<p>About a month ago, I ate at Noche Vinings. Now for those who don&#8217;t know &#8211; Noche is another one of the <em><a href="http://www.h2sr.com/" target="_blank">Here to Serve</a></em> restaurants. I&#8217;m not a huge fan of this chain of restaurants. They aren&#8217;t bad &#8211; but I&#8217;m sort of anti-chain restaurants. I consider most of their food technically correct although never impressive. That being said &#8211; you generally won&#8217;t have a bad time when you go to one of them. So before I get into the specifics, I wasn&#8217;t terribly impressed with Noche &#8211; so this won&#8217;t be a post recommending this place. The drinks were good, the ambiance as great, the food was pathetic <img src='http://okwera.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p><strong>Food</strong></p>
<p>The food here was a sore disappointment<strong>. </strong>I&#8217;ve eaten at the other <em>here to serve restaurants</em> (shout, twist, strip) and they are almost always functionally acceptable. However, we had about 8 &#8211; 9 tapas and all of them were bad. The drinks were good, but I can&#8217;t stress how bad the entrees were. I found that the food generally had no flavor. Although fairly visually appealing, the favors simply didn&#8217;t live up to the hype.</p>
<p><strong>Ambiance</strong></p>
<p>The decor was great. Our table was right near the open fireplace. There isn&#8217;t much to say except they clearly spent most of their money on making sure this place looks good!</p>
<p>Random Thoughts</p>
<p>I&#8217;d go back here but not to eat. It&#8217;s a great place in Vinings to hang out with friends, get some drinks, and chill.</p>
