Honestly, I adore Apres Diem. Every time I go, I have a lovely experience and a delicious meal. It's the perfect casual neighborhood bistro with a Mediterranean / European flair to the food and an upscale casual ambiance. Apres Diem is located in Midtown Promenade, the busy little strip mall off on Monroe that's also home to Landmark Arts Cinema, The Highlander, The Independent, etc. There is a parking lot for the promenade but it can get really full, especially on movie opening nights. (I came to this theater to see Black Panther on opening night and had to street park quite a ways away!) With a large open-air patio, an equally large winding covered patio, a bar area and several separate dining rooms, the restaurant is LARGE but somehow still feels pretty intimate. Service is good, maybe not great, but I've never had any issues worth remarks here. The best thing of all? The menu! In particular, they offer yummy small plates for sharing (looking at you, tomato Montrachet, and you, pâté). There are usually some interesting cocktail offerings as well. All in all, the perfect place for a evening glass of wine and snackie while you debate going to a film next door, or for just enjoying a meal outside before the sun sets. read more

Fantastic late(ish) night eats with a patio! The staff made great recommendations and the food was delicious! Great beer/wine list as well. Will definitely be back again. read more

Food is bomb! Low key atmosphere. Hidden gem. Plenty of outdoor seating. Positive vibes. Nice servers. Fries have fresh garlic & parsley flakes. Yummy! The roasted portobello sandwich was juicy, the eggplant was cooked perfectly, the sun dried tomato mayo was the truth, and this was the best focaccia bread I've ever had. The bread the soft and flaky like a croissant. The blackened chicken wrap was one of the best wraps my friend has ever eaten, he says. It was made with love with the grill marks on the tortilla, fresh avocado, the garlic aoili was pure delight, and the goat cheese was smooth and delicious! read more

We visited Apres Diem on a Friday night, and while we weren't overly impressed we had an average dining experience. The place is huge with a grand outdoor patio, bar area and a medium size dining room. We chose the dining room and had our choice of seats. Our waitress appeared to be working both dining room and patio tables so she was scarce at time. Nonetheless, our meals came out within a reasonable time frame and was served hot. We ordered: Salmon Farfalle- My first bite of one or two pieces of bow-tie pasta was simply palatable. However, as I stirred the dish into the cream sauce I enjoyed its lip smacking effect. Beef Short Rib- My husband didn't get the same level of satisfaction from this dish. For a dish braised in tamarind, it lacked tangy taste he had anticipated. One thing that definitely stood out was the music, which makes the atmosphere so lively. Also, on Wednesdays they have Live Jazz and Tuesday to Sunday expect different DJs. Indulge in $5 Tapas on Tuesdays! Menu 4/5 Service 2/5 Taste 3/5 Location 5/5 (PB1) read more

FAV BRUNCH SPOT IN ATL! Also love it because its conveniently located in west midtown (ample parking!!), great nightlife vibes for their amazing drinks and food, and also because they're open late (Until 2AM on weekends and 12AM on weekdays) What we ordered: Crab Cake Benedict ($14)- Comes with 2 medium sized crab cakes served with 2 poached eggs on top, with spinach, hollandaise and english muffin on the side. PERFECT! Literally, never had a better crab benedict and egg combo before AH IT WAS SO GOOD AND FRESH! Lobster Scramble Sandwich ($15)- Scrambled eggs, shiitake mushroom, spinach, tomato served in a croissant. Huge portion size as well, very generous on the lobster too. Tasted amazing!! Service isn't bad. Great outdoor seating for a sunny beautiful weather. The texan in me loved the portion sizes and its reasonable price so I will definitely be back! read more

I have brought my Meet-Up group to your restaurant five times in the past six or so years. There were never any complaints about the service or the food. We ranged in size from 14 people to 8 people. We always asked for separate checks and your wait-people said it was not a problem. I arrived last night with 7 guests and myself. When the waitress approached the table, I asked if we could have separate checks. The waitress said she could only give one check but she could run everyone's card for an equal amount. I asked her if she would bring me the itemized check and I would separate it for each guest so they would hand her their card and their total bill amount. She said that was fine. We finished our meal and I got the check. With provided paper and pen, I separated everyone's tab and distributed the totals around the table. The waitress took everyone's card/cash and the notes with each tab to run at the register. She returned a few minutes later to inform me that the total was $30 short and said, This is why we don't like doing this here! I told her I have brought this group here 5 times before and separate checks were not a problem. She said she had worked here for 10 years and with the old computer system they had never been able to do "separate checks". I did not want to argue about this point. One of my guests pulled his credit card out and told her to put the $30 on it. This made the situation even more awkward. We all started handing him cash. I knew I was not $30 off on the check, so I reviewed the itemized bill. I saw that there was an extra $20 entree on the tab. 9 entrees and 8 guests. By this time everyone had signed their charge receipts and ADDED more tips to cover the missing $30. All she said was.....oops. She took Steve's card back to refund $20 onto it, I think. I was never clear on what happened with Steve's reimbursement.... Anyway the waitress not only got the $55 20% large party gratuity, but she also picked up around $25 more. This whole trainwreck ruined my evening and I had to apologize to everyone more than once. It was just so unnecessary. I would suggest that you put this new policy about no individual checks on parties larger than 6 at the bottom of your menu and place a sign on the maitre 'd podium.... unless this is not true and your waitress was just being lazy. I emailed this message to the management of the restaurant. I got no response. I will never step foot in this place again. read more

My boyfriend made us reservations here for Valentine's Day. It was a really nice place small and intimate. The menu was special made for the evening and they had a few special dishes. We ordered a pecan salad it was really good. I had the salmon pasta and he had the steak and lobster. It was really good and the wait wasn't long even though it was busy. The drink menu was also nice. I had a hot toddy because I was sick and it made me feel a little better. The dessert was also good we had red velvet and strawberry short cake. We had a three course meal and the price was still good for two people. I would come back again. read more

I have NEVER had a bad meal here!! The prices are fantastic and the food is wonderful. The servers are always cordial and prompt. Desserts are amazing. Bagel and lox's are always great, as well as the omelets for brunch. The salads are fresh and filling. The sandwiches are my favorite, especially Salmon Ciabatta, either fries or salad pair perfect for it, but they always have a great soup option available for the day. Never had a problem getting a table even if it's busy. Wine and cocktails are fantastic. Do yourself a favor, if you haven't been there. GO THERE TODAY! read more

Server forgot about us early on in the meal. Cocktails are decent and I imagine that's why people go, but there are better places to eat.

I had a really good experience! The food and portions were great as was the service! I was seated within 5 minutes by the friendly hostess. Veronica was not far behind offering water and to take my drink order! BTW she was extremely friendly and professional. I ordered the Adult Coffee Chiller, an iced coffee drink with Baileys and Dark Rum. Honestly, I wasn't a fan! It wasn't sweet at all! However, after I added some sugar it was okay! The crab cakes were pretty good as an appetizer and so was the Salmon Benedict. I wasn't a huge fan of the cheese grits. They weren't at all creamy! But taste wise they were okay! All in all, where the food missed the mark, superb service made up for it!! Food was brought out pretty timely and dirty dishes cleared off promptly! It was a bit pricey.... $50 but I do plan on going back because I want to try the French Toast! It would really be nice to have a soy-free vegan "meat" option! read more

I have been begging my fiancé to bring me here after a lunch date with a close friend, the first time I went my friend had the lobster croissant sandwich and I had the crab cakes . I didn't really care for the crab cakes but I knew I had to go back for the lobster croissant!!!! So finally on my birthday my fiancé brought me here his reason for not wanting to come before was because he didn't see anything on the menu he wanted . Well to his surprise he found a few things ! They have veggie sausage which is a plus and he ordered French toast . As for me I finally got to get my lobster croissant sandwich !!!!! I was thrilled as I sipped my mimosa on the balcony !!!!! My food was everything I wanted it to be but I couldn't help myself from eating his food . They were both so good !!! I want to go back and get what my fiancé had it was a great brunch and a nice atmosphere to celebrate my birthday ! read more

I was in town for a work related trip. A friend recommended this spot. I must say it was the cutest, most quaint little restaurant ever! We ate outside and the ambience was perfect to unwind after a busy workday! Food was delicious, portion sizes were huge! I enjoyed sitting outside, but inside was an amazing live jazz bad! My only issue was that our waitress would pop by ask for our order then disappear for long periods of times! We learned to order and request everything when she was present!! Maybe a few frequent visits would be helpful. Overall, great experience! read more

I absolutely love how cute and very European this restaurant is. The whole atmosphere is very relaxing and fun and vibrant. The outdoor courtyard is huge and very welcoming.

My friend and I attended the Beltline pub crawl on 3/4/17 and Apres Diem was one of the check-in locations. We met here 30 minutes before check-in to have lunch. We were able to seat ourselves and chose a table in the covered patio section. It wasn't long before our server came to take our order. It was a little chilly so I ordered a hot chocolate. The whipped cream levels on my hot chocolate were impressive! It was very tasty and really hit the spot as I consumed my turkey avocado club sandwich which was also very tasty. But not as tasty as the shrimp, scallops and grits that my friend ordered. Don't get me wrong, I would definitely order the sandwich again, but the shrimp, scallops and grits were delicious! Because we had some pub crawling to do, we did not stay long but I will definitely be back for brunch. read more

Why do strip mall restaurants always have a vibe to them? A vibe that says I am from the 90s and I don't care to upgrade. That says I am casual even if I'm trying to be French. That says come here for a casual corporate lunch, but nothing more. I think I had a turkey and avocado sandwich and a baked brie appetizer. The food wasn't bad, just very standard. And the inside was sort of dimly lit, unfortunately more in a musty way than a romantic way. read more

Let me say I'm a huge fan. This may be the point where I'm starting to feel bad that 90% of my reviews are five stars, because there's no way for me to give this place six. Started off with Montrachet in tomato soup, and may I say that they did NOT go easy on the amount of chese they gave us. Three VERY generous chunks of delicious goat cheese complimented the tomato and french baguette extremely well. The tea is freshly brewed. There are cool herbs and plants being grown along the patio. They split our meal into separate plates for us. the cool and rare international music (Ashley heard an artist she recognized from years ago, that combines memphis and african sounds) matched our curiously accented waitress. nice touches. I can't think of anything that WASN'T interestingly awesome. The special we had, beef medallions with pesto cream sauce....to die for. Maybe I'm just a huge fan of such things, but the extraordinarily tender beef absolutely helped. All of this in an hour's lunch time. And for like $10. Good thing there's like 6 other things that immediately caught my eye cau'se I'm definitely wanting to go back soon. read more

Fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice makes me tremendously happy. Apres Diem's is wonderfully fresh and pulpy and a glass of it made my afternoon. That, and the wifi.

Oh yes, Stephen G, we do indeed! read more

Totally grossed out by the service here. Waited over 30 minutes and a server never came- - asked a server and a host to send someone and still no one came for ANOTHER 15 minutes until we just had to leave. A full blown horrible experience and restaurant. I would never recommend eating here unless you just wanna sit and stare at their dirty outdoor seating and dark and damp interior. read more

One couple speaking Mandarin and another speaking an eastern European language next to me; TLC, Johnny Cash, and Dido playing through the speakers; full menu and bar at 3 o'clock in the afternoon; free wifi on my Mac; and wait staff that leave you alone while you look busy on the computer when you are really just writing reviews for Yelp! Yeah, that's Apres Diem; I usually come here during the off hours (2p-4p) for a late lunch. I usually get the hummus and a hefe. This is a great mid afternoon spot to get a meal and some work done. Don't be fooled by the name....late midday is the best time for this place. read more

Bistro food. Good drinks. Casual vibe. Easy on the wallet. Spring, summer, or fall, this is one of the best courtyard dining spots in the city. I know that's a big statement. But go and see for yourself. Hard to find but easy parking once you do (head for Trader Joe's and find the places to the right, like the Independent). read more

S'ok. Convenient for a lot of things like around a movie, or lunch, or dessert and coffee like we wanted, in this not-so-laid-back-anymore complex. Hopping on a Sat night but we got a table outside right away; our server wasn't harried but just seemed - awkwardly busy. Not bad, not great. There is probably a bit too much distance between outside tables and where servers have to get coffee, etc, based on the length of time it took to get those. You order desserts from your server, but you have to go inside to see what they have since they aren't on the menu. Bit odd. My friend picked the chocolate hazelnut pie cake thingy, and thought it was ok; I thought it was too dry to have a second bite. Lightly whipped cream made me think that part was made in house and the chocolate drizzle made it perfect. Based on our order, I didn't try the red velvet cake that piqued my interest (the dryness thing) and something tells me the cheesecake options are better picks. It's no Cafe Intertmezzo c. 1995 but it's an ok choice in these parts. read more

Consistently good food and service in a relaxed setting. I have been here multiple times. Each time I leave satisfied. Most recently I came on a Monday when they were serving 1/2 off select bottles of wine and $7 mussels. The mussels were plentiful in a flavorful white wine broth! Easily shareable between 2-3 people. The selected malbec paired nicely with the mussels. Next, I had the chicken rigatoni with chorizo. It too was a large portion size. The pasta was cooked perfectly and tossed in a delicious cream sauce. The chicken and chorizo added a nice flavor to the dish. On other occasions, I have tried their sandwiches (all very good). I routinely sit outside on the patio (which has ample room) when weather permits. It's great place to spend a relaxing evening with friendly service and excellent food. Can't wait to go back. read more

After Screen on the Green got rained out, I went to Apres Diem with Stephanie S., Nikki K., Blake B. and Larissa G. (followed later with Justin B.). The place is unexpectedly cute - unexpected because it's located in a strip mall. But when you walk in, it's cool (lots of air conditioning - yay!) and dark - the cuisine is European and Mediterranean, but the look of the place is much more Mediterranean in feel. The low lights, warm-colored walls created a great vibe to catch up with old (or new) friends. There were a number of different items to choose from on the menu - I went with the salmon sandwich which was yummy. I was initially concerned with portions because the sandwich and side salad looked a little small, but it definitely filled me up. They have a nice selection of wine and beer - a few German and Belgian beers. The staff were all really nice and friendly, and the service was prompt. If I'm ever back in Atlanta, I'll definitely be back at Apres Diem... read more

So, I went out with some friends tonight to Apres Diem and sat outside on the patio and it was truly a lovely night, despite the fact that this place is situated in a shopping center next to a movie theater, but it still has this dark, cozy ambiance to it that somehow overrides the aforementioned fact. Anyway, I asked for pasta with a vegan marinara sauce and got something completely different (that obviously had cream in the sauce) and they very nicely took it from me and within ten minutes produced an assuredly vegan pasta dish. It was okay, but at that point I wasn't entirely hungry anymore. So my friends offered me their own reviews of their food- one said her food was tasty but the bread (served with a dish of cheese tortellini) was hard as a rock, another said her shrimp salad was also good, except the croutons looked and tasted more like a piece of overly fried tofu, and my new British friend had no complaints about his steak, except that he doesn't understand why, in America, when you say you want your steak rare, it comes well-done. But he cleaned his plate so I think he was satisfied with his meal. But no one complained about the hummus and pita bread! This place has always been good for a first date situation, or for friends to get together and drink some lovely wines from their extensive menu and share appetizers and amazing desserts. But, I will say this (in order for first date, first time patrons not to look like an ass trying to find the place) it is behind Trader Joe's on Monroe, just drive down the street to the right of the Trader Joe's parking lot and you will see it on the first floor of a two-story shopping center. read more

Lovely outside patio with plenty of space! Great ambiance, friendly staff. Great for dates or for small groups - the location will make you want to stay and have really good conversation. Their sandwiches are all excellent, and their appetizers make for great options if you want to drink and graze a bit. The phyllo wrapped brie with honey, almonds, and fruit is especially generous and delicious. It's always funny when the side salad is one of your favorite things. Their light dressing and hearty greens is perfect for a side that doesn't weigh you down. read more

I am a fan of Apres Diem! This restaurant is a great place to chill and relax with friends before going into Midtown or to a movie next door. They have a good amount of outdoor and indoor seating. I like that they have fans outside that helps during the summer months. The food is pretty tasty. The highlights are the calamari and the mussels! The marina sauce for the calamari is bold and flavorful. The mussels are in the most delicious garlic sauce! The only down sides are the seating in the indoor dining room and the restrooms. The seating in the indoor dining area is cramped and seats are close together. On a packed night getting through the restaurant is difficult. The bathrooms weren't as clean as I think they should be. Overall, I will still come back and continue to enjoy my experience here read more

Man. It's sad when one of your former hangouts, go TO's, date night staples starts to head south. Its been happening for years but my last visit solidified it, I will never eat at Après again. It started a few years ago when I ordered my staple salmon farfalle dish and it fell flat. Poorly seasoned and over cooked I was horrified. I loved this dish! They told me it was the chef. I believed them. I came back. It was the chef. I was happy again. So I came back. The food was good, the service was awful. Bad service is far more unforgivable to me since it's something you can certainly manage better than a certain chef's interpretation of a recipe. So I didn't go back for a while until last week when I stopped in for drinks at a friends birthday party. I could tell the waitress felt overwhelmed. She kept forgetting drink orders. I knew she was rude when she expressed her disdain to members of the party that they had only rsvp'd for 15 and we had a party of 18. I'm not saying she's wrong, I'm saying you never say that to customers. You complain in the back about your now ever swelling tip but also increasing workload. You don't say it to the people you're servicing. I asked the bartender about the wine he was serving me. As a wine buyer there are just some basics I know. He lied to me instead of saying he didn't know, which I would have respected. Things were moving very slowly even though it was not a packed house. And the general attitude of the staff was lacking. If they don't fix this soon, a neighborhood eatery could be lost. Unfortunately I tweeted this and got several responses indicating that more folks are noticing the slow and painful decline of a formerly awesome locale. Maybe the new spot across the way will be better. Just hire more gifted and patient staff. read more

This place had me questioning my entire elementary school education and English degree. Allow me to expound... I read two signs as I approached the restaurant that stated, "Please Seat Yourself". In my part of the world, that means you're allowed to choose a table to your liking and place your hind parts in the chairs in a seated position at that particular table (or something of that nature). So, I did just that and picked a spot outside to enjoy the sunny weather. Since I was simply following the instructions on the sign, I couldn't figure out why sever after server completely ignored me. There were at least 3 of them assisting diners outside, and maybe 9-10 tables occupied at the moment. I thought, "Did I break some sort of protocol? Was I supposed to wait to be seated? Are my hind parts where they shouldn't be at this time?" So I got the attention of one of the servers to make sure I read the signs correctly. I started to question whether or not I could read or lost my comprehension skills somewhere in Midtown (depending on the activities, it could happen). Maybe I do know how to "read good", but my prescription contact lenses aren't working for me. He said that I did read the signs correctly, and that he would let one of the wait staff know that my table needs assistance. Okay cool, no biggie. 10 more minutes passed and no one even looked our way. I'm a patient girl (to a fault). But after 20 minutes of no love, I had to take my hind parts elsewhere *le sigh* read more

Attending Apres Diem you're often subject to a mixed bag of results. I'd say 70% of the time things work out just fine here, because the premise of the place is great: laid back cafe with indoor and patio seating, with a bit of a hipper edge than most other cafes, and a full bar. The food is definitely higher quality than other cafes: I almost always get the turkey sandwich, which is a surprisingly flavorful version of such a dish, and comes with salad rather than fries. The service is usually quick, if somewhat silly: because they've been rated as having the best looking staff in midtown, the guys that work here are often dudes who overdress and would kill to be European. The guy who served me last week had stonewashed jeans with slits cut all down the legs and I couldn't help staring at them. He probably thought I was checking out his junk, but I couldn't keep from laughing every time he turned around. On nights they often play the music so loud here that you can't think. I've gotten up and left because I couldn't hear someone speaking right beside me, which is lame. Overall though, a good place to go for a relaxing dinner and/or drink, especially before or after a movie at Midtown Art. read more

This was my second time at Après Diem, the first time was a few years back when my wife and I were craving a glass of wine and a dessert after seeing a movie at Landmark Midtown Arts cinema (which is in the same building) so we stopped in and had a wonderful, romantic evening. This time, we wanted an early dinner BEFORE catching our movie so we decided to revisit. We got there at about 6pm and the place was almost empty. We seated ourselves and someone brought us water and let us know that our server would be with us shortly. About five minutes later, our server came over to the table and we immediately stopped our conversation, looked up and smiled like we always do because we love talking to our servers, getting their tips/recommendations on the menu and just having the opportunity to meet new people! That's why we were disappointed when our server came over, didn't smile, didn't greet or welcome us, didn't introduce herself and just said, "would you like something other than water to drink?" Bummer. She did tell my wife that she liked her skirt but that was about as warm as she got the whole time. We ordered an appetizer of mussels, (they're half off on Mondays), but they took a while to come out. When they did come they were swimming in a pretty delicious sauce and were okay tasting but a few of them were a little sour and funky smelling so I stopped eating after a handful or so. Then our waitress disappeared. The restaurant did get a little busier so I kinda understood but my wife and I were in a slight hurry (I didn't want to miss the movie premiere so I hoped she would hurry.) Finally, she came back, took our orders and then left again. This time it took even longer but we had only ordered burgers and we were some of the first people in the restaurant so I was a bit confused as to what was taking so long. When our burgers came they looked and tasted pretty good although nothing spectacular. We both ordered the Angus beef which comes topped with mushrooms, Gorgonzola and with fries and a side salad. The fries were very crispy and delicious which I appreciated and the side salad was...a salad...nothing special. The burger itself was tasty, just needed some kind of sauce as it was a little dry, I drowned mine in ketchup and it was fine. We thought about having a dessert because we sat right next to the dessert case that was filled with some delicious looking goodies but after our longish wait and our waitress who was less than friendly, we decided we just wanted to get out of there. All in all, not a bad experience...more like, "Eh...". read more

Love this spot- haven't been here for a while as I no longer live in the ATL. Got back when visiting friends and happy to say I still love it. The selection of beverages is perfect, for some bubbles to go along withe a charcuterie plate. Then my favorite - the salad nicoise. Get it, it's tasty- and filing for a salad. We sat on the patio which is manageable even in the heat with the fans blowing. Service is friendly always but not overly so- meaning you never feel as though you you are being rushed through your meal. I'll be back for sure! read more

Apres Diem offers a comprehensive assortment of consistently good food in a casual, welcoming environment. Food: The menu at Apres Diem contains options that will please most reasonable palates. Both their lunch and dinner menus include soups, appetizers, sandwiches, salads, pastas, and entrees. They also have a full bar and a decent selection of gourmet desserts. I've dined at Apres Diem on at least a half dozen ocassions and have always found the food to be consistently well-prepared and plated. The food is by no means exceptional, but still worthy of a return visit. Service: The staff at Apres Diem are all friendly, but can frequently be inefficient. It always seems that the staff to table ratio is too high to ensure any reasonable level of service; this often leads to inordinatley long wait times and multiple errors in the ordering process. Atmosphere: Incredibly welcoming and conducive to everything from group gatherings to intimate date nights. They also have an extermely large patio with ample shade and fans. Cost: Moderately pricey, but typical of the area, Most appetizers run between $7 and $10, while entrees run betwee $15 and $20. Other: The real selling point of Apres Diem for me is its close proximity to the Midtown Arts Cinema. Accordingly, it's an ideal place for a pre- or post-movie dinner or drinks. read more
