    We had a wonderful lunch with our nephew visiting from Chicago. Our server Rodney was very attentive. As usual great service. I can’t stop ordering their shrimp and grits. The best in town.

    This is a very charming restaurant when you walk in. Hostess was lovely that sat us took about five minutes to see a server. I believe we were her first table of the night. Our server didn’t seem like she was having the best night we got her to smile or laugh a couple of times However, when it came to taking our order, I don’t know if she just didn’t hear we ordered mussels. We didn’t get them however we ordered their muffins, which are outstanding. Just need to come with a little bit more butter. When we asked about the specials she read them off to us, which was great one of the guest got the special the chicken special, not very much chicken in it. It was with pasta the pasta however, was outstanding. We ordered a filet medium rare. It came out, medium well for 50 bucks you’re not gonna eat a medium well steak when you want medium rare so we sent that back and it came out rare the next go around which was better than medium well However what surprise me was the lack of apology from the server. The restaurant was not that crowded for the kitchen to be in the weeds for the filet to take that long to cook a MR filet. We sat without water for a while waiting for our server and then we had to ask for it mean while she was up at the hostess stand chit chatting. I had the Salmon which was great the broccolini was ice cold and frankly I wonder if even cooked. All and all to many other restaurants to try to go back to this one.

    I cannot say enough about this awesome dining experience. We had a wonderful lunch and will definitely be back. It was a girls' day in the city and we decided to try By George. I believe my husband and I will be back next weekend for dinner! We loved every single aspect of the meal (lunch).

    The restaurant is beautiful and very inviting. My family and I had brunch on a Sunday morning. Rodney was our waiter — and I cannot say enough great things about him and his service. Rodney made some wonderful recommendations (shrimp and grits as well as the chicken and sweet potato waffle). The food was spectacular as my children enjoyed the chicken and waffles and my wife and I enjoyed the shrimp and grits. This was easily one of the best restaurant experiences we’ve had in our travels and definitely the best in Atlanta.

    I ordered a ribeye steak but they sent out a NY steak. When I brought it to the server and managers attention, they told me it was a ribeye and did nothing to resolve the mistake. It was a nice NY, but I ordered (and wanted) a ribeye. Poor customer service.
