by Trinh D. on I'm from CA and visited GA and went to Opera to party with my friends on 8/6/2010. We had gotten the birthday VIP which include a bottle and a free complementary bottle of Champagne. The club overall was GREAT! but the service was HORRIBLE!!!!! We had gotten a bottle of Patron and with Opera supposedly they say they're not allow to have glass bottles on the table which I thought was weird because they left the champagne bottle on the table. So they poured our bottle of Patron into one of their glass vase which they use to serve your chaser with. We thought they poured our entire bottle into the vase but we were WRONG! It was 6 of us and we barely took 3 shots each! So when our glass vase was done with I called the bartender over and ask "where's the rest of our bottle?" She replied "that was it!" There was NO WAY 6 people can have less than 3 shot and our bottle was gone! The bartender continue saying that a Patron bottle is smaller and if we had gotten Grey Goose it would had been more. I told her that Patron & Grey Goose regardless of how the bottle is shaped if they poured it out it will be the same because it's in a 750mL bottle so regardless it will be the same amount. The bartender continue to argue with me and I swear I was ready to slap her because she was not making any sense! So whatever since I was out of town and my friends and I were just trying to have a good time I was like fuck it we'll go to the bar and buy shots. We went to the bar and I ordered shots of Patron and the bartender replied "tequila?" Yes Patron is a type of Tequila but she did not pour us Patron! She poured us some cheap ass Tequila!!!! Overall the crowd and the club was great but the service was so sorry!!!! Anyone going here for the first time and has bottle service PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO HOW MUCH OF THE BOTTLE THEY POUR because we paid over $400 and got ripped off!
by Kevin P. on I'm not a huge fan of Bobby Flay. When I watch Throwdown, I hope he gets destroyed by the competition. But I will admit he is a talented chef so we went to check out his burger "palace." Nice decor, modern, colorful, upbeat. Liked it. As soon as you walk in, you get in line to place your order, you get a number to display at the table of your choice and they bring your food out to you. There's quite a bit of seating but I'd imagine this place getting pretty packed during lunch and dinner. We ordered regular fries, sweet potato fries and onion rings. The regular fries were just ok, I thought they were a bit too hard. The sweet potato fries were better imo and the onion rings were my favorite out of the three. There are a couple of free dipping sauces you can eat your sides with. Free sauces are always a nice bonus. The consensus was that the burgers were good but not super. We kept on comparing the food against Sketch and thought that Sketch was better in almost every way. My burger was kinda dry, despite being pink in the center. I think the toasted bun added to the overall feeling of dryness. The burgers tended to be undercooked. So medium was closer to being rare. A basic burger is $6.50 and the specialty burgers are $7.50, which I think is kinda on the pricy side. However, everything had sort of an upscale feel to it, so I guess you're paying for that too. BBP is more yuppie-ish whereas Sketch is more hipster-ish. Would I ever say..."Hey, let's go to BBP!" Well, if I was attending college in the area, yes. I'd probably go back and try every burger on the menu. But since I'm not, if someone asked me "You wanna go to BBP?" my reply would be, "Are you gonna drive?" If the answer was yes, I'd say sure.
