Accidental find that worked out quite well! I was planning to meet my friend at a nearby restaurant, but we decided to checkout Napolean's instead. I stared with a cup of smoked chicken corn chowder. Very hearty soup. It was served warm, and I would have preferred it to be hotter. The fried shrimp platter had a well-seasoned breading and were a nice size. Our waiter, Marty, was a sweetheart and hard a great playful attitude. Ample free parking available in the parking lot. I would definitely return especially to hear the live music.

The Flying Saucers playing some amazing surf music. Wow!!

Delicious food and great fun when there is live music. We came to watch the bands but ended up having a delicious dinner too. My wife had some sort of Thai coconut shrimp bowl. I had the Mediterranean salmon. We enjoyed both. I love that they have Alagash White on tap too. Highly recommended.

Oreo Cheesecake!!!

I'm not sure how I didn't get more photos... actually yes I am. My food was so delicious as soon as it hit the table, I devoured it! We came to Napoleon's to hear Ansley Stewart. She put on an amazing performance! For my entree, I had the smoked wings in the house sauce and the bacon blue cheese tater tots. Both were amazing!!! The sauce was so good and I'm sure I was eating the wings as though I was at home eating them in private. I also shared a margarita pitcher with 2 others and it was more than enough. The restaurant is ample parking and I believe they have live music on a regular. We reserved a table ahead of time and it was perfect. I would definitely return.

First time trying this place out after driving by several times. We were looking for a laid back place that had music so decided on Napoleon's. We had the burgers which weren't bad nor great. I was shocked when I asked for mayonnaise that it came in a cup of about a tablespoon and charged $1! Who charges extra for a regular condiment!! The band was really good and had a good time. I'll be back but not going to order anything that requires a condiment.

Great food and service. Thursday's they have a live band. Watched Atlanta's own, Michelle Malone.

Menu

Napoleon's is an Italian restaurant located in a small shopping plaza in Decatur. I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and enjoyed the patio. The restaurant has affordable Italian staples and wine. The decor is trendy but the restaurant has a nice mom and pop vibe. We shared bottles of champagne($20-30 per bottle) and artichoke dip. The dip seemed to be freshly made, not your chain restaurant version. They have a large patio that is great for groups. There is also a music venue attached to it for life music fans. Service was great!

We had a really pleasant beer and lunch here. All the wait staff was really friendly and the food was good. The atmosphere was just what we wanted - a dark but clean and pleasant bar. It was late afternoon and the crowd was older which was nice. We will be back.

Fish n Chips

I was in the area hungry decided to stop for lunch. Scenery at the entrance was pleasant. I was seated and my drink order was taken once I sat down. I really liked that. I reviewed the menu and my waiter seemed very knowledgeable on the menu. I placed my order fish n chips. My food came out at a decent time but unfortunately it wasn't good. The fries were fried to hard and the fish wasn't fried long enough the outside was crispy but the inside was mushy. It also came with coleslaw. I kinda picked over my food and felt I wasted my money. I paid $20 and I will not be back.

Leon's is a new fav in Decatur! We came for a friends birthday and the food was phenomenal!…read more Like every other spot in downtown Decatur, you just have to know your preferred lots/streets for parking in (not sharing my secrets for best parking lol) so definitely give yourself time to park and walk over. Their reservation system was down when we went so we ended up waiting about 20-30 min for a table. I shared their fries bucket for the app and I had the crispy confit chicken for dinner. We ended up paying extra for more sauces and some were a hit like the aoli and the sesame soy, but the hot sauce was just a normal Tabasco like sauce so I didn't think it was worth paying for. I had the crispy chicken confit for my dinner and it was amazing!! No notes!! The pork belly that my fiance got was also super tender and flavorful. Overall it's a nicer restaurant but I'd definitely be back!

This place is located just off of the square in Decatur in a converted automotive shop (I think…read morethey repaired upholstery back in the day) . The renovation created a cozy spot that compliments the Decatur dining scene. The have a two great outdoor spaces that daylight on both Ponce De Leon Avenue and Church Street. The food is solid! We like cheese stuffed pepadew peppers with basil and balsamic and their terrific fries with multiple dipping sauces for appetizers. The menu changes often in a good way. We have enjoyed beef and lamb burgers, short ribs, shrimp & Grits, trout, etc not to mention their great desserts. Service must be good as this is one of our goto places to take friends visiting from out of town.

Our server, Trey, was awesome. He was attentive, friendly, and really helped make the experience smooth from start to finish. One thing I loved about Argosy is the ambiance. It can go either way--you can keep it super casual or dress it up a bit for a night out. I also noticed they have karaoke on certain nights, which I definitely plan on coming back for. We started with cocktails and ordered the Rosé Cadillac (I took a picture of the menu for details), and it was really good. As a self-proclaimed lightweight, I appreciated that it was enjoyable without being too overwhelming. For food, we split a wood-fired pizza--the "Boss Hogg"--and each got a six-piece order of lemon pepper wings. The wings were okay, but the pizza? Absolutely slammin. Looking back, I definitely should've taken some home. Overall, Argosy feels like one of those spots that works for any occasion--date night, casual hangout, or group outing. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu and bring some friends along.

I loved the atmosphere, but be careful if you're wearing heels because the courtyard is pretty rocky! We started with the bread and arancini. The bread was good, but I think it would've been better if the rosemary was baked into it instead of just scattered on top. The arancini was easily my favorite appetizer! For my entrée, I had the black spaghetti, which was pretty good. I especially liked the texture of the pasta. We also ordered dessert, and I was pleasantly surprised by the selection! I ended up going with the pumpkin cheesecake, which was amazing! My wife had the toffee cake, which was just okay. It tasted more like something you'd make at home rather than what I'd expect from a restaurant. Overall, we had a really good experience. Loved the vibe, especially the outdoor courtyard, and would definitely come back!

Update: Big shoutout to My Parents' Basement for truly…read morelistening and taking swift action. They've committed to removing the Harry Potter pinball machine and showed that they're willing to listen, grow, and stand by their community. It means so much to see a space not just say they're inclusive, but actually live it. I seriously appreciate it and can't wait to be back. Original: I've been a huge fan of My Parents' Basement for a long time. The food is incredible, the beer list is excellent, the pinball lineup is (usually) fantastic, and the whole vibe is such a great haven for nerdy folks like me. It's one of the few places where I've genuinely felt at home -- where I believed I could show up fully as myself. That's why this hurts so much to write. MPB proudly positions itself as an inclusive, safe space -- "All Are Welcome" is literally part of the mural on the wall. But recently, they installed a Harry Potter pinball machine, and as a trans person, this felt like a deep betrayal. The creator of that franchise continues to use the wealth and platform built by those products to actively harm trans people. Every sale, every license, every new machine feeds into that system. This isn't a theoretical harm -- this is material. It funds the people working to take away our rights and our safety. It's hard to describe the heartbreak of walking into what's supposed to be a safe space and seeing that machine. It sends a message, whether intentionally or not, that some of us don't matter as much when profit or popularity are on the line. I'm sharing this not to tear MPB down -- I love this place, and I want to believe in it. I want to believe that they care about the safety and dignity of all their patrons, not just in words but in action. I hope they'll reconsider this decision. I genuinely hope they'll listen. Until then, I can't keep coming back. And that breaks my heart.

Help yourself with water & flatware, napkins, condiments etc. Very casual. We ordered the shrimp & grits for me, and a burger for the hubby. He loved his burger, very good portions, his side salad was fresh and also good sized. His burger tall, generous ingredients inside - tomato, onions, 2 slices of pickles on top. What's most important was that this burger did not fall apart when biting into it. Especially so difficult to achieve for a tall burger. My grits were good texture, I didn't like that the grits were very salty, something must have gone wrong in the kitchen. The shrimp were also salty on top of that, there were cheese. My entire dish was so salty, I drank 3 tall cups of water and was full halfway through my grits but I didn't want to take it home cos I know I wouldn't finish it when brought home. I hope they fix the level of salt otherwise, I love the consistency and texture - has some bite to the grits.
