"This is my fourth time at Corner Grille service and food are excellent. we had the grouper, one blackened and the other I requested with limited seasoning. Both excellent! I was disappointed they were out of ice tea and other non carbonated beverages. I believe restaurants should stock supplies accordingly, and or purchase from a local store when they run out. we will return again in the future."

"356, named after the predecessor to the iconic Porsche 911, is unique since it is located at Porsche Experience Center Atlanta (also North American headquarters for Porsche Cars) with good views of the center's east track and the planes arriving at closely adjacent ATL runway 26R. We asked to combine the Insalade Verde with baked salmon and they were very accommodating. The excellent salad contains very fresh crisp greens, goat cheese, pickled strawberries, candied pecans and crispy onions with a lemon-poppy dressing . Both the salad and nicely seasoned salmon portions were generous and it was a delicious combination. The butter pieces are shaped into 911 cars, a nice touch, and served with tasty warm pretzel rolls. The most popular item on the menu is a classic Wiener Schnitzel, made with pork. Staff are very friendly and attentive. There is an interesting collection of Porsche cars also on display in the building and a small shop selling Porsche related goods. A great place to dine, whether or not you combine it with time in a Porsche on one of the center's two tracks. Open for lunch only and for special events (private or part of the Porsche Dining Experience program)."

"We took the stairs to the second floor and ended up getting a little lost—what a funny start to our evening! Just a tip: the entrance is also the exit, and you need to push the door instead of pulling it, which caused a little confusion. Because of that, I think the host forgot to ask us about our reservation, but it didn’t matter as we were quickly seated. It wasn’t a busy night, with most of the occupied tables being by the windows, but we were informed that guest numbers are limited. Then the food began arriving! My husband had oysters for his starter, while I enjoyed a strawberry avocado salad. Our starters were easily shareable. Normally, we would have wine, but my husband opted for a beer to accompany his main dish this time. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and we want to thank all the staff who made our evening special, especially our main server—whose name I unfortunately can't recall. The main attraction is the race track, but be aware that there are no cars after 4 PM, according to the security staff. However, you can still marvel at the stunning collection of Porsche cars in the showroom. I highly recommend this place!"

"This is the second location I’ve visited, and it was just as good as the first. I sat so comfortably at the bar that I had my date join me there. My drink was one-and-done, and while I waited I also ordered the “Cajun popcorn” which is a fried crawfish dish. It was a tasty starter. In past visits, I favored the bourbon maple chicken dish. It’s my absolute favorite at this restaurant, but I wanted to try something different. For an entree, I had the redfish ponchartrain. The first dish was way over cooked, but I HATE sending food back. However, the char was so overwhelming that I couldn’t taste anything but char. I ultimately sent it back, and I’m glad I did because the second dish was amazing! The crab and the sauce made the flavors in this dish pop! I would definitely order it again. The service here is friendly and pleasant, and parking is conveniently right out front. As far as ambiance, this location is right near the airport, and most of the restaurants in the area seem dated. It’s clean, but all the wood paneling and features don’t make it the sexiest. However, go and enjoy a great meal. It’s there."

"--- Well, everyone, I recently discovered a charming little restaurant just off the main road, conveniently located not far from the airport. This makes it a great option if you find yourself with some unexpected downtime between flights. One aspect that really stood out to me was the service. From the moment I walked in to meet my friends—who had snagged a table while I traveled from home 30 minutes away—I was warmly greeted by the staff. Even the crew members taking a break outside checked in on me, making sure I knew where to go. Once I joined my party of three, the waiter began to share some recommendations. We were all quite hungry and decided to skip appetizers and jump straight to ordering our meals. I chose the daily special, a brined pork chop, and I must say it was fantastic. It was incredibly juicy, perfectly cooked, and not overly salty—a balance that can be hard to achieve at many places. I also ordered French fries and some Brussels sprouts, which made my mom proud since I opted for healthier veggies. The sprouts were delightful—roasted, oiled, and seasoned just right. They had a lovely roasted flavor that I truly appreciated. I'm already looking forward to returning to try more dishes from the menu. One of my friends is vegan and has a gluten allergy, and the waiter was incredibly patient and accommodating in helping her create a suitable meal. While I'm a big fan of meat dishes, I enjoyed seeing how knowledgeable he was about the menu, guiding her to options that worked for her diet, rather than just settling for a plain salad. I’m not sure how her meal turned out, but my sister-in-law's friend said she would definitely want to come back again, which is a good sign! The atmosphere of the restaurant feels like an old house that has been converted into a dining space—spacious yet cozy. I’m considering suggesting it for my next work lunch meeting since I work nearby. There are also some intriguing historical postings around the restaurant that adds to its charm, and I encourage you to discover that for yourself when you visit. Bon appétit!"
