by Denise H. on Going for there for dinner tonight for the guacamole and the pomegranate margaritas! Everything was really good the last time I went for lunch. Not too crowded, good service, clean and clean restrooms. It's a bit high, price wise, but that's Atlanta Station - they have to make a profit to pay the rent!
by Lindsay C. on I must admit after reading all the reviews about this place I was SCARED to go. Of course some friends wanted to get together for some drinks and "dancing". I wasn't up for paying $10-$20 to get into a sports bar, so I made sure to get there around 10pm so I wouldn't have to pay. First Impression: YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING right?? There were about a dozen people there. I gave the place the benefit of the doubt considering is was rather early. As the night went on the place became jam-packed with wannabe women with their asses and boobs hanging out ( I mean come on "ladies" this isn't Vegas, WHO are you trying to impress?) and douche-like guys who just stand there and gawk like they've NEVER been in room full of women. Not very mixed as far as ethnicity. Can we have a little diversity PLEASE!!?? The patio ( where everyone was smoking) is SUPER small. There were so many people out there it had to be in violation of a fire code. I can say that the drinks that we had were good, pretty strong unlike a lot of other places. Our waitress was really attentive and sweet. But then again she was getting tipped constantly due to the fact that most of my friends are drunks. The only reason why I gave it 2 stars was because I had a GREAT time with the people that I was with, or was it because of all the alcohol that was consumed?? Suggestion: Get there BEFORE 10:00 PM, DO NOT, DO NOT PAY to get into this place. You WILL be pissed off at yourself for have to pay to get into a BAR, NOT a club.
by Tammie Start on Can't really say much about this place because I was there for a magazine release party back in January. Music was dope, but it was a hot blues singer by the name of Acantha doing a live performance and Gilles Peterson and Nossa were on the decks, and I doubt any of them are going to be regular fixtures here anytime soon. Drinks were cheap, but it was an open bar. Crowd was cool, but that probably has more to do with the magazine than the venue, so who knows if any of those people will be back during a "regular" night. However, what I CAN say about the place is that the space is nice, although I think I'm getting a little tired of the whole nondescript-facade-in-a-crappy-looking-but-actuall y-gentrified-neighborhood-leading-to-a-surprisingl y-nice-interior schtick. It's big enough for a live performance, but small enough to feel intimate. The front is reminiscent of somebody's Victorian parlor with a bar, and the back is like an old-fashioned theater, laid out just as didi s described. As a venue, it's got a lot of potential, but it will depend on the strength of its entertainment booking to live up to it. Definitely a place to keep your eye on for the moment, though. Three stars for now, and worth revisiting later.
