Reviews for The Colonnade in Atlanta, GA
A great atmosphere for dinner. Feels like personal service, very attentive staff. Melvin took great care of us, and made sure... we had everything we needed. Homemade biscuits and muffins were wonderful! Generous portions of food, and great flavor. Veryfast service. Thank you for a fantastic meal. Read more
The food was fantastic. But ? when I walked in the door the first person I spoke to the male hostess. Was rude to me. Almost as... though he didn?t want me there waiting for my takeout. He looked down on me like I was dirt. The woman that took my order wasgreat . I wouldn?t have had to sit and wait if they would?ve answer the phone. Then the bartender was kinda rude too. Just shortwith me, even after I tipped her. And all I ordered was a beer. I believe that if you work in an environment like that youshould be friendly to everyone. Not just a select few. It?s a shame, because the food was wonderful. But no body deserves to betreated like that. So five stars on the food. And two stars on the staff. And that?s only because two people were decent the onethat took my order, and the lady from the kitchen that brought it out to me. Read more
I've gone to the Colonnade two consecutive weeks and food was really good. The first time I had the half chicken with... collards/mac the second I had the 4 piece fried chicken with sweet potato souffle and collards. Overall the food is reallygood, has flavor, comes out hot and you can tell it'd definitely cooked to order. The sweet tea is southern sweet and I loveit! Service is good, I do believe that they need more servers but they provide good service and keep your glass full. Therestaurant was a blast from the past. While many don't appreciate the old (maintained) charm, I do it makes you feel like you'retaking a step back in time. I will be back! Read more
Experienced the banquet hall with a set menu (see pictures). Service was wonderful but a little slow. Meal was home cooking.... Nothing fancy but nice. Read more
Great food and fast service. We dined very late and did not feel too rushed. Dined here again last Saturday evening - Derby... Day. We had an enjoyable table wait in the bar with great drinks, Customer Service, and fellow drinkers. Whata race to observe! Read more
Haven't been to The Colonade? You've got to add it to your dining list. It's Atlanta's second oldest restaurant and a local... landmark. Fried chicken is their signature dish and it is fantastic. We started with a Shrimp Cocktail, then delicious friedchicken and a plethora of southern sides. I had the Pear Salad and Baby Limas and my wife had Pickled Beets and a salad. Thefood is good ole southern comfort food. They get busy so be prepared to wait. They have a lounge where you can enjoy a drinkwhile you wait. There's lots of history here including being featured in movies you would have seen. Stop in and enjoy a greatmeal! Read more
My take out experience was subpar overall, I wouldn?t recommend. The turkey was not dry, but extremely flavorless and the sides... were MINI versions of what they should be. I needed every condiment and additional sauce to add some type of flavor to the dish,but it was very bland ; $23 for a turkey platter with (2) mini sides, left me unimpressed. Mac and cheese serving 50% notfilled. Pros: Their rolls and mini mac and cheese serving were amazing! Read more
