by Suk Romig on I definitely left here happy even if the contents of my wallet was a little more lonely. I made a reservation here and declined to pay the extra charge to sit in the ship. However, when we got there (and perhaps a little late) they upgraded us for free. The staff was nothing but amazing. So friendly, funny, and helpful. I was a fondue virgin and they helped me through it well. They had many different dishes to choose from and they were all great. I tried some of the cheese/crouton/apple dish, and the rest of the time I had the beef plate.Very good, but due to the price I'll keep as a once-in-a-while special occasion thing. Also, the jazz band was lovely. Great atmosphere.
by Starla Sartorelli on Wow, I thought I had already reviewed this place since I've been here a million times! I remember the first few times I went here, the club was sparsely occupied and the music seemed like it was playing top 40 from an iPod hooked up to their sound system. Now, it's bumpin' every weekend with a line not only ouside the doors, but one that winds all the way down stairs to the main lobby. They revamped this place with real DJs that mix music and videos on the spot, hot go-go dancers, local photographers that capture the see-and-be-seen crowd, and tons more security to match the big crowd. The security can be a big buzz-kill sometimes, they won't let u dance on the dance floor with a drink in your hand and they'll escort you out if they think you look a little too drunk (even if you're not causing problems), but when a wench throws her drink at your boyfriend for no reason, they do nothing.... Amnesia's been fun for a while, but I don't know whether it's because I've been going there a lot, or that they've just become a little too haughty for my taste... but I would like to try new venues in the D other than Amnesia.
by Joey R. on WOW so I found the worst Mexican food in Atlanta hands down. Living within a mile of Atlantic Station I have been eager to actually find a place that serves good food inside Atlantic Station but that has yet to happen. I kind of ignored some negative reviews I read on rateclubs and we ventured to Rosa Mexicano anyway. So our dining experience started off around a 5 and then everything went horribly wrong. I ordered a side of plantains and they were terrific. Then I ordered some strange chicken enchilada item that had some stupid name that no one could ever pronounce and didn't even seem very Mexican but who am I to say being I was in Monterrey, Mexicolast month but hey, I am pumped on the dish before it comes so far. I get it and it tastes like some strange lemon chicken thing that is far from perfect. So I bail on my dinner plate and move towards the tortilla's which are DISGUSTING. How do you call yourself a Mexican place with bad tortilla's, bad beans, AND bad rice. I think we are still okay and they have salvaged around 2 stars at this point until I have a conversation with our waitress. So I kindly ask her where the bathroom is and she cannot tell me in an around the corner fashion. She is like well it's behind the flying man waterfall blah blah but be careful because their are pictures on the door and the girl one is a woman but she kinda looks like a man so it could be confusing. Just when your walking straight make sure you walk into the door to the left. So I am feeling pretty intimidated here waiting to experience the horrible feeling of walking into the women's bathroom but it never happened. For starters they have letters on the door that are M and W but clearly letter recognition was a little over my head? And the female picture is the famous Frida Kahlo, like come on!? All in all the food sucked but it wasn't the worst stuff I have ever had. Where they manage to lose the last star was this stupid experience cost $64 (for 2 people)! I am going to stick with La Fonda. Sorry for the drawn out description here but yea, Atlantic Station is clearly good for movies and not food. I give up!
by anonymous on I used to go the the club many years ago when it was fun. A few years back, I brought some out of town friends there for a night out and I was so embarrassed. There were people humping the floor and it was all hip hop. I went back a few months ago because they I heard that they remodeled and it was dead as a graveyard on a Saturday night and they were still playing the annoying hip hop. Hmmmm - maybe remodel the music and they will come.
