Park 82

Last night, I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Park 82, located at 4403 Northside Parkway in Vinings, Atlanta, GA. The restaurant boasts a cozy yet contemporary ambiance that makes it an ideal spot for either a romantic dinner or a relaxed evening out with friends.The culinary experience began with a taste sensation--the Bourbon Glazed Turkey Meatballs appetizer. The harmonious blend of savory and sweet was a delightful surprise, setting the stage for what was to come. The meatballs were cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful, with the bourbon glaze providing just the right touch of sweetness to elevate the dish.For my entrée, I opted for the Braised Short Ribs, accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes and expertly cooked carrots. The short ribs were nothing short of extraordinary--so tender they practically fell apart, bursting with rich, deep flavors that made every bite irresistible. I was so captivated by this dish that, for the first time in ages, I found myself cleaning my plate.To cap off the evening, I treated myself to a peach turnover served with ice cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. The dessert was a flawless conclusion to the meal, offering a warm, flaky pastry paired with cool, creamy ice cream--a beautiful contrast of textures and flavors that left a lasting impression.Park 82 not only met but exceeded all my expectations. From the attentive service to the thoughtfully crafted dishes, every aspect of the dining experience was exceptional. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to this culinary gem in Vinings.#AtlantaFoodScene #ViningsEats #GourmetDining #FoodLovers #DateNightSpots #Park82 #EpicureanDelight #MustTryEats #AtlantaRestaurants #SweetAndSavoryPerfection

We had the most amazing time here. Not only was the food on point, but the atmosphere was amazing! The best part of the entire meal was our waitress. Her name escapes me but she had on white doc marten boots if this helps to give her kudos lol we were in Atlanta visiting my older son and she went outside and took pics of us all together in front of this lovely garden setting with a fountain. The pics came out great btw. Thank you for a wonderful evening. They did just have a change in ownership or management and some things were not on the menu as expected but we are not picky and we go with the flow, the alternatives were just as outstanding as we'd hoped everything to originally be. It's truly a hidden gem in the Vinings. Give it a try. You will not be disappointed.

Rating a 4 because though I was dissatisfied with the flavor of the Jamaican Oxtails and mac n cheese and felt like the artichoke dip was very chunky as a result of way to many brussel sprouts, my date and I received great service. The restaurant was clean and it wasn't too busy so our food came out at a decent time. My date ordered a cheeseburger and fries and you can't go wrong with that so he was satisfied. Flavor is very important to me and having a "Jamaican-inspired"dish such as oxtails on the menu excited me; however, it was missing key ingredients. The portion for the price wasn't that great either and I am very aware of how pricey oxtails are. That plate was $33 and I received 3 and 1 of them was mostly bone (see photo). I did give my feedback to the restaurant manager (aim assuming that's who he was) because he came around and asked my opinion.

We came here for our 32nd Anniversary. Food was excellent. Service wonderful. Ambiance perfect for a quiet anniversary dinner. Filet was amazing. This may just become one of our go to places for any occasion because we enjoyed it so much!

Came here for dinner because the oxtail pizza caught my eye on their menu and I must say it did not disappoint! It was so delicious! The sweetness of the plantains paired very well with the savoriness of the oxtail and the gooey cheese! Omg! They also have a happy hour on Fridays for 25% off pizzas so that's even better! I also ordered the short rib which was extremely tender, it needed a pinch of salt for me but was very good. My brother had the ribeye with mac n cheese and Brussel sprouts. The steak was nothing special but the Brussels were tasty and the mac n cheese was ok. My mom had the pork tomahawk with the sweet potato "puree" and cabbage. The sweet potatoes were not good at all but she said the pork was seasoned well. Overall, our dinner was good, the ambiance was nice (especially with the Christmas decor), but the service was lacking.

Salmon dip: 6/10 Short Rib: 8.5/10 I love the location of this restaurant along with the simple, yet cute decor on the inside. I called when they opened and was able to set a reservation for 15 people the same night which I really appreciated! A lot of the reviews raved about how great their service was, but I didn't have a similar experience. Our server was nice and answered our questions, but he took a very long time to take our entree orders after telling him multiple times we were ready :( Aside from that, I enjoyed having a large dinner here! Their menu is very diverse and has something for everyone.I started with sharing the salmon dip which was okay. Not amazing, but not bad. It's a cold dip which threw me off, but once you get over that it's alright. Now, the short rib??? THAT was the star of my meal. It was so tender and cooked to perfection. I wish there was more sauce to have enough for the amount of mashed potato and meat. Aside from that it was full of flavor and i would recommend ordering it. I would come back to try some of their other entrees during some of their happy hour deals!

Wanted a good meal and looked highly rated on yelp.Kerrigan was my server, awesome. Outstanding service, real quiet on a Thursday night. Sat at the bar cool vibe and nice music in the background. I asked the server what was the best of 3 appetizers and she did hesitate with the best of the 3. But that left it open of what was the best appetizer and she said the bacon wrapped dates which was not one of the 3 I asked about so I went for the bacon wrapped cheese stuffed dates.My first drink was the midnight train to Georgia. Impressive cocktail, smooth and smoky while not too sweet. I am not normally a peach liquor person but it really complemented the drink. One of the better old fashioned I have had.The bacon wrapped cheese stuffed dates were off the chain. The mix of sweet and savory was on point. There's pepper jelly went perfect with the salty bacon and sweet dates with the creamy cheese. Good job!!I am so glad I chose to eat here. Pay them a visit you will not be disappointed.I did the blackberry smoked bourbon next. Really good, just as good or maybe even a little better than the midnight train.See the theme I ordered a manhattan as Kerrigan suggested. It was a decent drink, maybe a bit on the sweet side and not quite as good as the old fashioned drinks.I ordered the oxtail pizza. Super good, real light Alfredo sauce, I got marinara on the side to lightly dip and that was perfect. Great pizza, crispy and soft at the same time. For me the marinara made the flavor profile perfect and they did not give me grief for it. A solid 4.5 spot.Really good experience

I found this place as a recommendation on Yelp and I'm glad I did. It's a hidden gem nestled in a quiet neighborhood. There's free parking in the parking deck which is always a plus. The restaurant is very nice and spacious. They also have dining on the patio for when the weather's nice. The food is delicious! I ordered the chicken lasagna and the Brussels and Artichoke dip which I highly recommend! I also ordered a mojito which was really good. The service was quick and good. They have music playing but is at a nice volume where you can still carry a convo. I highly recommend this place for a cute date night or catching up with friends, you won't be disappointed.

Came for the strawberry dessert but it was out of season, but here's my experience. Location: This spot is tucked away. When you find it, you'll love the location. There's a fountain right outside the front door. In the warmer months, they have outdoor seating and open doors to the patio. We visited in winter. So there was a wall of closed glass doors. I love it. There was tons of natural light, I could stare at the fountain. It was great. Parking was available in a deck behind the restaurant. There was plenty of free parking. Huge plus for me in a metro area. Service: As soon as we walked in the door, the service was top notch. Everyone who greeted or helped us was super nice. The restaurant was near empty because we came at 11:15. Not sure if that made a difference, but the service was fast and simple. Walking in, the restaurant was clean and neat. The seating was crowded. Really cool layout with booths, tables, and a pretty large bar. Food: I had the Garlic Pasta with shrimp. It was delicious. Came with toast. I added a side Caesar salad which was also great. I don't know exactly what my friend had. She customized one of the sandwiches. It had beef, but the beef came too raw for her liking. Be sure to specify when you order. They remade it quickly without any fuss. (Rare these days.)The desserts online looked delicious. So we opted for the brownie. To be honest, it was the least impressive part of our visit. The brownie came with ice cream but was cold. The ice cream was not sweet and the brownie was at best ok. Prices: The prices are a bit high. So, be ready for that. Our lunch (with dessert) was about $65. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and will definitely return.

Amazingly beautiful restaurant with wonderful waiters and great food! Highly recommend! It's a hidden gem!
