Pierre Dinet: Meat lovers rejoice......have the schweinhaxe here, absolutely fantastic!......I promise......oh ya, stout is magical too!
Virginie Liao: Choco mountain imperial breakfast stout is highly recommended here, chocolatey complex and smooth. Go for the larger size, not 4oz. Try to drink most of it before eating.
Drew Nys: Jemmy stout is the best stout I ever had.
Spenser Holen: Left Hand Milk Stout on tap...mixed with nitro, not c02. Beer done right, pure heaven.
Leonardo Aquino: I want to live in this place! Incredible burgers and a gigantic menu of beers. I tried the Black and Blue burger and the Dragon's Milk stout beer. Both are awesome!
Paula Martinez: Definitely try some of their Draft Concoctions. My favorite is Black Velvet - Eventide Dry Irish Stout mixed with Crispin Hard Apple Cider.

Jennifer Pearson: Dragons Milk Stout!! Yes!! Creme brûlée cheesecake was SO GOOD.
Louise Bradshaw: Absolutely perfect location for pre-show (Fox Theatre) dinner & drinks, with a nice variety on the food menu and far from your typical bar fare. Excellent service too.
Oakland Cemetery: Crave from the Grave: The fish and chips entree is fantastic and is served with their tasty seasoned cajun fries. The fish is battered in Atlanta's own Sweetwater Georgia Brown beer too!

Nubia: Service was amazing from the first moment through the entire night. Everything we tried was a journey of incredible flavor experience for our pallets. We had the lamb ribs, focaccia, oxtails 😋😋

ALESHA BELL: Try the kataifi wrapped shrimp and the pan seared lemon fish with a spice trader cocktail (bourbon, honey & cayenne, apricot liqueur,lime and ginger beer)
Elysia: Great service and delicious food. We ordered the tikka masala and paella.
Paul Gozzo: The service is always excellent and the crowd is great too. For eats, try it all but so far garlic shrimp and tuna tartare have been ridiculously good and the wine is always the right temperature.
