"Carolina Panthers quarterback and Atlanta native Cam Newton opened this swanky Castleberry Hill cigar bar and restaurant. It features a dining room and bar, a humidor, a glass-enclosed wine room, and a speakeasy-like VIP lounge located behind moving bookshelves. The restaurant and bar offer dinner and cocktails starting at 5 p.m. and brunch on Sundays. Expect to feast on dishes like crispy sesame shrimp, a wild rice vegetable bowl, lamb chops, and lobster tails. There is live jazz music on select nights. Dress code." - Beth McKibben, Eater Staff

"Celebrity: Cam Newton There’s a lot going on at Castleberry Hill’s Fellaship. You’ll notice a stylish bar, a cigar room, a hotel-inspired area with a book wall, and a members-only club upstairs. But c’mon, would you really expect anything less from eccentric NFL quarterback Cam Newton (who also owns Smokey Stallion)? Somehow, though, food makes it all come together. The interesting spins on everyday wings (the 404 sauce’s subtle heat is amazing) and grilled salmon (a respectable cut sits atop a bed of flavorful wild rice, carrots and broccoli) prove to be some of the best dining decisions we’ve made recently. Couple all of that with stellar cocktails and the occasional star sighting (Wait, is that Judge Mathis?) and we see why this place stays packed." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams

"Black Restaurant Week kicks off Friday, September 4, in Atlanta, and more than 50 area restaurants are expected to participate in the annual event, including Fellaship Cigar Lounge." - Beth McKibben

"Carolina Panthers quarterback and Atlanta native Cam Newton swings open the doors to his swanky Castleberry Hill cigar bar Fellaship Friday, May 3. The grand opening begins at 3 p.m. on Friday and continues through the weekend, culminating in a Cinco de Mayo celebration on Sunday, according to the Facebook page. Fellaship, billed as an 'exclusive intimate lounge and restaurant,' is located just a few blocks from the Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Centennial Olympic Park Drive. It features a dining room and bar, a mezzanine level, a glass-enclosed wine room, and a speakeasy-like VIP lounge located behind moving bookshelves. In addition to the many fine cigars to smoke from the humidor and the luxurious surroundings in the 4,600-square-foot club, Fellaship plans to also offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner." - Beth McKibben
