"For traditional Southern food—fried chicken, ham steak, and turkey with dressing—insiders head to Colonnade, a local institution since 1927 and a magnet for gay men and the elderly." Full review

"“Cheap” tabs, “seriously high-octane potables” and an experience that’s “like nothing else in Atlanta.”" Full review

"Clubbers, bouffant-bearing ladies, and gay seniors make up a portion of the eclectic clientele. Old-fashioned faves like lima beans, okra, and fried chicken prevail."
