I always forget about this place but it's truly cozy and charming and fun. Stopped in for dessert - there's a dessert case with a rotating selection of yummy things. The bartenders are always fun and kind and pour great cocktails... opted for hot toddies and for spiked coffees on a cold evening and no mistakes were made. Unassuming and tucked away, in the best way - don't miss it. read more

I came here a little over a week ago on a Thursday night about 8:30 PM with a friend for a late dinner. We ordered a few menu items and some adult libations. I ordered the Nicoise salad. The order I placed came to the table and looked appealing, however the fish for the salad was rubbery and it unfortunately had to be sent back to replace the fish. The 2nd salad brought out was a fresh salad but was dressed much differently than the first (perhaps there was different expediter for the 2nd salad). The lack of consistency between the two salads was a bit bizarre as I did not ask for any substitutions or changes from the menu version (even the photo of the salad on the website compared to what I have posted is different). Visual aspects aside, unlike a typical green salad, this Niçoise salad is made with both rice and greens. A nice way to change it up as the rice tends to hold the flavor of the dressing. Overall this dish was filling and a different take from the traditional Niciose. ($16) I also ordered the soup of the day which was a yellow curry soup. I particularly enjoy this type of soup as it is light enough to eat on a warm day but also meets that soul comfort food standard for when the weather's gone chill and you need a pick me up. The soup wasn't out of the ordinary spectacular but wasn't terrible either. It was very average ($4) Atmosphere: The establishment was part bar, part lounge and outdoor eatery. The lounge/ eating area to the left of the D.J. booth and bar where my friend and I sat was for the lack of a better word 'kitschy'. Overall, it was an okay experience from the food to the service but if in the area again, I would probably choose another establishment to dine at. read more

I've only been here twice in several years but my daughter really wanted to go here for dinner after her and a friend went. We were told to sit wherever we wanted which we choose in main dining. We waited 10 minutes to be recognized as multiple employees kept walking by. We felt very ignored and waited awhile to get the check so we could get out of there. read more

used to be one of my favorite restaurants but now you have to pay some bogus company to park in the almost vacant enormous lot and if you don't see the small sign indicating this, the company will illegally access your dmv records and send you a violation ticket in the mail. All these businesses in the area are fine with this stupidity. read more

Although I had visited for dinner many times in the past, I had never considered Apres for an even though my sister and I always loved the "lounge" area. Sure enough after contacting their event director Shannon via email, I learned the lounge was bookable! I ended up grabbing it to throw my sister an incredible 50th birthday. The space was perfect and the waitress assigned to the room was so kind and attentive. It allowed the perfect atmosphere for people to "trickle in" over the course of an hour, and then Shannon even went above and beyond to help us print a custom limited menu of our favorite items with a happy birthday note at the top. I was really floored at hour wonderful it all turned out. They even helped us cut our outside cake we brought in from my sisters favorite ( a piece of cake) and serve it to the guests. Above and beyond was the name of the game that night. Thank you Shannon and Apres team!!! read more

Apres Diem - Lounge room - Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This place only deserves two stars, and that's mainly due to its cute ambiance. The server was slow to bring our orders and frequently forgot items. When management arrived, they claimed that the server was seasoned and that were delaying our items to give us time to finish our appetizer, but we hadn't requested that. Even if that was the case, delaying it 45 minutes is excessive. We were on a tight schedule for lunch between meetings, so a more attentive staff would have been appreciated, especially since the restaurant was empty. The food was decent, but I had to take it to go because I didn't have time to eat it there. read more

I brought my friend to Apres Diem after coming here before and loving the vibe and food. This place is conveniently located in a retail complex so there is lots of free parking. What I love about this restaurant is the super cute date night type lit patio area. There's fans and even though it's hot and humid it really helps at night. So naturally we sat outside were seated right away by the hostess and our waitress came over pretty quickly as well. To my delight they still had that tropical spritzer on their specials menu it was delicious. For appetizers we split crabcakes and the brie cheese and baguette. I was a little disappointed in the crabcakes because they came out cold and somewhat under cooked. But the brie cheese and baguette were delicious, it came with half an apple and a side of cucumbers and tomatoes pretty tasty. For entrées my dinner companion opted for the salmon chibatta sandwich and a side salad. He said it was pretty good and had good flavor. For my entrée I got something off the specials menu which was sautéed scallops with a cauliflower rice purée (tasted like grits) in like a lemon cream sauce. It was so good and the perfect size for someone who's not as hungry or had two appetizers prior lol. But the dishes fairly small comes with about three little scallops. To cap it off we ended our meals with dessert. I got the Grand Marnier cheesecake and my dinner companion got the chocolate raspberry mousse. Both were absolutely delicious. read more

I've been here twice and both experiences overall were great. The grandhattan drink was a hit, and the lemon drop was pretty good. We also tried the calamari which was good. Dessert was also tasty. I always get the Napa salad with salmon on the side. I took a star off because the 1st time the salmon was a nice portion but the 2nd time it was almost half the size. Overall nice restaurant for good quality food. read more

Visiting for a conference and some of our group is local. So we came to eat and it did not disappoint. The staff was great, friendly, and fast. The food was amazing. I had a salmon sandwich. I've never had one so moist yet crispy. The salad had awesome flavor dressing and getting the other half fries was everything i needed. I'm not a big atlanta fan but I'll for sure eat here next time where in town. read more

This is a fun place! You can just park anywhere in the massive lot behind Trader Joe's for free. Sitting outside is really nice. They have a great outside patio that is sectioned off with lots of plants and trees. So you feel like you're still in the restaurant, but you get to enjoy outside too. They didn't have a lot of people working so service was a tad slow, but our waitress was helpful and nice. Food was decent. Little bit expensive and nothing incredible. I got the rigatoni which was good. Great location as you can catch a movie at the theater next door, or go upstairs to the bar above them for a drink. I'd probably go back, and overall I enjoyed my experience here. Good spot for a date or to catch up with a friend. Apparently they also have brunch too, so I'd like to go back to try that out. read more

Apres Diem is an all around wonderful restaurant. The food is delicious and unique. I just had the Diem Omelet which is made with smoked chorizo, bacon and cheese. I got the optional hollandaise sauce as well. Another bonus at Apres Diem is the bar. Tracy and Coraline are excellent for the Sunday brunch crowd. Be sure to visit with them. Furthermore, Coraline practices safe handling of all things. She'll even give you a straw without touching it. read more

I've been dining at this fabulous restaurant for many years. Brunch, lunch & dinner are ALWAYS excellent! Service is efficient and friendly. Food is excellent and consistent.

Don't miss the incredible desserts! read more

Great food and service. Really have enjoyed getting to know this place for both brunch and dinner. Delicious mezze plate and nice selection of entrees that cater to all tastebuds and needs. Highly recommend! Nice big outdoor patio and comfortable indoor seating with nice atmosphere read more

I was in the area to see a movie at the theater next door but due to traffic we missed 15 minutes and decided to go to the next show. To kill time why not have lunch and some libations. There is outdoor seating but we chose indoor because it's so hot. As soon as we stepped in I was greeted and told we could seat ourselves. The bar is to the left. There are bar tables with high chairs and there are regular tables and booths to the right. I fell in love with the place almost immediately. Why? It was intimate and had a familiar bar smell that took me back to my home in Philly. The only problem I have with place is that we were virtually ignored for 20 minutes aside from a young lady bringing us water when we first sat down. I can understand everyone being busy running each others tables. But someone should have noticed our table had nothing on it because we sat close to where they pull food from the kitchen. We were finally taken cared of by Karen. She apologized to us and we ordered Lemon Drop Martinis and Calamari. The bartender in there is the bomb. That drink almost knocked me on my %$@&. Yes it was that good. We both ordered Angus Burgers no egg with salad and fries. Best dang burger I've had in a long time. So so good. My dessert was Kalua Cheesecake. They dressed the plate up for me for my birthday. It was delicious. This is the kind of place that only the local folks who live in the neighborhood would know about. It is a gem. They also play live jazz music. Ohhh I felt like I was in New York in the summer time. It was all so lovely. Everyone was in a fantastic mood. I will definitely return. read more

Customer service: 3 stars; it was friendly but we were frequently forgotten about. Food: 3 stars; the mussels were fantastic but the Greek tapas plate was dreadful. Drinks: 5 stars; I don't drink like that but my date does and he said they were outstanding. Price point: 3 stars: 4 drinks, 2 soft drinks, 1 appetizer, 2 entrees, tip $120. I thought the whole experience was meh and not worth it. Cleanliness; 3 stars; could use a little more attention in certain areas. Overall; it was decent. It didn't knock my socks off. It's a nice spot to meet up with someone and grab a drink and talk junk on the patio. But besides that; I came, I tried, and most likely won't be back unless someone else is paying lol sorry... I wanted to like you guys but it just wasn't that good. But considering how crowded they were I'm sure my indifferent review won't make much difference. read more

Apres Diem - Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Revisiting a local favorite the past few weeks as we venture back out to restaurants. One of the largest patios in Midtown if not all of Atlanta. The menu has sandwiches, salads and a few entrees as well. I seem to remember a dessert counter that is pretty tempting but I haven't looked for it recently. I've had the turkey sandwich and the Greek salad add salmon. The salad was dressed well and has a lot of my favorites. The salmon was especially good last night and I'll be wanting it again soon. Service is always great. The restaurant is located on the lower level by a movie theater. The parking lot is large but is shared by the theater and several other restaurants. Very accessible. Best part is they are open till 11 when few decent place are open past 9. read more

Apres Diem is a place where you find the Sofas, local art and a heated patio set with the scene for nightly DJ's plus Continental food and drinks. This was my first time visiting. We had a good time and wonderful visit with our friends. The environment was laid back. It has a nice elegant upscale feel to it but at the same time for comforting and relaxing. Service was great and so was the food and drinks. Our bartender was full of life and fun. Great, friendly wait staff. They have live jazz every Wednesday 8:30 PM to 11:30 PM. Dave Frackenphol trio has been playing for 18 years and running at Apres Diem. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. Part of the patio seating is uncovered, and there can be a scramble when a summer thunderstorm rolls in. A great overall experience. Perfect place to take a date, or have a small friendly get together. The Midtown Arts Cinema is right next door. In good weather they have one of the nicer outdoor seating areas. Prices are on part for the area. Come prepared to search for parking. The restaurant is located in a busy shopping center with many popular attractions like other bars and Trader Joe's. Good bar with beers on tap. Delicious specialty drinks like a boozy caramel hot cocoa on a cold night. I recommend the warm drinks in the cold winter months. The Scallop and Lobster Ravioli from here which were amazing in taste. We also had Tiramisu for dessert, it was exquisite. An absolute must visit for locals and the place you show off to your out of town guests or friends. The place is a real hidden gem. I will definitely go again. read more

I chose to pick this restaurant due to the pictures on Instagram. The pictures is what draws you in and the food and atmosphere is what keeps you coming back. The restaurant is located in a retail complex with tons of parking and it is free. We went on Mother's Day and of course it was a bit busy but we were able to get a wonderful table outside. We were seated in the shade and outside and too me that is the perfect combination. Drink menu is/was huge, so everyone will be happy with finding something off of the menu. Service was not bad at all and the food was delish. read more

I am so thankful that there are still restaurants, in Atlanta, that have the capacity to provide outdoor dining even in the Winter. And Apres Diem has mastered the way to give you their superior dining experience in the midst of a pandemic. A friend and I were able to enjoy Sunday brunch, on their patio under the warmth of their heat lamps. Now, grant it the sun was out but it's still January in Georgia so the days can be crisp. The staff were all very friendly and adhered to the Covid guidelines. Between guests they sanitized the tables and wore mask. I had a slight issue with my dish but my server, Veronica, was really accommodating. A lot of businesses don't realize that customer service will make a patron a regular and the way she handled me and my situation was above standard. As for the food, I ordered the Diem Omelet, which was packed full of smoked chorizo, bacon, and cheddar cheese with a side of fruit. The omelet was very filling and flavorful. The kick from the chorizo combined with the bacon gave the dish a nice flavor. This coupled with a bottle of sparkling Rose' made for a refreshing Sunday afternoon! read more

Delicious! I had such a great experience at this spot. They are diligent about COVID-19 measures with touch less menus, sanitation, and distancing. They have a heated sunroom/ patio with a plastic to keep the wind at bay. The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. I order a lobster croissant egg sandwich and it was devine. Lobster chunks were massive. My friend order the shrimp scallops and grits. I tried it and omg it was great!! I would definitely recommend this spot if you want some really good food. Also added plus was that it wasn't even expensive. I love love love this spot!! read more

We arrived after 10pm and asked whether we had to pay for parking. The staff told us not to, because the lot wasn't monitored after 10pm. Of course, a couple weeks later 'Professional Parking Managament' sent a parking citation for $85. Be careful going to any of the businesses in that shopping center - they will prey on you for an easy extra couple of bucks. read more

Been here so many times it's embarrassing. I think the food depends on who is cooking that day. Chicken wrap-- you forgot the goat cheese and aioli. Not sure how you do that, but that essentially makes the wrap a tortilla and grilled chicken. Why bother? Caesar salad was awful. Old and soggy salad this time. Sometimes it's awesome. And sometimes it's terrible. I really wish you all would update your menu with some new/interesting items. It's been nearly the same menu for years now. Would be nice to see some new things. I'll probably just back off on this place for a while. read more

We came in on a Saturday night. Cute little Spot! Not very busy. We were seated quickly. They have covered outside seating with a heater. We sat inside though right next to the desserts. They looked delicious. We had the salmon farfalle which was very good. Nice light creamy sauce with chunks of salmon. I would've taken a pic but it was very dimly lit and food porn would not have been that great. We also had the turkey burger that I'm told was very delicious.

Great place for brunch. Not sure why it doesnt have more stars. We got wonderful food and wonderful service. My boyfriend and I came for brunch to celebrate our anniversary. We made a reservation through Yelp, which was very simple. I got the crab cake benedict w/ side of fruit, my bf got the lobster scramble sandwich w/ side of potatoes, and we shared the baba ghanoush app. Everything was delicious! The eggs on the crab cake benedict was perfect. It had a wonderful runny yolk. The crab cake had a very substantial amount of crab, it was not filled with flour. The lobster scramble had very large pieces of lobster, the croissant was very soft and buttery. The baba ghanoush was also very delicious, the pita bread was super soft. Loved the experience. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Food is delicious. I got the crab cake benedict with potatoes. It was delicious and also very filling. I was expecting crispy potatoes for some reason, so I was surprised that they weren't crispy at all, but they were still good. I also got a latte, and it was solid. Everyone at my table loved their food as well. The brunch cocktails are quite refreshing and come in cute Apres Diem wine glasses. The service is a tad slow, but overall they're nice and get you what you need. read more

You can count on Apres Diem for delicious eats with friendly service. A neighborhood gem, for sure! I used to live around the corner and would frequent this spot years ago, and last week I had the opportunity to revisit and let me tell you--not much has changed! The vibe is super chill, casual and friendly. Plenty of seating both inside and out. My lunch consisted of a gyro and greek side salad. The gyro was delicious all the way to the last bite! Nice crunchy lettuce with generous slices of gyro meat, fresh tomatoes and tzatziki sauce a-plenty. The greek salad was fresh and served with big chunks of feta, my fave. Since it's my birthday month, I splurged and ordered the cuatro leches cake...no regrets! It was super moist and magical. That dessert case is not to be missed! There were so many decadent options, it's hard to say no! So don't! :) Apres Diem is in the Dining Out Atlanta Passbook so you buy one entree, get one free. Can't beat that! read more

My date wanted me to try this place so we came here for coffee and dessert after we had dinner elsewhere. It was a cold, rainy night and freezing cold outside and the hostess/waitress said the only place we can sit is outside. Wow! There was literally no one else sitting outside in the rainy weather. Everyone was seated inside and there were plenty of tables available. Needless to say, the service here is absolutely atrocious and makes for a horrible dining experience. However, since my date said it was a "good" place I gave it a chance. We sat outside where the patio was covered and I continued to shiver and freeze while sipping on a mediocre cappuccino and a dry slice of cake. No thank you! read more
