I don't have a problem paying $70/head for dinner, or fish entrees priced in the $25-35 range --- I think Atlanta needs more upscale dining. What I do have a problem with is paying that much for dinner and getting bad food. My wife and I tried 4th & Swift last night, and were thoroughly disappointed. I had a salad (nothing special, but impossible to screw up) and a bass dish, which was greasy and over salted, on a bed of overcooked risotto. My wife had a soup with a milk base, which was way overcooked (boiled milk=curdled milk) and a fish dish that was also just...not good.
Very disappointed overall. We won't be back.
Pros: Fun space, competent staff
Cons: Uninspired food, way overpriced, empty
