Willie Raes Social House - Marietta (GA)

1 /5 Marc Smith-Myrtil: I had really high hopes for this place. The menu seemed really great. However, I found a bug in my water. It looked like a roach. I’m not sure but I couldn’t eat there after seeing it. Truly disappointing. The server was lovely!

5 /5 Elizabeth Otero-Rodriguez: First time at Willie Raes and I loved it! My family and I had such a good time. The atmosphere was great! The food was wonderful! The service was amazing! They helped us celebrate my husbands birthday in style. They made us feel like we were the only ones there and I appreciate that very much. Thank you! Fyi- my kids ate the Beignets so fast I only took a picture of the last one that was left.☺️

5 /5 Jessi Pacetti: I recently had the pleasure of visiting Willie Raes Social House while catching up with friends in the area, and let me tell you, I experienced an authentic Southern treat that I wont soon forget! As a firm believer that dessert should be enjoyed whenever the spirit moves you, I decided to kick things off with Raes Beignets, and I highly recommend taking that route as your first stop! They were light, fluffy, and utterly delicious—just the perfect way to start the meal. The rest of my table opted to play by the "rules," so we also indulged in their famous Spinach Artichoke Dip, which was creamy and rich—definitely a crowd-pleaser! For my main course, I chose the Ragin Cajun Pasta, and it truly hit the spot. The dish was bursting with flavor and had just the right amount of spice without being overwhelming. The preparation was spot on, making it a delightful experience for my taste buds. Overall, I couldnt have asked for a better dinner. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was lively, and the service was attentive and friendly. If youre in the area and looking for an unforgettable Southern dining experience, I highly recommend Willie Raes Social House. Cant wait to come back and explore more of their menu!

2 /5 Jason Bailey: Generally, I give a lot of grace to local restaurants. My wife and I have eaten here before and had very average experiences, but todays was definitely the worst. My father in law lives about an hour away and saw this place on Atlanta Eats, and it is all hes been able to talk about since the episode came out. It showed great food and caring managers, but we feel that must have been a show for the cameras. We ordered the Mimosa tower and when it arrived, it was not the 100z of bubbly as advertised and also had mold growing in the spicket. We told our server and she whisked it away and returned it with a refill, but when we used it again, we found there was still mold in it. We ended up settling for a bottle (which we did get charged for). Our food was also disappointing. My wifes family is from New Orleans, and very careful with the quality of food that they will order since they know it should be prepared and do so at home quite often. The food that arrived didnt look anything like the TV version. The gumbo was bland except for the sausage. The catfish in the catfish PoBoy was good. The whole tables eggs were overcooked. The BBQ was saturated in sauce. No one finished their plate. Finally, the restaurant had a drain backup and water traveled towards tables where customers were actively eating. It seemed like all of the other customers couldnt get out of there fast enough (including us). At the end of the day, there are a lot of options on the Square and we can make quality Cajun food at home for a fraction of the price, so I dont think well be back. My advice to management is that excellence is in the details. If you dont take care in everything you serve to your customers, they will not have a great experience.

5 /5 Natasha 502: I was so pleasantly surprised! I did not want to go but what a lame I was being because everything I ate was delicious! The staff was super kind and attentive going out of their way to make a Smokey old fashion for our cousin. We had both types of chargrilled oysters, fried green tomatoes, and chicken bites. All were super yummy!! Can’t wait to come back for dinner!
