We took part in the Halloween special last night at One Midtown. We live in the neighborhood and always enjoy the creative decor of the large restaurant, but I am consistently disappointed with the food. The most outstanding negative came last night in the form leg of lamb. I watched my boyfriend slowly work through mounds of connective tissue and fat. It definitely fit the bill as a ghastly dish on the Halloween menu. What really frustrated us was the response from the waiter when he asked how our dinners were as he cleared the plates. I said so-so, he quickly dismissed us and said great, thanks for coming.
Pros: glitzy decor
Cons: impersonal service, poor quality control

I ate here with my boo-diddy we had a great time. The host, Bob, was very amiable, and our server (Roberta) gave us great suggestions about the menu. I had Steak Frites and they were nice and tender. He had the Duck and it was oh-so delicious, even the lentil! We had a great time and enjoyed the atmosphere. Thankfully, we came when there wasn't a crowd but by the time we left it was starting to feel a bit cramped at our table-for-two.
Pros: Service, Food
Cons: strong marguerita, tables kinda close

This will be my 1st visit to One Midtown Kitchen, I'm celebrating with my wife and a few friends have both good and bad things to say about OMK, so I'm deciding to check it out for myself, we have reservations at 8:30, I called a couple of hours in advance to request a booth, before I can even explain what occasion or event my wife and I are celebrating, I'm rushed off the phone by, "BOB". I'll post my review if we have dinner there, after being rushed off the phone I'm not so sure we will even go!
Well, Bob turned out to be a great guy so maybe I was the one acting an a$$ on the phone, (I've been known to ba an a$$hole quite often) nonetheless, the food was decent, the service was excellent, Our reservations were for 8:30, we arrived around 8:20. I requested a booth and we were seated as soon as we walked into the restaurant. Our Waiter "jose" was excellent, all in all, I'll visit one again!
Pros: Reservations at 8:30
Cons: Rushed off the Phone confirming Reservations.

I really like the food at One Midtown Kitchen. I thought the place had a really unique atmosphere. I hated the unisex bathrooms. But that is beside the point. Definitely a fun night out in Atlanta

It is definitely a hip place. I'm amazed that it's still going strong after several years. They've kept some of the standby menu items, which is nice, while incorporating some new ideas.

I?ll get right to it here. The food.....starters were OK, one soup delicious, Caesar salad so so. Main, brisket, the chef's specialty, nicely cooked but not a lot of taste nor was there a lot of taste in the risotto which was more like really soggy tapioca and I wasn't too jazzed up about the balsamic cabbage. Desserts you ask?...Well the chocolate thingy with mint ice cream was really good. Fresh mint in the ice cream. The lemon tart was so-so. Not a big lemon taste there. So far just fair. You ask about service? Well, our waitperson Bernie was terrific and she and her wait partner really worked the room. Had a hitch with the food runner. Our entree was delivered to the table with us having barely finished our starter. The plates were still on the table. The guy gave us attitude as if we had done something wrong. I wasn't aware that we were supposed to clear our own table. I guess the entree plates were hot. OK, that's gotta hurt but when he saw the first course plates were still on the table he should have put our dinners down on the side (plenty of room for that), collected the plates and then served the dinner. Frankly that really ticked me off although when I mentioned it to a responsible person they were concerned and said they?d make sure they fixed that. Good answer. Also had a little problem with port being served with a ton of sediment. I think we're blaming that on a well-meaning new bartender who just needed a quick lesson. He should be good to go after that. All in all, with about $150 in gift certificates to Fifth Group restaurants, I have a funny feeling I'm going to have trouble spending that dough and I live a few steps away from Tap and Trois. It?s a shame. They really need to work on consistency and flavor. We?ll wait and hope for the best.
Pros: Good wait staff
Cons: Mediocre food

We went there for our anniversary and reserved a booth 3 week in advance, when we arrived a booth was not available, and we were seated in a table for 2 sandwiched between 2 tables of 4 people tables (very loud people. Food is 7 on a scale of 1-10. I would recommend it for a casual dinner not for something special.
Pros: quick seating
Cons: Poor Service
