   Food was good however, service could have been better. We waited for a while before a server came over and took our order.

   Cute place with a nice atmosphere. Service was very good. Unfortunately, the food did not match the quality of the service and the surroundings. Everything was a bit overdone and the overall flavors were just ho-hum. Although portion sizes were generous, I felt like I paid too much for the mediocre food.

   It's always pleasant outside on the deck (a bit noisy inside, which we avoid). And we look forward to seeing Sonia as our server.

   No bad comments. Last Saturday night was perfect for outdoor dining and our party of 3 were impressed with the service from the receptionist to our shared dessert. Two of us had the shrimp & grits, and felt that the price was a bit too high; but it was tasty. Bread pudding was OK but lacked any rum flavor. Cider availability was limited to 1 selection, which was not as good as Angry Orchard.

   We saw Scout up on the hill during a previous trip to Decatur and made a special trip from Midtown to give it a try. The menu is a mishmash of farm to table, southern and Mexican infused dishes. Unfortunately, Scout does not do any of them well. We tried three starters and all disappointed. The mole chicken wings were dry and flavorless, the beet salad was swimming in vinaigrette and the watermelon gazpacho was warm watermelon juice with aggressive Tajin seasoning. The mains were not much better. The Dover sole was wrapped in pepperoni slices, which when cooked made the dish aggressively salty and it was served on top of a bland cream sauce containing bits of corn and roasted mushrooms. The waitress recommended the side of mushrooms which were also mushy and tasteless. On the positive side, the restaurant itself is very charming with a lovely outdoor patio. The wine list is extensive and features many great options by the glass. The staff was courteous and friendly, but disappeared for long periods and never refilled our water glasses. The place was 2/3 empty at 8:30pm on a Saturday evening which says a lot. It is a charming spot. We hope they find a new chef with a thoughtful menu soon.

    2nd time visiting. Service is impeccable. Took care of all our needs. Relaxing environment. Brussel sprouts as appetizer are amazing. We enjoyed the pork belly. And the pasta with burrata. All the dishes were outstanding.

    All the dishes the servers walked to other customers looked good. It gets loud inside the restaurant. I should have opted to sit outside as it was such a nice day. Good food and great service. I will return.

    This was my first time and the food was excellent! I highly recommend the Steak Frites. Others at the table enjoyed the grouper, snapper, and falafel. The Hot Pretzel app was a hit as well. I loved the space and atmosphere. My only complaint is that service was slow at the beginning. It took a while for us to have our drink and food orders taken. However, they did seem to be understaffed and I know this is common in the restaurant industry post-Covid. Nonetheless, our server was very nice and friendly. Our group was not in any rush so it wasn’t a big deal. We would definitely go back and will recommend to others!

    Went for dinner and ordered the Bavarian pretzel which was excellent. The problem was more with the burgers and fries we ordered, which were both much too salty and slightly overcooked as well as the one of the buns being burnt. The truffle fries were good, but sweet potato fries were nothing special

    Scout does the most wonderful Easter brunch! This was the second year we’ve chosen Scout for Easter brunch and it was absolutely perfect! The kids buffet is so nice and my kids loved everything! It gave me plenty of time to enjoy my favorites off of the regular menu!

    Scout is a restaurant worth a visit for those who like unique, interesting settings for a dining experience. It is located in the original Scottish-Rite Hospital in Atlanta, (Decatur) and the building is filled with windows and high ceilings and is spacious. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and promptly seated. The service was good to excellent. The food was sometimes excellent, sometimes mediocre. In our group of four a majority were happy with the entree selections. The starter pretzel was a huge hit. This was a surprise to us -- a good surprise. We devoured it, complete with the delicious mustard served with it. We also got deviled eggs which were good. One got the snapper and it was a disappointment, mainily because it was overcooked and very tough. This is an entree that needs more finesse (or maybe we just got it on an off night). The entree salad with shrimp was excellent, as were the chicken wraps. Overeall, it was a good enough experience to draw us back for another experience.

    We don't get here nearly enough. The first time they had a beef stroganoff that cannot be beat. My last visit i got the Phoenix II Electric Boogaloo, as did my old man. That was probably six weeks ago and he won't stop talking about it. Almost took him right back there for the last special occasion.

    The new catfish sandwich was disappointing. The fish filets just slid out of the fried batter crust which was weird. And two filets on one bun was impossible to eat with hands. Our beet salad with grilled chicken was okay, but nothing special. No bread was offered. Cocktails were excellent.

    I liked scout overall. it was a good restaurant the price point is a little high, but I really enjoyed the homey feel that the place had. It was good and I don't know if I would go there again but I had a lot of fun. Service was good but could have been better for the price point. I walked in and I got no greeting or anything and I stood for like 5 minutes to get served. It was good and I had a fun time.

    Our waitress was attentive and professional. However, she quickly served our salads and appetizer together. In hind sight, she probably was rushing us. Our food included: Brussels sprouts app- Excellent Arugula Beet Salad - a heaping pile of arugula and a chunk of cheese. The description author took more time in writing about the dish than the person who prepared the salad. Would not recommend Shrimp and Grits- smothered In bbq sauce. Would not recommend Steak frites adequate but no memorable flavor. Our reservation was at 8:00 pm. Around 9:00 pm the waitstaff flicked and increased the lights, began cleaning around us then proceeded to stack chairs on the tables. Obviously they wanted us to leave. This behavior is really unprofessional. If the staff didn’t want to work after 9:00 they should remove reservation options after 7:00. The 2 star rating is generous.
