46 Best Bar & Grill in Atlanta

“Our small gathering on the 6th of December was heavenly. This young lady was sweating and smiling so I had to photo her. The overall experience was great with Service and the Atmosphere was breath taking. The food was exceptional except the desserts were a little dis tasteful, but, I had eaten so much it could be my palate. This is one of the most pleasant experiences that I have been a part of in 2025. Please keep up the momentum. Happy Holidays.“

“My friend girl brought me to this restaurant for my birthday. I had the turkey ribs, collards, yams and Mac and cheese and the bread pudding, we even tried the fried green tomato,she had the turkey wings. OH ! My gosh the food was sooo, ( never heard of nor had a turkey ribs) it was so tender and the sauce was point on. I don't mind paying a good piece if the service and food is great. When I left this restaurant I took a picture and posted on Facebook, telling everybody I know about this fabulous time at this place and they got to try it out. The service, and my waiter was a 10 .plus“

“Staff was excellent, good was fantastic, music was loud enough to be heard but not so loud as to drown out conversation, lots of fantastic decorations. We went there for dinner last night and returned for lunch today. Food absolutely worth the price!!!“

“Good food, relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, cold beer, good wine… We will be back !“

“The drinks are the bomb!!“

“Great service and food near GT.“

“I'm lowkey drunk (Peachring drink was sooooo good) and our server (I think his name is Chandler) gave us AMAZING recommendations. Obv 21+ to enter (It's my 21st birthday!!!) but atmosphere is super chill and they had cute grunge pinup girl photos where we sat. Great food!! Great drinks!!! Thank you Chandler!!!!!“

“I visited SM44 ATL for Mother’s Day and overall I’d give the food about a 3.5/5 stars. The experience wasn’t bad, but a few things felt like they were missing something special.

I had the oysters topped with crawfish, and honestly that combination didn’t really work for me. My sea bass was good, although I think it would’ve been even better if it wasn’t served as such a fillet that was randomly placed on the plate. I substituted one of my sides for Brussels sprouts — the flavor was okay, but they definitely could’ve been crispier.

The lobster mac & cheese was good too, but I expected it to be a little creamier. The fettuccine was flavorful and they were very generous with the Parmesan cheese. Someone at the table ordered the crispy chicken over grits, but I didn’t personally taste it.

My martini was decent, but if you’re going to garnish drinks with fruit, it should be fresh. The fruit on top looked soggy and was falling apart.

Presentation overall was nice, although the mac & cheese presentation felt a little too casual for what seems to be aiming for an upscale/elegant dining experience. The atmosphere itself was interesting — more like a bar with dinner tables than a true fine dining vibe.

Overall, not terrible, but for the price and aesthetic, I expected a little more refinement in both flavor and presentation.“

“The best steaks in South Atlanta. Casual environment. Top notch service.“

“first time at this restaurant. Great staff, food and drinks.“

“I had an incredible experience at HAPPY HOUR ATL!!! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the vibrant atmosphere and the welcoming staff. The food was absolutely top-notch—each dish was bursting with flavor and perfectly prepared. The cocktails were expertly crafted, offering unique twists on classic drinks, and the hookah flavors provided a relaxing vibe to enjoy before and after the meal. Whether you're looking for a great meal, delicious drinks, or a chill place to unwind with friends, this spot has it all. Highly recommend it for a night out—I'll definitely be returning! Five stars all the way!“

“Huge fan! Great place to hang with friends and meet new people!“

“It is a nice place for a date night, to hang out with your friends, or to simply have a beer by yourself. Great atmosphere!“

“Salmon was great, fresh, tasty!! Terrific bar tenders!! Ask for Charles, he is amazing!!!“

“ATL!! This is THE SPOT. What a great place. The atmosphere is electric, a dope DJ on the weekends and GAMES; darts, ping pong, skee ball and more. Chicken fingers that melt in your mouth and the adult drinks get the job done! If you're going anywhere else you're wasting your weekend. Go check it out!“

“In from out of town but treated like a local from the start. Alex was amazing from the beginning. He was the first one to great us and through out the night was super friendly and attentive. If I was local, this would 100% be my local hang. Will visit again when in town.“

“If you love watching airplanes ✈️ and getting away from the chaos of the rest of the airport, then you would love going to Gordon Bierch on your layover in this very busy airport! It's my go-to every time! I love the food and view from the window of watching the planes move and land right in front of you. It's a little pricey, $20-$30/person, but to me, it's well worth the experience! :)“

“I stop in here for lunch once a week. The staff remembers me, the food is great and it comes out quick. I like the grilled chicken sandwich.

They have several TVs so I am able catch up on news and sports while I am there.

Also ample free parking.“

“My home away from home 🖤🖤🖤“

“Candice was an AMAZING server!! She was attentive, efficient, and friendly. I really appreciate her warm hospitality…good customer service is lacking lately, but it was so refreshing to have Candice as my server today.“

“The bar is great--good service, neighborhood feel. If you get a table, you order from the bartender & someone will bring the food out. If you need silverware or condiments, etc, either quickly catch the person who drops it off or hunt it down yourself. The wings are ok. Onion rings are heavily battered-- go with the tater tots. Fish & chips are amazing.“

“Bucket Shop is THE place to be in Atlanta for Auburn football and basketball games - if you can't be in Auburn. The food is fantastic! Menu is full of delicious items to more than satisfy your bar-food hankerin's. Terrific Spirits, Beer & Wine. Servers and GM are friendly & attentive. It's more than a restaurant - it's family!“

“Just great vibes and customer service!“

“i had wings before from here and they were ok however tonight i ordered and had it delivered 2 orders of red beans and rice with catfish and not only was the cat fish undercooked but it was old and spoiled. It reeked i could never eat here again. Tje chef had to know that fish was no good.“

“Let me give a shout out to my girl Tracy!!! We are in from out of town and I myself is in the service industry. Absolutely great service, yummy food, and amazing atmosphere. Please make sure if you can drop by and check it out!!!“

“This place was an amazing vibe. The design is very artistic. The food is great. Those jerk turkey burgers were great. The wings, fries and fish is good also. The Margaritas we sooo good. The owners Will and Johnathan we very personable along with the waitresses. This is my new spot!!!!!“

“Great meetup place for food and drinks!“

“The establishment itself is ok. Vintage. Nostalgic. Music is fine and the crowd can be hit or miss. Never ordered food here because I am either too busy trying to dance or dodging the insane amount of creepy and aggressive guys here. Drinks are cheap and strong, perhaps that fuels the issue of the sort of patrons that frequent this place.

I am leaving 5 stars SOLELY for our bartender, Natasha. SHE deserves way more than 5 stars and makes the place look good. She was so attentive and managed to serve the sea of people around the bar efficiently and gracefully. But aside from the top notch service, she immediately clocked what could’ve escalated into a dangerous situation and intervened.

As stated before, the men here have a reputation and many live up to it. They fall somewhere on the spectrum of sloppy and irritating to absolute animals. And in my experience, out of all the places I’ve had a night out in ATL, this is one of the places where it is particularly bad. Like JH is their gathering place or something, I don’t know. But when faced with a man who was being extremely pushy and not respecting my wish to get away from me, Natasha immediately stepped in to back me up without me even asking! This guy was gross and belligerent and getting angry that he was being asked to step away, as if he was being blocked from engaging with someone who was willing to interact with him. I was not. And when he wouldn’t step away, Natasha flagged security to get him out. And thank god for that. We were able to enjoy the rest of the night and we appreciated the tone it sets for the patrons.

Would also like to shout out security for being the muscle. But between Natasha and enforcement, patrons are aware that there is someone there to help them if needed. And hopefully it serves as a deterrent for anyone who may get out of line.“

“Food, staff, drinks... all 20 out of 10.“

“Team Trivia Wednesdays at 7:30!!!“

“Shrimp tacos were legendary! Garlic knots; hot, tasty, and ohhh sooo delicious! Honey bbq wings were worth every bite and penny! Owner is such a lovely person, taking time to speak with us. Definitely a fabulous dining experience.“

“We got there at 1am on the Sunday before memorial day and The food was good. I had the Beef ribs tips and fries, and my wife had lemon pepper wings and fries, we very much enjoyed it. It was my first time there and I was thoroughly impressed with the thier cleanliness and attentive service. It was a excellent experience“

“I had such a great time at whisky mistress my bartender was Andria she was so sweet &attentive ,she moves with a sense of urgency ! It was my birthday and she made it so nice .my husband and I loved her Drinks & service !

Ask for Andria if you decide to visit!“

“my family and i came friday night and sat in the restaurant around 9:20pm, which was pretty close to the closing time (10pm). luckily, our server was very attentive and friendly! she got us seated right away and was helpful.

the food came out around 9:45pm, but we were able to still eat peacefully and not be rushed. we got the spinach artichoke dip as an appetizer; i think it was made with cream cheese and the pita chips were warm!

the salmon was well cooked and flavorful! the broccoli had a somewhat strong garlic taste, but it was still delicious! the mac and cheese was also good, the breadcrumbs gave it a nice touch! my family also enjoyed their dishes!

overall, everything went will and the food tasted good ??️

Parking: parking on site through the hotel“

“We just got beers while at the airport in Atlanta - other than being philthy expensive they were cold and served with a smile. It took longer to pay the bill than drink the beer - but we had a 4 hour layover that turned into a 6 hour layover - so no biggie.“

“pues la rrica comida ke venden y la música que el di de pone“

“Best wings i ever had definitely recommend“

“Muy rica la comida con buen sazón y todos son muy amables . Mi lugar favorito“

“Such a fun spot to watch the game! The atmosphere was high energy and the drinks were flowing. We ordered the lemon pepper wings and they were perfectly crispy and delicious. Knocked off one star just because it gets super packed and it can take a minute to get the bartender's attention, but the vibes and food make up for it.“

“X Midtown (TEN) offers a sleek, modern dining experience with a trendy Midtown vibe. The menu blends Asian-inspired dishes with creative cocktails, making it a fun place for dinner or a night out. I liked the stylish atmosphere and upbeat energy inside. Service was attentive and the presentation of the dishes looked great. A solid spot if you want something a little more lively and upscale.“

“I visited for the first time last night The atmosphere was great, karaoke was fun,food was delicious,and the bathrooms were clean. Our waitress Brittney was amazing.My friend was a little irritated that the drinks weren't coming fast enough,it appeared that they definitely need more waitresses and bartenders. 15.00 all you can drink( well drinks) was good for me.Check it out yourself, beautiful place.“

“This place has good food, drinks, hookah and best is the atmosphere. The bartender Brooke is great and her drink-making skills were phenomenal. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and kept the bar running smoothly and efficiently, even during busy periods.“

“Shaft was a great host and our waiter Lauren was great also. Friendly laidback atmosphere. Mature crowd.“
