The Ponce Room Bar & Kitchen

Our team was in town to host a workshop for a sales development program I was running. We would looking for something close and casual for dinner. Location: it's conveniently located if you are walking - It's right across the street from Fox in the courtyard by Marriott and we were staying at hotel indigo. Parking: we walkedService: Only a few ppl were in there getting drinks, so we didn't wait at all for a table or service. We didn't have to make reservations either. Ambience/Crowd: hard to determine since we were the only ones in there besides the staff. The decor is very modern but it seems to be a more business casual environment. Food/drink : 5/10 I have the wings and fries, being raised in the Atlanta area my expectations for wings is high but these were pretty good. Favorite thing: the simplicity of the menu and the decor Least favorite thing: the tables, it was hard to have a conversation as a group because it wasn't a "real booth" Will I be back? Yes, the wings were good and it's walking distance from our ATL office.

Honestly I was quite surprised. My first time here and they did not disappoint. We were seated right away and they had live music. The food was great! It's a limited menu on Sunday brunch but we were able to make it work. We all ordered our dishes with blackened salmon but after several min, were informed that they were out. No problem. I opted for blackened chicken for my grits instead of shrimp (I've been having an adverse reaction lately) best combo I didn't know I needed! The blackened chicken was evenly portioned with flavorful seasoning and the grits were perfectly creamy. My friends that ordered shrimp were disappointed - it seemed like a bad batch. It was rubbery and didn't smell right. But the F&B manager was gracious enough to bring them a side of chicken breast and took 30% off the bill for the inconvenience. We had the standard cocktails - mimosa with blood orange & French 75 with tequila repo. Very goodThe only negative comment I had was the wait time. Our server didn't check on us for atleast 30 min. At 1:30p it's only 2 groups - ours and 1 other. Plus maybe 2 couples at high tops so we didn't understand the reason for the neglect and lack of communication. There were atleast 3 other servers on the floor and it wasn't anywhere near busy. Overall, great brunch spot if you want a relaxed vibe without the chaos of a Sunday. I'll return during the week and see how their reg menu and the crowd is then.

We walked in 15 minutes before the end of brunch service but Cassandra told us they could accommodate and they did! It was an unseasonably chilly, rainy Atlanta day so we each opted for hot tea. The Cajun shrimp and grits was delicious, as well as the Cajun catfish and grits. Catfish is always hit or miss but this was fried to perfection and wasn't mushy like catfish can be, or soggy even though it was placed atop a bed of grits swimming in Cajun sauce (which tasted like lobster bisque btw). I loved it! Cassandra was extremely personable and provided top notch service! Would definitely return for brunch and to check out dinner on a return trip to Atl. 10/10

We had the pleasure to eat at The Ponce Room before attending a Broadway Show at The Fox Theatre. We chose the Ponce Room because it is conveniently located across the street from The Fox Theatre, they offer a discount to Broadway show season ticket holders, and the Brunch Menu looked delicious. While there, we enjoyed live music by a local musician named Chip Jones. The ambiance was perfect. We started with some refreshing mimosas and a friendly greeting by our waitress, Jenny. The staff were incredibly professional and friendly. We interacted with two bartenders, a kitchen server and our waitress. Everyone was great!The food portions were very large and did not disappoint. We ordered a breakfast potato skillet and turkey club with french fries. I'm usually not too crazy about french fries. However, I have to tell you, these fries remained salty, crispy, and delicious through the whole meal and I finished my shared portion. Again, the serving portions were huge! The potato skillet was piled so high with deliciousness! I kept digging through the skillet and really never made it to the bottom. It was really yummy. All the food used fresh ingredients. The sauce on the side of the breakfast potato skillet really complimented the meal. Turkey club sandwiches are one of my favorite items to order off a menu. I have to say, this by far, is ranked as my favorite club sandwich. It was filled so high with meat and the fresh avocado was absolutely amazing. We plan to make this our dining spot before every Broadway show for the rest of the season. We've already decided that we will need to order the Beignets and the Chicken-N-Waffle Stack on our next visit. We are so excited to call The Ponce Room one of our favorite spots. We are so happy they partnered with The Fox Theatre to give Broadway Season Ticket Holders, like myself, a discount on show days.

Got down to the Fox Theatre early so decided to pop into Ponce Room for a quick cocktail and bite before the show. I have been before but this time was much more crowded, persons with the warmer weather. It was only me so I was able to get a seat at the outdoor bar. I was able to place my food and drink order immediately. The delicious poke nachos came out quickly but the drink took a long time with an apology for the wait. This also happened to me last visit. Something to keep in mind if you are going to a show after. I was able to pay quickly and get to the show across the street in plenty of time. Nice option to have before a show, the bartenders were working HARD (bravo!) and I will be back before another show in the future.

If you are heading to The Fox Theater for a show please make sure you stop by The Ponce Room! It has a perfect blend of tasty cocktails and savory bites that gives you a great start to any evening on the town! The food was simple, tasty and not too heavy. The waitress was quick and efficient! I think the service was so great because they are use to the pre show rush. The ambiance is trendy casual. You will feel all positive vibes from the diverse patrons!

Cute little place to grab a bite to eat right inside the Marriott. It's across from the Fox and I see how that helps business for sure. Small (very small) dinner menu but, something to eat for most people. The drink menu had lots of options though if you're looking for that. Grabbed a couple burgers and drinks quickly. Service was very good and efficient. Whole area was clean. The burgers were tasty and the tots I got with it as a side were very good/crispy! Would definitely drop in again if nearby for a bite. Prices vary for drinks in the teens, most menu items as well. Burger with side was $16 and the sour beer I tried was $6.

Oh my! What a delicious treat! The pimento cheese is amazing! Best I've ever had. The wings were tasty too. My drink was good. The service at the bar was slow but, they were busy. I definitely will return to try the burger and fish and chips. It's across the street from the Fox Theater. A win, win!

I love staying at this hotel. Everyone is so nice and helpful. The only thing I really enjoyed at the restaurant was the shrimp there it's delicious
