Dan and I went to Tin Lizzy’s to try it out before the grand opening at the Perimeter location. I had heard that it was really good, but wanted to try it myself…

What did you order? How was your food?

We ordered a pitcher of Pomegranate Margaritas  and Chips with Queso Fundido to start. Queso Fundido is queso blanco with chorizo sausage, grilled onions and peppers. For our entrees, we tried a few of Tin Lizzy’s fun taco combinations. 




Dan had Spicy Cilantro Steak Tacos with grilled steak, jalapenos, onions and cilantro; Southern Comfort Chicken with grilled chicken, goat cheese, grilled onions, fried pickles and bbq sauce; and Chow Chow Shrimp with grilled shrimp with Asian cole slaw, roasted pumpkin seeds, cilantro and onions. I had Korean BBQ Pork which is pulled pork with Asian slaw and spicy chili salsa, and BBQ Pork with pulled pork, bacon, cilantro, slaw, and honey chipotle bbq sauce. Dessert was similar to churros, cinnamon chips with whipped cream. We were really impressed at the selection of fresh mex combinations, and enjoyed everything.


Describe your impressions of the service. Was anything exceptionally good (or bad) about the quality of service you received?

Service was fantastic. Our server was cheerful and friendly, and always ready to help.

What do you think of the décor and atmosphere?

Décor is trendy sports bar with a latin beach flavor. There is sand art with flowers in a tequila bottle, for instance. Cute, and great to watch football.

Do you consider this a good value for the money you spent? If no, why not?

Yes, everything is reasonably priced, and you can order a la carte.

This restaurant is best for...
Casual dinner, good food, hanging out with friends and family. Great experience!

Review of SOHO in Vinings


Mom and I dined at SOHO Restaurant in Vinings recently, and had a wonderful time. SOHO is rare find, a hidden gem with an excellent, dynamic chef and delightful ambience. You can visit their website here - SOHO Atlanta

What did you order? How was your food? 

We tried the tapas menu - appetizers paired with wines. These included Pork Milanese with roasted lemon and greens, Spinach and Artichoke Ravioli in a lemon cream, and braised lamb with fried asparagus. Our wines were Dainero (Castiglion del Bosco ’08), Chianti (Fonterutoli Classico ’09), and Vermentino (Antinori, Bolgheri ’10), a white wine which was exquisite. We also we thrilled to try the Chilean Sea Bass and Elk, both of which were very delicious and perfectly cooked by SOHO's experienced and wonderful culinarian, a graduate of CIA, Chef Jeff Ahn. 

Describe your impressions of the service. Was anything exceptionally good (or bad) about the quality of service you received?

Service was impeccable.

What do you think of the décor and atmosphere?

Décor was beautiful and charming. It would be perfect for a romantic dinner as well.
