Stopped in after Atl UTD game. Our server, Angelina, was a delight! She was very helpful with my gf needs. Food was delicious! Will return!!

The food and drinks were good! Our server, Noah, was excellent!

Excellent service, explained all of the dishes so thoroughly and made wonderful suggestions. We will definitely be back!

Our server had way too many tables and couldn't be attentive to his customers. My food was served warm, as if it were sitting somewhere waiting to be brought to the table. Overall, it was just a blah experience. I wouldn't go back.

We sincerely loved it! Drove to Atlanta from Gainesville Florida mostly for the experience of eating at Alma! Heard about this restaurant from the Big Boo podcast and it did not disappoint! The food was fantastic and the service was amazing!

We had a reservation but opted to sit at the bar and the staff was amazing!! They were about to close but they took care of us like we were family!

Everything was good, other than the big ice cube cocktail. The server was excellent, ambience was great, food was good, but the cocktail was just average. That said, a cocktail like this would have easily cost $5-$10 more in NJ/NY.

The portions were much smaller than we expected. We ordered the guac trio for $15 and got about 3 scoops of guac overall. When our entrees came, the rice and beans on the side were cold for both of our plates. I tried the red rose and it was pretty good, but my partners drink was syrupy and overly sweet

Great food, Noah was our Server and he was Awesome!

Honestly, we went in there with high hopes. I was intrigued by some of the menu items. We did the Salsa and guacamole tasting. Basically the hearts of palm and peach guacamole was nothing more than on the first hearts of palm and tomato mixed into regular guacamole and in the second peach and mango salsa mixed into regular guacamole. That was the first disappointment. Then we got the fried squash blossoms. They were small, limp, and pathetic looking. They almost looked too sad to eat. I was expecting large robust squash blossoms that were fried and stuffed. These looked like weeds that had been picked up on the side of the road. And cost $19! Then we had the empanada. They claim it’s truffle. Come on. It’s just mushrooms. Average at best. The only saving grace was the desert. The Great Wall of alma. It was different. I would never come here again. I understand that downtown and connected to the ritz Carlton you are going to pay downtown prices but I don’t thing the food is worth it. Not when I can go a few blocks up and get better food at better prices. I don’t think they care about what they present to their customers. They certainly didn’t seem to care what they presented to us.
