Article 14 offers a compelling beer and wine list (both by glass and bottle) in addition to a full-bar with an emphasis on bourbon. The “Manhattan Assembly” as the restaurant has named it, allows patrons to craft-their-own Manhattan, with the help of an Article 14 bartender, by selecting from 14 spirits, seven vermouths and 14 bitters.

According to a press release, Legacy Property Group’s in-house design and development team completely renovated the space. Article 14 evokes the feeling of a private club utilizing rich tactile materials and combining dark woods. The focal point of the space is an elegant wood-paneled bar extending the length of the room.

Alan Avery Art Company brings a unique concept to the décor by featuring an Atlanta lawyer wall of fame, with portraits of prominent lawyers from firms who are located in the vicinity, a nod to the restaurants clientele and neighboring businesses. Local artist William Rossoto created the portraits.

The restaurant will serve lunch and dinner on Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. until 11 p.m. and on Saturday and Sunday for dinner only from 5 p.m. until 11 p.m.

A parking deck is located next to the restaurant with an entrance off of both Peachtree and 14th streets. There is also complimentary valet parking at both entrances with dining in and validated self-parking for up to two hours. Additional information is available at www.Article14.com and call 404-443-8432 to make reservations.
