This southern soul food spot exceeded my expectations. It's a small spot that is take out only, but it's worth the wait and the food makes up for the lack of seating. The fried chicken is to die for with its crunchy dredge and umami flavor. The collard greens were well flavored with the small pieces of bacon, and the baked beans were surprisingly great, perfect balance of sweetness in the side. Busy Bee does an exceptional job with their southern dishes

The quality of the food has declined so much it’s honestly disappointing, especially since the prices have gone up. I also didn’t realize they removed most of the seating, so you’d think the service would be faster—but it’s not. This was always my go-to spot, but they’ve gotten their last $30 from me. It’s really a shame.

Whoever the owner(s) is, either (he, she or them) need to rethink whether they should continue operating as a restaurant. I do not believe in knocking a hustle, but if you are not going to deliver quality food, etc. then why remain in service. I understand times are hard, prices are skyrocketing, but if you can not service your people with better tasting food, what's the point. I remember in the earlier days, Busy Bees, was like leaving your Grandma's home cooking and going over Auntie's for more good ole tasting soul food. NOW, it taste like card board, the quality has left the building, no where to be found. It is sad to say the least. Something has to change. How are you able to sleep well knowing you are serving bare minimum quality food to your community.

Way overpriced and small portions. I try to support black business but it's hard when they treat you like shit and then overcharge you for a little bitty portion of food. The menu picture is double what you actually are served. So disappointed. Please do better Busy Bee. If not your days in business may not be many.

The food is delicious. Generally, I don’t eat soul food in the street….Babbbbby, our fried chicken, fish, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, greens, and yams were sooooo delicious. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy

Horrible treatment of customers.

Michael Hagen

Very low quality food, no wonder so many people have so many chronic health problems. Very expensive for the low quality, for the price the quality should be better. So many better meat and 3’s in ATL.
