I finally made my way to The Consulate for a friend's birthday dinner after seeing so many glowing reviews online, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. This quarter's featured country is Singapore, so I was especially excited for the opportunity to try Singaporean inspired cuisine. One of the best surprises of the evening was that our group was seated in a private dining room for the birthday celebration. It made the evening feel even more intimate and special for my friend. Jordan truly made this experience exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable about both the food and cocktail menus and explained every item in such an approachable and thoughtful way. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does and takes pride in the experience he creates for guests. Because of his recommendation and description, I ended up trying an entrée I probably would have overlooked otherwise. I ordered the Queensland chicken from the Singapore menu and it was outstanding. The chicken was extremely tender and the sauce had the rich, slightly sweet flavor profile Jordan described, almost reminiscent of a bourbon style glaze. It was comforting, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I also decided to explore the mocktail menu and tried both the Elliot Carver and the Paris Carver Kiss. Both were refreshing, balanced, and crafted just as thoughtfully as a full cocktail. From the service to the atmosphere to the food itself, this was truly a 10 out of 10 experience. I can absolutely see myself returning again soon. read more

Dinner at The Consulate never disappoints ! What makes it so special is their Visa Menu--a rotating culinary passport that spotlights a different country every 3 months. Right now, it's Jamaica, and every dish has the perfect amount of spice & island vibes Then there's the Residents Menu--a curated collection of the best dishes they've featured in previous visa menus. Everything we had was exceptional, but the lamb tibs from Ethiopia were hands down my favorite. Combine amazing food, an upscale vibe & amazing service. Our waiter, Jordan, provides great recommendations, helped course the meal out & provided all around great service. And because we clearly can't get enough...their next destination is Vietnam launching May 1--and yes, we've already made our reservations. If you're looking for something that feels like a night out and a trip around the world, this is it. read more

I have visited the Consulate multiple times last year and the food and service was so good each time. This time, I met a few girlfriends for a Friday evening dinner. I highly suggest you secure a reservation for a party more than 2, especially on the weekends. The restaurant is small but every detail has been carefully selected to give you the feeling that you're visiting somewhere unique. My favorite dish is the Pharaohs Share, a lamb shank seasoned with cardamom, cinnamon, and cumin served on mashed potato. It was a delicious, comfort food and a large portion that I ended up taking home my leftovers. read more

My dinner club chose The Consulate as our locale for May & I was pleasantly surprised. Not only had I not heard of this restaurant, but it's smack in the heart of Midtown! Absolutely perfect location for a great dinner. We ordered everything on the new Singapore menu & everything was delicious. Red snapper, calamari.. barbecued chicken that had an amazing char.. coffee ribs.. everything we ate was wonderful. Our server Jay was phenomenal as well!! He was handling a few large parties and we never lacked for anything. I'll definitely be back again. read more

I really really enjoyed my experience at The Consulate. When I arrived, I parked in the garage and needed to walk down the stairs and around the stairwell to find the entrance. (That part was a bit confusing as there weren't any signs for guidance.) The place was decked out with momentos from around the world with a cute lounge for waiting. We made a reservation and was seated immediately. Our waiter gave us a great run down explaining the menu highlights food from a country for 90 days before changing to another country. We were ere exploring the Galapagos Island. I ordered the empanadas, jollof rice. And my friend had the snapper with broccolini and seasoned yellow rice. Everything was really yummy!! I definitely wanna go back and leave room to eat dessert. read more

A restaurant that has on my list for almost a year and finally I gave it a try recently. Unlike most restaurant I have been to, this one specializes in "not specializing dishes": every 90 days they pick a lucky customer to turn the globe and wherever it stops they make the food there for the next 90 days. When I went there the restaurant was serving Galapagos cuisine. They also have a usual menu. Unfortunately because I am allergic to many seafood I ended up having the Ethiopian lamb tibs, and my friend got the Hawaiian short ribs. Both dishes were good. My lamb had a distinct spiciness and wax tender. The side of rice was similar to what you find in China, instead of those in India or Middle East. However, the short rib was too small in serving size considering its cost ($53). It was almost the same size as my lamb which cost. Inside of this restaurant was fantastic, featuring lots of decorative showcasing different parts of the world. Would be great for dating. Besides, there was not much service, even though they charge a mandatory 18% service fee... read more

My bf and I try to come at once a quarter to try the new menus. Right now they have Jamaican through 4/1 (1 month longer than usual) which our waitress said is partially due to how popular the menu is. I know she's supposed to hype but the place was PACKED on a WEDNESDAY and this was perhaps the best experience I've had in all my years eating here. The coconut milk marinated rice and peas, jerk chicken, gift of the moons pork belly, escovitch, and island Shepard skillet were all wonderfully seasoned and packed full of flavor. The service was fast and attentive, the decor is always a hoot to observe, and I'll be back before 4/1 to try the curry goat and oxtail soup. read more

Came here for the second time for girls night. The last time we went for the Galapagos menu, the food and the drinks were amazing!! We were so excited to come back! We were told about spin the globe night but we were given the wrong date and no real details so we missed it. Next step has been Jamaica. I'm Jamaican so I was a little weary but I was interested to see how they would create these dishes. Starting with the appetizers, we ordered wontons, the shrimp and bell pepper dish, and mushroom noodles with jerk chicken. We also ordered a round of drinks. The wontons were extremely dry on the inside, the only thing saving them was the sauce. I tasted no shrimp or pork it actually had no taste whatsoever. The noodles were udon noodles were super thick and it was a heavy dish because they gave you a great portion of it. I didn't taste any chicken and neither did my friend , but my other friend said she did. Everyone's drinks were OK nothing that I would rave about and actually one of my friends asked for a drink that was part of the last menu that they couldn't make in house because they have the ingredients they have on hand are for the menu theme I guess. For dinner I ordered the Bulgogi and we all ordered another round of drinks. This time two of my friends got the espresso martini which later ended up coming to about $24. A regular espresso martini, no additions! One friend liked hers, the other didn't but there were no refunds on drinks. I had wine that I paid standard price for at a nicer restaurant (which is honestly too much) at $18 a glass. The Bulgogi was not good. Both my friend and I got it and we said the meat was soft and crumbly almost like mystery meat and it tasted like nothing else but the goalie you couldn't even taste any flavor in the noodles. We lowkey were mad we spent $40 on that dish. Last was dessert. I ordered the cheesecake and my other friend got the sherbet. She loves a sherbet because she is vegan and I love cheesecake. It's an interesting cheesecake because it has an Oreo crust, pistachio filling, and I believe passionfruit jelly drizzle. The jelly made it quite tart and very interesting tasting. I was on the fence about it, one friend hated it and one friend loved it. Overall we said that we probably would not be back unless there was something on the menu that really made us excited. One friend has been three times and she said twice it disappointed her so she will no longer be going back. read more

I came to the Consulate with a work group which was the perfect occasion! A reservation is a must here and its definitely not the easiest to get but let me tell you its worth it! We had a Wednesday reservation for 7PM and the Consulate was extremely accommodating with our changing party size which we greatly appreciated. Once seated, the restaurant has a great vibe. Super intimate and easy to talk to the people you are seated with. When ordering, we opted to order a lot from the "visa" menu since these dishes aren't around forever! I got a great date based whiskey cocktail and we got a bunch of great appetizers. A mezze board of sorts with olives, chicken skewers and duck confit and it was all delcious! For my main entree, I opted for the lamb shank from the visa menu and wow the portion was hefty! The lamb was super tender and the mashed potatoes that came with it was a great combo. No meal is complete without dessert so of course we got one of each. The baklava was delicious, the cake was super moist and the sorbet was great. The flan was also good but not our favorite of our choices. Overall, this was a stunning meal and the Consulate would be a great backdrop for any event! read more

Love, love, love Consulate! The vibe there is eclectic and international. They have a great seating area as an alternative to the bar. The food is always delicious. Whether you choose from their quarterly menu or their standard menu. My experience with service has been mixed. There are times when it's good, my most recent time I waitress gave certain people more attention and service than me, like pack their to-go food and constant check-ins. Even though, I definitely spent more (4 drinks, 2 appetizers, 2 entrees, desert, cordials and coffee). Despite my most recent experience, I will come back, that was 1:4 times. read more

The Consulate is such a cool spot, perfect for a date night! The whole concept of a rotating Visa menu featuring different countries is super fun, and this time, it was inspired by Indonesia. We tried the Beef Rendang, which was tender, flavorful, and just really well done. The Chicken Satay was surprisingly light and airy, and the peanut sauce was the perfect complement. Everything we had was delicious! Our server, Deja, was awesome--super friendly and attentive, making sure we had a great experience. Since we were celebrating a few milestones, they even brought out a complimentary champagne toast, which was such a nice touch. Overall, we had an amazing night. Great vibes, great food, and great service--definitely a spot worth checking out!

Came here for my birthday dinner a couple weeks ago and am obsessed! We came in a on Thursday and made a reservation. It wasn't too crowded when we got there, but it filled up! They validate parking in the parking deck next to the restaurant. Our waitress was great and gave great suggestions. I love that they switch their menu every 3 months for a new country. It was Egypt when we went. Everything was amazing! We ordered 3 things from the rotating menu, and 2 things from the year round menu. From the Egypt menu, we got the hummus, falafel and a lamb hand pie. From the year round menu, we got the egg rolls and the dumplings. You must get the egg rolls! Everything was delicious and I'd for sure come back to try their next menu! Such a good spot. read more

Beautiful historic interior with elegant furniture, Lounge area, and private president's room. Room. We sat in a beautiful Booth for a birthday dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance and service. The menu is special, honoring a different cuisine and country every 90 days, very impressive. It was the Galapagos Islands while I was there. The seafood paella was delicious. The ceviche was okay, lacking flavor. The server was entertaining and gave us a free dessert for birthday, which was really special! read more

Always seems like I can't score a reservation but alas I did and we went as a party of 4. Started at the bar - which has great bartenders and selection of spirits will not disappoint, plus tons of non-alcoholic offerings. The vibe is chill, a bit eclectic, a bit sexy, with a whole lot of nostalgia thrown in. The current journey is Jamaica. We started with the cauliflower - it was so tasty that we debated getting another one - it is the ENTIRE head of cauliflower too - with a scotch bonnet sauce (not that spicy, yet very flavorful). We moved onto sharing pork belly (I didn't try it), jerk chicken and the snapper, plus some other non-Jamaica offerings. After dinner we headed to the vibey-comfy sofa-lounge space to finish some drinks and free up our table. This is RIGHT across from the Marta station on 10th and there is also a parking garage (3 hr validated parking, just remember your ticket) around the corner of 10th and w Peachtree. read more

Food, ambience, and service is spot on! I love the concept of changing up the menu every 90 days, and having spent some time in Nepal before, I was extra excited to try their Tibet menu. The momos took me back to Nepal - the flavor and the slight kick brought back so many wonderful memories, and the momo skin is of high quality. Mt. Kalish Cloud was truly a unique dish! I loved the presentation and the flavors were wonderful. The Kaukau Shrimp was good, but not quite something I could eat a lot of - the sweet potato mash became a bit much for me but was delicious in small quantities. Everything was so good that I was literally scraping each plate! Our server, Deja, was probably one of the best servers I've ever experienced! She explained the menu well, gave great recommendations, and was actively paying attention to us. There were things that she did (ex. bring more hot water, and bring a to-go container) that we didn't even have to ask her for - she just knew. That's top notch service right there! The ambience is super classy and eclectic. I love how this place is decorated - there's wall art, books, and knick knacks from all over, spanning different time periods. Parking in the garage is easy and they validate. read more

Date of Visit: May 14, 2025 Occasion: My husband's 37th birthday Reservation Time: 7:30 PM The Consulate Atlanta has earned praise for its globally inspired cuisine--and rightly so. The food was phenomenal. Every dish was vibrant, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our server, Deja, was warm, professional, and one of the few highlights of the evening. Unfortunately, the front-of-house experience did not reflect the same level of excellence. We arrived on time for our reservation, only to be told our table wasn't ready. The restaurant advertises a two-hour seating limit, yet we waited nearly 30 minutes with no updates. Meanwhile, we observed others sitting and given menus. A couple sat at a table near the bar and given menus, though we were told those seats were for the bar. The inconsistency was glaring. When we were finally seated, it was at a small corner table with no acknowledgment of the birthday we had clearly noted in our reservation. It felt like an afterthought--especially for a special occasion. We addressed our concerns with the owner, who remained polite but surprisingly introduced race as a possible factor--something we never suggested. Our feedback focused on the delay, inconsistent policies, and lack of communication. When I clarified our wait was 30 minutes (not 15), the shift in tone was evident. To clarify: My husband never received the complimentary dessert that was later implied. In fact, I had to ask about a note on the check reading "Do Not Make" and still charged for it--which I kept. It seems the gesture was offered, but never followed through on, much like much of the service that evening. The owner stated that the server offered 3x, which was a blatant lie. Had I planned additional birthday activities, we would have been late and likely out money due to the restaurant's poor time management. I've dined at many fine restaurants across the country. Feedback is a gift--when met with accountability. I hope this review is received in that spirit. The owner commented on OpenTable: "Its always your own folks. ...so embarrassing" You're right--it is embarrassing. It's unfortunate to see a restaurant owner respond with defensiveness rather than awareness and maturity. Instead of accepting constructive feedback with grace, you chose to belittle and dismiss it. That's not leadership, and it's certainly not professionalism. If this is the standard being set at the top, it's no surprise the guest experience reflects it. Reputations are built not just on good food, but on how criticism is received and addressed. Edit: Your ignorance is showing. We were polite to your staff and you, even if you chose to be unrealistic and unprofessional. No one made a fuss, but as I've witnessed on previous 1-star reviews, you act the same. You cannot accept constructive criticism and choose to diminish, dispute, and dismiss feedback instead of being accountable and doing better in the future. I left a glowing review and shared ONE thing that made the night sour. You couldn't even focus on the one thing, but, so focused on trying to discredit the experience. I'm done responding to an owner that is clearly set on putting the blame on the patron instead of taking accountability and showing awareness for the inconsistencies. Edit: No one cares where you're from or how old you are. No one is being rude or unreasonable except for you. This is simply about the BEGINNING of the experience on THIS occasion at YOUR restaurant that we've been to SEVERAL times. Your lack of professionalism is showing and you're not understanding the ISSUE. Instead of taking personal attacks towards me, you should focus on the entire experience for people from beginning to end. Be open to understanding that everyone is NOT going to like your restaurant and experience. Just take accountability and keep it moving, it'll save a lot of headache and back and forth. Edit: As seen, the owner would rather go back and forth instead of simply acknowledging and moving forward. This is unprofessional and luckily for me, I have screenshots of everything that has been said to me so I can report it properly to Yelp for their review. read more

First time here and will definitely go back. The vibe was really moody, in great way. Dark, rich colors and plush seating thoughout. While one side of the place was bathed in light from the large floor to ceiling windows and the other was dim and moody. Love the idea of a rotating menu that highlights cultural cuisines (the Visa menu) and a menu of mainstays (the Resident menu). We arrived on the last day of the Indonesian dishes. Our server Jordan was fantastic. Really engaging and walked us through everything. He made sure we had all we needed throughout our time. We ordered the Munster Mini's (Resident), the Sindhu Market Satay Skewers (Visa), the Breakfast in Bali (Visa) and drinks were the Moroccan Sunset (Resident) and the Bali Breeze (Visa). The food was so delicious. The Minis definitely paired well with the Worchester truffle aioli. The Skewers were well seasoned and the Breakfast was so flavorful. The Sunset was on the sweeter side and the Breeze was strong. We got a free Turkish Coffee Cheesecake (Resident) for my birthday and it was so rich and creamy. We had an amazing visit. read more

My husband and I stopped by The Consulate last Friday around 6:45. They were packed and we were a bit pressed for time because we had tickets to a show at 8. In comes Cindy, who saved the day! Cindy made excellent recommendations and got us our drinks and food in record time. We had the wontons with curry sauce, pepper shrimp, and lamb tibs. The food was a 10/10. We recently moved from DC and everyone knows that the best place to get Ethiopian food outside of Ethiopia is DC. But the Consulate gave our DC spot a run for its money on the lamb tibs. (We still love you, Ethiopic -- we'll never forsake you.) They were savory and tender, with some added crunch and spice from the herbs. I could eat three plates of this dish. The shrimp were my second favorite dish of the night. Also very spicy (VERY spicy), but delicious. When we go back, we probably will need to get two orders. I don't know if sharing one order of that deliciousness makes for a happy home. My husband loved the wontons. I wanted the sauce to be a little sweeter, but that didn't stop me from spooning it into my mouth soooooo... For cocktails, we had an old fashioned with a banana liqueur and a drink with a port ice cube. Hubs said it is the best old fashioned he's had in Atlanta. My drink was excellent, as well. I can't remember what it was called, but it inspired me to make my own port ice cubes. Cindy, thank you for a great meal! We will see you soon! (Save some pepper shrimp for us!!) read more

Restaurant rating is sometimes a hard thing to balance. This place has a cool ambiance and service is good. The menu is original as the idea behind the choices you have. To compare the food with other places is difficult due to the unique ingredients and names, either real or made up of the dishes. So I will rate by my choices and food experience only and I have to say that what I tried was a 3 average. However you can consider a 4 if you're just looking for a cool Place to go. It's interesting and worth to try if you are in the Atlanta area. read more

Awesome spot for a date night. This is really more of a 4.5 overall experience. Definite 5 stars for the uniqueness of the concept, ambiance, and service. The food, while good, was nothing totally out of this world delicious especially for the price. Parking is validated in the nearby garage. The parking instructions on their website are very detailed which we really appreciated because we don't come down to this part of town very often and parking is always such a pain everywhere you go. We had made a reservation (a few weeks prior) for 7:30 on a Saturday night. The server Jordan was fantastic. He explained the menu, provided suggestions, and was attentive without being annoying. They say that the menu changes every three months but already they have been on Jamaica for at least a month and Singapore is coming only in April. For starters we had the Havana Egg Roll off of the regular menu. The flavors were great but my bf felt it had a little too much cheese. For entree I had the Turkish Sili Levrek which is also a signature dish that stays on the menu. It was a very thick piece of Chilean sea bass that was pan seared. As a result the top and the bottom of the fish were well seasoned and had a great texture from the pistachio nuts, but the middle part of the fish lacked flavor. The couscous had a little too much salt but I can see that as an overcompensation for the unseasoned middle fish, so as long as everything is eaten together it's more balanced. My bf destroyed the Oxtail and rice. It's not my jam but I did try some of the meat and the dumping, both very tender and flavorful. The portion sizes were also just enough to be full but not to take leftovers. For dessert we couldn't come to a consensus so I had the Turkish coffee cheesecake and my bf had the rum cake. Jordan was so amazing that he offered to comp one since we said we don't normally order two desserts. I liked the flavors of the cheesecake but the crust to filling ratio was a bit off, would have preferred more of the latter or less of the former, as it was hard to cut through. For cocktails I had the Moroccan Sunset which is one of their highlighted drinks. The fact that it is served over a cube of frozen port is very cool. What other drink can you order where it gets stronger as it melts? My bf had the Bhom Bhom off the Jamaican menu and it was a little too boozy tasting for me, but inventive nevertheless. Finally, kind of weird to point out, but the restrooms were also pleasant even offering scented hand lotion. Overall we had a lovely experience at The Consulate and will recommend to others especially who are tired of the same old. read more

What a yummy experience! Beautiful interior, comfy seating, and attentive waitstaff. I had one evening in Atlanta before a conference so made a resy for one at The Consulate. I ordered the charcuterie as an appetizer, which has three really delicious cheeses. I really enjoyed the cheese made with port wine as well as the apricot cheese. I ordered the veal schnitzel as an entree which came with a salad. If you're a non-meat eater please stop reading because that veal was DELICIOUS! I don't eat veal very often but found it was not overwhelming in this dish. They packed up what was left of my charcuterie, which I ate in the middle of the night in my hotel room! read more

Easily one of the best dining experiences I've had in Atlanta. Our server, Jordan, was literally the nicest most genuine person who really strove to take care of us in every way. He truly had the best of intentions helping us to navigate the menu, as it was my first time. I had a very memorable meal with my partner, and we both appreciated the delicious food and the cultural menu. The highlights were definitely the Chilean Seabass, ube maitake dip w/ taro chips, and the beef rendang (featured in their rotating Indonesian menu). I honestly could not be happier with the dining experience and definitely highly recommend this restaurant. read more

The consulate is a restaurant with a permanent menu and a rotating menu that cycles every quarter. This time a round the menu featured foods from papa New Guinea and it was a very interesting experience ! The food was too heavy for myself and party but in any other day I'm sure I would have enjoyed it. That's the only reason they got a three.

The Consulate is easily the sexiest dining experience in Midtown Atlanta. Upon entering, you genuinely feel like you're in a 90s spy thriller about to feast nondescriptly, yet fully in your own personal spotlight While the concept has undoubtedly been explained multiple times on this platform - let me elaborate for those who read new reviews. Every 90 days - someone spins the globe and the restaurant transforms and adopts a new cuisine wholeheartedly. I was there for Paraguay and let me tell you it was BREATHTAKING. The Sopa Paraguaya quite literally changed my tastebuds and made me appreciate the effort that goes into a cornmeal dish. The Carne Asada induced a pants dropping symphony of pleasure from our table. Each dish was eloquently explained by our amazing waiter as well. I will make it a habit to come back every 90 days. And I recommend you do too. read more

Unique and cool restaurant. Decor is eclectic and nostalgiac with multiple rooms/themes including a lounging living room, two dining areas and a bar / waiting area. The Tibet region was featured as the travelling component of the menu and even though I'm picky we decided to come here and explore. We had to wait given our attempt at a last minute reservation but nevertheless happily accommodated. Our server was Deja who was great and very enthusiastic about the food. Although we were two, when visiting a city, my business partner and I go overboard on ordering numerous dishes so as to sample and taste many different items. We had the vegetarian dumplings, Munster Mini fried breaded potato balls representing Ireland, Sauteed string beans from China and Jollof Rice with Grilled Chicken. Each were good to very good although we did not care for the Jollof Rice. We also had the Kalibi Short Rib (each of us loves short ribs) which were very good and the Mount Everest Sherpa Stew which was more soup (with large chunks of beef) than a typical saucy stew - so personally it was good but not what I preferred. Our server insisted that we try the pistachio cake which was delicious. Highly recommend that you try this place at least once. Very unique and worth a visit. read more
