Don't Bother
The view is phenomenal, but that is the only positive thing I can say. Service is SSSLLLLOOOWWWWW and our waiter could not be understood as his accent was very heavy. For the prices we were paying I expected seamless, high-end service. They forgot my son's vegetables and I had to ask for a soup spoon for my soup and a steak knife for my steak, not to mention drawn butter for my lobster! At least offer me regular water or sparkling before you sneak an extra charge in...rolls were stale....steak and lobster were tiny and overpriced....my son's chicken fingers were better! Decor is very old, greasy businessmanlike....Tomato soup could have been Campbell's.....will not go again....rather spend my money at Sugo....now, that is an awesome restaurant, and it is just around the corner from us!

Nothing but a View
Horrible experience!
We sat in the bar/lounge area and waited ~45 minutes for a server to greet us after sitting down. When we wanted refills or the bill she was nowhere to be found. The food was not good. The menu selection is small, over-priced, they were completely out of deserts, and many of the drinks were pre-mixed. Our bill was $92 for 4 drinks and 2 appetizers and our server added an 18% gratuity for a party of 4! The atmosphere is very old and the bathrooms were dirty. Also, our parking pass was improperly validated so we still had to pay to leave the deck.
I thought they might try to change their image or renovate after being closed from the tornado damage in 2008. I was wrong. You pay for a great view but get nothing to compliment it. The Sun Dial failed to stand up to any expectations one might have for a restaurant so widely known around Atlanta.

most disappointed dining experience
Sunday brunch
One of us had a "pecan-glazed chicken /peach salad" with some type of vinegarette dressing.... the chicken had a slight pecan taste, the peaches were rock hard & otherwise the salad was completely bland.
I had the eggs benedict which had an odd tasting, weirdly cured Canadian bacon with a fried green tomato on bottom that just didn't taste right.
The dessert was good & juices were okay,
but it was overall the most disappointing dining experiences that I can remember.... I am sure there was something worse, but I don't remember.
We would have been off @ the waffle house.

Great Meal with a Spectacular View!
The view at the Sun Dial restaurant is splendid. The food always taste great. Its a great place to eat with the kids on a special night out. Its also a great location to take your wife on a nice evening out. We have been several times and we have never been disappointed. The food is very good, but can find restaurants with better food. But the food combined with the fantastic view cannot be beat.

Great ambiance, and the bar area in the upper level is a great place to mingle with friends.
Pros: View, Ambiance
Cons: Pricey

one of a kind
I am always satisfied whenever I visit this place. I am always looking forward to a sumptuous treat when I think of visiting this restaurant, and I am never disappointed. They are very consistent when it comes to delivering excellent food choices and high-quality service. Truly one of a kind.

Impeccable View
After toiling over what rating to give the Sundial, I decided to go with 3 stars. Given the spectacular view and great service, I would normally say that it deserves 4 stars, but given the high price, I decided to go with 3 stars. Its definitely worth the trip though and I would encourage you to visit...just get a drink (great wine selection) though, and skip the food.

great view!
The best view in town! This would be a perfect valentine's day destination! It is especially wonderful at sunset, and I can't wait to see it remodeled! The food is great, and the cheesecake is a perfect end to a picturesque meal!

Great view...
The best part about this resturant is the view. Atlanta has one of the most beautiful skylines. However, the food is VERY over priced for what it is. It's not bad by any stretch, but is just so, mediocre.
I think there are much better places in Atlanta, however, the view is something out of towners would definately appreciate if they don't get a sour taste from the price of so-so food.

Wonderful at Sunset!
I tried to get to the SunDial at sunset we missed our 8:15 reservation and made it around 8:45. Staff was polite and we were immediately accomodated. The sky was still a little pink. The view was breaktaking! My boyfriend and I were speechless. I was surpised at how big the restaurant was and how nicely dim and romantic it was. Don't feel bad for taking pictures, everyone does. We were celebrating my boyfriend's acceptance into Pharmacy school. I hadn't had the chance to tell our server, Abdul, but he brought us an extra dessert. Raspberry and chocolate sorbet. I don't like chocolate but the their chocolate sorbet was good. The Blackberry Napoleon was good (the berries werent sweet but...so what) the cream was so heavy and rich. YUM! Food is pricey...I would reccomend to share dessert. drinks (wine) are small but nice. Perfect restaurant. Staff is friendly and parking is validated at the end of the night. My boyfriend felt so special and kept thanking me. You will get many brownie points.

THE PERFECT PLACE.
My boyfirend and I had a wonderful time at the Sundail. The food was great. My boyfriend had the eggs over Altanta and I had the lime gilled shrimp. The view was breath taking and the New york cheese cake was great. So anyone that goes to the Sundail must try the New York cheese cake. Believe us you if you want a breath taking view and wonderful food. The Sundail is were you need to go. GO NOW!!
