The Apron is on the Porsche property in Hapeville inside the Krimpton Overland Hotel. This is my 2nd visit. I came a couple years ago (before Rona) with a friend and had a great time. I don't know what happened to my pics form then. We had a whiskey flight, which I don't see on the menu now. The server was going to ask the bartender but I never got an answer back. The whiskey flight was fun. My friend doesn't drink whiskey normally so that was fun in & of itself. Then, we came on a Friday, late afternoon or early evening and the bar and restaurant were bustling with activity. It was lively and an electric vibe. My husband &I came around 9:20 pm on Friday 11/12/21 and the vibe was more chill. There weren't many people in the bar area or the tables. They had a DJ who played some chill music, then blended old school & r&b into the mix but the technique wasn't as smooth as I'd like. He had great music going, but I'd get into a song, he'd mix in something else. Anyway, good music that added to the vibe. I was looking forward to the whiskey flight but when I didn't see it, I ordered the Barrel Aged Meaningful Manhattan. It was very good & is for an important cause, so I had to support. At the end of our meal I ordered the Pecan Green Tea Toddie. Be ready to go to sleep after that one1 lol. You can order it holt or cold. Since it was a cool Fall night, I chose the hot version. I'm a bourbon drinker and like a good toddie, & not just when I'm sick, but bay-bayyyy! I asked for simple syrup to go into. that made it better to me. My husband started with the butternut squash hummus & I had the Autumn Salad. I liked my salad with baby kale, thin apple slices, Autumn squash, goat cheese, & carrots. It came with a honey walnut vinaigrette and I wish I had a smidge more of it but it was good. The hummus was better and I wish I'd ordered it. I considered getting one to go lol. It's a slightly sweet hummus due to the butternut squash of course, but it really works. It was different and tasty. For entrees, my husband ordered the shrimp & grits with the sauce on the side & extra shrimp. The additional shrimp aren't pictured as they came in the side after I took the pictures. He doesn't like waiting for me to take pictures of his food so I had to rush it smh. The dish was flavorful and well seasoned. The shrimp on the side were seasoned very well. He asked for salt for the main meal, but can sometimes ask for salt when I don't see the need. The shrimp are large, the sausage complements the flavors & the grits were perfect, making for a thick creamy hearty meal. He liked the sauces and added it gingerly to the first bite. He said it had a slight kick but then poured some into the bowl. It looked like marinara sauce, but I didn't taste it. He said it worked well in the meal. I ordered the pan seared trout and it was very good! I could've had the skin a little crispier but the flavors were there. Under the trout is the butternut squash hash. When I think of hash, I think if potatoes, but there weren't any in the dish. Go figure. I was a little concerned about what the "hash" would look and taste like but figured it was the side, not the main part of the meal, so no worries. Luckily, it was good and was basically Brussel sprouts cut in half and butternut squash diced and tossed in seasonings & some garlic. It's a large amount so thankfully, it was good. I was stuffed and probably content after the Autumn Salad so no dessert. Although, I did want to try the Caribbean banana pudding. When I wanted to order, it was after 10 & the kitchen was closed. I can't wait to try it next time. It has plantains instead of bananas. Next time... I'd recommend Apron for a good vibe to chill or be lively depending on the time you arrive, different creative dishes, good drinks. I've yet to see a car go around the track but would like to return and witness this also as part of the restaurant allows you to see the Porsches driven around the track. Sounds cool, right?
This was a fun spot if you're looking for a nice place to eat near the airport. Which is exactly what we were looking for! It's part of the Kimpton hotel in Hapeville, and there is ample outdoor seating (at least enough for a weeknight!). We were concerned about the noise level sitting outside near the airport, but it wasn't an issue. You can see the planes coming in, about to land, but it wasn't insanely loud or anything. In fact, the plane landings was very exciting for the 8 year old in our party, who kept tapping all of us every time she saw one. Which was about every 5 minutes, haha. It's also right next to the Porsche Experience, so that was also a novelty factor for the little one. The restaurant doesn't have a kids menu, but they do have a few options for kids ready to go. And they were also accommodating to our dog, and tables were spread out enough that she had some space to roam on her leash. The cocktails were pretty good, and the presentation was fun. Mine (the love potion #9) came in a golden coupe glass. Very fancy. The food was standard hotel fare. A bit overpriced, a little predictable, but totally met expectations. Nobody had any complaints. I had the grilled chicken sandwich, and it was good, but a little too "blackened" for my taste. The fries it came with were nice and crispy. There is definitely something for everyone here, a couple sandwiches, shrimp and grits, fish, mac and cheese, etc. The service was leisurely, but nice, so I wouldn't count on coming here in a hurry. But it was a good experience!
This place was a great find on the south side of town. There are not many great options , but this place is the bomb.com. Great service , vibey atmosphere and a wonderful rooftop view! It's a must see and must eat!! The southern finest cocktail was a hit! The cajun pasta had me thinking I was in Nawlins! The fried green tomato's and the Brussel sprouts were delish! Don't forget to have dessert!
Came in one late night while staying at the hotel. The menu was limited and only two girls were working so the service was a bit slow, but they handled it well and were very kind. The vibe was cozy, I sat at the high tables and met up with a friend. I opted for the tacos and they were so good I had to get another order. I ate six tacos that night and I have no shame. The crème brûlée cheesecake was also delicious. On my next stay I look forward to trying a few more items in the menu.
We stayed at the Kimpton Overland (this restaurant is inside) and always like to try the onsite restaurant. It was a rainy Friday and after 9pm, so we booked open table reservations and headed in. We definitely didn't need reservations as the place was pretty empty. Service was prompt and friendly. Atmosphere was cool. It's a dark, open concept with a big bar and various seating areas. Drink menu is very nice. Well curated bar with some good drinks. Both of ours were a touch sweet though no simple syrup was listed as an ingredient. We got the Atlanta and Money Business. The two stars are because the drinks were fairly good. The food and lack of information by our server deserves zero stars. The menu is not vegan friendly at all. We usually can create a meal based on sides though. They did have one cauliflower dish on the menu that was vegetarian. So we informed our server we were vegan and talked through a plan to get the cauliflower without mayo and the sides from some of the other dishes. The sides included a sweet potato, broccolini, carrots, and fingerling potatoes. The food came out quickly which was great. The sides came out first. Likely, they all started out colorful and fresh, but were served in an oil slick. We hope it was oil and not butter, but can't be sure because our server didn't understand/care about our dietary restrictions. The sides weren't seasoned in any special way. The two best were the sweet potato which was roasted and the fingerling potatoes which were crispy. The cauliflower dish was strange in that there was just florets and tons of golden raisins with a light vinegary flavor. I saw Za'tar seasoning on another dish and asked for a side of the spice because my dishes needed help. The server brought it over in a small plastic cup and it was almost like a brown gravy. Not a dried spice. We dipped some food into it and I started to get a bad feeling about what was in it. Surely our server would have told us if there were animal products in this sauce since we ordered only vegetables and told him we were vegan. So we asked if there was beef or chicken broth in it and he said he'd check. He came back and told us there was beef broth in it. I am really upset that he didn't care enough to listen to us or be proactive. If you're allergic to anything or have dietary restrictions, do not come here. You will leave sick and/or disappointed.
The convenience of having a quality restaurant connected to your hotel is refreshing! The Apron is located on the first floor of the hotel but they also have a rooftop bar that you can order food from too. The establishment was very clean and the service was great! Our waiter knew everything about the food on the menu and we even made it during complimentary wine hour! (5-6pm)! We enjoyed FOUR free glasses along with the food posted. We also tried the chicken with egg plant and the pecan tart (not pictured) but it was also very delicious. Will no doubt visit again. It's fun to constantly watch the planes land and take off. This place is family/kid friendly as well.
The beef tacos came with big portions of shredded beef, tenderloin beef was very soft and cooked at perfection. The customer service is very friendly, the hostess always smile and are helpful.
Beautiful presentation and great taste but I don't know about this place. Everyone in my party experienced stomach pains and discomfort shortly after we left. My stomach still isn't feeling right I personally would not recommend
Hipster meets modern edge vibe. Very welcoming and clean cut corners, I really liked the feel walking in after a long day of traveling. The host was very gracious and sat us at a booth, sweet and snug away from the filled tables. The sweetest waitress, Tonaye guided us through the menu as I nitpicked and prodded at each item, she was amazing and answered all my questions! I've ordered a hot toddy in several states over the last few months but this is the first to ask me what type of tea I would like with it and if I prefer upper shelf spirits!! Tonaye made me the best hot toddy...I'm loving it, chamomile, Hennessy with a swirl of honey and spritz of lemon cough died down instantly. Ordered: Veal ossoboco: delish! With creamy polenta and sage Caesar salad minus the anchovies with chicken: crisp and fresh Roman we ordered the dressing on the side. Chicken was juicy and tender. Shirizi salad: crispy pepperchini made this dish 10 out of 10!! Dolmeh: basic but if you haven't had it before it is impressive.
The staff was really friendly and polite. We had a few hiccups, that were fixed and appreciated. For example, my drink (rising sun) was a little too strong for my liking. My order was ready first and they had my guest order wrong. So they took my food back so that it can be ready with my guest. Luckily it was still hot. With Covid and most places being short staffed, I didn't hold this against them too harshly. It was about 2 to 3 people working and a birthday party was happening which took most of the attention from the few staff that was working. My meal was the shrimp and grits. The grits were very rich and creamy. 5 huge shrimp came with it, but the grits is what will get you full (incase you come starving like I was) overall This place is great for drinks and socializing. The menu was more fitting for appetizers and small plate type meals, unless shrimp and grits is your thing which appeared to be the only full sized meal. There was a band playing great music that was head-bop and two step worthy! I would give this place another try as it has great potential if they are fully staffed. I would come earlier in the evening before it gets too busy.
