Booked 15 times todayService was fast and excellent and the food was delicious. We ordered grilled street corn, the scallop and lamb dinner entrees and had the peanut butter dessert. Everything was great and food came out fast! Our server, Tyler was awesome and always diligent. We will definitely go back and try their other food! More

The occasion was Mother's Day and Graduation Day. Since we were out-of-town, we were positively surprised by the attention of the waiters and waitresses. The food was a brunch buffet with many familiar items, but also less familiar. The fish and meats were excellent. Everything was fresh and tasty. The room is large, but it was not that noisy. A small band with singer performed hits from the earlier part of the 20th century. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. More

My boyfriend and I met at this restaurant almost 4 years ago and got to celebrate our 1 year anniversary last night. The food was delicious and the service was 10/10 even after we arrived late. It felt so special to be back, and everyone at the restaurant truly went out of their way to accommodate us. Thank to everyone and especially Janel for taking care of us! More

I came to Atlanta for a conference and had heard about the Juke joint so I made reservations. My husband and I thought the band that night was great, the food and drinks were very yummy. I really enjoyed the bacon wrapped shrimp. I also ordered the fried chicken with mac & cheese and the greens. The chicken was very tender and I thought really good. My husband enjoyed his gumbo and he especially liked the smoked wings. Would definitely go again when I make another trip to Atlanta. More

I enjoy going to hard rock and we were there for an event in Velvet Underground. We ate in the cafe before hand and our server disappeared after taking out order to 'do something'. For the price the food should be outstanding and it was 'ok'. Come on hard rock, i know you can do better! Also, in the Velvet Underground we were all given plastic cups, no water refills, just another cup. So much for saving the environment! More

Service and ambiance were excellent. My entrée, bacon wrapped scallops was wonderful. The scallops were huge and so flavorful, just perfect. The appetizer, Crab Rangoon was not great. it may be a personal preference but they tasted like something in them had gone bad. Cocktails were delicious I had a Planters Punch and a Mai Tai. The punch was tastier but the Mai Tai had a real punch! I would go again for the scallops! More

Atlanta natives are hiding some secrets. Their beloved pimiento cheese, the pâté of the South, was invented in New York.[1] Can anyone prove that the first batch of fried green tomatoes was whipped up in Atlanta?[2] There are far more peanuts grown in Georgia than peaches[3], and frying was a West African innovation rather than a Southern one.[2] Traditional favorites still satisfy, but the Atlanta dining scene is enjoying more global influence than ever before. Buford Highway, which runs through the center of town, boasts 20 separate international communities.[4] As a result, you’re just as likely to find snow crab chawanmushi or mughlai paratha on the menu as shrimp and grits or fatback-fried catfish. Whatever you sink your teeth into, it will be served up with homey Southern hospitality.
