    Could not have celebrated Christmas Eve any better. Our first time at The Vandiver and everything was right on. Our waitress, Alex(andra), was incredibly superb. The meal was exquisite, from appetizers to desserts. Can't wait to return.

    We dined at seven pm. Beautiful location. Seated immediately. Appetizers were good. When ordering food we were informed they were out of Wellington and prime rib. Very disappointing. Obviously a problem if you are out of your signature dish’s that early in the evening. Everyone’s food was good, it just wasn’t what we came there to eat!

    As folks who split time between Atlanta and Clayton, our dinner experience for one of our kiddos (turning 26) was terrific! The team added special touches for our birthday girl and the atmosphere was lively. The food was delicious and the tacos, burger, schnitzel and sprouts for the table were delicious. Limited wine list but the options are solid. This wasn’t our first visit and won’t be our last. Hats off to Indigo Road for rehabbing the Old Clayton Inn and bringing a vibrant space to one that was empty for years! The concept is on par with what one would expect in a bigger city. Looking forward to our next meal!

    Great new fine dining experience in Clayton! Pork chop, trout & burger at the table were all delicious! Lovely fresh Caesar salad, best I’ve had in a while. Also try the blackberry cocktail…very yummy! Servers were so friendly & attentive! Definitely will return.
