This place is fantastic. Ebony and Tamara made us feel welcomed. They were super friendly and helpful. We had been to several locations in Atlanta and we felt the best vibe from these two ladies tonight. Thank you for the experience today. We will definitely be back based on this experience. read more

I move to GA a few months ago & this has become my go to spot for wings! I go out of my way for the wings - the drinks are always good. I went for my birthday and it was taco night...of course I wanted wings and was going to leave. Instead, thanks to my girl Audrey they were able to accommodate us! The food, drinks, & vibes were AMAZING! Thank you so much sometimes the service is iffy but they 100% made my birthday special on a Tuesday! read more

Walked in and went straight to the bar. Ordered some drinks and appetizers. Service was a little slow but we were at the end and maybe they just forgot about us from time to time. Drinks were pretty weak. I felt like it was all juice and sugar and minimal alcohol. So we opted for a few shots. Cool thing about this place is that it had multi levels and each level had a different vibe. Try it if you're in the area just to see what it's about. But my suggestion is to stick to basic drinks and stay away from the premixed cocktails. read more

Great ambience, the food is amazing. I sat with my bestie on the bottom floor. The DJ kept it bumping all night. Taco Tuesday was great. But parking is walking distance but was $20, so you've been warned lol read more

The one stars if for a bartender who served us when someone greeted us at the door rudely. A friend and I came into this spot on a weekday evening. It was storming outside, but we wanted to get out and find a place to eat and have drinks. When we walked through the door from what was clearly a storm outside, we were greeted by a rude gentlemen who did not say, hi, hello..nothing.... The first words out of his mouth was "Oh we closed" in an extremely condescending and sarcastic manner. I had to ask if he was joking because I really thought he was just trying to play a joke on us based on his very Ill mannered tone. It was going on 9PM and the place is not supposed to closed until 12AM. Granted, maybe they were going to close early because it was storming outside, but the door was still open, I saw drinks still being served, food still coming out and there were a few parties seated...with the music on. The guy could clearly see that we'd just came from storming weather and very likely had parked somewhere far since it's downtown Atlanta and to take the sarcastic tone with us really baffled me. However, there was a young lady who stopped him and said I'll serve you so we sat at the bar with her. I thanked her several times and later wondered what was the point of him running up on us saying there were closed? Please get on the same page. To the food: If you don't like teeny tiny chicken wings do not order wings. My friend had a burger that he said seemed they threw together. I asked for blue cheese and they gave me what looked like a tiny squeeze. (Pictured) The photo is from me dipping one chicken wing in. We were there for less than an hour when they started stacking chairs not only around us but right next to my arm as I was eating my $15 tiny chicken wings. Extremely rude, again. The bartender was nice, and made sure I got a drink I liked because they were out of an ingredient for a drink I requested. Like I said, the one star is for her. If you're going to be in downtown Atlanta where parking is not free with small chicken wings and dry burger, the least you can do is be one accord and NICE. This was just a terrible experience all around. 1 star for the bartender. read more

This place is definitely a place you come when your feelings a lounge vibe and maybe have a larger crowd. It has 3 levels with different Dj's, I thought that was really cool. The menu was very basic and I didn't want anything on it. Also, you're better off getting shots at a place like this the bar was not fully stocked and had limited options and the drinks were so limited and basic. The vibe is nice but it's also important to have good food and drinks at an establishment serving them! read more

A small place. They have a large liquor selection and a pretty good craft beer list as well. I'm not form the area so I can't really comment on whether prices were reasonable or not. Craft beers are about $7-8 avg. (+2 for 24oz instead of pint) Some more. Some less. Shots look reasonable 3 for price of 2 on the board. $12-18 for a triple. Freddie was prompt with service and friendly. It was slow at 6pm on Friday night. I'd come back. The place looked clean. It was on a small brick road so took me a minute to find. read more

After another long day of enjoying the city, my friend and I came across Sidebar on TikTok. So we decided to go to there for dinner. We were unable to get a reservation due to our last minute decision, so we were not able to eat in the dining part on the first level where you entered. So we had to go to the first level downstairs where we were able to get a booth. Sidebar is 3 levels of fun and entertainment. The first level is where many go to eat dinner and dine in. The second level is like a lounge where you are in booth with music, hookah, drinks and a simpler menu to order food from. The bottom level is like a club where many are dancing and have sections you can sit in while dancing and enjoying a drink. We ordered the flight of margaritas and they were really good and strong lol. We could barely finish them lol. There lemon pepper wings with fries and veggie eggs rolls were good, and brought out hot. I advise if you want to eat in the dining area, reserve as early as possible. read more

Listen 10/10 truly recommend. Run don't walk. The food is sooooo good at Sidebar everything I had was a high 8 or 10. I recommend going during lucky 7 which is on Thursdays. They offer an unbeatable happy hour. $7 seafood spinach with big shrimp and crawfish my bestfriend and I scraped the bowl, $7 snow crab clusters these were my FAVORITE so good. $7 crab claws BOMB! Now the lamb chops are on the $7 menu and it is very misleading but they are $7 as well but you have to purchase a min of 3 so they are technically $21 bucks and should not be on the $7 menu. I almost took away a star for that but because the food was so good and our bartender BRANDY was such a PLEASURE they still deserve 5 stars. read more

Eh, was disappointed with the service. No one greeted us. Had to seat ourselves. My date and i quickly left. Not sure the next time I'll visit tbh.. read more

Came across this hidden gem on Ig!!! First impression was love how low key it is! If you aren't a heel wearer I would suggest to wear flat or sneakers! When you first walk in you can see the upper level bar and tables, this is for the more chill and drink vibe. The lower level has two parts, the first part is like a lounge and it is such a vibe! Chill, low key, music bumping! The lower part of this level is like a duck off spot where you just want to relax and enjoy a night out! The food was pretty good but it could have been hotter, I'm not sure if that was on the server not grabbing it in time or kitchen. The tacos and spinach dip were amazing you would definitely love it if you like a kick to your food! The wings were called killer lemon pepper wings but had no spice or lemon pepper taste to them! The drinks were ok in my opinion and after the happy hour ends they only had specials on tequila for their Thirsty Thursday special! Our server was nice but gave vibes she didn't want to be there, the surrounding tables servers were dancing, laughing, and interacting with their tables more! The peach cobbler was to die for though!!! Overall it was a good experience and I would definitely go back! read more

Really enjoyed ourselves in this classy low key chill spot. Service was outstanding from everyone. Ordered the fried shrimp and fries, they were on point for late night munchies. Dj was great too. Would go back. read more

Stopped in for some nachos and drinks. Asked about a tequila we weren't familiar with, was told it was good to try, so we ordered two on the rocks. Got the check. Each pour was $50. So three orders of nachos and a few drinks was $250. That's some BS! Would have been cool if it was $20-$25, but $50 a pour. Brianna needs to do better. Nachos we ok. Ground beef with your standard store bought seasoning. Would be better if they used beef other than hamburger. read more

Don't do it! Bad customer service! They kept moving our seats, low staff so the bartender was our server and she wasn't too attentive. I won't ever go back. Too bad too cause I was excited about going. I've been wanting to check them out for some time. read more

It was loud it was crazy. It was fun. I had a good drink and the fried shrimp for fresh and delicious. I wish the tables would've allowed us to interact with each other but we were downstairs and we all sat next to each other but it was still fun, but like I said, the shrimp were excellent. read more

I went here on the 24th of Feb 2022 and let me tell you something .... I do not understand what the hype is about but y'all are def lying! The second part at least was horrible it wasn't that much people in there, the food was E X P E N S I V E for what ? Salmon bites cost $20 when I had no fries and 7 pieces of salmon lol you kidding me ? And my friend had the chicken sandwich and FF $30 for her food and mindju the server wanna put everything together instead of separately for her to get some gratuity but when I say FINESSE CITY IS DEF ATL and it's not cool and the food had no seasoning at all like do better !!!!!!!!! That place sucks only thing good about it was the free shots for 1 hour ! And the DJ made that place other then that I will never be there again and to top it off it's like you walking into a "Tokyo Valentino " vibe at first (sex club) it's just weird but hey if someone is gay and LGBT ‍ no harm no hating here I think you would enjoy it it's a lot of under covers other then that the food SUCKS, the atmosphere is boring and can be better. If y'all see this ticket that's a plus I will be posting it and this is one of the places that's for the books cause I be on yelp all the time and this place is definitely a NO! Trust me!!!!! Don't even waste your time &.. what piss me off is the server HAD to write down what was "on the menu" instead of actually getting a menu so who knows how much shit really was this is cap central. ! Mindju lied to use to keep us there saying the kitchen was open while we waited 1 hour and 20 mins for our food when we shouldn't have ordered we def was gone go and come back the person in the front that "handled the money" even told us the kitchen wasn't open yet!!! So the servers lied and will finesse anything for you to stay just a heads up did I mention it's a NO FOR ME cause it is and I'm highly disappointed! read more

Sidebar has been around for a while and has seemed to withstand the open for a year and now closed cycle that a lot of bars go through. I've been coming here for over 10yrs and thought it'd be nice to write a review. Located on a one way street, this bar it's tucked away in the cut on Popular St. Mostly known for their Cuban sandwich, but the wings are tasty too. If the weather is good, be sure to check out the outside patio dining option. They use to have a downstairs lounge with pool tables and other games, but have since closed off that area. BAD MOVE!!! Regulars need to let the owner/management know that the downstairs aka the dungeon was hella fun and part of the appeal of this bar. The main bar area has several TVs and plenty of seating. If you're in the area, Sidebar is worth a visit. Btw, I sat at the bar... read more

DO NOT GO HERE! Worst service I ever experienced!! Left with no food that was already paid for. We waited over an hour for the food then waited an additional 30mins to try to get our money back. The whole time we were extremely patient. The owner was very dismissive and tried to slide us the money with, no apologies, no empathy, and did not care at all. Owner was totally trying to avoid all the guests with issues. Yes guests with an "s" we were not the only one. The food that was given to the table was cold. We asked for 2 Hennessy margaritas and received Hennessy and seemed to be simple syrup. Only one bartender was really working the other one was talking to guests not helping at all. Which caused service to be extremely slow. Would not recommend!! read more

Sidebar... where do I start? Gorgeous, recently renovated interior, safe and experienced security, a wide variety of events, ample selection of liquor, active and present owners... not to mention the service! When you come to sidebar you come for the experience. Whether it be a birthday party, football game, or just stopping by when you're in atlanta for work... the food is always filling. From weekly food specials all the way up to expensive dishes, there's something here for everyone. Don't go to landmark diner and be disappointed... sidebar is THEEEE place to be. read more

HORRIBLE!! Traveled 45 mins for their food. Got there and we was encouraged to sit downstairs. Got downstairs no one served us or spoke to us for nearly a hour. When someone did approach us, they were basically asking us to move so they can have bottle service at the table. During the time here, I went to the bar and ask every staff I could find "is your kitchen open" "can we get food down here" "are there waitress out here" ect!! All said yes, our girls are just coming in late. No water, snacks, hookah, or anything was offered the whole time we was waiting. The girl finally comes down. I see staff telling her that we are waiting shorty looks me dead in the face and proceeds to continue to walking about us for 20 more minutes. It was a waste of time, gas, and parking money! read more

People in Atl dont know what a dive bar is. Lol. Sidebar is far from a dive bar. It's way too nice inside. And the prices for drinks are through the roof. I ordered a Buffalo Trace on the rocks $13. I had to evacuate quickly before I broke the bank. People a "dive bar" is a whole in the wall, beaten down place where drinks are cheap and where most of your locals go. This isn't that. I ordered the grilled cheese, I know who orders a grilled cheese at a bar. Hey I was in ATL I was all chickened out lol. It wasn't too good I like my grilled cheese buttery it wasn't that. It was crisp though. With a nice cheese blend. It came with fries. Fries were ok at best. I should have got the wings they looked really good. Next time. I will just go for the wings and a water. Lol. It seemed like a nice place. It was nice inside with a. Nice long bar and nice TV set up. But not my type of bar. I need a good drink specials or cheaper drinks so I can stay for the Long haul of a football Saturday or Sunday. read more

Homey little bar with fun energy. I think it's a gay bar cuz I glanced up from the menu & 40 guys who looked like they play for the Falcons were jamming out to FERGALICIOUS. My type of energy tbh Anyway it was like 1 in the morning & they were still serving food & I was so happy about that. I ordered the chucky sauced wings & yalllll they were SO BOMB!! I always go with the house sauce bc I love having the home team experience. It was a sweet heat type deal. so so good! read more

The absolute worst. Only come here if you want to.listen to music. I ordered a chicken sandwich. After an hour, I was told there were no more buns. I pivoted to some chicken wings. After another half hour no wings and all the server could say was that it wasn't her fault. Manager came out and attempted to placate me. She said it would be taken cared of. After another thirty minutes, I still had no food. Absolute worst. read more

Braaaaandyyyyyy she is so welcoming and attentive. Everytime I come here Nrandy is going to be my go to

I came to this place the for the first time a few weeks ago with my boyfriend. My boyfriend used to come here all the time in college (its near GA State). Back then, this place was a good hole in the wall. When we walked in, we were so surprised. When you walk in, there's a marble bar with blush high top like booth seating. Its super cute now. Downstairs is more of a club vibe, it opens after 10 pm (don't quote me on the time). My boyfriend and I had already eaten so we just had some drinks and hookah. Both bartenders (upstairs and downstairs) were really cool. This is definitely giving cute ATL lounge vibes. If you are looking to eat, with any lounge in Atlanta, I would come before 10pm. After that, it will probably be hard to get seating. I will definitely be back because its so hard to find non touristy spots downtown. For the full vlog, visit my page @theboogiefoodie read more

I was coming to enjoy time spent with my friends and we had the worst food service. First of all, I am pescatarian and I asked for shrimp tacos and they brought out beef. I bit in it before I realized it. My friends waited 2 hours for food. We asked for a manager but I guest no one found the manager. Then a worker comes up 20 mins later and tells me I shouldn't have given the tacos to my friends when they had been waiting 2 hours. We are sitting here now with the situation not taken care of yet. I am not pleased at all. read more
