My friends and I returned to Saints + Council to enjoy a weekend brunch. Parking at Colony Square is plentiful and S+C validated parking for 2 hours. I was able to make a reservation on open table for 4 adults earlier in the week. The hostesses greeted us and walked us to the table. Our server came over to take our drink orders and made suggestions for brunch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed our brunch while listening to a talented violinist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We look forward to returning once the weather gets cooler and enjoying the outdoor seating.
5 stars! I had such a great experience at Saints + Council. The food was absolutely delicious(try the salmon), the service was attentive and welcoming, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance was beautiful[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. It's the kind of place that's perfect for a date night, brunch with friends, or celebrating a special occasion. Everything felt thoughtfully done, and I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!
I came here to celebrate a friends birthday and it's safe to say it's officially bookmarked as date night spot! I parked in the garage at the red deck which is $24, however, bring your ticket because they validate it. I ended up paying $15 instead. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we arrived, there was a violinist playing r&b songs. I believe he left around 3:30 PM, so get they're early![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Anyway I had an espresso martini to start and it was decent. For my entree I went with the Crispy Chicken + Dutch. Their dinner menu doesn't start until 5:00 PM. Anyway my meal was delicious! I will be back to order my own eggs & short ribs because that was good too! Everyone enjoyed their meal and this restaurant!
Everything was delicious. Our server Connor did an outstanding job explaining the menu and making us feel welcome. We tried a variety of different dishes on the menu and we were not disappointed. I highly recommend you visit if you're looking for an elevated brunch experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bonus is the live violinist who was phenomenal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a lively spot, so prepare to enjoy yourself.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
I would recommend booking a reservation on Open Table for brunch as it was pretty busy! Service was great and the server answered our questions. The hot chocolate is delicious but a little steep at $9 a cup. The classic Dutch baby was really good a the perfect size to split! I was kind of full from the Dutch baby so went simple with my main course. I ordered a side of Gouda eggs and a homemade biscuit. Honestly all of the food was really good and came out quickly! They give out little postcards at the end of the meal which is a cute way to finish the meal. They validate parking in the underground garage for up to 2 hours which is a super nice perk! Otherwise, it's $6 every 30 minutes fyi. Looks like valet is available too.
This was my first time coming to Saints + Council, my aunt booked this due to all other places being full during brunch. It was absolutely packed when we went in, we checked in right at our reservation time and was sat with in minutes. We booked outdoor seating not aware of how the weather was going to be ( it was chilly ). We asked our waiter Brandon if we could move inside, he stated because it was busy we may not have a table but we can sit in the couch area next to the fire place so we agreed (it was better than a table in my opinion). Our server Brandon was very accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable! We had never heard of the Dutch Baby food item so we decided to try it based off of his recommendation, and it was amazing! I had the Shrimp and Grits with collards and never experienced a better flavor, from the grits to the sauce that topped it, the flavor was insaneee! My party had the Short Rib Gratin and Short Rib and Eggs they LOVED it. We also had cocktails The Garden of Eden super earthy and light. Overall 10/10 experience! The violinist was a perfect touch to the ambiance and the food was like none other! Can't wait to come back and try the dinner menu!!
I don't want to gate keep but this place has amazing food, [[HIGHLIGHT]]great ambience[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and wonderful service. I've been twice, once for brunch and once for dinner. Reservations are recommended but we didn't have any for brunch but lucked out with some seats at the bar. Food and cocktail was great so I decided to return with some friends from out of town for dinner. I wish I remembered the happy Latino server's name but he made some great recommendations and sang to us lol he was special. We tried the fried green tomatoes, bone broth, and I had the redfish - which was subbed for another fish that night. Everyone's dish came out great and we loved every bite. They surprised us at the end with postcards with different images to personalize and mail to someone of our choice. They pay for postage and everything. Overall a great restaurant for locals and out of towners alike.
Had a great dinner here last week with a large group. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat on the outside patio and had a nice, long dinner here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We pretty much ordered everything in the menu. I personally loved the fried green tomatoes and the braised short ribs. The s'mores dessert was amazing as well. I believe our server's name was Helen or Holly (sorry!); she was lovely--easy to talk to and funny.
Saints & Council is an upscale southern restaurant in Colony Square. The four of us were seated in a comfortably sized rounded booth where we could all easily reach the shared plates. Speaking of shared plates, we started with the stuffed oysters, fried green tomatoes, bruschetta, & crab dip. These are generous portions so we were all content to stop eating. They are, however, known for their slow-cooked dishes so we forced ourselves to order the pork chop & braised short ribs to share. We added side plates of green beans & collards with seasoned cornbread. We thought we were full but we left nothing but bones. It was perfect. The cocktails were made as requested and our server, Caroline, was an excellent guide. My sister will receive some of her favourite chocolates for this recommendation.
Decided to try Saints & Council for my birthday brunch, and for a first visit, it was a pretty good experience overall. The vibe is really nice -- bright, modern, and perfect for a celebratory meal. Ordered the Summer Reverlé to drink, and it was refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness. For food, went with the Apple Crumble Pancake Breakfast plus a side of potatoes. The pancakes were beautiful and had great flavor, though I'd say the overall meal was alright rather than amazing. The potatoes were a solid addition, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Service was friendly, and the atmosphere definitely makes it a spot worth trying, especially for special occasions. I'd come back to explore dinner.
We had an excellent dinner at Saints + Council for my friend's birthday. Iv'e been here twice: once for a birthday dinner and once for date night. Both times, the food, service, and atmosphere were impeccable. They serve brunch and lunch too. For starters, park in the underground garage. Make sure to bring your parking ticket with you as Saints + Council validates for two hours. Once they validate, you have 20 minutes to leave the garage or else you must pay the full fare ($30 !!!) I've experienced the interior bar as well as the spacious outdoor patio with both covered and uncovered seating. Several dining room doors can open, facing the patio and Colony Square, creating a cool, airy vibe. The bar features traditional barstool seating, as well as high tip tables that "jut out" from the bar, creating a casual yet intimate dining experience. We walked in on a Saturday night with no reservations, so this was out only option, but it ended up being a great seating option for our date night. At the birthday dinner, all 14 of us were seated banquet style among the lush greenery and twinkling lights of the patio. We only had one server, but he handled our party with dedication and professionalism. We enjoyed the following: Baked crab dip Stuffed oysters Caesar salad Roasted pappardelle pasta Duck Confit as well as Dante's Revenge and Garden of Eden cocktails The drinks were strong yet flavorful. As for the food, everything was delicious. There wasn't a single bad dish. Portions were generous and the pasta was creamy, hearty, and flavorful. The duck confit was crisped to perfection and the accompanying sauce was amazing. We were too stuffed for dessert, but the dessert menu was tempting... maybe next time. And trust me, there will be a next time!
The restaurant was extremely nice on the outside. Walking into the restaurant it looks very upscale and great for date nights. I wouldn't say it is stuffy though, which is good. We had a reservation for 8pm on Friday night. The food was good. We got the crab dip as a starter which was really fresh. It is warm, so be mindful if you like cold crab dip. The dip came with Pita chips. We got the duck confit and the pasta. The duck was very tender and flavored. The red cabbage gave it an extra layer of flavor as well. 9/10. My girlfriend says that the pasta was extremely good. Considering she traveled to Italy, I value her opinion on pasta. 10/10.
We had an excellent dinner at Saints + Council on Saturday. The food, service, and atmosphere were great. I recommend this place for a nice date or group dinner. They're open for brunch and lunch too. Saints + Council is keeping the 2010s trend of "[insert word here] and [insert word here]" restaurant names going in the 2020s. Examples: Cooks & Soldiers, Bread & Butterfly, The Deer and The Dove. Saints + Council opened at Colony Square in Midtown Atlanta on December 10, 2021. Park in the Colony Square underground garage. You can enter via either Peachtree St NE or 14th St NE. Take your parking ticket with you. Saints + Council validates for two hours. Once they validate, you have 20 minutes to leave the garage or the validation is no good. If you want to stroll around or go elsewhere (e.g., at Colony Square) afterwards, you can return to the host stand later for validation. The Colony Square parking rate was $6 per 30 minutes. We were in and out in 2 hours 31 minutes. Parking cost $30 less $21 with validation. I was charged $9. Now almost four years old, the restaurant still looks new, fresh, and beautiful. Inside and out, it's clean and sophisticated. The design is classy and not overdone. There's a spacious outdoor patio with both covered and uncovered seating. Several dining room doors can open, facing the patio and Colony Square, creating a cool, airy vibe. During our visit, the executive chef stood on a platform by the kitchen, finishing dishes while overlooking the interior with an intimidating presence. Book reservations using OpenTable. Saints + Council awards 100 points per reservation. The restaurant was busy, but not completely full, when we were there. The business describes its cuisine/menu as "Modern-American offerings with an emphasis on smoked, braised and confit meats." Here's what my wife and I had: Mindful Pours (mocktails) * Spring Talbot ($13) - Lyre's non-alcoholic agave liqueur, lavender, honey, lemon, bubbles (spirit-free) Shared Plates * Hand-Tied Burrata ($18) - fresh burrata, marinated asparagus ribbons, chili-basil oil, crispy toasted crostini * Spicy Mussels ($19) - Prince Edward Island mussels, arbol chili, roasted tomato, cream, focaccia * Oysters on the Half Shell (12 for $42) - Bosc pear, peppered honey mignonette Salads * Little Gem Caesar ($14) - white anchovy dressing, Parmesan, bacon migas, fried capers, cured egg Slow-Cooked * Duck Confit ($35) - duck legs, braised red cabbage, roasted acorn squash, dark cherry molasses Main * Lemon Miso Salmon ($32) - miso-glazed Atlantic salmon, crispy potatoes, blistered asparagus, miso lemon compound butter Desserts * Bick's Famous Peanut Butter Pie ($15) - creamy and whipped peanut butter pie, peanut butter cups, cookies + cream crust First, the drink. The Spring Talbot mocktail was a little too sweet. Something as simple as a poppi would've actually been better. As for the food, everything was delicious. There wasn't a single bad dish. Why four stars instead of five? While everything was solid, nothing was mind-blowing. Gut says four instead of five. A strong four, 4.5. Regardless, the food was very good. We love burrata and a lot of places serve it. Saints + Council's Burrata was different in the way it was tied (presentation), and the asparagus ribbons were creative and original. The Spicy Mussels impressed me the most. This is another dish a lot of places do, but Saints + Council had one of the best I've tasted in recent years (and it was nice and spicy). The oysters were Blue Points. They were pre-dressed (you don't see that often and I appreciated it), super fresh, cleanly shucked, and flavorful. The honey mignonette added a distinct sweet flavor, which I admittedly wasn't the biggest fan of. I prefer my oysters more plain and briny, but these are still worth ordering. The Little Gem Caesar had some extra salty and sour to it because of the fried capers and chopped cured egg. Not bad at all. Of the entrees, the Lemon Miso Salmon outshined the slow-cooked Duck Confit. Our server suggested the salmon. Salmon is one of the last dishes we order, especially at a nicer place like this. But wow, it was incredible. Something you can't make at home, from the texture of the salmon to the balance of flavors. It was very nuanced. Compared to the salmon, the Duck Confit was not as impactful flavorwise, but it was still tasty and satisfying. Portions were generous. The Peanut Butter Pie was amazing and probably my favorite dish. I highly recommend it. It was light, creamy, and fluffy, yet also rich and delectably sweet. Even my wife, who doesn't like peanut butter desserts, found it irresistible. Our server Emma Kate was friendly and efficient. She made thoughtful recommendations and carefully packed our leftovers. Something interesting at the end: We were handed Saints + Council postcards with our check. Emma Kate said we could write postcards and the restaurant would mail them for free. Unique and fun marketing.

Very beautiful restaurant, inside and outside. Cocktails are *perfect* and the bartenders are super professional and friendly. Drinks were so good we came back for breakfast the next day. The food was good. It was pricey. The biscuit and jam was a big disappointment, not soft at all and came pre toasted and buttered so it was crispy. Was hoping for a big soft warm biscuit. My sister got the dutch baby. It looked extremely eggy, and was a pool of lemon curd. She ate only part of it, but did say the curd was excellent. My avocado toast was good and the avocado was very fresh and tasty, but there was an absolute mountain of onions. It was very good toast, but there was just too much of it. 2 huge pieces is excessive and should really be shared with someone if you can't have the option of a half order. Recommend. read more

I absolutely love the decor and layout of the restaurant as well as the location. Not for the parking but for the convenience and walk ability.. love that about Midtown! The menu is selective with not too many options, I must say that every dish is its own. The oysters were great..a tad dry but still really good. I also enjoyed the smash burger and Brussels sprouts. The Brussels sprouts weren't too salty or overcooked, like grilled perfectly. The crab dip was delicious too. The service, on every occasion, has been pleasant, professional and friendly! read more

My husband and I love trying out new restaurants. We chose Saints + Council to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. The ambience was absolutely so romantic and chic. The drinks were delicious and paired well with our appetizers, entree and dessert. We had a lovely cozy booth. Service was great and food was spectacular. We will definitely be back! read more

My girlfriends and I came here on a Friday night to celebrate a friend birthday. The location of the restaurant was a little hard to find but once we found it was easy to get to and from the parking deck. The location of the restaurant was in a very nice area as this was my first time here. The food, service and hospitality were Great! We ordered one of each items from the appetizer and a few of the main entrees and just shared! EVERYTHING was amazing definitely worth every penny spent! I would say my favorite entree was the chilled sea bass it was cooked to perfection. 10 stars for the chef!! I highly recommend it and will definitely be back! read more
I really enjoyed this restaurant. The vibes were very cool - felt like a rustic yet fancy spot with dim lighting. You are definitely transformed when eating here. The food was delicious. I got the braised short rib and it was excellent. My fiancée got the salmon and enjoyed it. We also got the cauliflower and cheese dip appetizer and enjoyed them both. The service was also great and very friendly. They also validate parking. read more
This place has THE BEST grilled cheese I've ever had at a restaurant. Go here for lunch and you will not be disappointed. Great service, great atmosphere, great food. Also the serving sizes are fantastic for those of us with a big appetite! Side note, very clever decor having photos of "saints" as a nod to the name. *Chefs kiss* read more

Dining at Saints + Council was nothing short of AMAZING! Everything from the decor to the ambiance to the food service was superb. My friend chose this restaurant from her previous dining experience and I will say, this restaurant has me now in a choke hold and I will be returning back for more! I ordered the Baked Crab dip, the Smoked Chicken and the Carmelized Banana Bread Puddin' and I'm still reminiscing over how good everything tasted. This restaurant is such a vibe for showing someone new around the city a good time all the way to if you are trying to have a date night/girls night. Now in reading the other reviews, I will say finding the location of this restaurant is very challenging at first but if you ask around someone will point you in the right direction. lol. but at the moment I wasn't laughing. Living in Atlanta and having reservations does not mix well if you travel far and long to almost be late just because you can't find the location of the restaurant. Also, another annoyance which is not on the restaurant but the parking situation. Saint + Council is located at Colony Square in midtown with underground parking. With that being said parking that night was $28. Thank God the machine was broken when it was time to leave because Good Grief. Parking in Atlanta is getting out of hand and is making it really hard to enjoy just dining out properly. Overall, the experience I had was a 10/10 and I highly recommend everyone go try Saints + Council. read more
Finally checked out this spot. The decor is lavish. It has a warm vibe. The service was good. It would have been great if the server would have asked if I wanted her to get me another lemon drop. I ordered a lemon drop and asked for it not to have a sugar rim. Well when it was delivered it had a sugar rim. She said I see they put the sugar on it anyway for you and walked away. I assumed she was going to get it remade, but no. I had to call her over and ask her to have it remade without the sugar rim. My new drink was perfectly refreshing. The stuffed oysters were amazing!!! I could have eaten another order of them. The crab dip was ok. I've had better. The burger was delicious!!! I truly enjoyed it and the fries. I'm definitely adding this to my date night list!!! read more

My brother in-law recommended S&C, but he warned me he never ate here, but heard it was good. Well, it was a disappointment. The highlight was the service, but the food was marginal at best. We started with the baked crab dip and it was meh. The one bright spot was that it was a reasonable portion size and came with plenty of pita crisps. My business partner ordered the burger and I had the skirt steak. The steak was literally 3 cut strips of the steak served in a small cast iron pan with chimichurri drizzled on top. Honestly, the start of that dish was the side of Brussel sprouts. The $23 burger was as plain as they come. The restaurant space was okay, but maybe a little too loud for my liking. In my opinion, there are way better restaurants for a better value in that area. read more
Had brunch here today. The space is really beautiful and intimate. They had a saxophone player, which was a nice touch, but a bit too loud for having a decent conversation. Our server, I forgot her name was very responsive and diligent, so there were no real complaints about the service aspect. The menu, in my opinion, is very limited if you have dietary restrictions. No real vegan/vegetarian options. Bomber for the person in my party who had to settle for a dish they really didn't desire. I had the Dutch boy with chicken and blistered greens. This dish was just Meh.. No WOW factor, just okay. Definitely wouldn't get it again. I would consider coming back for the cinnamon pancakes ..very tasty. Overall, this is a place with great promise. Maybe the dinner menu is more inviting, but I'm in no real rush to return even though it's in proximity to my workplace. read more
I stopped in on a Thursday night for a date. It was our second date and so I made a reservation. The reservation was honored and the interior was full of muted lighting and dark wood. All of the servers and staff were very friendly. I was told that I had to get the burger. It says that it comes with fries and after some debate I was able to get the fries swapped for Brussels sprouts which was good. The burger itself was very juicy. They clearly used steak to make the burger. Is it the best burger in Atlanta? Maybe not. But is it a phenomenal choice for a reasonable price on their menu. You bet it is. They do validate parking in colony square. read more

We decided to do brunch on our last day in Atlanta and I am so glad we chose Saints + Council for our meal! What a fantastic venue! Nestled on the ground floor of a large corporate complex, they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. We opted for outside, and they turned on the heater at our request. Our server was amazing! She had great recommendations and was very friendly. The donuts were fantastic-both light and fluffy and served with delicious dips! We ordered a biscuit and gravy, and the braised short rib au gratin. Our friends had the classic Dutch baby. Everything was delicious! Our only suggestion - let your barista be the Slayer! read more

Our meals were delicious but the service was rather lackluster. We had reservations for 830 but weren't seated until 9pm, which was definitely a frustrating start. When we asked for an update they would just tell us that they didn't really have one. We were finally seated at a beautiful table in a very ornate large dining room. It was just surprising to me that everything seemed very hectic for a restaurant that looks like it should be a well oiled machine. It was a Sunday at 9pm so I didn't think it was particularly busy, but what do I know. I do know that we ordered a lot of steaks. I never say this but truthfully they were all undercooked. We ordered 4 medium rare and 1 medium. The medium rare were all rare and the medium was cooked a perfect pink medium rare. Maybe they just have a different method of measuring, but I would believe the system is universal. We made fun of our friend for ordering medium but she laughed at us at the end of the day! I also ordered the Georgia risotto which was very good. I loved the pieces of short rib on top. I also had a couple of the undercover angels which were perfect. A lovely lavender flavor. read more

I'm speaking for the vegans who are looking for a good meal and might be amongst a group of carnivores. I went to Saint + Council for a solo date and I was happy that I chose to dine there. As the only vegan in my circle, I am always on the hunt for a great meal that I can enjoy outside a fully vegan establishment. I ordered the Charred Cauliflower Steak and it did not disappoint!! The flavors were there and I loved the maple parsnips that the steak laid on. I paired it with the green beans which were seasoned well and ordered the Spring Talbot mocktail! Definitely try them out!! read more
Great herbed ricotta toast w tomatoes, I also ordered the shrimp toast but it was sadly not as mind-blowing as the tomato toast. It was a little cold considering the wait time and felt like it had been sitting out for a bit. However I was in a large group so that could account for this. Our server was super friendly and helpful with our orders. The resteraunt was pretty dim and it was hard to see the food as I was eating it, but overall a pretty lively atmosphere. Good for a special occasion but not my top rec for a nicer place to eat, price doesn't seem super justified in terms of food unless you're going for the vibes. read more
Upon a recommendation from a pal, we tried Saints + Council prior to a show at the Alliance. if you're ever looking for pre-show grub, restaurants like S+C at Colony Square are a smart choice (5-min walk). The designer of this joint absolutely nailed the decor. as a native New Yorker I was reminded of fine-dining establishments near the MET. I asked for a special table for gal pals and they didn't disappoint: we were seated in a cubby filled with pictures of famous people--some worthy (Dolly Parton) and some not (Antonin Scalia & JK Rowling). since I was dining with actors/producers, we all agreed the restaurant and our table, specifically, felt like one of those after-curtain-comes-down haunts frequented by Broadway stars. IOW, think of Saints + Council as a reimagined/modernized Sardi's. we started with the crab dip, which is an absolute must as their pita chips are to die for. I also ordered the Georgia trout which was literally fabulous and perfectly cooked... my only note on that dish is it needs something more than just dressed arugula on top--just so the garnish matches the excellence of the fish cookery. cobbler for desert was great too. our cubby wasn't air conditioned and it felt extremely stuffy/humid in there, but for real though: being seated in that semi-private cubicle felt intimate and really completed the experience. on hot days the restaurant would be smart to have a fan at-the-ready. cannot recommend highly enough! read more
Extremely disappointed with our last visit here on Wednesday. We have been here multiple times and have always had a great experience but after this last visit it may take us a while to visit again. We had a reservation at 7 pm on the patio and did not get our drinks until 7:50 pm. We ordered our food and drink as soon as the server came over to the table as we were starving. Water took forever to arrive, and our server Disha S had the worst attitude. I don't even know how she could have possibly been hired as a hospitality worker. Zero hospitality, all the attitude. Side of fries was forgotten and at that point we just wanted to leave but were still starving so we reminded her about it and someone else delivered it to us. We should have asked for the check right then, but it wasn't our server, so we figured she'd eventually figure out that it's time for the check. We didn't see her for another 15-20 min. The check was ~ $100 and it's amazing how much control one person can have over your entire evening outing. read more

Hi Ksenia! Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I'm glad…
I LOVE this place. The decor is nice and the ambiance is very chill. I appreciated the staff so much! Our waiter was funny and honest about different recommendations on the menu. Their coffee was delicious - I definitely recommend brunch :) I got the crispy chicken + dutch (Dutch Baby) : Unfortunately, the chicken wasn't all the way cooked so I had to send it back... BUT the way the waiter and the manager responded was what made this place amazing. They were so apologetic and replaced my meal with something else and honestly, it was great. I instead got the braised short rib and eggs and it was delicious ! Now, the STAR of the show is definitely the biscuits! Their biscuits are some of the best biscuits I have ever had. They were perfectly moist and flaky Overall, the experience, decor & food really made this a great place to be. I will be coming back :) read more
I went to Saints + Council for brunch and it was absolutely amazing. The weather was really nice so my friend & I sat outside by the fire pit which created a very nice vibe. Inside they had a guy playing the violin by the bar. I love live music. We started out with the garden of Eden cocktail. It was very cute and tasted really good. For food I ordered the chicken + Dutch baby and my friend had the shrimp & grit cake. Our server Aaron told us we picked 2 of his favorite items. We both ate all of our food so that definitely tells you it was good lol. I saw berry pancakes at the table beside us & they looked really good! I'll definitely be back to try them. Don't forget to validate your parking at the hostess stand inside. read more

Finally had the chance to try Saints + Council after visiting the High for their wonderful Jazz Friday. We didn't have a reservation when we arrived just shortly before 9 pm. The place was still packed with hungry diners. It didn't seem like a very big restaurant inside and all the tables were taken, so the hostess asked if we wanted to sit at the bar or be seated outside. We opted to be seated outside since it was a nice night. The hostess walked us out and sat us in a 2 seater with a bottle of water. It seemed like there was no server assigned to our section since a bunch of other servers walked past us and waited awhile before Carlos checked in on us, who ended up being our server for the night. Since we waited a long time for anyone to take our order, we gave him our drinks and food orders at the same time. For drinks, I chose a non-alcoholic drink, Spring Talbot and my husband ordered the Venezuelan old fashioned. Both were delicious and refreshing. We opted to share a few dishes and got the house salad, mussels and burrata. I personally like my salad not too wet and this salad was not up to my liking. I did like the addition of poached egg and bacon bits. The mussels was actually a nice portion for $19, though some of the shells weren't open. It was simmered in a tomato cream based sauce but wish it had more of garlicky flavor. Our favorite was the burrata with ricotta cheese inside and the shaved asparagus. Loved the chili oil on the cheese to add another depth of flavor. We couldn't help but order dessert and opted for the peach cobbler, which in my opinion, was the best dish we had that night. The peach cobbler wasn't too hot but was warm with a good crust on top. It was served with ice cream with some crunchies on the side topped with sugar lace. This restaurant is certainly a good date night spot as it's quite intimate especially if you're seated inside. It could also be good for groups or a night out with your girlfriends. read more

Saints + Council is located in Colony Square. There's a parking garage and valet. We had a Thursday evening reservation. Around the time we went there weren't many people in the restaurant. Upon entering, we were greeted by the hostess and seated promptly. The ambiance of the restaurant is really nice and dimly lit. They also have an outdoor patio with a fire pit and heat lamps. We were seated near the window viewing the fire pit which was a nice touch. Our server was very thorough and went over the menu with us. For drinks we ordered the Hail Mary and Dante's Revenge. We started with the charbroiled oysters and smoked trout toast. I didn't know what to expect with the toast, but it was good. I really wanted the sea bass for my entree, but they were out of it. We went with the Ricotta Cavatelli and North Georgia Trout. The trout is served by itself, so it's best to order sides to go with it. We were celebrating my birthday, so I ordered the Caramelized Banana Bread Puddin', which they brought out with a candle. read more
