The burger was ordered and cooked medium. The fries were hot and crispy outside and soft inside. Shrimp and grits - I didn't taste but my guest enjoyed the dish. They said they'd order the dish again. Shore leave - a great cocktail. A great pour that was well balanced. I only wished for a bit more foam. My guest just moved here and said they'd add 5 Church to their lost of "go-tos" based off that first experience. The server was awesome (shame on me for forgetting his name). Parking is validated for 1.5hrs during lunch and 3hrs for dinner.

The Renaissance Atlanta Midtown Hotel was the "official" hotel for our company's 40th anniversary…read moreparty recently. This hotel is convenient and walkable to many Midtown destinations, such as where our party was held (Biltmore Ballrooms, one block south). We had after-party drinks at the bar downstairs. The drinks and service were good. One of my friends, who works for Accenture (which has offices nearby), always stays at this hotel when he's in Atlanta. He prefers it. Also, one of my coworkers stays here quite a bit, and the staff knows him as a regular. The building first opened in 2009 as the Hotel Palomar, a boutique hotel managed by Kimpton. It was rebranded as the Renaissance Atlanta Midtown Hotel in 2011, after the property was acquired and the management transitioned to Marriott. The hotel recently underwent a renovation in 2025 to update its guest rooms and meeting spaces.

As a Titanium Elite Lifetime member, I'm always interested if I get upgraded when I arrive. The host at the front desk said our room was upgraded. Turns out my room on the 18th floor was no upgrade. So, I headed downstairs with my luggage and asked if I could get a unit with a glass shower. That was the magic words that got me upgraded to a suite on the 21st floor. Lots of room, luxury and great views. Although the hotel doesn't have a club level or M Lounge, it provided breakfast vouchers for Bonvoy travelers. Although the vouchers say they're good for only a continental breakfast, you can order anything on the menu. So go for it! We've had a great stay after the check-in. Everything was clean, bed was super comfy and they service the rooms daily. The hotel's Rowdy Tiger restaurant has an awesome bar and food service. I'll review it in more detail in a separate review. The only issues I'd flag is the in-room Wi-Fi signal wasn't steady and the bath towels are rough. That makes no sense in a luxury property.

Under new ownership. This review is just for the golf course and a couple beers at the 19th hole…read more This is a membership only golf club with steep guest fees for playing with a member. The course was in need of some upgrading under the old ownership and that is still the case under the new owners. You can see where they are painting the Clubhouse and getting some sand added to the traps. There are a two greens that are near impossible to putt on making our groups take automatic 2 putts. Course maintenance is sorely lacking due to the low points in the fairways and most sand traps being full of leaves and piles of sand. At this point it is not worth anywhere near the one hundred dollar green fee. The cart paths will rattle you're brain. Everyone that we came in contact with was very hospitable. The bar and table service was excellent for our group. The guys cleaning and taking our golf clubs to the bag drop were excellent as well. Hope they get it together for next year.

This place was so amazing! We got married here on april 10, 2021 and literally they were perfect…read more Nichole, Kelly and the whole team were wonderful! Nichole made sure everything ran so smoothly, like I even forgot I hired a caricature artist until someone reminded me Nichole had set him up on the terrace. Kelly somehow knew where all my stuff was better than I did & is an excellent writer so she helped us with our signs. They have a private bridal suite in the women's locker room ground level and a men's locker room upstairs. The decor is elegant and perfect for mood lighting. The food was amazing! The chef knows what he's doing and has such good recipes. You must go with the Asian steak. The lemon drops from the bar are excellent as well. We got beautiful lakeside photos and got to ride around in golf carts and my husband never drove one before so that was a journey. The wild rice pilaf, Asian steak & gorgonzola salad were my favorites. We also had salmon, rolls, and prime rib on our menu and mixed veggies and scalloped potatoes. Plus apps like beef wellington, crab cakes and coconut shrimp. Literally everyone was talking about the food (in a good way) If you're unsure about this place, hit me up and I can show you more pics or give more info but this was an excellent decision for us.

The spot is huge with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so you aren't cramped while trying to catch a vibe. The 1000 Masks cocktail was smooth and balanced, avoiding the sugar-trap I expected from the blueberry syrup. We started with the Yuca Parmesan Truffle Fries--solid crunch and the truffle wasn't aggressive--and the Togarashi Tempura Veggies, which were light and crispy. I went with the 5Church Lamb Burger Sliders for the main; the gorgonzola fondue and red onion marmalade combo was a heavy hitter, though the lemon-dressed arugula kept it grounded. The food was a solid, reliable choice--nothing that'll change your life, but definitely tasty enough to keep you satisfied while the music does its thing. If you want a laid-back, intentional atmosphere without the extra noise, this is the move.

Beautiful views, but the service and the food left much to be desired…read more I ordered chicken skewers, 2 mocktails, artichoke dip, and yucca fries. The chicken skewers took forever to come out. You only get two of them, and they are served over a bed of mixed greens. They lacked seasoning and flavor. The artichoke dip was extremely oily and had a very strange texture--it was thick and spreadable. The pita bread tasted old and stale. asked for a fork and the waitress forgot. When she brought my fries, she realized that she never brought the fork, and still didn't bring it. I ordered yucca fries, but she brought regular fries. 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. They add 20% gratuity to ALL bills--I was by myself and it was still added. 5 Church is pretty good, but this place was not at all. I paid 65 dollars for my meal, which was absolutely not worth it, given the quality and service of my experience. Looks good for IG but I won't be coming back to this rooftop.

I would give this place zero stars if possible. This was the worst experience ever. Do not come…read morehere if you're hungry. We ordered Mexico City tacos (two for $12) and two Patrón margaritas. The bartender filled the cup with ice before even mixing the drinks, so I knew the liquor-to-mix ratio was off. Even after asking for less ice, the margarita was a 4/10 at best. Then came the food--cold tacos, not even lukewarm. I told the waitress, who seemed clueless, and the kitchen lead insisted they were fresh. I handed him a cold taco to prove otherwise, and he took the plates back. After a long wait, the tacos returned warm but completely flavorless, lacking any authenticity. I've had better tacos from an LA food truck. The wings weren't even lemon pepper--just coated in some random sauce. The only decent things were the crinkle fries and the loud music. To top it off, security allowed people to smoke indoors despite there being a designated smoking area. I will never return and advise others to avoid this place if you want even mediocre food and a smoke-free environment.

Whenever I attend large attendance parties I always eat lots of passes appetizers because the main course is always rubber chicken. The passed hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail reception were delicious and unique, fresh and plentiful. When the main room was opened we were seated in a spacious room with gorgeous chandeliers and 56 tables. Instead of a plate of salad there were an assortment of snacks on the table. Bowls of flavored hummus, variety of breads and crackers, quinoa salad and skewers of tomato, basil and mozzarella. In unison the staff offered Wine and then expertly removed our plates and served perfectly cooked and crisped salmon with al dente asparagus and beggars purses filled with cheesy spinach. Delicious.

Celebrated 18 year anniversary here with my better half and had an absolutely wonderful time…read more 5Church Buckhead shines for special occasions and hallmark events and just note it is pretty difficult to get a reservation here in the sunroom but somehow my wife secured a reservation and we were able to experience the magic of 5Church. The wonderful vibe there was only improved by the superb service by Maila our server and Brie, the bartender who served us our wonderful cocktails and hand delivered them with a smile. We ordered 3 appetizers which were generous in size and 2 entrées. Here's what we got: Sticky Lamb Ribs (our favorite appetizer), sushi tots, soy glazed pork belly, shrimp and grits, and crab and calabrian chili bigoli. To drink we selected scent of a Woman, and a pineapple fizz mocktail. For dessert we ordered a strawberry shortcake creme brulee. We were stuffed by the end of the meal and very happy with our experience overall. 5Church Buckhead is a 5 star establishment and gets my two thumbs up as well. Thank you for an outstanding meal and wonderful time for my wife and I celebrating our 18 year anniversary. 5 stars!

A very disappointing experience. If you are considering coming here, definitely reconsider. I've…read morealready written a review on Google, to which the owner replied and lied about when we arrived, which I have proof of on there. I am only writing a review on here because of their dishonest response. I booked my wedding dinner here for 18 people. We were running about half an hour late and let the restaurant know. We thought it would be fine because our reservation slot was for 2.5 hours, which is plenty of time. From the moment we arrived service was extremely slow. Drinks took forever to come and some were forgotten. My friend got a virgin raspberry mojito and it was so sour it was undrinkable. We had asked multiple times for one regular menu to order from and for some simple syrup for the mojito, neither of which we got. We pretty much had one server for our table of 18 people, and he was serving other tables as well. He told us at the start that another server would be helping but she was barely seen. It got to the point where my husband and I had to get up to talk to management. They were apologetic, gave us a bottle of rose, and asked how they can make it better. I told them that things need to be on time not just because we were approaching the end of our reservation but also because we had plans right after. Service was still slow and once we were finished we were still sitting and waiting for the check. We ended up being late to our other plans. Keep in mind this was our wedding day. We had just gotten married and everybody was in a great mood. We were nice and clearly communicated our needs even though service was lacking throughout the whole dinner. I write a review and then a day later they reply to my review, telling lies to try and discredit me. As if the poor service during dinner wasn't enough, their timing and dishonesty reflects their lack of respect for their customers. We spent over $2000 which included a 22% gratuity fee. Such a waste of money. You couldn't pay me to come here again. If you're looking for a restaurant for a wedding, proposal, anniversary, celebration, graduation, reunion, date, large party, or really anything, save yourself the trouble. They just might treat you the way we were treated, and then lie about it to try and make you look bad.

Having mediocre food is acceptable for me and my company if the ambience and service is better. But this place, the service was terrible, mainly our server. I came here for my birthday as a present from my sister. The ambiance is pretty. This place is mostly famous for the building and its location. The high tea for two is terrible: the tea sandwiches are made in stale and dry bread. The desserts are semi good and the scones are hard and dry as a rock. If you are someone who has very little experience and afternoon tea and high tea, this might be the best experience of your life. If you are someone who appreciates a calm and friendly service, this place is not for you, especially if you are an experienced and avid tea drinker. SERVICE: our server took our order like a McDonald's server without any friendliness or enthusiasm. She was not polite either. She seemed very unhappy to be there. When we asked about their most popular menu item, she was overwhelmed and took a deep breath with deep annoyance, replying: " I have no idea what people are saying about our menu online. And I wouldn't know our popular menu item either. People like different things on our menu." This was a very disappointing experience.

The raging reviews on here are true; it's not part of a fake string of reviews. Go take a look and ask lots of questions if you're considering this place. Working with the sales person (Hope) and coordinator (Jen) was a wonderful delight. The chef(s) were friendly and cook up a mean menu that EVERYONE loved. I also really liked the extra staff available to direct guests to where they should park and so forth as well. In summary, I love the quick response and flexibility of the staff, venue space (all the nooks and crannies), and items the venue could lend out (cake display, easels, frames, etc.). Let's just say I can recommend this venue wholeheartedly. :)
