Taverna Plaka Atlanta

Overall this place is a good time and allows guests to choose their experience - indoor dining offers more music, dancing, and vibrant energy. Outdoor dining is more relaxed with a large tree and half covered patio where the music from inside gently wafts outdoors and the dancers (on the weekend) flow between both areas. There’s is heating on the patio as well so cooler weather can definitely be enjoyed outdoors. They do their best to make guests feel noticed on special occasions - graduates, birthdays, promotions get announced by the DJ and staff do a great job celebrating too. Between the napkin tossing and the vibrant atmosphere, everyone has a good time. Food is yummy - seafood is fresh (we had the mussels and the cream sauce was a great pairing) and the salads are large portions great for sharing. The drinks are delicious! We had lemon drop martinis and a mango martini (house specialty) and they were both balanced and flavorful. I could’ve had ten of them! The other dishes we had were the falafels (flavorful falafels but the tahini dipping sauce was incredibly salty), chicken Parmesan (crisp and well fried chicken with capellini tossed in a mild but well seasoned tomato sauce), and the Classic Gyro (this comes served to be eaten by building your own mini gyros and is great for sharing as well. To celebrate a special occasion or dance the night away with good drinks, this place is a great choice!
