It is found tucked behind the building with only a small, letter-sized paper sign marking the entrance. No flashy signage, no obvious storefront, which adds to the appeal if you're into that kind of hunt. Walking up to it late at night can be a little intimidating but it is well lit which I greatly appreciated! Once inside, the space is dimly lit and small, which makes for a genuinely intimate setting. I'd say it's good for a quieter, more conversational vibe rather than a loud night out. We went with the bartender's choice: pick a base liquor, then two words to describe what you're after. I went with vodka and "slightly sweet, refreshing," for $18. The bartender nailed the brief but it wasn't a drink I'd think about again or specifically order by name. Solid execution, forgettable flavor. Service was the real standout. Our bartender was excellent at walking us through the concept and translating vague requests into something that actually worked. That, plus the atmosphere, is enough to bring me back to see what else is on the menu since we made it there just in time for last call so I ended up only having one drink.

All of the drinks I've had (espresso martini, margarita, cosmo, and redline) are very strong! I recommend ordering off the signature drink section (on the front part of the menu) because they are crafted and taste better than the generic bar drinks (on the back bottom part of the menu). My husband loves the raspberry sour. The place has indoor and outdoor seating with ambient lighting. The decor and vibes are nice, mature, and upscale. There are two single stall bathrooms available for use. The hours are unique, so I'd keep that in mind if you're planning on spending time here (Tues-Sat 5-10pm). Great place for parties of 2-6ish! We have enjoyed starting and ending our nights of drinking here.

Not even sure where to begin to describe the awesomeness that is the Manhattan. Well first off,…read moreit's dimly lit with some retro lamps, light fixtures and scattered Xmas lights. There seems to not be any open space and the walls and ceiling are both pretty much covered with trinkets. There's little 8" vinyl records hanging from the ceiling, along with beads and various other indescribable pieces of art thrown in here and there. Mismatched tables, chairs, booths and couches are tucked throughout the inside of the bar. There's also a straight up bar seating area, which I totally love and is the best place to chat with random local folks. Part of the charm of the Manhattan is that you can totally go in by yourself, sit at the bar and end of meeting lots of interesting people. I was so glad to see that this had not changed a bit since I had been away for 6 years. Second only to my love of dives bars, is popcorn. And this popcorn machine really comes through after a long night drinking in a little dive like this. Even though there are windows, this bar is always dark (just how I like em) and you just lose track of all time. I was just there during winter break & was pretty jazzed to see a ton of hot rum and whisky cocktails. Perfect since it was super cold out. The Manhattan was always one of my fav & deliciously divey downtown drinking spots and so glad to see it still is.

If anything, it looks a little sketchy from the outside given the bars on the window, but it's not a sketchy place at all. Believe me when I say this. I stopped in on a Monday night for a nightcap. It was nice and quiet, which is exactly what I was looking for that particular evening, the following day being a travel day for me. As you can see from my pics, it's a nice little place. Drink prices were very reasonable, and the bartending was very good, too. I will happily stop in again when I return to Athens next year. Cheers!

We were told two hour wait, but only ended up waiting about 45 min before we got the text. The experience was fun having to "sneak" through the fake door and into a fun, moody, and eclectic lounge room. The bartenders truly made the night - Harris is wonderful, fun, chatty, and made all our drinks on a whim with almost nothing straight from the menu. We would tell Harris the type of drink and strength, and he made the most incredible cocktails throughout our time there. Truly showed that he's a mixologist and not just a bartender. We so treated ourselves to the caviar and the dessert bites. Would only recommend that the chips be salt and vinegar as the dish was missing some flavor, but the dessert bites were incredible. Will absolutely return for another night soon!

The vibe inside is very Eden meets 90s lounge, and the music is R&B chill. I was jamming very song so that's a +++. We were greeted right away and service was like that all night. The staff was the best part! They were friendly, attentive, and all in costume (which was cute). I revived drink recommendations and tried 2. Both were good. Purple Rain (smoother) and the Blackberry Lemon Drop (sharper). There are many more that look delicious, too, so I'll try more one day. We started with the collard green dip appetizer and that was our favorite food item. It was served with seasoned (and warm!) pita chips. I only wish it was a little thicker. Our entrees had good portions and came out hot. I enjoyed the jerk salmon overall but wish the meat itself had its own flavor too. The jerk did it all in this case. The collard greens were good to me (my guy wished for less salt/seasoning). My guy had the lamb chops, greens, and mashed potatoes. He was okay with everything but not in love with anything but that dip! All in all I think we will return to try more of the menu and I'll certainly be back to try the cocktails.

Our first Uber Eats order on 08/27 was never received by the restaurant after we waited over an hour. We gave them another chance on 08/29. The first driver waited an hour and was told the restaurant never accepted the order in time, and ask if I could reorder it. The second driver was then told they didn't have my order because I had supposedly canceled it. I called the restaurant, explained the situation calmly to Noah who advised he knew exactly of the situation and was transferred to the manager. His response? "I don't even know what's going on. I just walked in the door." He then insisted it was "obviously an Uber Eats problem, not an us problem" and condescendingly suggested that "maybe we should try another ordering platform." So, we should find another platform because your restaurant failed to accept the order? Ironically, another employee could be heard telling the manager that multiple Uber Eats drivers were experiencing the same issue. The manager then abruptly hung up on me. Three hours after placing the order, we finally received our food--with half of the order missing. Technology issues happen. Mistakes happen. What is unacceptable is the complete lack of accountability and the way the customer was treated. Add in small portions and food that was honestly underwhelming, and there is simply nothing here that justifies the experience. I wanted to support this business. I really did. But good food cannot compensate for poor customer service, disrespect, and refusing to take responsibility when something clearly goes wrong. I would not recommend this restaurant, particularly to anyone relying on delivery.
