I was really excited to host my graduation party at Temple because I remember it being a huge place with amazing decor. However, while all that may be true, Temple LACKS customer service. We had bottle service and a separate guestlist to accommodate our big group. When we arrived, not only did they have trouble locating our name on the bottle service list, but they weren't even ready to seat us (it was 11:30!) . After being moved once from one room to another, we were seated with our bottle, and our hostess never came back once to check on us. We were also promised that our guestlist would have gotten all of our 25 or so guests in free before midnight. However, there was NO organization at the door, and a lot of our guests had to pay because the people at the front couldn't locate our list or kept mixing it up with the regular guestlist. It seems as if none of the management, bouncers and promoters communicate with each other. This place is probably great to go dancing and drink, but if you are looking for that extra VIP service that ordinarily comes with bottle service, you are better off at SF club that will get you your money's worth like Infusion, Vessel or even Slide. Very disappointed. Never going back.

so i was searching rateclubs to find some good places to eat in ATL since we just moved here and this is one i bookmarked. we had about 45 min. wait, which was understandable for a Friday night. the inside is casual like a fish house should feel. i ordered the shrimp basket with okra and hushpuppies. i have to say the okra was the best part of my meal and my husband agreed with his as well. the shrimp were too small where all you tasted was the crunchy breading. they don't come with cocktail sauce either you have to ask for that, it has some sort of tartar sauce that i didn't care for. for me, it's cocktail sauce only for shrimp with LOTS of horseradish please. the hushpuppies were NOT good. they were soggy and the breading wasn't cornmeal and crunchy like a hushpuppy should be. i expect a good hushpuppy to be dark on the outside & hard and inside thick & bready. these were not that way at all. the atmosphere was lively, we were seated in the bar area so i think it was a bit noisier but that was fine by us. i would say i wouldn't drive here just to go to this place but if we were in the neighborhood i would stop by and try it out again.

The place is just like one of those chain restaurants like El Torito and Don Jose's. BUT, their Chimichangas are really good which will make me come back for more.
