It’s a fine dining experience here at Tiny Lou’s. I came here from western Massachusetts where French cuisine is tough to find. From the espresso martini to the glorious halibut, exquisite! A must visit for local Atlanta residents.

We came to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday. They were able to accommodate us with a booth request. They had a special menu with the words ‘happy birthday’ on his menu, cute touch. Our server, Brett, was phenomenal. Every dish we ordered he explained to the T, so no unknown surprises. He saw I was taking photos and grabbed another candle for me! Great experience once again. We love coming here and can’t wait for next years new menu! Cheers!
