Editorial Review for The Vortex – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Wonderfully subterranean and slightly sinister, this popular Little Five burger joint's large dark rooms and long bar are stocked with retro ads, crazy knick-knacks, and skeletons on motorcycles. Burgers are the big draw: Choose from the Yokohama Mama to the Coronary Bypass, but standards like a classic patty melt or a bacon cheeseburger are the best bets. If red meat isn't your thing, try the turkey reuben or a top-notch veggie burger.

This Vortex is better than the one in midtown, but that's not saying much. The food is actually pretty tasty. The wait is too long. It must be their trademark to have rude servers.
Pros: food has potential to be good
Cons: why waste your money when there are better places with nicer servers?

This ain't your daddy's Cheers bar. The Vortex is attitude on steriods. As you walk in the door ...of a skull! You hear the driving beats of Jimi, Janice, and Nirvana oh yes and Marvin. Don't get it twisted, the atmosphere is both eclectic and electric. In the words of Nirvana, " Come as you are", you will be greeted with a smile and a great black and tan. The menu contains the best burgers and fries. Ranging from a blue cheese burger to a avacado and perschutto cheese burger, to your plain ole burger...burger. Good times , good fun good music. Drinking is for the HARDCORE, rookies need not apply. Located in Little 5 points , it is Marta accesible with a cab station across the street for you drunks and an amalgamation of quaint shops in the area. They dont close it starts at eleven and closes at I dont know. Heck I want to go now and it's 8am. Yeah , I need help but I love this place
Pros: Atmosphere
Cons: None
