I wish there was a negative star.
This could be a cool spot, but it fails miserably on every level. I think I went the same night as another review here, and paid $10 to see the same band that never played.
The band was supposed to be first, but I arrived to see an amazing jazz trio. I didn't mind at all.
I go to order a drink...and being a bar manager, I quickly realize the girl has clearly never mixed a drink before that night. How do you screw up a Sailor Jerry and ginger? For starters, by not having ginger ale. She tried to improvise unsuccessfully and she was nice so I tipped well anyway....
Sound check for what ended up being the second band was dreadful. Never seen such a circus.
Work quickly spread through the crowd that they double booked promoters, and no bands were getting paid.
Our friends decided not to play such an unprofessional venue, so they started moving out equipment. They came back to find the club telling them they couldn't come back in to get the rest...but that didn't last long.
I never ordered a second drink....couldn't think of anything she couldn't screw up.
After finding the door guy and asking for a refund, he said the promoter had it, but he didn't know who that was. After being pointed to the manager, we asked him and were turned down. I didn't hear my friend's convo with him so I don't know exactly it was put.
We gladly left and headed for Midway, and never to return to the Asylum.
Came in on a Sunday night for an Underground Syndicate party. The space itself was okay, with a roomy dancefloor, but the overall layout was a bit awkward.
Not sure I'll be back around, though. A PBR was $4.
Where the $#@& else in ATL do you pay $4 for a PBR? And in EAV of all places? Err... no.
What a complete waste of space. Â East Atlanta has so much more to offer than this trash. Â The food was either bland or ill-prepared and the service was god awful at best. Â I would give this dive zero stars if I had the choice. Â
The food either took too long to cook or it tasted absolutely horrible. Â We stepped in during a relatively slow period of the day and it still took them almost 45 minutes to bring our food out. Â The food was edible, if you're used to eating food from a can (or prison). Â Our servers were not informed about the options available and were generally not very helpful when it came to making decisions. Â Sure the menu has a lot to offer, but I doubt any of it is good if they can't even get a burger and fries right. Â At least they were courteous enough to refill my water whenever it was empty. Â If you want good bar food and good service then please go across the street to Midway. Â Midway's food (especially their wings) is much better. Â
The bar is the saving grace of this dive. Â The bar tenders were alert and ready to make their tips. Â Unfortunately, their drinks are very overpriced for bottom shelf drinks. Â There is that and the fact that the drinks tasted like ice and whatever mixer you had with your alcohol... Â You wanted a Jack & Coke? Â No, here's a watered down coca cola. Â I swear I saw my bartenders (read, bartenders plural) give me a half second pour of alcohol. Â Such a rip off. Â I make it a point to tip my bartenders well after my first drink to make sure they give me good service. Â I guess that means nothing to these fools. Â
There's also the fact that the security is extremely unprofessional. Â I had a friend who was accosted by some bar staff a couple of weeks ago. Â Apparently there was some guy who was mugging people and my friend "fit this dude's description". Â Instead of the regular questioning that you'd see out of any other establishment, my friend was harassed and grabbed as if you was being mugged. Â No lies, he felt as if four random clothed guys (no 'security tags or anything) ran up to him and started circling him as if they were about to jump him. Â
Extremely unprofessional and entirely too expensive. Â Dont' waste your time at this dump. Â If you like bar food then go to the Earl or Midway; if you like obnoxiously loud dubstep and other EDM genres then go to the Graveyard or find another spot in Midtown. Â
Again: Â DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY HERE. Â THERE IS LATE NIGHT FUN TO BE HAD SOMEWHERE ELSE. Â
I've had more fun at a  Chuck-e-Cheese in Conyers than this poor excuse for a club.  That is all
This place is great. The bartenders are awesome, they know what I like after only having been there a couple times. Food is decent, wings are great. I guess they improved their sound and lighting because when I went it was awesome. I saw Zeds Dead a couple weeks ago and they tore it up! And I think there is a free comedy show on mondays I will have to check out.
Review Source:What a dump. I cannot comment on the restaurant as it was not open and I saw no signs that it ever way open to be honest. The bar side was dark and drab. Very dirty overall. The entertainment sufferent from HORRIBLE sound system and lighting was almost non existant. I do not see this place staying open very long.
Review Source:I wish I could give this place no stars at all. I've been twice...once to eat and once to the bar side. Horrible on both accounts. The food was either terrible or tasteless. The service was horrible. We sat outside and it smelled like raw sewage. Not very appetizing.
As far as the bar side, it was filthy. I mean bars are often not the cleanest places but this was skanky at best. The bathrooms are gross. Although the bartenders are nice, the drinks are weak and in tiny glasses. UGH.
I had high hopes for the newest place in our neighborhood but they'd have to pay me to go back again and even then I'd have to give it a LOT of consideration. Can't wait for it to close and something awesome to go in!
