A nice twist on traditional soul food. Seems to be a strong Asian influence with fried rice and housing sauce in the oxtail stew. Overall, we enjoyed the meal. I didn't give the place five stars because the stew was a little too heavy in the housing, making it a bit too think. Also, the furniture needs updating. My 5'11 friend sank down on the chair and liked 5'2.
Can I just say- wow. The ambiance when you walk in is one of elevated welcoming comfort. It is elegant but inviting. This extends to the staff who were all very friendly and attentive. The food was excellent. Of note, the bread sampler was scrumptious; the marinated fried chicken was of course amazing and generous enough for two people to share. Now the real stars of the show: the cocktails are quite possibly the best I've ever had. The care and precision that goes into the crafting of each drink is apparent from the first sip to the last, as if you are drinking a perfectly composed piece of music. I had the delicate and beautiful lotus flower bomb with dinner. Not too sweet, full of light floral essence, and gorgeously complex. My husband's drink was also fantastic and so lovely! We enjoyed these so much that we opted to share a third cocktail in lieu of dessert. I can't remember the name, but it was rich, sweet, and perfectly balanced- a superbly satisfying after-dinner drink. I only wish we lived closer, because we'd be visiting all the time! But we'll definitely go back the next time we're in Atlanta!
Have spent the week in midtown on business and eaten in a number of restaurants around there - this was 2.5 miles away but well worth the cab ride (or the hour walk back). Great service from Nicholas - friendly, personable and efficient - but most of all incredible food; the best I’ve eaten all week by a stretch. This was the first time I’ve been to Atlanta but, if I even came back, without question I’d be back here to eat - fried green tomatoes and Southern marinated fried chicken was amazing. Highly recommend this place!
I was looking for a unique Southern experience and this place did not disappoint. Fabulous service and food. Definitely a must visit while in Atlanta!
