by Jon T. on Came here for the lounge at night and i guess there was some sort of event going on so it was crazy asian night! all the security guys were these scrawny asian guys with wannabe Men in black ear pieces who think they're hard stuff. Honestly besides one guy who was super chill and nice the rest were all douchebags, honestly you give a few guys who can't get anywhere in life a tiny bit of power and they blow it out of proportion, can you say overcompensation much? IF ANY OF YOU WANNA BE THUGS ARE READING THIS, GET A REALITY CHECK, YOU AIN'T SH*T! end rant sorry overall the venue was REALLY NICE, bar was decorative and place overall was a very good looking place. The night i went literally... everyone was asian.. (which is fine since I am asian as well) but honestly it's a bit weird when you hear people yelling mandarin/cantonese at each other across the dance floor (and no i'm not being racist at all, like I said I am chinese) it was just weird and annoying. The music was pretty good, more of a top 40s mix which was great, but the crowd really just wasn't all that great, i think this place has the potential to be great,, maybe i was just here on the wrong night?
by David P. on This is a pretty happening place although I don't think I was the intended demographic. There were actually a variety of people there and I had a great time. Drinks price are out the roof though. That may have something to do with the fact the bar upstairs has no roof at all. It's a great area to sit and absorb a close up of the Atlanta skyline. I liked. Good dancing if you're into that sort of thing but other than a couple Ludacris songs, I had never heard anything they were playing. Three Miller Lites = $17.50, ouch.
by Maurine Kloberdanz on You cannot miss this wonderful place! If you are like me and appreciate nostalgia and great deals, this is the place to go. The minute I walked through the doors, I fell in love! The decor looks like you will find Potsie and The Fonz sitting at the table next to you. (Richie would be there, but he's too busy being a famous director :) Anyway, it's a true 50's style restaurant, with photos of Marilyn Monroe, classic cars and movie memorabilia. The menu is filled with favorites like Italian beef and sausage, pizza, spaghetti and salads. There are great prices (under $4) for kid's meals and special discounts for seniors. When I went, the special of the day was a chicken/rib combo. I got 2 pieces of fried chicken, a half slab of ribs, waffle fries, cole slaw and a biscuit. Are you ready for the price? $6.95!! The ribs were some of the best I have ever eaten, juicy and tender with almost no fat. There is a bar, big screen televisions and some great music. The people who work here are friendly, down to earth and work hard to please. (The location is on a side street, but basically it's a few blocks west of River Road, between Lawrence and Montrose). Enjoy yourself and tell Potsie I said hello!
