If there was a rating below 1 star, Family Dog deserves it. We sat at the bar for 15 minutes on a Friday at 7:30 and we weren’t even acknowledged. The bar wasn’t even half full! The bartender was stacking glasses, chatting with co-workers, and doing other side work. She was completely uninterested in her 6 or 7 guests seated at the bar. We got up and left, which we have never done in our lives. Having worked in the service industry for years, I will always give front and back of house staff the benefit of the doubt, but taking a drink order is imperative and one of the more simpler tasks of a bartender.

I had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant, thanks in large part to the exceptional service provided by Brooklyn. Her charming personality and infectious smile added a special touch to our meal. From her warm welcome to her attentive recommendations, Brooklyn’s knowledge and genuine care made us feel like valued guests. I highly recommend requesting Brooklyn as your server for an unforgettable dining experience.

Service needs help! Drinks were great! Server was sitting in a back booth on phone. Had to go to him to ask for more drinks and such. Wrong wing flavor brought to table first, then took 30 more minutes for the right ones to come. This was our appetizer. So many open tables. One cook. Worried about how long it’s going to take for our salads and avocado toast.

The food was ok. I had the fried chicken sandwich, but made it to a biscuit. The biscuit was kinda dry and hard. I’m not really sure if they actually have a dog menu, but our server told us they can cook some meat patty for our dog. The rest of the food was just ordinary.

Came into town from Indianapolis for the weekend and stumbled upon The Family Dog! Great atmosphere! Duffy was amazing!! He welcomed me with open arms and provided a 10/10 experience. I would definitely recommend The Family Dog to anyone that comes to Atlanta!

The family dog is the best neighborhood restaurant bar in Virginia highlands! If you want a friends atmosphere, live games and amazing food and drinks, this is the place for you. If you visit you must introduce yourself to Jonathan and Savannah who make sure that you have the best experience.

Stopped by for brunch. They are dog friendly but only have 7 tables available for families with dogs. When we arrived almost all tables were occupied by patrons without pets. Once we got our table, the wait staff was friendly. While we were looking for a table, we were ignored by all staff. They have a limited menu but the food was good. Full bar and craft beers.

The best place in town! No matter if you’re stopping in for a quick beer after work, weekend brunch or catching the game with your friends, the vibes are always there. Duffy and crew are fantastic! Madi, Savannah, BJ, Byron, Jovana and James always treat you like family.
