    The food is good, not a huge fan of their drinks or hookah but I like their happy hour

    Blu Cantina !! Truly a vibe! Location has free parking. IYKYK!! Blu cantina we went from a video we saw on TikTok. We went Sunday January 26. Years football showing. Yes it was packed but it had opening seating. The host wasn't at the post so you sat yourself where had open booth/table. Blu cantina has a happy hour menu from 12-7pm. Great priced items. As you can see the mild lemon pepper wings in the photo. Yes they were tiny. For happy hours price was $5 or $6. Small wings but for the price I mean hey. We ordered two different sets. Wings were good. Also with chicken quesadillas. They were okay won't order them again. They just felt rushed. Atmosphere is cut. Nice chill spot. Bar type food Will I return ? YESSSSS!! Just for vibes since they did have a dj that night.

    Tucked away in the camp creek marketplace, this place has ample parking and it's free. Something you don't find often in Atlanta. lol. From the outside it looks larger than what it is, but it's still a good size. When you walk in, there is a sign that says seat yourself. As a side note, since it's October, it is decorated for Halloween....a fun touch. There is a large bar and table seating sections. There is a good balance of small and large tables for different size groups. The server came right away with menus as soon as we sat down. They did have a happy hour from 3-7, but you do have to ask for the happy hour menu as they don't automatically provide it. I ordered the "big ass jolly rancher margarita", and a chicken quesadilla. One of those large margaritas was all I needed. The quesadilla is served with chips and salsa. To my surprise the chicken was so flavorful and so was the salsa. You can tell it's a roasted salsa and it's very mild for those who may not like spice. They do have music playing and it was a vibe. The music is loud but not so loud that you can't carry a conversation. Service was fast and friendly.

    AALIYAH made sure we had a time! She gave great service and was very personable. The drinks were good... wings were good. They give you a good portion with the nachos but they were missing something, a tad dry. We got a hookah and it was good and they kept the coals fresh. No DJ but Aaliyah kept the vibe going with her play list. If you are looking for a party type vibe this isn't necessarily it especially mid day on a Saturday but if you're the vibe you'll have a time after a few drinks.

    This is a lay low spot with good music and vibes. The food is actually good except for ONE BIG NO! (Picture attached). That was/is by far the most distasteful salsa I have ever tried. Our bartender Megan was pleasant and knowledgeable about the food and drinks here. The point is come but NO SALSA LOL

    The food is good. Not your traditional Mexican food, but it's Mexican with a twist. The surf and turf quesadillas or surf and turf nachos are amazing. Portion size is almost a large if you dine-in but even when you Uber eats your portion sizes are decent. The service is okay. If you're not in a rush, you would have no complaints because sometimes, SOME of the waitresses will watch you walk-in, watch you sit down, continue to talk to each other and then walk over after a significant amount of time and ask if you've been helped...NO! But I will add that once you finally do assigned a waitress, they are helpful and accessible. If you're looking for a lounge/bar type feel, but on the southside of Atlanta, then you will enjoy. Not crowded; plays music (maybe a little too loud); but it's a vibe. They have happy hour specials 4-7pm daily and if you're in to hookah, it's $20 during happy hour. They have TVs all over so if you're in to sports, you can watch the games. Parking is free as it's in a parking lot. This will definitely be my new spot whenever I'm looking to get out the house and grab food.

    The drinks in question

    Came here with my homegirl for an overdue yap sesh. We sat ourselves, but there was no clean table that was available for us. Service was good, but that wait time was so long. Food took ages to get to our table but was looking pretty good, then we ate it and it was nothing to write home about. Anywho, the drinks!!!! The ambiance!!! That's what you're coming here for honestly, it's a regular Mexican restaurant without it.. but I'd return.

    I haven't been at this place in a while it was very clean and the staff was attentive. My margarita was really good ! I like the chips and salsa -it was diff it was kinda sweet tasting but spicer as you eat more. The tacos were decent not spectacular but good. Now , the quesadillas- flavorful and seasoned but they were def dry. Idk what could a fixed it but they were dry. DJ was good and several big screens to view the games Overall I would be back

    Food is always reliably good. Nice portions at good price. The service was great. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about options. The restaurant has gone through its 3rd redesign and it is so nice. I love the remodel. More booths but still open if you want to dance. Bathroom is nice and clean. Beautiful work.

    If you're trying to catch a vibe you will enjoy this spot but if you're coming for the food or the service I don't recommend it. Parking is tight but manageable. There is a 2 hour limit for sitting at a table as well. The ambiance is nice though. I ordered shrimp tacos but the shrimp was so dry and over cooked I couldn't chew them. The wings were so greasy and over cooked. The waitress ignored us the entire time we were there. I never got a refill on my drink and they wouldn't switch our hookah flavor though we were ok paying for it. If I ever return it will definitely not be to eat.

    Casi Cielo - Coliflor al Josper is a smoky and beautifully spiced vegetarian entree, dotted with avocado purée. Highly recommend!

    Fives across the board…read more Casi Cielo is incredible. The space is warm and beautiful without trying too hard, and the crowd was hip and well dressed. Definitely a place to be seen and eat well. There's a parking garage but it was full when we got there, so we did valet, which was surprisingly affordable. Service was wonderful. Our server was attentive, helpful, and super knowledgeable about the menu. As for the food, we got: Aguachile de Pescado, which was insane. Super fresh, bright, citrusy, ceviche-like with perfect texture. I would go back just for that. The Hamachi was clean and bright. That avocado sauce tied everything together and gave it some depth without overpowering the fish. The Pork Belly Tostadas were crispy and rich with that smooth avocado mousse and sweet mango salsa balancing it out perfectly. Finally, the bone marrow with steak... so good. I had seen pictures of it before I came and it did not disappoint. The steak was incredibly tender. They bring blue corn tortillas and suggest making a taco with the marrow, steak, and avocado. It's great that way. But honestly, the marrow and steak stand perfectly on their own. Whole experience was excellent. Easily one of my favorite spots in the city now.

    We came here last night to celebrate my sister's birthday with a large group. Unfortunately, the…read moreservice kicked off on a really sour note. Right when we walked in, the staff complained to us that we hadn't called ahead to have a "smaller, special menu" crafted for a large party. To make matters worse, they loudly announced to the whole table right off rip that they wouldn't split checks separately--only an even split. It felt incredibly rude, lazy, and unwelcoming. The irony is that the large group size wasn't even an issue; we staggered our arrivals and the patio was completely empty. The kicker- my brother in law ended up paying the whole tab at the end anyways! so all of that initial laziness & nastiness for NOTHING! Throughout the night, the service felt incredibly rushed and stressed. While we were still eating our appetizers, the busser was aggressively trying to clear our plates because the mains were coming. Our server was very short with us the entire time, which was confusing because the restaurant didn't even have a stressful vibe. She recommended a main dish to me that I really didn't care for, though I will say the salsa was unique and probably the best part of the meal. Shoutout to the one staff member who was actually friendly, but overall, this is not the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a nice restaurant experience- at least I personally didn't.. Too bad we didn't just go to C&S next door which we always love. Regardless tho, my sister had a blast, but that's entirely because she has a wonderful crew of great friends, not because of Casi Cielo.
