I recently attended a surprise birthday party for a good friend at The Venue Marietta in Marietta,…read moreGeorgia, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. This event venue offers a beautiful and versatile space for special occasions. We arrived a half an hour before the birthday boy (who turned 55) was to arrive. All the guests were instructed to park in the back of the building which offers plenty of parking spaces for the size of the venue. The venue was beautifully decorated, from the entrance to the tables, to the ballons, and party decor. The layout is spacious enough for tables for brunch or dinner and then the dance floor area where the DJ booth was had enough room to get our groove on. Nikki Hunt was a gracious event coordinator. You could tell she takes pride in the venue. She made sure all the guests were comfortable and had everything they needed. The level of service provided was top-notch and contributed to the overall positive experience. And the birthday boy was completely surprised!!! He had no idea what he was walking into. Thanks to his beautiful wife, it was an event to remember.

My husband and friends were well accommodated at another establishment owned by Electric Hospitality and it was a better experience!

The Djs Spinning on the 1's & 2's Frank Ski & DJ PNut played nothing but great music for the Grown & Sexy Crowd to dance all night. Definitely lots of dancing & line dancing. You already know they played 'Where dem Fans At & The Tamia Dance, surprisingly they also played The Wobble & The Electric Slide. Drinks & Food were delish, a must try is the Grilled Vegetable Pasta. The servers & hookah girls were mediocre. You will wait and they will forget items you ordered and you will wait some more for them to return with the missing items. ‍ We had a great time shutting the club down.

I went to Soho Lounge for a girls' night with friends and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised…read more I am usually a little hesitant about lounges but this is easily one of the better ones in the Atlanta area. Parking One of the first things I appreciated was the parking situation. You actually have options here. Valet was twenty dollars which I chose, or you can park for free yourself. A lot of lounges make you pay for parking so I thought this was a nice touch. Atmosphere and Seating I found the lounge through a quick Google search and was drawn in by the fact that they had both a live band and the legendary DJ Frank Ski performing that night. The vibe is definitely mature with people dressed in linen suits, nice dresses and heels. I did not make a reservation and arrived about forty five minutes after opening. At that point the bar was already full and the only free option was a shared section for walk-ins. Honestly it worked out well. The section easily fit twelve to fifteen people and we had more than enough space. I strongly recommend making a reservation if you want your own table. Food and Drinks The menu is pretty limited but I split the seafood plate with a friend. It came with fried catfish, shrimp, and potato rounds. Everything was hot, well seasoned, and came out quickly. For drinks I had two French 75s with cognac and they were made perfectly balanced and smooth. Service Our server Taya was wonderful. She was attentive, friendly, and patient with all of our questions. The only hiccup was with the hookah service. On the refill the hookah was not pulling correctly and it took a little back and forth before they swapped it out. Once it was fixed we were good to go. Overall Between the live entertainment, great drinks, solid food, and attentive service I had a really good time. I would definitely come back, especially with a reservation in place.

I felt a little like I was on vacation, sipping on a tropical drink while listening to live music. Is there anything better than a nice evening outside with live music? I think not. The drinks were good, the service was good, and we loved the music. We'll be back!

The owner was very nice and assured us that bringing our own mixed alcoholic punch would be fine, he actually recommended this. The day of the baby shower (after he had our money) everything changed he did not allow us to use the punch and had the audacity to tell me that he never agreed to the punch (LIES - we had multiple conversations about the punch) & then he had the nerve to threaten us if he got a fine due to the punch. His exact words were "if I lose my liquor license or get a fine, you are going down with me" Who runs a business and talks to paying customers in this way?? I don't want to pull the race card but I can't help but think he would NOT deal with white customers in this way. We are young black and very respectful - we paid and were nothing but professional. Long story short we used the punch with NO ISSUES no fights broke out no one was shot no police came out. But I would not recommend this space to anyone. THE OWNER IS UNPROFESSIONAL & DOES NOT STAND BEHIND HIS WORD! BEWARE!

The venue serves some pretty tasty yet small food like poke tacos, sliders, and fries. The cocktails look very artesian. I can understand why people love this place. I hate having to pay for parking and this place only validates for 2 hours. There is not a bathroom upstairs so you have to go downstairs. You have to rent the dartboards upstairs. It takes a while to get drinks, even when they are not busy. The food is tasty but small.

I recently attended my sister's wedding here. It's very quaint. I think it's a bed and breakfast?…read moreUpstairs they have some rooms with bathrooms. The beds seem a bit small so not sure how romantic that is. The floors are also quite squeaky if I remember correctly. Very charming! The main hall can seat a lot of people, but you do have to clear out some tables to make for a decently sized dance floor. They have a porch here which makes for nice photos. The backyard is presumably where you hold the wedding reception. There are some very steep stairs going down to the backyard.

We held our annual company holiday party this year at the Whitlock Inn in Marietta. The Whitlock…read moreInn is a historic Victorian home built in 1900. It's located next to Marietta Square. The inn is a popular spot for weddings. Their slogan is "we put the Marry in Marietta." They've won multiple awards from wedding service company The Knot. It's not hard to see why. The home is beautiful and for our party, it was tastefully and elegantly decorated for the holidays. In addition to weddings and holiday parties, the inn also hosts many corporate and social events. It's a charming, smaller, intimate setting. The house was traditionally decorated with Christmas wreaths and lights. As we walked up to the house, it looked like a scene from a Christmas movie. The home felt warm and inviting. I estimate we had about 100 attendees at the party. I believe the venue can host up to 150. Our party consisted of cocktails and dinner. A coat rack was set up in the office near the front door. A bar was set up in one of the parlors. The inn doesn't have a liquor license, so we had to bring our own alcohol. Food was catered by Carriage House Catering, which is located on-site. The small dining room had a dessert table, tea and water, and a coffee station. The dessert table's centerpiece was a classic gingerbread house. It was surrounded by chocolate bourbon pecan pies (derby pie), large glass containers filled with creme brulee and colorful berries, plates of baked brie, and other decadent sweets. Coffee was kept warm and stored in an ornate silver coffee dispenser. Chocolate shavings and a bowl of whipped cream were available to add to the coffee. Dinner was served buffet-style and consisted of a mixed field salad with cherries, walnuts, Parmesan, and a spiced orange vinaigrette, hot Charleston crab dip served with flatbreads, sauteed seasonal vegetables including carrots, zucchini, and asparagus, red skin mashed potatoes, sliced prime rib in a rosemary au jus with spicy horseradish sauce, roasted salmon fillets cooked with pomegranate buerre blanc (white butter), and dinner rolls. Overall, the food was pretty good. The salmon was dry, but that was the only "bad" thing. Most of the other items were delicious. My favorites were the flavorful field salad, the savory vegetables, and the consistently soft and appetizing mashed potatoes. The desserts were excellent and the coffee station was fun. I enjoyed the rich chocolate bourbon pecan pie. Service was good. The bartenders filled drinks to the brim and servers made sure the buffet was replenished regularly and finished plates were cleared from the tables. Our dinner took place in the large ballroom which had chandelier lighting. There was a pianist in the dining room who played Christmas music non-stop throughout the night (3-4 hours). Aside from the ballroom, the house has many areas to congregate and socialize including the aforementioned dining room and parlor rooms, as well as front and back porches outside. There are also gardens outside. Inside, holiday decor included a brightly lit tree, festive candles, Nutcrackers, Christmas trumpets, poinsettias, and a staircase lined with ornamented garlands. It was picturesque. Plenty of parking is available at SunTrust Bank next door or across the street at First United Methodist Church. I recommend parking at the bank so you don't have to walk across the street.
