    Lychee Martini.

    Visited this restaurant for their private Grand Opening event. There were many passed hors d'oeuvres and desserts available I like the idea of the hot pot station, but unfortunately the broth was cold almost immediately after it hit my bowl and it lacked flavor. The signature cocktails were both very good and there was a violinist on site playing classic and modern hits. I must say that the majority of the staff was very pleasant and I appreciated the manager and PR person taking the time to stop by and thank us for coming. Overall, this event was nicely done and I had a good time. Looking forward to coming back and trying some of the regular menu items.

    I had breakfast here three times during my stay at the Atlanta W Downtown. The service was phenomenal and the servers were extremely nice, they remembered my name each day I came in and greeted me every time. For $10-15 you can get a pretty decent breakfast here, as a platinum elite member I had a free breakfast included so I tried to sample a few of the dishes. - Egg White Omelette - Omelette was great but I wish I had asked if I could've gotten a different side than the potatoes. Eating the potatoes made me feel like I had offset the healthiness of the omelette. -Avocado Toast - Probably my favorite breakfast option I got during my stay. Unfortunately the half of the toast I received was pretty severely burnt but I was too much in a rush to ask for a new one. The half that wasn't burnt was extremely delicious, the avocado had the perfect amount of acidity to it. - Great Wake Bowl - Probably the least favorite dish I tried during my stay. The ham made the dish a little too salty for my taste and the egg was room temperature, I would have preferred a warmer egg given the rest of the dish was warm (my personnel preference). Overall pretty decent breakfast at the hotel for not too steep of the price. Would definitely eat here again if I stay at the W.

    Saw reviews before and has been wanting to give it a try. Very mediocre food but friendly service, only reason for a 2 star. Also, validation for valet parking (this is a restaurant in the W hotel) expires after 2 hrs but no one tells you that prior to parking with valet. So ended up paying $15 for parking so just FYI. I don't see this restaurant lasting for more than a year. If so, it's probably just because it's part of the hotel. It was a disappointment in summary.

    Absolutely in awe of this beautiful cafe and bakery…read more I've visited the smaller Saint Germain but visiting this location at the Interlock was truly an experience. Before heading into Puttshack to celebrate my friends birthday I decided to take a peek inside of Saint Germain and pickup a treat or two. I've previously had pastries and coffees from Saint Germain and didn't have anything in mind, just greed lol. Let me say, I was so blown away by the selection. Everything was so beautiful! Pastries, chocolates and macarons of all colors and flavors, it was a feast for my eyes. I didn't even know where to start so I just randomly chose a dozen chocolates for her, 3 for another one of my girls and 2 macarons for myself. I wanted to get some pastries to take home but the employee assisting me said that they wouldn't last an hour. Before I left I ended up getting some of the French rum pastries that I love and never remember the name of - I love/hate that they had them displayed at the register, they know what they're doing! The selection of sweets, the customer service and the beautiful interior of the bakery really make this such a special place. Such a sweet treat no matter what you leave with.

    I had a coffee and a key lime tart. Both were good. The coffee was fragrant and came in a big paper…read morecup. The key lime has a slight tang, and just right amount of sugar. It was small but I don't need the extra calories. It isn't 5 Star because they used 1 box for a small jet line which I was going to have in front of the shop. Wish they would invest in small plate instead of a big pink box enough for 3 tarts. I would come back again but maybe I'll bring my own plate.

    X Peach Coffee Roasters... we thought we were in the wrong place as we walked into this…read moreclothing/etc. store. But nope- it was all good. And the coffee was all good. Excellent cappuccinos to be had for all here.

    I like this place and I would make coffee runs here, but it is not my scene to hang out and spend…read moretime here. When I look for a coffee shop to newly get addicted to, environment is very important to me. So the concept of this place -- Store where there is quality coffee in the corner. It would be amazing to have the opposite -- an amazing coffee shop with quality things to buy. Until that happens, I'll appreciate this though. They focus on New Orleans/Louisiana style drinks for their signatures, but they have all the lattees and fancy macciatos available for the coffee snobs like me. I enjoyed their New Orleans style coffee and it was a good blend of spices yet not too strong. My cousin got a cappaccino which had pretty coffee art. This isn't the place to go if you're on a type of diet needing to alter ingredients to make it fit. Just throwing that out there. Their New Orleans style coffee comes pre-made. They have other options, but don't try to get their signature items. Note, they do have seating. Like one table and some bar stools, but that counts right? I don't believe it was near an outlet to do some work, but it wasn't too busy. I would ask a study group to meet me here, but it would be risky since there is not a lot of options if another group is already there.

There is a lot of seating, lots of savory and sweet food options and of course a variety of drinks. I got a Vietnamese coffee and the chicken curry bun. Both were delicious! Comparing the prices to Los Angeles, getting both of these items for $10 combined was amazing!

    Oh this is a bakery that's worth fighting downtown Atlanta traffic & multiple Peachtree roads!…read more We came for boba teas after a show under the big top, and we discovered so much more! This is a bakery with a super cool selection of international cakes and collectibles. Japanese cream cakesC croissants, sweet-filled buns, on & on. It looks like quite a few items sell out, so it can be hit or miss if you have a favorite. We got our boba teas, a tiramisu, strawberry cream cakes to satisfy the sweet tooth(s), but I was so excited to see a chicken korean BBQ sandwich that I had to get one! OH-EM-GEE!! I will be back to the sandwich alone!! It didn't take too long for the hot sandwich despite it being nearly closing time on a Saturday. The staff was helpful, friendly, and very accommodating. The diner itself isn't fancy, and the tables could use some consistent cleaning and clearing. You get plastic tableware and napkins on your own. But it was warm in a cold evening and had plenty of places to sit in the evening. I can imagine it gets pretty packed for lunch. Not sure.
