We had a great time and Steve (Stephen) was an exceptional knowledgeable server. Live music 🎶 Great oysters and great drinks. The only thing the general manager sat in the front booth conducting business and talking to employees while using her laptop. Not a good look and annoying we didn't want to hear her on her cell or see ppl congregating around her in a booth near us. If she wanted to observe the business find a neutral area away from patrons we want to relax and enjoy our meal I will be back but will ask to be sitted in a different area

I love the vibe and ambiance. Also the waiter was very attentive. The food was ok I got the rack of lamb. I like the chargrilled flavor but the sliced potatoes and peas as a side was not a good combination and I could taste the torch and the peas was mushy. The lobster appetizers was good but a little spicy.

There is a lot of street parking available nearby. You could also choose to park in the performance arts center parking lot for a fee. I made a reservation beforehand. The restaurant is busy on Saturday evening. But we were seated right away. Service was great and the ambiance was nice! The bar area is were all of the pretty flower decorations are. Dragonbird: drink was really tasty, I could taste the dragonfruit but not the alcohol. However, it’s d definitely strong because I could feel a slight buzz. Crispy duck confit: the figs, duck and crispy rice paired with the sauce had such a nice balance. Full of flavor and texture. Spanish octopus: flavor wise it was okay but the octopus was very hard to cut and super chewy to eat. Peruvian ceviche: loved it! Gave a nice more acidic and sour flavor compared to the other items we ordered. Seafood pasta: plenty of seafood, pasta wasn’t too heavy and had a nice hint of spiciness to it. Braised short rib: the meat is so tender and very flavored. Miso sea bass: sea bass melted in your mouth and the rice was a bit spicy. Mixed well together. Lasagna: very heavy and felt like there wasn’t any short rib. Overall great experience. Would recommend

I made a reservation for a table on ladies night. I ended up sitting at the bar which was crowded and fun. There was live entertainment and she was great! It was a mixed but mature crowd. No seating was available. They cancelled my reservation because no table opened up but I was fine at the bar. I started a tab with Lauren I think that’s her name she looked to be of Asian decent and very sweet who I initially gave my card to. She made me a great margarita with grand marnier. I ordered the wedge salad with lobster and omitted the blue cheese for balsamic vinaigrette. It was great but $34 is a little pricey for one iceberg lettuce and a bit of lobster. She then suggested the sticky toffee for dessert. Omg it was mouth watering!!!!!! I will go just for that. Now here is where things started to go south. I befriended lady sitting next to me and offered to buy both of our next drinks which would make a total of 3 on my tab. Some other bartender makes our drink this time she had a bun in her hair. It was very light in color (grand marnier turns it brown at the base) compared to our first rounds which let us know the grand marnier was omitted. We tasted our drinks and there want even a hint of it. We informed the bartender with the bun that it was not added and she lied to us with an attitude insisting that it was premixed. We told her we didn’t taste and and she literally just turned her backs to us without saying a word. I didn’t want to play the race card but that’s what it kind of seemed like to us. Then another bartender with her hair straight came over and gave us both a shot of grand marnier. We thanked her graciously. When it was time for the check Lauren brought out my check of $109 but didn’t bring my card so then the other bartender with the straight hair ran it and it was $20 more than before. Now mind you I had already tipped outside of my check. So when I asked about it the bartender with the straight hair told me that I had a tab open before I sat at the

Absolutely perfect food and service. Totally worth the 20% tip charge. Absolutely was perfectly cooked, tasted amazing and paired well with drinks. My father had the best Manhattan of his life. The wine was excellent. Really appreciated the man who checked every dish that went out for quality and added finishing touches. Had the steak, salmon, sea bass and duck. Also really enjoyed the salads and ceviche.

Came here recently for brunch. Jonathan gave us great service. Sat outside, because the weather was great. I had the French toast entree, but we started with the jumbo cinnamon roll. When I tell you it was HUGE...it was so big. Three of us ate off of it, and we all still took some home. The french toast was challah bread, and it had a slight crunch. It was also excellent. Jonathan had some margaritas made that were good and strong as well. The place got really busy after 1pm, so make a reservation, and come before then if you want a weekend brunch. I'd highly recommend them too.

My auntie wanted to try the food in this restaurant so we came but it wasn’t the best. We tried couples dishes, even the waitress suggested the seabass and since I’m a huge fan of it, I ordered it right away but it had a weird aftertaste. I’m also a big octopus eater but it was briny, however it was perfectly cooked. We liked the salmon tartare and arancini. I had big expectations on the tres leches de tiramisú but I ended up liking the donut chocolate better. Besides the food, the place has great atmosphere and great service. I’m sure they are plenty other dishes in this restaurant that are better therefore I am willing to come back and try the other dishes

LOVE THIS BAR ! Second time going and for a good reason. I remember the drinks being cute and this place having great small plates. My memory didn't serve it justice tbh! This time was amazing, our bartender .. Rachel I think.. blonde sweet, young twenties really went above and beyond with making a custom drink with cucumber that was to diiie for! They need to add whatever magic she made into their menu. Also the duck confetti mushroom plate was soooo good I may come back just for that alone, so please don't take it off the menu. It's a killer dish and I need that every time I come. 1000 🌟

Absolutely great and unique twist to the traditional old fashion. The cucumber salad is totally different than what you would expect and very good! And the chicken dish “chef’s kiss”. The ambiance is upscale and there is a ton to do in and around the area. The only downfall is that plugging in the address to google maps is off by about 100 yards. So just call if you get lost.

Beautiful Easter brunch at The Select in Sandy Springs. I made a late reservation Jacquline the Host gave me a courtesy call, they were able to put us for a indoor table for three. The service is top notch! When we got there Daniel our server greeted us and took down our drink order suggested some amazing choices for drinks. My mom got the dragon bird and I got the absolutely delicious, blueberry espresso martini, and my boyfriend got the Earl Grey bourbon cocktail with rosemary lemon! We shared the crab toast, French toast, three eggs Gruyère omelette, and added the lobster, and last the delicious Patagonia salmon. I highly recommend going to this restaurant and giving this place a try their menu does change depending on the season and they have a brunch lunch menu and a dinner menu. There is outdoor and indoor seating. I do recommend on weekends book a table around 11 AM in advance. Very easy just use the OpenTable app. There’s plenty of parking as well.

My very first experience here was amazing. I had a going away dinner and that was a party of 5, six including my infant. I will say this is NOT a kid friendly, or family place. But I was totally okay with that because I appreciated how accommodating each waiter tried to be. I love that it’s an adult space, beautifully decorated, exquisite menu and drinks. We had a great experience because every waiter was kind, polite, and helpful. Our waiter Jessie was amazing! It’s truly a girls night out, a date night , or a night out with friends. Feel good. Look good. Eat good. Going back for a date night, without the baby lol

The food here is mostly overall good. However, I’ve had way better steak and eggs than what they served me. Their French toast was pretty good; except for the slices of mint they added on top. Looks good but taste not so good. The salmon was okay. A little disappointed at their brunch menu. I had previously visited for their dinner menu and liked it. (2x for dinner menu) Also, if you don’t have a reservation they send you to the bar high tops; which is fine, but the server got forever to get to us!

Went to celebrate work anniversary with coworkers . We had The most wonderful experience . The environment, staff, food and drinks were top tier wonderful. Our waitress was very kind and helpful. We were enjoying ourselves so much that we sent her away twice before we ordered not once did she appear annoyed . We asked the hostess to take photos for us at the end of the night she was so sweet and took so May for us to choose from and even helped us clear the table before the photos were taken . Just overall great vibes . Can’t wait to return and experience brunch .

My experience started off great! The drinks were great, food was great and ambience was perfect. I was having a conversation with my friend & didn’t notice when they cleared the plates off the table. I simply asked our bartender if she accidentally threw my food out, i understand mistakes happen & she might not of known that I wanted the rest to go. I was not trying to make a big deal about it, because as a server I get it, but the response I received I was appalled by she told me to “calm down, I’ll get you a new one to go it’s not that big of a deal.” Which I wasn’t trying to make it a big deal, it was a simple question, I just wanted to know what happened to my food. I quickly left when I received my food because I felt stares from other staff members that she went & told about whatever happened, idk maybe they’re not used to black people…. But it got very weird in the end.

Went here last night on a date with my husband. He got the lamb chops and I got the sea bass sorry I’m quickly writing this so it won’t be as detailed. For drinks he got the lychee martini and I had the obsession. Food needed a little pick me up , as in seasoning but the presentation and the customer service was good. 😌 I would go again on a girls night out bc my husband was not impressed with the food lol . I must say that obsession was very delicious and I wish I would’ve caught a pic but I was trying to be all in tuned with my date 😉. Oh!! Forgot about the appetizers so we had sides as appetizers we got the truffle fries and the Mac n cheese. Honey the Mac was not our aunties Mac ! It did need salt , but it was good the fries could’ve used less salt but overall this place is decent. 6/10. 😊

There was absolutely nothing that I didn’t love about this place. The decor is beautifully done. My hummingbird drink was nearly too cute to enjoy and the food was delicious! The staff is very friendly and attentive while dining there. Would suggest to friends and family anytime they are in the Sandy Springs area to enjoy for sure.

Mediocre experience for our anniversary dinner... Food 3/5 The Umami Salmon and the Korean Short Rib were amazing in flavor. They were well crafted and balanced dishes. The plating of the Korean Short Rib was questionable as seen in the photo attached. It all seemed "pushed to one side" as my wife stated. For dessert we chose the chocolate cake with ice cream. The flavors of the two items were very good however the cake could have gone with being a little bit denser. When offered sparking water, there was no indication that there would be an additional charge ($10 per bottle). From experience at other restaurants, if the sparkling water costs extra, it is stated by the waiter when selected. We were given no indication of this and only found out at the end of our meal. Service 2/5 When I made our reservation I stated that it was our anniversary dinner which was then acknowledged by the hostess when we arrived. However there was nothing special done during the dinner. We have been to other (less expensive) restaurants with better attention to detail and service. At the end of our dinner we politely reminded our waiter that it was our anniversary dinner and she tried to save herself by offering "champagne in a to-go cup" Service was slow and abrasive at times. After finishing our dessert and our dessert plate was taken away, it took another 15 minutes for the waiter to hand us the bill. Atmosphere 4/5 The main dining area was quite dark at night making it difficult to really see the food. We sat in the middle section near the pass, and the lighting may have been different in other sections. The décor was otherwise great however I wished that we were placed in a different section as the middle section seemed to be the worst of the three.

I have seen a lot in social media about this restaurant. My wife and me decided to come for our valentines date night. This restaurant is awesome … we had the best waiter ever… he knew the whole menu by heart and suggested the majority of what we ate. Jonathan N you were amazing! Thank you so much for making our experience a memorable one. Sea bass + Korean ribs+ Peruvian ceviche + sticky toffee pudding
