    Good place for light bites, crafted, cocktails, Brazilian beverages and music. The set up is a bit unique, and appears to be a growing structure. Boteco is one of the first places I recall that have a food truck set up to prepare meals. You order at the bar and then an attendant brings the food to you either inside in the many booths available for dining or outside dining options, near the food truck as well as the rear of the building. Menu offerings included tacos, sandwiches, quesadillas, and several sides, including rice, beans, yucca, fries, and garlic lime rice to name a few. I chose a fish taco, a shrimp, taco and garlic lime rice for my evening meal. Everything was good overall; the rice not so much. It lacked flavor. It did not have the seasoning expected by its appearance. The addition of salsa, which were an additional fee, helped. The tacos were good and served on either option of flour or corn soft shells. I chose flour. The ala carte meal was filling without feeling stuffed and paired well with Pisco based alcoholic beverage. I frequent Buteco primarily for the music, which usually consists of DJs in the covered area behind the main bar. Line up changes and usually posted as signage indicates. Will definitely return and nice to have eating options like Buteco/foodtruck when in vicinity!

    Stopped by here on a Wednesday night with friends. We came early so we found seats, however, seating was scarce so I reccomend bringing a foldable chair or being prepared to stand. The weather was cooler but there were plenty of heaters outside and it was warm indoors. They have a menu with Mexican food so its a good spot for a late night bite. The music was good and there were various djs throughout the night. Good spot for a nightcap.

    I stopped by Buteco for a quick snack. The bartender was really nice and I was immediately greeted. They offer Brazilian street food along with drinks. The menu offers appetizers, like yuca fries, and also other things like tacos, taco bowls, and quesadillas. I ordered a shrimp quesadilla ($8). It was delicious, but small. You have the option of getting it with grilled or fried shrimp. I opted for grilled shrimp. The food and vibes are amazing, but food items like tacos are overpriced in my opinion. Tacos start at $5 for 1 taco. They do offer a smaller crunchy ground turkey taco for 2 for $6 though. There is ample parking and they have inside and outside dining options.

    The ambiance is always amazing. Great intimate venue with incredible vibes. Nothing pretentious, just great music and organic energy. I went to check out the Jam Session Thursday and loved it. The food was ok. I ordered the fried cod but got grilled so a slight oversight. It was alright but fried was better from what I saw someone else eating. It also took a while to get it so they can work on that. The bartender was extremely helpful though. I have this place on my list and as the weather becomes more beautiful I expect to be there more often.

    Service: friendly Wait time: 20min Food: Ok You order in the bar (the bartender takes your order) and it's cooked in a food truck that sits right outside. You can sit in the bar or outside by the food truck. Both areas are pretty small. Overall the food was just ok. Also, considering the cost, I expected bigger portions.

    Loved my experience. I was a little weary of the menu but just go for it! It's all good! The bartender is so sweet, friendly, knowledgeable, and beautiful inside and out. She genuinely loves the history of drinks, bartending, food! She's so smart it's crazy. I highly recommend you grab their Thyme drink while it's still in season. Best and most creative drink I've had in a while. The chef came in. She checked on my husband and I as she passed through. She made us feel so special. She has a really huge love for food comparable to that of the lovely bartender. And boy can she cook. Everything was seasoned to perfection and cooked perfectly. That girl can COOK! The red salad was delicious. It's different from your basic red salsa. It's minced well but watery or chunky. Everything is fresh. Period. The ambiance was amazing even though we were the only people there at the time. I'm going back, wish I was there now actually! Thanks for the great experience yall!

    Wednesday nights are my favorite night to come to bunco because they always have great DJs and music, the drinks are pretty affordable and the food truck outside is always tasty. The crowd is pretty chill, sometimes 40 and older but they are not afraid to have a good time and dance like nobody's watching. You never have to wait long at the bar for a drink and you have the option to sit inside in 2 areas or hangout on the patio on a nice day. Random: I like the posters on the bathroom walls.

    Never had a Birria taco until today and I Loved it! Literally ate it for lunch then came back for dinner! The Feyvorita drink was just the right touch as well. Caipirinha was just okay to me. Chef couldn't talk so he wrote me a note to communicate. That's service!!!! The bar staff was knowledgeable and felt like old friends. I was here a few years ago and didn't love it too much, so I enjoy the change.

    Wonderful food- long long wait but there was live music and cheap drinks so it wasn't a problem

    Stopped by for coffee one weekday morning. Plenty of parking in The Beacon. I was welcomed by a friendly barista/bartender as soon as I entered. The space is bright, fun and colorful. Ample seating indoor. There were only 3 customers at the time. I ordered an oat milk latte with cinnamon and honey and sat down to do some work. Within minutes, the barista brought me my drink. The latte was solid. Great flavor, too. I really enjoyed it and will return if I'm in the area!

    We stopped by for a light meal. We loved the patio seating and the vibe of Buteco. We ordered the savory sampler and the plain waffle and the portion was plenty for splitting (as long as you're not too hungry). The texture of the waffle was crunchy exterior with a chewy texture from the tapioca flour. The guava sauce and the sauce for savory sampler were fantastic! The beverages were fun, tasty and most importantly not too sweet. We will definitely be back! It's a great place to come and enjoy some fresh air!

    Didn't ask for extra crispy but it was received

There probably isn't a bar in the city that offers as breathtaking of a view as does Moonlight. The panorama of all three of Atlanta's skyscraper centers is clearly visible, along with the historical architecture of Ponce City Market. The crowd is mix of tourists and locals in their 20s and 30s. The cocktails are solid. Food is decent, nothing to rave about, but again, hopefully nobody is here for the food. The lobster roll was very bread heavy and the useless dab of caviar was just a wasteful decoration. Yet, the atmosphere of the place, situated in the beautiful Forth hotel makes Moonlight an incredible spot for drinks.

Having dined at Elektra already this weekend, we wanted to try something different. Hostess started with some type of unposted dress coded nonsense because my son was in a hoodie (which he agreed to remove) before we were granted access. Arrive inside and it's standing room only at the bar - all seating areas are clearly designed for large groups and they're all occupied, as were the handful of actual seats at the bar. Proceed to order numerous dishes from the menu to-go. Bar tenders, in fairness, were very pleasant btw. Nowhere to wait except standing there like idiots until bartender says we can sit in a reserved section for a bit. Nasty waitress comes by soon after to usher us away, despite conflicting instructions from the bar. Anyway, insult to injury when it appears I've been charged a service charge and a gratuity charge and the dishes were small and mostly not great. The wings were ok, but the grilled cheese was gross, the flatbread was minuscule, the cheese plate was meh. Overall, between the mostly rude to indifferent staff attitude, lack of seating, and poor quality of food this place deserves a pass. ,

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!

A simple, civilized "I'm sorry, but we have a dress code" would have done the job. Instead, she chose theatrical inhospitality and condescension. For the record, I was wearing Prada platform sneakers, a Cartier watch, Chanel earrings, Fendi, baguette, and a French-terry top.
