by Holly H. on Completely overrated. The food was dry, service was slow, wait was horrendous -- and for what? I am all for trendy and modern, but back it up with substance. We all left hungry. Burgers are tiny -- which I guess is supposed to be cool, but we were not impressed.
by Laverne Barg on I guess it's really about the people you go with. The first time I went here, I didn't have a lot of fun. I went with a friend and her girl friends with some guys. I didn't know anyone else and they were all close so it wasn't that fun. It also didn't help that I didn't find the parking structure and paid $20 for parking! Not that cool. Now the second time I went was a lot better! First of all, I found the parking structure and it was only like $6-8. Second of all, it was a "single guy's night out" and I had a DD so rest assured I made the most of that. And no, if you were there, I was not any of the sleezy, creepy guys. That's not my style. Anyways, fun times, that's all I have to say about that night. Talk to me if you want details.
by Blake B. on If you go two doors down from MJQ to the Local on a Wednesday night, you'll hear the same question repeated over and over, like a refrain, "Are you going next door? Are you going to MJQ?" For a long while now MJQ has been Atlanta hipsters' second home, particularly on Wednesday nights when they do 'britpop night,' though they don't exclusively play britpop anymore because britpop isn't quite as in now as it used to be. The main bar room itself is cool looking, if small---a huge bar in the center with cushioned seats and a large dancefloor. It's usually so dark in here that people can makeout without being seen. And they do. Indie meat market? Exactly. Wear your cool pants. One time I got grabbed here by a stocky woman with a lazy eye who made me dance with her to Prince. It was awkward. There are a lot of awkward lurkers here. It is a lurkers haven. The smaller room sometimes gets busy but is less frenzied than the main. MJQ can be fun when it isn't too crowded, though it seems to be getting worse and worse. The last time I went it was so packed I couldn't move and the air was like sweat. Better atmosphere than Buckhead bars, and supposedly cooler kids, but you know, is indie Buckhead any better than real Buckhead? At least those frat guys don't pretend to gots brains. Nonregulars here usually have a hard time finding the place because there aren't any signs. I've been asked by carloads of kids where MJQ is many times. I like to give them wrong directions. That's funny. But just between me and you: it's across from the Murder Kroger on Ponce. Head toward the garage door that leads into the ground. The concourse. How brilliant.
