The night before Thanksgiving with Atlanta being fairly dead HALO was vividly alive, sophisticated and sexy without an attitude. A very discreet entrance reminiscent of chic Manhattan establishments from clubbier days opens into a cavern of beautifully lit space. Raw concrete posts contrast with a polished alabaster bar that glows from within with a very flattering warm light. The staff offers excellent service, is there when desired and otherwise stays out of the way. The crowd is largely made up of attractive, affable young people a not ashamed of being friendly and visibly enjoining themselves. Drinks were drinks and nothing was overpriced or silly. HALO is a definitely the current highpoint on the Atlanta bar scene. Go for the atmosphere and mix with the crowd.
