About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
Owned by brothers John-Thomas and Christopher Scott, Parker's on Ponce is Decatur's first independently owned steakhouse. The Scott family has always been extremely involved in the local community, including local government. The restaurant is named after John-Thomas' 12 year old daughter, Parker. The whole family is often seen at the restaurant - it is not a business to them, but a home - and they treat guests of the restaurant as family as well.

    Food wasn’t flavorful, portions were small and for a steakhouse the steak was underwhelming.

    Fantastic food and service! This is a hidden gem- Atlanta ambiance and food tucked away in the burbs at a slightly better price and in a very sweet area. We came for our anniversary and each person wished us a @happy anniversary/ we also got a card on our table telling us the same as well as saying dessert was on them. What a great surprise!

    Excellent filet and stuffed trout. Rice and cheese and antipasti with a very hardy portion. Prices within the range for theses well-prepared dishes.

    Food was excellent. Glad we got there only to enjoy the first only half-bottle of the bourbon special.

    Overall, we had a wonderful first experience. Our food was excellent. Our server, Ryan, made a few recommendations upon request and provided efficient service while allowing us privacy. A nice touch was our welcome card celebrating a birthday and offering a complimentary dessert. Our steaks were divine. Truly. One of the best I've had in a city full of great steak offerings. The only minor knock and it's probably just a confluence of circumstances, but we were sat in a back dining area away from the main room and there was one large table just finishing when we arrived. So, once they left, it was just the two of us, alone. It felt cavernous and a bit cold...others may have found it nice to have their own private area...Had we been dining on Saturday evening instead of Sunday evening, I doubt it would have been an issue, so not a real negative, just something we both noticed.
