Restaurants near Georgia State Capitol

End of the week connection time for wifey and I over dinner at The Optimist was perfect. The ambiance, food, and the personableness of our server were all aligned for a great night out.

This was my last day coming to Atlanta and I’m so glad I chose this restaurant to end the night with I ordered the farm house burger. It was so good from a rate from 1-15 I would say it’s a 11. I say that because I put fried hard egg on it. Now I have to come back and try again and more . The service was really good. I will comeback.

Brandon was an excellent server. He was training another server and his attention to both ensuring a quality customer experience as well as an effective employee training was apparent. The salmon was fantastic, and the spinach + artichoke dip was a great start. If you’re around during the holidays, ask about the off menu egg nog cocktail!

We dine at Rays in the city anytime we’re in town for a convention. The food and service are always wonderful. Their seafood is the best, IMO. Calamari is to die for and although they charge for the bread basket now, you must have it. So good!

The food and drinks were good. The restaurant is very pretty. The owner was pleasant and nice, she came over to our table and greeted us. There was one issue, the server charged us for the seafood rolls, however we never got them. We did go back the next day, informed the same server and she came them to us, they were yummy!!! If you are in ATL, check this restaurant out!!
