Elegance, star power, and a touch of pandemonium swirled together beautifully to create a momentous grand opening for Quavo’s new upscale dining spot, the appropriately titled V12 Restaurant and Sports Bar in Midtown Atlanta.
The co-owners of V12, celebrated restaurateurs Kelan and Vinny Watson, had already achieved renown as the owners of the luxurious dessert and cocktail lounge Sovereign Sweets in the ritzy Buckhead section of Atlanta.
Quavo and the Watsons were joined at the grand opening of V12 in Midtown by the likes of music moguls Clifford “T.I.” Harris Jr. and 2Chainz, as well as Joseline Hernandez of “Joseline’s Cabaret” fame, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Sheree Whitfield and many others.
With V12, the Watsons and Quavo took elegance and sophistication to another level, albeit on the second floor of a BP gas station located at 610 Spring St. NW. that overlooks the iconic sign of The Varsity as well as the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Once guests arrive, they are immersed in a 7,500-square-foot venue that features luxurious decor imported from the Netherlands, Spain and Italy. The spot is also adorned with sleek metals, local art, an outdoor eating area, spectacular views of the downtown landscape, and a retractable roof. A faux Lamborghini made out of neon tubes, that Quavo used during his performance on “The Tonight Show,” is the centerpiece of V12.
Included on the delectable menu are pomegranate lamb chops ($44), crispy buttermilk popcorn shrimp ($18), and baked macaroni and cheese ($15).
V12 also features two private rooms that are aptly named “The Kelan” and “The Vinny,” that can seat up to 30 people and include VIP service. To top off the experience are the 20 gigantic flatscreens for optimal sports-watching. Valet service, as well as self-parking, are options for the patrons of the restaurant.
“We are finally here. We are finally here,” Quavo exclaimed in an Instagram story for his 24 million followers. “The top secret project is almost finished. Yeah, V12. We live.”
And at the V12 Restaurant and Sports Bar, guests can live their best life.
