I was pleasantly surprised at Sweet Auburn's ambience. It has a very cozy vibe. The surprise Freak Me Bae Bae cocktail was delicious. Although the main courses were excellent, I highly recommend the pimento cheese wontons & brisket egg rolls. They are delicious*

The service staff are top tier. Because one of us are vegetarian, I wish there was a vegetarian hot entree item available. Cocktails are fun and creative, nice wine menu.

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner here! The circular panorama of Atlanta at sunset was a beautiful backdrop as we enjoyed a sumptuous meal (smoked trout appetizer, sea bass and mushroom risotto entrees, and the blue dome chocolate dessert with coffee). Our server (Antoinette) was attentive, informative and highly engaging, too. Net, an overall delightful experience!
