    Spicy turkey melt
    Westyn R.

    Ormsby's is a spot where you grab after work drinks and a delicious meal. You seat yourself and then will be immediately greeted by staff. The space itself is a a dimly lit pub that's is great for groups. There's plenty of TV's to watch the big game of course. There is also a downstairs portion that includes games such as Bocce ball. The menu is full of elevated bar food. There's something for everyone. It was hard deciding what I wanted to eat but I chose the spicy turkey melt. It had turkey, kimchi and jalepnos and "rowdy sauce". I'm not sure what rowdy sauce is but I wanted to bathe my turkey melt in it. The sandwich was unique and had plenty of meat. When it arrived at the table even everyone said "whoa that looks good!". I guess I chose right!

    La Chouffe Belgium Beer ($12)

    Come for the games. Pay attention to the menu. I ordered a tasty non alcoholic beer for $12. Imagine my surprise paying a cocktail price for a beer with no alcohol. Loved the bottle and art work though. The empanadas were ok, I liked the crust but the filling and sauce could be better. Lastly I ordered the vegetable curry and added shrimp. The shrimp were grilled to perfection but the curry could have been spicier in my opinion. Overall I've been here before to play bar games and drink with friends and I think that's the best part of this place. I won't be coming back just for dinner. Thank you for the parking validation and for the server who exchanged my husband's burger. Inside is chilly but outside has bugs, pick your battle.

    Shrimp and grits
    Jalal B.

    Gorgeous establishment serving delicious food and a hotspot for fun, free group games on the lower floor. I ordered the shrimp and grits and was treated to a generous shrimp portion smothered in a delicious sauce and richly flavored grits. Cheap drinks. Their cooked peanuts were delicious; I've never had anything of the sort -- marinated in a thick, dark spicy sauce. The expansive basement is filled with fun, free group games that my group of 1 12 was able to enjoy on a Saturday night, free of line (several bocce courts, shuffleboard, giant uno).

    Sticky Chicken Sandwich with broccoli
    Travin W.

    Went for a surprise party. I was surprised myself to see the restaurant was split levels with games on the lower level as well. It has a kind of sports bar feel to it that encourages socialization with all patrons. The food was also good. Our server was working very hard trying to keep up since we had a large party but a great time was had overall.

    Chocolate Chip Donut Bread Pudding

    This place is a two for one deal. Upstairs is your normal restaurant and bar and then downstairs is a bar and game area. They have pool, skeeball, board games and etc. the service and food was left much to be expected. I had a grill chicken sandwich which was just plain and blah. Also the bread pudding needed something. First to be heated up and second ice cream. I felt the best part was the pickle. Now my friends I was there with enjoyed their sandwiches. Our server seems to get ghost a lot. When we got our food we wanted some sauces and our server didn't come back till almost we were done.

    Rowdy Reuben with Cole slaw
    Tess S.

    I've been here quite a few times and it's exceptional. The food is delicious, their upscale pub / speakeasy atmosphere is beautiful, and their downstairs bar and game area is fantastic and rowdy on a Friday or Saturday night. They have great cocktails, craft beers, and wonderfully memorable food. And great service! I like to take people here whenever I can because it always feels like the perfect kind of place for most occasions - whether it's with a friend, on a date, a lunch with colleagues, or going solo, for lunch, dinner, or grabbing drinks. By looking on google, it might be hard to piece together that the pool tables and games are downstairs - not where their seating is on the main floor, where you enter. Some people may think it's more of a dive bar kind of vibe, but no all of these things are downstairs.

    FGT BLT and Fries
    Gregory B.

    Tasted as expected for a bar, not bad though. Huge serving of fries that were nice and crispy, the bread for the BLT was soft and tasted good. Would recommend the same items if you're going, but if you're not a tomato fan, I would look at something else.

    Hand-Cut Fries
    Candyce V.

    I had a situation where I felt uncomfortable and unsafe due to the actions of another patron, and the staff immediately came to my aid and handled things professionally. For that reason alone, Ormsbys has gained me as a new regular and I'll always support them. I truly appreciate how everyone came together to help me and turn my crummy evening around. Oh yeah since I should mention food somehow, the hand-cut fries and dipping sauces made in-house were the perfect bar appetizer.

    The food is good especially the burger. The service wasn't that great but I've coke other times and it was better. Very dim lit & gaming ambiance. To have a few drinks and play some board games with friends, check them out.

    Attila the Hen
    Megha D.

    Ormsbys has always been a staple Georgia Tech bar, but I recently checked it out for dinner with a friend back in town. Parkingwise, you can find street parking or park in one of the decks either for Westside Provisions or Interlock. Inside, I usually go downstairs where there's a great bar with games like pool, darts, and backgammon. This time, we sat ourselves upstairs. Our waitress was quick to serve us and was also helpful with letting us know about substitutions. I had the Attila the Hen with a side of sauteed mushrooms. My chicken sandwich was really delicious, juicy, and I loved the flavored mayo! The mushrooms were also delicious. Overall, Ormsbys is always a solid choice!!

    Bocce Ball
    Anand D.

    I have been coming to Ormsby's for about 10+ years now, and it's proven to be quite a staple in the Midtown neighborhood. This time around I came with my wife, and some family that was in from out of town. We only came for drinks, but they do have a full menu as well. The service is pretty good, but it can get quite sloppy when it's super busy, which is a fair trade-off. There is an upstairs and a downstairs area. The upstairs area is much more tame than the downstairs area. Upstairs you can have a conversation where you don't have to yell so much, but when you're downstairs, especially on a weekend, it gets extremely loud. Ormsby's has a bunch of different board games in addition to 2 full bocce ball courts downstairs as well. Ormsby's is definitely the type of place you go to with a group of people. It's not exactly a date night spot, in my opinion. It's located right in the Westside Provisions District, so it's close to many other restaurants as well. I would recommend coming to Ormsby's for drinks either before or after an outing. The food is good, but the vibe is more-so of a drinking one, not an eating one. There is a parking deck attached to this entire retail space, but I am not too entirely sure if they validate parking or not. I would suggest using ride-share, so you don't waste time and money trying to find parking. Orsmby's is definitely a fun spot that you won't regret going to! I'll be back for sure.

    Yard House 261 19th. St. NW #1100…read moreAtlanta, GA 30363 Fried Calamari (not pictured) 20 Oz. Bone-In Rib Eye When I initially entered the restaurant, the service started off rocky. My girlfriend, her son, and I requested a booth. The hostess told us the wait time would be 20 minutes. Over 45 minutes had passed and we were still waiting for the booth. Another party had several minutes after us and they were immediately seated in a booth. Management admitted they unintentionally seated the other party first and they apologized. To compensate for this mistake, the server still honored the Happy Hour menu; our wait was so long that Happy Hour had just ended. We initially ordered an appetizer that was not eligible for the Happy Hour rate, so we changed our order to fried calamari (not pictured). The server originally still attempted to serve our first appetizer after we mentioned that we wanted the calamari. After this correction was made, the fried calamari was excellent. It was crunchy on the outside while chewy on the inside. The roasted jalapeño tartar sauce and spicy tomato sauces were perfect sides to the dish. As soon as the meal arrived, it was a decent finish to a rocky start. The steak was cooked medium, but still had a fair amount of pink. The cut was tender and juicy. I especially enjoyed the dipping sauce because of its bourbon flavor; I highly recommend requesting a second cup because the sauce also paired well with the mashed potatoes and broccoli. While my experience with the main course was spot on, there was a tweak with my girlfriend's son. He ordered truffle fries as part of his side dish, but it arrived several minutes after everything had already been served. He barely ate any, but he requested a doggy bag. Overall, the experience started off on a negative note with a few bumps along the way, but I was highly pleased with the meal and appetizer itself. If I ever visit this particular establishment again, I most likely will order my meal for takeout. #yardhouse #yardhouseatlanta #20ounceribeye

Seating requires some hunting and some luck as it was very crowded whenever we walked by it. The drinks and food are pretty normal for bar food, not bad at all but pretty bar food oriented. The vibe inside is a little dark and loud while outside is a very nice place to sit but also surprisingly loud as there really are a lot of seats on the patio. They have a pizza and wine deal with a nearby pizza place one day a week and that's both a good bargain and a neat way to have more food options. I would recommend trying this if you can.

We arrived around 1 pm on a Saturday and had issue finding parking in their main lot. There is an overflow lot behind the building and there is signage to direct there if needed. When we arrived, we smelled something delicious coming from the on-site food truck, heard some great live music coming from inside and there were a ton of folks inside and outside just having a good ol time. Once we walked inside, there was plenty of beer on tap but I appreciated that there were frozen drinks available and with their partnership with Urban Tree, I was excited to see some of my old favorite ciders. The guy that helped me was super sweet and helpful. He made some great suggestions and I had a vodka blueberry lemonade, came back later for a water-marita which was my favorite. We order some loaded fries from their onsite food truck and the fries were amazinggggg! Huge portion, hot, and just the right amount of food. They have plenty of other stuff on the menu but the fries were good enough for the both of us. I totally forgot what drink my husband got but I do remember he enjoyed them. We had a great time just people watching, listening to music and chatting with folks. This is a good place to just come and hang for awhile for sure and we'll be back sooooooon.

Holeman and Finch is known for its burger, and deservedly so, but I can't stress enough how good the other food and drink are here. Looking at the current list of Atlanta restaurants in the Michelin Guide, I think Holeman and Finch deserves to be included. I wonder why they got snubbed. Holeman and Finch relocated to Colony Square in Midtown in February 2023. The restaurant validates parking in the Colony Square garage for two hours. We stayed just over two hours and ended up paying $6. I like to enter and exit the garage via Peachtree St NE. There's also an entrance/exit on 14th St NE, next to The Starling hotel. We used to go to the original location in Brookwood/South Buckhead circa 2010 when only 24 burgers were made per night and released at 10pm. Holeman and Finch existed in that location from 2008 to 2020. It was quite the Yelp hot spot: https://www.yelp.com/biz/holeman-and-finch-atlanta-2 This new location at Colony Square is way more spacious and looks great. There's indoor and outdoor (covered and uncovered) seating. The atmosphere is that of a modern, upscale pub. It's nice. Reservations can be booked on OpenTable, so get those dining points. Our server said the brunch menu was served until 4pm. Here's what my wife and I had: Drinks: * H&F Bloody Mary ($14) * Iced Tea - half sweet, half unsweet ($5) Graze: * Naturally Served Oysters ($5 each) - cocktail sauce, mignonette, buttered saltines, horseradish - Lowcountry Cups - Charleston, SC - Dukes of Topsail - Topsail Sound, NC - Dixon Point - New Brunswick, Canada * Deviled Egg Trio ($9) - classic, country ham, and Pickapeppa mayo * Hand Chopped Sirloin Steak Tartare ($20) - capers, horseradish, egg yolk, chips * Simple Lettuces ($15) - citrus vinaigrette, crisp shallots, fromage blanc, pecans Sandwiches: * H+F Cheeseburger ($28) - certified Angus and Hereford beef, onions, Kraft, fries Plates: * Housemade Scottish Gravlax ($18) - toasted brioche, fried Pantelleria capers, lemon dill clabber * Holeman + Finch Vegetable Plate ($32) - "all that is best from our Southern farms" Dessert: * Sticky Toffee Pudding ($14) - vanilla ice cream Everything, down to the sweet tea, was fantastic. The Bloody Mary was strong and so delicious that I gulped it down. All of the dishes were beautifully plated and finished. The oysters were fresh, superb quality, and cleanly shucked. They forgot the crackers, but that's okay. I highly recommend the deviled eggs. They were perhaps the best we've ever had anywhere. If you're unfamiliar with Pickapeppa, it's a sweet and savory Jamaican brown sauce that is used to make the mayo for this dish. There was nothing "simple" about the Simple Lettuces salad. It was pretty much a perfect, tasty, and refreshing salad. As for the H+F Cheeseburger, it's a classic and continues to be one of the best burgers around. Every bite is just so good, and the ketchup and mustard remain distinct. If you've never had the burger before, get it here or at H&F Burger at Ponce City Market. The Truist Park version isn't the same and I've never tried the Mercedes-Benz Stadium version (the old Turner Field version was legit, though). If you like gravlax, wow - the gravlax here is amazing and really well made. The Vegetable Plate was terrific as well. It featured potatoes, okra, beans, succotash, mushrooms, onions, peppers, tomatoes, and more with a fried onion ring on top. It's a great dish to share. The Sticky Toffee Pudding was top-notch - exceptional texture and flavor, and perfectly paired with a scoop of dense vanilla ice cream. Our server was Jonathan R.

Pick the night you want to go, and go on that night because it's going to be a lot of fun if you pick the right vibe and music you're looking for.
