"Whether for karaoke parties, live DJ sets, or weekend Soul Brunch, every visit to Virgil’s feels like a party for all ages—even though it’s in Tech territory, it’s never swarming with yellow jackets. Palm trees in the outdoor space, strong cocktails that remind you of vacation, and pulsating music transform this normally uneventful West Midtown strip into a beachside hotspot. Order a couple rounds of their dangerously good Geecheerita (a house margarita made with Hennessy and Grand Marnier) and maybe you’ll hear the seashore, too. If nothing else you’ll be hype for karaoke. The lowcountry menu is full of highly-seasoned flavor, but we tend to gravitate to the creamy she crab soup and fried wings each time." - demarco williams, juli horsford, nina reeder
