by a waitress. Once I was noticed, she was friendly and attentative. I had the Croque-Monsieur (a favorite of mine) and theirs was wonderful! I had creme brulee for dessert - yummy! I will be back for the steak-frites.
- Pros: food, ambience
- Cons: Parking

As French as it gets in this city
by CDWIII at Citysearch
Here's the deal. This restaurant is as French as it gets in the city. The staff, owners, managers and even cooks parle vous Francais (albeit some with a Dude-Bro accent). Like any good bistro on the Champs Elysee in Paris or on the small back streets of Amien a true French meal takes time. The place will seem cramped and loud but the food an wine will be exceptional! I admit its not for most in this "I want it yesterday society" but I know most can grow to appreciate it, especially if you partake in the wine list as soon as you sit down. Granted my party and I went through two bottles of phenomenal Bordeaux before ingesting an ounce of Gazpacho or Escargot but we truly enjoyed the time we spent together. We got especially loud thanks to the good friends and good wine but no one seemed to care in the slightest (other than my girlfriend who kept telling me to quiet down). Anis is a place you go with people you don't just put up with for a few hours but people you truly enjoy spending time with and conversing. The menu is truly for the French at heart filled with cheese covered, cream-filled goodness (and of course calories). If you dare as I did be sure to hide everything, Parking is difficult on the weekends, they dont have many parking spots behind the restaurant and you have to be lucky to get a spot close by on the street. On a side note service is friendly and the food and wine are very reasonably priced.
- Pros: As authentic as it gets in Atlanta
- Cons: Parking
