    I have been here a few times. My husband often picks this location for special anniversaries. We…read morewent there last night to celebrate our recent union. For drinks I had the Not so French 76 and it was really tasty. I stuck with that for the night. To start we ordered the Lobster Rolls and the HAMACHI CRUDO. Both were delightful! For dinner we had the WESTHOLME WAGYU CUTS, THE GARDEN SALAD and WAGYU Pasta. They had a live dj and the vibes were pretty chill per usual. Talia was our waitress and she was on it the entire night!

    We booked a month in advance with high expectations, but unfortunately, the Garden Room proved to…read morebe a case of "all flash and no substance." While the space is undeniably beautiful and great for photos, the actual dining experience was deeply underwhelming. The Service: Our waitress was incredibly pretentious and snobby. She actually refused to let us order certain items because she "didn't recommend them" and was completely inflexible regarding simple spirit substitutions in the signature cocktails. The Food: The $75 tableside carbonara was overly salty and lacked any sense of refinement. The lobster roll was even more disappointing--mushy, flavorless, and contained very few actual chunks of lobster. After those dishes, we decided to skip the fish entree entirely. The Value: The "best" part of the meal was the bread, which felt like it should have been a table complimentary, but instead cost $10 for a few slices. For a $300+ bill, you expect quality that matches the price. The Atmosphere: Once you look past the initial "wow" factor, you realize the floral decor is largely fake, which mirrors the feel of the service. We had fun laughing at how ridiculous the situation was, but we won't be returning. My advice: Stop acting like a world-class establishment until the cuisine and service actually justify the attitude.

    On October 26, 2024 I attended a beautiful Wedding located at…read more The Atruim 139 Norcross Tucker Road Tucker, GA 30071 The Venue itself is gorgeous and can hold up to 200 guests. You can choose to get married indoors or outdoors. Ida, the Event Planner, was very welcoming, very attentive, very available when needed and very professional. Ida, provided Outstanding customer service and I would definitely choose her to plan my Wedding. The Bride, Groom and their Wedding party have two separate dressing rooms so everyone can get dress once you arrive at the location. Overall, I was pleasantly pleased with this Venue and would recommend it to my family and friends. It was the beautiful venue for me.

    My wedding at The Atrium/Flint Hill had two different stories: The wedding day was fantastic, but…read morethe planning was a nightmare. I suspect the positive reviews reflect the former. I will share advice that I wish I had received before making a 50% deposit. My rating is based on the planning. The day of would get 4 stars. - We were glad we had an outside wedding planner to be our ally. If you've never planned an event like this, you might not realize that you can easily be taken advantage of. - They provide a lot of staff on the day of the event, but some of them were people we had never met. We had an eight-minute call with our "Day of Reception Director" the week before the wedding. She is a part-time (weekends) employee who doesn't even have a company email address. - We were dazzled by Melissa's sales pitch. She spent 2 hours with us when we came in for a tour and it was great. We thought she would be a great ally in this process. She was super friendly and helpful through the contract process until we paid 50%. - We needed to read every version of the updated invoice to catch price changes. The price of our dessert was $9 until one day it was $9.50. They charged us $150 for early arrival with a $150 credit to cancel it out. One day that credit had changed from $150 to $2. Laura from the design studio "accidentally" increased the price of some tablecloths by $5 each. - Their contracts sometimes expire after two days, and they said we needed to sign before getting answers to our questions. This happened with 2 contract addendums. We asked questions. Melissa said "Any specific detail changes to this contract will be handled in the extended planning sessions." - They marginalized me while behaving towards my husband. We had a recurrent problem where I would send an email, no response, husband reminds them, and they respond quickly. One time they ignored my email for five days. When he replied to my note, they responded to him within the hour. I don't know if it's because he's a man, he makes more money than I do, or they simply didn't like me. - If we didn't get it in writing, they often denied it. There are numerous topics that I am certain we discussed verbally but unfortunately I didn't have it in writing. With the issue mentioned above, they insisted we never discussed it, and they only agreed to do it because we found written confirmation. - We needed to spend at least $2,000 at their design studio, but we didn't have any trouble exceeding the minimum. We had very minimal design requirements, brought in an outside florist for the bouquets, and our initial quote was over $1,900, not counting the $700 tablecloth rental. - Menu changes come with an upcharge. You only get to put out one salad dressing. If you want your guests to have a choice, there is an $0.50 per person. Mashed potatoes come with no toppings. Want to add something as simple as sour cream or chives? One dollar per person for each topping. - We paid more than 80% of the adult rate for children aged 4-9. Children starting at age 10 are charged full price. The menu says "reduced rate" for children, but the aren't mentioned until much later in the process. They get a 20% discount on the base price for the buffet, but they are full price for drinks, dessert, and add-ons. I don't know if they would also be charged 100% for drink packages with alcohol. - We had to convince them to let us have a menu tasting. They offered us a "tasting box" with six items from another event's menu but only one or two from our menu. None of these options had our main dishes included. They said the point of a tasting box is to understand the quality of the food, not our specific menu. I want to thank Kristin, the CEO, for her help. Two months before our wedding, she allowed us to switch from the Atrium to Flint Hill (for a cost of $3,500) The change in venue couldn't fix corporate policies and staff difficulties though. Atrium specific advice: - You will probably want to get ready offsite. The bridal suite is very small. There were 4 of us getting ready, and the room would have been too small. The groom's room is more like a walk-in closet than a room. These rooms are both upstairs with no bathroom. If anyone in your party is unable to get up the staircase, they will be getting ready in the public bathroom on the main floor. - If the bride and groom want to have some quiet time after the ceremony, it will be in the bridal room with no bathroom. Want to wash your hands or touch up your makeup? You need to go downstairs to the bathroom that the guests are all using. - You need a wifi backup plan. We were told that the wifi there is "spotty". When I asked why, they said "because this used to be a bank." I don't know how that is relevant because I have visited many banks that have adequate wifi. I can honestly say that planning this wedding was one of the worst experiences of my life. Good luck, future brides and grooms.

    What an absolutely precious place!…read more I've had afternoon tea at other houses in the Atlanta area and I believe this is my favorite one so far! I love all the unique decor and atmosphere. The servers are all fantastic. The small bites and teas were all delicious. We came here for a girlfriend's birthday and had the best time. There is a two hour limit, but otherwise everything was great. Parking is via a private parking lot.

    My husband called on Tuesday to make tea reservations for either Saturday or Sunday and was told…read morethere was availability for both days. The person who answered stated they couldn't book the reservation themselves but assured him someone would call back shortly to confirm. Unfortunately, no one ever called back. After that, no one answered the phone for the rest of Tuesday, Wednesday, or most of Thursday. When he finally reached someone right before closing on Thursday, he was told they were completely booked. This experience was extremely frustrating and disappointing due to the lack of communication and follow-up. We understand places get busy, but not returning calls and then suddenly being fully booked after initially confirming availability is poor customer service. Their reservation system also clearly needs improvement. An online reservation model would make much more sense because the current phone-based process is not working effectively. Although I've enjoyed tea here on a couple of different occasions, the experience is not astonishing enough to return after this reservation experience.

We so appreciate how hard they worked and how smoothly everything went that evening. They have their system down to a science to make the planning easy for the couple and yet make it unique to their needs. We will cherish those memories for a lifetime.

    This is an Affordable and Attractive venue with an Attentive coordinator!…read moreMy daughter had her reception here and while you may find other venues that are lovely they will all be missing the "Gerise Factor! " - She was upfront and honest on pricing. - She took our needs for a totally gluten and dairy free menu VERY seriously and it was delicious. - She answered emails and phone calls promptly and allowed multiple visits to the venue to visualize and try out items in the space. - Other vendors raved about her and the culture of the venue as well. We had around 170 guest. We filled up the ballroom but with the space of the house and the beautiful yard and patio people had plenty of places to mingle and visit. 173 Carlyle is a great value and much of that value is because of Gerise! It was great to know we could depend on her.

    We kinda went in blindly with Carlyle House for our wedding. And by blindly I mean - we didn't have…read morea chance to taste the food beforehand, we liked what we saw on the tour but it wasn't set up for a wedding, rather a holiday party, and at the venue-booking stage of the planning I had absolutely NO CLUE how wedding crazy I would become in the following 6 months of planning. You see, I'd planned to have a simple wedding. I didn't care about all of the frills (at first). I just wanted good food, good drinks and the people we care most about in attendance. And Carlyle House made everything easy. They could customize my linens, we had a great choice of food and they were willing to let me bring in my own cupcakes. Add all that to the super cute old house that has an add-on ballroom and I was sold at first glance. Gerise - the on-site planner - was awesome. I never felt like she wanted to kill me after I would send her one of hundreds of emails with questions as I worked my way into becoming a minor bridezilla. She choreographed the rehearsal perfectly and was even better on our wedding day. She made me not regret hiring a wedding planner because she seriously did it all for us. In the end, I did turn into the bride I never dreamed I would be - personalized aisle runner, flowers I never wanted, a candy buffet and cute little signs I thought I could DIY and ended up hiring out. And even though my then-fiancé made the mistake of actually calling me BrideZilla a few times (he obviously has never seen the show with the REAL bridezillas), our wedding was absolutely PERFECT. Even my always-disapproving-of-everything mother-in-law loved it. And that's more than any praise I can give anything in this world. The food was great - better than we expected. The drinks were great. The night was great. And we are now Mr. & Mrs. Kim. That is sooo great!
