DJ Eyce is King and he rules alone Footprints Restaurant Lounge in Decatur…a true sound killa.<br/ <br/ Footprints Restaurant Lounge in Decatur, which has been entertaining the Caribbean community, celebrates its 20th anniversary HotAtl in December 2011. This is a true testimony of its owner Bert Laird, a naturally sociable person. FP is one of the first clubs in HotAtl where Caribbean people could go 'cut a tile '. Don 't let the word Lounge in its name fool u, it 's anything but a place to 'lounge '. <br/ <br/ Footprints attracts a wide diverse clientele, as this is where HotAtl Caribbeans and Africians tak dem friends feh affordable premium spirits, sip on a rum punch or two, (their signature drink , and to savor Chef Monica 's tasty and delicious Jamaican Jerk Chicken, rice and peas authentically prepared and served.<br/ <br/ This warm, intimate, comfortable feel, after hours spot draws and keeps its patrons together like a family, kinda like 'Cheers ' bar where everybody know u name and always glad seh u come. No matter whey u go, you hafa feh end de nite at the original Footprints.<br/ <br/ Footprints Restaurant Lounge in Decatur provides a vibrant restaurant and bar scene, late night find, neighborhood gem, affordable premium drinks, hot spot and friendly people and staff. Great place to host an event. Its acoustical sound system is so clear you not only hear the Reggae rhythmic style but also feel de beat…lawd the music sweet!<br/ <br/ However, FP looks almost the same as it did 20 years ago. Could use an updated look and feel without losing its 'island charm ' Way too many small TV screens, very distracting. Replace them with two or three strategically placed 55 ' flat screen TVs, perhaps? Go wireless and connect DJ equipment so that audience can interact with DJs via texting, tweeting, emails, etc. Add younger 'Guest DJs ' to the mix and rotate DJs. If FP markets itself to the 2nd generation Caribbean Americans (as the original crew is now 50+ it can survive for another 20 years.<br/ <br/ Define your 'Brand ' and then promote, repeat, and advertise, in order to stand even further above the current plethora of neo Caribbean nightspots that are popping up all over metro HotAtl.<br/ <br/ <br/ Overall: <br/ <br/ Service: <br/ <br/ Food: <br/ <br/ Ambiance: Energetic, Lively <br/ <br/ Venue Layout:

Atl's Best !. I am very fond of this family owned restaurant nightclub. The food is great the price is right and the hospitality is always friendly and professional. <br <br I am looking forward to the new Location at Underground Atlanta,

Amazing drinks long over do for some. Great raga music. Nice people amazing conversation as well.

Great drinks music and service. Will definitely return!

This place is located near 2 other clubs so it looks like business is sort of slow, but I went this past Saturday. This isn't my first time visiting this club but its usually packed. The food is always great, the drinks weren't as strong as they usually are. Overall I enjoyed the atmosphere
