Tesserae - Review - Buckhead - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"While Tesserae in Thompson hotel is no longer a members-only private club, the Buckhead rooftop bar maintains its air of exclusivity (and its normal celebrity and socialite crowd) with tight capacity restrictions, so weekend reservations are key. Views stretch from Buckhead to Downtown Atlanta, and a large patio area filled with cozy couches and fire pit troughs provide the perfect area to sip on the appropriately named and refreshing Rooftop Spritz. Inside houses the bar and plenty of tables, which are usually full of a mix of hotel guests and young, see-and-be-seen types who try their best to hold conversations over the clubby hits pumping through the speakers. You're here for the better-than-average drinks, views, and people watching, but if hunger calls, get the tasty lobster roll overflowing with an infinite amount of fried onion straws." - Juli Horsford
