“As always, La Grotta remains one of the best Italian restaurants around. The atmosphere is classy, so please dress accordingly, as people go for both the atmosphere as well as the food/vino. The super tuscan vino is great if you are looking for a new wine to try, you can order a glass or the bottle (I recommend bottle if there are 3+ in your party it ends up being cheaper than individual glasses). The sacchetti as well as the pappardelle are both wonderful dishes. The gnocchi is cooked perfectly if you are a gnocchi fan.“
“Sunday Brunch was really good. Chicken was seasoned well and waffles were light and fluffy! Owner had an awesome spirit about her. Music and atmosphere was on point. Our waitress was a swertheart,, I forgot her name but she had a boot on her foot! My son loved his rasta pasta... and he hates everything!!!!“
“I visited Bar Vegan last weekend with my family from out of town and we really enjoyed it! Our server Alex provided us with the greatest customer service and made sure we were satisfied with the food and drink selections. She was very friendly, down to earth, and professional. I highly recommend this place and Alex as your server!“
“Another amazing restaurant from Marcus Samuelsson!! The atmosphere is relaxed, eclectic, and comfortable. The food was amazing— each bite was better than the one before it. The staff was fast and efficient— the whole place is a cool, welcoming vibe.“
“I wanted to try a Michelin star restaurant. This place did not disappoint! The parking was free! The staff was so kind. It was not hoity toity either. I didn't need to know the cutlery as they brought out new pieces for each course. It was the most expensive meal I've ever had ($200+/plate) so I don't recommend bringing kids! The attire was more laid back than we expected, which was also nice. S/O took off his tie. ?It was a great experience.“
“Not busy and wait time for food was ridiculous! Manager not even nice about it. Fries not even hot when entrees arrived. A dragged out not very good dinner. Then my parking ticket that hostess helped validate wasn’t actually validated. Had to pay $22 to get out of deck. Too many other great restaurants in Atlanta! Don’t waste your time here!!!“
“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!!!“
“The food was amazing and delicious and fresh and creative , and I say tasty.The service is spot on and attentive and personable and caring.The atmosphere was vibrant with a lot of energy, and I'm getting old, so forgive me for this, but just a tad loud.It is fun and get your reservation soon.“
“Excellent selection for a famy style meal on Easter. They were perfect and have many suggestions.Vegetarian options: Plentiful. Dietary restrictions: They definitely accommodate you.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly for sure.Wheelchair accessibility: ADA complaint and friendly.“
“We had Easter brunch at Local Three and it was a great place for it! It was a popular Easter Brunch favorite from what we could see. And the ambiance was fun, energetic and special. We were a little disappointed with the food. The flavors were good, but some of it had been sitting out a while and therefore was not as fresh as it might have been had it not been a busy holiday and buffet. We also loved the setting outside the building where Local Three is housed... beautiful park like area which was blooming with flowers and ideal for Easter family photos. All in all, wonderful experience. We may need to go again when it isn't a holiday.“
“Whenever I travel for work I search for "Gastropub" or "Bistro". This place did not disappoint. Great beer selection and elevated bar food to compliment. I had a couple different IPAs and the smash burger....can't speak highly enough of this place. neighborhood vibes and friendly wait staff. I sat outside and enjoyed the weather on a cool April evening......would definitely visit again“
“Came back for the 2nd time, and this restaurant never fails to impress me. Legit thai food, cozy vibes, and staff are amazing!!!Located right next to Lindbergh Marta Station so it is very convenient to commute for those who dont have personal vehicle“
“Red's is a special place with a magical beer garden and bamboo grove. The owners and staff are always welcoming and kind. The service and the food is delightful. Especially Red's special hot dog with the pimento cheese and fig jam! RUN to Red's today!“
“The entire experience was awesome from start to finish!!! The service was impeccable. Food and drinks, amazing. And the QUEENS, are top tier professionals who obviously take great pride in their craft. It was amazing!!! Can't wait to go back!!!“
“I had went to Botica this past Saturday to celebrate my 35th and we had a great time! There was about 16 of us in total. The staff was super friendly and attentive. The food was really good and the mango margarita was strong but lovely. The manager was super kind and came to spoke to my group a couple of times which was nice. Definitely one of the best big group dining experiences. I would go back for the good energy. :) Thank you to the team for making the night wonderful.“
“So glad to have this fantastic addition to Hapeville! Lots of specialty coffees and drinks. The pastries are so delicious and the quiche is the absolute best! All made by Chef Mario and his staff! You have to try it! More options coming soon!“
“Title: A Gastronomic Journey at AgaveRecently, I had the pleasure of dining at Agave, where I was treated to a culinary experience that left a lasting impression. One dish that particularly stood out was the Rack of Lamb with Lobster, a delightful combination that showcased the chef's skillful execution and creativity. Paired with a perfectly crafted French 75 cocktail, the flavors harmonized beautifully, elevating the dining experience.Moreover, I was impressed by the attentive and courteous service provided by our waitress. Her kindness and professionalism added to the overall enjoyment of the meal, creating a welcoming atmosphere for patrons.However, while the atmosphere was pleasant, I found the restaurant a bit cramped, with limited space in the bar area. Additionally, considering the portion sizes and quality of the dishes, I found the price point to be slightly on the higher side.In conclusion, Agave offers a commendable dining experience with its delectable cuisine and excellent service. Despite minor drawbacks such as space constraints and pricing, the restaurant's culinary offerings and attentive staff make it a noteworthy establishment worth visiting.- Calvin“
“We had Grindhouse Killer Burgers food truck for a neighborhood event today and I highly recommend them!! The food was fantastic! They were easy to work with, super kind, clean and organized! Above and beyond customer service! Just outstanding!!“

“This place is great. It’s in Atlanta. Staple where you can put church choir ropes on when you go. On certain days they have drag and karaoke. When you go on the weekends it’s a great place to dance. They also have picnic tables outside. This is a great place to be casual but also have a great time.“
“I come to Peacock a lot. I love the vibe & deals offered on sundays But my favorite part is the customer service from server Nay. She make sure you feel unforgotten. It gets busy in Peacock but Nay makes the experience even better there. If you're looking for a vibe this is the place. & make sure you ask for Nay.“
“Had a dinner party for 8 at YEBO to host the Black Employee Resource Group during our work retreat. I tried to RSVP 4 days in advance for 10 but I was deterred by the requirement to pre-pay $65 a head minimum. I ended up booking the day of for 6 and adding the other 2 people. The experience was outstanding and I would have no reservations pre-paying in the future. The food was delicious, the service was warm and friendly, and the ambiance was intimate but lively.“
“We just had the most amazing brunch at our r of my long-time favorite spots in the city! Steak and eggs were great and my dining g party all commented on how good the food was. Also our server, David, could not have been more pleasant and attentive.Parking: Large free parking lot across Highland Ave!“
“This is a fun and tasty location. Love the decor and the food and service was awesome. Presentation of food was good and enjoyed the cocktails. We had the Moroccan chicken (not very spicy), Brussels sprouts and the cheese bites. All were fantastic! Definitely will dine and drink here again!Parking: Valet is $20“
“Solid sandwich spot on Marietta st. I had the Apollo 13 and french onion soup and the sandwich soup combo was solid. I would definitely recommend trying this spot at least once if you're in the area. This location is walkable if you're on the Ga Tech campus.“
“Hello fellow #foodiesofatl we want to share our Foodie Friday visit at @fontainesatl in the N. Highlands Area of Atlanta.Let's start off with the vibes. It was low key, the staff was friendly, and the food service was very quick. Speaking of the food we had some positives and some neutrals. Here is what we had:Cajun Rice Balls ❤️❤️❤️These were simply "okay". We wouldn't order them again because there was nothing special about them. We have had tons of great rice balls in Atlanta and this is at the bottom of the list. They were just dull.John's Famous Cold Crab dip with pita points❤️❤️❤️Same as the rice balls, not bad just dull. Would not order again. The pita points were a nice touch though and were warm and soft.NOLA oysters ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Okay, finally something we loved. These were amazing. We will be back for these again and will order no appetizers. We should have ordered this twice lolCatfish Seafood Basket ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Cooked perfectly, not too much breading, hot and crunchy on the outside and soft and yummy on the inside. Came with really good fries with cajun seasoning.Crawfish Tails Basket ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Cooked perfectly, not too much breading, hot and Crispy. This was really awesome!!The oysters and fried seafood were great. The appetizers left much too be desired. We decided if we back we will go straight in for oysters and fried seafood. We will be back for sure for the seafood!!#fontainesoysterhouse#virginiahighlands #t_vfooduniverse2024 #T_vfooduniverse #foodielover #foodbloggersofatlanta #seafoodlovers #seafoodatl #atlbites #atlantaeats #oysters #goodeats404 #atlantablogger #foodiesforlife #atlantarestaurantscene #bestofatlantaeats #foodietakeover #friedseafood #yummyeats #atlantanights #foodscene #bestfriends #atlantaga #atlantalife #atlantablogger #foodhype #foodfinders #foodreels #foodcoma #atlantafridays“
“What An Experience!This was the first time my friends and I came here and I am SO GLAD we did! We enjoyed awesome food, great karaoke and the vibes were on point.I misplaced my phone and the general manger made sure he found me and handed it to me. I live for the moments of genuine humanity. Thank You!!“
“Spacious facility, good beer-drinks and food! I had the spicy pizza, hazy Jane IPA and samples of the Elvis IPA,and this sour which began with a “F”-forgot the name..all the beer is good My waiter Damian was great!! Definitely recommend this spot across from Krog Street Market“
“Absolutely fantastic spot! Creative and delectable dishes at surprisingly affordable prices, and delicious craft cocktails served up in an intimate environment. If I have one complaint, it's their seating policy. They don't take reservations and they don't have a hostess, so when you show up, you're competing with others for the next available table. It's...suboptimal. Nonetheless, definitely worth checking this place out. I'll certainly be back, but probably on a week night to avoid fighting fellow patrons for a table.“
“Went for brunch and arrived a little after 11am. We were seated immediately & greeted by a wonderful & attententive waitress. She made great food recommendations & even informed us of which items contained coconut due to food allergy. The mimosas were delicious as well as the food we ordered. Dj arrived around 12:30 & played a great selection of music. We plan to visit again with more friends.“
“Stopped by Fox Bros. BBQ in Atlanta is renowned for its succulent ribs and flavorful brisket. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, with a perfect balance of smoky flavor and seasoning. As for the brisket, it's beautifully marbled, resulting in melt-in-your-mouth goodness with each bite. Both dishes showcase the restaurant's dedication to traditional BBQ techniques and high-quality ingredients. Overall, a must-visit spot for BBQ enthusiasts in Atlanta. I’ll be back!“
“Me and my sister were visiting Atl and were told to visit this spot. We went on Thursday 3/28 and had a server named Brandi, she was by far the best server I have ever had. Good customer service, very attentive, very pretty, food and drinks were amazing. I got the bang bang shrimp and it was amazing. My sister got the sweet tai chilli wings. Good food, good drinks GREAT SERVICE. If you're visiting ask for Brandi and she will definitely take care of you. We will be back“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Rudy's Righteous Room restaurant and I must say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I stepped in, I knew I was in for a treat.To start with, the drinks were outstanding. The bartender at Rudy's really know their craft. I ordered a cocktail, and it was made with such precision and skill that it tasted like a work of art. The bar was extensive, offering a wide range of options to suit any taste. Whether you prefer classic cocktails or innovative concoctions, Rudy's has got you covered.Moving on to the food, I was blown away by the quality and flavors. The menu boasted an array of mouthwatering options, making it difficult to choose just one so I got several items and each exceeded my expectations.However, what truly set Rudy's apart was the exceptional service. The staff members were attentive, friendly, and made me feel right at home. They were knowledgeable about the menu and provided helpful recommendations. It was evident that they genuinely cared about ensuring a memorable dining experience for their guests.Moreover, I was pleasantly surprised by the management's warm and hospitable demeanor. They took the time to interact with guests, making us feel valued and appreciated. It's rare to come across such genuine and welcoming management in the restaurant industry, and it truly added to the overall ambiance of the place.In conclusion, my experience at Rudy's Righteous Room was nothing short of extraordinary. The combination of great drinks, excellent food, and remarkable service made it a memorable dining experience. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a fantastic meal in a welcoming and inviting atmosphere.“
“2nd time @ 26 Thai Kitchen. Both times… excellent service & delicious food. Very tasty, healthy, flavor & served hot. Our server was Trey & he was wonderful! Will go back again. Also prices are not bad & they take reservations.“
“I came to Maggiano’s specifically for the music, some wine , and an appetizer . When I say the atmosphere was so beautiful. It truly was . I heard some Frank Sinatra , Michael Bible , Ella Fitzgerald. I was just in awe at the sound selection they chose. I thought about putting in an application. lol , but seriously though the bartender was kind she helped me choose my appetizer and dessert . Loved how peaceful it was and how delicious the zucchini bites were . I got a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and honestly liked it . It’s one of my favorite red wines but I never had that Josh Cellar but I truly enjoyed . Also inspired me to go to Napa Valley . 10/10 highly recommend.Parking: Valet available“
“Noisy! Great food! Bring your friends and your money to this one. The only thing missing here is music. There might’ve been some in the background, but it is so noisy that you can’t hear it. The food is absolutely exquisite. Brunch was perfectly cooked. The coffee is to die “
“My wife and I have come here multiple times and it never disappoints. Great food that is full of flavor, great draft beer options, and great portions. Highly recommend the Pho bowls, but you can also just go for classic barbecue sandwich or the new chicken tender sandwich that is truly the best chicken tenders we’ve had in ATL.“
“eight people at our table to celebrate a birthday. Excellent food, drinks, and service. Especially good was the curry chicken, chicken soup, and dumplings. Good old fashion. Expensive. The bar area is very nice. One of the best I have seen. And beware the valet service is $20. Le Colonial gives a $5 discount so price comes down to $15.. Even so, this is the highest valet service fee that I have ever experienced. That aside, we enjoyed a wonder evening.“
“You have to pay to be in the parking garage. 3 hours costs about $20. I have always been able to find a spot and it looks very safe.There are nearby food and drink venues. I think Velvet taco is right across the hall.We sat at the bar which looks long but the seats are spaced so well that it has limited seating. I like the space. The drinks here are delicious. We tried the expresso martini, henessey island, and Georgia Peach on Peachtree. My favorite was Georgia Peach followed by Henessey island. I love drinks that are balanced with taste and spirits.The bathrooms are extremely clean and they have full stalls with the doors going from the floor to the ceiling.You have to register for the games at a kiosk. It costs about $19 for 9 holes. The games are extremely fun. Your golf ball has a chip in it. The system keeps up with strokes and points. There are bonus points at each level.I will return.“
“I love the gender neutral bathroom and the ambiance. I do hate the wait times are so long but overrall it was a nice adult only space. the band was good too but the music should definitely be more inclusive I love rock and live bands but definitely add some funk, hip hop etc“
“Initially we were disappointed at the reduced menu options compared to our last visit and there may be people who wouldn't find choices that they liked. I had two small plates rather than a larger dish. My mussels were really very good and the scallops were even better. The service was excellent. Prices are a bit steep, but I was very happy with my food and with the service.“
“When I say you can eat anything here and be amazed, you would think I am a lier. Why? Because no one is perfect right? Wrong! Ninos could be the best Italian restaurant in the country. Consistent, traditional and precise to the old country.“
“Been going to the local for a long time and it's an Atlanta staple. Always a great experience every time. And the bartenders and staff are friendly and kind, and hilarious? I dunno you guys put a smile on my face when I leave the bar. Y'all should do stand-up or improv.“
“Didn’t get to experience the roof due to the rain. The place was phenomenal chic decorations. Excellent service and the food was off the chain. I had the fried catfish it was seasoned and fried to perfection. Our table tried several of the dinner options everyone was very pleased with their meal. Drinks were fabulous!!!!? A nice change off the beating path“
“My cousins invited me here for brunch while I was in town and it was spot on. The food was savory. The atmosphere was cozy and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our waitress was very attentive to our needs. She was detail-oriented and recommended some great items for us to try. I frequent the area a lot so we will definitely be back.“
“Loved this spot. Came with a pretty big group and managed to eventually find seating. Bartender was hilarious and liked him a lot. Saw a review call it a tikki bar and agree. The entrance is a coffin. Loved the vibes I ordered the Zombie cocktail and it was great! Only found this zombie drink a few places and I was glad that they lived up to their name. Had a great time and definitely will be back!“

“My 8 year old twin boys say it’s the best in the world! Amazing amazing service and value! We are from Florida on vacation and went 2 nights in a row!Parking: It’s in the frontKid-friendliness: The kids ramen meal is beyond spectacular!“
“It was my son's 30th birthday. We came in at about 2:15 yesterday. Our server, I can't get remember her name but she was excellent! She anticipated our needs before we even asked. She was a twenty something you lady. Just a perfect meal and service!“
“First time coming here was a great experience. From the time I walked through the door I was greeted by every staff member which made me feel very welcomed. Walking in and looking around reminded me of the show “cheers”. I also enjoyed the great and rotation selection of local beers and the honest feedback from the bartenders. It seems to be a great neighborhood bar where people from the area frequent. The only recommendation is I wished the had a variety of oyster options and be careful with the horseradish, a little goes a long way but overall great experience and I will be returning.“
“Heads up foodies! The mussels in spicy red sauce is probably the best in the ATL. Add the salmon chips and you have a sharable meal that is hard to beat. The blues band didn't hurt either. What a pleasant surprise, highly recommended.“
“My husband and I went to the Buckhead location to celebrate his birthday and the experience was absolutely amazing. Our waiter Sean was the absolute best he was knowledgeable of the menu and special items being offered and everything he suggested was the best. Our dinner was perfect and the restaurant is now at the top of our list.“
