This is the restaurant I've been dying to find since moving to Atlanta 3 years ago. This is officially the best brunch PERIODT. The vibe is so cool, so O4W. The hostess has the mostest and our server was so sweet and fun. Our new years day brunch was the total package. We're already planning our second meal later this week. I will be a regular.

Stations were excellent. Guest numbers did not overwhelm the system. Reservation system appeared to anticipate the volume and experience dictated the offerings such that the station offerings were always plentiful. Staff were excellent. My only observation would be the Grouper station.
