When the Bill comes
7 years agoGreat neighborhood “Whiskey” bar in Oakhurst. Located close to Decatur, this a great place to hangout. The food is fantastic on an ever rotating menu full of seasonal offerings. They also have a variety of craft beer available and yes whiskey. Reminds me of a true Irish pub. They have a great little patio are that is perfect for having a couple of cocktails or especially nice to enjoy brunch. Order the Chinese breakfast complete with crispy pork belly. A secret tip... order the house burger (it’s off menu) complete with bacon, fresh jalapeños and pimento cheese. Oh Yeah! And, if you’re in the neighborhood... they throw one hell of a good party on St. Paddy’s day; live music, drink specials and give aways. Plus Code- QM5W+PG Decatur, Georgia

7 years agoThis place has hands down the most underrated food in Atlanta. It's an ever changing menu, but it always features (randomly) a few amazing Asian offerings. They always have a rotating selection of pretty incredible, and rare draft beer, and the best part about it, I can almost always get a table. So, seriously, please, keep not coming here.

2 years agoShort review: For what seems like a small pub, they serve an amazing salmon dish and have overall great service. Definitely expect more options than frozen mozzarella sticks. Long review: The other dishes I have gotten here as a pescatarian have been good but not memorable. This, however, the salmon risotto, is one of the best things I’ve ever had and we have gotten it more than once and it has not missed. Excellent dish, well cooked, full of flavor. Our server was also wonderful and attentive. It does seem like it can take a while for a server to come to the table at times, but our server provided such excellent service and apologized for the wait, so I don’t feel justified in taking off points. In terms of the food selection, as others have mentioned, they don’t offer much (including dessert). They do, however, have a nice beer selection including a tasty stout (Monday stranger danger or something like that). But again, that salmon is so good, I don’t see how I could take off points. The place is pretty small, making it feel a bit claustrophobic for my taste, but they do have outdoor seating. The parking lot is also an interesting gravel/ dirt area for multiple businesses. It might be a bit difficult (though not impossible) for those with accessibility concerns in terms of maneuvering through the parking lot or restaurant, particularly people who use wheelchairs.

year agoWe celebrated my daughter's 40th birthday at Steinbecks Restaurant. We had fun. Lily and Luke are new friends we met. Luke was celebrating his MBA🎉🎊🍾. The steak was delicious. I had the chicken sandwich with Brussels sprouts... We enjoyed our meal.

6 months agoOne of my favorite places to eat with my kids in town. Cocktails are serviceable, beer list rotates but is always quality. Favorite foods are the wings and the pork belly bowl (any meal)

year agoI went here on 5/11/2025 for the first time. I'm new in the area this is a neighborhood pub or bar. Cool vibe from the music and entertainment on the TV..It took a minute for me to order but it was definitely worth the wait. I had a Guinness beer to sip on and a water until my food came. I got the Shrimp Ceviche with $1.00 extra chips made in house. The entree is delicious. Everything is fresh and good..My pretty nice waitress Remy took care of me..
Michelle Miller
year agoA cozy local haunt. We sat at the bar; the staff was friendly. The food came quickly, was presented well, and everything tasted hot and fresh. The wings are absolutely a Must Try. They have a great crunchy texture, and the flavor balances savory and sweet perfectly. So good we didn't take a pic 😂

month agoLove the location, outside seating is excellent, and Ramy makes all the kids feel awesome! She usually has some little gift for them and they all seem to know her name. Last weekend a toddler crossing the street was yelling out to her by name! This is truly a local community spot, which makes it a great family atmosphere. I recommend bei6a regular so you get the full experience!

Myeshia Forbes
month agoThis is a long overdue review as I have been a regular here for over 4 years. Everything I have eaten here is the best meal I have ever had. The Chinese breakfast is incredible, I have never had a better pork belly dish better than this, the burgers, I mean Its just literally the best, the umami fries is the perfect pairing, the Vietnamese Wings...it just doesn't get better than that, the kale salad is my favorite salad, it has ruined salads anywhere else for me, the brisket sandwich...my goodness it's so delicious. As you can see I eat here often. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
