Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014T. Fable Jeon's revivalist cocktails are imaginative and chock-full of homemade ingredients like roasted Georgia pecan tincture and house star anise and grapefruit soda. Read more
AJCMay 13, 2015Go with the Bebida De Los Muertos; Olmeca Altos Tequila, Cocchi Americano, Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao, Lemon, Red Pepper, and Hopped-Grapefruit Bitters. It's spicy. It's bitter. It's perfect.
- Creative Loafing AtlantaApril 25, 2013Buttermilk-soaked, deep-fried gulf oysters covered in a crust of creole-seasoned cornmeal served with — wait for it — a monster slice of bacon make the oyster roll one of CL's 100 Best Dishes. Read more
Tricia BeanFebruary 1, 2017We had the grit tots, ahi tuna poke and Brussels sprouts. Grit tots stood out. Also had amazing cocktails! I had the Bebida de los muertos.- Creative Loafing AtlantaMay 1, 2015The chicken cordon BLY sandwich is a mind-boggling example of decadence piled on top of decadence that somehow manages to stay on the right side of over-the-top.

Dan GeigerMarch 18, 2013Amazing friendly staff, a relaxed vibe and the best cocktails I've had so far in 2013. Do not skip this place. Also, use of the word "tippling" ups the awesomeness factor by a lot.
Carole LoomisJanuary 12, 2014Great cocktails, scallops, burger. If sitting at the bar just be aware that cocktails trump everything, food and non alc beverages. Don't expect attentive service.
Miya GilliardJanuary 6, 2016The scallop roll (I'm guessing oysters are seasonal) was amazing! Perfectly cooked. If you like ginger, you'll love the house brewed ginger beer.
Shere' KirkwoodOctober 21, 2015The oyster roll and unique side salad was amazing. I tried to read but was too busy enjoying my meal. The Ponyboy was delightfully tasty
Careful, vegetarians! A lot of their veggies are cooked with meat. But the cocktails are EXCELLENT and the vegetarian selections they DO have (such as the fried okra) are very yummy.
Jackie SmithMarch 4, 2016Loved the wiskey and bourbon of course, but the Brussel Sprouts and the dipping sauce was the bomb diggity!
ChristopherSeptember 26, 2016The burger is truly excellent. One of the best I've had, in any city in the world.- Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014As Decatur's newest see-and-be-seen hot spot, expect a short wait between 7:30 and 8 p.m. Read more
Charlsie 🍡April 28, 2013For brunch, get 2 eggs, chicken fingers, hash browns, and a biscuit. Indulge in a Jackie O!
Tatiana HanDecember 9, 2012Brunch was really yummy! Shrimp & grits and their hash browns and biscuits were awesome! Wouldn't recommend their desserts though.- DO THE COCKTAIL TASTING! You get a glass of their house punch + 2 cocktails of your choice for only $25. You won't be sorry!
Jade HApril 12, 2016The Brussel sprouts and beets are phenomenal! Drinks are da bomb! You have to eat here!
Billy CoxJuly 7, 2013Yummy brunch. Cheese grits have a nice spicy hint. Coffee is served French press style, nice touch.
Try the Proof Flights - Maple, Pecan, and Original Old Fashioned cocktails. Delicious! (via @Foodspotting)
Shea JoynerJune 22, 2012Everything is awesome! I particularly like the Fried Chicken, mac and cheese and the fries. A fat kids paradise!
$5 whiskey drinks on Wednesdays! Also, phenomenal drink program. Julian is one of the best bartenders in town.
