Service was really attentive with recommendations, atmosphere was nice.. the food not good: the lobster roll was disrespectful (cold, skimp, and tasteless). Not worth $37. That’s wild.
Can’t say I’d go back if not just for service and perhaps a beer.

This bar used to be a place rooted in good food. Now it feels like a completely different environment — chaotic, unstable, and honestly unsafe at times.
The front-of-house is a disaster. Service is slow, disorganized, and staffed by people who seem more interested in arguing, telling wild stories, or doing drugs. On my last visit, the bartender/manager on duty, Anthony who repeatedly tells guests he “owns this bar” delivered some of the worst service I’ve ever experienced. Long waits, inappropriate behavior, and zero professionalism.
More importantly, the overall atmosphere raises major safety concerns. There’s a clear pattern of erratic behavior behind the bar, I’m not accusing any specific individual of anything — but it’s the kind of environment where you genuinely don’t feel secure leaving your drink unattended.
Several people I came with said the same thing: “This place doesn’t feel safe anymore.” And that’s heartbreaking for a restaurant that once meant so much to me and others.
I can’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a safe or enjoyable night out. Please change this.

Me and my bestie went there after a concert at the Eastern and the waitress that night definitely answered all my questions sweetly and she even made some great suggestions. I chose the Salt and Pepper shrimp. It was Amazing. I have NEVER eaten sautéed onions but theirs were soooo flavorful I actually for the first time ate some and it was cooked perfectly. the ambiance was super chill, like a place to hang with friends and catch up,
The dining room area was dimly light and not too bright while the music was a good jam of songs on the speaker, not too loud which allowed us to really enjoy the food. For a pop up, it wasnt bad. But some additional sides options would be good. So i’ll try again.

I hate to leave a bad review but this was not a good experience. Took 30+ minutes to get our drinks even though our waitress said they were sitting in the server window (which they were not) because we could see her walking back to the bar asking about them multiple times. So it’s weird to just lie about that. She was super short with us the whole time and making excuses.
The first course of food came before our drinks… The food was terrible. Shrimp was fried in with shells and impossible to eat. Chicken dish had no flavor whatsoever and the consistency was gummy and hard to eat. Heard great things about this place but it was just bad all around…

Update: My fave ATL late night dinner spot is BACK!! They closed during COVID and I was afraid they were gone indefinitely. However, I looked them up recently “just cuz” and they are open AGAIN! Looking for a quiet date night spot, from 10pm – 2am, here is your spot! Fresh new menu everyday and the vibe is just right.
Love The Eclectic atmosphere here, I hear that it’s another restaurant during the daytime. I tried the Spanish octopus and was highly satisfied. This place is a bit pricey, but a great late night dinner spot especially if you have a hot date

I came here with a party of 5 of my friends around 5pm and had a great time! Service was quick and accurate (shoutout to our waitress Cindy) the drinks were strong (I got a strawberry mojito with a double shot) the hookah flavors were good and the food was great! Tasty flavorful! Will deff be back!

Great service! Warm ambience (slightly too dark to see your food, but not enough to be truly bothered by it), good food! Tried one of everything on tonight’s menu

We were having a great time until the bartender from last night Friday October 3rd hurled racist language at us. Unnecessary and disgusting treatment over race. Just awful and shameful. You cant exist as a business with employees being closed minded and biased. Please patronize other businesses over this one because there’s no room for hate speech in my world.

In short: Go early, with friends that are patient/chill.
Seems to be suffocating from understaffing, much like every other restaurant in Georgia (facing wave after wave of people wanting to go outside). So I’m emphasizing the patience required.
Tacos were to die for. Wish I knew I should have ordered more but given the extremely high quality, my self righteous standards were exceeded, despite long wait times. Strong first impression.

I had the worse oysters I’ve ever tasted in my life here. We had very good oysters here a few months ago, which is why we came back. We found out that the chef has a revolving menu, so what was available last week may not be available this week. We sent the oysters back because they tasted so nasty. They do not provide, horseradish, cocktail sauce, or Tabasco. Then I ordered a 36$ Lobster roll that was not worth the money. The atmosphere was cool tho and there is outside seating. We decided that we will not be returning ever.
