    Tequila flight
    Stephen M.

    Came here on a whim with a friend--the two of us wanting a quick bite and a drink. Pata Negra is found on the bottom floor of an apartment building which can be tricky to find if you're not familiar with the layout. We made our way inside, validated our parking then got straight to ordering. We started with the tequila flight which came with bite size pieces of chocolate, cheese, and guava--all of which paired nicely with each taster. I ordered the tuna tostada which was incredibly flavorful and a ceviche (I forgot what it's called on the menu) and it was equally as delicious. My friend and I both left happy and will definitely be back

    Came here on a Thursday night to try this place and it was small! I have always driven by this place so we decided to come check it out and it was small but cute. The door was hard to find as an entrance, I believe they share the residential building so we came in through the patio. Service was great and there wasn't a wait so we just grabbed a seat at the bar. Based on the bartenders recommendations we started with some drinks and my friend grabbed the passion fruit drink with mezcal and I grabbed their signature "Pata negra" that had sage and palo santo and some lemon. It was delicious but very Smokey and mezcal flavored so I switched with my friend since hers wasn't as Smokey. The ceviche was good, pretty spicy and our bartender/server was very attentive. Overall, wonderful date spot and good food, I will definitely be back to try their dinner!

    Aguachile de carne

    Came here on a Thursday evening. I didn't have a reservation but the staff found a table for my group. I absolutely loved my food. I told my server I wanted steak and he reccomended the Aguachile de carne. I would definitely come back for that.

    Fish tacos

    Pata Negra is located in the Arya building on Peachtree rd. When you arrive, give the hostess your tag number to have your parking validated. This establishment is very beautiful. The ambience is dark and upscale. I made reservations, but they weren't needed. It was mostly empty at 7 on a Friday. I started off with a conquistadora. I swapped out the mezcal for tequila and it was delicious. To eat, I got the croquettas that contained crab and shrimp, fish tacos and a side of rice. The croquettas were absolutely delectable! I was a bit disappointed with the fish tacos. They had the consistency of frozen fish sticks and the fish itself was bland. The toppings were good though. The side of rice was also bland. While the service was nice and I enjoyed myself overall, I was disappointed by the lack of flavor in some of the dishes.

    Visited here for dinner with my girlfriend. The service was great. Loved the ambiance. The food was pretty good. We had the guacamole and salsa with homemade tortillas and croquettas to start. For entree, I had the poblano pollo which was very good! Drinks were also tasty, had the pata negra. It was quite sour, lemony but they were able to sweeten it a bit and it was good!

    Poblanos de Pollo - Chicken Enchiladas

    My friend recommended this spot for lunch and it is so good! I will definitely be back. Reservations: Unbeknownst to me, my friend made a reservation but I got there before here and grabbed a table. I got seated immediately. I can see this place being popular for dinner, so would suggest making reservations if planning to come later in the day. Parking: There is a garage with ample parking AND it's validated! Make sure to grab your license plate number before walking in because you'll need to input it into the kiosk at the hostess stand for validation. Food: Oh. My. Gosh. The food here is so flavorful. We ordered chips and queso to start and we could not stop eating that. I ordered the Tacos Arabesque, which were the most delicious chicken tacos. My friends ordered the Poblanas de Pollo, which was equally delicious (I sampled theirs) and its chicken enchiladas. I was going to get that but wasn't sure about the spice level. It wasn't too spicy and that's what I'm getting next time I go back! Drinks: We all ordered the Dahlia, but two of us weren't drinking so they were able to make that into a mocktail for us. So tasty and refreshing. I'm not sure I'll venture away from that drink because I liked it so much! Vibe: The staff is so friendly and welcoming. They are happy to assist with recommendations. Our host and waiter was Tomas, and shoutout to him - he's great! The atmosphere indoors is giving dark and sexy. They do have outdoor seating as well, but it is right next to the street so might be a bit loud with the cars driving by. All in all, really enjoyed my time here and looking forward to my next visit!

    Poblanas De Pollo

    The food was very unique and the service was great. When we came in, the music was either not on, very low volume, or not evenly spaced throughout which sort of made it awkward coming in. Our favorite items on the menu were the ceviche, croquetas, tacos, and enchiladas. I would also suggest a rechargeable table lamp as our table was located in a very dark portion of the restaurant and we weren't able to see our food very well.

    The ambiance of this place is very romantic great for a date and the servers were very nice. They accommodate parking. The food was fast and tasted amazing and fresh

    The presentation was great. The food was good, but nothing wowing and worth 5 stars to me. And factoring in the price puts my review at a solid 4 stars. They had complimentary chicharrones for the table to share. It was tasty and crunchy but nothing spectacular to call out. The table shared the oro verde guacamole ($18), salsa huasteca ($6), and I believe also the panucho de cochinita pibil ($27). These were good and some more unique than others (the latter), but is it worth the price to portion ratio -- look at my pictures for reference sizes??? The hubs had the sopa del dia ($12) and aguachile de carne encenizado ($30). His soup was a rather watery, green soup with chicken chunks and potato/starchy bites. It was good, but I don't think we'd get it again. The main dish was interesting in its taste appeal and flavor. This was something quite unique and pretty worth the price ish. The beef was tender with the portobello tasting delicious. The habero ashes (really black sauce) everything sat upon was a creative endeavor by the chef. I still can't pinpoint what exactly it is or how to really describe it. I had the temporada de lluvias ($38). The scallops were scrumptious and so tasty with the flavors of the risotto. The risotto itself was interesting. It was huitlacoche to be specific, and I really dug the flavors and unique ingredients. The risotto was rich in flavors and had corn, mushrooms, and other tidbits that came together really well. For dessert, we all shared the dama nocturna ($15). The ice cream, mousse, cake, etc. all worked so well together to play on fun textures, flavors, and sensations. Some of the portion sizes were a wee bit on the tiny side. Like the chocolate cake thingy (dessert) was greatly presented and tasted amazing, but it was on the smaller side. Park in the Arya (upscale apartment) parking structure. The restaurant validates parking for up to 3 hours.

    A wonderful intimate and tasty option in Atlanta. The food is authentic and inventive without being over-engineered, and though the menu isn't large it has enough options to fit most tastes. Every dish our group tried was cooked to perfection. The service was superb as well with numerous wait staff ensuring our small group had everything we needed. Our drinks never went dry, food was delivered promptly and the staff answered all of our questions about the menu. The ambiance is great for an intimate date night or a small team dinner (which was our occasion) It is a little higher on the price scale but reasonable given the service and quality.

    Pata Negra (tall one) and La Tapatia - they can make it spicy (yum!)
    Danielle S.

    What a fun new place with authentic food from Jalisco, Mexico. The restaurant is decorated in a very moody way, with dim lighting and an interesting mix of music. The service was great, and the manager came to check on us several times. The food is hard to predict from the menu, but the Tlayuda de Piedad was like a pizza with black bean paste sauce with different veggies in every bite. The chef's special salad was an arugula salad with citrus that was perfection. I'm not an enchilada person usually, but the poblanos de pollo were really good and the crema was so fresh. We loved our cocktails (La Tapatia, spicy, and Pata Negra). The garage parking is validated and the restaurant is inside the entrance for the apartment complex. They have a patio, but it's right on Peachtree, so it's very loud out there with cars whizzing by.

    Second time enjoying the brunch here. Excellent, fresh food made from scratch, quality ingredients. Great service and ambience.

    One of the best new restaurants in Atlanta for sure!!! Pata negra is such a beautiful spot with fantastic food. They validate parking as well which is a huge plus! We had a pretty large group come in for dinner but the service was great and fast. The drinks came in mini cauldrons which was super cute! I didn't try any when I went, but my friends who did all said they liked them. I had the aguachile de carne for dinner and I really enjoyed how the meat was cooked and the sauce. The enchiladas were also pretty decent, but I don't think mole is really my thing. I then had a dessert that was chocolate, passion fruit, and guava and it was pretty good too! Overall I'd definitely come back for a nice date night or girls night, and the only con I can think of is it was a bit expensive for the portions. But other than that, pata negra was fantastic and is a strong early contender for top spots of 2024!

    The bar is amazing!!

Intimate, warmly lit, and thoughtfully designed, it invites you to settle in. The presence of books, the scale of the room, the soft energy all creates an atmosphere that feels cultivated. What stands out most is the curation. The wine list is exceptional without being overwhelming, and the option for half pours makes it especially enjoyable for a slower, more exploratory evening. It's clear that every selection has been chosen with care and a point of view. The food follows suit--refined, seasonal, and quietly confident. Nothing is overdone, yet everything feels considered and well-executed. It complements the experience rather than competing for attention. Service is knowledgeable, passionate and attentive. My waiter was incredibly knowledgebale and offered the perfect suggestions. Then, when I was ready to try a drink, the bartender noticed, came over, and suggested a half pour of champagne with the omelette I ordered. Lucian doesn't try to be everything. It knows exactly what it is and executes it at a very high level. It's a place to linger, to read, to have a glass of wine that turns into two. An experience that feels both personal and elevated.

We started with the polenta appetizer, silky and warming, the kind of simple dish that becomes memorable when it's done with real finesse. The black grouper followed as the star -- perfectly cooked, delicate, and rich without ever feeling heavy. Paired with the seasonal salad, bright and crisp, it created a beautiful balance of depth and freshness. The 2021 Tempranillo from Rioja, Spain was a standout. Smooth, structured, and aromatic, it elevated every dish without overpowering them -- one of those bottles you immediately want to remember. Dessert was the lemon tart, light, fragrant, and absolutely divine. A perfect finish. And because it's Lucian, we didn't leave without wandering the shelves -- and ended up purchasing The Silk Roads by Anna Ansari, the perfect companion to an already thoughtful evening. A refined, welcoming space that feeds you in every sense. We'd return without hesitation.

I came with a friend around 7pm on a Saturday and the place wasn't too crowded. We were seated immediately. They have both inside and outdoor patio tables. The vibe was chill with music playing at a decent volume, but over the next hour the place got very crowded and the music got louder. By 9pm, the place was quite packed and we were politely asked to close out to give our table to others waiting in line. I was very surprised by the cocktails - in a good way. I was pretty hesitant looking at the cocktail menu because most of the drinks had at least one ingredient that I don't like. However, the drinks were fantastic. I got the Hot in the Shade and my friend got the Fast Idol, which were both delicious. I don't even like gin and yet my drink, which has both gin and vodka, were outstanding.

I would love to hear some more range of music selections and the volume can be a little bit loud on the early side of the day. All in all it's a great place to check out!
