Atlanta, Georgia 30307

Price Range: $$$

Type of food: Modern American

Wines or Special drinks: Anything you could possibly want.

Food: The food is great, and it's easy to find something on the menu no matter what mood you are in.

Impressions: I loved the space and atmosphere it had great lighting and a good vibe to it. One thing to consider is that when one of our hometown boys beats Bobby Flay on the hit culinary show Iron Chef the food has got to be fantastic.

Atmosphere:  Located in a rehabbed industrial space of the former stove works, Rathbun's adds a touch of flavor to Krog street that was needed. A great space with high ceilings, exposed brick and great booths.  There is buzz in the main dining room that looks high end yet feels very casual, divided by a great bar and huge red lanterns. You also have the option of a quieter dining experience, Ask about the wine room with a hugh wall wine bottles, or their covered patio. 

Service: Service is generally gracious and pleasant.

Comments: Great place for a date. New American menu using seasonal ingredients is great for varying budgets and appetites. 

Budgeting Tip: Eat at home a drive up for a desert plate. You get to pick from a large list including the Chefs daily creations. The deserts range from, 5.95 for an  individual,  3 deserts for 11.00, or the best deal!!! 4 deserts for 12.00
