    SESAME CHICKEN BITES
    Beth M.

    Fun family night at Sebastian Pintxos. Our second visit and the second time we had fun, and ate well. One big change from our previous visit was the size of the pitchers. We ordered 2 of them (based off our previous experience) and it was tooooo much! Sangria was great though! Sesame chicken bites were a big hit - the sauce ! The ceviche was delicious. Service was good on a busy Saturday Night.

    Came here recently for their generous happy hour deal and was not impressed. The chips that came with the avocado dip were all stale. The hummus was bland and the pita that came with it was barely warm. The pork belly looked more like bacon and was cooked too long, extremely dry instead of the juicy pork belly one normally finds at restaurants. The croquettes were fine at least and our server was nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The patio area wasn't very clean and cluttered with all sorts of decor like cheap plastic flowers falling off the window panes and inflatables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall: the happy hour is cheap here because the food is not good. I would not come back or recommend to anyone else.

    2 for $40 brunch

    I was disappointed by the lack of transparency from our waitress. She didn't explain that ordering a "double" (thinking she meant double shot) would be charged as two drinks or that an 18% gratuity was automatically included. Additionally, the waitress never showed us the itemized bill and went straight to the payment screen, so we weren't shown the breakdown which what made me ask more questions. Total was $130+ for 2 for $40 brunch, 2 doubles and 1 single drink... The total didn't seem right, so I had to email the restaurant to get a copy of the itemized receipt. That's when I realized a dish we never received had still been on the bill as well. I don't mind paying for what I order, but I do expect transparency. A quick explanation of the charges while ordering and an opportunity to review the itemized bill before payment would have made for a much better experience. The manager was quick to respond and handled it well. The food was okay and drinks tasted good.

    It wasn't worth the $25 entry fee after we simply walked in, went downstairs, & sat ourselves at a table that just so happen to be available. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was advertised as a "dance party", but it was in a tiny hole in the wall hookak/bar area. It had thee tiniest "dance floor" that barely accommodated a handful of folks line dancing without stopping to avoid a collision.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to ask if we were in the right space & we even went back upstairs to double check.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This might be better as a walk in taco Tuesday or happy hour vibe, but leave the themed events to other establishments.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waitress & crowd was cool, but otherwise this experience was just "ok." [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you insist, at least decorate the area & have an on theme menu.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Otw out we noticed a Valentine day photo opp, but ATL yall need to do better & stop tryna milk people just because it's a holiday.

    This was a yummy experience. The food was very well crafted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I could see coming here for a cute date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The DJ was awesome, they had a featured DJ that night and she was very entertaining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I've heard this is a good social spot but the way the layout of the restaurant is I'm not exactly sure how. It didn't feel like there was enough standing room to just hang out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    The food was actually really good but Cinco de Mayo is not their strong suit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They weren't that prepared for the crowds.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were a party of 5 and we were told the wait time to be seated was 35 minutes, we were sat after about 50 minutes of waiting. The service was attentive however just slow. We ordered our margaritas first and received them an hour and a half later. Our appetizers came out and all of our food did too before the drinks did. We also ordered an additional avocado dip which never came out. The avocado dip however was very tasty. It's the same taste of guacamole but the consistency is much creamier. I also had the beef empanada and steak taco which were both very flavorful. I also recommend the guava margarita. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very loud in there which I believe was due to the holiday/DJ.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I tried this spot recently with my friend. The service was about 3.5 stars but food 3 stars. My stomach was not feeling well that day so we only ordered two tapas and three sides. The flavors were OK. I tried the sautéed shrimp. The meat tasted fresh, the broth went well with the shrimp. But I do not understand why this "sautéed" stuff was served with lots of broth, and tasted like it was poached in broth. Moreover, the shrimp was just slightly bigger than the Publix white shrimp but cost $16 for four! ... I was allergic to octopus so I did not try the other dish. My friend thought this sour-ish dish was interesting, as she neither had octopus with artichoke, nor with the cajun seasoning. For the sides, we got the rice for $7, pico de gallo for $5 and pita for $1. The rice seemed to be cooked with coconut milk, though the flavor of coconut is very subtle. The pico de gallo was disappointing: not only was it extremely tiny but it lacked cucumbers and jalapenos (there was, however, red chili flakes). The pita weighed about 74g (2.6oz) and had some whole wheat. Looks like something store-bought. The server was very unfamiliar with the menu. Worse, no one in the restaurant reminded me of dishes that use octopus, squid, calamari, etc. which I am allergic to. Besides, the menu was very "concise"; for example no meat or cheese choices were listed for the charcuterie platter.

    FUN! Vibrant! Delicious food and festive holiday-joint! I was SO pleasantly surprised and impressed with Sebastian Pintxos Bar!! I had no expectations going in, and had never heard of the spot. Upon entering, eating engulfed me in a wonderful winter Wonderland of Christmas decor. We were hosting a Work dinner/happy hour here, and to my surprise (given the designation of being a "bar"), the footprint of the restaurant is vast and highly conducive to a group meal. The food was extremely delicious. I would go back just to have some of that! We were able to get a little bit of everything, but I especially loved what I think was a chimichurri skirt steak! The service was so excellent and accommodating. We had a lot of moving pieces with our large party, and they were happy to be flexible our wonderful server then generously spent a good bit of time taking group photos of us! Overall, I loved this experience, I hope to go back soon, and I highly recommend this place for a group/work event location! Especially in the winter with the festive decor!

    First time visiting Sebastian before a show at the Fox. It's on Juniper and I walked over from the Fox parking so I did not notice the parking situation. When I arrived I was greeted by the host who sat me even though my friend's reservation was not found and I was the first of four to arrive. It happened to be Taco Tuesday and by the time everyone arrived we had ordered a lot of food and drinks. I had the dragon fruit lemonade me and some of the other gals had dragonfruit margaritas. We were told they make their own dragonfruit syrup and it was so good. For dinner we split the avocado dip, croquettes, Brussels sprouts and papayas fritas. I had chicken tacos as well. Everything was so good and came out warm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The area had music playing and soccer matches on the TVs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Once we finished it was off to the Fox. It is about a ten minute walk so keep that in mind if you are going before a show. I will be back.

    PINTXOS PARTY AT SEBASTIAN PINTXOS BAR | we stopped in for the tapas and sangria for my friend's birthday and left with a full-on flamenco dancing experience! From beginning to end, the performance, the presentation and the vibes are 100! We started with the tableside sangria cart, which you can build from start to finish - whether you want red or white sangria and what toppings you would like. Definitely a nice touch. We sipped on our sangria while watching the flamenco dancer performing. We also tried some cocktails - the butterfly pea & lavender Negroni was a beautiful gin cocktail, a gorgeous purple and also tasty. The blackberry lemongrass espresso martini was also a fun show - the bartender torches the espresso beans right before your eyes before topping the cocktail with them. Next, tapas! We loved EVERYTHING, from the fresh oysters and hamachi crudo to the bombas de iberico and the pulpo a la Vida. And of course we had to order paella - definitely get the seafood! AND DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT DESSERT - we ended up ordering 3 to share. I couldn't choose one favorite, they were all tasty. We tried the churros espanoles, the crema catalana and the tarta de queso vasca. Definitely try at least one! The outdoor patio was a bit chilly in January (yes, a very late review) but would be perfect in the upcoming fall weather, especially with the colorful umbrellas hanging overhead. The perfect spot for a fun night out - whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just finding something fun and different to eat and drink, Sebastian Pintxos is the best spot in midtown for it!

    So this was a pretty solid spot. I ended up going for happy hour and really only majority had drinks. But I'll get to that. So this spot is midtown and there is no free parking. There is a lot right next door but other than that you have to do your own parking search. When I was there I did get a couple things upstairs. I tried the brussel sprouts, they were pretty good. Nothing mind-blowing but pretty decent. Also tried the pork belly, which came with four strips of pork belly. This one had a decent flavor but wouldn't be anything that I would rush to get back again. For the price. It wasn't bad but you only still got four little fingerlings of them. The staff was super cool and the ambience is dope. As you can see in the pictures, it's very decorative and great on the eyes. The last time I went, I was at the bar... I have never sat down in an actual seat. But I'm a fan of the bar anyway. Bartender was pretty clutch though. The selling point for me was the "speakeasy" downstairs. If you go downstairs there is a full bar and hookah bar. It was a great vibe. You had TVs and good music ... I would go back It for nothing but the vibe of the downstairs area.

There probably isn't a bar in the city that offers as breathtaking of a view as does Moonlight. The panorama of all three of Atlanta's skyscraper centers is clearly visible, along with the historical architecture of Ponce City Market.

The lobster roll was very bread heavy and the useless dab of caviar was just a wasteful decoration.

A reservation doesn't promise a table right away but keeps you in an active queue. I can't wait to go back again.

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.

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.
