Holeman and Finch Public House

What a fun environment - I've been here for bunch and for the late night burger craving....amazing food, quality service, and a great place. This is the place to go for the best burger in Atlanta - simple, great flavors and mouth watering. I especially loved their Dark and Stormy - which is my drink of choice - dark spiced rum, ginger beer, but they kick it up on the flavor with some spices. Worth it!

I visited for brunch and as I looked around EVERY TABLE had the cheeseburger and fries. It really is good but I highly recommend other items on the menu. The heirloom tomatoes with mayo and toast and the creole shrimp is to die! This place is great if you are looking for real food late night as they are open until 2am!

Holeman & Finch is so much more than just a burger! The menu is packed with incredible options, from safe bets to items that will satisfy the most adventurous eater. Start with a charcuterie board, try some lamb fries (testicles) if you're brave, and finish up with some homemade pasta. It's a fantastic dining experience!

The intimate atmosphere paired with the exclusivity of THIS burger create a unique experience everyone should try! Seriously, their burger is unreal and their fries are the perfect compliment to it. If I could eat here everyday I would, but trying to practice moderation.

Considering the hype, expectations were high, but I left thinking good, not great. Burger is not worth the hassle. This is a night out where you feel like you are working for it (tight quarters, long wait, etc). I also am turned off by fois gras on the menu.

If you watch the Food Network, you've probably seen the "Best _____ I've ever had" show. Well, a few nights ago it was the burger show, and crazy-lady Anne Burrell (Batali's sous chef from Iron Chef...when he's on Iron Chef, and host of "Secrets of a Restaurant Chef") says that the best burger she's ever had is at Holeman & Finch in Atlanta. I could go on about why I think Anne Burrell is crazy (the hair, her annoying lingo that makes Rachael Ray look normal, etc.), but I'll move on.
