The Consulate

Met up with friends for a reunion dinner and the service and ambiance was great. The food was great as well - we ended up getting lots of dishes for the table to taste and everything was delicious.

We called to notify the host that we would be late because of the rain and lack of Uber drivers and they accommodated us without problem. When we arrived, we were seated right away in a cozy, blue velvet, plush booth. Our server, Mariah (?) was sweet and explained the current Venezuelan menu and we ordered drinks and 3 tapas. Duck fat potatoes, sweet chili okra and a fried cheese trio. The first course came super fast and it was all delicious. Our cocktails were also soooo yummy. I had a San Matteo Swizzle with fresh pineapple and rum and it was perfect. We continued our order with Ethiopian Lamb Tibs, an Indian red Curry with prawns and the Havana Egg Roll. They were all so good and when put on a plate together, felt like eating Thanksgiving dinner. Total comfort food. Loads of different textures and flavors of sweet and spicy. I bit into a pepper on the Indian dish and it almost did me in. And I love spicy food! We were way too full for dessert so I ordered a coffee and Amarula. It was so good I ordered another.

Overall, this place is perfect. You can eat light or you can eat rich foods. You can really make it an inexpensive night or treat yourself. We did the latter on both parts. We ordered everything that sounded good and loved every bit of it. Every member of the staff was attentive and manager came by several times to deliver drinks and make sure everything was great. We never had to look for a server on a really busy night, which was quite nice. Can’t wait to go back when the menu changes & try all the new stuff!

Great experience!

We enjoyed our first trip to the consulate. Though it was not without some hiccups. We ordered 4 items from the menu (all at the same time) as it is like a tapas style meal. Items came slowly over a 40+min wait. I also ordered a drink which did not come out and i had to inquire about it to receive it. The waiter was quite apologetic and gave the beverage to us half off. Overall we would probably try it again as we enjoyed the space and the meal despite the time issues and ordering issues.

We enjoyed our dinner there immensely. Good recommendations from our server and we liked every dish we ordered. Definitely will come back!

The Service was outstanding as it was the last couple of times I've been here. I come for the atmosphere and service and stay for the food.

Nice atmosphere, great service. Only downside is food portion.

Nice vibe. Good food. Solid drinks. Makes a nice night on the town.

Our third experience with the consulate and each time has been a great experience. We have made it one of our regular restaurants and plan to visit every country they offer.

Always a GREAT experience at The Consulate. The service is impeccable and you cannot go wrong bringing an out of town guest for a wonderful experience at TC.

We had an absolutely fabulous evening. We always love the vibe and setting. Jackson ur wait person made the evening perfect and we have to rave about the Venezuelan menu. The Chinese pork dish on the regular menu was the best we have ever had. there ere four of us so we ordered losts of dishes and made it family style - run don't walk!

The Consulate was a great experience. Loved the decor and feel of the restaurant; however, it was a little too loud and tables too close for personal dining.

The idea behind the menu is fantastically unique and well executed. Portion sizes were adequate for the tapas and great for sharing amongst friends.

The cocktails were slightly underwhelming for the cost — beautifully constructed but limited in flavor.

Overall a great choice for patrons wishing for a unique menu. Looking forward to Greenland!

It was great!

Great menu and drink selections. Food was outstanding and great for ordering many small plates and sharing.

Went to the Consulate for dinner. The menu changes countries every 90 days and the night I went was the first night of Venezuela. The menu was quite interesting with many, many options I would have liked to try and those I did try were delicious. Would recommend and plan to go back to try more dishes during this 90 days

Overall a great experience. Love the James Bond theme and change in menu approach. Will you sharing was fantastic with horrible art from the owners personal collection. Mariah, our server was spot on and took excellent care of us, knew her menu items well and definitely knew her wines. The food was very good, close to excellent but not over the top. Some of the menu items did not fit within the food team which happened to be turkey. I really don’t think there is such a thing as a Cuban sandwich deep fried roll anywhere in turkey especially given the fact it had pork in it. The roasted okra had more of a steamed texture and was served in a bed of sauce that she can to be a combination of soy sauce and Thai chili sauce. A+ for creativity. We will definitely return for the next food theme and would love to attend the global spin party where the next food category is chosen

Great service, awesome food and fun cocktails. What more could you ask for?

Super cool concept with terrific food and cocktails. Highly recommended.

The Consulate is a great restaurant. The menu changes every 90 days to feature a different country or region, while maintaining some standard items. This makes it a different dining experience each time. The staff are knowledgeable and have opinions on the menu items and drinks or wine that pairs. Highly recommend.

Excellent food. Excellent service! We will be back for sure.

Nice ambiance. Menu was sos-so.

The service was horrific. It took 30 minutes for the server to bring our drinks. Our appetizer was late. Later we were told that it was delivered to the wrong table. They arrived 45 minutes after the order. The entry was late because the server did not put it in until we received our appetizer. We arrived at the restaurant at 7 p.m. and did not receive our entry until 8:47 p.m. However, the food was awesome but the service was unacceptable.

I absolutely love the vibe of this restaurant and the premise for the menu is so unique and awesome! Will be brining my husband the next time we are in the ATL as this visit was for a girls weekend!

Always superb! One of our favorite restaurants in the city.

We celebrated our anniversary at the Consulate and had a wonderful time. The rotating menu/cuisine concept is fun and we enjoyed hearing about how they choose the menu. The atmosphere was very cool too and made for a great spot to celebrate our special occasion.

This place is just awesome...every time I am here, it is a unique experience! I love introducing new people to The Consulate!!

Blown away...I’ve been here multiple times. Always good but the Turkish menu was outstanding. Starting with the perfectly flavored and made dumplings to the Kofke to the lamb tenderloin it was a party of flavors. Venturing to the other side of the page the Chinese pork is a must. To top it off, Chris provided exceptional service. Can’t wait to go back and try Venezuela although I wish Turkey would stick around longer. Ciao.

Food was so good. Ordered the very flavorful and tender - not chewy at all - octopus, herbalicious and nutty lamb kofta, tasty and spice laden lamb tib and Havana egg roll (this was ok). Drinks were delicious. Celebrated my husband's birthday here and requested a nice seat where we could take pictures. There are multiple booths for this and our request granted. Service was ok. Server was nice but it seemed they were understaffed that Wednesday evening. Had to haggle our server.

It’s always a great experience. They outfit themselves with consistency...even though their premise is change.

We celebrated a birthday. The restaurant was recommended by a friend. Great food, fantastic drinks, electric atmosphere. I can’t wait to go back. We were also lucky enough to meet the owner. What a great evening!

we loved the concept of the rotating cuisine, and the ability to mix in some of the bestsellers from the Resident Menu. food was spectacular, liked everything we had. expert service, great ambience and surroundings, and a nicely balanced cocktail as well.

This was our first time visiting and this was amazing enjoyed everything the dinner was wonderful...

The Turkish menu was one of the better I've had here. The stuffed eggplant was fantastic, as was the Turkish-styled cocktail I had.

Fabulous everything! Waitress made a great night greater with her recommendations! Everything we ordered was fantastic! Highly recommend this restaurant. Beautiful decor too!

The food was fabulous!!! I would recommend the restaurant and go back again as well.

Great ambiance and beautiful inside with decor. Service was slow but the bartenders and other staff made up for it!

Why cant they get it right...... everytime the service is overwhelmed and it takes a half hour for a drink or service. If you are going to offer craft cocktails.... maybe you need an extra bartender. Service is always slow for just so so food.

This place is outstanding. Amazing atmosphere, comfy seating, and everything we tried was mouth-watering and impeccably prepared. The Cuban egg roll alone is worth a return visit.

This is one of my fav places in ATL. The service, food, and ambiance is amazing. There is even a private room for a more intimate dining experience. It's known for its global cuisine that changes every 90 days. It's a wonderful dining experience and I suggest making a reservation to ensure you're able to get an experience!

Time for the gun display to come down in the bathroom. Consulates are for diplomacy, not espionage. Times have changed; change with them.
