Restaurant Review: Chicken and the Egg
DH and I decided to go to the Chicken and the Egg in Marietta for my birthday on
Saturday. We were really enjoyed dinner. For appetizers, we had the deviled eggs
with truffle oil and fried green tomatos with pimento cheese and some kind of
slightly spicy jam. Mr. Sadle likes deviled eggs more than I do, so he loved
them. I thought they were ok. IMO, DH makes the best deviled eggs anywhere, and
these were just different. The truffle oil gave the yolks a slightly earthy
flavor. The fried green tomatos were good. They did not fall apart when cut like
some I've had. Although not a fan of pimento cheese (can you tell DH ordered the
apps?), I enjoyed this version. He had the short ribs for his entree; he said it
was the best entree he's had in a while. The au gratin potatos were delicious
and cheesy. There was a hint of bacon in the cheese. I had the pasta with
heirloom tomatos, which tasted light and perfect for a hot summer evening. We
skipped dessert since we had chocolate cake from a Piece of Cake waiting at home
for us. The wine list was small, but I enjoyed a German Reisling. DH liked his
Malbec.
Service was spot on the entire evening. Dinner was paced nicely. The space is
huge; it was maybe 65% full on Sat. night. There were several people at the bar
as well. Parking is easy, as you'd expect in a suburban shopping center. Prices
are a bit lower than you would expect from such a restaurant. If it were located
intown, it would probably be 25% more expensive.
Pros: Good food, like an intown restaurant in the burbs
Cons: Can be a bit noisy
