Apt4B

With a DJ booth setup near the entrance and a treasure trove of vinyl R&B and Hip-Hop throwbacks on display at this Buckhead hotspot, you know you’re in for a good time.

Apt 4B also brings the flavor with Caribbean and Georgia soul food fusions, including their oxtail hummus, tamarind glazed short rib and crispy, fried whole snapper with spicy pikliz. But some items like the Island Seafood Curry, where a halved lobster tail swims in a light coconut-madras curry broth, feel like a well-timed record scratch—it works well enough, but we don’t have to hear it again.

Since an average meal here will likely run you a couple hundred dollars, it's good to note that drink prices can also climb rapidly if you unwittingly agree to upgrade your cocktail. So, unless you're with your sponsor of the moment, Happy Hour (with $10 drink specials) is a solid time to try out Apt 4B. And as the evening goes on, you'll be joined by entertainment industry locals on their migratory rotation of hotspots, scene seekers, and out-of-towners whose cousins told them to come.
