50 Best Cocktail Bars near Smyrna

“This place is special y'all. The vibe is friendly and cool, and whatever you order, you are going to leave saying it was the best you've ever had. French toast, cornbread muffins, fish and grits... You cannot go wrong here. Bring your friends and support this hidden gem.“

“We went in dubious of authenticity. NOT DISAPPOINTED! We sat at the bar and ZOYA took GREAT care of us. Food was as as good as Arizona where we came from. Fresh tortillas and some heat to my carnitas. Great salsa as well. Thanks!!!😊“

“This neighborhood treasure in Smyrna Village is a great afternoon experience. The variety of bourbons, vodka, tequila etc is amazing. So many choices. Not sure what you want, the master mixologist will help you choose the beverage that will suit your taste. There is indoor and outdoor seating. This is also a cigar bar. If you are looking for a smoke-free experience, there is outside seating or you can go into their smoke-free area. Their sister wine store is just up the walk way. If you want the best of both worlds, sit at one place and enjoy the fruits of all. It is an amazing experience. If you have never tried a smoked drink, the display is a show within itself. Make your way to have a fun afternoon or evening as a date night or just hanging with friends.“

“The service was top notch and the food was good. I love the healthy, low carb options on the sides menu. Also love that healthy options are available on the kids menu. We will be back.“

“Got to do something about the chairs. Every time someone moves a chair it's like running nails on a chalkboard. Tonight was our 3rd visit, can't fault anything but the chairs screeching.“

“Quentin and Bryan were so nice and offered really good recommendations. The calamari, crispy rice tuna, and chicken sando were delicious. The drinks were also 10/10 and I’ll be coming back to try more. Really good energy and nice ambiance.“

“Great tacos, even better empanadas, and superb margaritas!!! Cute lil spot on the beltline and had fun at Beyonce trivia night!!“

“We visited The Red Phone Booth on 6/15 while in town for my cousin’s graduation. What no one knew was that I had just placed my mom on hospice and we had lost a cousin the same day—her sister and my mom’s baby sister were with us. Even in the middle of all that pain, we were shown such kindness. Sophia was amazing, and I even played pool with a member who didn’t know I could barely hold a cue. We didn’t look like what we were going through—but that night gave us joy we truly needed. Thank you for a beautiful experience. We’ll be back. ❤️“

“Donte was fantastic! If you are looking for a great fun and chill bar in the area with decent prices with good vibes this the place to go! I had a rum and Coke and my husband had an AMAZING espresso martini! Definitely try this spot if you’re in the area.“

“My wife and I stopped by the Third door on Saturday May 7th. It’s a very cool place and the band was great. The hostess told us about the nominal cover charge and that they have table service for drinks. We sat down with a couple my wife knew and waited for a server. 15 minutes in and no server in sight? My wife goes to the bar to order and was told to wait for a server. OK, 10 minutes later here she comes. Takes our simple order and again we wait, and wait. 10 minutes later we are served. I don’t understand what would take so long. Every other venue at the square is very attentive. I would have spent $75-$100 on drinks but never got the chance. I’ll go back one more time but if it’s the same experience, never again.“

“Excellent cocktails, great for hosting events. Quickly serve your guest without the wait of making each cocktail and the quality is the same if not better than a bartender could make.“

“First time visiting Roshambo. This place is like the ultimate neighborhood restaurant. The food is of exceptional quality and the service was great. Ambience is warm and very inviting. We sat at the bar and I felt like the attention was exactly what we expected. We had the disco tots and I would recommend those to anyone. Truly a good comfort food. My wife enjoyed the fish tacos, and I had the cioppino and both were perfect. Finished off with the crème brûlée, which was spectacular. This is going on our list of regular hots for the future. Highly recommend!“

“Food, Cocktails Bartenders and cool DJs“

“We sat on the terrace and while the view was lovely, it was a chilly night and the short space heaters just didn't do the trick. We all thought the more common taller heating elements would have worked better. The steak and sauces were tasty and the frites were divine. That said, don't think I need to go back.“

“Scott is the best! We sat at the bar for the Harry Potter pop-up and had the BEST time! Thanks for the magic, Scott! ✨“

“Visited Friday for the first time and had a great night. Mocktails were delicious. The atmosphere was fun but still mature and relaxing. The service was exemplary. Woman dj had a vibe set.. heads bobbing and shoulders swaying all night long. Highly recommend & definitely plan to return.“

“OMG Please try the pineapple cake ice cream!!!! It blew my mind as a Taiwanese. Wherever you’re from, you’ll love the taste of the pastry-like pineapple ice cream. Very creative!!! Take your date here for a sweet treat!☺️☺️And the service is 💯💯💯💯💯“

“The manager Samuel was very personable.The servers were polite and patient.The ambiance set the mood along with the music and the food.If there was another private event or dinner is being offered, I'd love to come.Especially if Samuel has any part of it.“

“Lantana has always been my go-to spot, especially because of Wendy. The service is consistently great, the food is always delicious, and the drinks are a perfect 10 out of 10. I’ve been coming here for years, so I was a little disappointed not to see Wendy this time. I actually decided not to stay because, honestly, I’m not familiar with the other staff.

I really hope Wendy is back soon, she even knows my daughter’s favorite drink, a Shirley Temple with extra cherries. You just can’t beat that level of service. Hope to see you soon, Wendy!“

“We went for the Mother's Day brunch. The food was absolutely delicious! Having the jazz band and flower bar were excellent additions to the meal. I don't like breakfast food or eat meat other than fish. There were plenty of varieties of scrumptious dishes for me to choose from. I will be returning!“

“Pictures don't lie . The food 🥘 right here is 10/10 . Great ambience lovely customer friendly staff and everything you deserve on a decent date night. Every bite speaks volume and the owners are just amazing people . I will be back again and again . I am a restaurant owner myself and if I tell you the food is good then it's good .“

“Love love love this spot! Highly recommend. Sue and Randal are so welcoming and fun to be around. It’s a nice little walking distance from the botanical garden too so if you wanna have a beautiful day and then end your night with some fun people definitely come to Oscars!“

“Great spot to come and hang out and smoke hookah

“Perfect Latin fusion fair with creative dishes. Yummy starters include ceviche with passion fruit sauce, empanadas, guacamole and sautéed scallops. Excellent main dishes halibut, herb crusted lamp chops and filet. Healthy options available for vegetarians too! Great salads. Servers and fire dancers were an added bonus because they were fun and very friendly/helpful. (Managers could be friendlier.) Overall restaurant ambiance beautiful and eclectic. $25 fee for bringing our own birthday cake a bit ridiculous! Parking convenient $4 Parking fee expected but offers convenience to customers. Our total experience for party of 8 was amazing!“

“As a Persian, I can confidently say the food and desserts were excellent and very authentic. Everything tasted just like home. Our waitress was incredibly helpful and attentive—she took the time to explain the menu and answer questions, even though we were already familiar with the dishes. Great food and great service. Highly recommend.“

“We were originally headed to another restaurant but decided to stop here instead—and we’re so glad we did! The food was excellent, and the service was outstanding. The young man who took care of us did an amazing job and made the experience even better.“

“privileged to join a private tasting and I have been nothing but excited about the upcoming opening of Sebastian! Their time is A+ and this will be one of the most in-demand restaurants in the city! cant wait“

“OMG! After receiving exceptional service during our stay, I am convinced that the W in the W Hotel stands for Walter :o) From the time we arrived until the moment we left Walter greeted us with a welcome smile and the utmost hospitality. Rest assured, when we return to Atlanta this W Hotel is where we will stay! Of course no one succeeds alone and Lexus was a beautiful compliment to Walter's cheerful demeanor. Thank you both very much for the warm reception :o) - The Weiss Family“

“Dining at Atlas in Atlanta was, without a doubt, the most extraordinary culinary experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been to several Michelin-starred restaurants, but nothing has compared to this. What made this evening so unforgettable wasn’t just the masterfully crafted dishes (which were phenomenal), but the people who brought the experience to life. Chef Money and his incredible team, including Maxwell, Julian, and many others, showed a level of hospitality and genuine kindness that I have never encountered in fine dining. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel not just welcome, but truly cared for. And the food. Every single bite was absolutely unforgettable. Each dish was a perfect blend of artistry, flavor, and emotion. You could feel the heart behind every plate. From the first amuse to the final bite of dessert, I found myself completely immersed in the flavors. Every course built upon the last, creating a seamless, delicious journey I didn’t want to end. This wasn’t just a dinner. It was a beautifully orchestrated experience filled with warmth, creativity, and connection. Chef Money and his team have created something truly special at Atlas. I left feeling full, grateful, and honestly in awe of what I had just experienced. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough. I cannot wait to return.“

“Tabby was in town and in usual Tabby flow she was exploring the atlasobscura website and came across The Consulate. As such, we decided to go. We had reservations for 06:15 on a Friday. Arriving about 20 minutes early as traffic happened to be light, we were able to be seated early without any issues. Upon entering the restaurant the hallway decor captures your attention as you focus on the selected hues of blue and artwork placement. Upon being seated we were immediately greeted by Cindy. Cindy arrived all smiles coupled with a huge personality and warm welcome. As this was our first time she took a moment to explain to us the menu selections, geographical inspiration, as well as answer the few questions we had about select items. Cindy’s education of the menu and experience with the foods added to the food deciding experience. Major shout out to Cindy. The ambiance of the restaurant is high energy, captivating and explorative. As you look around the restaurant it puts you in the mindset of being inside one of the classic true to theme castles in an Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider movie. LoL! At any moment Laura Croft could walk in and grab one of the items on display and head out for her next mission. LoL! I decided on the String Beans with a side of Mexican Rice and I was more than satisfied with the flavor profile of my meal. The string beans were flavor stacked with the slight sweet from the sauce and the spice from the peppers. The texture was spot on for a true sautéed experience as well as the portion was perfect… The Mexican rice paired well with the string beans as it provided a texture variation as well as it was seasoned well but not overpowering in comparison to the string beans. This was truly a 10/10 experience. The service, the environment, and the food were all superb. Whether for a personal 2 person dinner or after work friend vibe, The Consulate is truly a must try for any occasion.“

“Everything we had was delicious, particularly the guacamole and chicken enchiladas! We'll be back soon!“

“Best ramen I've had in Atlanta. Very comfortable and quiet spot, highly recommended 🍜“

“One of a kind hospitality and vibe.“

“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.“

“The dim lights, light music, beautiful architecture, wonderful wait staff, and the food is one of a kind! Cooked to perfection and not one second overcooked… we enjoyed our waitress Amanda! Very accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu. Will be back many times in the future!!“

“Es un restaurante muy bello el servicio a mejora y la comida se porta a la altura ambiente agradable“

“The only day club in Atlanta. Amazing food!“

“July 05, 2025 Greetings, This evening, I had the opportunity to celebrate my 40th birthday, and to mark the occasion, my partner and I chose to dine at a fine dining establishment in downtown Atlanta. Regrettably, after we visited your downtown Atlanta location, it became clear that my hope for an outstanding dining experience was unlikely to be met. Upon our arrival, we had to wait despite having made a reservation several hours earlier. Eventually, we were seated at a table no larger than a nightstand. I immediately observed that, unlike the other tables, the candle on ours was unlit. This should have served as an indication of the service to follow. Once seated, we were presented with the menu and asked for two sweet teas. Soon after, we placed our orders. After waiting twenty minutes, we realized that our drinks had been forgotten. We subsequently reminded our waitress that we had ordered two sweet iced teas. After an additional ten minutes, our drinks arrived. Fifteen minutes later, our food finally arrived. Upon its arrival, I noticed a sticky substance around the $75 steak I had ordered. After considerable effort to cut into it, I tasted the meat and found it to be overcooked—its flavor reminiscent of a meal unintentionally left on the grill by an intoxicated cook. It was unsatisfactory, and I requested a remake. At this point, we had spent over an hour at your restaurant, and the staff began cleaning up. Finally, around 12:05 a.m., the re-cooked steak was brought out. Although it was an improvement over the first, it still did not merit the price of $75. Given that my potatoes were cold and the minimal ice in my refilled iced tea had melted, I opted to forgo the steak altogether. My partner, who is more willing to accept mediocre service, encouraged me to take the steak back to the hotel, which led us to request a to-go box. Ten minutes later, we received a small cardboard box, barely big enough for my food. Further, we were not offered anything to carry the sauce in, utensils, or even a bag. Shortly after, we received our bill, which totaled approximately $195.00, excluding gratuity. At that moment, I was overwhelmed with emotion and informed my partner that I needed a few minutes outside to collect my thoughts. I found it challenging to rationalize $200 for a meal arguably valued at $20 and customer service worth $10. Despite my objections, my partner insisted on refraining from discussing this matter with a manager. He wanted to avoid any conflict on my birthday. While I appreciate his noble intentions, I possess a strong aversion to inequality in any form. The treatment we received in an establishment that professes luxury and exemplary customer service was inadequate and perhaps a sign of your treatment towards Minority LGBT customers. We deserved a better experience. Although my birthday weekend was great, this experience was horrible. I am genuinely disappointed with my visit to your Atlanta location. I would have had a more satisfying experience at a more casual establishment, such as Texas Roadhouse, for a fraction of the costû. Sincerely, Gregory A. Reid Jr. Brandon F. Williams“

“Great food great staff!!!!)“

“Amazing staff and fabulous food and beverage options. Thank you for hosting us! Looking for a place to host a birthday gathering, team outing, or event. They have options for you.“

“First time and it's a dope overall vibe. Awesome staff. And they throw napkins at 2:00 a.m.“

“Great service. Food was amazing, with nicely size portions. The atmosphere was nice, and elegant. I will be returning!“

“So much fun! With the best service to the decor this place did not miss … and they validate your garage parking Special shoutout to The manager Savannah who was soooo friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Along with Sidney our bartender Noe our server 10/10 Must check out!“

“Great time celebrating Dia de los Muertos 💀“

“My wife and I frequently have dinner at Kaiser's as the service is always great (Tommy was our server this time) and everything on the menu is fantastic. Chef Kaiser's creativity and choices always taste great. We eat out a lot and this is in our top 2 or 3 favorite restaurants in the entire metro Atlanta area.“

“Beer was good, but on 10/04 I took a hefty fall when one of their patio chairs gave out beneath me. I experienced the darkest ego death of my life. The chair buckled like it knew I deserved it. Waitresses were super kind and kept checking on me seriously, 10/10 for empathy. Very scary. RIP my dignity.“

“A Truly Enjoyable Experience! ​I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and I must say it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. ​The food was absolutely delicious. Every dish arrived perfectly prepared and beautifully presented, and it's clear the kitchen takes pride in its work. ​Beyond the meal itself, the service was truly exceptional. Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable without being intrusive, ensuring we had everything we needed exactly when we needed it. ​The atmosphere was another highlight. It has a wonderfully "chill" viberelaxed, comfortable, and perfect for unwinding. It created a great background for conversation without being too loud or hectic. ​Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great meal paired with excellent service and a superb, relaxed environment!“
