Great food, great people!

The Albert is a great place to find friendly faces, a fun atmosphere, and great food. The BBQ is the best I've ever had!

• Pros: the people, the food

great place all around

by rhphillips at Citysearch

I love the menu, it's not too much... and offers just the right type of food to go with the atmosphere. The service doesn't bother me at all, and so far it's always been fine. Fun, nice and attentive. I'm not here cause I think it's a fine dining place, where I would hold the level of service alot higher, so for the envirmonment, the food, the people and the service have been right on par. I loev that it's a family place then morphs into an actual bar at night... and the weekend BBQ is to die for.

• Pros: neighborhood feel, great people, lots of variety

Hate the new menu

by YoYoMa1 at Citysearch

Service can be spotty, and why oh why did they get rid of their old menu? The new menu is 1) way more expensive, and 2) they took out all the old bar favorites. This was a fun neighborhood pub that is trying to become a gastropub. Prediction: old menu returns in a few months when they figure out people don't want to pay $15 for a fish sandwich in a smoky bar.

• Pros: Location, atmosphere
• Cons: NEW MENU

my new neighborhood hangout

by 30307grl at Citysearch

i moved recently to inman park and have quickly scouted out what would be my new favorite neighborhood hangout and this is it! They say the menu is new, and they've done a great job. I had the fried green tomatos and 1/2 chicken, it was perfect! pair that with the chilled red wine my server suggested and my meal was great. My service was great, she kept me engaged and was totally attentive. besides the servers being dressed all in black which was a tad weird, and the lack of a special to tease me with everything was perfect. i very much will be back again!

• Pros: food, atmosphere, service,
• Cons: parking can be difficult, one stall bathroom

A Brand New Menu!

by lottiejen at Citysearch

Hamburgers are great, but I rarely go to a restaurant hoping to order one. I heard the Albert was launching a new menu, so I was excited to go and see what they had to offer. It was awesome! I ordered the Mahi mahi and my husband ordered the flank steak. Both were delicious! I will definitely go again. And for those of you who do enjoy a good restaurant burger....they are top notch. I suggest ordering sides. The green beans and the fried green tomatoes were also delicious. I never thought of the Albert as more than just a bar, but the new menu sets them apart! It's an Inman Park Gem!!!!

Loud and Whack.

by nda5150 at Citysearch

This place could be really good, but it just isn't.

1. The service is THE WORST. I mean it. It doesnt matter how many people are in the place. Unless you have a set of Double D's, good luck getting a drink from the big pirate looking bartender.

2. The place gets packed with people that live in the expensive run of the mill "loft" style apartments across the street. I'm sorry, but those people are lame, bigtime. If you like listening to "Me so Horny" on the jukebox at FULL VOLUME, you'll think it's great.

3. Park at your own risk. You'll get towed to a lot in Zone 3 if you're not careful.

_END

• Pros: Nice. Clean. Close to my house.
• Cons: Slow service, lackadaisical staff, loud idiotic patrons and an even louder, more idiotic jukebox

Good atmosphere, true neighborhood place

by pizgal2 at Citysearch

it is like a bar I loved in Georgetown, true neighborhood feel. good drink selection and friendly local service

Especially like the place on Friday nights. I could make it a regular stop with just a little more upscale food items.

You can relax, chat it up, or grab a quick bite. That is what I love, the feel

Worst service ever

by Sandmeister at Citysearch

One of my girlfriends takes me to The Albert for lunch today. Question how do you screw up a salad? It's a salad green leafy vegetation and assorted veggies! To top it off it took 35 minutes for our server to return with our order. 35 minutes for two salads in a bar that wasn't even busy! Not a very good first impression and they definitely will not get a second effort.

• Pros: Not busy
• Cons: Bad service which is hard to figure out since it was slow.

Disappointment

by Greiger77 at Citysearch

Been here a few times over the past year and quite frankly I've given up hopes of this place ever becoming a mainstay of the Inman Park social scene. From bartenders who serve inept drinks to the inconsistant grub that comes out of the kitchen and the forgetful waitstaff that serves it. The Albert has been a total letdown and clearly an example of too many restaurants in Atlanta and not enough good talent to support them all. I shall not dine here again.

• Pros: park there and go to Zaya
• Cons: it's a total complete waste of space

Very Good

by destro at Citysearch

The Albert has really good mid to upscale bar food with great service and nice decor. Great place to watch some sports, drink some beer (good tap selection) and get a decent sandwich or gyro. it's about $1 or $2 above other bars in the area - but it's about right.... I'll go back...

• Pros: food service decor
• Cons: a tad pricey
