    Food, service, and atmosphere was great. My only complaints were that my wife and I went to celebrate our anniversary and nothing was said even though I let it be known before arriving. Also, the restaurant was not rotating and that was one of the bigger reason we went.

    I went on a Monday night, so keep in mind it was not busy at all. My experience overall, however, was spectacular. My server was great and the food was fantastic. The harissa rubbed swordfish is worth the price. I also loved the bread plate with the truffle butter. The views and the experience is the clear centerpiece of this restaurant, and it doesn’t disappoint. From the elevator ride up (that dimmed at night so I could see the skyline better) to the 360 view with interactive displays to explain what I’m seeing, the whole experience was great. Definitely recommend!

    My family dined at the Sundial on December 3, 2023. We were celebrating my mother’s birthday. Almost everything went amazingly well. We had a great server(Jeff), lovely food, and amazing ambiance. However, when we paid and were leaving to go take pictures, on the observatory level, we decided to take the elevator up there. We didn’t know The elevator would take us down to the main level where you’re greeted with the person that asks for your reservation. My partner was trying to explain to the man that we had just dined in and we were simply trying to take pictures on the observatory level. The employee’s demeanor was quite unbothered by what my partner was trying to tell him. His attitude was quite rude in handling the situation. The employee rudely asked my partner if we wanted him to call the manager. I guess he thought he was in the right with how he was treating us thinking the manager would say no. In the end, the manager told him over the phone to let us back up since we had a reservation to begin with. Your incompetent employee truly could have handled that a lot better. I never write bad reviews but this was my mom’s 60th birthday and we wanted her to have a great night at your awesome restaurant. I recommend hiring people that knows how to talk to people better. Again, our server(Jeff) was great! The food and atmosphere phenomenal. Unfortunately, the man checking people in doesn’t hold value to your restaurant. Thank you to the manager on duty who let us back up.

    This night was an anniversary and I saw on there photos on Google maps that they do custom messages on plates. I decided to do that but did not receive it even though I put the message in special request on here. I thought they would have done it because from the beginning they said “Happy Anniversary” and I would assume everything that was written in the special request will be done. Unfortunately nothing in the special request was given to us. I believe the fault was at the server and the restaurant for not communicating and also the establishment was not that busy so they could have done what I asked for in the special request.

    The experience was excellent. But they gave away my reservation and the phone number provided no one ever answered. The waiter was excellent and delightful. I was calling repeatedly, and there was no answer. It was tough to get in and reserve another time slot. Answering the phones and giving away reservations is the only bad things that happened

    Food was mediocre considering the hefty price. If you are expecting extremely tasteful food in comparison to the price do not come here as the food is very over priced for the lack of flavor. I will say that the service was outstanding as our waiter was very attentive. The view is also splendid. But the food was very much comparable to your local chain steakhouse.

    I returned to this restaurant since my first visit almost 15yrs ago and while everything was just “ok” at best, it just didn’t have the same top notch service and food quality from before. The decor is outdated and the floor no longer rotates to provide the view around the Atlanta skyline. Overall, it was good for nostalgia but not sure there was anything special enough for me to return for.

    The view and experience was awesome! Too bad it doesnt revolve around anymore but you can still walk around and see the whole 360 view of ATL. We came at Thanksgiving dinner so service was kinda slow. Food is good, my filet of beef was a good size maybe 8oz and properly cooked, lobster bisque was good, the lobster pieces in the mac n cheese were not so fresh tasting though, but it was still good! Pricey a little bit but it was a thanksgiving 5 course meal so well have to try it on a regular day. Overall it was an awesome night and experience.

    We have been going here every year for last few years on Thanksgiving or Xmas day. Today will be our last time here. The waiter we got was the worst that I have ever experienced. It seemed from the very beginning that he was not interested in serving. We asked him to take a picture and he refused by saying he is loaded with work. For three people the bill for the fixed 5 course meal with drink was about $555, including a 18% automatic tips. The waiter forgot to bring the third course, which was supposed to be a sorbet before the main course. When I asked him what happened to that course, he shrugged his shoulder and mentioned “I forgot. What do I do? It is too busy” Well, it was not too busy. And moreover that should not be the approach to communicate after missing a course (and we were still charged for it). I did mention our experience to the manager and she thanked for the feedback. However, did not even mention to adjust the meal for missing a course for a fixed price 5 course meal. For such service tips should have been 0% rather than a mandatory 18%. Just a pathetic experience.

    Excellent food. Birthday dinner for my girlfriend. Everything was great up until the end. Our waiter was professional until the very end as we were leaving. I believe his name was James. After paying over $250 for the food, we expected gratuity to be taken off the top considering that's what the restaurant has in place. However, that was not the case upon receiving the bill. We gave the waiter what we could. Had the gratuity been taken off the top like it's been advertised, his service would not have been called into question. After seeing how much we left him, be became very rude insisting we leave and refusing to answer our questions calling us rude for how much we left him. That aside, the food was excellent, I recommend it to whoever visits. Meat was tender, mashed potatoes fresh, and I also recommend their frozen drinks. Ambience is definitely a plus as well. Very romantic. All together I give it a 3/5. Had service remained professional throughout the experience it wouldn't been a solid 4/5.

    Sadly this restaurant has declined significantly post COVID. The food was average at best, yet still charging high prices. View is spectacular but for the cost, plenty of much better places in Atlanta. Real shame as this used to be one of our favorite spots. This place needs an injection of cash or new ownership to get restart and use Polaris as a great example of what’s possible.
