Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Virginia Highland

It was amazing! Our party of 9 was promptly seated upstairs away from everyone else which was nice for a large party. Food was delicious! Definitely want a reservation because the place was packed!

I don’t recall the last time I had such great service at a restaurant. Food was excellent. We were there celebrating a birthday, and the staff helped make the occasion that much more special. The patio was warm even during cold weather. And there’s a super cute little bar outside on the patio. We’ll be back to check that out!

Sushi and service was exceptional as usual. Umi does not disappoint!! We had a few dietary issues and everything was accommodated. We did the omakase and our final dish of lobster and scallop in an uni cream sauce was flat out amazing. We finished with dessert and had the crepe cake. Perfection! Loved our very kind server (I wish I could remember his name) but he went out of his way for us and it did not go unnoticed. Thank you!!

My wife and I wanted to try this place as she’s a big fan of Chopped. We got there early, sat at the bar and had a drink. Lovely ambience, well weathered bar top and friendly bartenders. Enjoyed it! Next we were seated by the windows looking out on the beautifully lit Peachtree St in the mostly empty, yet gorgeously appointed dining room. It was early -6:30 pm- on a Thursday which maybe explains the empty room. The servers were incredibly helpful, nice and knowledgeable. We both ordered steaks preceded by the shrimp and calamari appetizer and a shared wedge salad. The friendly (and large) doorman told us the calamari appetizer was to die for and he was right! A lovely bottle of Cabernet accompanied the Filet and Strip which were both cooked absolutely perfectly with a beautiful seared crust on the outside and medium rare inside. All the while, the room started to slowly fill up. I had read in reviews that the wait staff was exceptional-it truly was. We shall return with friends and family!

Great service and wonderful array of food. Our server was great and made wonderful recommendations.
