by Judy B. on The good points - the to-your-order balls, the friendly waitress. The bad - the music screens, the peppers on the quesadillas. My grandson likes it, so I'll be back. Oh, and the website http://www.300austin.com doesn't have Austin as one of the selectable locations. What's up with that?
by Maude Ramones on I don't like this venue as I've only been here once in my life for my Meetups which there was no cover fee. Since I've only been to this venue only once it gave me a very bad taste when "first impressions last." The bands they elist to perform does not get the audience to interact. Guests were not dancing to the bands' performance or were they interested. The drinks are extremely over-priced. All drinks are served in plastic cups. The coat check for the winter/autumn months is approx. $7.00 which is a complete rip-off. I would not bother giving any tip for that ridiculously expensive coat check fee. This venue is over-rated despite of it's long history, glamour, and numerous large dance hall rooms. The VIP is indeed a segregation from non-VIP guests. The Taj Lounge in the Gramercy-Flatiron is a much BETTER venue for clubbing despite of the smaller size as their coat check is reasonable $3.00.
by Jeanette I. on Some people's reviews indicate they were expecting a fine dining experience, and were disappointed to discover The Varsity isn't a Michelin-level establishment with breathtaking culinary creations and white linen tablecloths. Others seem disgusted to realize that it isn't a health food restaurant. Guess what?? The Varsity is a FAST FOOD restaurant! The world's largest drive-in restaurant! They aren't going for gourmet or healthy. Nothing's fancy. They serve greasy food, YES, that is their specialty and, might I add, their APPEAL. They are fast but the workers aren't going for the friendly customer-service award. Their disregard is part of the charm, in a way. Here's how it works: -The smell hits you when you walk in the door, making your salivary glands start to pump rapidly and your stomach start to growl. -You wait in a short or very long line (depending on when you go) -You step up to order when the rather uncaring worker behind the counter calls out "Whaddya have, whaddya have?" to you. You order some combination of chili dogs (they have mustard on top) or other hot dogs, or hamburgers (you'll probably need at least 2 hot dogs and/or hamburgers, they aren't large), scrumptious french fries with the peel on them, flaky onion rings, a drink and/or an FO (maybe a chocolate shake for variety if you go there often), and a fried pie. -You pay, and take your food on a tray and go find a place to sit down. The building is a behemoth, there are tons of places to sit. -You eat, thoroughly enjoying every greasy bite. It's yummy junk food. Enjoy, and don't feel guilty. Tomorrow you can eat a salad. I have to tell you, if I went there and ordered a plain ol' burger, or something weird like a chicken sandwich or tuna sandwich, and a soft drink, I'd leave thinking, "That wasn't very good." Well, take it on many people's recommendations, you're supposed to order the chili dog and FO, and it's supposed to be unhealthy. If you can't handle greasy food, or dislike the plain atmosphere, then by all means there are plenty of nice, upscale restaurants in Atlanta, go there instead! With the proper expectations and mental preparation you are well on your way to discovering a fun and delicious place to eat.
