    Mac and cheese, Caesar salad, fried shrimp, pizza

    I stumbled upon Roaring Social one night where I wasn't quite ready to go home. I googled live music in the area and I discovered that they were having I've band Karaoke; don't mind if I do! Our bartender was fabulous and the food and drink was delicious and fresh. They have a really nice drink menu with different cocktails as well as a full bar. We had a delicious spread of mac & cheese, pizza, Caesar salad, and fried shrimp. I will definitely go here again for a party!

    My girlfriends and I dressed up for a cocktails, dinner, and music at Roaring Social-Decatur. When we arrived, there was no line, however we were quickly greeted by the host and he even took some nice photos of us. Our server was friendly and our food/drinks arrived quickly. The live music artist, Jacob Blazer, was so entertaining and talented too. We will return again.

    This place was amazing! I can very much see this place being the to-go for folks celebrating something or just go have a good time! It definitely has the speakeasy situation down pat as you need a password and some other items before you actually go in. The space and ambiance is amazing; all the staff was very friendly and my drink was magnificent! I had a smoked old fashioned and I don't think I have ever been asked about how much I want my old fashion smoked but it was very good! I cannot wait to go back on purpose (as this visit was very random).

    Chris (treble) is the funniest and most reliable bartender. He's so attentive and the atmosphere is that of obviously the 1920s. If you have to ask you don't know. The food is delicious but the drinks are even better. Chris makes the most delicious drinks and I definitely recommend coming here. Oooh ohhh oahhhh.

    This new speakeasy in downtown Decatur is truly one of a kind! The prohibition 1920s theme came through in the various decor and actors/staff. Entering the speakeasy was pretty easy even though we realized we didn't know the password. Once we realized we needed to "make a deposit", we were led to a replica bank room and into the bar. The vibe was really cool! Lots of interactive opportunities such as bowling and a photo booth. The food and drinks were a little slow to come out, even with not many people visiting. The food itself was yummy! The steak was tender and well seasoned. Wish the sauce came on the side because it wasn't my favorite. The music was also very loud and didn't really match the aesthetic of the place in my opinion, but did have a good vibe to it! Overall, I think they're still settling in, but would love to try it out again sometime in the future!

    Charcuterie board!

    OMG!! Can I give this place 10 stars? I'm at a loss for words to tell you how fantastic this place is. Just get there as fast as you can and ask questions later! Everything about it was top tier, elegant, fun, lively and friendly. Over the top service all night long! This one is going to be hard to top! Make sure you get the password online before you go, and the fun begin begins with the password! Yes!!!!

    My new favorite Thursday night Karoake spot. The band is great and so is every single person working here. They're all super warm and attentive. I always have a good time and the food is really tasty. I look forward to trying them out on a weekend.

    Shrimp, spicy aioli and coleslaw
    Marcus S.

    The small bites were very good and drinks to accommodate refreshing! Ambiance is absolutely amazing! My bartender was extremely attentive! I will definitely be back for sure and rotate between the Decatur (this visit and review) and Alpharetta locations!! A freaking "crazysexycool" evening and beautiful people enjoying their lives!!!

    My wife and I visited Roaring Social for an early dinner at 5:30 pm on a Friday. The restaurant was nearly empty with just one other couple there. The Good: The entrance experience is fantastic. They've clearly put thought and effort into the bank vault theme, and walking through that vault door really sets the stage. The interior has a nice lounge vibe with comfortable couches and areas that would work well for larger groups. The steak frites special was genuinely delicious. The steak was tender with a lovely chimichurri salsa, and the fries with garlic aioli were fantastic. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, which we appreciated. The Not-So-Good: Unfortunately, the theming breaks down once you're past that impressive entrance. There are two TV screens and a large stage with a big screen behind it that clash with the speakeasy concept. The contemporary music doesn't help, and during our visit, a band was doing mic checks and practice for an evening performance (they typically start after 7:00 pm). My wife and I had to nearly shout to hear each other at times, which isn't what I expect from a speakeasy atmosphere. The cocktails were just okay. Their smoked old fashioned lacked any sweetness and came across as too strong. The charcuterie board was disappointing--the only cheese appeared to be pre-packaged cubes you'd find at any grocery store, and it came with crispy, cracker-like bread instead of the naan advertised on the menu. Overall: Roaring Social has potential, especially if you're going with a larger group and aren't expecting an intimate, quiet speakeasy experience. But between the broken theming and the noise level, it's not somewhere I'm rushing back to anytime soon.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Super fun experience! Went with a work group and loved how we entered the speakeasy and immediately the vibe. Drinks were great, dessert was great, food was good to great, and loved the vibes. Music sometimes didn't match the vibe but it was still a fun night! All the servers were kind and accommodating.

The service has been great, and the waitstaff is super knowledgeable about their drinks and food. It's such a cool vibe inside, but it is very dark. It's kinda hard to see the menu - I wish they put small handheld flashlights on the tables. Multiple tables around us were using iPhone flashlights to see the menu which were so bright. The food is always incredible, and I'm partial to their seafood options. I've had both the snapper and the trout, and they were exceptional. Their cocktail menu is 10/10.

We snagged an early dinner reservation at 5:15 pm and surprisingly, people were already dining and they just got busier as time went on. We were greeted right away by our wonderful server (forgot her name though) and she asked if it was our first time there and if we were celebrating something. We answered yes to both and they actually brought us complimentary champagne, a sparkling non-alcoholic cider for me because I ordered a zero proof drink. Kimball House is known for their amazing bar program, so my husband ordered a Kimball House served with a side of olives and lemon twist on ice, like what?! I ordered a ginger & honey lime fizz to enjoy. For starters, we also enjoyed Hawaiian rolls, green salad and some oysters for my husband. The rolls and salad came out super fast, but there was quite a wait for our drinks and oysters that I didn't think they were going to come out. The rolls are a must-get here - they're huge and the strawberry preserve it was served with was delicious! The salad was actually split in half, which was a super nice touch and was plenty of serving between two people. We loved the dressing - it was nice and fresh. For our entree, I ordered a trout and my husband ordered the duck breast. I was a bit underwhelmed when I saw my plate because I was thinking it would be a plate full of grits, but what was served was the perfect amount because it was quite heavy. The trout by itself was too salty for my taste, but was best eaten with a bite of collards and grits. My husband enjoyed his meal, but wished the duck was cooked a bit more. For dessert, we both enjoyed a Paris Brest. Our server actually put it in twice so we each got one when she meant to only punch in one, but she ended up taking one off from our bill. I was quite shocked that our whole dinner was only around $190, not including tip, which I thought was quite reasonable. We definitely recommend this place for date night or simply for delicious food.

It was a Friday night, so it was pretty packed when we first got there. We put our names down, and then grabbed a drink at the bar. There was outdoor seating that was available, so we grabbed a seat. We were then notified that our table was ready. It wasn't even 20 minutes, so this was great. The host took us to two seats at the bar. SOS is such a cool island type of vibe. They have so many different tiki cocktails that you can choose from. They are mostly made of rum, but they have a few other ones that are made with different alcohols. Me and my wife both got our own drinks. Hers was a special Valentine's Day themed drink that was on the menu, and mine was one of the tequila/mezcal tiki drinks. Both tasted really good! The presentation was just as good too! You aren't limited to these though, it's a full bar, so you can get whatever you want. They also have a few food options, but very limited. Our bartender, Heather, was super nice as well. My wife had asked (when I went to the restroom) if they did anything for birthdays, since my birthday was a few days prior. She did this cool fire presentation and gave us two little slushie shots. Awesome bartender for sure! SOS is a great place to go for some really fun drinks. It's good for groups, but keep in mind that they do get quite busy on the weekends! I'll definitely be back.

All the drinks were very fun and taste great and range from smooth to STRONG. The attention to detail put into crafting the drinks is very admirable. I can guarantee your drink will look exactly like how it's depicted on the menu. If only I could remember the names of all the drinks I tried....oh well. What I do remember is that they set the Mai Tai's on fire so that's pretty cool. Service was also great. S/O Charlie! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. You're welcome!

We usually have to circle around to find a spot, and walk to the restaurant. We came by for lunch on a Sunday. I like both the exterior and the interior design of the restaurant. The server was friendly and professional. We ordered drinks and two entrées. There was only one other table besides us, so just two tables total in the restaurant. After our drinks arrived, it took more than 45 minutes for the food to come out. The food itself was delicious. We had the half chicken and the trout. The ingredient quality is high, you can really taste it. However, the wait time was a bit too long, especially considering how empty the restaurant was. Aside from the long wait, everything else was good. I wonder if the delay was because we came shortly after they opened for lunch, but if they're open, the kitchen should be ready. Overall, the food is quite good, though the entree menu is somewhat limited, if excluding the pasta. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth trying. Personally, I'm not sure if I would come back. I'd rather not experience that long wait again, but maybe it was just an off day when I visited.
