    Strawberry cake
    Gretel Y.

    Met a friend here for a late lunch on a weekday. I asked for a table for two and although the restaurant was very busy, to my surprise, I was seated right away. I had a great view of the cakes and pastry case! The space is cute, charming and bright. My friend was running late, but the staff didn't seem to mind. They even said it was fine. I ordered shots of espresso ($3.75) and a slice of strawberry cake ($5.95) while I waited. The staff checked on me several times. Once my friend arrived, we ordered our entrees. She, too ordered a slice of cake to start then a sandwich for her entree. I ordered a small caesar salad ($4) and a slice of the mushroom and leek quiche ($8.25) The cake was divine!! The slice was huge and every bite was perfect. It was moist and the strawberry (maybe cream cheese) frosting complimented it. I'm so glad I ate the cake first. The quiche was fluffy and delicious and the caesar salad was tasty. Even though I ordered a small, it was plenty for a lunch entree. I was full. My friend enjoyed her sandwich, too which was massive by the way. The staff was pleasant and attentive throughout. Very quick to respond. I would definitely return if I'm back in the area!

    Super cute cafe in the Peachtree Battle shopping center. I love the decor and the service was wonderful but the food left something to be desired. The dishes are fairly simplistic--soups, sandwiches, and sides--but the quality and the ingredients just weren't there. I had the famous walnut chicken salad sandwich and there were no walnuts or raisins to taste. The bread was crinkly on top and did not replicate the taste or appearance of high quality French bread. The carrot salad side was interesting but had too much vinegar. I finished off my lunch with a slice of strawberry cake. It looked so fresh in the case and wasn't even cut into so I got the first slice. Unfortunately, the slice was hard and dry for what should be a moist slice. The flavor and icing was good however, and I could taste the real strawberries used in the icing. The cafe is very cute but the dishes need improvement.

    This French eatery is simply the best! My wife and I dined there the very first time on a cozy rainy Tuesday. Getting seated was fast and courteous. We were given a choice of seating as we had our two small children along. The menu was simple to read, but replete with delicious-sounding items. I chose the apricot salad, and my wife the ham & cheese panini along with soup of the day. Every item was scrumptious and served promptly. Our server was Mitch, who was a courteous and delightful human being. We will 100% return to this quaint, comfortable spot. Everything here, service included, is Top Notch Dr. Leigh & Family

    Cafe Lapin is located in the center of the Peachtree Battle Shopping Center amid other restaurants and shops, so I had always overlooked it in the past. My friend claims they have one of the best burgers in town, so of course I had to come in and give it a try Most of the servers are French and have a delightful accent (I guess we should never tell them that, the French hate Americans enough as it is). My friend was telling me that it's a small family owned restaurant so most of the servers, chefs and It was super busy on a Sunday early afternoon. We waited for the slightly frazzled host to come seat is. Oddly, he was also the bus boy so he was covering for someone (or the host position had an updated job description). We were seated shortly after the host noted that we were waiting for a table for 2. We ordered two dishes to split and share. I ordered the Cafe Lapin Burger (which comes with a side of fries) and my friend ordered the Tarragon Chicken Salad with a side of Mixed Greens ($1.50 more). On a whim, I decided to order a cup of coffee and a chocolate croissant. The chocolate croissant was flaky and perfect. Slightly warm and crunched beautifully under my fork and knife. Not as much chocolate as I would have hoped but just enough to be, well, perfect. The coffee was meh, and expensive, too (it's refillable but I never got a refill, which made that cup of coffee very expensive). The burger was ok. Meat was mostly juicy, although some parts of the thick patty were a little dry. Not the medium rare I ordered. My friend said usually the meat is better seasoned; the seasoning seemed to be lacking in the meat. Otherwise the burger had a lot of potential. The chicken salad was HEAVENLY. I loved the flavors and consistency, which went well with the mixed greens. However, the provided vinaigrette wasn't so good, so we set that aside.-1- Overall, the meal was slightly above average, but nothing to rave about. My friend claimed that the food could get better, but since it was so busy it didn't look like the food was taken the time to prepare. I will have to come again next time, preferably on a weekday.

I love me some cheese in my grits too but that was just overkill because it's also cheese throughout the grits. Also the ribeye? Both my friend and I didn't like ours and we love us a ribeye. It didn't even taste like a ribeye, more like top sirloin or NY strip. The Juice? Yuck. I make my juices at home and no additives and it still doesn't taste nasty like this one lol Shrimp & Grits (it's the cheese, remove some and we have a deal, I enjoyed the shrimp and I hate shrimp) Ribeye? Hated it. Give me a good quality ribeye and we'll talk. This gave sirloin from Waffle House or something, no shade.

We were seated inside right by where they plate the food so we got to see what some of the dishes looked like before ordering. We started with the cinnamon roll and it was huge! The equivalent to 3 huge individual cinnamon rolls, but stuck together to make a big one. It was really good too with a warm and soft middle and slightly crunchier outside rim. For my entree, I had the chicken chilaquiles. It was an incredible mixture with the egg on top and the spiciness level was perfect! The creme fraiche really up-leveled the dish. As for the service, decor, and ambiance, it was top notch. The ceilings are high and the interior is nicely furnished. The bar area has flowers over top and great for Instagram.

Location and Parking They are located in Buckhead on Peachtree Road. Parking was valet only, I believe it was complimentary, but please always tip your valets. Venue and Atmosphere From the moment you step inside, Bistro Niko immediately feels like a romantic date in France. The restaurant is spacious, but at the same time has an intimate feel. There is French artwork on the walls, a Food and drinks Because my wife and I are lovers of charcuterie, it was a no brainer that we get the Le Grad Plat charcuterie board. It was my first time having pâté of any kind, and it is definitely..an acquired taste. But my wife loved it so I let her handle all of that. For mains I had the cajun chicken, which was a delicious double chicken breast that was in a beurre blanc sauce and pomme frites. My wife got a lobster pasta that was the special of the day, and it was one of the best pastas I have ever had. It was also in the beurre blanc sauce, which was so good I went home and figured out how to make it and made some. I hope they make it a regular menu item because it was amazing. For drinks we both got glasses of cabernet. The wine list here is extensive which can be a little intimidating, but if you're not sure what to order you can always ask your server for recommendations. Service Service was amazing, our server was attentive, and suggested good wines for our food, which came out promptly. Verdict Bistro Niko does it right, from the atmosphere, to the food and wine they are definitely serving up a trip to France in the Peach State. They should absolutely be on your list. Until next time!

    It was pretty busy on a Sunday evening at 6pm…read more Bread service was nice. The butter was tasty and the bread was warm. I'm going to be real: The French onion soup was better than the one I had in Paris. It's cheesier and the broth was creamier and thicker. The wife doesn't love onions and I'm not a French Onion soup guy, but we couldn't stop eating this. The only thing I missed from Paris was the crunchy baguette. The coq au vin was excellent. The wife expected dry chicken breast with a tart wine sauce. The chicken fell off the bone and the mushrooms soaked up the delectable sauce. I had the steak and fries because I got the dinner special on the side of the menu. The steak was cooked a little less than my usual medium rare but that's ok. The butter sauce I got with it was good but not mind blowing. I wanted to immediately pass out after eating because the food is heavy. Service was great and noise levels were a little on the loud side. This fancy but not too fancy. Parking is $2 with valet - tip. Maybe just me though: I hate valet parking. Would I come here again? Maybe. French cuisine is not usually my first choice but there doesn't seem to be a ton of competition around the area.

Little trick is that if you decide to use the valet in the little square area, they will validate your parking. However, since it is located in Buckhead Village parking can be a challenge at times, however very cheap at two dollars an hour. This is significantly cheaper to downtown Chicago or any other section of Chicago equivalent to Buckhead Village where it is over $14 an hour on the street parking. Anyhow, let me say that Pedro our server was fantastic. He is so full of personality and courtesy and super patient with us. I've read many reviews to talk about slow service and I have to say it is not slow service. It is simply them telling you that they are not rushing you through a meal that is to be enjoyed in an amazing ambience. And they let you move at your pace, which is fantastic. You can tell by the photos we ordered quite a bit of food and everything was absolutely delicious as there were no leftovers whatsoever My only complaint about the place is first the velvet chairs and benches make it very hard to scoot on in or get off Further, you have to pay for bread service here, which I do not believe in. Considering the prices, the bread, even if it was minimal bread and butter should be complementary. I will definitely be coming back here again, whether there be this location or their other locations in the south or even New York This is a must stop and worth every penny!

The other drinks came out at different times. We ordered bread and our salads and entrees. Then the server brought out a plate of deviled eggs " a gift from the chef!" How nice. They were good, we appreciated it. Our entrees were OK: Short ribs were rich and meaty, redfish was good but a bit overcooked and dried out, pork was OK, mussels were good, but the bread wasn't grillled and was slathered with almost inedibly salty garlic butter. The salads were meh. We had wine and water and asked for our checks so we could make sunset. She brought back one check for two couples and a single. We asked if she could split it. She came back a few minutes later, after we sent the birthday folks to the roof for sunset, she said we could "just throw a card down" for the combined check. We reminded her that we wanted to split the check. She completely forgot. Several minutes later, we go our checks. Those deviled eggs that were supposed to be a "a gift from the chef?" They were on one of the checks. Thanks so much for the gift. Anyway, we quickly paid and made it upstairs before the sun was below the horizon. The roof is awesome. But Tiny Lou's is a one and done. Not worth the price. Not special. Would rather just eat at home post-sunset.

    Overall solid food…read more I came here for lunch on a weekday and it was rather empty. Our appetizers came out rather slowly, but our mains came out almost immediately after. The brie pastry was very yummy. I enjoyed the crisp exterior paired with the melty brie cheese and the sweet berries. I would definitely order this again. The gazpacho was okay. I liked the french onion soup a lot though! The top was slightly charred giving it a smoky flavor (not sure if it was intentional) but I rather enjoyed this added complexity. I ordered the lamb sandwich for my main dish. It was good though parts of the lamb were slightly tough. I still happily ate it. The aioli added some much needed moisture. The chicken pasta had a flavorful sauce. I wasn't a fan of the actual pasta- slightly overcooked. Originally our brie appetizer came out with nuts (not mentioned on the menu).

We started with the potato soup, which was piping hot and served in a deep bowl, very generous and delicious. The crab salad followed, and I was worried I'd be too full, but it was light and flavorful. I had the trout with potatoes and substituted Brussels sprouts. Everything was seasoned perfectly, and the sprouts were nicely crisp. K ordered the beef with mashed potatoes and a side of broccolini, which had a smoky flavor with a bit of a kick. I actually liked the broccolini more than K did, it was unique and really tasty. For dessert, we shared the apple tart with vanilla ice cream. I thought it was light and lovely, but K wasn't a big fan since he prefers traditional apple pie. Overall, it was a wonderful dinner: great atmosphere, excellent food, and perfect for a date night.

    I hosted twenty guests for my wife's 60th birthday party. We went with their family style price…read morefixed menu. We had my guests gather at the lounge to surprise my wife. We then moved into the dining area where we had four tables next to each other. The lounge area has festive decor and our server did a great job taking care of my group before we arrived. The dining area has a more subdued decor. There were other groups celebrating and we still felt like we had a room to ourselves. Once seated, service was also excellent. They had several staff dedicated to us. Water, apps and wine service was quick and efficient. The food was absolutely delicious. I had many compliments on both the food and wine. For starters we had Tuna Tartare Chips and greens (salad). Both were excellent. For mains we had the salmon and roast chicken. Brussels sprouts and whipped potatoes for sides. Finally cheesecake bites for dessert. We served their Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir with the meal. Everything went perfectly. Just the right amount of food and wine. (7 bottles for our 20). Their contract is written in a way that makes you think you might be rushed. But that was not the case in practice. We had plenty of time to meet and greet at the lounge before being seated. And plenty of time at the tables. We felt we received an excellent value for our dollar. Highly recommended for a special event. I worked with Kate Chandler who is their Event Manager to plan the event. This was the first event like this that I have planned. She made it easy and offered advice when I asked. The restaurant itself is in Ponce City Market on the first floor. Plenty of parking and valet is available.

    The Atrium at Ponce City Market has a beautiful interior -- the space is absolutely gorgeous and…read morevery aesthetic. Definitely a place where you'll want to take pictures. Unfortunately, the experience didn't quite match the beautiful setting. The Italian food was pretty average for the price and felt overpriced for what we received. The drinks were okay, but nothing really stood out. The service was also disappointing. We felt like we were forgotten about at one point, which was frustrating. There was also a noticeable smell in the air during our visit that gave a few of us a headache, which definitely took away from the experience. I'll share some pictures of the food we tried . Overall, the atmosphere is beautiful, but for the price, I expected better food, service, and an overall better experience.
