    We had a great time at Madre Selva celebrating Valentine's Day weekend! The food and drinks were exceptional, service was outstanding, our server Jenny was amazing and made great recommendations on food and drinks. This is the first Peruvian restaurant I have been to here in Atlanta that actually serves Classic Picarones

    Have been multiple times. Last night was for Valentine’s dinner. We had a table for two against a window—perfect, we had light and were away from the “energy” of the entrance and bar—and make no mistake, Rummi’s is energetic! There are a lot of people, a lot of movement, and with that comes volume. But that is part of Rummi’s. If you’re looking for a quiet, intimate spot, this isn’t it. If you’re looking for a fun night with wonderful food and service, you’ve found it! Food/service? I’ve never had anything less than excellent food here (I gravitate to the sea bass and a date milkshake for desert). Also, I’ve never had less than stellar service. Definitely a great spot for a fun night and wonderful food!
