    Uptown downtown and tequila martini flights
    Mikaela C.

    This may be my new favorite restaurant in Atlanta! Their menu is New Orleans inspired and for the first time in Atlanta, I can agree that this definitely hits the mark.

    Beautiful Backdrop
    Kayla M.

    What an incredible experience. As soon as you walk into the establishment, you see this beautiful flowered rose wall that's so inviting. I turned to my left you are greeted by amazing Bartendar shaking up drinks, smiling laughing. The music is at a perfect level so you're able to still dance and shimmy in your seat while eating this amazing food. We decided to sit at the bar because Matt was just so welcoming. He knew the menus he knew exactly what to recommend. The food came out hot and ready. Let's talk about this food. OMG every single plate that came out I wanted !!we finally settled on the voodoo egg rolls you have to get it's a must. It is prepared comes to you hot full of flavor pack full of food huge eggrolls. Then I had the Billionaire Grits. OMG so freaking good. The lobster was perfectly prepared. The grits had all the flavor packed with crab meat it was absolutely amazing. My friends had the Chicken and Waffles and the waffle tasted like dessert !! the Biscoff cream, fully smooth. I literally would order that for dessert, the chicken wings oh my God, full of flavor arrived hot crispy you knew they made it as soon as you ordered it. my girlfriend also had the Creole Cajun grits full of flavor with the fried snapper on top!!amazing!! People were celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, and recently engagements. It felt like I was having brunch with family members. Everyone was so warm and inviting. It's definitely intimate setting. Oh my goodness make a reservation and come on down. I will be seeing you again.

    Candied Yams Crispy Brussels lamb chops

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally decided to try it for my birthday. Location: it's in a nice area and it's a small place but you don't feel snug. Parking: I took uber but my friends parked in the parking deck, they validate for 2 hrs. The deck is right next door which is very convenient. Service: We had a party of 5 and made reservations we waited about 30-45 minutes because most of our party wasn't there. I don't think the wait would've been long if my ppl would've been on time. Our server was great! Everyone was pleasant and I enjoyed everything Ambience/Crowd: it's a mixed crowd and everyone had on a bit of every type of outfit. Food/drink : 10/10 I had the lamb chops with Brussels sprout and yams, voodoo egg rolls are amazing! My friends had the pasta, snapper and lamb chops. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Favorite thing: The food and the service. Least favorite thing: I didn't get to try the croffles, they were sold out. Other than that no complaints. Will I be back? Yes! I definitely wanna try the croffles.

    Étouffée
    Chastity W.

    If this has been on your list, Goooo! This place is really good. From the southern Hospitality to the quality made Cajun cuisine they did not disappoint in any area. The étouffée had all the things great flavor, it did need more spice but nothing hot sauce can't fix. The lab chop cooked perfectly and the sides were unforgettable. The was a great place to end my trip to Atlanta.

    Delicious!

    This place is the complete package: delicious food, high energy staff, and fantastic customer service. My youngest daughter had her birthday brunch here and was totally thrilled... I had to take a few pictures to tantalize YOU to make this a necessary visit!

    Very friendly service - I think his name was Matt... Sat at the bar, we overlooked it being a Saturday and no reservation - whoops! The croffle flight was yum - the 3 different flavors of croffles (waffle & croissant baby), and a side of tenders - which were juicy and perfect proportion breaded (aka very lightly). A little side sauce would've jazzed it up a bit. Included 18% gratuity. Parking garage and they validate 2 free hours.

    Seafood potatoes
    Eryn H.

    I enjoyed brunch at crescent city kitchen. I got a seafood potato bowl , fried chicken with croffle , Mac n cheese and yams. All the food was really good the sir a weee the bomb ! I loved their croffles and the service was good. Parking was right next to the building and they do validate. Would definitely come back to try some lunch items.

    Croffle flight
    Erin G.

    My original experience was amazing. It was five stars. I was excited to come back and bring friends, so I did. It was not a good experience. I hesitated on posting this update because I understand that everyone is working hard and things happen. However, I feel like I can't only post good reviews about good experiences. So this is my updated review. We booked reservations for 4 people before a show at the Fox. Our reservations were at noon. I wasn't particularly concerned about this because I came here before another show and everything went smoothly. I was really excited to bring my friends here after our first experience. We arrived by 11:50 and checked in. It was busy at the restaurant. Parties were coming and they were going. We knew we had to be out by a certain time to make it to our show. We were patient. We were standing by the host stand and there were parties arriving that had no reservations but said the knew the hostess. They were seated before us. We waited until 12:45 and asked when we would be seated. We were told there were still three parties ahead of us and it would be another 20 minutes. It was an awful feeling and embarrassing since we had told our friends how amazing this place was. We realized that we had to abort if we were going to eat before our show and found another restaurant for brunch. This was such a disappointing experience. I understand that sometimes there is a rush. I understand that sometimes I need to wait beyond my reservation time. However, hearing other people get seated because they knew someone and jump ahead of the queue was very uncool. Especially when folks waiting in line can hear this happening after waiting 45 minutes beyond their reservation.

    Voodoo grits
    Theertha D.

    The food, the atmosphere, and the service was perfect! We got the croffle flight, voodoo egg rolls, voodoo grits, and the Cajun fried rice. Every single dish was amazing! Highly recommend this place in ATL! Great service from our host Tiara!

    Crabcake hash
    Vantricia T.

    My wife and I are some of the biggest brunch lovers ever, and one of our favorite things to do is find a spot that we might not have been looking for that absolutely blows us away. Crescent City Kitchen was that for us and wow wow wow was it good. Let's get into it! Location and Parking The restaurant is located on Crescent Avenue in Midtown, and as with all things in Midtown parking is never free. They are conveniently located next to a parking deck, and they do validate for 2 hours if you park in said deck. Venue and Atmosphere The venue is quaint and cozy, there is plenty of booth and table seating as well as seating at the bar, which was full. The restaurant was decorated in red and black colors with touches of gold throughout, and music filled the air, it was definitely a vibe. There were a few other patrons in the restaurant, but it did not feel crowded by any means. Service Our server was nice and attentive and all of our food came out promptly. Food and Beverages For the table we got the voodoo eggrolls and I'm still dreaming about them to this day they were so good. My wife got the uptown/downtown with mac and greens, and I got the crabcake hash. We couldn't keep our forks out of each other's plates, if that gives you any idea of how the food tastes. For drinks we each got mimosas, and we sampled some of their flavors. That peach mimosa was a breath of fresh air. Verdict I'm super glad that we stumbled upon this place, I can't wait to bring my friends here and it will definitely become part of my rotation! Until next time!

    Voodoo rolls
    Joy C.

    A slice of NOLA in the heart of ATL! Location and Parking Located in Midtown, parking is (unfortunately never) free. They do validate for 2 hours if you park in the deck closest to the entrance. Venue and Atmosphere Crescent city is small and cozy, with plenty of seating as well as a full bar. The color scheme is bold red and black, and the restrooms are spotless. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. Food and Beverages Voodoo Eggrolls 10/10 Uptown/downtown (lobster and catfish) 15/10 Creole Catch (topped with crab cakes) 100000/10 Safe to say that the food was delicious and seasoned to perfection. Sometimes, seafood can be too salty, but not here. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Verdict This is going to become a staple in my brunch rotation, I'll be back!

    Chicken and biscuit
    Samone J.

    Our mom picked this place to celebrate her 70th birthday for a party of on/around 20 at noon this past Saturday. Things started off a little bumpy the first 20 or so min of our reservation as the tables weren't all arranged, so we had to collaborate with them on getting that settled. We were sat right in the middle of small-ish restaurant which might've not have been my top choice--perhaps in the booths in the back right corner for better comfort. But! Once the tables and chairs were situated, we were off to a good celebration. The restaurant was very lively, lots of foot traffic. The music was moderately loud, we were able to hold convo without yelling. They assigned two team members to us which was helpful. They managed on pretty well, and made sure a birthday song was done. The food was coming out at random versus like ALL appetizers at once then entrees for example--yanno to avoid that only 2 people eating while the rest are waiting? It'd be nice for them to figure out how to fire foods off to minimize or eliminate that. Also the person bringing the food when not our assigned waitress never knew who it belonged to so would have to holler out who had this? That should be fixed too. He enjoyed his tequila sunrise and I my sweet tea. They both took almost 15-20 min to come out but were good. The food overall was pretty good, our only complaint would be that everything tasted somewhat too much of the same--like while it's Cajun based, it was a very single flavor profile. We shared the voodoo egg rolls. They were , crispy, huge and tasty. If you always eat this by yourself, your back will be big. The breakfast surf and turf was almost perfect! I loved the flavor of the breakfast potatoes, my eggs were cooked well. My steak was overcooked but managed to still maintain some juiciness. The jumbo fried shrimp was crispy, actually jumbo, and flavorful. His enjoyed his chicken and biscuit dish through and through. They didn't miss with their biscuit, it was perfect. We'd return and absolutely try out other items.

    The croffles are delicious. This being more of a seafood spot, I kept it simple and had the basic but it was delicious. They do a great birthday shot presentation.

    Is this place filled with hookah smoke?

    Not during the day (hours before 5pm). At least there was none on Mother's Day.

    I was so excited to try this place. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was really great!…read moreIt's located right in ATL so expect parking to be sketchy (would it be ATL if it wasn't). The reason for 3 stars is that the food was mid (I would love to give 3.5 stars if I could). Some dishes stood out - the peanut noodles, the lobster with the same noodles, salmon crudo, and wings were pretty good too. Everything else was either not great or very mid - the platter, calamari, salmon was not crispy skin and was overcooked, fries, sardine bruschetta. We spent $400 with tip and I only liked or remembered about 20% of what we ordered. Drinks are beautiful and creative. It would be great for a drink and sexy vibes, but I would go somewhere else to eat. I forgot to take pictures (OOPS)

The presentation of the drink was very nice and it had a good creamy flavor to it. This drink was a nice way to wind down the evening. As someone from TX, I did think the drinks were a bit on the pricey side but it's not surprising with it being the ritz. I liked that the bar had a fun yet casual ambiance and there were plenty of people around. We did ask what time last call was and were told midnight so we didn't hurry to order a second drink. Unfortunately, when we ordered another at 10:40... we were told they had closed which was frustrating.

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!
