Last night at Little Sparrow we had one of the best meals we’ve had in an American restaurant. The restaurant was very comfortable, not quiet but with a noise level that allowed conversation. Our waitress was great, attentive but not overly visible. All the waitstaff seemed to work well together to take care of the patrons. The menu is not long but has multiple options for different tastes. All of the food was delicious with larger portions than usual at such a nice restaurant. We ended the meal with soft serve topped with apple and caramel - we only planned to eat a few spoonfuls but finished every bite because it was so good. I live in Denver now but look forward to my next trip back to Atlanta so I can return to Little Sparrow!

I had an amazing time at Divan! I have dined at this establishment several times but this time was different and very memorable. Chavon provided excellent service from beginning to end. She was friendly, attentive, and professional. Her food recommendations for my entree were top tier. I had the Beets Salad and the Duck Confit as my starters. Yum! Harris provided phenomenal service for the Hookah he prepared as apart of our dining experience as well. If you plan to frequent Divan, please ask for Chavon to be your server. She won't disappoint. And Chavon also surprised me with a special birthday dessert that made my day even more magical. 10 out of 10 experience!

    We had a spectacular meal at the sundial. Mike our server and staff were AMAZING! Certainly made the evening special for our anniversary. The food was divine: charred octopus app, lamb chops and infamous filet mignon. Side of brussel sprouts. The brought out a cheesecake dessert with a candle for our celebration! Of course the views are magnificent. Sundial is definitely the spot in the ATL!
