by Sharise C. on Fun place on a Saturday night with plenty of cheap garage parking or FREE valet. How's that for a switch? We arrived around 11:30 and had a short wait, maybe 15 minutes. Headed straight for the back bar as someone's review suggested and got a drink right away as opposed to crowding in at the main center bar. Room was already fairly crowded with a pretty good mixture of ages, races and male-to-female ratio. I hate to resort to comparing it to Halo but it's hard not to. For my buck, T&G has much better music and I like that the on-screen videos are the actual songs being played whereas at Halo, it's just a mish mash of unrelated visuals. The music is also a better blend here; at least in the front-of-house. The "official" dance floor in the back room spins a different blend of music (same artists usually but not in the same order) so you kind of get a more trendy vibe out front and a fun, grittier vibe in the back. I wasn't really thrilled with the DJ in the back when I arrived but I understand the guy before him was better, sorry I missed it. But, that said, it's where I had the most fun dancing and stayed until closing time. My only issue with the place was some drink pricing inconsistency. My husband and I ordered drinks at the same bar from the same bartender. He ordered his first and then I did mine. The bartender didn't know we were together (something we sometimes do intentionally). The very same drink (Texas Margarita) cost my husband $7 and me $8. So I said to the guy, did you just make that price up? He says with an attempt at a chuckle, "nah, we can't just make up prices..." Yeah right! Then he says, the next one will be $7, I let let it go and joked back, at least it's getting cheaper. OK, now, my second Texas from the same bar (different bartender) was $10, WTF? I asked him about this and he said some b.s. about the computer pricing out 1800 Silver at $10. I enjoyed keeping my tip on this one. I could see if I wanted Patron but hello, 1800 is 1800. My husband's second was still $7!! So, maybe they charge guys more up-front to get in and compensate by charging less for drinks and vice versa for women. Anyway, great place for fun and I want to go check out some of the other nights, just gotta figure out what's going on with the whole drink pricing scheme.
by Bryon Lorimer on I don't know what all the hype is about with this place but it's WHACK! I get that this is probably the hottest club right now, but it just sucked ass! It was obvious we went on the wrong night! (We were here this past Labor Day weekend on Saturday) Here are the reasons why I hated this place: (1) It was 97.8% girls (I felt like I was a lesbian club) (2) It's HELLA SMALL! I really thought there was a back room (3) Set-up is HORRIBLE - You can't really dance, no correction, there is NO dancefloor. Plus who sets it up where you have tables in the middle of the room? Really, it blocks the entire flow of things! (4) The only way you can truly enjoy the place is if you get a bottle service. Now that I think about it, that's all you can do... I guess on the flip side, we only had to wait 5 minutes to get in. We were rolling 6 (HOT) girls deep! =)
by Tad Lattimer on Six Feet Under has THE BEST CHEESEBURGER IN ATLANTA. There is really nothing that compares. I definitely think it's better than the Vortex for sure. I love coming here because I can get raw oysters, a kick-ass bloody mary, fried green tomatoes, a cold beer and clam chowder. Everything I've tried here is great. I haven't been to the new place, but I can't wait to see how it is. Love this place!
