This is a really nice restaurant. The food and service is phenomenal. The only downside is that both times that I have gone to the buffet, they always run out of Grilled Salmon for good before I can get any. They are cut in small little cubes and I can’t understand why it’s always the salmon that they can’t replenish. Super disheartening when you don’t eat pork, beef or chicken. For $60 pp they should be able to get someone to run to a grocery store real quick. Sheeshhh Other than that, I’d recommend.

Last night was our first time ever going up to the roof at Ponce and dining at 9 mile. My stepsons were in town and it was everyone’s first time ever going to Atlanta and I wanted to give them the best experience and you guys hit it out of the park. I’m trying to recall our servers name. She was wonderful and very accommodating, super sweet and it was only her second day and she did amazing. Me and my husband are definitely coming back for date night when we get a chance.
