We have enjoyed many meals at the original location in midtown and more recently in Brookhaven - lunch, brunch and dinner. This meal however was made with copious amounts of salt. We could not finish any part of the meal. The Parmesan dip, the chicken tenders, the tarragon checked, the truffle fries and even the wild rice with cranberries were completed drenched in salt. Unfortunately after this experience we will not be back to the vinnings location.

I really want to love this place, but it's a disaster. We made a last minute reservation for brunch. Our 2nd time since it opened. We waited 25 minutes to be recognized and get a water. WATER! The young lady who finally ended up taking care of us was in training. No problem. We're patient and understanding. However, whoever was training her wasn't the right person. We never even saw her until the check was paid. You can't train if you're not properly trained yourself. FYI, the place wasn't even full. This will certainly be the last time we come to this HobNob. We've been to other locations in the city that are excellent!!

Our food was all fairly tasty here. Being a sports venue, it was noisy, as expected. Our server was pleasant but exceedingly slow. Still, we enjoyed our dinner and would come again, especially when watching sports.

Normally the food is fantastic. I go often but recently I was served a sad plate of soggy fish and chips. I've ordered this multiple times in the past and it's always been fantastic. Also, the first few times I ordered this dish as this location, I was served 3 pieces of fish with the dish but the last two times I've only received 2 pieces. More frustrated by the lack of quality than the decrease in quantity.

Food was just ok. I ordered the Nutella French Toast, but it was very soggy. The mimosas were very good!

There was no wait to sit but it took forever to get anything from the waitress. Waitress seemed like she had an attitude from the time she came to our table. Food on the menu is the same as the Atlantic station location but definitely came out prepared differently. When i did finally get my food it was cold… i won’t be back to this location

We were visiting Atlanta from Portland, OR and meeting some family at this joint (that they picked as we were not familiar with the area).The service: The restaurant was not busy at all as we met for an early dinner (5:30pm). We placed our orders (including some drinks), and waited, and waited....and waited. It took them just 40mins to get our drinks out and an additional 30mins to get the food to us. Then they got the wrong burger to my husband so he had to wait another 20mins. to get the right food.The food: The food was ok at best. The portions were generally on the smaller side for the price. I ordered the Reuben and it was mostly bread and cheese as opposed to meat. The burgers were very small and tasted like fast food burgers). The fries were soggy and tasteless.Overall, I do not recommend this place and was very disappointed with the overall experience. I am sure Atlanta has better restaurants to offer. If you are used to amazing service and good food like we are, then steer away from this place.

The food was surprisingly good although it took a long time. They weren't that busy, but it appears that they are way understaffed. The waiter that helped us was great, but he was running all over the place. After an hour, I had to ask them to check on the food since. When it arrived, we had to eat fast because we had somewhere else to be. The saving grace was the waiter being a nice guy and the food being good when it finally arrived.

I've seen this place for a while and finally made the stop in. Good food and good vibes. The fried green tomatoes were really good. I ordered the black bean burger Kentucky style. It was a solid burger, with a good black bean patty. Probably not homemade, but that's okay. They have a good variety of options and everyone at the table enjoyed what they ordered. The presentation of food is on point with the photo game!

Great addition to the Vinings Jubilee. Serves well as a casual date night spot and for Saturday lunch with the kids in tow. Service has been good every time but will admit it was not crowded. It's a big space so hopefully service can handle the rush times.

Food was fine. We had a couple of incorrect items in our order, but they were quickly corrected. The menu is pretty extensive. Nothing to rush back to; the location is one of the best attributes.

The food seems a little over prices for the quality we received. my husband ordered the wagyu burger which actually made him pretty sick. I ordered the Mediterranean chicken sandwich which was fine. The French fries felt like ones I would get with a Wendy's meal and not a $16-$24 dollar meal. We ordered the cheesecake and I am almost certain we could have found a better cheesecake at Publix for significantly less. It tasted old, chemically, and it was chewy. Im not sure we will be returning.. which is a bummer because the atmosphere was nice.

The food here is really good. The issue is the service. I have been here 5 times now and every time there is some issue. It takes a while to get the food. It always takes a while for your server to even first acknowledge you. Servers often act put out for some reason. For some reason, there is always an issue or delay at the host desk, like they can't figure out where to seat you, when the place is half empty. This last time, nobody even came over to the host desk. Not sure I am going to bother returning. It's a shame, because I enjoy the food and the atmosphere is nice.
