"I recommend Joey D's Oakroom for both the mall weary local and the experienced traveler. Here are just some of the reasons why: February, '05 actually marks my second visit to Joey D's Oakroom during the trip to Atlanta in the store. Joey D 's was recommended to me by a member of my hotel staff, and was described as a neighboring place; it differs from a typical;bar chain; Restaurant Klon You know the chains I mean...cookie butter food, drinks, pseudo-party atmosphere high with forced music and hyper friendly staff. Not so with Joey D's relaxed atmosphere allowed me to pass an unbelievably pleasant evening with people I only met on that day, some of whom have remained in contact with me, in large part to our common experiences with Joey D 's (first visit) and a second evening after an intense training conference where I find my; new one; with a dear friend and employee (second visit in February, 05). All in all that stands out to me was how the waiter went beyond and beyond to serve, including sharing a bit of himself with stories, smiles, and that ;something extra ; found with well selected, well-managed employees who play to, oh, a waiter comfortably with the group, or feel a waitress that something from a casual look amiss (it was best to satisfy them) and do. The food at both visits was excellent, the selection of desserts was fabulous, and the selection of wine and cigars allows a perfect evening nearby. My last comment must be, like my first Joey D's waiter, me and my employees on our first, very fine glasses of Dow 20 years old Tawny Port Wine, which remains my favorite to today. Go to Joey D 's next time you're in Atlanta, no matter what season you're disappointed!"
