Rock Steady - Atlanta

I went here for the first time and I'll definitely be back! Unfortunately, I didn't take any pics. Wish I would have because the presentation of all food and drinks were on point!! The food was absolutely delicious. Our drinks came with a pretty flower in them and tasted really good. To eat, I had the spiced honey shrimp. Really good with the coconut rice. My bf had the grilled jerk chicken meal and I've never seen him clean his chicken like that . I tasted it and it was juicy and flavorful. We indulged in some dessert too. I had the peach pie and he had the plantain bread pudding. When I tell you I didn't want it to end!!! And I tasted his dessert and swore before I don't like bread pudding but that one was so nice!This place is beautifully decorated with an African vibe and the service was excellent as well. We didn't stay long enough to experience the DJ but we will definitely be back! Oh valet parking is available too.

The vibe of this place is really nice! Great for a date night, bday dinner whatever. It's a bit dark for my liking but that's only because I'm an old lady lolOur waitress was outstanding and very attentive to each table I wish I remembered her name. The bathroom was clean and had a pleasant smelling. (Is that an odd thing to say?)Moving along, the Drinks*Sun Goddess 10/10 it was a cream drink that was so amazing. *Rock Steady 10/10 it was very refreshing and tastyFood*LAMB EGGROLLS 9/10 these were delicious. I took a point away because it has a smidge of the gamy taste but the dipping sauce they serve with it is flavorful.*SPICED WILD HONEY SHRIMP 8/10 I'm still thinking about this food 3 days later! (The dish said it came with broccoli and to my surprise it was actually tiny slivers of it. & it could've used a bit more rice) I'd order it again either way!*OXTAILS DITALINI PASTA 9/10 Fire!! I've never had that type of pasta, I thought it was rice. It was good yet interesting. Meat was tender (could've used a sprinkle of salt) Flavor was there*PEACH PIE 8/10 it was pretty tasty (it didn't have much sauce on the inside of it.I'd go back!

A group of college friends got together for a weekend in Atlanta and football. We made a stop at Rock Steady, and I'm glad we did. It was a bit loud, so communicating with the staff was a bit of a challenge. I asked about the honey fire shrimp, and asked for recommendations for a substitution for the coconut rice as I'm allergic. I got the jahn jahn rice instead, and the dish was fantastic. Very flavorful with a complex taste with simple ingredients. They have a pretty strict limit on time you can be in there, which was bit of a turn off. But, I have been singing the shrimps praises since I returned to California.

I can't even type this without addressing the fish first. The red stripe catch was one of the best fish dishes I have EVER had from a restaurant. Literally had to stop eating it so I could take some home. IMMACULATE!! Alright now back to scheduled programming this place is a straight vibe!!! The music, the service, drinks and atmosphere is great. I cannot wait to come back here!

Rock Steady offers a spectacular ambiance and delicious food that left a strong impression on me during my brunch visit. I loved it so much that I brought a group of 15 for dinner on a Friday night. The hostess, Amber, was absolutely amazing--sweet and accommodating despite a 30-minute wait past our reservation time due to another group still occupying our table. We passed the time at the bar, though the drinks took a while, and the bartender wasn't the friendliest.Once we were seated, it took quite a bit of time to get service from our waitress, Maya, who likely had her hands full with other tables and our large group. Despite this, Maya made excellent food recommendations, and I particularly enjoyed the fried catfish--it was probably the best I've ever had. The yuca fries, however, were overpowered by garlic and had an aftertaste that I didn't care for.A 20% gratuity is automatically added to all checks, which is understandable, but it's worth noting that if you want to sit upstairs in the lounge, it's $100 per person. Overall, we had a good time, especially thanks to the DJ and the quality of the food. However, the service was just so-so. I'd return to Rock Steady, but I would avoid bringing a large party next time.

I visited Rock Steady on Saturday night with some friends. I was able to reserve a table earlier in the day for cocktails only. They only allow an hour reservation for cocktails only and if you want to extend the time then you have to add-on bottle service. We opted for cocktails only for an hour. They had a DJ, so the vibes were pretty good. A few song selections weren't a vibing, but overall, the cocktails and atmosphere were good. As the night went on, it began to get very packed. After our hour was up, we had to move for the next reservation. That was my only gripe, there were only a few tables and then you had to stand in cramped spaces. It's a good time, but just be prepared to stand unless you do bottle service!

I finally made it to this restaurant. And I like it. Parking: street, valet or public parking all around. Most economical was street. 3 hours for a little over $6. Entrance/decor: nicely dressed doorman, valet and staff. Decor is as is from the pictures. Food: we had lamb chops, cauliflower and wings. Enjoyed all of it. I would have preferred the lamb chops a little more tender. My preference. But everything was seasoned and presentation was perfection. And drinks were very good!!!Service: our waiter was phenomenal. I had tons of questions, and she was very patient. It seemed like it was a busy night. There is a lounge upstairs and a private room downstairs. Upstairs was thumping, Dj and vibes was great. I will definitely return.

So the food at rocksteady atlanta was OK!The people in my party were very disappointed in the lack of flavor as so was I The cauliflower, not so goodThe brussel sprouts were delicious The veggie pasta not so muchNeedles to say I may stop by to hang out in the lounge but as far as the food goes, I don't think I will travel down that road again....Sidebar if you plan on hanging out in the lounge, you have to have a reservation we got there early, sat down and was not able to stay because we didn't know we needed to reserve a table. Overall, I give this place to Starz just because the prices on the food were very high, and the quality was very low.

Birthday dinner (restaurant). Luckily reservations were made. Valet was $20. Parking lot across Marietta was only $6. Service was good. Food taste was excellent. Portion sizes were perfect. Kinda dark in the restaurant. Upstairs is way too crowded and loud.

Amazing food! The music and vibes were exactly what I was looking for, they played early 2000's R&B when I went.
