Beautiful aquarium with a great variety of creatures to visit! The lighting was really nice! We had a great time. Especially enjoyed the interactive activities. I appreciated the water fountain in the aquarium. The bathrooms were really clean as well. Souvenir store needs some improvement to get more revenue. Need to reserve sea lion and dolphin shows well in advance! We didn’t know and didn’t get to see them.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Experience! The Georgia Aquarium is incredible! The exhibits are beautifully done, and the marine life is just stunning. The Ocean Voyager tunnel with the whale sharks and manta rays is a must-see — truly breathtaking. The dolphin and sea lion shows were super fun and well put together. Everything was clean, well-organized, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. It’s a great spot for families, couples, or anyone who loves the ocean. Highly recommend spending a few hours here — you won’t be disappointed! 🌊🐠

We had a great day at the Georgia Aquarium. Staff were friendly and the place was spotless. The dolphin show was a blast, and I wish we had time for the sea lion show as well. My favorite part was standing in front of the huge Ocean Voyager window and watching the whale sharks and manta rays glide by. The tunnel and that massive viewing window make it feel like you are inside the tank. The shark exhibit was another highlight. Parking is paid in the deck next door, which makes sense downtown, just plan for it. Food is on the pricey side, so consider eating before or after. My only gripe is the layout, which felt a little awkward, but once you settle in it is easy to lose track of time in front of the big tank. Tip if you go: reserve seats for the dolphin show and arrive a little early so you are not rushing. I would absolutely go back. It is surprisingly relaxing to stand at that main window and let everything else fade out.

Georgia Aquarium is the best aquarium in the country. There are so many areas to explore, learn, and to be amazed at oceanic life. The shows are spectacular, engaging, and phenomenal. The tanks are massive and inspiring. There are so many undersea creatures to see in every tank. It’s truly amazing to watch the fish, sharks, anemones, and all the rest co-existing. There are beluga whales, giant turtles, otters, penguins, jellyfish, and so many more species. The performances are all top-notch. You get to be entertained while you learn about oceanography, marine biology, and other scientific topics. We splurged on the backstage tour option and it was magical. We met a few performers, got to hold some of the props, and learned even more about the amazing animals in the aquarium. We suggest at least two days to truly explore and appreciate the grandeur of Georgia Aquarium. It’s a huge, sprawling campus dedicated to education and awe-inspiration, as well as raising awareness about our oceanic friends. Everyone should visit at least once.

Definitely a great experience! Don’t miss the Dolphin and Sea Lion presentations - especially the Dolphin show, which was absolutely captivating. The presentation is entertaining, engaging, and beautifully showcases the Dolphins in an intuitive way. Beyond that, you’ll get to see a wide variety of marine life from around the world. The aquarium is well-maintained and easy to navigate, making the visit enjoyable for all ages.

Well kept and safe. We visited during a weekday afternoon and found affordable parking just a few blocks away. I do not recommend visiting this area with young children after dark unless you are well escorted. Inside the aquarium you'll find first class accommodations for guests. As you would expect, this is a wonderland for young children to learn more about marine life and explore another part of our planet that might not otherwise be available to them any other way. The aquarium can be fully explored in just one day and in only a few hours if you aren't attending any of the special programs that are offered in addition to the general admission. The venue provides clean restrooms and a cafe area to take a nutrition break or just to sip a beverage and catch your breath. The kids were having a blast and there are hands-on areas as well as many walk through opportunities that allow little ones to crawl through caves for a fun and personal experience made specially for the little tykes. The gift shop is quite expensive, but if you're well funded and looking for a pleasing way to support the aquarium, I'm pretty sure that you'll find quality gifts to share with the members of your family during your visit. Across from the Aquarium is the World of Coca-Cola nostalgia museum, giving those who still have leftover stores of energy and want to move on to the next venue a chance for additional exploration time.

Definitely big enough to make a day out of it. Kids love getting to see so many fish from so many angles. There is places to buy food too making it nice not having to go somewhere to eat then come back. Kids love getting to touch the stingray. Highly recommend going .

The World of Coca-Cola was a fun experience overall, though definitely more about the brand than the history behind it. There’s a little bit of nostalgia and storytelling sprinkled in, but most of it feels like one big advertisement — which, to be fair, is kind of what you expect when visiting the home of Coke. My favorite part was easily the picture scanners that morph your face into vintage Coca-Cola ads — such a clever and entertaining touch that makes for great keepsakes. The soda tasting room, on the other hand, was a bit too crowded to really enjoy. It’s fun in theory, but hard to savor the experience when you’re shoulder-to-shoulder with people. Still, it’s worth a visit if you’re in Atlanta and want a lighthearted, bubbly stop full of photo ops and brand nostalgia. Also please note you can find a cheaper ticket if you purchase from a third party.

A fun visit overall! The exhibits were engaging, and the atmosphere was lively and well-curated. The Coke tasting room was definitely the highlight—it felt like the most interactive and entertaining part of the experience. That said, most of the foreign soda options weren’t very good to our taste, but it was still fun to try them all. Great for families or anyone curious about the brand’s global reach. Worth checking out at least once!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit! There were many exhibits and things to see. We especially liked being able to taste all the different flavors from around the world. On the downside, there were several from here in the states. I mean, I guess when you're visiting from another country here, it'd be nice, but just something we noticed. My daughter's favorite was from Germany. My favorite was from Thailand. If you know when you plan to go, save yourself a few bucks and purchase tickets on the site.

They make you sit through two terrible movies, the first time just to enter into the place, really didn't add anything to the experience. You just had to stand around for 6 minutes to wait to go in. Then you sat there for 6 minutes and hoped it ended. The movie looks like it was filmed on a go camera tied to a Jack Russell, it was so jumpy and you were so close up it was making me ill ( motion sickness) same with the vault video, pictures racing around your head, then tadah!!! You get to see the vault with the only written copy of the recipe (they don't actually use any more) Not much on the history just wall space. I did like saying some of the old advertisements they had on the walls before you went in to see the first movie. You basically pay $20 per person to taste and drink all the soda you can handle. Gives shaps a lot of expensive t-shirts and some other Coca-Cola stuff, the shirts on sale and you can get souvenir t-shirts anywhere from $15 to $40 on sale. The lab is where the soul of your shoes get sticky and you get to taste their new experiment. Sprite from Germany was the best. the different fantasy, and vitamin waters were good. Sour plum from Korea was the worst, it actually tastes like liquid smoke YUCK 🤢 Warning Wednesday seem to be couple school field trips. We saw probably a couple hundred kids waiting to go in. You don't want to be in there on those days so make sure you haven't made it in at that time with all the kids.

More of a CocaCola tasting experience than a full attraction. You start with a display of vintage Coke ads and characters, followed by a short intro video before entering the main tasting area. The highlight is sampling flavors from around the world as much as you like. Loved the dramatic door opening into Coke World and my favorites - Fanta Melon Frosty and Royal Watermelon. Labs aren’t necessary; the main draw is the tasting and the merchandise store. Not really worth visiting if you’re not particularly interested in tasting cola flavors.

Had a few hours off and went to the Coca-Cola museum. Had only around 1.5 hours, but would advise to spend at least 2 hours to see and experience everything. Quit interesting history, fun to mix your own drinks and challenge how good sense of smell you got!

If you're a Coke fan, it's great. Lots to see and taste. I'm just a standard drinker who was there for an event. It was interesting to try variants from other countries for sure, and I'd make it a stop if you have time but there are more interesting places to see in the area. For me personally I'd give it a 3, but I'm rating it for the target audience. :)

I would say that it was a pleasant experience for a date night once inside the park, though I found the price to be somewhat high. Certain areas were indeed very beautiful and tranquil, and the lighting was quite lovely. However, there were some aspects that were unfortunately quite disappointing and warrant mentioning. I had anticipated more based on the website's photographs, but as expected nothing is in bloom during the winter months, which I believe should be reflected in the pricing, especially since many attractions were closed. Regarding arrival, we were advised to arrive 15 minutes early, which we did. However, we were then informed that we needed to wait until our precise arrival time. This led to a rush of people trying to enter, which took an additional 10-15 minutes. The odor emanating from the restrooms was quite strong and the conditions within were unacceptable. The main entrance also had a noticeable smell of urine and other improperly disposed or uncleaned items from the restrooms. Furthermore, there is an additional charge for parking on top of the ticket price, and the parking garage was quite crowded. Despite these less favorable aspects of my visit, I would still be interested in returning during a time when everything is in bloom, hoping that improvements have been made to the issues I encountered. As i believe in second chances. Overall, it was an acceptable experience, but I had simply expected a bit more.

The Atlanta Botanical Garden is a true gem and a fantastic escape right in the heart of Midtown. This 30-acre urban oasis beautifully blends stunning horticulture with world-class art, offering a dynamic experience for everyone. ​Highlights You Can't Miss ​The Earth Goddess: The centerpiece, a massive, living topiary sculpture, is an absolute showstopper. ​Kendeda Canopy Walk: Stroll 40 feet above the Storza Woods on this unique treetop suspension bridge for incredible views. ​Fuqua Orchid Center: Marvel at one of the country's most extensive collections of orchids, including rare high-elevation varieties. ​Art and Exhibits: The gardens are peppered with impressive art, including beautiful glass sculptures by Dale Chihuly and fascinating seasonal exhibits. ​A Garden for All Seasons ​The Garden is wonderful year-round, with diverse exhibition areas like the Japanese Garden, Rose Garden, and the tropical Fuqua Conservatory. It also hosts popular seasonal events, such as the colorful "Atlanta Blooms" in the spring and the enchanting "Garden Lights, Holiday Nights" in the winter. ​Whether you're a serious plant enthusiast, looking for a tranquil date spot, or seeking a fun family outing—especially with the award-winning Children's Garden—the Atlanta Botanical Garden is a well-maintained, lush, and inspiring destination that's definitely worth a visit.

🌸 Atlanta Botanical Garden: A Whimsical Wonderland in Bloom This was truly something I enjoyed! The Atlanta Botanical Garden is a lush, enchanting escape nestled in the heart of the city. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted with a refreshing cocktail and a sense of magic in the air. The “Alice in Wonderland” theme added a playful, storybook charm—giant mushrooms, whimsical sculptures, and floral displays that felt straight out of a dream. Even with the heat, the beauty of the gardens and the creativity in every corner made it worth wandering. It’s more than a park—it’s a living gallery of nature and imagination. A perfect spot to slow down, sip something sweet, and let your senses bloom.

This was our first time visiting Atlanta, and the botanical garden was on our bucket list. My wife and I really enjoyed walking through all the different themed areas, the whole place was super clean and well taken care of. They gave us a map at the entrance that made it easy to find our way around, which helped a lot since the park is pretty big. The highlight for us was the indoor garden area. It was full of unique plants, facts, and displays—definitely our favorite part and something we’ll remember. We saw plants we’ve never seen before and learned a lot too. Overall, it was a great experience, and we’d for sure come back again in the future. Note: save $4 by buying ticket online but processing is $2.50 per ticket.

I loved my visit to the Atlanta Botanical Garden! It’s a large and beautiful place to walk around and explore. Depending on the season you visit, you’ll get a different experience. I went during Halloween, and everything was perfectly themed for fall — such a lovely atmosphere! One of my favorite parts was the Fuqua Orchid Center, absolutely stunning! Still, every area of the garden is worth admiring — the flowers, trees, and plants from so many different species make it a magical place. If you’re lucky, you might even spot some frogs in one of the sections! It’s a wonderful and family-friendly spot to enjoy nature and relax. I truly recommend it! 🌸🌳🍁 Also I’m visiting from Florida.

Went in Halloween season for the 🎃 carving contest; Variety of beer, food is ok for the price you pay, 2 bands playing live music really good. Wanted to see the famous “lady covered in green” but I guess it wasn’t the season. Went in a week day so the parking was Great and zero lines.

Just spent the day wandering through the Atlanta Botanical Garden, was there for a wedding, and honestly? I’m convinced I accidentally stepped into a fairytale and no one bothered to tell me. 😌💚 From the moment you walk in, it feels like Mother Nature hired her own glam squad. The lush greenery, towering sculptures, and colorful blooms are basically Instagram filters in real life. And don’t get me started on the Canopy Walk — I felt like a mildly adventurous forest elf, 10/10 would frolic again. 🧝‍♀️🌳 The Orchid Center? Pure magic. Like someone took every shade of "wow" and convinced it to grow petals. And yes, I absolutely pretended I was in a tiny jungle documentary while strolling through. Narration voice included. 📸🐒 If you need a peaceful escape, a cute date spot, or the perfect backdrop for pretending you’re living your soft-life dreams, this place is it. 🌸✨ Rating: 5 out of 5 enchanted leaves. 🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃 Would recommend: Anyone who likes plants, pretty things, or pretending they’re royalty in a botanical kingdom. 👑🌼 Go. Wander. Take too many pictures. Your camera roll will thank you. 📷💚

A wonderful remembrance of the things others have done to promote peace for all races. The monument is well kept and beautiful to behold. Very relaxing and serene. DR. King and his wife are buried next to each other in the stones shown below. This is must see tourist attraction about one of the most important events in history.

​This National Historical Park is an absolute cornerstone of American history. It masterfully connects the personal life of Dr. King to his world-changing movement, creating a powerful, deeply felt experience. ​✨ Top 3 Must-See Moments: ​Dr. King's Birth Home: Seeing the modest, two-story house grounds his immense story in a humble reality. Even if the full interior tour isn't available, the street and ranger presentation vividly bring his childhood in Sweet Auburn to life. ​The King Center & Eternal Flame: The reflection pool and the tombs of Dr. and Mrs. King provide a powerful space for quiet reverence. It’s a somber, yet incredibly inspiring, place to reflect on their sacrifice. ​Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church: Standing inside the sanctuary where Dr. King preached is a truly awe-inspiring moment. This was the spiritual and strategic heart of the movement, and you can practically feel the history in the air. ​Personal Takeaway: The park isn't just about looking back; it's a powerful call to action. It shows how one family and one neighborhood launched a global movement for nonviolent change. It's an essential, moving pilgrimage for all generations. ​Service offers a valuable ranger-led presentation about the home next door, and all other areas of the park are open!

I recently explored the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park in Atlanta and found it to be an incredibly moving and enriching experience. The park spans nearly 35 acres in the historic Sweet Auburn district, offering a wide range of landmarks tied to Dr. King’s life—from his childhood home and Ebenezer Baptist Church to the King Center and Freedom Hall. Starting at the Visitor Center, I joined a free ranger-led presentation that provided essential context before touring the birth home and the church. The emotional weight of standing where Dr. King lived and worshiped is truly unforgettable. Highlights include the serene World Peace Rose Garden, the “Behold” statue, the Walk of Fame honoring civil rights leaders, and the final resting place of Dr. and Mrs. King—marked by a reflective Eternal Flame. The park is thoughtfully laid out and very accessible, with plenty of space to reflect, learn, and engage. It’s a vital piece of our nation’s history and a must-visit for anyone in Atlanta.

We went to Atlanta for the purpose of the free museum and it's a great place to take the kids to learn about such a iconic guy in American history. Wish they had more statues of him around. It was a lot of photos. It would've been nice to see more life size statues. I was surprised to see that he was buried across from the museum in a fountain that was such a blessing. We had no idea he was laid to rest with his wife. I wish the house that he grew up in was open when we went. We did walk down the historic neighborhood and got to see all the old school houses that was really nice. I just wish we were able to go inside and get a tour. We didn't go in time for the church tour but for it to be free and the surprise of him being buried there was a great experience overall.

All services were back in business after the big government shutdown, as of November 17. So thankful, it was my only day in Atlanta to visit this sprawling site. PSA: The main museum is closed for renovations for the next year. There's a smaller museum above the gift shop, and a very cool walk through history in the old firehouse across Auburn St. The birth home is also undergoing repairs, so only the front of the house is viewable for the time being (through cyclone fencing). MLK Jr. and Coretta Scott King are interred on the grounds, and his voice echoes throughout the property with the I Have a Dream speech. There's so much to see, even with the repairs going on. And I was blown away by the flora and fauna as Fall fell here, just in time for an absolutely stunning backdrop.

Very peaceful place to visit. Your not allowed to take pictures in the exhibition areas but you can outside. The issue I had was that there was construction and fencing posted so getting to the actual place was a bit of a walk.

I took my family here and it was great to see and learn about the legacy of MLK and the time of the civil rights movement. The National Monument did a great job having different ways and perspectives to reach different people. We particularly enjoyed the video and checking out the historical buildings. Would highly recommend it.

A nice enough park which is pleasant to walk through and has a good number of things to admire. It’s well kept and a popular place, with some nice restaurants and bars surrounding. Well worth taking the time to wander through on any first time in the city.

Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta is one of the city’s most iconic and beautifully maintained public spaces, created as a legacy of the 1996 Olympic Games. Located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, the park serves as both a tribute to the Olympic spirit and a lively gathering place for residents and visitors alike. Its open green spaces, fountains, and scenic walkways make it an ideal destination for relaxation, recreation, and reflection. The park is immaculately maintained throughout the year. The lawns are lush and green, flower beds are well-kept, and the cleanliness of the pathways and seating areas is commendable. The landscaping has been thoughtfully designed to create a balance between open areas and shaded spots, allowing visitors to enjoy the park comfortably in every season. Whether you are out for a walk, a jog, or simply to unwind after visiting nearby attractions like the World of Coca-Cola or the Georgia Aquarium, the park offers a refreshing break from the urban rush. One of the most striking features of Centennial Olympic Park is the Fountain of Rings, a spectacular interactive water fountain designed in the shape of the Olympic rings. It is a favorite spot for families, especially children, who love playing in the dancing waters synchronized to music. In the evenings, the fountain show with colorful lights and music creates a joyful atmosphere that draws crowds and photographers alike. The park also holds great historical and emotional significance. Several monuments and plaques across the area commemorate the 1996 Summer Olympics and honor athletes and volunteers who contributed to its success. There’s a sense of pride and nostalgia in the air as you walk through, reminding visitors of Atlanta’s moment on the global stage. The Olympic torch replica and engraved bricks featuring the names of donors and supporters add to the charm and authenticity of the experience. In terms of accessibility, the park is very visitor-friendly. There are wide, well-marked walkways suitable for strollers and wheelchairs. Public restrooms, security personnel, and seating arrangements are available throughout the park. The surrounding area is vibrant, with plenty of restaurants, cafés, and attractions within walking distance. Public transportation and parking facilities are also conveniently located nearby. The park frequently hosts live concerts, cultural events, and seasonal festivals, which bring it to life with energy and music. During holidays, especially around Christmas and New Year, the decorations and lighting make the entire area look magical. Despite being located in a busy part of the city, the park maintains a peaceful and family-friendly environment. Overall, Centennial Olympic Park is a must-visit landmark in Atlanta — a place that combines history, beauty, and recreation. It represents the city’s transformation from its Olympic legacy into a modern, welcoming hub for all. Whether you’re a local seeking a relaxing afternoon or a traveler exploring downtown Atlanta, this park offers a memorable and uplifting

A fun place to walk around or stop for a coffee. Fall was in full effect for my visit, but the sun was most welcome. There is a mix of grass, paths, and monuments. There are some interesting info boards, too. I ran laps around the park just after sunrise, and this felt safe. There are a few homeless folks in and around the park, but they mostly keep to themselves.

A must-visit Atlanta landmark right in downtown. The park offers plenty of picnic areas and clean restrooms, making it convenient for families and groups. It’s a pleasant place for a walk, and you’ll also find many attractions nearby to explore.

Centennial Park in Atlanta is a beautiful and vibrant green space in the heart of the city. It’s perfect for a peaceful walk, a family outing, or just relaxing by the fountains. The park is clean, well-kept, and surrounded by major attractions, making it a great spot to enjoy nature while still feeling the energy of downtown Atlanta.

As my first time in Atlanta, visiting this park was on my top to do list recommended by lot of “things to do in Atlanta“. The park was clean and felt safe since it’s right across the aquarium and World of Coca-Cola, we crossed right over after visiting those experiences. The park had a nice walking trail around the park but aside from that there wasn’t too much to do or vendors around. For my first time experience, this park was very interesting and found a lot of history to it. To me this is more of a one time experience but definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Atlanta for their first time. Note: the Ferris wheel is right across the street. I recommend doing it to get night view and pictures of the downtown skyline 🏙️. 🙂 Time: 40 minutes Clean: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Crowd: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Interactive: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta, Georgia, is a vibrant 22-acre urban oasis commemorating the 1996 Summer Olympics, featuring the iconic Fountain of Rings with its interactive water jets that delight kids and choreographed light shows, surrounded by lush green spaces perfect for picnics and relaxation amid the city’s skyline. Nestled between top attractions like the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, and SkyView Ferris wheel, this impeccably maintained gathering spot offers endless family fun, scenic strolls, and a rich sense of history, earning it a well-deserved five-star rating.

This was a downright amazing experience. Our whole serving team was exceptional. Each course introduced us to the next chapter of the culinary story impeccably. Gracie paired amazing wines along our adventure. Rose kept pouring the love table-side. Impressed doesn’t even begin to cover our feelings with this meal tonight. The whole team, from kitchen to mixology to waitstaff, care about the hospitality they deliver and the quality of what they set down in front of us. Kudos and don’t change a thing. Cannot wait to return. Thank you!

From the moment I arrived, every member of the staff—hosts, servers, and everyone in between—made me feel truly celebrated with warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism. The food was impeccable: each dish exquisitely prepared, visually stunning, and bursting with flavor. As a discerning vegetarian and picky eater, I was amazed to savor every course, from vibrant entrées to indulgent, mouthwatering desserts. By the end of the evening, I left not only satisfied but elated. Everything exceeded my expectations!!!!

Lazy Betty was an amazing spot to celebrate our one-year wedding anniversary. We did the vegetarian dinner and were really impressed with how creative and thoughtful each course was. A lot of the dishes pushed us a bit out of our comfort zone, but in a good way—that’s honestly what made the experience so fun and memorable. The flavors were layered and interesting without feeling pretentious, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the menu. The drinks were strong (in the best possible way) and paired nicely with the food, and the ambience was warm, modern, and perfect for a special occasion. Overall, we had a great time and left feeling full, happy, and like we’d tried something new together. Would definitely recommend Lazy Betty for a date night or celebration, especially if you’re open to exploring a more elevated, creative vegetarian dining experience.

MY FIRST MICHELIN ⭐️ EXPERIENCE WAS AN EXCEPTIONAL ONE!!! ✨✨✨⭐️⭐️⭐️ From customer service to food to ambience to the fact that there are blankets in case you get cold, to the bathroom, to every single detail. SUPERB!!!!! Everyone from the staff was so in tuned with one another. No mistakes. No disrespectful behavior. No drunk patrons. 1 of 1 billion! The food was so delicious. On top of everything I don’t eat meat or gluten and OF COURSE they had the answer for me yet again! I Can’t wait to be back! THANK YOU AND THANK YOU FOR EXISTING!!! 🙏🏻♥️

While the airline dropped the ball, Lazy Betty picked it up SCORED! They made our night over in Atlanta positively memorable. The food is top tier, from flavors to execution we were so lucky to enjoy the deserved Michelin meal. Thank you kitchen team and chefs. Have to give a big shout out to Conrad and Austin. Austin for the warm hospitality and conversation at the bar. Conrad.... after hearing our plight of the airline causing us to miss our flight to Tokyo he pulled out all the stops for our experience. This gentleman went above and beyond for us, really showed us the meaning of Southern Hospitality. Thank you Conrad. If you're in or around Atlanta- Lazy Better is a must to visit!

F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C. From start to finish this was one of the most amazing tasting experiences we have ever had. The service was stellar to begin with but the presentation and flavors of the different courses stole the show. The freshness and attention to detail as far as the flavor profile were immediately notable. Get the caviar and A5 wagyu enhancements.

Literally. Amazing. My girlfriend treated me to this spectacular dinner for my 25th and wow… what a treat. We both did the vegetarian tasting menu and added the wine pairings and the truffle risotto. It added up to almost 1k… but honestly for how much fun we had we felt it was worth the money. The staff was so kind and attentive. The food was such an adventure. And the wine was out of this world. Hope to be back sooner than later!!

Service was incredible! Helped with recommendations and find my new favorite wine! Obviously incredible food, but Laura Lee made it perfect. Get the farm egg and pork!

We dined last night (V-Day) for the $135 prix fixe menu, and it was underwhelming (and not worth fighting the West Midtown traffic imo). The host area when you first walk in is EXTREMELY tight and congested offering little space for waiting. We arrived early and sat at the modestly sized bar for 15 minutes with NO acknowledgment from either bartender. We eventually called over a bartender to place a cocktail order. We were the only Black couple at the bar - hopefully, that wasn't a factor, but it certainly was a fact. The outside porch was nice, but not as climate controlled as I would've liked. I kept my jacket on the entire evening. Our server was polite and attentive, and with the exception of dessert, I enjoyed my meal (sweet potato gnocchi and fish entree). Overall, the coursing of the meal was a bit slow, and I was surprised that there was no bread service at all. If you're paying $135 for a meal, I think it should include bread service at a minimum. I appreciate the cocktail program as both of my cocktails were quite good. Overall, the Miller Union experience made me appreciate Bacchanalia even more.

Out of 5 stars, 3 is generous. I have been twice, and each time one dish out of several is quite good and the others are mediocre and a couple are not good. The egg in celery is a 7. Our waitress said the halibut was her favorite fish dish there ever but it was essentially a Thai dish overpowered by curry. I had lamb on pasta. The lamb was way way way overcooked. Blitzed. Realistically 7-10 minutes over. The sides were great. I asked the som for a recommendation of a piedmont wine for under 100. He recommended a wine that retails for 50, priced at 85, that was okay at best. This, sadly, is the state of the art in Atlanta dining. I spent 300 for 2. It was worth 75. Both times.

Miller Union came highly recommended to me so I was looking forward to trying it. When I arrived, I was happy to find that they had a valet. The facade of the building is unattractive (but that's not very important) but the inside is modern with some character. They have a good wine selection. The food was pretty good but not great. I had to duck. My friend had the fish. There was not anything wrong with food the meal, it just wasn't exceptional or noteworthy. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and professional I'm not giving this place five stars because the food was not exceptional, and they wouldn't allow tasting of the wine before committing to it -- even the ones with open bottles. Also, we were sat in this little nook with another table in very close proximity. Everything we said and they said could be heard because of the acoustics with the walls. Our neighbors were very loud and so it was not a romantic setting. One odd thing I noticed is that they kept their wine in a locked cabinet so that, as explained to me by one of the staff members, people on the staff or customers would not take it. I thought that was just quite odd for a place with this price point. Overall, I think most people would enjoy this place very much. I rate on a price value curve and so may be a little tougher than most. Proud to have 111 million views of my food photos. I'm attaching some of Miller Union here.

This was an exceptional experience. I went to Miller Union with the management team from Delbar Buckhead and we were blown away by the service. We felt like we were the only patrons there. From the valet to the bartenders to the servers and sommelier, everyone was attentive and friendly. The male bartender ran the drinks to our table and Laura, the other bartender, came by to check how the cocktails were. We ended up ordering every appetizer except two and every dish was flavorful and unique. The oysters and egg in celery cream were the stars of the appetizer course. Our main courses consisted of the seafood stew (my favorite), the risotto, the hanger steak and grouper. Every dish was excellent. Olivia, our server recommended the seafood stew and I love it. Glad we added it to our order. The sommelier, Princeton, recommended two wines; a Morgon and a red Sancerre which I had never even heard of. The Sancerre was my favorite and I am glad I had the chance to try it as they only had a handful of bottles. Dessert was banana pudding and the Hummingbird cake. The banana pudding is something I will always order whenever I see it on a menu and this was hands down the best I ever had. We were the last guests to leave the restaurant and at no time did we fell like they were ready for us to leave or were rushing us out. We had great conversations with all of the above mentioned staff. Great experience....can't say it enough.

As a first-timer here, I can confidently say that I'll definitely be coming back! I had heard so many good things about this restaurant, so I finally decided to check it out. Let me tell you, I was absolutely blown away by the seafood green curry. When the server brought the plate to our table, the first things I noticed were the vibrant green curry and crispy coconut rice. The dish was loaded with snow peas, carrots, radish, cilantro, and mint. And let me tell you, it was unbelievably delicious! Another favorite of mine was the lamb meatballs with strawberry salsa and the roasted poulet rouge. Both were just wow! And the cocktails we ordered were perfectly crafted. We tried the puddle jumper and bootlegger, and they were amazing. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes!

Fantastic service and atmosphere. I really enjoyed the space. The food was good, with some issues. The Farm Egg Baked in Celery Cream and the Farro w/ Brussels were delicious. The Pumpkin Soup tasted okay, but the uneven temperature was very distracting. Part of the soup was very warm and part very cold. The fish was also good but seemed not to be cleaned well. I ended up finding several scales as I was eating, which is unpleasant. The dessert was very pretty and also delicious.

This restaurant reminds me of the TV show The Bear—high-quality fine dining delivered in a fresh and unexpected way! All the chefs are hard at work in an open kitchen, each preparing their own special dish. Once it’s ready, they bring it straight to your table and offer it to you. You get to decide if you want it and how many portions you’d like. It’s an amazing system—such a great experience and absolutely phenomenal food! Every single dish was perfectly executed. I highly recommend this restaurant. We’ll definitely be back! Ps.: they customized the menu to say “Happy Birthday Brandon” for us! Great touch!

You come here to sample spectacular amazing beautiful food, not stuff your fat gullet. The staff is fantastically attentive, the sommelier is superb, the cocktails are transcendent, and the food is a blend of creativity, love, respect, and effort. You will spend money, but you will gain significantly more in a palette experience worth every penny.

Gunshow is less a dining hall and more an elaborate theatre, one where food plays the reluctant understudy to spectacle. They charge, mind you, not merely for sustenance but for art. Alas, one’s purse grows lighter whilst one’s stomach remains in tragic suspense often times. I departed the place not unlike a man who has attended a sermon, spiritually stirred, but bodily unfed. It is, in all fairness, an experiment and an expensive one, akin to those alchemists who turn gold into confusion. There is, I daresay, an air of European pretension about the whole affair, as though the roast quail had studied abroad and returned unbearably cultured. Reservations are scarce, of course, for scarcity is the new seasoning. It lends the place an aura of exclusivity, much like a velvet rope before an empty ballroom. I have dined upon finer fare and sipped more honest wine, yet I find myself oddly amused. For truly, no one visits Gunshow in pursuit of mere nourishment. Nay, one goes to witness the grand performance of modern appetite: where hunger and vanity duel with silver forks and the only casualty is one’s wallet. Tragic, delicious folly!

I've done Gunshow for my birthday the past two years now and it has impressed each time. I am both an avid cook and admirer of those who create unique dishes I would never think of, so this is a great place to be inspired. My only complaint, is that both times they forgot it was my birthday (not a huge deal) and someone else at a table near me did not have their birthday forgotten haha. It's almost a tradition now and I'll probably be back next year.

Such a fun concept! Reading the menu we were unsure what sounded good but then the chefs come by and explain their dishes and you gotta have it. One recommended saving the crab omelette to eat with the steak course and we were not disappointed! I think we only passed on one dish the entire night. Creative cocktails, great food and a fun atmosphere. Definitely check this place out!

I visited with a professional group and had an amazing tasting experience. The food and craft drinks were on point, and the service was stellar. I will definitely be back.

After living here for seven years, I can confidently say that Gunshow is THE most creative dining experience in the city — a decade‑old “classic” that reinvents itself every time you visit. Located in the vibrant Glenwood Park neighborhood, everything about Gunshow is bold, experimental, and interactive. 1. The concept is bold and interactive: chefs in t-shirts walk up to you, introduce their signature dish, and you decide whether you want it or not. 2. The environment is more like a dining hall than a fine-dining restaurant: guests sit together next to and across from each other along several long tables. 3. They end the experience on a high note. After each group finishes their meal, if you would like, the whole squad will ring a metal bell and gather together with you to take a Polaroid photo in front of the signature Gunshow letters and the iconic open kitchen. We ordered the following to be shared for the evening: 🍈 cantaloupe — vodka, cantaloupe, pink peppercorn, lemon, bubbles 🦪 admiral oyster, bear creek beef, hay 🐟 bramlett trout, chanterelle, whey 🐚 sapelo island clam, hickory hill potato, nc trout roe 🦀 dungeness crab, carolina gold, benton’s bacon 🥩 dry-aged bear creek ribeye, sauce périgueux, eggplant 🌱 moore summer squash, banana pepper, pineapple mint 🌽 arrivato ossetra caviar, bradford corn, 5n egg yolk 🍌 warm old-fashioned banana pudding A few dishes stood out: The ribeye paired with onions and eggplants, served with preserved beauty berries was my favorite by far; the pickled eggplant and berries paired beautifully with the smoky, tender dry-aged ribeye. I didn’t expect the summer squash to a showstopper — the citrusy and freshness brought by the banana pepper and pineapple mint from complemented well with the summer squash grilled over embers. The egg omelette filled with Dungeness crab was the most creative dish on the menu, but it was overly salty, overshadowing the richness and umami flavors from the crab, butter, and bacon dashi. Chef Kevin Gillespie and Chef Cody Chassar are the masterminds behind Gunshow, which opened in 2013. Gunshow celebrates seasonality and local ingredients, sourcing from farms like Bear Creek Farm, Moore Farms, and Sapelo Island. The menu changes regularly, with dishes that are fresh, surprising, and deeply inventive. The name Gunshow is a tribute to Gillespie's family and the time he spent with his father going to actual, literal gunshows. Taste: 8.5 Value: 7.5 Experience: 9.5 Overall: 8.5/10 ——— Atlanta, USA

Being our (my girlfriend and I’s) first time at a Michelin Star restaurant, we were very nervous coming in as we do not normally eat at an establishment this high. We did not know what to expect. But the food and the entire staff took those nerves and made our experience there something we will need to see again! The staff made us feel at ease, wishing us a Happy Anniversary any opportunity they get. It felt like they knew our dinner was very important to us. They were meticulous in how they presented a dish or how they cleaned the table and it was very nice to see and experience. The food was a once in a lifetime experience. We’ve never had food so good. We were blown away. The cliche of having small portions at a nice, fancy restaurant was not true at Bacchanalia. We were stuffed by the end, and everything was perfect from my 1st course through the 4th. Each dish we ate had very nice flavors, some bites we were left breathless. They also added in small dishes to start off and a couple in between which was also a nice surprise. If I am given the opportunity to come back here again, I would. I am glad that Bacchanalia gave the love of my life and I a perfect dinner for our First Anniversary and a memory that will last a lifetime!

From the moment you approach Bacchanalia, the restaurant’s meticulous attention to detail is unmistakable. Even before entering the dining room, guests are welcomed by the adjoining delicatessen—an inspired extension of the restaurant that serves both day and evening customers. This boutique-style market is more than a grab-and-go spot; it offers a beautifully curated gift area, thoughtfully stocked with seasonal items, artisan provisions, and gourmet treats that mirror the restaurant’s ethos of craftsmanship and quality. Inside Bacchanalia, the décor and ambiance continue this philosophy of refinement and purpose. The interior is elegant yet understated, intentionally designed to let the food and wine pairings take center stage, seperate private dining areas are designed with curtains and rope latice, allowing private dining but still enjoying the nouse and chatter from the main restaurant. Nothing is distracting or superfluous; instead, every design choice subtly reinforces the restaurant’s dedication to culinary artistry. Soft lighting, clean lines, and natural textures create a serene backdrop that enhances the sensory experience without competing with it, water glasses so fragile that they give tbe illusion of water standing on its own on the table, a nice clean touch. A core part of Bacchanalia’s identity is its unwavering commitment to sourcing locally. The restaurant proudly lists the farms, growers, and suppliers who contribute to its menu, demonstrating a transparent and deeply rooted respect for its ingredients. This connection to the region is felt in every course, where flavors are pristine, seasonal, and delicately balanced. The music—a detail often overlooked in fine dining—receives equal consideration here. The soundtrack of soft jazz gently fills the room, adding warmth without intruding on conversation. In past seasons, Bacchanalia has even featured selections tied to celebrated performers such as Wynton Marsalis and the Atlanta Symphony, who have notable performance dates scheduled for February 2026. This thoughtful curation adds yet another layer to the restaurant’s sensory elegance. Bacchanalia remains one of Atlanta’s most refined culinary experiences—an establishment where every element is intentional, and every detail enhances the whole, well deserving of their Michelin star, and at a very reasonable price fix. A must visit, and not being left empty handed you are invited to take a loaf of the restaurants bread home, wrapped in a delightful brown paper bag.

For a prix fixe, it's a good amount of food and you'll definitely be full. There were a lot of good things about the food. There were some amusement bouche items, an intermezzo, and some Madeleines and chocolate to finish off the night. They also start the night off with some Brazilian cheese bread. So it's more like 4 courses with four smaller items in between. And you get two sides (sauteed bok choy and frisee tomato and nardello pepper salad) to share. It is good value for the amount of food you get. I started with the poached lobster. It was okay. Honestly, it was a little tough and I had a hard time cutting through it with my knife even. Honestly a little bland... The scallops were my favorite item of the night. Perfectly cooked and the sauce was amazing. My friends seemed to like the duck they got. My biggest disappointment of the night was the cheese course with the bread. I got the straciatella with peaches and hazelnuts with raddichio. It was really weird...and the cheese was too salty and I was just having an odd salad. The parker house rolls came in a cute mini cast iron but they were cold. The sourdough was super tough as well. For a restaurant with a Michelin star, I would have at least expected the bread to be warm. The chocolate souffle was ok. The cherry or whatever compote at the bottom was a little unpleasant. All in all, the food was quite forgettable and I think the fact that it has a Michelin star really set the expectations too high. The server was great. Otherwise, I don't think I'll ever come back. At certain points in the night, I wondered how this place got a star in the first place because the food was not that great.

Had a wonderful experience. The food was so good. I had the SF egg, the lamb, blue cheese pate and apple dessert. There was not one part that I did not love. The food portions were larger than your usual fine dining experience- I left feeling stuffed. Will definitely be coming back!

Really great spot with a nice wooden decor. Have seating for larger parties. All the mocktails were creative and not just juice which is much appreciated. The standouts menu wise were the elijay apple and the sf egg. The best cheese was the stracciatella

Bacchanalia is a place I have been wanting to go for a while and finally made it. The food was excellent, all the courses were well thought and loved each of them. The mushrooms were a different level. Service was great right out of the door. Everyone was courteous and friendly.

The food was delicious and the service was amazing. The only thing I think can be improved is the pacing of the meal, which seems like more of kitchen issue than a service issue. I enjoy a little bit of time between courses to take in the experience but it was more than that. I was told dinner would take about 3 hours when I made the reservation and I did have a large party, however dinner was closer to 4 hours and I felt like I was going to fall asleep at the table after that much food an wine. Overall it was an amazing experience for a special occasion.

Went to staplehouse for lunch to try the grinder sandwich, but ended up trying the pizza as well. We went on a Saturday and street parking was free. We ordered the grinder sandwich for $23 and a pesto and Jamon (ham) pizza for $35. The food came out within 15 minutes. The grinder sandwich was tasty! There were many flavors and textures. Overall, it had a strong garlic/pesto saucy flavor to me. I liked the crunch of the pickled carrots. It's a good sandwich for sure if you're a sandwich lover. The pizza we picked had no cheese layer or red sauce. It was smoked burrata with Jamon ham, and arugula with balsamic vinegrette on top, so it almost felt like a salad on top of the pizza. The pizza dough was thin and delicious, but they somehow get the crust thick and chewy. The flavor again was very pesto and balsamic vinegarette driven. It was well made and the arugula was very crunchy/fresh, but it's a personal size pizza for a steep price. Overall, we thought that the food was well made and good, but i don't see myself going out if my way to come here for a sandwich or pizza. One thing that surprised us was that they charge a 4% employee health insurance to their customers for their employees. It wasn't disclosed in advance, so we were surprised when we saw it on our receipt. I'm sharing just in case anyone has a budget to follow, as it is a surprise charge. This place is mainly self service, so you can get your own water and napkins. There's limited seating inside and an outdoor patio. It's casual inside with lots of plants and wine. Cool experience!

Staplehouse is absolutely gorgeous—such a cool, homey, and relaxed atmosphere that I really enjoyed. The salads were incredible, especially the tomato salad, which was easily the standout. The pizzas had great flavor, but unfortunately, the toppings slid off the moment you picked up a slice, which was a bit disappointing. The ricotta pizza with spicy honey and tomato sauce was extremely spicy—much spicier than expected. I wish the person taking our order had given us a heads-up, as I assumed it would be more of a mild drizzle than a full-on heat experience. The drinks, however, were amazing! I had the Bramble, and it was super refreshing. One thing that caught me off guard was the self-service aspect—you have to grab your own plates, silverware, and water from a large orange jug. If my friend hadn’t been there before, I wouldn’t have known that, as no one explained it to us. Finally, while I understand and respect their concept, paying $60 for a salad, pizza, and one drink, I didn’t expect to bus my own table at the end. It just didn’t quite match the price point or dining experience I anticipated.

Discovered this restaurant in the Michelin Guide as it has a Michelin star. Was very excited to try this place and looking at the reviews and photos my hopes were high. My first confusion was with the menu. While it said that some items are rotating I was unable to find an actual menu on their website, just an ordering page that seemed too short to be true. Parking for the restaurant was hard on a Saturday for dinner - not the restaurants fault. Greeting staff was very friendly on reserved me a seat outside while I was ordering as this restaurant does not have table service. Ordering was a little weird as the menu wasn’t really visible with two people in front of me and drinks were spread across a couple of open fridges which didn’t really give this a premium experience for the price. Guy at the checkout was nice too but didn’t ID for my drink. An auto gratuity of 20% seems to be the unfortunate standard now and even though I was pretty sure I selected other tip and no tip, again since there was no real table service, I was charged a roughly 20% tip. I wouldn’t be surprised, however, if the restaurant included a hidden automatic 20% gratuity as they also charge a 4% EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE SURCHARGE. With the prices of menu items this was a little bit outrageous to me. Now to the actual food: ordered the SH hot chicken and got my order brought to my table in a short amount of time. Presentation was very underwhelming for a Michelin star restaurant and the taste even more so. Nun had little to no taste at all. Chicken didn’t feel like the best quality but I couldn’t really tell because it was so spicy - at least that was right. Could not taste the mayo unfortunately. Overall, a chicken sandwich from pretty much any fast casual chain would’ve been tastier and the item should have deserved some kind of a side. One of the staffers rolled their eyes when I asked for napkins and another argued with me that this would be Nashville style hot chicken is just supposed to be burning in your mouth. If this was supposed to be Nashville style hot chicken I have had better at some fast food chains. Overall a very disappointing experience and would not consider coming back. Pizza looked very good but since the staffer at the register advised me against it I wouldn’t take the risk and come back to try it. Very unfortunate - my worst experience with a Michelin star restaurant so far.

Always a good time with really interesting, beautiful food! The dry aged Sunday burger was amazing. A great spot in the summer because their patio is beautiful.

10/10 market style restaurant in ATL I love staplehouse!! This was my second time visiting and I had to bring my mom here when she was in town. We had the pepperoni pizza and caesar salad. The salad was very try non traditional with kale, fennel and crunchy onions, but everything was delicious. Not pictured was the huge lemon white chocolate cookie was devoured after lunch. You have to try this restaurant if you haven’t yet!

It was incredible. The way they transformed the cabbage into salmon, the carrots into butter cashew curry, the botanical flourishes with every course - tempura sesame leaves topped with carrot slices that looked like mushrooms growing on bark, the nasturtium leaves that looked like lily pads atop the Hokkaido scallops, the sorrel soaked apple caviar at the end that brought us back around to the finger lime at the start. Loved it all.

Charcuterie board was simple but good. Caesar Salad was unique but forgettable. Pizza was disappointing-The counter recommended the white pizza... It was overwhelmingly salty and fishy... inedible. Service was friendly and environment was kid-friendly.
