    At this point, Westside Motor Lounge is my go-to when I want a great atmosphere, strong cocktails, and some of the best wings in the city. I stop by every year for their holiday bar and seasonal cocktails, and it never disappoints. This visit, I tried the Clausemopolitan, which was really good and perfectly on theme for the holidays. Of course, I couldn't come here without ordering wings. I went with the Honey Jerk wings and the Lemon Pepper wings, and once again, they were phenomenal. Consistently crispy, well seasoned, and full of flavor. These are truly some of the best wings around, and they never miss. After food and drinks, I decided to pop into the Echo Room to dance off the cocktails and wings. That's when I learned there's now a $10 cover charge. I don't necessarily mind a cover, but it was new for me, so I opted to hang outside and dance a bit while waiting for my ride. Even outside, the vibe was still good, which honestly says a lot about the space. Overall, Westside Motor Lounge is a solid recommendation, especially if you're bringing friends or visitors from out of town. The indoor-outdoor setup is great, the cocktails are well done, and the food, especially the wings, is consistently excellent. This spot remains a staple for me.

    Came here for the holiday pop up diner! It was so much fun. Good food and drinks. Disco Santa was definitely my highlight and I will be back before the Christmas season is over. I had the shrimp po boy and it was good.

    We came here for the holiday bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was decorated nicely but was pretty empty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drinks were pretty good. But for how empty it was, it took forever for he to get our drinks and seemed like a lot of miscommunication behind the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Whoever was dj'ing though was amazing![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I love everything about WML except for the food. They have got to improve the food experience especially on days when there are big events. Each time I have ordered food I have been disappointed. It's usually cold and not well seasoned at all. This salad for example was drenched way too much in dressing and the chicken bites were cold and hard to chew. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the frozen margaritas and the vibes here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service at the bar is fine - nothing spectacular. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super casual space with no dress code.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Check it out!

    Met a friend here for a trivia night and had a good time. I've been trying to get out here for an event for some time now, but it just hasn't happened. I will definitely be back though. I arrived a bit late, but was still able to get in and sit down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was plenty of space, but not enough tables for the amount of people that were present.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That is a good problem to have though. They are cashless and the drinks are served in plastic cups. I got a pink Cadillac margarita and enjoyed it. They gave me the option to have tajin around the rim and of course I said yes to that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is so much space outside for events and activities.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't wait to come back to experience one of their outdoor events. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I liked the decor and setup.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It will be nice to come just to eat and have some drinks.

    First time here, and honestly not what I expected. I stopped by for the Pop Up Christmas Bar hoping for a few Christmas "Spirits" and photo ops. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is an indoor/outdoor venue, the outdoor area is very spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, I was immediately turned off seeing children running around, not my idea of a chill night out but I digress.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upon entering the grounds it's not really clear where to go, we just wondered around and finally found the indoor bar area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was quite a bit of Christmas lights on around the grounds and decor inside the bar area but nothing spectacular.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Christmas drink menu was not very appealing to me, a lot of the drinks were made with coconut or cranberry. It seems they have quite a few specialty events and guest DJs so maybe I'll try them again for something like that.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great community space for all types of events.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My first visit here was for the Atlanta Vegan Social weekly event & had a wonderful time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Westside Motor Lounge offers indoor-outdoor food, full service restaurant & bar amongst a vibing backdrop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outdoor courtyard has a wired stage, a beer garden, shuffleboard courts, fire-pits & areas for Food Trucks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    So I was here for an event and an event went off really well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's plenty of space for everybody to move outside, and there's even some seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's not a kind of spot where you can bring your own lawn chair necessarily, but they do have patio furniture sprawled throughout.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So for parking they do have parking areas. And they have a parking lot as well as a structure. But honestly I would suggest you doing a ride share. Get a lift or an Uber The event that I went to had multiple bars there so there's always a place to get a drink. And to catch some shade! I won't fault the establishment for this but the bars didn't very slow but in all fairness there was a lot of people there that they probably couldn't handle the capacity. So you may be standing in line for a good 15 to 20 minutes just for one drink. It's not like anybody was in a rush but that is something that's definitely noticeable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was set up very well and it was very clean. They made sure to make it presentable for us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have several bars and they had a place to order food. The food they had there on the inside was mostly fried foods like bar foods. You may get some chicken wings or a fish sandwich or something along those lines. So don't expect anything fancy but if you've been sitting in the sun and drinking you'll need something on your stomach. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The sun was the worst part about it, there was not really much shade. Which if you're trying to be outside and you want that kind of feeling, it's not a big deal. But in the Atlanta area where the heat can get to 95°, it was pretty aggressive and they didn't have that many places that had umbrellas or anything similar for that[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. That wasn't a deal breaker, but it was just the fact that they didn't have as much shaded areas to go to and there was a high number of people that really didn't do well. But to compensate, they did have free water drums there that you can fill cups with so they did take us into consideration with that so I thought that was really good. A lot of places may charge for water but they knew it was going to be hot so they gave free water. They have food and drink of course, and they also have hookah that they were selling there as well. So you could really just sit there and vibe all day. I thought it was really good, and they had people who had cigars there so they are smoke friendly shop if you're interested in that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall I'm going to try to go to more events here, I really enjoyed the environment. Maybe not it 97° outside lol but I thought it was still very well put together. It was peaceful, security didn't have any issues, nobody was fighting, had a great time[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

    Happy holidays. They have a special drink menu
    Seema Z.

    They have a pretty cute holiday pop up. A bar. That's tastefully decorated and outside is chic as usual with tables, and shuffleboard. As you can see the prices are steep. Atleast on the holiday menu. I was disappointed to see automatic gratuity added to drink orders from bar. Not sure if it's a new trend but if your prices are steep the owners can afford to pay their bar tenders a living wage and not 'enforce' gratuity. (20%) I will not be visiting again Their social media advertised silent disco which no one at the spot knew about. I had also called to confirm. Very disappointing

    Dog friendly

    Love love love this spot!! This is such a hidden gem in Westside. The large outdoor event space is perfect for the weekend. They have lots of different fun areas to hang out with friends. The cocktails are awesome and they have great food!! I was shocked a fun spot like this could have such great food. They have an amazing chef we got to meet who created amazingly crafted dishes. Our favorites were the Green Goddess Salad(amazing dressing!!) and the Sticky Garlic Wings!! You need to try this spot Also- dog friendly!!

    Drinks with the puppy, very dog friendly!!
    Ivana S.

    The people that work here are so nice! If i ask for a cocktail not on the menu, they will make it for me. This place is for friends and cocktails for sure! We always bring our dog because he loves the outdoor area with seating and games! Its always a vibe. I do wish they had more live music on the weekends. That would be my only suggestion. The food is good- not coming for the food though its just a small menu and not many shareable items.

    Cinco de mayo fun here at westside lounge, they had an event here, and it was a ton of fun. It was my first time in the venue, I didn't know how huge it was because I only saw it from the side of the road. Very spacious, has both indoor and outdoor sections to it. There was plenty of space for different events and occasions, and I was very shocked to see the entire space. The service was really good considering the number of people that were there, definitely long lines to get food but that was to be expected. Bartenders were friendly and responsive again for a busy day like Cinco de mayo it was extremely busy. I was a little disappointed in the food, not because of taste though, it was the lack of variety there were only two different vendors for food and they were obviously both selling tacos. With that being said the food was good, I just would have loved to see more food trucks/vendors.

    fantastic experience and one of my newest favorites. hit this joint with a good pal and really…read moreenjoyed it--even enjoyed a cocktail (custom cosmo) for the first time in 18 months. the tuna dish is out-of-this-world good, you simply must get it. the chicken and shrimp were also stellar, as was our server. some of the dishes came out late and they apologized for the delay. ambiance is nice, especially given the fact that not much has changed interior-wise from the Ri Ra days. my only note here is that all the dishes we ordered felt a bit heavy to me, and I would like to see some lighter fare offered on the menu. all in all though, I will go back because it's just a great place for dinner night.

    I was so excited to try this place. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was really great!…read moreIt's located right in ATL so expect parking to be sketchy (would it be ATL if it wasn't). The reason for 3 stars is that the food was mid (I would love to give 3.5 stars if I could). Some dishes stood out - the peanut noodles, the lobster with the same noodles, salmon crudo, and wings were pretty good too. Everything else was either not great or very mid - the platter, calamari, salmon was not crispy skin and was overcooked, fries, sardine bruschetta. We spent $400 with tip and I only liked or remembered about 20% of what we ordered. Drinks are beautiful and creative. It would be great for a drink and sexy vibes, but I would go somewhere else to eat. I forgot to take pictures (OOPS)

    I read they had live music and I loved the idea of having a drink and relaxing to music…read more Unfortunately this is a lobby bar and is extremely noisy. We found a nice table and ordered a glass of wine. We had every intent of staying and eating, but this atmosphere is not what we had in mind. I felt bad for the musician because nobody was paying attention. Our server disappeared so even if we wanted to stay for more drinks it was a hassle. The bartender finally tracked down our bill and we decided to go elsewhere.

Rather than just finding out, he went ahead and made it and brought it out with the group's drinks. When I saw how good it looked, I decided to order one too. 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've been wanting to try this bar out, and I finally had a chance to do so on Tuesday for jazz…read morenight! They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. 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. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!
