    What a cool place. Discovered it incidentally while in downtown Atlanta. Upscale with a dress code…read morethankfully. The entrance code can be obtained from their website or local hotel concierges. Dial the number on the antique phone and the door magically opens. The staff super friendly and helpful. The bartenders are the best, clearly passionate about their work. I highly encourage you to try one or several of their signature cocktails. I sampled the Left Bank Martini and Vesper. As expected they are fully stocked with Pappy Bourbon, hard to find Amaro Noni. Ask a bartender about the ice block. The place is spacious unlike other speakeasys I've been to. Lots of niche areas with couch reservations, pool table available. No time for a cigar but that is on my list when I return. Food available from their upstairs sister restaurant.

    I stopped in for a quick drink before heading to my next destination, and my experience was not…read moreonly disappointing--it was unacceptable. I sat at the bar and had a little light banter with the bartender who is a brother looking to be in his late 30's-early 40's. When I asked about two fruity cocktails from the menu, he flat-out said he wasn't going to make them. That alone was off-putting. Trying to move forward, I asked what he specialized in, and he said he'd "come up with something." I agreed--but very clearly stated: no rum, because my body does not react well to it. After watching him make drinks for people who ordered after me, he eventually handed me a cocktail I never even saw him prepare. That already raised a flag. I took a few sips, and sure enough--my stomach immediately started reacting the exact way it does when I've had rum. When I asked what alcohol he used, he said, "I don't even know." That response alone tells you everything you need to know. At that point, I reminded him I specifically said no rum. Instead of taking accountability, he tried to argue and backtrack. Let me be clear--when a customer tells you not to use a specific liquor, you don't ignore it, guess, or "forget." That's basic service and basic respect. This situation completely threw off my evening, as I had plans afterward and ended up feeling sick. To make matters worse, I reached out to management and received no response. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the end of the day, this wasn't just a bad drink--it was careless service. This staff does not prioritize customer care, and that's a problem. If you choose to visit, be very direct, pay close attention, and don't assume your requests will be respected.

    This cocktail lounge is a cool spot! We had a private party for 20 and reserved the "Tight Squeeze"…read moresection which was behind a very nondescript door (like a speakeasy??) and right next to the bar, with a big center table where most of stood around, and then comfy sofas and chairs on the periphery. Since the other side of the bar was pretty much almost outside with a deck, they had heated lamps throughout. To order food or drinks, we went to the bartender - there is no server walking around to take orders. All of us kept an open tab - and they do automatically charge 20% tip. Our bartender was really good and super nice! And they have Happy Hours specials 4:30-7pm - even Sat/Sun ... so I took advantage of that! MELON BALL - $9 I'd never had a melon ball before and it was really yummy :) DOS CONFIT DUCK TACOS - $10 Two corn tortilla tacos w/ duck confit (birria style), NY sharp cheddar (actually I don't remember having cheese in mine), and mango chutney ... good option if you're looking for a lite bite. I enjoyed mine! LEMON PEPPER FRITES - $6 House-cut fries w/ lemon pepper dusting. The tacos weren't enough, lol - plus the fries were a good portion for sharing. I wish they sprinkled more lemon pepper but it was fine. Next time I'd like to try their Big Mac sliders - those looked really good! The shrimp po' boys looked good too! Looking at the regular menu, the food prices are very reasonable. Overall great spot for groups! They are located at Colony Square - although I knew the restaurant location, I did get disoriented after coming from the parking garage and trying to figure out where was 14th Street but a lovely policeman walked me there. Remember to bring your parking ticket and then ask the hostess to validate your ticket when you leave the restaurant - supposedly it's free up to 2 hours but I stayed there for over 6 hours and didn't have to pay for parking, yay!

    I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unfortunately. We had such bad and ultimately rude service. At…read morefirst everything was great, our server was attentive for a group of 12ish people. As the night went on, we ordered more drinks and our server also ordered more drinks for himself (which we could see him drinking). He was incredibly rude and at times would just disappear. Mind you we were one of the only groups in the restaurant... all other tables had 'reserved' signs on them. For who? I'm not sure. He was obviously very annoyed to have to serve us and made rude comments to a few people in our group. For the food - the served actually told us 'you didn't order that' when we reminded him or 2 items that were forgot. They came out about 15 mins later. The 2 pizzas in my photos were the same pizza... not sure what happened there.

They even had games you could play at the table, which made it a cool spot to hang out. The burgers were honestly top tier. Definitely one of the best things on the menu, and I would absolutely recommend getting a burger here. The empanadas were also delicious, and the wings were bussin' too. The only thing I personally wouldn't recommend is the club sandwich, but overall the food was really solid. Great atmosphere, great service, and definitely a place I'd go back to.

    Had a company event at Ormsby's and the staff was excellent! They were all attentive, welcoming,…read moreand were very helpful in swiftly clearing out plates, passing out validation stickers, and refilling waters. My company had a whole spead of food, but my favorites were definitely the coconut curry and the blackened chicken. The curry had great flavor, a nice kick of heat to it, and was filled with tender vegetables. The blackened chicken was very tender and also had great flavor! Of everything I ate, the steak chimichurri skewers were one of my least favorites. The meat was not tender, and I found myself gnawing on the meat a bit. The alfredo was also alright. It was pretty plain in flavor, but adding the chicken helped a lot. I got the Eastern Promise (mocktail) and it was decent, just not a mocktail that really stood out in my opinion. It'd be better on a hot day, as it's more refreshing. There were a lot of bar games to play downstairs (darts, bocce ball, board games, etc.); and some other games were pay to play (skeeball, pinball). I didn't really play any of them, but it's nice that they offer it! Ormsby's validated our parking for up to 3 hours in the parking garage right next to the Flower Child.
