The restaurant is brand new and has great vibes. Service was exceptional with zero wait for my party. The food was so good and unique, I recommend the ceasar wedge with housemate bagel chips and the biscuit battered chicken sandwich, yum. The Chef even made time to come and check on us during our lunch. Kiddos to Chef Chris and his staff. This is a hidden gem in the heart of downtown read more

A breath of fresh air for the neighborhood Walked into The Ember Room* expecting the usual gastropub vibe and left actually excited about where American food is heading. The space is clean but not sterile: exposed brick, warm wood, and a bar that glows like it wants you to linger. *The food* skips the tired "burgers and mac" checklist. Think short rib agnolotti with smoked corn puree, charred broccolini with miso-garlic butter, and a fried chicken sandwich that somehow stays crisp under a jalapeño honey glaze. Portions are generous without being wasteful, and everything tastes intentional like the kitchen tested it 10 times before it hit the menu. *The cocktails are the real flex.* The menu changes seasonally, but the bar team leans into flavor over gimmicks. I tried the *Oaxacan Old Fashioned* with mezcal, mole bitters, and orange peel that's torched tableside. Smoky, slightly sweet, zero gimmick. My friend went for the *Cucumber Basil Gimlet* and said it tasted like summer in a glass. No sugary syrup bombs here. Bartenders actually explain what's in your drink if you ask, and they're good at steering you if you're unsure. Service hit the sweet spot between attentive and relaxed. Water refills showed up without hovering, and the server knew the menu well enough to call out what's spicy, what's rich, and what's worth splitting. It feels like a place locals will become regulars at, but it's good enough to bring out-of-town friends to. Creative without being precious, tasty without being safe.

Let's start with the good. The service was really good! I believe his name was Drew. He was accommodating and friendly. He answered questions, engaged in a bit of discussion and got everything right! Next, the ambiance. It was a quaint spot. Clean. Wasn't bad but it was empty. Us and two other tables. We asked for intimate and boy did we get it, lol. It was a cool spot but could have used a little more livelihood. I asked if the slow stream was normal and was told it was because it was Palm Sunday. Finally the food. It wasn't bad tasting, it was just not blow your mind amazing. I had the salmon Caesar wrap and the French 75. He had the wings and fries. Those wings were flavorful and fried hard like I like them but were super tiny! I also asked about those and was told small wings was the norm in ATL especially the brunch spots. All in all, it wasn't a bad place but could use some vibes to liven the place up a bit. Oh yeah, the drink....it was okay. Minor adjustments would have made it amazing! It definitely has the potential to be great. read more

My wife and I came for lunch and here is our experience. Service (1 out of 10) - our waitress forgot to put in our order for brussel sprouts, forgot to add chicken to my wife's salad, never refilled our drinks, and didn't know what sauce came on the catfish slider. Being my first time I asked her what was good here. She led off by suggesting the chicken tenders. Immediate red flag. Food (4 out of 10) - catfish sliders were ok at best. Fried catfish on regular buns and a slice of American cheese. My wife had a salad that was not great. The brussel sprouts that we waited extra time for were very good and the highlight of the meal. The atmosphere was good but not anything special. Conclusion: too many good places to recommend this place for a meal. Seems this is better as a place to come to drink, not eat. read more

My experience as to my sister was completely different. My Caesar chicken wrap and fries came out nice and hot. However my sisters fries were cold. Our waiter Chris was quick to respond and replace them with fresh ones. I enjoyed my wrap but my sisters felt the strips were over breaded. Took half of mine to go. A huge storm hit the area and they let us wait it out. Then upon request they gave us two trash bags so we could at least stay some what dry. read more

Social Capitol - Menu - New American Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Ate an early dinner here while waiting for a Yelp event to start. Looked for free street parking right after the day time period for required paid parking was done, and got to park very close to the hotel near the valet station. After entering through the main lobby entrance, turn left and go downstairs - you'll see the bar area. There were two attentive servers/bartenders working the bar area when we arrived. Nice bar stool seating right at the U shaped bar counter, with lots of tables and chairs for customers. Ordered the Capitol Cheeseburger, which came with a beef patty, bacon, jam, cheese, lettuce, pickles, and tomato. I had ordered the beef patty cooked medium well, but it was served well done. Not quite a fan of well done burgers, but I was hungry and didn't want to wait any longer for a replacement burger. Included with the burger meal was a drink and a ton of fries. I'm sure that the employees in the kitchen were trying to see how many fries they could add so that I couldn't see the bottom of the plate. There were just way too many fries that I couldn't eat them all. Great service, decent burger, good fries, and a drink, with a great price of $14 for the entire meal. The only things that would've made this meal better were for the meat to be cooked medium well and a couple of slices of sweet onion added to the burger. Overall a good experience! read more

The cauliflower with the sweet chili is awesome. Nice and crunchy but perfectly cooked.

I had the pleasure of visiting Social Capitol shortly after its opening, and I must say--it's already operating like a well-loved local favorite. The staff greeted me so kindly, helped me with menu suggestions, and checked up on me just enough; being attentive without ever being intrusive. It's clear that hospitality is a top priority here. The food? Exceptional. I had the breakfast sandwich with a side of potatoes and a parfait. Both dishes were beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in using fresh, high-quality ingredients. Whether you're in the mood for a light bite or something hearty, the menu offers a well-balanced variety of items. What really tied the experience together was the ambiance. The space is wonderfully designed. It's warm and inviting. It's the kind of place where you can lose track of time at either dining, chatting, or working on your own thing. Social Capitol hit everything on the nail - from excellent service and top-tier food, to a relaxing vibe. I'll definitely be back--and bringing friends. read more

Had a wonderful brunch there on a recent Sunday. The style and overall feeling you get while in here is, I want to keep having fun here! Great food, wonderful service that is so attentive and great with suggestions since it was our first time there. I enjoyed a Crispy Chicken sandwich, nothing like it anywhere, delish! I also enjoyed a perfectly blended Bloody Mary! My friends and I all tasted off each other's plates from a large platter our server brought us; we put it in the middle of the table, and everyone put bites of their plates on it when the food came. So, I really got to try a lot. We'll definitely be going back! read more

Food was great as well as service. This restaurant has a great vibe being all new in a historic building.

Let me tell you about Mr. Earl, friendly, professional and welcoming-always puts a smile on my face. Checks my food and if he feels that it could be better, he will send it back. Thank you, Earl, for just being you!!! read more

this place is located in a area that could really make them blossom into a profitable restaurant!! however, its not consistent and the food quality is very poor. the salad is not fresh the chicken taste old and look old. i ordered a caesar salad with grilled chicken and it was horrible. they're giving you old iceberg lettuce on a caesar salad and old dried up chicken straps from god knows where from the looks of it. this is my 2nd review at this restaurant(smh) i wanted to give them the opportunity to make things right and its only got worse! i would not recommend to anyone!!! don't waste your money!! read more
