Here are some suggestions for where to throw your party, whether you’re planning for a kid’s party, or want to do something a little more sophisticated.

Since birthdays were meant to be celebrated, why not spend time in Atlanta visiting some of the hottest locations for throwing parties? First of all, you’ll have to decide what type of party you want. If you’re in Atlanta, you can make reservations at casual restaurants (with really good food) or you can arrange to go to a more upscale place (with really good food) in order to make your birthday more memorable. There are also a few places where you can make reservations for a kid’s birthday party, so your kids can have just as much fun on their birthdays as you will.

Here are some of the top spots for both adults and children in Atlanta to throw birthday parties that are both good for your entertainment and your wallet:

The Georgia Aquarium

The aquarium is one of the newest attractions in Atlanta, and is an ideal place for birthday parties for both children and adults. If you take a group of 15 or more to the aquarium, you can receive a group rate, and you can enjoy all the great exhibits that the aquarium has to offer, such as the Georgia Explorer, which is an interactive exhibit that includes sea animals that are native to the Georgia coast, and children’s play area so your kids and their guests can enjoy themselves. The Ocean Voyager is also a good exhibit that adults will be attracted to, since it includes large sea creatures like sharks and whales in an exhibit that is unmatched in the United States. You can also enjoy the food that is featured at the aquarium’s restaurant, where the food is prepared by an award -winning chefs at CafÃ?© Aquaria, where you and your birthday guests can choose from Italian fare at Naples Pasta and Pizza, burgers and other sandwiches at Grill, and or Buckhead Bread for soups and salads. www.georgiaquarium.org will give you more details on all the animals that you’ll find at the aquarium, as well as pricing information for services and food.

Twist and Shout Restaurants

For a more sophisticated party scene that is intimate and modern, you may want to check out Twist or Shout, which are restaurants that are part of the Here to Serve restaurant group. Both restaurants have a sophisticated feel to them, along with party rooms that you can reserve for your get-together. The plush pillows and dim lighting are great for intimate dinners with that special someone, or for a small group of your favorite people. You can enjoy great desserts like the Chocolate Sampler, which is a decadent dessert that includes chocolately treats like chocolate truffles, souffle, and even chocolate liqueur for you and your guests to try out. There is also a sorbet sampler to try, with flavors like mango and raspberry, complete with chocolate shavings and mint leaves.

The appetizers are great as well (at both restaurants), such as potato samosas (from Shout), or the lamp kabobs (at Twist). Whether you have friends coming in from out of town or you and some Atlanta natives are looking for a great place to celebrate your birthday, these restaurants should definitely be on your list.

Piedmont Park

If you enjoy the outdoors, Piedmont Park is a good place to have a kid’s or adult birthday party. You can take advantage of the many festivals and events that are always going on in the park, such as the Jazz Festival that goes on every summer, or the bird walks that are held in the park every third Saturday. You can make reservations in Magnolia Hall for larger parties, and you can even have the party catered; you can choose from a variety of bar services, as well as a list of approved Atlanta caterers in the area to supply the perfect meals for your party. There are additional events like the Saturday Safari, which is great for kid’s birthday parties, and the park tours that you can take with a group of friends to celebrate your birthday.

Hopefully these suggestions will serve to make your birthday (or your child’s birthday) a special one. Don’t forget to make your reservations as early as possible to be sure that you and your guests have the time (and space) to enjoy your special day. Happy birthday!
