by Ike Enge on Fun times! Not *too* overpriced for the area or the fact that you're on a boat, and a very laid-back, casual atmosphere, especially since there are no waitresses, an open kitchen, and well... you're on a dirty old boat. I would recommend this place for a group of friends looking to get some beer, food, and have a nice view, and would certainly recommend this place for a first or second date... it's cute and romantic without it being fancy and expensive. There's also a ton to talk about, with all the scenery around. Food was good, and didn't take more than 10-15 minutes. Only four stars because the two bartenders working Monday night were really bad.
by Hilario Bareis on One of the weirdest things I have seen- A wannabe wigger, complete with chains and sideways hat, walking a giant fuzzy poodle through the Union Street festival. One of the weirdest places I have ever eaten- Club Waziema. The original destination for dinner was a casually intimate evening at Nopa. There was a quick amendment to the plan when we were told the wait was 45 minutes. A recent crush on Ethiopian cuisine drew us to Wazimea. We had spotted it while in front of Nopa but passed right by it when we were on the same block. This isn't a lowly dive bar? This is the restaurant? What? Gross. It gets worse on the inside. If you've ever walked into a skuzzy dive bar and thought "I wish this place lacking general hygienic standards served ethnic food that may, by nature, lack general hygienic standards" then you're crazy...and you should eat here. After the original dive bar died out in the mid 90's (you can tell by the juke box music), the Ethiopians that moved in didn't bother to change any of the bar décor. Sport posters on the wall, pool table in the back, ratty old sofa, etc. It was like a bad dream where you're stuck in a place you don't want to be in and you don't know how you got there or why you're still there after realizing you don't want to be there. I am definitely not impressed by the ambience. How about the food? I'm neither impressed nor unimpressed. Which is weird considering this is food that began as an idea across the world. I don't eat Ethiopian often so these tastes should be exotic to my palate. Or at least make me want to gag. I can say nothing more than it's solid Ethiopian food. I definitely can't say I had a good meal with the restaurant looking the way it did. Eating doesn't have to be just an experience for your tongue. You eat as much with your eyes as you do with your mouth. I seem to eat with my sense of interior design as much as I do my taste buds and my eyes. That being the case, I'm not eating at Wazimea again.
by Talib K. on The new racial politics in Atlanta are crazy. Much more subtle than in the times of Ella Baker and Stokely Carmichael, but still in your face.....if your eyes are open. Other than the school system, the hospitality industry best reflects this reality. I have been to Strip twice. The first time was during the week in the early evening. The crowd was fairly diverse, but mostly white. Service was great; I was greeted multiple times (at the door, just inside the door, at the bar....). I sat at the bar for a drink and a quick appetizer before catching a movie. The bartender was very accommodating; she gave recommendations and offered samples of some drinks. The second time I went it was a late night on the weekend. The crowd was not diverse, it was 90% plus African American 20-30 somethings. There were no greetings....only herding. I was herded inside by the guys on the velvet rope. Once inside, I was herded out of the walk way by a bouncer. At the bar, I was herded to one of the cheerless bartenders for a sloppily made drink. That night, the staff were not there to serve; they were there to make sure none of the "cattle" crossed the line. I'm not sure which Strip I should refer to for this rating. However, if I were talking about a person exhibiting this kind of behavior, I would refer to them as a "new racist."
