I am visiting the city of Atlanta from the city of Seattle Washington. This restaurant was highlighted on a cooking show I was watching. The food was amazing. The price point was wonderful and we had a great server. I forget his name, but he was very thorough , he knew the menu and recommended dishes to us . Soul food with a twist . I would recommend it to anyone. We had three generations together , myself my daughter and my granddaughter so we had a wonderful time. This is a must go to place on our family list.

    My family and I really enjoyed dinner at The Sunday Table @ The Darwin Hotel! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was excellent, and the overall experience was a great value. I had the oxtails, turnips, and red beans and rice, and everything was full of flavor. The oxtails were tender and seasoned perfectly, and the sides tasted like true Southern comfort food. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The service made the experience even better. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely welcomed. Great food, great service, generous portions, and a good value. I’ll definitely be back! If you’re looking for a good Southern meal in a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend The Sunday Table.
