   We had an amazing experience. The service was fast and efficient, plus the staff is very attentive. The food was great. Our server Vassil was outstanding. We went for my girlfriends birthday and the ambiance was perfect-intimate and calm. Would definitely recommend.

   Really wanted to go here. The feeling wasn't 5 star and had to leave. Waitress didn't know the menu and told us to read it. No description. We were celebrating 2 birthdays and were ready to Spend $700 plus. The experience was so not what we were expecting, we all voted to walk out. Ended up just going to a Ted's and had a blast.b We decided to schedule our birthday dinner for the next weekend.

   I will start by saying that the ambience of this establishment was very good, the decor and sound of soft music playing in the background was a nice touch. Although we enjoyed the overall look of the restaurant the food was not up the par nor worth the price. You’re basically forced to pick between the 3 course of the four course. The selection of dishes are very minimum and not very appealing for the price point. My wife and I are well traveled and local foodies so we were very disappointed with the mediocrity of the appetizers, as well as the main entrée selection and deserts. The entrée was probably the best tasting selection. We had the deserts they were very mediocre as well and I just feel overall it was not worth the price that we paid. We left still hungry and very disappointed. The service was great, and like I said the atmosphere was good as well. I just think they need to come up with a better menu besides, forcing customers to select between a three course or four course meal.

   Upon being seated, we asked if we could have a seat closer to the window side of the table. The response we were given in return was, “Well, thats not where your table setting is.” We stated we didnt mind sliding our plating over and were given a displeasing stare as if sliding our plates over to the other side of the table was an inconvenience to our server. Our server’s attitude was poor and gave off an “I’m over this job” ambience which set the tone for the rest of the dinner. Dinner was okay.

    Highly recommend a visit here. Food and service was above and beyond. We were greeted immediately after coming off the elevator. Every server and hostess knew it was my wife’s birthday. If you’re looking for sky views, great food and service, this should be your first stop.

    I have lived in the Atlanta area for 35 years and I *finally* got around to eating at the landmark restaurant. My husband and I were attending Dragon Con and decided to have at least one nice dinner while we were downtown anyway. K, so the restaurant is lovely, the hostess was friendly, our server Vasily was personable, helpful and made us feel like we must surely know him from somewhere. He was just the right mix of deference and confidence. All the food was gorgeous and SO tasty, the new chef is an artist and we told Vasily as much. Yes, it is very expensive but we felt the entire experience was worth it. The only thing I had any issue with was the process of getting the reservation. I started back in January of this year trying to set it up because reservations are very scarce during Dragon Con. I did this via Open Table. All I could get was that the restaurant was not accepting reservations and that if I added my name to the list I would be notified when I might do so. So I added my name. And as the months went by, I kept checking, no dice. Finally, a couple weeks before the Con, I called the restaurant and was told that all the reservations were full. I tried to explain that I had been trying for months to make a reservation but was immediately and rudely interrupted by the woman I was talking to and told that the Con days are blocked off, but did not tell me how one is to make a reservation because you have to have it to eat there. Weird. We went back to the website were able to get a table the day before the blocked off dates however, and had a lovely time.

    They did not accommodate my seat preference even though I made it with my reservation, and they seated a couple who showed up 40 min late to their reservation in the type of seat we requested (close to the window). Other than that, our server Cindy was excellent!

    It could be a special place. But the interior with the decoration is too „cold“. As well, we received a table near the window but the windows are very dirty. The room was so cold due to the AC… The service was good but not really professional. Overall, a medium experience.

    Nikolai used to serve a little more portions for the money. New York strip only 2 cube cut pieces of meat and for my lady one piece of duck meat. Almost $300. Let’s not talk about the small portions for appetizers and dessert. Pay more and get less.

    Amazing experience for first timers or people new to atlanta. Great for anniversaries or birthdays. Portions were a tad bit small but I suppose that’s what higher end fine dining consists of. The waitress we had was very kind and professional. I really loved how she went above & beyond for us on my birthday. The only issue was actually getting on the 28th floor because you need a key to get up there & the only elevator that would take us up there was being serviced. We had to go through the kitchen after asking the front desk staff for help.

    The former Nikolai's Roof was one of a kind. The current iteration is lacking. My hunch is the pandemic caused a full rebrand, but clearly they have yet to find their stride. My wife and I were there to celebrate our 25th anniversary, and left more than disappointed... The signage to get up to the 28th floor was poor, meaning we walked around (with others who were trying to find it as well) and took several elevators before we arrived. There was no host/ess greeting us when we came in, so we had to look around and wave down a server who eventually greeted and seated us. The server was nice, but Applebees average, the food selection (prix fixe) was good, but execution was average (overcooked vegetables and steak), the wine list is decent but it looks like a 6th grader typed it out in Times New Roman in MS word, and the only Cab served by the glass is Columbia Crest (REALLY?!), the decor feels 1980s. To boot, it was the most expensive meal my wife and I have ever paid for. My former experience with NR was one of the most memorable meals in my entire life. The food, experience, wait staff, etc... were all world class. And while the price tag matched the experience, we didn't feel like it was unjustified. This experience, however, was the exact opposite. I would've rather dined at Houstons, had a better experience, and saved several hundred dollars. The sad part is, there is sooo much potential to this space. The legacy is legendary, the views are unmatched, and the potential audience (Hilton guests) is enormous. With a sharp owner and management, this could be revived. But it needs help fast.

    Arrive early as you have to navigate the elevators to the restaurant. Ask the hotel personnel which elevator to use from the bottom floor. We parked our vehicle, got into the hotel and waited for an elevator, but only some go to the restaurant. Don't get on the wrong one. We thought the express elevator would take us up, but you need a hotel key to work the elevator. Went up to the 28th floor, then had to take another elevator to the restaurant. The rest of the experience was great! Scott, our waiter explained the courses to us, the food was excellent and the wine great! Small portions, but that is expected from a French restaurant. I'd go back again!!
