Best Nightlife in East Cobb

"Nikolai’s Roof, which sits atop the Hilton Atlanta, boasts world-class dining: It was the first restaurant in the Southeastern U.S. to receive the coveted Four Star Award from AAA, and has held onto the honor for 27 consecutive years (longer than any other restaurant in Atlanta). The fine dining menu presents modern American cuisine with Russian influences, more than 900 wine options, and signature house-infused vodkas. Swanky sophisticated white-gloved dinner service with panoramic views of the Atlanta skyline is offered Tuesday through Saturday."

"When you think date night, you think Italian, you think French, but how does a bit of Russian flare sound?. Nikolai’s Roof on top of the Hilton in downtown boasts one of the most stunning views of Atlanta’s evergrowing skyline. The menu is ever-changing with the seasons as they source their ingredients from local purveyors, but you can expect only the best from this award-winning Atlanta institution."

"Nikolai’s Roof is the longest active restaurant in Atlanta to receive the AAA Four Diamond award for 27 consecutive years. It boasts a contemporary cuisine with a Russian influence. An example of this is their Braised Beef Tenderloin Piroshki."

"Introduced as part of the popular venue’s new storefront in 2014, The Music Room’s boombox-painted doors have become a favorite place to pose for a quick snap. Since the underground bar and live music venue is usually most active when the sun goes down, your best bet for a people-free shot is to go during the day.

"James Beard Award-winning chef Linton Hopkins' cheeseburger is a thing of beauty in its thoughtful simplicity: Two griddled 4-ounce patties (a house-ground mix of grassfed brisket and chuck, made daily), melty Kraft American cheese, bread-and-butter pickles and shaved red onions are sandwiched between the halves of a fluffy H&F Bread Co. pain de mie bun and served alongside housemade condiments. The phenomenon, which started as a "secret" available by request only after 10 p.m. at Holeman & Finch, now has a full-time place on the menu and has spawned its own restaurant, H&F Burger, at Ponce City Market."

"Said by some to be the best burger on the planet, H&F’s burger is one of the most desirable items in town. At 10pm sharp, the bullhorn goes off announcing ‘burger time’, only 24 burgers are served each evening. Each double patty burger is topped with melting all-American Kraft Singles, garnished with house ketchup and mustard, and sits atop a freshly toasted brioche from H&F Bread Co. next door."

"It’s no surprise the bar that helped begin Atlanta’s cocktail movement years ago would also have a great whiskey, bourbon, and Scotch selection. High-ticket offerings include a Chivas regal 25-year and Elijah Craig single barrel 18-year."

"Head Downtown to the Twelve Centennial Park Hotel and discover one of the swankiest steak and seafood restaurants in town. This home of juicy steaks and crisp fries might not be th..."

"Oglethorpe Unviersity’s Museum of Art is another great space to visit if you’re looking for a museum on campus!. OUMA is the only small liberal arts university in the Southeast that shows nationally and internationally recognized exhibitions. Opened in 1993, this museum covers 7,000 square feet, leaving tons of space for many works of art."

"OUMA is the only small liberal arts university museum in the Southeast that regularly shows nationally and internationally recognized exhibitions. Although small, the historic space makes every exhibition mighty. The collection includes more than 420 objects spanning seven centuries!"

"7,000 square foot museum that presents three major and several smaller exhibitions each year, featuring art work which is international, representational, figurative, and spiritual in nature."

"The Museum of Contemporary Art, Georgia (MOCA GA), focuses on works by artists with strong links to the region. Since its opening in 2002, the museum has developed a strong reputation for the exhibition of contemporary art of the highest quality, establishing itself as one of the leading visual arts galleries Georgia. MOCA GA usually holds around ten dynamic and challenging temporary exhibitions per year by Georgia-based and international artists."

"If you’re a lover of the contemporary art, you have to check Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia!. This museum houses pieces from local artists in Georgia, to artists from around the world. It was founded in 2000 and has grown from 250 works by 110 Georgia artists to now 1,300 works of art."

"However, if you would like to find some simple, fun things to do in Atlanta for kids exclusively (more or less), then your two best options are the Children’s Museum of Atlanta, recommended for kids between the ages of 2 and 8, and the Center for Puppetry Arts. The Children’s Museum has its own troupe of professional actors called the Imaginators, who develop entertaining hands-on activities for kids, such as little musicals and other activities that children can participate in and learn while playing."

"Come for the museum collection of more than 200 puppets from around the world, stay for top-notch performances like Beauty and the Beast or Old MacDonald’s Farm. The museum-only admission gives access to a self-guided tour of iconic Jim Henson puppets, but it’s best to reserve performance tickets in advance."

"Here’s what one reviewer says about Chai Peking Chinese Restaurant: “My food, Hunan Beef, was good. Although it was not shockingly good, other than its price, it was good. I spent $16 something on a regular Hunan Beef."

"Simply put, this tasty nook predominantly serves up amazing cakes at several Atlanta locations— if you’re really hooked, you can order online!. To each their own, but the Orange Layer Cake is off the hook and flavored with orange juice to mimic a creamsicle-sherbet taste. Peach Pound Cake screams Georgia making it another top pick, and the Cookies n’ Cream flavor melts in your mouth."

"I asked my fantastic food blogging buddies at the Atlanta Food Bloggers’ Society (www.atlantafoodbloggersociety.com ) about their favorite place to get a birthday cake and the overwhelming favorite is Piece Of Cake. Choose from Hummingbird Cake (contains no actual hummingbirds), Red Velvet, Strawberry and so much more. www.pieceofcakeinc.com"

"Piece of Cake’s specialty resides in its custom cakes (duh). Roughly 25 flavors are available at any time, and other confectionaries available include cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and more."

"Vegans and vegetarians sporting a serious sweet tooth, rejoice: Dulce Vegan’s here for you. This quaint Kirkwood cafe (open Tuesday through Sunday) has a rotating, seasonal menu of breakfast pastries, fresh sandwiches, and healthy sides like tabbouleh and house-made soups. But back to the sweet stuff: this is a one-stop shop for those looking for vegan cakes in specialty flavors like lemon raspberry, Mexican chocolate, and orange cardamom."
