PLACE IS TRASH!!!!!!!! Will never come here again. Pretty sure they put water in their liquor. Ordered a Bloody Mary and was the worst one I’ve ever had. She wouldn’t take off the bill bc of “Georgia ordinance”. Poor ownership. Place won’t last.

We had a very nice dinner at Vertigo with friends. Food was fresh and service outstanding. Would definitely go again and would recommend people trying it. Thank you to the staff.

I ordered the Mahi off the menu because it’s one of my favorite meals. I was disappointed the fish didn’t taste fresh it had a rubbery taste and absolutely no seasoning anywhere. I did like the sweet salsa on top. The drinks were strong and overpriced for a small quantity. Any way my server was great. The buffalo dip was good.

The wait staff and manager / owner were very pleasant and friendly. The food was very tasty, good size portions. This is a place I would go back to next time I'm in town.

Food poisoning not fun...really hate that the concept changed. Uniqueness makes you stand out and be a reason to visit. There was nothing unique about the place or the food. Was empty at lunch (*the last time I visited was at lunch, midweek and the place was packed - this was pre-concept change and during pandemic). The menu was mostly sports grill stuff. Nothing grabbed me - why stop making Tacos, literally one of the easiest meals to make and can be pre-made for easy serving...whatever.The beer "menu" was a receipt with beers written on it using a Bic pen. The server was new but VERY polite. She had glasses a septum ring and her hair was lightly dyed, very nice. I ordered a steak burger medium. It arrived pretty medium rare/borderline rare. I assume was the owner asked if it was ok. She offered to remake it. She brought it back minus silverware to eat the zucchini with so I just used my knife just to see if they would notice lol. They dident.Not surprising but that night I got pretty sick. Iv been ill for 2 days. I hadent ate anything else that day so a little food poisoning to cap the experience off. Overall just tremendously disappointed. Last time I ate here I had EASILY one of the most delicious meals Iv ever had. Chicken fingers with jalapeño waffles and honey. It blew my mind. I included a picture of it because I rember posting about how great it was on Facebook. Not sure if new owner or just old owner decided Asian Fusion wasent doing it, but in my opinion. You took a real step back. I'd rather go to Houlihans.GL.

I used to LOVE Vertigo. All of the food was amazing and the decor was great. But the last time I went was an entirely different experience. When we arrived, we were told that there would be a 15 minute wait to take our order, as the cook was behind. In today's world of everyone being short-staffed, this was completely understandable, and I didn't have a problem with this. But when the menus arrived, the entire selection had changed. We were told that the restaurant had a change in management. None of the original items were there (no fusion tacos or wontons!), and none of the selections were the unique "fusion" foods I was accustomed to or expecting. Very disappointing.

We had a fairly large group. I was worried it would be packed but nope it hardly had anyone there. Which was fine. The food is just good, nothing extraordinary. The biggest issue are the size of the drinks for the price. Not really worth it. I had the banana rum drink and it was so packed with ice, hardly any fluid. 9 bucks for that one. The service was slow, but understandable that it was one lady helping us. She did take good care of us and was very nice. I’ve heard a lot about this place and had no idea they rebranded. I wasn’t blown away by any means. It’s just ok but good. There is always room for improvement.

The wings were really good! The food was hot and fresh. The one young lady there was the bartender and server. She was working the front by herself but she did such a wonderful job. She was friendly and really sweet. Prices are comparable. You get a discount if you pay cash.

Their website will have you fully prepared for your vist. The curb appeal is nice its on the corner of 12th. They even have a parking lot next to the building. How wonderfuly convenient. Inside it so nice. Great color combination. Even a cute little table by the window to see the streets of downtown. Now my friend had suggested the Street corn dip. I tried it and there is no way really to explain it except a wonderful fusion of savory goodness. You will not be disappointed. Its a great place to have a meeting or catching up with a friend.The staff was kind and friendly. I will see you all again. You are on my favorite list? The black bean burger is amazing ?

Andrea is amazing and she definitely knows how to please a crowd!!! The whole place and staff was great, they comped a drink that I ordered and didn’t like and replaced it expeditiously! 10/10

Kid-friendliness: They can cater to whatever your child is picky about.

One of my favorite restaurants in the downtown area! I love their new menu especially the buffalo chicken dip! And their drinks are always good!

My wife and I had been going there for three years. I don’t know what happened but it has changed 180 degrees in atmosphere and food quality. The service was great. We went at prime dinner time and the restaurant next door had a wait but we sat right down at vertigo with a total of two tables seated including us, that should have been a sign to leave. The food was mediocre at best. I ordered the mango pineapple salsa and it looked like you just dumped mix fruit from Walmart in a bowl and added chips. It took ten minutes for the kitchen to put out a side of sauce we requested. They painted over the beautiful mural and now the place resembles a sports bar with an identity crisis. Unfortunately we won’t be going back after the drastic change. Hopefully the owner will go back to its original style.

The new ownership has really changed this place. The majority of the reviews were based on the old menu and old food. I used to love this restaurant for the unusual food and atmosphere. The art on the wall was painted over, and the menu has become dull and boring. I’ve never had wings so tasteless. The pineapple jalapeño wings had sauce, but if someone were to blindly give me that wing, I’d assume it was just a naked wing. The server was very nice and I wish I could mention her name, but the food is no longer worth returning for.

Awful.The corn dip or whatever didn’t taste like anything. The grilled cheese su€ked and there prices are a bit high. Unsure how they have the rating they do. Service was good though. Maybe people come for the drinks? I’m not really sure.
