The hubs and I went here this past Friday, 2-13, to celebrate his mama's bday along with his family…read moremembers. It was a total of 8 of us. Our reservations were at 9pm, however they close at 10 (I didn't make the reservations. I would've never made reservations an hr. before close). When I tell y'all we still got great service at this late time, I was in disbelief! Our waitress, Andrea, was EXCELLENT!! She was so patient and she never let on that she was irritated by us being there so late! Also, the owner, Federico, came over and gave us a rundown on the specials and a little backstory on the restaurant, which was a nice added touch, considering the time. The food was absolutely great! I had the Pear Burrata salad. It was so tasty, but needed a little bit more dressing..but still great! I also tasted hubs shrimp scampi! DELISH!! Unlike any shrimp scampi I've ever had! He also ordered the oxtail flat bread..wait what?!! Y'all it was soo GOOD!! I had never heard of anything like this before! Please try it out if you like oxtails! Oh, I almost forgot to mention the decor of the restaurant. It's dimly lit and gives a very "romantic, intimate" vibe! Also, their health score is a 91!! Yaay!! Highly recommended!

As a foodie, I'm always excited to try new restaurants, so we decided to give this place a shot…read more Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. Service: The service was just okay at best. Out of three orders, two were incorrect (both with wrong pasta that we ordered), and I had to remind the server about my cocktails when the entrées were already served. We were also celebrating a little girl's birthday, which made the experience even more disappointing. After two desserts were already brought out, I had to ask the host to bring a candle as I didn't see my server. Eventually a plate with "Happy Birthday" written on it came out, and we were told the server was "working on it," but it felt like an afterthought. The server didn't come out herself or even acknowledge the birthday, which was a letdown for a special moment. Ambience: This place is just too loud to even have a normal conversation. It's not the music that's the issue -- it's the space. The restaurant feels very small and overcrowded, with tables packed too closely together. With that many people in such a tight space, the noise level becomes overwhelming. Because of that, I definitely wouldn't recommend this place for date nights or any occasion where you actually want to talk and enjoy the moment. Food: Overall, the service felt inattentive and the food didn't stand out enough to make up for it. With so many great Italian restaurants out there, this one just didn't leave a reason for us to return.

I'm giving it 5 stars because of the ambience. I like places that make me feel welcome and at…read morepeace. The interior design is a combination of a night lounge and a high end airport lounge combined. Service was fast with 6 attendants taking orders; significantly reducing wait times. As far as the menu; they have 2 separate menus. One for coffee and snakes, and another that starts at 5:00 pm and includes entrees. We started with cold drinks; my niece ordered the Passion fruit lime tea, while I went all coco and sea salt ice tea with 50% less sugar. Both were delicious. Finger foods included Taiwanese chicken and Takoyaki. Entrees was skewered beef, and lamb.

We sat in a cute tent situation but they have all sorts of interesting seating arrangements inside and outside We got the brown sugar mochi which were pillowy & not too sweet! We also tried a mango croffle and my toddler was obsessed! The mango were so sweet and went so well with the cream and waffle. I'd order either of these again. We got a couple of drinks to wash it all down but I'd come back to try out skewers next time. I definitely recommend ordering your drinks at 1/2 or 1/4 sweet if you don't have a big sweet tooth! They have an assortment of breads, pastries and cakes for sale & can do custom cakes too. They didnt have much info on custom cakes but they start at $48 for the 6" I believe Other than food, they have an entire room dedicated to crafting that you can use if you purchase some crafts to make which would make such a cute girl's day out activity!

This is a neighborhood seafood gem! (Though I travel 25 minutes for this treat…read more At Kickin' Cean you will find a variety of fresh seafood (mostly shellfish) offered in a variety of user defined flavors and styles. From king crab to fried jumbo shrimp, this food won't disappoint. Their house seasoning for fries and other fried foods is amazing. Both sweet and sassy, but very addictive. The homemade cocktail sauce seems to employ the same flavors as part of their mix. Yum! Preeling, cracking, and dipping makes for a messy meal so dress accordingly. The tables have fresh paper on top, ready for you to do your worst. Bibs and tools, too! Service here is very attentive and friendly. The dinning room is casual and spacious. This is a local gem open for lunch and dinner! Fresh seafood and lots of bold flavors await!

The seafood is a 10/10!! This is a must try spot if you're in town…read more The crawfish is fresh and juicy! I will say the crawfish prices are most worth it especially when they have the $10/lbs deals on Tuesdays and Wednesdays! Add ons for corn, potatoes, and sausages are reasonable prices and they do not skimp out ok the sauce! I've tried the cajun fries and the garlic noodle! The garlic noodles are okay they're more dry and have whole garlic in it instead of minced. But the fries remind me of steak and shake skinny fries! The service is great. Servers are attentive and make sure your water's always filled. The place is clean and there's a double sink outside the restrooms that make it easy and convenient to wash your hands. Overall I love this place and would choose it over any other seafood restaurants :D

I LOVE Rushing!! It's a great spot for brunch and offers an amazing vibe/ambiance for a girls day…read moreor a day date. I was beyond excited when I found out that Rushing was opening a second location closer to me in Johns Creek. They offer interior seating only, and a decent amount of parking which is shared with the accompanying places in the shopping center. The food is always so great. Flavor is on point and portions are generous. Every drink I've had (alcoholic or not) has been great. The servers and team overall are always so friendly and seem more than happy to assist when they can to ultimately keep their customers satisfied. Rushing also offers rewards which is awesome for returning guests!! If you have tried this place, be sure to next time you are in the area.

I've been seeing Rose Valley Sweets pop up at various local events for quite some time, but I had…read moreabsolutely no clue they had a physical storefront until today! My girls and I decided to drop in on a whim. We had a phenomenal time. If you're looking for the perfect spot for your next girls' day out, this is it. It's a quaint, quiet little shop that invites you to sit, linger, and enjoy the atmosphere. When I walked in, I was immediately excited to see they carried Dubai Strawberries (my absolute favorite!). While I didn't grab them this time, I'll definitely be back for them. I opted for the Pistachio Cream Croissant, which was calling my name the second I walked through the door. It took a little bit of time to arrive, but it was absolutely worth the wait. I suspect they might have even baked it to order! It was the perfect sweet treat without being overly sugary, which is a massive plus in my book. The pistachio flavor was spot on. It was incredibly rich, nuanced, and tasted completely authentic. I paired it with the Hibiscus Tea, which was, quite literally, something made of dreams. Again, it had that perfect balance. It has just enough sweetness to elevate the drink without overpowering it. You can really taste the true, floral notes of the hibiscus. Beyond the stellar food, the vibe is just right. We saw several other groups come in and settle into the space to enjoy their treats, making it a great place to catch up with friends. I'm already planning my next trip back, and mark my words. I will be getting that delicious-looking saffron cake next time! If you're a fan of high-quality desserts that prioritize flavor over excessive sugar, you need to add Rose Valley Sweets to your list. #RoseValleySweets #AtlantaEats #DessertLover #PistachioCroissant #HiddenGem #GirlsDayOut #FoodieFinds #AshSaidIt #SweetTreats #AtlantaFoodScene #ashsaidit #johnscreek #ashsaiditshow
