***Disclaimer:
My
actual
rating
is
4/5.
The
only
reason
I
am
giving
it
a
because
of
our
server
Antionette
who
was
beyond
amazing.
***
After
4
months
of
advance
booking,
I
finally
had
a
chance
to
celebrate
my
first
anniversary
at
the
coveted
OG
revolving
restaurant,
Polaris
(on
the
top
floor
of
Hyatt
Regency
in
Downtown
Atlanta)
Here
is
the
summary
of
my
experience
and
why
am
I
giving
it
a
5-star
even
though
I
was
not
mesmerized
by
it.
---
Few
things:
---
This
place
is
not
open
on
Sunday,
Monday,
and
Tuesday
so
make
sure
you
take
that
into
account
---
Make
sure
you
make
a
reservation
2-3
months
in
advance
because
you
will
not
get
a
reservation
most
likely
even
a
month
in
advance
as
this
place
is
always
booked
---
Now
that
you
have
reserved
the
place,
please
make
sure
that
you
do
not
reach
here
before
30
minutes
of
your
reservation
unless
you
want
to
pay
for
valet
parking.
The
reason
is
that
they
do
not
let
you
upstairs
10
minutes
before
your
reserved
time
and
they
validate
your
parking
for
3
hours
from
the
time
you
reach
there.
So
unless
you
want
to
be
in
a
rush,
make
sure
you
a
just
a
little
earlier
than
your
reserved
time.
---
When
I
visited
the
place,
there
were
NO
chicken
dishes.
So
if
you
are
allergic
to
fish
and
do
not
eat
beef,
you
will
have
to
be
content
with
limited
vegetarian
dish
:(
Now
coming
to
my
experience:
--
Ambiance
4/5:
Please
hear
me
out.
This
place
has
an
amazing
decor
and
ambiance.
There
is
a
live
chef
that
you
can
see
working
on
your
dishes.
The
reason
I
gave
it
a
4/5
rating
is
because
I
missed
the
USP
of
this
place.
The
revolving
restaurant
has
a
slow
movement
and
you
truly
do
not
witness
it
unless
you
are
making
a
hyperlapse
video.
Plus
this
place
is
now
surrounded
by
taller
buildings
so
the
view
is
kind
of
hidden
and
scattered
which
leaves
you
wanting
for
more.
If
this
was
just
a
regular
restaurant,
I
would
give
it
a
5
for
decor
but
since
it
is
a
revolving
rooftop
and
I
kind
of
didn't
find
it
that
way
hence
giving
it
a
4/5

Service
6/5:
Our
server
Antionette
was
beyond
amazing.
She
made
sure
that
we
were
comfortable,
brought
out
helpful
suggestions,
and
even
took
our
pictures
with
ideas
on
the
way
we
should
pose.
She
even
complemented
us
with
a
free
dessert
for
our
anniversary.
Also,
the
chef
gave
us
complimentary
bread
just
because
he
did
not
like
the
presentation
which
was
a
pleasant
surprise!
She
would
be
a
major
reason
for
us
to
be
back
:)

Food
4/5:
The
food
for
me
was
a
mixed
bag
and
I
definitely
want
to
highlight
the
absence
of
chicken
dishes
from
the
menu.
We
started
with
the
drinks:
Drinks:
a)
Sober
Mo
-
A
hibiscus
mocktail
that
was
not
my
favorite
as
I
am
not
a
fan
of
hibiscus.
Also,
it
was
very
sweet.
b)
The
Dauntless:
This
is
a
pineapple-based
mocktail
that
we
both
liked.
Shareable
plates:
a)
Bread
is
good
cheddar
+
herb
Sourdough:
The
bread
was
soft
and
fresh
and
the
side
of
herb
dip
with
fresh
butter
with
sea
salt
went
well
with
it
(the
butter
tasted
like
ghee
to
me).
In
addition
to
this,
the
chef
gave
us
complimentary
bread
just
because
he
did
not
like
the
presentation
which
was
a
pleasant
surprise!
b)
Pistachio-crusted
GA
quail
breast:
My
wife
loved
it
and
completely
devoured
it.
Main
Course:
a)
Roasted
Bone-in
Monkfish:
My
wife
did
not
like
it.
It
was
spicy
(listen
to
your
server
when
they
tell
you
this
:)
).
I
was
not
a
fan
of
the
gravy
either.
So
if
you
like
monkfish
and
spicy
food,
try
it
on
your
own
accord.
We
didn't
even
like
the
Japanese
eggplant
in
it
b)
Lentil
Falafel
+
Spiced
Couscous:
This
one
is
only
for
the
brave
who
loves
couscous.
We
only
liked
the
lentil
falafel
was
great
and
finished
it
quickly.
Recommended
from
my
side.
Dessert:
a)
The
Polaris
blue
dome:
We
went
for
the
famous
dome.
Make
sure
you
have
some
space
for
this
because
we
loved
this.
The
dessert
was
delicious
and
instragrammable
---
Value
for
money
5/5:The
bill
here
is
not
going
to
be
light
on
the
wallet
but
given
the
overall
service
and
experience,
we
were
happy
with
the
overall
value
for
money
