    Smooth operator
    Heidi T.

    Might be my new cheers! Tucked away in the Arts District, this gem is eclectic and fun. There's on-site and street parking. To park in their parking lot, there's a $20 charge. It's a little annoying, but the convenience makes up for it. I made a reservation online. It's a small, intimate space with limited seating, so I'm glad we did. The ambiance is relaxed with a hint of bop. There are couches, chairs, benches, and stools for seating. A DJ kept the energy up. And our server (co-owner) was phenomenal. Knowledgeable on the drinks and very attentive. We had the Mr. Jones, Smooth Operator, and then the last round I asked for a Manhattan (best Manhattan I've had in a long time). The drinks are a little pricey, but well made and super boozy! Worth the price tag. We also asked for a drink not on the menu. It wasn't to our liking. The owner not only got us a new drink, but asked what the bartender could've done to make it better. I love that! If Covid precautions are a concern this likely isn't the spot for you. It's close quarters, and none of the employees wear masks. I'll definitely be back though.

    Parlor girl. What's going on? Not you serving my $30 fried lobster tail on a plastic plate with plastic cutlery?!?! What happened to the sexy intimate cozy vibe you created here? We used to love it here. Corners are cut ambiance is sparse. Cafe tables from IKEA and wrinkly table cloths just won't cut it. We love that you've expanded but we just cont justify coming here for an experience that no longer exists. Please please please reevaluate and get back to what made us fall in love with you in the first place. We love you. We miss you. We want the old you back. P.S. Our bartender and waitress were amazing and very accommodating. Outstanding service. Thank you!

    The Unbothered

    I am a fan of all things black, grown, and sexy and that is the epitome of Parlor. The staff is so welcoming and friendly and the space is very cozy. Feels familiar. I have enjoyed every drink I have had. My absolute fav is The Unbothered. I've recently gone and the displays of art is also such a nice touch. A wonderful lounge! Only critique would be the parking situation isn't ideal. If you can't find street parking, I believe the lot was $20 the night I went and seating can be hard if it's crowded, which tends to fill quickly in the weekends. But they are on Open Table, so maybe that could be combated. Oh, and the music love it.

    Finally this sexy, chic, pre-prohibition bar has arrived! The space is small and intimate, and they play a mixture of jazz and house/lounge music overhead which creates a relaxing vibe. I ordered a Mr. Jones cocktail, a Cuvee du Merlet, and an Old Fashioned Cupcake. The Mr. Jones had a nice peach flavor that complimented the bourbon and the Old Fashioned Cupcake also had bourbon infused in it and tasted amazing! The Cuvee du Merlet was similar to a Whiskey sour, but a lot smoother. Alphonzo (the owner or one of the owners) served me and was very warm and welcoming. This place is off to a great start so I hope they keep the momentum going and maintain the same level of service and customer satisfaction :)

    The perfect cocktails!

    Absolutely one of the few places I venture out too during Covid19 when I need a sense of normality when hanging out. They do go the extra mile to keep you as safe as possible during this pandemic and ensure that you have a great time. Truly a gem!

    Small but mighty. A great place to have some craft cocktails and chill. The crowd is mature so it's a not too rowdy. Will definitely return.

    What a cool place. Discovered it incidentally while in downtown Atlanta. Upscale with a dress code…read morethankfully. The entrance code can be obtained from their website or local hotel concierges. Dial the number on the antique phone and the door magically opens. The staff super friendly and helpful. The bartenders are the best, clearly passionate about their work. I highly encourage you to try one or several of their signature cocktails. I sampled the Left Bank Martini and Vesper. As expected they are fully stocked with Pappy Bourbon, hard to find Amaro Noni. Ask a bartender about the ice block. The place is spacious unlike other speakeasys I've been to. Lots of niche areas with couch reservations, pool table available. No time for a cigar but that is on my list when I return. Food available from their upstairs sister restaurant.

I sat at the bar and had a little light banter with the bartender who is a brother looking to be in his late 30's-early 40's. When I asked about two fruity cocktails from the menu, he flat-out said he wasn't going to make them. That alone was off-putting. Trying to move forward, I asked what he specialized in, and he said he'd "come up with something." I agreed--but very clearly stated: no rum, because my body does not react well to it. After watching him make drinks for people who ordered after me, he eventually handed me a cocktail I never even saw him prepare. That already raised a flag. I took a few sips, and sure enough--my stomach immediately started reacting the exact way it does when I've had rum. When I asked what alcohol he used, he said, "I don't even know." That response alone tells you everything you need to know. At that point, I reminded him I specifically said no rum. Instead of taking accountability, he tried to argue and backtrack. Let me be clear--when a customer tells you not to use a specific liquor, you don't ignore it, guess, or "forget." That's basic service and basic respect. This situation completely threw off my evening, as I had plans afterward and ended up feeling sick. To make matters worse, I reached out to management and received no response. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the end of the day, this wasn't just a bad drink--it was careless service. This staff does not prioritize customer care, and that's a problem. If you choose to visit, be very direct, pay close attention, and don't assume your requests will be respected.

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!
