Food was good , music was a bit loud but good, price was good, service needed a little improvement the wait staff seemed confused and guest waited longer that usual for acknowledgment. We had someone else's food come to our table 3 separate times.

Very good service. Food was good but I am not sure about for the price. Valentine's Day had a Live saxophone player who was fantastic but it could barely hear my date sitting right across from me.

Both entrees were not good. Very little chicken in chicken and dumplings. Ceasar salad not fresh. Good service but poor food- especially for the $$.

My group experience was good. It wasn't great, for our group of 6 we were at the restaurant for New Years dinner. The staff were very friendly, but delivery of the food was slow. I had the salmon, which was well prepared. Some of the other dishes were small in volume. The bar drinks were just ok, almost more fruit juice with a hint of alcohol.

Everything was great, but we had fruit flies flying around us throughout dinner. Food was excellent, service good. Just bummed about the fruit flies.

Horrible experience drove over an hour paid for parking and only to find our the restaurant is closed for a private event!! The server was so rude and was didn't care.
Dale
The whole experience was great. The food was outstanding. Our bartender was great, friendly and done a great job explaining the food and specials. Very good experience and would recommend to anyone in Midtown Atlanta.

Wonderful for brunch and drinks! Please know this restaurant and bar is tucked away in the Kimpton Shane Hotel. It is quite lovely but the parking is a bit pricey. About $14 for 2 hours and $22 for 2.5+ hours.
I was here for a brunch hosted by the Yelp Elite program. This place is great to host your next private event or dine with people. They served us an incredible spread of food. We had: oysters, shrimp, an omlette station, fruits, salad, French toast, crawfish salad sliders, grits, egg bites, overnight oats, etc. Everything was prepared/cooked to perfection and delicious. The bartenders were also working hard to serve up delicious drinks. I had the Rose Colored Glasses and it was exceptional - especially if you like gin.
The patio was the star of the show after the food. They decorated it with stunning flower atriums around the tables. It was a perfect day to sit out there and marvel at the sunshine. It was such a gorgeous and relaxing environment for a Sunday afternoon. It felt like there was no better place in Atlanta to be.
The staff went above and beyond to create a pleasant experience for us to enjoy. The Shane is where you need to go for your next time dining out or to catch drinks. This is one of the few places that are worth the value in Atlanta.

Great service, but food quality was just OK. If you plan to attend brunch, please go after 11 am. Whereas most brunches have both breakfast and lunch options available the entire time, Hartley doesn't bring out the brunch items (which are the best) until 11 am.
The menu and pictures online oversell the experience. It is at beat a hotel food spot. Not necessarily a restaurant. The food was very bland no flavor (much like hospital cafeteria food) very disappointing. Maybe this venue gets better for dinner but Lunch is not it!

I ate here first and foremost because I was a guest of the hotel and I needed an easy dinner. I was the only person in the restaurant and that gave me some apprehension, but my dinner was absolutely fantastic. Ordered the veal meatloaf which was incredibly delicious. It sat atop buttery mashed potatoes and truly perfectly cooked broccolini. A nice gravy tied it altogether. If this place was in my hometown I would be a regular for that dish alone. Zero notes.

Could not find the place. No neighboring establishments were familiar with it. The listed phone number did not work

We had a bit of a mixed experience at The Hartley. The ambiance was lovely, and our server, Rori, was fantastic and attentive. The fries were absolutely delicious, but unfortunately, the steak was inedible. The restaurant did make up for it by comping the steak and offering dessert, which we appreciated. Also, note that only valet parking is validated, so we ended up paying $10 for self-parking. Overall, we’re giving it three stars.

We grabbed dinner before a show. Food was well prepared and seasoned well. Nothing fancy. Prices were high, but not unexpected for the convenience of eating where we stayed and in downtown ATL. Service was so warm and accommodating. We'd pay the prices every time for the ease, convenience and quality.
