    The blue Long Island was everything
    Brandon B.

    Food was absolutely fire. The drinks were amazing, the service was fast and friendly, and the whole vibe was on point. You have to try the salmon nachos -- they were unforgettable. I loved everything about this place. If you're anywhere near Marietta, stop by Esco. You won't regret it.

    On the recommendation of other Yelpers, I chose to go here for an early dinner & drinks. My Mom, her friends and a friend of the family agreed to meet early on a Saturday to be greeted by a great atmosphere. No cover. Free parking. Yes, read that again. Happy Hour is Tuesday- Sunday...I read that twice too. Our server was recommended - Meyonce (like Beyonce) was too accommodating, helpful and attentive. She helped me get a table, helped with getting our orders in before Happy Hour ended & just checking on us. All the servers that asked by checked in & help pour water or clear plates. She took our picture too. We ordered wings, fries, crispy calamari and the salmon nachos. To drink we all got a margarita- they offer a few flavors. They offer a $5 hookah special which is unheard of and I don't even do hookah! Overall, great time to step out for Cobb locals. The DJ was jamming and music is blasting so don't expect to have an intimate conversation. Food was fresh & tasty. Drinks were really good too. The only ding are the restrooms. Unisex, only 2 available and one had a broken door/knob. This needs to be fixed ASAP. We'll be back & tell a friend!

    I wanted to love this place. Husband and I went for brunch on a whim to get out the house on a Sunday afternoon. Location is tricky, and I do hope they last, but there may need to be changes. For starters - it gives "grass wall" energy: banking off aesthetics to make up for potentially lackluster food or service. DJ was vibing - played a lot of line dances, so servers started line dancing. Multiple TVs in clusters of 4, where I noticed 3 of every 4 TVs we're playing the same thing with a few seconds delay. Service was great. I believe our server's name was Blake. Very attentive, quick with the communication, no need to track her down. My only gripe is she brought out his food about 8 minutes before mine. Which brings me to the food... For mine to come out later, it was cold, but microwaved. My grits were both hot and cold. Like the gouda cheese I requested when ordering was an afterthought and was the cause for delay. The eggs were room temp, if not on the "cool" side, and bacon was... bacon. Nothing spectacular. He ordered an omelet the he states was cool as well, but his biggest disappointment was the French toast. He asked for a side of French Toast ($8, 2 slices , 4 pieces) and it was both cold, and dry. It was definitely giving "prepped this morning and heated for the order". His omelet was mediocre. Would I visit again? Maybe for a Girls' Night Out, or even a nightcap to a date. I can see it popping for the nighttime crowd. I just don't think brunch is strong enough to really even have a "Brunch" menu. Best of luck to them.

    My husband and I went out for an early date night and arrived around 6:45 pm. We were seated by one of the sweetest servers (I wish I could remember her name!). She kindly let us know that happy hour lasted until 7 pm, so we could still take advantage of the specials. We both ended up having two margaritas, which is funny because my husband is usually a beer guy. But after trying mine, he couldn't resist ordering one for himself! The food was excellent! The only downside was that we forgot to ask for my husband's wings to be fried extra crispy, which is how he prefers them. Still, everything tasted delicious. The DJ was amazing, playing early 2000s Atlanta hits, which was right up our alley. It really set the perfect vibe for the evening! Our server was attentive throughout the night, checking on us frequently despite managing several tables. She was prompt and friendly, which made the experience even better. Overall, we had a fantastic time, and I would definitely visit again!

    The staff was awesome! The food was great, it was a whole vibe! Ended up stopping here after we left the airport, we did not have a reservation, but we were able to be seated right away. The inside looks awesome, however, there is a few tables available to sit in outside. I love the decorations on the inside with all of the mini TVs and the bar is huge. The booths are super pretty because they have the floor material in our pretty color blue. Great for a night to hang out with your friends or even a date night if you're looking for a vibe!

    This place has tons of potential. To start its really close to my house which is a plus for me, but it's in a plaza which I've seen restaurant business fail over and over. Maybe being backed by rapper 2-Chains it may take off and attract more ppl. Got here around 9pm on a Sunday and there was about 10 ppl inside. There was a DJ definitely doing his thang. I was hanging out earlier at a fancy spot so I got here hungry. We ordered the the chicken and shrimp pasta along with wings and fries. Honestly everything tasted great. The bartender was cool but seemed really busy prepping takeout (Uber eats, etc.) I will try this spot again on maybe a Friday or Saturday night and see if the festivities and crowd picks up. I have ordered the pasta again via Uber eats

    Really fun happy hour with some great happy hour specials on drinks and food. R&B mix of music with a grown folks crowd. Taking away a star because our waitress was a bit off putting. Will definitely be back.

    Amazing spot! The food was A1 Drinks were on point and even the DJ kept the joints coming and it was such a refreshingly upscale vibe, in Marietta‼‼ The booths were huge and spacious enough for about 10 or more folks. There is plenty of seating for ladies and I enjoyed the openness of this location. I will be back!

    The drink they "added" sweetener to. This was when they sent it back in a class even though the first one came in a plastic cup.

    This was my second time at this location. The first time it was okay they were operating on a limited menu. I got lemon pepper and sweet chili wings with fries. I visited last night after dinner for drinks and vibes. I got the complete opposite. The bartender made my drink to strong. Most people want it strong but it tasted like straight liquor and ice. I sent the drink back and the bartender said no exchanges or refunds. The waitress brung the drink back and said they added "sweetener" to it. Also, some people drinks came in glass while others had plastic cups. They don't give any garnish. My first drink was in a plastic cup the next one came back in glass. The drinks we originally wanted we couldn't get it because they didn't have some of ingredients for it.

We were a group of 5 and that was pushing it so I'd definitely say no more than 5-6 people. We sat outside and the weather was beautiful. Just a heads up--this restaurant seems to be dog friendly. As a dog owner myself that is something I'd like to know but I understand the hesitation when you're sitting and eating next to a dog. However, doesn't take away from the cleanliness or the service of the restaurant. We ordered the Mezze trio as an appetizer. Everyone loved the hummus however my favorite was the red beet root. I also loved that they can refill the pita bread which went by quickly. Most of the table ordered the lamb skewers which I thought was a good. I'd give it an 8/10. I thought the flavors paired nicely and it was a different taste than the skewers I've ordered before. My brother ordered the salmon and he really enjoyed that. The service was nice however it did take at least 45 minutes for us to get our food which was a bummer. Definitely could see this being a nice, chill lunch or dinner spot.

I can't remember all the cheeses and meats we got but they were all good! The mustard and pickles paired well with everything. We got a variety of tapas to share: the hamachi crudo, octopus, mushroom flatbread, and then paella as a main dish. I thought the tapas were all super delicious! The hamachi crudo was so flavorful, I couldn't believe it was just a raw piece of fish cause it tasted so flavorful. The octopus was SO tender but honestly the fennel that came along with it was the star of the show for me I had never had fennel before but wow it might be my new favorite vegetable? I gotta figure out how they cooked it because it was just so good. The mushroom flatbread was so good and we didn't even know it was gonna be a flatbread because all I saw was mushroom and truffles and i was like that's gonna be delicious! And I wasn't wrong, I LOVE truffle! The paella was also super delicious, it was very different from any paella I've had before and had a very distinct flavor to it. Idk how authentic it was but it sure was tasty! Finally for dessert we ended it with a blackberry basque cheesecake and churros. GUYS. The cheesecake was PHENOMENAL. It had a blackberry caramel that was one of the best dessert things I have ever had! My only complaint was I feel like there needed to be way more of the caramel! The cheesecake was also made of goat cheese, which is very unique and I think it made it a little bit pungent? But the blackberry caramel covered it up. Honestly I feel like I would put that caramel on any dessert and it would taste amazing! The churros were pretty average, the chocolate sauce was very rich and tasty but the actual churros weren't really anything I'm gonna remember in the future. The service was average, I think it could've been better but I think they were just really busy. The servers were all very nice! Overall, a great experience! Would recommend!

    Avoid this restaurant for group events…read more We came to Iberian Pig Buckhead on a Thursday night for a friend's birthday dinner. The restaurant was practically empty, yet management insisted we meet a $1,000 minimum spend requirement. By the end of the meal, after multiple rounds of drinks and several courses of food, our group had spent around $400. When we spoke with the manager, Chris, and asked for some flexibility given that the restaurant was nearly vacant, he refused to budge. Instead, he suggested that we order more shots to reach the minimum. Apparently, encouraging a group to consume excessive amounts of alcohol was preferable to exercising basic common sense and customer service. What made the experience particularly frustrating was Chris's attitude. He repeatedly insisted that we were obligated to meet the minimum despite the fact that no one in our party had signed any contract or agreement. Rather than trying to find a fair solution, he seemed far more interested in squeezing additional money out of a birthday group than creating a positive guest experience. The irony is that this wasn't a packed Saturday night with limited seating. The restaurant was largely empty. There was no apparent business reason for such an inflexible approach--just poor judgment and even worse customer service. The food was fine, but management completely ruined the evening. There are too many great restaurants in Buckhead to spend your money somewhere that treats customers this way.
