Candlelight Restaurant and Lounge

One of our favorites, with a multiple page menu filled with old-timey cocktails. Every Monday they have “coloring night”, in case you want to color with markers/crayons while you drink.

Somewhat divey, but beloved. Decent southern style food, but where they shine is with their rotating tap list. Really great beers you usually can

Miyamoto

The most popular restaurant according to Yelp in Montavilla. Delicious foods and amazing cocktails. Be prepared for a long wait though. If you don't mind a smaller food menu, and a less fancy atmosphere, you can go to their back lounge called the "Over and Out" where there usually isn't a wait.
