This is something not that noticeable from the outside. The food was preselected by YouTube but everything I had was delicious! And they made sure to have options for people to select. And glad there weren't any nuts (I have an allergy). Oh and the drinks were great! And I loved that servers would come around to ask if you wanted drinks and you didn't always have to go to the bar (not sure if that is a regular situation). The only thing I disliked was that volume on the TVs were so low that we couldn't hear the game or the halftime show even when people mostly stopped talking. It doesn't have to blowing our ears out but we should be able to at least hear the commentators and performers.

I had a really disappointing experience with the outdoor seating on the BeltLine at Painted Park…read more The bartender had a very unpleasant attitude, like he was doing us a favor just by serving us, which immediately set the tone. Things only got worse from there. We ordered food, but the server seemed completely lost--walking around with the wrong dishes for so long that by the time our food arrived, it had clearly been sitting in styrofoam containers. Our fried mushrooms were soggy and wet instead of crispy, which was honestly inedible. To top it off, the crab dip didn't come out until about 20 minutes later--right when we were already getting ready to leave. Overall, it felt like I just donated over $60 for a frustrating and poorly managed experience. Definitely not worth it regardless of the location.

I stumbled upon Aveline while looking for something different to try. I'm not a nightlife person,…read morenor do I frequent bars, but I was after a new food spot. Parking was a bit tricky at first, since I don't know the area well, but once I figured it out, it was smooth sailing. The menu wasn't huge--simple options--but they had a solid variety of drinks. I don't recall the exact drink I had, but I do remember ordering a wagyu burger with fries and some shrimp and crab hush puppies. Everything was delicious--from the drink to the food. I'd definitely come back, especially since they have a seasonal menu. I'm curious to see what new dishes they'll have next time!

But last Friday, I decided to stop by on a whim, and let me just say... it might be one of my new favorite little secrets in the city. The shrimp and crab hush puppies were absolutely delicious--crispy, flavorful, and a perfect start. But the real star? That Wagyu burger. I'm still thinking about it. Juicy, perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and served with fries for a surprisingly fair price. It was honestly one of the best burgers I've had in a minute. David was my server and truly elevated the experience. His energy was warm and professional with a great spirit--one of those servers you hope you get every time you dine out. The vibe was laid-back with a smooth R&B playlist in the background that set the perfect tone for a Friday night. It wasn't overly crowded, which made it feel like a hidden gem right in the heart of the city. The Aveline gave exactly what it needed to--and I'll definitely be back.

The service has been great, and the waitstaff is super knowledgeable about their drinks and food. It's such a cool vibe inside, but it is very dark. It's kinda hard to see the menu - I wish they put small handheld flashlights on the tables. Multiple tables around us were using iPhone flashlights to see the menu which were so bright. The food is always incredible, and I'm partial to their seafood options. I've had both the snapper and the trout, and they were exceptional. Their cocktail menu is 10/10. Such unique combos of ingredients, but I've never had one I didn't love.

My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary here over the past week and we were both…read morepleasantly surprised with the food, service and ambiance of the restaurant! We snagged an early dinner reservation at 5:15 pm and surprisingly, people were already dining and they just got busier as time went on. We were greeted right away by our wonderful server (forgot her name though) and she asked if it was our first time there and if we were celebrating something. We answered yes to both and they actually brought us complimentary champagne, a sparkling non-alcoholic cider for me because I ordered a zero proof drink. Kimball House is known for their amazing bar program, so my husband ordered a Kimball House served with a side of olives and lemon twist on ice, like what?! I ordered a ginger & honey lime fizz to enjoy. For starters, we also enjoyed Hawaiian rolls, green salad and some oysters for my husband. The rolls and salad came out super fast, but there was quite a wait for our drinks and oysters that I didn't think they were going to come out. The rolls are a must-get here - they're huge and the strawberry preserve it was served with was delicious! The salad was actually split in half, which was a super nice touch and was plenty of serving between two people. We loved the dressing - it was nice and fresh. For our entree, I ordered a trout and my husband ordered the duck breast. I was a bit underwhelmed when I saw my plate because I was thinking it would be a plate full of grits, but what was served was the perfect amount because it was quite heavy. The trout by itself was too salty for my taste, but was best eaten with a bite of collards and grits. My husband enjoyed his meal, but wished the duck was cooked a bit more. For dessert, we both enjoyed a Paris Brest. Our server actually put it in twice so we each got one when she meant to only punch in one, but she ended up taking one off from our bill. I was quite shocked that our whole dinner was only around $190, not including tip, which I thought was quite reasonable. We definitely recommend this place for date night or simply for delicious food.

Some places feed you. 7th House feeds your soul. Let me set…read morethe scene first: based on everything we'd seen online, my friend Amanda and I were bracing for something exclusive and moody -- a dark speakeasy vibe where you feel like you need a password just to get a drink. What we found instead was one of the warmest, most welcoming spaces either of us had ever walked into. Don't let the mystique fool you. The entire concept is built around the zodiac, and it's executed with genuine intention -- not gimmicky, just beautifully thoughtful. The menu, the cocktails, the atmosphere -- all of it feels celestially considered. We had a 7pm reservation but arrived at 6:20 and didn't leave until almost 9pm. We hugged the staff on the way out. That tells you everything. Rolene, the owner's mom, is an absolute treasure. She floated through the evening making everyone feel like family, and at one point she read our tarot cards tableside. I truly cannot make this up and I genuinely cannot get over it. The bar manager, Hokulani, came in on her DAY OFF just to enjoy oysters -- and ended up sharing our plates on the patio like old friends. We were introduced to the head chef, and Jan took care of us all night with the kind of attentiveness that makes you feel like the only table in the room. The food: three rounds of oysters. Raw (clean and perfect), baked with sauce and cotija cheese (THE BEST -- fully deserves the caps), and their newest -- blood orange and coconut milk -- unexpected and stunning. Steamed buns, espresso martini shots, and a brookie we didn't need and completely devoured. The cocktails: I ordered off the Aries menu -- a spicy margarita with an avocado wash -- and it was the best spicy margarita I have ever had. You can't taste the avocado, but you feel this incredible fullness that rounds out the heat perfectly. Amanda doesn't drink much and they crafted her a custom lemon drop lemonade she adored. We came expecting a velvet rope. We left with hugs. 7th House, we will absolutely be back

This quarter's featured country is Singapore, so I was especially excited for the opportunity to try Singaporean inspired cuisine. One of the best surprises of the evening was that our group was seated in a private dining room for the birthday celebration. It made the evening feel even more intimate and special for my friend. Jordan truly made this experience exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about both the food and cocktail menus and explained every item in such an approachable and thoughtful way. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does and takes pride in the experience he creates for guests. Because of his recommendation and description, I ended up trying an entrée I probably would have overlooked otherwise. I ordered the Queensland chicken from the Singapore menu and it was outstanding. The chicken was extremely tender and the sauce had the rich, slightly sweet flavor profile Jordan described, almost reminiscent of a bourbon style glaze. It was comforting, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I also decided to explore the mocktail menu and tried both the Elliot Carver and the Paris Carver Kiss. Both were refreshing, balanced, and crafted just as thoughtfully as a full cocktail. From the service to the atmosphere to the food itself, this was truly a 10 out of 10 experience. I can absolutely see myself returning again soon.

Edit: It's extremely strange and off putting that the owners argue with every review that isn't…read morepositively glowing. The food was bland and under-seasoned, and I'm not someone who prefers a heavy hand seasoning wise. If I were going to come back, given the owners inability to take genuine feedback without being snarky, I certainly wouldn't now. Also, how does the owner know I'm not native to Singapore? Or at the very least lived there for many years? Not only is the response insulting, it's borderline racist. I really don't understand the glowing reviews. This place was not it. We visited during Singapore Week before a show at the Fox Theatre. My friends and I all love Singaporean food, which made the experience even more disappointing. The biggest letdown was the Hokkien Mee. If you've had this dish before, you know it typically has a rich, savory, curry-forward flavor. This version tasted more like a basic stir-fry noodle dish with a faint hint of chicken broth. It wasn't badly cooked, but it lacked the depth and flavor that makes Hokkien Mee special. I ordered the Tau Yew Bak (crispy pork belly), which was good, but nowhere near the most memorable pork belly I've had. The accompanying slaw/salad was completely forgettable and lacked flavor. My friend's Sambal Snapper suffered from the same issue. It wasn't offensive, just underseasoned and missing the bold flavors you'd expect from a dish built around sambal. We also ordered the Korean BBQ Duck Confit appetizer, which honestly tasted more like pulled barbecue chicken than duck. It wasn't bad, just not particularly exciting or memorable. I also tried the mashed potato croquettes, which were fine. That's really the best word for most of the food here: fine. Nothing was actively bad, but very little stood out. To be fair, there were some highlights. The hostess was warm and welcoming, and our server was good. The 006 Old Fashioned (their non-alcoholic Old Fashioned) was hands-down the best mocktail I've ever had, and I've had plenty all over the country. Seriously, it was outstanding and worth ordering on its own. The restaurant itself is also absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, great service, a gorgeous space, and an incredible mocktail couldn't make up for food that felt consistently underwhelming. 3 stars.
