Celebrated our friends birthday and Johnathan and his partner took care of us! Johnathan is a Select staple and made our birthday girl feel special. Food was great! The restaurant has begun decorating for Christmas but it’s not complete. Love the ambiance. DJ was fun! Love seeing the servers have fun and dance. Just a fun friendly vibe!

This was my last day coming to Atlanta and I’m so glad I chose this restaurant to end the night with I ordered the farm house burger. It was so good from a rate from 1-15 I would say it’s a 11. I say that because I put fried hard egg on it. Now I have to come back and try again and more . The service was really good. I will comeback.

Very cool and great experience for a first timer! The atmosphere was great and very relaxing but energetic! We went on a Thursday night and the place was very packed in a good way! There was a live saxophone musician and a singer. The food was really good and the table side carbonara was fantastic!
