The server was very dry from the initial meet, tall guy with glasses (Shane)claims that he’s a manager made us order everything separately because he did not know the menu or any items on the menu so our order came out with many different meals. In the end we had to ask for another waiter, who explained the menu for us in detail and we were able to re-order. Initially he told us the only way to get another waitress is to move (a family of 5) out of his area. If you’re looking for a place to bring your family and you’re expecting good service, maybe it’s just this one waiter, this is not the place to come and if he’s the manager, that’s very very bad for this establishment. The issue I had with it is I’ve been coming to the same exact restaurant for years and every time I come, I saw his face, for him to act like he did not know the menu was veryupsetting to me.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST BREAKFAST IVE EVERRRRRR HAD!!!! OUTSTANDING SERVICE... CLEAN ESTABLISHMENT.... FOOD TOP TIER... I WOULD EAT THERE EVERYDAY IF I LIVED THERE.....🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Food was great. Service was absolutely terrible, had to keep asking for refills and other obvious items needed for the table. Don’t expect great service for 5+ ppl due to gratuity already being tacked on. Need to change a baby?! Ha get creative or you have to go to the car. The food was good so maybe just do a to go order.

Went here for my birthday breakfast, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I specifically went because of their shrimp and grits that I saw advertised with good reviews. It did not disappoint. I know I've often had shrimp and grits with sausage but these have no sausage but they were still good, very spicy. We had a great server but I failed to get her name. When you go in you scan the QR code at the table, then place your order with the server. The meals did not take long to come out, and everything was hot and delicious. There is a small parking lot next to the building, which is not very big but we still had a parking space. I did see some people pulling right in front of the diner.

I enjoyed both visits we had here! The French toast is amazing, so are the cheese grits, ham, bacon and the skillet heap. The waitress was super cool and took great care of us. No complaints at all about this place. If we lived closer we'd absolutely be regulars. Good pricing too!

This has been a staple of our experience in Atlanta since 1996. Just down the street from our home church, this is an inviting spot for locals and visitors alike. It used to be cash only but I'm not sure that's the case now. They serve solid down home southern breakfast fare. Scrambled eggs grits toast bacon all the things you would expect to find at a good breakfast spot. They also do heap bowls which contain a variety of proteins supplemented with potatoes and diced vegetables. There will be a bit of a wait on Sunday particularly as the day goes on but it's worth it
