    What a beautiful location. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to get pictures of the Inside. But let me tell you it really beautiful. The service was helpful and very knowledgeable of the menu. We didn't order anything, sirius, just wanted to grab a couple drinks so can't say much about the food. But from what we had, it was delicious. So if you're ever in the area, please check out Suwanee Social

    I wasn't expecting the aguachiles to be as good as they were. Although it is a small plate, i feel like the shrimp was so small, it's half of it but i really like them even tho it comes with plantain chips rather than the typical tostada. The pork belly arepa was DELICIOUS, i don't prefer pork but wow, i was very impressed. Also had the blueberry cosmo, was very sweet but was honestly gooooood. I gotta come back for sure

    Woodford reserve smoked old fashioned

    Suwanee Social was on my places to try and I finally was able to visit for my friends birthday dinner this past weekend. Let me tell you the ambiance is absolutely amazing for this restaurant. We had a party of 8 so we were waited to be seated until everyone showed up. The server was very nice and attentive. He was great. The food was excellent. It's like a tapas restaurant with small dishes but also has 2 main items if you'd like to order that. I ordered a smoked old fashioned with Woodford reserve, carne asada & chimichurri roja medium rare, hot honey garlic cheese curds, and gyoza potstickers. All the food was very tasty and amazing. I can't wait to to back with some of my other friends. It was a pretty cool restaurant with very modern vibes. I will definitely be back.

    Living life in full bloom w/ these beauties Check out @suwaneesocial @bloomroomsocial, one of the most beautiful new spot in Gwinnett Every corner feels like a photo backdrop, with gorgeous details that make the whole place feel elevated and effortlessly aesthetic. A stunning new addition to Gwinnett -- definitely worth a visit for the experience alone

    Snapper
    Valeen W.

    Very cool concept -- I love that they had both the Bloom Room and Suwanee Social open. The atmosphere was inviting, and the manager even gave us a tour, which was a really nice touch. We decided to try the snapper on the menu. Having eaten snapper for many years, especially growing up in the Caribbean where it's a staple, I was excited to taste their version. Unfortunately, the fish was undercooked. While the seasoning and flavors on the outside were delicious, by the time we got closer to the bone, the texture turned muddy instead of flaky. When the chef came out to inspect the dish, he used his phone's flashlight and mentioned that he'd been cooking fish for 30 years and never had an undercooked one. I respectfully pointed out that, from experience, snapper should be flaky throughout, not mushy in the center. I didn't appreciate the dismissive tone -- I believe good customer service includes listening to feedback, even if you disagree. To their credit, they did remove half the cost of the fish (which was $70) from the bill, and I appreciated that gesture. I have no problem paying for great food -- I just expect the experience to match the price. Overall, I still love the concept and the space, and I will return to support Suwanee establishments. I just hope that in the future, management and staff take customer feedback with a bit more openness rather than defensiveness.

    This is a relatively new restaurant in Suwanee that is Suwanee Social in the evenings, offering tapas and drinks. And in the mornings, it is Bloom Room Social, offering breakfast and brunch options. I went for breakfast. Reservations: We placed a reservation, which you may not need for a weekday. I foresee this place getting very popular on weekends so I would recommend making a reservation for weekend brunch or weekday/weekend dinner. Parking: There is ample free parking in the lot. Food: I ordered the Hipster Toast and it was so filling! The toast is massive and there is a good amount of avocado on there. The arugula salad was a nice refreshing bite as well. I would order it again! Drinks: I only drank water, but my friends ordered the pineapple mimosa and a Bloody Mary and seemed to enjoy their drinks. Vibe: Overall, I enjoyed my time here and the service was great! Our waitress was Valeria and she shared her top recommendations, which I ended up going with one of them. The space itself is stunning, with cute photo ops everywhere. And they even have a flower bar where you can make your own bouquet. I forgot to ask how much, but it's such a cute concept and brightens up the room. The dock of stars were for the plethora of flies that seemed to somehow get into the space. It really took away from the experience and I hope they're able to figure out how to remove them.

    The space is beautiful and the service is quick! It is a great spot for a little bite in between meals, which I can imagine is great for a casual date or hang out with friends. The food is all tapas so they are shareable, but I also liked how they had dishes from various cultures. The Brussels sprouts and steak were the highlights for us along with the cheesecake dessert. Again, it is tapas so don't expect to be super full unless you order a lot, but it is nice to just stop in for a little while.

    Food is great love the mimosas for brunch . Great service we alway ask to be seated with Marta & gang if not at bar, those ladies are so good . I love the dining room and patio decor, is so beautiful with plants and trees love going late so I can appreciate the whole place with the neon lights and some music playing

    Carne Asada & Chimichrri Roja
    Sydney O.

    Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and seated right away. The atmosphere was perfect -- cozy yet upscale, with just the right lighting and music to set the mood. The food was outstanding -- every tapas dish we ordered was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. You can tell everything was made with care and high-quality ingredients. The service was equally impressive. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations (the cheese curds ) Overall, this restaurant exceeded all our expectations. Great food, great ambiance, and fantastic service -- the perfect combination. We will definitely be coming back.

They have a few TVs for viewing and had a live belly dancer briefly perform. They didn't have a DJ. It seems like they were playing music from a music playlist, which was a mix of RnB and Hip Hop. Their menu has food, drink, and hookah options. They had nothing on the menu except for Suya; so, we didn't have food. The drinks were pretty good and reasonably priced, given that they were served in plastic cups. The hookah was pretty good and lasted awhile. Of note, the bartender couldn't take cash because she didn't have enough change in the register to return; the only option was card payment.

The sign would advise they open at 5, but doors wouldn't open until nearly an hour later. They would frequently do grocery runs to Walmart then charge you the same amount for items such as wings that were clearly different and finally arrived right before they close the lounge. So you literally had to box them, then pay your bill to close..... With that said, The recent visit I made last week was MUCH better. Decor of this locale is real loungy and sleek. Nice ambiance for a Gwinnett experience...The staff is very pleasant, and the Siracha wings are amazing!!! Presentation was so simple but nice... My friend got another chicken dish, that kinda looked like a Cordon Bleu, and that was quite tasty as well. Drinks are fair, (tiny portions with ice), and the music is good. Mix of African/Reggae/HipHop. In all, I recommend this place if the consistency stays like this....but I had to be honest about my previous experiences.

    "There's something magical about rooftops. You feel like you're in 'Mary Poppins."…read moreGeorge Clarke There really is something special about being on a rooftop on a perfect summer evening, and it's great to have it right in downtown Sugar Hill. I would like to say I planned the perfect date, but as some of the best things in life, this was just an impromptu visit to cap off an already great evening. Outside of being on the rooftop, the bar itself is upscale yet approachable, service was fast and friendly. Being a bit of a self engrandized home bartender I'm a bit critical when out of my home lab, but their Smoked Old Fashioned wasn't bad. ("Wasn't bad" really means very good.") While I don't love the prices and hate paying a cover charge, when you throw in live music, a great vibe, and a view, I can't really complain. The owner made an announcement that whoever tipped the band $10 would get a free drink, and since most drinks were over $15 I thought that was cool on many levels. Will definitely be back to The Rooftop!

We walked around and finally ran into a waitress who told us to sit anywhere we wished inside or outside. The only area festive was inside a closed igloo and no heaters were on outdoors which was just a tad too cool for me despite the super nice weather that day. It would have been so to sit outside but without the warmth of the heaters we headed inside. We placed our order and explained we were just there for a pre-dinner drink and wanted to check out the venue so we didn't leave our tab open but we were quickly served the fabulous taking drinks on their menu(s). The Old Fashioned was on the regular menu and the Russian was on their seasonal tabletop menu. Server was very nice and took photos for some ladies we met. The only reason I can't give them a 5 star is they claim they are big on hospitality but yet we were not acknowledged upon arrival. Many restaurants and even some retail stores have a way to ensure they say hello/welcome immediately when you enter and without a hostess - the mindset should be that the bar or wait staff have a way to immediately say hello or welcome so those who have never been feel welcomed as well as those who frequently come. It would be nice to have a more festive decor for the holidays but that didn't affect my review; just a statement to say that the entire Sugar Hill area was pumping and themed with the holiday spirit then we walked in the only area decorated was not even accessible nor was it offered as an option to enjoy.

    A great hangout spot, but behind the scenes is really sketchy and raised a lot of red flags…read more I went here about three weeks ago looking for a job. The manager (or, I'm assuming he was a manager, because he never said he was or was not) named Chef was the person I spoke to about being hired. He told me to come back for a shadowing session on Monday to see if I was a good fit. He told me to text him to confirm the date the weekend before, and when I texted him on Saturday, as we had talked about, I received no response. I texted him again several times on Sunday, and got nothing back until late that evening, less than 24 hours from the shift we had talked about, asking if we could do it Tuesday instead. I agreed and returned the following day. Right off the bat, it was weird; he never took down any information from me aside from my name and phone number, and showed me how to clock in and then told me to go right to the woman at the bar to look over the menu. He didn't tell me anything about pay, hours, a resume, experience, tasks, or even offer me a tour of the place, which I thought was odd. For reference, my boyfriend and I have both had a lot of experience managing and owning businesses, so we understand the process, and he backed me up on this when I brought it up to him. About 30 minutes into my shift, they ended up mentioning that their host never showed up, and I told them that I had experience and if they gave me a quick training talk, I'd learn it quickly. They put me up front, but didn't give me any instructions or check in with me the entire time, while I sat up there. About halfway through my shift, the woman at the bar called me back and asked me to go to Walmart and pick up some ingredients for them with some cash she offered me. I thought it was a bit strange, especially since they didn't have any information on me yet, but I agreed. I returned and continued my shift, and still nobody checked in with me the entire four hours. Well, eventually 10 o'clock rolled around (the time we'd agreed I would stop), and yet nobody showed any signs of coming up to tap me out. And then 10:30 came, and I ended up walking up to Chef, and a gentleman I assumed was another manager, and later realized may have actually been the owner, and he was at the bar smoking a hookah and drinking while still on shift. I asked him if they were trying to get me to stay till 11 or something, or if I misunderstood the time, but before I could tell him that I needed to leave soon because I'm also a full-time medical student, he ended up telling me that I could stay, like he thought I was asking. I thought I maybe could've phrased it better, so I ended up biting my tongue and went back up to the front for another 30+ minutes. While I was on shift, I noticed many more red flags that made me uncomfortable. For example, many of the on-clock staff were at the bar drinking and smoking the whole time with the owner. At some point during the jazz band, one of the employees ordered at least two mixed drinks and sat down with all the customers to watch, and apparently got wasted from what I heard. They also told us that we aren't allowed to say no if somebody orders us a shot because it's rude, even if it made us uncomfortable. (I looked it up with my boyfriend later, and we both confirmed that working while under the influence is against federal law.) They also said that servers would need to carry your own cash around because they didn't carry cash in the register, which means that the waiters have to break their own bills and bring in at least $50 worth of cash in order to start their shift, and risk losing out on money if we can't break a bill or something. My shift finally ended at 11:20, another 20 minutes after our agreed time, only because I basically told them that I was leaving instead of asking. And that whole time, no one once said anything to me about hosting, when they wanted me to return, pay, or anything. After I left around 11:30, I heard nothing back from Chef until two days later, after he completely ignored me until then, when he asked if I could come back in an hour after he messaged me. I told him I would not be returning because of how uncomfortable and inattentive it felt, and I asked about pay, since I had worked about a 5-hour shift for free thus far, and he never replied. I didn't push because, honestly, I just wanted to walk away from what had happened from how sketchy it was, even when I was encouraged not to. For bonus, the backroom was really gross. The whole area smelled like the dishpit hadn't been cleaned in days, and the towel room was basically just cloth thrown about. I've worked in a lot of restaurants, and this was by far the most unclean and untidy one I'd seen. I won't be going back, and honestly just want to leave this behind me, and warn anyone who may apply there in the future.
