Food was all amazing and our server was great. His name was David - he said he was two weeks in but you never would have known. He was very kind, knowledgeable about the menu and checked on us repeatedly.

I haven’t dined at a Trader Vic’s in ages. It was better than I remembered. The Mai Tai took me back to a beachside in Hawaii. The pork chop and the salmon were cooked to perfection. Our waiter was pleasant. We were a bit chilly sitting by the window, but that didn’t hamper our dinner. We didn’t get dessert as we needed to get to a concert, but next time we are in Atlanta, it’s a good chance we will dine here again.

Amazing restaurant. I would only suggest turning down the music just a little. Customers would be much more happy to have dialogue with friends and family without having to yell. Keep up the amazing work! Will be back soon!
