    Easily my favorite restaurant in Atlanta. The build out is super cozy. They are always playing amazing jazz. The staff is professional and squared away, but incredibly friendly and never snobby or stiff. I’ve probably been two dozen times now and every dish I’ve ever had there has been a 10.

    We had an absolutely amazing experience at the Optimist. Our server was Damien and he gave excellent service all night. All the food tasted amazing and it was perfectly coursed throughout the night. Additionally, Damien had a strong table presence that really made our night. We will definitely be back.
