The Betty - Atlanta

My fiance and I went here on a Friday with high hopes of a pleasurable experience, good food and drinks. Sadly we were 0 3 If I could give this place a zero, I would. While we were seated right away it took 15 minutes to be acknowledged, and another 5 to 10 minutes to be asked for a drink order. After waiting several minutes for our drinks, it appeared as if the drink orders were never put in. We walked out disappointed.

Typical ATL restaurant. Overpriced, mediocre service, and dull atmosphere. Don’t get gaslighted into coming here by instagram influencers.

We went for drinks. Bar staff very nice . I asked if they can get a head on the espresso martini , I got an emphatic yes. But delivered with no head at all- that’s not an espresso martini- very

What a lovely restaurant. Bright smiles all around as we were greeted. The bar and restaurant are sleek and dark. The bottles sparkle. Would the food live up? Our server was super knowlegeable and helpful with the menu. The four of us had a good cross section of the menue and everything was terrific. The potato side dish was ridiculously rich. In a good way. We enjoyed everything about The Betty and plan to return.

The food is great here, and the servers are nice and attentive. Decor is attractive and noise level is fine. There was a nice jazz trio playing. But our food took forever. The kitchen just wasn't sufficiently staffed for New Year's Eve. Our server worked hard to make amends, but it was almost four hours from start to finish and we ushered in the new year in the car driving home. Because of the food, server, and vibe, I'd go back again, but on a low-key night.
