I have lived in and near downtown Stone Mountain for years and had been wanting to try this place…read more FINALLY made it. Me and a few friends tried it and when I tell you this place is NOT what I thought, but in a good way! First off, our waiter Ted was fantastic. All of us were first timer so he broke everything down, gave us a few faces by patrons and his personal faves. He was patient with us and gave us the best customer service. The restaurant itself is very unique. I love they had a small seating area with a small stage close, there's a private dining area, a bar and table and booth seating. It's not a huge space but it is big enough to be comfortable and cozy. Wasn't loud and even when the artist came up to play music, it wasn't too loud it still blended well with the restaurant noise. Ted emphasized that everything in here is made from scratch except a few things. For starters we had fried okra and a colossal shrimp cocktail. They both were great starters. I had a whiskey sour as well which was really good. I had a hard time choosing but I wound up getting the prime rib sandwich with mashed potatoes, my sis did prime rib as well but with oxtail collard greens and my other sis had the surf and turf special. Everything was so good! It's a good portion of food. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals and the conversation. Downtown Stone Mountain has a hidden gem here, I'm already planning my trip back!

This restaurant is also owned by the same owners as the "The Oak Bar" on main street Stone Mountain…read moreVillage . The owner has some other restaurants downtown Decature as well The "Cherokee Rose", very nice ambient atmosphere good looking restaurant. However it appears to be Family run with close friends and their kids. The Staff is not very attentive, one bartender so long waits or missed over waiting to place a drink and food order No one's really educated on the menu when asked a question about the food items. They just slide a menu in front of you as a gesture - you read it if you want to know. I can't see the small print on these menus to save my life lol I invited a industry colleague for a business dinner Ok, food review they offer an oxtail protein in the collard greens "Yummy" however I didn't find oxtail in the collard greens anywhere. My guest ordered some cwing dinner that looked like a contraption. As far as the presentation was delivered. I decided on a liquid diet after seeing the food delivery Next week I personally stopped in-for lunch wanted to give this place a chance to rebound and my full attention on a fair review. I wanted to also make sure management was there. An older caucasian woman greets me well we have a cordial conversation about my previous experience and my embarrassment at such a nice looking restaurant She was unable to believe this happened at her restaurant. Just plain disbelief and raved about the kitchen and pride that goes into her food to later having to eat those words Again, limited menu what is up with the 4-5 items to chose from. I donot eat steak fries So I just ordered the burger - medium well - not burned and it had no venison mixed or blended meat added The burger came out with old brown tarnished lettuce I sent it back for fresh lettuce . She brought it back they added thousand island dressing when I specially asked for mayo on the side which was also provided. What is going on in the kitchen I took a bittersweet bite anyways and spat it out. Took my utensils which looks like a switch blade in a fairly nice restaurant. bad esthetics decisions I knifed out The center of the uncooked raw meat of the burger and waited patiently for the nice lady to find her way back over to me I offered to just pay and leave. She ask what was the problem . I uncovered the burger and allowed her to witness fir herself Her face turned beet red and quickly said no charge and stormed off to her kitchen where I am sure like "The Oak" there was a Waffle House griller reject acting as a chef " Pictures attached : I can't make my Experiences UP! #SMH you just can't get what you pay for anywhere these days Me being a restaurant consultants.

**This review is specifically for Overstory Rooftop Brunch**…read more Made a solo reservation on a Sunday to have brunch before seeing a show. The good parts didn't outweigh the not-so-good for me. 1. Located on the 9th floor of The Westin, BUT, parking is mad affordable, which is a big relief as usually hotel rooftops have a static valet parking fee for $25 or more. There is a garage right in front of the entrance and its 5 bucks for up to 4 hours. 2. Views - decent enough for the 9th floor, but mostly overlooks trees and some highways. There isn't much to actually look at as far as a skyline. I was here in the daytime though, maybe at night with whatever city lights coming in, it may be a lil more charming. 3. Ambience - the inside was really nice, the tables were big and seating was comfy, a combo of cushioned chairs and velvety booths or couches. nice decor, and the outside portion of the rooftop also seemed very spacious, with a big main area as well as seating & a few more tables down the side of the building. I went during the yacht rock brunch period, so there was a live DJ spinning old hits from the 70s/80s. the music was at a cool volume, not so loud that you can't hear anyone speak, but not too low like background music - loud enough that you feel like its okay to vibe out. 4. Food & Service - this is where it fell apart for me. when i was seated, it took about 15-20 minutes for my waitress to come and ask me what i wanted to drink. when she finally did, i realized this same woman had walked past me several times before, on the way to do nothing in particular. she didn't introduce herself but was polite. she brought out my coffee and took my order, it took an hour for my food to come out. and the place wasn't crowded. only 2 couples sitting outside and about 40% capacity ithe indoor section where I was. and the food was subpar. it all came out hot, BUT. chicken sausage was hard to bite because casing was burnt and tough. eggs were cooked with so much butter it just tasted like i was eating fluffy butter. biscuit was dry and couldn't possibly be homemade. 'parmesan potatoes' had a few sad dried dots of cheese and parsley but no seasoning whatsoever. i forced myself to eat about half. I live far from Duluth, so really no reason to come back. Maybe a nighttime hang with drinks only, on the outdoor terrace would be a slightly better experience. But I don't have to find out.

Yummy. Okay so y'all know how they talk about stripclubs…read morehaving the best food right?! Welp Food to go is right next to Strokers Strip club. They are the restaurant that services the club so boom I can try the food without seeing nudity - win for me - but I'm sure most of y'all want the nudity with the chicken lol. The parking lot at night was a little confusing because the strip club has valet. In the day time there were some parking spots. We tried a Turkey Burger combo, Ribeye Steak with loaded Potato and Hot Lemon Pepper Wings with fries. First the fries were very good. I'm such a fry snob so this was a very good sign. My burger was big, cooked properly and juicy. Yummy in my tummy. The HIM enjoyed his steak. I didn't try it and we both shared the wings and they were delicious. If you haven't tried them, try them. This is not a dine in restaurant hence the name so be prepared to either eat in your car or take it home. We never make it to the house with our food so I can't speak on the reheating factor. enjoy...

The food was good! However, they only give you one side of the plate in terms of portion size (mac…read more& cheese, rice) so you might want to order double. I'm usually not a big fan of chicken tenders, but my main focus was the mac and cheese since I'm pretty picky about it. It was amazing though! The wings were also a perfect 10/10. 4 stars for just giving me one side of the plate as a side lol do both sides. They do give you free waters! Thanks! FOOD PRICE: $30

We tried a bowl of the boiled peanuts first, which were pretty good. Then came the entrees. My husband ordered a burger, and I ordered wings. My lemon pepper wings were good. I would say they were a bit overdone but still enjoyable. The star of the show was the Bleu Cheese Ranch, because what?!? I asked for ranch, and she told me that they only served the combo. I was skeptical but said yes anyway. After one bite, I was skeptical no more. I wanted a tub of that to take home! Just a quick note about parking...Live Oak is in the heart of downtown Stone Mountain. There's street parking and a lot across the street available.

I ordered the turkey wings which come over rice, Mac and cheese and cabbage. The rice wasn't seasoned at all. I understand they usually combine it with a meat or gravy but salt and butter makes a huge difference. I would definitely get it with some kind of gravy, which I thought would come with it, but it didnt. Turkey wings didn't have much seasoning. Would not recommend or I would recommend getting gravy with it. The mac and cheese, corn bread, and cabbage were all delicious! The cabbage leaves could have been cut smaller but they were cooked to perfection! The guy that took my order was sweet and he did tell me to come back the next day and they would have cobbler available. The restaurant has indoor seating and a covered patio. Parking is not an issue since the plaza it is located in is not busy at all. I would come back to try their other meats or get a veggie plate.
