Description: TWO urban licks has been heating up the Atlanta restaurant scene with its “Fiery American Cooking” since opening in the fall of 2004, making it one of the city’s busiest restaurants on a nightly basis. The scene features “Fiery American Cooking” prepared in a magnificent nine-foot, wood pit rotisserie in the dining area and live blues nightly. TWO has garnered an abundance of local and national accolades including Conde Nast Traveler’s “Hot List”, Bon Appetit’s “Hot 50 Tables” and one of Rachael Ray’s “favorite restaurants” in the country as told to InStyle Magazine. Nominated year after year as Best Restaurant Scene and Best Place to Take an Out of Towner, it is no wonder that guests keep coming back for more.

It was very smokey in the restaurant. My hair still smells awful and I will need to get my dressed cleaned ASAP to get the smell out. The tables are crammed in so tight areas. Salmon chips were amazing. Salad had too much dressing, but scallops were good. Service was great. I will not go back though.

This spot is so up to date with it's decor. It's very industrial-chic. The live jazz is a really great touch. Make reservations or you will be sitting at the bar.

The salmon chips and mussels were awesome and very reasonable for the typical Atlanta (so called upscale) restaurant. We got out of the with 3 delicious appetizers, a beer and a mixed drink for 53$..... Not bad for good food in Atlanta!

I recently had the opportunity to dine at Two Urban Licks while in Atlanta on business, and I can say with certainty that it was one of the most unique dining experiences I've ever had. LOCATION 2UL is definitely a bit off the beaten path, but yet is still fairly easily accessible from the city. Bring your GPS, however, because... More

Accompanied several business companions to Two Urban on the advice of a local. What a cool place in an old warehouse in Mid Town Atlanta. The appetizers were all I needed for a great meal. The Lamb Ribs were outstanding. As big as the place seemed, our dinner was intimate and not disturbed by a lot of ambient noise. This... More

Two Urban Licks is the best done warehouse restaurant I have ever seen. The dark colors make it seem warm. There is a separate bar area and in the middle of the restaurant area is a large wood grill and very popular "bar" seating area. There are also booths and an outdoor seating area. They have some great appetizers including... More

Go once because it is unique and the presentation is good. Beautiful setting but expensive and not out-of-this-world good. This is a trendy place, so be prepared for a crowd at the valet-only parking. The watermelon salad was delcious, and almost worth the wait. The oysters were overly fried but good as well.

This place is awesome. Kegs of wine and such a knowledgeable staff. GREAT food. The building and décor are awesome. When you valet your car, the money goes to charity. A wonderful experience for all of the senses!

We are very happy to enjoy the Atlantans food scene but when a restaurant really stands out its exciting. TWO is in the Poncey Highland area - edgy for us suburbanites which adds to the fun. The American dishes offer sophistication but our favorite experience centered around their wall of wine. Kegs stretch to the 35' ceiling and pours come... More
