    This was a cute lounge with good music and yummy food. I had a great time catching up with friends while I'm visiting the city for the first time. The servers were attentive and friendly. The only reason I took away a star is because I don't understand why the half naked bottle girls are necessary. Lol. It genuinely feels like a relaxed lounge, not so much a hype club. From the layout of the club to the hanging chairs, the servers' attire just felt out of place. Lol. But I'm learning this is a very Atlanta thing. Everywhere there's a hookah, you can see some @$$. Not knocking it, but it just didn't seem to fit the theme here, but could just be me.

    When I tell you I had the best fried red snapper I have ever had!!!! It was absolutely delicious! Drinks were amazing and I have to give it to the bartender, Coco, she was the best. The other two bartenders had a bit of an attitude but she was attentive, personable and had a great attitude. The hookah was meh... I think they need to service the coals much more often. We had to ask a few times to have the coals changed out. Other than that, great place!

    3 words- THE FRIED CATFISH!! I went here for brunch with a group of 6 friends and we had a great time, I do recommend making reservations ahead of time. Once seated we were told there was a max time that we could occupy our table. I believe it was 2 hours. However, I know for a fact we were there longer than that and we never once felt rushed. The DJ was great, our server was attentive- at times it could be slow but it was a very busy day so we understood. One of my friends ordered a hookah that she said was nice, and we all enjoyed our drinks. We also ordered the mimosa tower and it was great four our group size. But back to the main attraction, that catfish. It was fried to perfection! 10/10 for me. I'd go back for that alone.

    I really like this place. We came here twice once on Friday & again Sunday. We ended up leaving Friday b/c everything we wanted they were out of it. So we decided to come back on a Sunday before our flight. We waited about 45 mins for our food. Everything was good but the spinach was very salty. The catfish I highly recommend was cooked perfectly.

    This restaurant is large group friendly. We had a party of about 15 people during brunch service and we were quickly accommodated once everyone arrived. We did bottomless mimosas which came with three carafes of juice, orange, pineapple, and cranberry. The champagne was brought out in a large tower and was super cute. It took a while for the food to arrive but the mimosas kept us busy. My plate was decent but I chose a pretty simple dish. Others in my party were very satisfied with their food choice. Keep in mind that this place is a "lit brunch"'experience. It was perfect for celebrating my friend's birthday! Overall I enjoyed and will return.

    Randomly went here the other night and it was so turnt up lol. The drink prices are decent. $30 for 2 drinks but the gratuity is included and that's annoying but to be expected from Atlanta establishments. The place is super cute with swings that are super picture worthy and the service was good for it to have been as crowded as it was. I didn't try the food but it looked like typical wings and things to that nature. It was free for ladies and it didn't take long to get in. Parking sucks here tho so we paid for valet which was about $30. The music was good and the vibe was nice.

    Stopped into ATL for a quick moment with my friends because one of us is engaged to be married. So we made a RSVP for this place and decided to come. At first I thought it was gonna be a whole bunch of Twerking but I realize now it's more of a calmer vibe. Good music playing along with some decent quality food. Service was also pretty decent as well, everything that we requested was done and even tho my friends food came late at least it was still given. Saddest part is that I forgot to take a picture of my own food which was the lamb chops and that was delicious along with the potato's and scrambled eggs that assisted the meal. Good vibes and good fun. I would return.

    Came in on Thursday. It was R&B/ladies night. We arrived around 10:30pm. Of course for ladies night, there was no cover for entry. We sat at the large bar where every seat is a swing (so cute). The bartender was very attentive. She suggested a tequila lemon drop with 1800, so we ordered two. Loved them & Would recommend. The music was good. Everyone was singing along, but no dancing. We stayed until close (about 12/1am) and it remained pretty empty and only ladies in attendance. The guys that were there were in dates. It's dimly lit and a good place for date drinks. They have valet parking, and street parking. Food is available, but we didn't order any. The girls nearby seemed to have enjoyed their food though.

    Pay attention lol

    We really had a good time here. Good music & food! I love the swings around the bar & the waitresses were very attentive!

    My first time visiting and I came on a Sunday for brunch. It was very crowded with no social distancing. This made me very anxious. No table was 6ft apart and just about every seat was taken at the bar. Luckily no one was seated next to my table. Brunch line was long and took forever to get food. Some of the options weren't available. Replenishment was super slow. There were 2 servers server the food. They had on masks and gloves. I was happy to see this. I thought the food was just ok. Not $50 worth. They had a DJ and the atmosphere was fun. It would've been great if it wasn't for covid. I wouldn't return for brunch. I may try them again during the week for cook to order food. If you want to practice social distancing, don't come here!

    Not Boogalou's but the valet parking company Royal Parking. Very rude and unprofessional
    LaToya C.

    Boogaloo's was great. I have a problem with the valet service they use called Royal parking. My cousin met us there not even an hour later when I paid $20 they wanted to charge him $30 saying it's later and it's crowded in there and it wasn't at all. Do not patronize Royal Parking... PERIOD.....

    Lamb chops with grits and scrambled eggs

    A must visit when in Atlanta. If your looking for a good brunch spot with vibes this is the place. Nice ambiance on the walking. Food was delicious and portions where good. Took a little long for the food to come out but it was worth it. Hookah was ok.

    Order: Pinot, chicken, lettuce, wrapped, mussels, blackjack, wings, edamame, octopus…read more Pros: the ambience and vibe was amazing. Food was great, hot and fresh. Nothing was sent back. Everything was eaten. My favorite was probably the edamame whatever sauce they cook that them things over the moon! A plus plus was that the parking was free in the garage with the validation. Came here with friends, but definitely a great date spot. Oh, and our server was amazing. There was three of us who came for happy hour. Cons: n/a

    So I've been looking at this spot since it opened and I actually finally made it. Because of what…read moreit is, you have to worry about parking and it's not free to park but actually kind of is free. You have to worry about validating because they do validate so just keep that in mind. You'll park in the structure and then walk over to the restaurant but at that point you'll be able to get a validation code. Validation code will get something sent to your phone and you'll use it to negate the parking. Coming in the service was pretty good. Last time I went in it was actually pretty quiet and nobody was there so I got all the servers and bartenders to myself lol. But seriously everybody was super nice and really friendly and explained the menu very well and no complaints about that See you space cowboy - This was a pretty good and very balanced drink. I wanted something with bourbon in it so this is what I came up with from looking at the menu. Pretty solid and not overpowering at all. Salt and pepper shrimp - the salt and pepper shrimp was the star of the show to me as far as the appetizers that I had. It came with five of them but I could probably have eaten 25 of those joints. They were amazing. Out of the appetizers that I had, they were the best ones and they actually came pretty large. It's not like you got little baby shrimp. These were impactful, powerful shrimp that packed a heck of a flavor. I would 200% get these again and maybe I might get three orders of them by myself lol. Soft shell crab - the crab was good but the crab itself was only okay but the sauce in the bowl of the crab actually carried it. It's not a bad thing, but at the same time by itself it was only okay but the sauce definitely added a little extra to it. Grilled Octopus - the octopus was pretty good but at the same time it was a little more chewy than I would've liked it to be. It wasn't impossibly chewy. It was actually still pretty good. The thing that made the octopus actually pop was the sauce that came with it. The sauce was like a chili-lime sauce and that actually carried the dish itself. Without that it would've just been okay but the sauce definitely helped. The sauce went well with a couple of things actually . But I'll still order doctors again. It was actually pretty decent. Bangkok Hot fries - the fries are actually good. They had a a spice to them. That was a kick in the face but also citrusy as well. So you got a little bit of heat and citrus at the same time. They came out really good. Hot fresh and that would have been really good on a burger LOL Overall, it smells pretty good if you want small plates. This is a spot to go to now. They do have regular and large size portions, but that's not this place's bag, which is okay. If you're in the business of just trying a bunch of stuff, this is a good spot to go to because they actually have a combo where you can get a few things off of the small place menu to try and share. This is a good spot if you just want to stop in somewhere to try a few Asian dishes.

The rooftop bar was extremely busy so we got drinks in the lobby. The service on the rooftop and lobby bar was over extended. They needed more staff to support the crowd. Eventually we ordered food as it seemed more staff came in to help. We shared chicken wings and the flat bread pizza. The wings were a good size and come with potatoes. More like breakfast potatoes, not fries. They were rather salty and not very good. The flat bread pizza was tasty. Their menu included other starters, sandwiches, salads and desserts. We had cocktails - old fashioned, vodka and cranberry, and a Moscow mule. Good size and tasty. Overall, the band - The DJ Wright Band and DJ Eclazz were why we came! Definitely check this spot out.

The ambiance and overall mood of the restaurant were beautiful--definitely a nice setting for a girls' night out. Unfortunately, our server really took away from what could have been an even better experience. She was incredibly cold and sterile throughout the entire evening. At no point did she seem happy to be serving us; instead, we were made to feel more like a burden than guests. We were warm and inviting toward her, but we never got so much as a smile in return. It was noticeable enough that it became hard to ignore. That said, the food was GOOD. I ordered the $30 burger, and it was every bit as delicious as I hoped it would be. I couldn't even finish it because my appetite said "girl, that's enough" , but even a day or two later I was still thinking about how good that burger was! I also had two $30 French 95s, which definitely caught me off guard. I would have appreciated knowing there was an upcharge before ordering the second one. That said, I also take some responsibility for not asking more questions before ordering. Despite the service, my girlfriends and I still managed to have a great time, and that says a lot. I'm just not sure I'd return. The food and atmosphere were enjoyable, but when you're spending this kind of money, the service should match the experience.

The mocktails were served in these foggy old cups. Even the customer next to me commented on her own cup and said it looked like someone had drank from it.
