Update: I recently returned to Ray's on the River for the first time in ages. This place is an…read moreAtlanta institution. Still good. Simply put, this place suffices for a nice night out if you're looking for steak, seafood, and elevated American/Southern food. They also serve weekday lunch and weekend brunch. Note: Even though the Ray's restaurants are unique to metro Atlanta, this place does have a more corporate/chain feel to it (not saying that's a bad thing). Book your reservation using OpenTable and get dining points. Parking is complimentary valet. I tipped using Venmo. We visited on a Sunday night and the dining room was fairly busy. Here's what I tried: Martinis: * The Meredith ($18) - Grey Goose vodka, extra dirty, Castelvetrano olives * What's the Catch ($18) - Absolut vanilla vodka, Chinola passion fruit liqueur, lychee, lemon Starters: * Pimento Fritters ($17) - original Ray's 1984 recipe, jalapeño jelly * Calamari "Fritto Misto" ($18) - flash-fried, baby vegetables, Ray's aioli Soups & Salads: * Ray's Greens ($14) - Bibb lettuce, fennel, radish, herbs, mustard vinaigrette Seafood: * Horseradish Crusted Black Grouper ($52) - Atomic Horseradish cracker crust, seasonal vegetables, Dijonnaise Sides: * Whipped Potatoes ($14) * Brussels Sprouts ($14) - bacon and shallot jam Desserts: * Warm Butter Cake ($12) - lemon butter cake, blueberry compote, vanilla ice cream * Chocolate Brownie Sundae ($12) - caramelized bananas, strawberries, pecans, vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce Everything was delicious. I enjoyed the martinis and was pleasantly surprised by Ray's Greens (I love salad) and the grouper. The Pimento Fritters are heavy, but can be considered a must, especially if you're entertaining guests from out of town. The desserts were fantastic. Good service. The staff was nice.

Of all the fine dining establishments I have visited, this was unfortunately one of the most…read moredisappointing experiences I've had. My partner and I came here for a date night after hearing great things, but the level of service did not match the premium reputation or price point. They were hosting a wedding the night we arrived. Upon entering, we were told we could only be seated in the bar area, while the party directly behind us was accommodated with a waterfront view. We were placed in a dark, isolated corner of the bar. Immediately upon sitting, a staff member began loudly wrapping silverware right next to us, followed by incredibly loud noise from the bar blenders and mixers, making conversation impossible. The main issue, however, was the complete lack of hospitality. We sat for nearly 10 minutes without being greeted, offered water, or having our drink orders taken. Eventually, a staff member in an apron walked directly past our table, looked right at us, and completely ignored us. To add to the lack of elegance, the adjacent patio area was flooded, and management had stuffed cheap white towels under the door to block the water. For an establishment that positions itself as high-end fine dining, we expected a baseline level of attentiveness. Being ignored by the staff was the final straw, and we ultimately decided to leave before ordering. While I cannot comment on the food or drinks, the service and ambiance were entirely lacking. I cannot recommend spending your hard-earned money here.

I had heard about Spring from friends who are deep in the Cobb County restaurant scene, and I had…read morebeen to Marietta Square a few times, but this was my first time at the restaurant and even on this specific block. Had a lovely time. We got a cocktail before we came at Third Door...took a shortcut through Hansell St, walked through the tiny but charming Church Street Park, and ultimately landed at our (mostly) nondescript location of Spring. Note that this is the "original"...not the more casual (but supposedly great) 2nd branch location. Service is welcoming immediately upon arrival. It is a small venue with a limited number of tables. Essentially the size of a living room. It is also a minuscule menu...but curated with care and delivered with diligence. Please note that I would recommend trying a wine glass or two from the available selection. They put thought into the list of options, so I think you can't go wrong, and you can certainly ask about what flavor profiles you'd like as the team is quite knowledgeable. We enjoyed the Domaine Terrebrune and the Pinot Noir, but I'm sure all the wines are wonderful. Food was awesome as well. Really loved their rendition of an Andalusian soup (ajo blanco...think of it as equivalent to a white gazpacho) and the foamy garlic cream laden pasta. Would also recommend the grilled grouper and asparagus salad with salmon on the side. We also enjoyed all three desserts, though we overestimated our appetite by the end of the dinner!

We went to Spring for a date night last week and I'm not 100% sure we will return?…read more Some of the food was absolutely delicious...some was just ok. I will say that I could have eaten a giant bowl of the tuna tar tar. Beautifully executed- So flavorful. The homemade sourdough bread and butter was memorable but the lamb was way too salty ( and I love salt) The size of the halibut that I got on my plate was the size of the scallop it was paired with, while the gentleman next to us was served the same dish and his halibut was 4 times the size. ??? It was very good though. The casual atmosphere was a surprisingly basic but i guess the service was what surprised us the most. Everyone was nice and but definitely not the level of service we have come to find every other Michelin restaurant we have been to. Anyway-a nice (expensive) date night on the Marietta Square. .

I ask for 90 mins massage but she point her finger nails at 30 mins, she didn't understand English which i could sympathetic for but if she didn't want to do 90mins just cross it out of the menu. And she starts her service around 10:45am and finish at 11:25am, I was like what? I pay 62$ just not even 1 hour and she said it's 1 hour massage. Because she thought i have and appointment at 10:30am and she will finish at 11:30am. So she didn't do good job as well, she just touch my body and move her hand on it, some part of my body she just massage one side and didn't do another side. What a disappointing business. Guys don't waste your money and your time here. I don't mind she didn't speak English well but she just so rush on it.
