Editorial Review for Stats – by Jonathan Baker
The Scene
Wedged in the arena side of downtown lies the sports channeling spot developed by the restaurant-mogul Concentrics group. Its man-inspired Table Tap is a pour-your-own-brewski device allowing beer guzzlers to refill table-side. Despite being draped in HD and sports tickers, warm brick walls with wrap-around booths surprisingly help pull off a hidden pub atmosphere. Bathrooms decorated in the style of different decades add to the conversation, and the rooftop bar is not to be missed.
The Food
Stats delightfully mashes up high-end fare with bar staples resulting in an interesting take on comfort food. The sports-fare-meets-tapas philosophy make the appetizer menu sparkle with colorful options. Southern hummus,tuna tataki and spicy grilled cheese wedges with tomato bisque-dip are spot-on bites for sharing among patrons. Masculine-sized steaks and chops anchor the heavy entrees, but expect a heavy price to tag along.

So, I live here in Atlanta and service generally rots no matter where you go; Concentrics Restaurant Group seems to have their finger on what the people here in Atlanta want though. I have been to all but two of their restaurants and had both a decent meal and decent service... but boy was I impressed when I went to STATS their newest concept restaurant. I am a restaurant manager by trade so I am very particular about service, selection and overall atmosphere... here is the lowdown on STATS. When I walked in I was immediately greeted by.. I think Cassie was her name, a bubbly, and... cute hostess who sat my party at a long "tap" table in the bar area. When we were seated, almost immediately our server came to greet us; it was very busy so I expected to wait awhile but didnt have to! Jessica was our server, and service is what she gave us!!! We all ordered drinks, specialty drinks that she explained where "STATS specials" they were AWSOME, and delivered to us quickly. She asked us if we wanted to start with appetizers and if we had any questions... we had a ton because the menu is a little challenging. Jessica answered all of our questions as if she developed the menu herself... I was amazed as to how well she knew her product. She suggested all of our entrees and appetizers all were dead on! She attended to us as if we were the only people in the building, but she had other customers and was hustling around to make sure everyone was taken care of! I have never been so impressed with a server; her manners and attitude made us feel like we were right at home! I even tried to persuade her to come and work for me, but the way she worked made it apparent she was devoted to STATS... I still hope she calls though! Anyways, the food at STATS is good, the atmosphere is great for a sports fan, but the SERVICE we recieved set it apart from all others!!! WOW is all I can say.... that girl needs a raise!
Pros: SERVICE!!!
Cons: Menu and concept need some work

I live near by so I want this area and places like Stats to be successful. So hopefully they will read this and listen. Great food and menu Poor service - need to fire your bartenders; there is no reason why one should wait 10 minutes at an empty bar to get a drink Pricing is out of line with the area. There is no reason to charge $10 for woodford reserve 11 for a hamburger, etc. Change a little bit - and I will visit a lot more and spend more often.
Pros: food
Cons: price and service
