Taking yourself out and enjoying your own company is everything. I love your transparency about how you were getting wrapped up in the hustle and grind in life. Gotta remember to make time for what you enjoy doing. You look gorgeous in that yellow dress btw!!!😍 You just inspired me to really make time for what I love doing. I really miss it.❤ That lamb chop looks amazing.
We definitely have to make time for ourselves because is not slowing down for us! I don’t want to look back one day and think of all the things I “woulda coulda shoulda” done! And thank you!!!
Spinning Sun Dial was a vibe back in the day. . There's also a bar the next level up. So much changed. It used to be totally free to ride up to the restaurant.
I stumbled across your channel today. I work from home and I’ve been saying I need to create opportunities to leave the house. This vlog is very inspiring.
I haven't been there in à long time. I was hoping that they would eventually start the rotation again. It was such a unique feature. The Hyatt Regency also had that revolving dome feature. I think they still have Live jazz some evenings. Thanks for sharing.😊
I used to work here as a hostest. They turned the rotation off b/c a kid got their foot stuck & got hurt, so that's why they turned it off. They will validate the elevator ride. I rode that elevator ONCE b/c I'm afraid of heights, so I just wound up riding the regular elevator. And your server is one of the BEST working there. He's been there a longggg time. Such a nice guy. Hiiiii friend! 👋🏻🤗🙂 & the other guy that's talking to you "podcast of a bad server" he's also been there for a while. Now HE is funny as all outdoors. Cool down to earth guy. 13:55 and the lighting on the Mercedes-Benz stadium is gorge at night.
I just happened to see your video after I had dinner this evening. I’ve been to the Sundial on a few occasions, but your video of your experience was delightful, Well presented and felt very organic. Thank you so much. You added a new perspective. Well done mam 👍🏾
One of my favorite restaurants. My first time there was when it rotated. I didn't notice until I looked up and didn't see what I saw moments earlier. I was confused yet impressed. 😆 I've been 2 more times. I think I will treat myself to a solo date soon.
Loved your video Sis. I’m trying to find a nice,relaxing, and classy restaurant to take my mom since she had a stressful year last year before my grandmother passed. Your essence with your video is so calming and relaxing. You’ve convinced me of where to go lol❤
I’m so sorry for your family’s loss. I took my mom here for Mother’s Day one year and she loved it. I think your mom will enjoy it! I’m glad I could help! ❤️
Def right on point, you gotta take a break, sometimes I lay in the bed, and watch videos. And other times just silence. I need to try this restaurant. I love that you were by yourself. 💜💜💯💯
First time here on your channel, and anyway you feel like a new best friend! Subscribed! I don't live far, so I think I need to do as you said and take a break, and possibly visit the Sundial restaurant. I always kinda just look at it in passing.
I have to be honest with you: you were over-charged for your meal. Not saying it was slop...but It wasn't worth what they charged you. You should try 'Miller Union'. It's a Michelin-star quality southern style restaurant in midtown Atlanta that's WAY better than the Sundial...at a much better price. Chef Steve Satterfield's menu is impeccable, and their pastry chef is outstanding. And your bill, with drinks and dessert, will be around $100...give or take.
Back in the late 80's we would drive up from Macon just to go up to Underground then Sundial and have drinks. That was when the restaurant would slowly rotate. We thought we were really seeing something back then..haha
I have been up there before two times back in 2020 and 2024 and I’ll be back there again this year in 2025 because I’m just so happy that place is so popular and I’ve been up there before and some videos about it 😊❤
I haven’t been to the Sundial since it stopped rotating but I remember that I enjoyed the views and drinks … The food not so much ! You go there for ambiance …I think i’ve been there 3 times. Polaris is pretty much the same for me … the food is “meh” … just ok ! But the views and drinks were really good . The Polaris rotates
I’ve never been there! The Sundial definitely stepped up their food game because before this video I hadn’t been there since 2019 and I remember not caring for the food too much. I would give it one more try if you’re ever in the mood to go back!
The little boy who was injured at the Sundial did not survive his injuries. I was fortunate enough to go to the Sundial when the restaurant rotated 360 degrees.
BACK in the day, we could get buzzed during lunch and ride up the elevator and there was no charge but this was late 90s early 80s. Only ate here once, the food was just OK, nothing to really write home about. But the view IS amazing and at tha time, it rotated VERY SLOWLY this was prior to the incident were the PARENTS WERE NOT WATCHNG THEIR KID AND LETTING HIM RUN WILD ALL OVER THE PLACE AND HE GOT HIS FOOT STUCK.
That baby got his head stuck and he died. Reports say that the parents were right behind him when he slipped and got stuck, but the restaurant did not have an emergency shut off switch for the rotating mechanism and the parents had to stand there and watch their baby being crushed to death.
I just came across your channel today and like your energy, you gained another subscriber. I would love to interview you for some of the documentaries that I'm filming for my Media Company. You seem like you would definitely be a great person to interview. Please let me know if you're interested. 💡📸📽🎬💫
Thank you so much for subscribing! And that’s cool! I’ve been strapped for time lately but you can send me a DM on IG and possibly set something up in the future (@heyyitsneyy)
I honestly have not treated myself in a while so this will be one of my spots. With health issues and things all out of my control I have been in the house for so long. You don’t have to have a man take you to expensive restaurants when you can do it yourself like some women try to require this on dates for men they just met.
Exactly! I used to think I couldn’t enjoy things unless I had someone with me and that’s totally not the case! Also, can’t expect someone else to do for you what you’re not willing/can’t do for yourself!
I been living in metro Atlanta since 92. Atl has lost everything that made it what it was, downtown looks like a zombie land it’s very depressing, I mainly only go to the jazz festival now. They should just close the sun dial, why have it open if it won’t rotate anymore, that’s wack! Atl was so fly up until the mid 2000s😢
A few years back, the rotating feature killed a toddler and it had to be shut down. It was closed for a while, I wasn’t aware that it reopened and no longer rotates.
36:27 if you don’t ride the elevator how else are you going to get up and down from there? 😅 charging $10 seems unfair. anyways, are there other restaurants in the area with nice views? I love everything about the sundial but the menu is not my cup of tea.
They only charge if you ride up there without dining/going to the bar 😅 I heard Polaris has good views but I haven’t been yet. One place I want to try is Reverb, which is a rooftop bar that sits right across from the Mercedes Benz Stadium
Love the video ! I here you talking about your channel and I would love a one on one conversation on getting my RUclips new channel I’m here in Atlanta as well let me know if we can chat ❤

Nothing like a good solo date!
Facts!!! 💯

Yay!!! I’m glad I could help!
I'll be subscribing. I like your down to earth, friendly personality!
Thank you so much! 😁
Sometimes on my off day I have lunch…mani-pedi or a movie solo….and it feels great….and I know I’m in good company 😀
Yesssss!
I haven't been there in à long time. I was hoping that they would eventually start the rotation again. It was such a unique feature. The Hyatt Regency also had that revolving dome feature. I think they still have Live jazz some evenings. Thanks for sharing.😊
Once that child died, I knew they would never let it rotate again.
I used to love the sun dial back in the day when it was still spinning, me and my ex wife used to come here all the time. Haven't been since.😕
My family dined there every year back when it rotated. Great memories
I used to work here as a hostest. They turned the rotation off b/c a kid got their foot stuck & got hurt, so that's why they turned it off. They will validate the elevator ride.

Everyone was very nice!
I need to go back at night so I can see the views and possibly hear the live music!
I went years ago when it used to spin slowly . That was a cool feature. The kid actually got his head stuck and it killed him.
I just happened to see your video after I had dinner this evening. I’ve been to the Sundial on a few occasions, but your video of your experience was delightful, Well presented and felt very organic. Thank you so much. You added a new perspective. Well done mam 👍🏾

Amazing!!! I've dined there before... this video is really making me hungry. Thank you for the menu choice!!!
They definitely showed out with the food that day 😂 Thank you for watching!

Thank you! I’m happy for you as well!

Thanks for sharing your experience, I enjoyed the video and subscribed to your channel!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
This is Definitely Inspiring to take yourself on a Solo Date. Thanks for this; I’m Definitely visiting the restaurant ❤️🙏
Def right on point, you gotta take a break, sometimes I lay in the bed, and watch videos. And other times just silence. I need to try this restaurant. I love that you were by yourself. 💜💜💯💯

Love your videos fun to watch ❤

Hi New to your channel. I must go to this restaurant never been heard about it. Thank you for the encouraging words I need this for myself
Thank you for watching! I’m glad I could help! 😁

😂😂
Thank you for reviewing this restaurant and showing me I can go alone 😊
Yes Ma’am! 😁
Yes Sis! LOVE THIS !
Make me want to move back to the A! Had A Blast when I lived there.
I went to the Sundial years ago, & this is my 1st time hearing that it no longer spins. 😭
A kid got crushed by the revolving walls that’s why.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will add it to my list of places to try in 2025!
Try the Marietta Fish Market , for 2 I spent about $120 with huge desserts included, Pasta Bella is nice as well
Adding this to my list! Thank you!
I love meeting different ppl in other cities.
I am going to do this and go here.
I never go Solo. 😊
Thanks for Sharing.
Great! I hope you enjoy your visit there!
The food looks great. I went there one time, back in 1996. I live in Atlanta.
Thanks girl 🙏🏼
😁

Yes! I definitely think this place is worth hitting up at least annually!
Represent Queen!!!👑🎤
Thanks for sharing ❤
😁❤️
Omg love your videos. I’m in the Atl… your Bucees trip was epic!!!! Which Bucees did you go to?
Thank you so much!
That Bucees was down 75 in Fort Valley. There’s also one on 75 past Kennesaw that I’ve heard good things about too!
Damn, Wow 👌 👏
She can put away some food, she woofed everything down. 🤣 lol
New subscriber. I need to take myself out on a solo date!
I was wondering if it still spin, had heard about that incident with that child. Wish I had a chance to experience that🤦🏾♂️
I haven’t been to the Sundial since it stopped rotating but I remember that I enjoyed the views and drinks …
The food not so much ! You go there for ambiance …I think i’ve been there 3 times.
Polaris is pretty much the same for me … the food is “meh” … just ok ! But the views and drinks were really good . The Polaris rotates
I’ve never been there!
The Sundial definitely stepped up their food game because before this video I hadn’t been there since 2019 and I remember not caring for the food too much. I would give it one more try if you’re ever in the mood to go back!
Thank you......inspired!!!
I’m glad to hear that! Thank you for watching!
That meal looks gooood. But $86 for 2 thin lamb chops😮. I know you enjoyed it.
I definitely did! I prepared myself for the prices before I scheduled the reservation 😂
I retired from there Love it❤
The little boy who was injured at the Sundial did not survive his injuries. I was fortunate enough to go to the Sundial when the restaurant rotated 360 degrees.

I was just thinking of going on a date there too solo !
This place is perfect!
I love that restaurant ❤
I love the male server. He's hilarious 😂
Yea he is 😂

And that’s cool! I’ve been strapped for time lately but you can send me a DM on IG and possibly set something up in the future (@heyyitsneyy)
Does it no longer rotate?
Nope. They stopped making it spin after a child was crushed. It was all over the news when it happened a few years ago.
@@heyyitsneyy yes I actually saw that after watching this video. So sad that happened. .
What 2 cameras did you use for these videos? It is very clear!!!
I recorded the main video on the iPhone 15 pro max and the camera is a Nikon Z30
Does it still spin 🤔
No 😞
If Im not mistaken that penthouse next to Georgia power building Elton john stayed in
Why is this guy running his trap while you are trying to do you and have a pleasant meal? That is so unprofessional. My people are so special !!!!
ok. I am going to go to the Sun Dial and ride the elevator. I think I will order everything you have in this video too.
Yessss! That food was delicious!
I've been wanting to eat there
I definitely recommend! You can make your reservation on the OpenTable app 😎
Stumbled on your video. Ironically, I attended high school with your server. Small world.
I got that from Judge Boyd, take off from work once every 3 months. Don't even do any house work.
I need to try that! When I do take off, house work is the first thing I want to take care of
I live in Conyers, Ga I just connected with you.
I honestly have not treated myself in a while so this will be one of my spots. With health issues and things all out of my control I have been in the house for so long.

@ THIS!!! ❤️
The breakfast is good
I’m heading to the hotel today, not sure if I’m eating at the sun dial tho
Completely understandable 😂
I definitely recommend going up to the top and taking in the views though!
I would’ve said take that back and wash and oil your hands and put on gloves before bring me utensils 😂😂😂😂
#subscribed
Thank you so much!
Hey Hey I went there , my opinion not enough food for what they charge.
Hey! Yea….I think the service quality and ambiance is definitely added to the price 😅 but the food was cooked to perfection!
Such a shame the Sundial doesn't spin anymore😪
I hate that I didn’t get to experience it
Well the kid actually died from the incident. It was tragic however, I don't understand why they have not resumed the rotation of the restaurant.
I been living in metro Atlanta since 92. Atl has lost everything that made it what it was, downtown looks like a zombie land it’s very depressing, I mainly only go to the jazz festival now. They should just close the sun dial, why have it open if it won’t rotate anymore, that’s wack! Atl was so fly up until the mid 2000s😢

The kid wasn't killed

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣on the lamb chops
😂😂
The servers aren't giving top tier. It's giving he shouldn't have been talking over you that was rude.
😎
Darius is a LUCKY dude!!!!
💯
I bet it took her 3 hours to get to the sundial from Buckhead lol 😂😂😂😂
….I actually did leave out the footage of me sitting in traffic 😂
Love the video ! I here you talking about your channel and I would love a one on one conversation on getting my RUclips new channel I’m here in Atlanta as well let me know if we can chat ❤

You too pretty for solo dates
