by Tenisha Couto on Went here for the Dandy Warhols listening party on Cinco De Mayo, Pretty sweet place. Great art on the walls, stiff drinks, Guinness! The band playing was Los Murderachis,,, and they kicked ass.... think mariachi music with a rockabilly twist. The new Dandy Cd was good, and the free margaritas were strong. Bes of all my crush since 7th grade Zia, (the keyboardist for the dandy's) was spinning. I couldn't get up the nerve to talk to her...... edit... upon further introspection... this place only get 3 stars
by Becky R. on Went last night to Highlands in the rain. This was my first time coming here and I had heard of the lines, but didn't believe it til I saw it. I still don't fully comprehend the line policy. From what I saw there were 4 lines. I *think* one was VIP, guest list, people waiting to prove they're on the guest list, and people not on the guest list. We got there right at 10 and due to some non-compliant bouncers we ended up shafting about 30 people in line making it to the front. Basically all those people weren't really in line, even though they thought they were. The bouncer never told them to stand behind the rope. My friend asked him where the line was for the guest list and he pointed to the empty rope, hence, we were first. We had to wait a good while before getting a ticket to proceed to the next line, but at least that one had better rain coverage. I still don't get the ticket thing. There were blue tickets and orange tickets. I'm thinking one is for VIP and one is for the guest list or maybe one is for ugly and one is for cute aka cheap ticket vs. expensive ticket. He, by the way, didn't even check for our names on the guest list. We waited in the second line a while lounger, but at least this line advanced faster. The bouncers are all jerks, acting like they're big shots who control the universe. As soon as we got in I rushed to the bathroom, which was nice and clean. Then I rushed for my first drink, a gin and tonic made with Sapphire. It was good, but not worth $10. I should have pounded a few before I entered, although with my wait in the line I would've sobered up by the time I entered the club. The music was okay. They took it back and played a variety of hip hop, trance, and rock. Everything from Snoop Dogg to Nirvana, sweet. Ladies beware, the guys here are on the prowl. They basically stand around for a while eyeballing some girl and then pounce on you. The crowd was very diverse and good looking. I only saw a couple of people on the floor who needed a room. My second drink was a dirty Sapphire, $11. Again, not worth it, but tasty. This bartender gave my friend a cup of water, and later when she went to another bar for water the bartender claimed they don't have water, only bottled water, which is about $4, so watch out for their trickery. The go-go dancers were good looking as they should be, but they weren't very good dancers. In summary, you have to go at least once just to see what all the hype is about. With all the complaints about this club I'm not sure how its still in business? Oh yah, lots of tourists! But what else would you expect from a club in the middle of one of the biggest tourist destinations? And probably most importantly, don't forget to get your parking ticket validated or you'll be kicking yourself as you exit the parking after shoveling $10 more dollars to end the night sober.
by Blake B. on I'm not a big fan of fast food (mainly because I used to be a big big fatboy and now think like an avoider of such grease) but I were I'd eat at Varsity a lot. I guess that means I should rate it higher, but really, this isn't a place you should be going that often. It be's bad for you. The experience as a whole, though, is something everyone who lives in Atlanta (or visits for an extended period) should go through once. It's definitely a taste of Southern flavor, from the shouting folks that take your order to the bums who will accost you both coming in and out for change. If I could only eat here one more time I'd get a cheeseburger and onion rings and a loaded chili dog, with a Frosted Orange to drink. The Frosted Orange is probably the main reason I'd ever go back having been already: it's a nice thick Orange shake you can suck and make your brain cold. It is a nice thing to taste. If you're going to do fast food, here's where to do it. But don't expect too much from the people that fawn over it as a landmark. Why are Atlanta's landmarks always so honky? The Big Chicken?
