McKendrick's Steakhouse is honored to be chosen for the 4th consecutive year as one of
Tom Horan's America's Top Ten Steakhouses for 2005.
Claudia and Doug McKendrick, along with seasoned restaurateur Rick Crowe have over 25 years of fine dining experience in Atlanta and opened their flagship restaurant in November of 1995. The restaurant is located in Park Place Shopping Center which is in the heart of the Perimeter Center business and shopping district in the north central area of Atlanta easily accessible near the intersection of I-285 and Ashford Dunwoody Road.
The steakhouse is noted for and serves only the finest center-cut USDA prime beef along with Australian cold water lobster and fresh seafood as available. The service staff is unpretentious, friendly and informed as any in town. The menu is complimented by a wine list with over 350 selections from around the globe, which has received national awards such as the Wine Spectator's 2004 and 2005 Award of Excellence.
McKendrick's has a warm, clubby atmosphere with more than ample lush leather seating, solid oak walls and art deco lighting. The music is purely Frank, Dean Sammy and Tony. The restaurant has two private dining rooms, which accommodate groups of 12 to 50 people. The private rooms are the preferred choice of major corporations in the area for private corporate affairs.
Highly rated by the Zagat Survey 2003, 2004, 2005 as clearly one of the best steak houses, top quality beef and huge a'la carte side dishes are brought to table by a courteous staff. Not only are the charred pieces of USDA prime beef excellent, but the kitchen follows through with commendable seafood, salads and a thorough, smart roster of side dishes. You can go safely in many directions on the menu, but you won't go wrong wit the New York strip or a fat porterhouse. And pay attention: the bartender mixes a mean martini - John Kessler of the Atlanta Journal Constitution. McKendrick's has an extremely loyal local and business clientele and reservations are highly recommended. Once you have experiences this wonderful restaurant, you will make it a point to return whenever you have a desire for the freshest seafood and finest prime beef in Atlanta.
