1. Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
Atlanta, GA 30309
(404) 733-4900
Category:
Performing Arts
Neighbourhood: Midtown
Who would have thought I would be such a regular patron of the Atlanta symphony?!? Since my first review, I have frequented many a symphony concert, including several with special guest stars both at the Woodruff and at Chastain (Idina Menzel, Patti…More »

Loved attending the Disney Pops concert by the Atlanta Symphony- the music from Disney movies was… Read more »
2. Atlanta Ballet
My 300th review! I've been to several Atlanta Ballet performances over the last 2 seasons that I've been in Atlanta, all of which were performed at the Cobb Energy Centre.
The Magic Flute (Oct 2009)- I didn't realize that I had actually seen this…More »
3. Fox Theatre
Atlanta, GA 30308
(404) 881-2100
Categories:
Performing Arts,
Music Venues
Neighbourhood: Midtown
Gorgeous theater (some type of Mediterranean-inspired architecture- see others' Yelp reviews for more accurate descriptions!), great acoustics, sprawling balcony (not steep but there ARE stairs), unobstructed balcony view, pretty plentiful leg room…More »
4. Chastain Park
Chastain is picturesque (feels like it's in the woods, or someone's woodsy backyard) but because it's tucked away in a Buckhead neighborhood, there are expensive tickets, inconvenient parking (tiny lots far away if you don't have a pass, lots of…More »
5. Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
I really like this venue- it's clean, it's organized, and it doesn't take forever to get out of the parking areas. Your ticket come with a free parking voucher (nice!)- I've parked in both Lots A and B. It's a bit of a walk from Lot B, which is…More »
6. Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre
Nice place to catch a show.
Pros:
Convenient location off I-75
Box office- convenient hours & the temporary parking out front for those who want to avoid all the extra taxes & fees
Spacious and comfy seating with lots of leg room
Good sightlines
Nice…More »
7. Philips Arena
Went to the Phillips Arena for the Hawks home opener against the Wizards...I've also been there before for a Thrashers game, and a Dream game so a bit of variety. It's a large arena with good sense of traffic flow, despite the size of the crowd.…More »
8. Eddie's Attic
Decatur, GA 30030
(404) 377-4976
Categories:
Music Venues,
American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Decatur
Great place to listen to acoustic music- really chill relaxed atmosphere. It's an intimate, quiet "listening room" once the music starts so you can focus on the music.
A little cozy- the tables and chairs are very close to each other so if your table…More »
9. Vinyl
Nice intimate space for a concert, good acoustics, low ticket prices, big bar. Wish there were more tall pub tables and chairs along the middle & back of the room...low tables don't work when there are people standing in your way. I saw Wakey Wakey…More »
10. Actor's Express
Great little theatre- I came here for the musical "See what I Wanna See", which was a good production of the original off-Broadway hit. It was adapted well to the small space in their theater, and the acting troupe was eager to attack the material.

11. Dad's Garage Theatre
Atlanta, GA 30307
(404) 523-3141
Category:
Comedy Clubs
Neighbourhood: Inman Park
Saw Theatersports improv show a couple times with different improv-ers...a great time and authentically funny! Dad's Garage has an organic, slapped together type of feel with volunteers who staff the place. Cheap beers, snacks & beverages are a…More »
12. Alliance Theatre
Atlanta, GA 30309
(404) 733-4650
Categories:
Performing Arts,
Art Schools
Neighbourhood: Midtown
A nice medium sized theater- acoustics and sightlines were great from where I sat (middle of orchestra). I was here to see Sondheim's Into the Woods- the stage was a quirky, dark & elaborate set that fit the "fairy-tales-gone-awry" storyline of the…More »
13. Fabrefaction Theatre Company
Atlanta, GA 30318
(404) 876-9468
Categories:
Performing Arts,
Venues & Event Spaces
Neighbourhood: Westside / Home Park
Smaller theater housed next to Miller Union restaurant- another great independent theater option in Atlanta! The theater seating is auditorium seats in bleacher formation. Our tickets were general admission (so get here early to get your choice of…More »
14. Regal Atlantic Station Stadium 16
Convenient, spacious, comfy stadium seating, good sound, decent validated parking if you can find a space. I had dinner ahead of time so I didn't partake in the overpriced concession stand food.
Movies are expensive and I don't go very often...when…More »
15. Regal Cinemas Hollywood 24
This movie theater needs to learn a bit about crowd flow and management. It has 24 screens and a gigantic parking lot, you would think it knew that there would be large crowds of people coming in and out of this place.
I came here for a special…More »

Inman Park/Old 4th Ward (25)Inman Park and Old Fourth Ward! Trying out all the places near where I live...love this neighborhood. |
Making myself pretty (or at the very least- not scary) (10)I don't wake up looking like this...I gotta work at it. OK, not "work" per se, more like "pay" for it. |
Decatur (9)Tons of great places to eat & imbibe...all within walking distance of a square. |
Tastes of the Far East (20)Asian restaurants in Atlanta- I'm slowly compiling reviews from all the Asian restaurants I've tried in Atlanta- Chinese, Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese, etc...no 5-stars yet but plenty of 2-3-4 star places. |
Carbo Loading- Italian Style (Atlanta) (9)Italian dining in Atlanta has made me a little gun shy...while I love Italian food, I had a couple awful Italian food experiences when I first arrived in this city and usually end up at the same 2-3 Italian places I do like...so hopefully, making a list will encourage me to try a few more restaurants out there. Here's all of what I tried (minus the pizza places). |
Desert weekend getaway (11)Arizona vacation- Quick relaxing getaway, I need to make this a regular vacation destination! |
Party of one! Dining solo (19)Places in Atlanta where I've felt comfortable dining by myself. The only requirement is that there's a bar or small tables off to the side- nice bartenders, easy parking and good people watching areas also are a plus. For me personally, It's also nice to have no judgment or people staring if I want to order multiple dishes to try and bring leftovers home :) |
Restaurants to bring out-of-towners (14)Here's where I've brought family & friends visiting from out of town, who want some type of Atlanta food experience |
Being a tourist in Atlanta (13)I moved to Atlanta 2 years ago but I still enjoy exploring the city like a tourist. |
Dim Sum Quest- Atlanta (8)UPDATE: Found great dim sum!!!! See my last review on the list for Golden House.Original list description: I've pretty much given up on this one...I don't think great dim sum exists in Atlanta (especially a la carte and to go) so I'll have to settle for just good dim sum. |
