by Maynard Vaci on Literally the best meal I've ever eaten. (It helped that the company was great, too - my lovely wife and I were celebrating our anniversary.) We were in Atlanta from California, visiting family, and wanted a special dinner out to celebrate. Woodfire Grill was recommended to us since we're some of "those" people, enjoying local, slow food when we can get it. From the complimentary valet parking upon arrival to the French press coffee served after desert, Woodfire exceeded expectations at every turn. We chose the 7 course chef's tasting menu since it included a few off-menu courses. (The 5 course tasting is all directly from the menu, according to the wait staff.) We started with a fennel salad with citrus. The second course was a scallop so tender it practically melted in my mouth. The third course was my favorite: warm endive in a cream sauce topped with black trumpet and chanterelle mushrooms. Crunchy bread crumbs on top were a great texture contrast. I was ready to stop the meal at this point and just leave. I was in heaven. We left the veggies behind and moved on to meat with courses 4 - 6 being quail, Berkshire pork and lamb. Each was perfectly prepared and paired with a small side of locally raised vegetables. The pork was amazing. This is how pork is supposed to taste! The broccoli and farro paired with the pork loin was a standout. A small "pre-dessert", literally just a square of devils food cake, transitioned us to the main dessert of marscapone cheesecake with a chocolate crust. The dessert was the weakest of the courses, it was a bit too cold and hard. It would have been a shining star on most menus but when surrounded by perfection even the smallest blemish stands out. I'm really stingy when it comes to 5 star reviews but there was no doubt from the first bite that Woodfire would be at the top. If there were a 6th star to hand out they would get it, too.
by Dante Frison on "Kind of" pretentious atmosphere, so called lounge. Overpriced drinks. If you want a table & a place to sit it's $30 per person, oh wait im not done yet its $30 per person for every 2 hours. If there's any tables available, you have to reserve or be on the waitlist. Diverse crowd, but felt like there was more white and asians. The so called dance club downstairs is literally a dark cave, when I say dark I mean DARK. It's small, crowded, they have a small bar downstairs, the only ac/ventilation you get are two fans on each side of the wall and the dj kind of sucked that night.
by Nick C. on Anyone self-proclaiming to be the "greatest" (sports stars, actors, or in this case bars) usually are not the greatest at all. In fact, quite the opposite. Rude staff who wouldn't switch the TV to several customers requested games, expensive beer w/ a limited selection served in plastic cups. Server did us a "huge favor" finding "one of the two glasses the bar owns".
