Best KPortal Reviews
My son and I stopped for lunch. This has a cool, and a little macabre decor. But, I enjoy that stuff. It is a bit different in expectations of attendance of the staff. But, they state that right in the menu, it make take a few minutes, just relax, and if that bothers you, it probably isn't the place for you. For us, it was all good as we could just chat.
The food was pretty darn good. Granted, we only had burgers, but it was one of the better burgers either of us have had. The staff was friendly, and the food came out expeditiously. I would recommend this bar and grill to anyone. Just one point, it is 21 and over, so leave the young ones at home.
Had a great time at The Vortex with fantastic staff and service. Loved the Pickle Rick burger & tots. Co-workers enjoyed hell & boring burgers. All happy members of the clean plate club. Good food, reasonable bill. Highly recommend a visit!
Finally had the opportunity and made it to the Vortex L5P - only been trying since 1996! Have been looking forward to eating here for years. Saturday around 8ish. Restaurant atmosphere is a lot of fun and well - awesome. Was hopping to take in the full Vortex experience and sit in the main downstairs dining area but was told by staff tables are full (saw few empty tables). Which was a bummer but understandable. We were sat quickly. Sat in upstairs patio area. Had a nice view of L5P.
The server took our order for food and drinks. Apps came out fairly quick. Burgers took some time to come out. Server came to the table once and was not very attentive. Drinks were empty. Went to downstairs bar to reorder drinks as our server was a no show. My burger and tots were cold and the others food was lukewarm. My fault - didn’t say anything to the server. The burgers were fine - definitely not the best burger around.
Service and bar tender at downstairs bar was great!
Overall disappointed. Waited all this time and ended up with cold food and service that was worse.
From the reviews this sounds like a one off and most people have a great experience.
Loved the whole vortex vibe and the food was delicious! I got the blue shroom burger and it was cooked to perfection and super tasty. I didn’t get any of the ridiculous huge burgers as I would have never finished it. If you love mushrooms and blue cheese try my burger! Cool neighborhood
We had such a great time with my friend who’s visiting us from Mexico City. Perfect place to have such delicious hamburgers! Yummy ????
Here we have it, probably the best burger I've had since moving to Atlanta nearly two years ago. Their BBQ Bacon Mac n Cheese burger is nothing short of astounding and they have CHEESE CURDS! Plus the decor on point!
The Vortex Bar & Grill in Atlanta is an iconic and vibrant spot that offers delicious burgers and a wide selection of beers. With its unique atmosphere and quirky decor, it's the perfect place to enjoy a casual meal with friends or family - definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
We saw this restaurant the last time we visited Little Five Points and decided to try it for lunch today. A shared appetizer, two sandwich entrees, a shared dessert, and two soft drinks were just under $60. We did not have any drinks from the bar, but it their menu had a few tasty options, and the ladies behind us were loving their shots!!
We had no wait and sat upstairs. Our waiter was amazing! Friendly, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. We started with a 1/2 order of Barracho Nachos. They hit the spot as a munchable while we perused the menu. My husband ordered the Original burger with tots, and I had the Grilled Cheesy MOFO (minus the pepper jack) with tomato soup. My husband enjoyed his burger. My sandwich was delicious! The soup didn't really accompany the sandwich the way I wanted. It's a good soup, it just wasn't as tomato flavored as I prefer with my cheesy sandwich. We finished with the funnel cake fries, which were super fresh and yummy! We can't wait to visit again.
