It would seem that The Burger Club has gotten off to a rocky start. First, there was the name fiasco; then the opening date was repeatedly pushed back. After all that, the lukewarm reviews started to come in. Despite these adverse factors, this Vinings burger joint seems like a bustling hotspot; at least that was the …

Yakitori Jinbei Restaurant Review: Ramen Abounds – Smyrna, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]
It seems almost shameful. Not only am I deeply passionate about Japanese culture and cuisine, but I pride myself on visiting most anything that resembles a Japanese restaurant here in the Dirty. Such was the basis for my dismay as I met up with ChowDownAtlanta (website) for a little grub late last week. …

C & S Seafood And Oyster Bar Restaurant Review – Vinings, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]
At first glance, C&S Seafood and Oyster bar is another in the long list of Atlanta restaurants that under delivers and over charges. As with all first impressions, it’s hard for any single diner, myself included, to ascertain the differences between systematic failure and the anomaly of a bad meal. If I had to venture …
Roy’s Cheesesteaks Restaurant Review: Philly In The Dirty – Smyrna, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]
It’s not a place where the decor is of primordial importance (clean, simple, yet reminiscent of a chain) and it’s not a place where you need a whole lot of direction (it’s cheesesteak-centric). However, that doesn’t mean that Roy’s Cheesesteaks is lacking in any true sense of the word. Stashed away up in Smyrna, just …

Phuong M.I.A. From Tasty China In Smyrna
Apparently, Phuong has mysteriously gone missing from Tasty China. Two weeks ago, I was told she was out sick. Didn’t think much of it… until I read this in my twitter feed. So is she gone for good? Boy I hope not. I will see if we can get to the bottom of this. Technorati …
Muss & Turner’s In Vinings, Smyrna: Atlanta Sub & Sandwich Tour #6
I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time in the Vinings area the past few days. After a great lunch at Social Vinings on Tuesday and a disaster of a meal at nearby South City Kitchen later that night, I returned today to hit up Muss & Turner’s for lunch. I haven’t spent this much time …
