    Friday Vibes With Friends
    Monica W.

    I Had My First R&B Style Atlanta Lounge Experience With Live Music. My Sistah-Friend Had Been Telling To Come Visit @theoryloungeatl I'm Happy I Finally Did It's A Really Nice Mature Atmosphere & The Food Coming Out Looked Delish. The Service Was Friendly & Professional. I Had The Jambalaya Pasta Filled With Shrimp, Chicken, Smoked Beef Sausage, Onions Tomatoes & Mushrooms In A Spicy Creole Tomato Sauce Tossed With Red Wine & Penne Pasta, Topped With Fresh Mozzarella & Parmesan Cheese. Yum #atlantaloungesandbars #livemusic #exploreatl #theoryloungeatl #familyowned #wellran #friyayvibes #jambalayapasta

    The steak was absolutely amazing. Ambiance was great. Love the live performance. Service was good.

    Shrimp and Grits

    Went here to celebrate my girlfriend birthday and thought the place was ok. They had 1 girl working the entire lounge. The music was good but the drinks were horrible. Really small cups filled with ice. I ordered the shrimps and grits and I didn't like it. To loose for grits.

    Met some cool people

    I am visiting Georgia, and one of my friends recommended this place. The lounge had an older crowd, like 50 and over. Which was great, because there was no drama. Everyone was there to have a good time. I sat at the bar & although the bartenders were pretty busy, the service was still good. I had the Hawaiin salmon, Collards & rice. Everything was flavorful & it was reasonably priced. For my people in Baltimore, this place reminds me of Sisters Place AKA Identity. So, If you don't feel like dealing with the rowdy young crowd then this is the place to go & the food is good too!

    Me and some lady who was on a blind date who needed company until he arrived

    Ask the Community - Theory Restaurant & Lounge

    Is it 18+?

    They do not check IDs at the door, as there is no entry fee. They have really good food, hookah, and music that everyone 18+ can enjoy!

    Is there a dress code?

    Grown and sexy, no sneakers,white tees and jogging wear

Host was very prompt and polite. We were seated right away. Service was great. Food arrived fast after we ordered. Flavor of the food was very good. Only downside was that there were no condiments on the table (salt/pepper, hot sauce, ketchup, etc.) so I asked for hot sauce and they charge an additional $2 for a small cup. I would go back again for food and try some hookah.

TVs had sports (no audio) & music was jammin. There were only 1 other couple inside when we arrived. They have deals almost every day on either drinks or food. FOOD: Ordered the mozzarella sticks & catfish entree. The mozzarella sticks were flavorful. The catfish dish came topped with arugula & had 6 hushpuppies. The catfish was fresh & the arugula made it a delicious bite. I would have liked a little bit more of arugula to have with each bite of my fish but not a deal breaker. The hushpuppies were very good. They had bits of corn & came with sauce but didn't need it at all. Overall, I enjoyed both items ordered. Drinks were ok. Mine was slightly overpowered with lime, but it was good overall. This place would pop if more people were there. I noticed there's a 15% gratuity for parties over 4 & checks over $100. This place is located in a pocket & it's not easily seen from the street. I'm willing to try this place out again.

    There are so many better options for nightlife in Miami, I would recommend skipping this place…read more After family night a large group of us decided to check out miami lounge. They advertise free entry, free sections, all of which are not valid. Upon arriving we were charged a 20 cover. The overall price of the cover was reasonable in my opinion. The issue was that they had a flier advertising free entry and they did not honor it. The woman at the door explained that it was only free until 11 however the flier did not have any time limit. Once we entered the club was dead. The music was decent but was overshadowed by a blown speaker. I felt like I was in a Honda civic with an after market cd and sub install (iykyk). Because we were a large group we did get a section. The waitress was nice and attentive but was not overly informative. The club has a hard close of 2:30 even though their hours say they close at 3. At 2:30 the lights came on and they immediately started screaming for everyone to get out. The issue with this is the waitress continued letting us order food and water (bottled) up until "close". The food was brought out 10 minutes before they "closed" but that was not communicated. So at 2:30 when they are screaming for us to get out we still needed to get boxes as the food had JUST come. Also you can not leave with any open liquid. Alcohol is self explanatory but this also includes water. So the 5 dollar bottles of Fiji water she brought (they only serve bottles) at 2:28 had to be thrown out bc we opened them. The wings were crispy but way over salted. They are a good drunk food though because of the saltiness.

    This place is so lame. Went on a Saturday and it was dead. Everything is way overpriced too.. On…read morethe bright side, service is good but just pass if you're looking for a good time lol.
