| - This place proves that it's worth giving someone a second chance. The first time I went there for dinner, I ordered the oxtail soup, but it was so-so, and I dismissed Atti as just another fancy-looking Asian restaurant place downtown. Several months later, my colleagues found out that at lunchtime their menu is half price and they quickly started going there on a regular basis, after which they wouldn't stop gushing about how delicious the beef ribs were. That convinced me to go back, and since then I've been a fan! The beef ribs are indeed a winner. Sweet, tender and come in a generous portion! The complementary side dishes - there are usually three of them (kimchi, beansprouts and potatoes cooked in sweet sauce) are also very good.
Nowadays I don't think the lunch time menu is half the price of the dinner menu, but it's still a good value for what you pay for. If I could give just one constructive criticism... there's this guy who's always there, a bit of an all rounder (maybe the manager, maybe the owner?), he's efficient and all, but could definitely use a smile. I know it's not just me. My colleagues have also commented the same. If you're going there for lunch, best to make a reservation as it's often full-house.
