Celebrated my mom's birthday at Park 82 and had such a great dinner experience!…read more We started with the chicken potstickers and fried green tomatoes, then enjoyed the GA trout, GA fried chicken, and shrimp & grits. Everything was flavorful and did not disappoint. I also enjoyed an espresso martini, and my mom was treated to a birthday dessert featuring white chocolate blueberry cheesecake. I loved the ambiance, the spacious bar area, and the outdoor patio. This was a new-to-me spot that I'm glad we tried for a special occasion! It was so good and we had such a great experience that we went back again a few months later to celebrate my aunt's birthday. This time, we had a big party and were able to make a reservation. The restaurant does a great job of accommodating big parties, and I believe they also have a private room. Our waitress was Maddy, and she was exceptional. She did a great job with our party and was very patient with us. The second time, I ordered something different and got the pasta. We all got a variety of different dishes, appetizers, and drinks, and everything was immaculate. I would definitely recommend Park 82 to others. The food, ambiance, and overall experience are exceptional. I love that because it's very hard to find quality restaurants these days. Definitely a spot I'd return to again!

My family and I first visited back in May for my mom's birthday, and we were so impressed that we…read morecame back in August to celebrate another, but larger, birthday outing. Inside: The restaurant is charming, cozy, and still feels modern, with both patio and indoor seating available. Plus, if you're not planning to go with a big group, they have plenty of bar seating. There's also plenty of free parking in the parking deck behind the restaurant/building. Service: Despite having a large party, our server, Maddie, was very efficient, kind, and attentive. While we were waiting for several of our party members to arrive, she quickly started us off with drinks. She maintained that same level of attentive service throughout the entire evening, from appetizers and entrees to dessert. Orders were placed quickly, and she was also quick to clear the table between courses to make sure we had enough space. Pricing: Pricing is probably about middle range. It's not necessarily going to break the bank, but if you're looking for something super cheap, this isn't it. We were able to pay for our own items/split the check, which is always great with a large party. A lot of restaurants don't offer that option when dealing with a bigger group. On average, I'd say you could spend anywhere from $30-$50 per person, depending on what you order and whether you get a drink (specifically alcohol). Food & Drinks: The star of the show and the reason you're really reading this review lol. The first time I came with my family, we tried the fried green tomatoes and chicken potstickers. The second time we came, we ordered the exact same appetizers. That alone should tell you how much we enjoyed them lol. I also ordered the same entrée I had the first time: the Georgia Fried Chicken. It is SO delicious. The chicken is tender, juicy, and has the perfect batter. It comes with macaroni (2nd time I got truffle fires) and Brussels sprouts, which are just as equally tasty. The portion size is very hearty, so I definitely think the price ($26) is worth it. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food, drinks, dessert, and atmosphere. We all agreed that Park 82 is a restaurant we'd definitely go back

On a beautiful early summer day with warm sunshine and gentle breezes, it was a pleasure to sit at…read moreone of the outside patio tables, overlooking the colorful flower garden and the lazy river -with food and service that lived up to this restaurant's positive reputation and its 5 star reviews. Food: 5/5 We decided to try a leisurely lunch. The menu is not large, but it has enough variety to be interesting. Everything we tried was delicious. The smoked salmon appetizer portion was large, but the best part was the great flavor. I can see why this choice has been on the menu for years. The Vidalia onion soup will be a surprise for the non-Georgians who expect it to be similar to a savory beef broth like French onion soup. Georgia's onions from the Vidalia area are sweet and tasty enough to carry the soup without the help of a meat broth and the green pesto sauce offers a nice additional touch. The salmon on fresh salad was done perfectly. The panka-crusted cod with mashed potatoes and spinach was outstanding. Both were seasoned so lightly that the true flavors shone through. The portions were generous enough that dessert at the time would have been too much, but others can do as we did and take home one of the dessert choices. Next time we plan to try their sandwiches which looked yummy at other tables. Service : 5/5 Service was excellent from the pleasant greeting, through the entire meal. Our server, Clayton, couldn't have been more helpful with the menu, as well as being very efficient and amiable. He made sure our food was served promptly and our beverages glasses were full, and our requests were met quickly. Facility: The facility lends itself to the riverside experience from the canoe in the entryway ceiling to the flowers and bird feeders just beyond the patio tables. The white tablecloth ambiance informs you that this isn't a fast-food experience. There are tents set aside in a more private are of the garden as a lovely venue for special events Location : This isn't a quick roadside stop next to a 6-lane highway. Even though the restaurant is convenient to dine in an Atlanta suburb, the roads to the restaurant wind and meander for a short distance through one of the prettiest neighborhoods, with a canopy of large old trees, with lovely fences, hedges, and gates lining the road. There is courteous valet parking at the front door. The restaurant is not inexpensive but it is well worth the prices paid, in our opinion.

After trying twice to order takeout I have been unsuccessful. Depending on the night they…read morearbitrarily decide whether they will take takeout orders. I'd understand if they stated it online or somewhere but they decide each evening whether or not they will take any takeout orders and then only way to find out is by calling. This is incredibly frustrating because you can't plan or count on being able to get food from there and with a menu as expensive as theirs that's just unacceptable, in my opinion. My impression is that they are stuck in the 1980s around when they opened and don't want to update the experience. Hence their post strict dress code and arbitrary takeout policy.

The reminded of like a bbq fry. Absolutely loved the flavor. The salad and tacos were also great. For our mains we had the spicy miso herb Caesar salad with poke tuna and the spicy tuna "toast". We all loved it. Both dishes were perfectly portioned and full of flavor. I forgot to take photos, but the decor in the restaurant is super cute.

Our server was Robin. He was pleasant and had really good service. He told us to relax and not worry about the restaurant closing. That made us feel better. Maya and Robin told us to come back for brunch so we did. The food during during was amazing. We got the ahi tuna tacos and the edamame and shared the burger and the salad. Everything was colorful and full of flavor. There isn't one item that left us disappointed. For brunch we came back and had the tuna tacos again. My husband loved them so much he ordered them two more times. We also had the bao Benedict and the tuna toast, which came recommended by Maya. All amazing. Also try the fruit salad and the nachos! For drinks we had the cold brew martini and the Caribbean Coffee made by Jess who was also very kind. I told my husband that the good, colorful food combined with the ambience and amazing service made me feel like I was on a vacation. I love this place and have added to one of my favorites. Cheers!

It's actually hilarious that I've been in this parking lot SO many times for neighboring spots like…read moreLee + White Food Hall and somehow never realized Boxcar was right there! My friend and I wanted to try something different, and when she suggested Boxcar, I literally asked, "Where is that?" She pointed out that it was in the same area we'd been standing in countless times. For anyone visiting for the first time, it is a little tucked away past the food hall. You'll also need to walk up a set of stairs to reach the restaurant, which is worth knowing ahead of time if stairs are inconvenient or inaccessible for you. Once inside, I really liked the atmosphere. They also offer outdoor seating, but with the Georgia heat that day, there was absolutely no discussion--we were sitting INSIDE. Our server was Najah (please forgive me if I'm misspelling!), and she was AWESOME. Such a warm spirit, great energy, and exactly the type of person you'd want greeting you whether it's your first visit or your tenth. Since this was my first time, I asked for recommendations. We started with the Boom Boom Shrimp from the happy hour menu, which is available Monday through Friday until 7 PM. The shrimp? 10/10. No notes! For our entrées, my friend ordered the fish and chips, which she loved--and it came with hush puppies, so really, how could you go wrong? I ordered the Bourbon Bacon Jam Smashburger, and it was cooked perfectly. I don't even remember being asked how I wanted it cooked, but somehow they knew exactly what needed to happen. And that bacon jam?! I LOVE a sweet-and-salty combination, so it was right up my alley. The fries were fire too, but apparently I was feeling a little greedy because I noticed mac & cheese on the menu and decided I needed that as well. LISTEN. I would've been perfectly happy if somebody had taken away everything else and left me alone with that mac & cheese. It was THAT good. Easily 20/10. I actually had to ask Najah who made it because I needed to understand what exactly was happening back there! She told me about the chef, who is Caribbean and from New York, and as someone with Caribbean roots who is also from New York, I may be a little biased--but suddenly I understood why that mac & cheese spoke to my spirit the way it did. I've literally been telling people about it ever since. There's still so much on the menu that caught my attention, including the lamb burger, Brussels sprouts, short rib, and several other dishes. I've included a picture of the menu because there's definitely more exploring to do here. As far as seating, Boxcar seems pretty versatile. There were just two of us, but there's plenty of indoor seating along with bar seating, and I could easily see a group of around 10-12 being comfortable. I also noticed what appeared to be a separate space toward the back that may be available for larger gatherings. Between Najah's wonderful service, the atmosphere, everything we ordered, and THAT MAC & CHEESE, Boxcar absolutely earned a return visit. I've already been bragging about the mac & cheese to everybody who will listen, so now I'm looking forward to finding out what I'll be bragging about after my next visit.

Service - 5/5 - We came back in July 2026 (catching up on reviews) and our waitress, Sydney, was such a delight.

(Future Goal: get into the habit of getting peoples names so I can shout them out when needed) AMBIANCE Dimly lit, quiet, and calm environment. I loved that for the bathrooms each stall was an individual ROOM! like no stalls next to each other where you can see peoples feet.

If you're unfamiliar, the restaurant serves a standard, pre-fixe menu of bread , a salad, frites, and steak. This is where things fell flat for me. The bread is a hard loaf in a paper bag. Maybe an ode to traditional serving, but no one offered to cut the bread nor were we provided a bread knife... my dining mate didn't want to work that hard to get any bread... inconvenient and wasted. The salad... I wasn't at all a fan of the dressing. It was very vinegary and pungent... not at all balanced. The frites were cooked to pure perfection; however, they lacked seasoning. The steak... this is where I was totally disappointed. While the steak was cooked to the right temperature (medium rare), it was sooooooo chewy, no marble... I found myself spitting out tough parts. Maybe Whole Foods' grass fed ribeyes have me spoiled, but this wasn't at all what I would expect of a restaurant that specializes in steak. My beverages (tequila daisy and traditional margarita) were uneventful. I also didn't feel they were balanced. The customer service was excellent. They create a warm and welcoming environment... this is a very romantic venue. Maybe come, enjoy the frites and a cocktail and stare into your lover's eyes

As for the buffet, the food was okay overall. The standouts for me were definitely the fried chicken, mac & cheese, and waffles. Those were the winners! I wasn't really a fan of the eggs or pancakes, but there were enough options to find something I enjoyed. Now that Crown of Courage drink?! Whew! They were NOT playing around with the liquor. It was STRONG, so consider yourself warned! The vibe inside was chill and laid-back, and the live DJ was playing some really good music, which definitely helped set the mood for Sunday brunch. Overall, I'd come back for the vibes, music, fried chicken, mac & cheese, and maybe another Crown of Courage... but next time I'll make sure I'm not driving.
