Hilton Hotel staple serves Pacific Rim dishes in a lively space with kitschy, tropical-themed decor.
"Look for $7 Mai Tai every Thursday from this downtown Atlanta institution, along with the occasional happy hour deal throughout the week. Live music takes place on Tuesday evenings now." - Eater Staff, Henna Bakshi
"Few hotel restaurants in Atlanta are as iconic as Trader Vic’s, located on the bottom floor of the Hilton Downtown. The bar menu here features tiki cocktails created by legendary barman and restaurateur Vic Bergeron, including the Mai Tai, Zombie, and the frozen Peachtree Punch (found only in Atlanta). Dine on everything from crab rangoon and salt and pepper calamari to kung pao chicken, volcano shrimp, and rack of lamb served with curry vegetable Singapore noodles." - Missy Frederick, Beth McKibben

"Few restaurants in Atlanta give diners of today a window into the past quite like Trader Vic’s. Opened in 1976 in the basement of the Hilton Atlanta Downtown, the interior hasn’t changed in over four decades. The Mai Tai cocktails still draw a crowd after all these years. The restaurant is often full of tourists and Atlanta residents seeking an infusion of Polynesian pop culture paired with strong tiki drinks. Fun fact: Atlanta is home to one of two Trader Vic’s remaining in the United States, and the only one still associated with Hilton hotels." - Beth McKibben
"Atlanta is home to one of two Trader Vic’s outposts remaining in the United States, and the only location still associated with Hilton Hotels. This classic Atlanta restaurant offers half-off Mai Tai cocktails and live music on Thursday nights, too. Trader Vic’s is often full of both tourists and Atlanta residents seeking a vintage, Polynesian pop culture infusion paired with extremely strong tiki drinks. Reservations encouraged." - Eater Staff
