What instantly blew us away was the incredible diversity of the menu--it's rare to find a place that seamlessly bridges Mediterranean, Latin, and Japanese flavors, but they pull it off flawlessly. The absolute standouts of the night were the birria ravioli (a genius, melt-in-your-mouth fusion) and the patatas bravas, which were perfectly crispy and flavorful. Make sure you save room for dessert because they do not disappoint. Both the chocolate cake and the tres leches were spectacular--rich, perfectly textured, and the ultimate end to a fantastic meal. Incredible food, great vibes, and a menu that makes you want to come back to try everything else. Beyond the amazing fusion menu, the service at Swanee Social really elevated our entire evening. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive without being overbearing. Our server was deeply knowledgeable about the diverse menu, helping guide our choices and ensuring our dishes arrived perfectly paced. Even with a busy dining room, we never had to hunt anyone down for water refills or checking in. It's rare to find a spot where the hospitality matches the high quality of the kitchen, but Swanee Social nails it. We will definitely be returning!

It seems pretty weak when I can get a regular cocktail at Mellow Mushroom for the same price or even cheaper. The mango slushy was good and seemed a little bit stronger.

The Fire and Grace pizza truck is amazing.

They have a few TVs for viewing and had a live belly dancer briefly perform. They didn't have a DJ. It seems like they were playing music from a music playlist, which was a mix of RnB and Hip Hop. Their menu has food, drink, and hookah options. They had nothing on the menu except for Suya; so, we didn't have food. The drinks were pretty good and reasonably priced, given that they were served in plastic cups. The hookah was pretty good and lasted awhile. Of note, the bartender couldn't take cash because she didn't have enough change in the register to return; the only option was card payment.

The sign would advise they open at 5, but doors wouldn't open until nearly an hour later. They would frequently do grocery runs to Walmart then charge you the same amount for items such as wings that were clearly different and finally arrived right before they close the lounge. So you literally had to box them, then pay your bill to close..... With that said, The recent visit I made last week was MUCH better. Decor of this locale is real loungy and sleek. Nice ambiance for a Gwinnett experience...The staff is very pleasant, and the Siracha wings are amazing!!! Presentation was so simple but nice... My friend got another chicken dish, that kinda looked like a Cordon Bleu, and that was quite tasty as well. Drinks are fair, (tiny portions with ice), and the music is good. Mix of African/Reggae/HipHop. In all, I recommend this place if the consistency stays like this....but I had to be honest about my previous experiences.

"There's something magical about rooftops. You feel like you're in 'Mary Poppins."…read moreGeorge Clarke There really is something special about being on a rooftop on a perfect summer evening, and it's great to have it right in downtown Sugar Hill. I would like to say I planned the perfect date, but as some of the best things in life, this was just an impromptu visit to cap off an already great evening. Outside of being on the rooftop, the bar itself is upscale yet approachable, service was fast and friendly. Being a bit of a self engrandized home bartender I'm a bit critical when out of my home lab, but their Smoked Old Fashioned wasn't bad. ("Wasn't bad" really means very good.") While I don't love the prices and hate paying a cover charge, when you throw in live music, a great vibe, and a view, I can't really complain. The owner made an announcement that whoever tipped the band $10 would get a free drink, and since most drinks were over $15 I thought that was cool on many levels. Will definitely be back to The Rooftop!

We walked around and finally ran into a waitress who told us to sit anywhere we wished inside or outside. The only area festive was inside a closed igloo and no heaters were on outdoors which was just a tad too cool for me despite the super nice weather that day. It would have been so to sit outside but without the warmth of the heaters we headed inside. We placed our order and explained we were just there for a pre-dinner drink and wanted to check out the venue so we didn't leave our tab open but we were quickly served the fabulous taking drinks on their menu(s). The Old Fashioned was on the regular menu and the Russian was on their seasonal tabletop menu. Server was very nice and took photos for some ladies we met. The only reason I can't give them a 5 star is they claim they are big on hospitality but yet we were not acknowledged upon arrival. Many restaurants and even some retail stores have a way to ensure they say hello/welcome immediately when you enter and without a hostess - the mindset should be that the bar or wait staff have a way to immediately say hello or welcome so those who have never been feel welcomed as well as those who frequently come. It would be nice to have a more festive decor for the holidays but that didn't affect my review; just a statement to say that the entire Sugar Hill area was pumping and themed with the holiday spirit then we walked in the only area decorated was not even accessible nor was it offered as an option to enjoy.

How do you ruin Chilean sea bass? Come here to find out. It got an Asian treatment covered in a sauce so salty that it was gag-inducing. Supposed to be served with bok choy. Kitchen ran out and just decided to sub it (without informing us first) with broccolini soaked in a pool of soy sauce at the bottom of the plate. The ravioli I had was so over-cooked that even the steak knife had a hard time cutting through it and again the salt was used too liberally on this dish as well.

The experience was awesome and very fun. Poker night is free to play but you get bonus chips if you buy beers. I got a flight of beers and got bonus chips. The poker night was very fun and the players were very friendly and helpful. I'm kind of a noob when it comes to poker so it was encouraging to play amongst such kind players. The beers from the flight were all good but my favorite was the dark beer which had a chocolatey taste to it. 5 solid stars for Elixir Brew and I highly recommend coming to the Poker Night and enjoying some brewskies and friendly atmosphere at the same time. Thank you!!

The seafood tower is a true showstopper: lobster, crab, oysters, and all the right accompaniments, beautifully presented and genuinely fresh. You can taste the care in the sourcing. The crab claws were tender and sweet, and the sauces complemented rather than overpowered -- the old, honest way, just as it should be. The space itself is bright, airy, and modern, with a relaxed coastal feel. It's spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed, and the outdoor seating with open windows in warmer weather is a wonderful touch -- inviting, easy, and made for lingering meals. Service deserves special mention. Our server was genuinely kind, attentive, and never rushed, striking that rare balance where you feel well taken care of without being hovered over. The kind of hospitality that lets the food speak for itself. All in all, Seaside Oyster Bar feels like a little seaside escape tucked into Suwanee -- honest seafood, thoughtful presentation, and a relaxed elegance that keeps you coming back. A well-earned 5 stars

They did apologize for how small they were and gave 2 extra but they needed double they were so tiny. It would of taken 3-4 wings to equal one from other places like Uptown Wings right down the street. They definitely need a new provider! Thankfully they had good flavor with good blue cheese.
