The Good, The Bad, The Ugly: Location, Food, Manager – After an hour of waiting and watching people around us sit down, eat, and leave, we finally recieved our cold food. Our drinks were never refilled until asked to do so, and we waited around for over another hour to simply request the check. When asked to speak with a manager he refused to come to the table and speak with us. He claimed he was too busy to even acknowledge us and even hear us out. Finally, after we literally searched the restaurant for the manager he claim... read more

avoid if at all ;possible – I went by myself for what should have a been a nice quick meal. Like the reviewers below the service I must concur is awful . I started my meal asking for reccomendations, my waiter couldnt speak English. I recognize that not everyone speaks English however what one reccomends isnt something that shouldnt be understood by the person serving me. I was never asked how my meal was , I was never given a refill on water and my server was no where to be found. I asked another server for water and appaer... read more

Terrible!!! – I went there while on business here and it was a terrible experience!!! I had fish tacos that were small and poorly seasoned and my husband's chicken burrito was just as bad! Skimpy cheese and salsa didn't help! Our waiter had no idea what he was doing..maybe he was new. I think sometimes places like think they don't have to worry about quality because they cater to tourists who won't be returning anyway. The only good thing I can say about it is the patio was nice. My money would have been better spent in the ... read more

Absolutely Horrible Service – Well, let's start with the good stuff - the food. I felt that the food was above average. Creative Mexican American fusion that's different than what you'll find at your normal chain restaurants. Not only different, but it tasted great as well. That, however, doesn't excuse the absolutely horrendous service. My wife and I waited 15 minutes from seating before we met our waiter. We then waited another 10 minutes for drinks. Finally, another 25 minutes after that, they brought out our entrees and ... read more

Average food, poor service, great balcony – The balcony is great. I arrived early on a Thursday evening and was seated promptly. The place was not crowded, with staff outnumbering customers. Most of the staff were sitting at the bar or at tables along the wall. The food is average, and the service was terrible. My water and drink glass were empty long before I finished my meal, and they both remained empty during the rest of my visit. My waiter was one of the many waitstaff sitting along the wall, but he never made a trip to... read more

Downtown ATL's Best New Balcony View Over P'tree! Good Mexican-Fusion! – What was once the old location of Planet Hollywood, at the corner P'tree & Andrew Young International, is now a multi-level of new dining options. And Jalepeno Charlie's does not disappoint. It's on the second leverl of this building, with a great new balcony overlooking Peachtree. Just what we needed to kick-off the return to DT, and new residents. The menu is billed as Mexican-Fusion. After starting with a couple of rounds of very good margerita's and... read more
