What People Are Saying About Pittypat's Porch

The Scene – More Hollywood recreation than authentic Southern, this downtown mainstay caters to a mostly un-Southern convention crowd. Hostesses don antebellum dress; tuxedo-clad servers welcome diners to the restaurant and to Atlanta. Inside, a line of comfy rocking chairs encourages diners to sit for a spell, while farm and kitchen implements decorating the walls create a rustic feel. – – The Food – Based on the recipes of Scarlett O'Hara's Aunt Pittypat, the menu offers dishes like Twelve Oaks BBQ Ribs and Rhett's Mixed Grill. Portions are large and entree prices…

The decor's upscale Cracker Barrel but the comparison stops there.
Our waiter was in-attentive & aloof. Appetizers were NOT good. Blackeyed pea cakes were more like unseasoned pond sludge breaded & fried.
I ordered roasted venison. The cut was tough & tastless, covered in what was called a demiglace. NOT A GOOD CHOICE. My meal came with a salad (I found later it should have been a trip to the salad bar). The waiter brought salads to the table and said "I put ranch on it, I hope that's ok" turned and left. The salad consisted of canned chichen salad, canned three bean salad, celery, and lots of ranch dressing.
Please never make the same mistake we made. Stay away!
The Details on Pittypat's Porch
What to Drink:
For a true Southern drink try Pittypat's mint julep. Made with crushed ice, Kentucky bourbon and lots of mint. The mint julep isn't served in a traditional silver cup, but it does come in a signature Pittypat's glass.
The Extras:
The best part of the whole experience is the wall-mounted collection of newspaper clippings. Excerpts from various episodes in the city's history, plus GWTW premiere shots of Mr. and Mrs. Gable.
Parking:
Give the high-priced parking charge a miss. Take MARTA to the Peachtree Center Station (N1).
