Dantanna's Surf, Turf and Turf, Atlanta GA - August 4

Rating - 7.8

The place was described by the doorman as "upscale" and he said I would like it if I smoked stogies--I do, but its only 1 or 2 times.

When we arrived the dining room was pretty full....and full of smoke. I guess you can smoke in restaurants in Hotlanta---YUCK. We decided to sit outside, and the hostess asked "where y'all from" (because it was hot and humid). It was not that bad and they had flat screens all over the patio. It was warm, but there was fan blowing and not too bad....until the fan started to blow the smoke.

We arrived around 7:30 and the patio was empty. Service from Haleigh was good in the beginning, but as it became more crowded the service suffered.

Big beer and wine menue, smaller dinner selection. I had the burger and it was exceptional. Great flavor from a basic burger, and excellent slightly spicy fries. Good beers.

Don't think I would return due to the smoke.

pork chop 22.00 (Tom loved this)
(2) 420 (local beer) drafts 9.00
Bacon Cheddar burger 10.50
Tucher 7.50 (ok Hef beer)
Paulander 7.25 (good Hef beer)

Total - 60.75 (actually a great value for the quality of the food, especially if you were a smoker)
