I came to this establishment with 8 people and after ordering a ton of food, I got charged $20 for taking up the big table??? Never in my life have I had to do that. It’s absurd! Do not recommend the place. The food was also horrible!
(Edited for tone – I originally wrote this while still frustrated. The purpose of this review isn’t to be harsh, but to offer constructive feedback for the owner and insight for future customers.)
To clarify the timeline for the owner: the wait was approximately 70–80 minutes. I know the timeline because we had to monitor the time.
My coworkers and I came for lunch, arriving at 12:10-12:15. Our drink orders were taken almost immediately, but we weren’t actually served the drinks until 12:30-12:40 when our food orders were also taken.
We then waited roughly 50-60 more minutes for our meals, which arrived sometime between 1:20 and 1:30.
Unfortunately in my personal case, my salad came with ranch dressing instead of Caesar. When I asked about it, I was told they had run out of Caesar dressing over an hour earlier—which was after we placed our order but well before the food was served.
I accepted the ranch cups—not because it’s what I wanted, but because I was tired of waiting and needed to get back to work.
I completely understand that restaurants get busy and ingredients run out, but a heads-up would have been appreciated—especially with such a long wait. I could have changed my order if I’d known. I didn’t order a house salad, a ranch salad, or any other kind of salad — I ordered a Caesar salad, and the owner still got paid for something I did not receive.
Just a note for anyone sensitive to smells: there was a faint bathroom-like odor in the dining area. It wasn’t overpowering, but it was noticeable.
That said, the staff were very kind and accommodating once the food arrived, and it tasted great. I do think the place is understaffed—there was just one person managing the front, and it showed in how long everything took.
I really do want this place to succeed, and I hope this feedback is helpful. That said, this likely won’t be our choice for work lunches moving forward. I'll still be back at some point for the the amazing fries though!🙂
Great customer service, food and atmosphere. Kendall, Keep going up!
Their food is so fresh and testy.And most importantly it is Halal.
Massive burger, tasted great and really affordable!!!!
I had high hopes based on the reviews. The positives were that the service was friendly and the place was well-kept. The negatives are the food being bland. I thought the chicken sandwich would be good but it had no real flavor. Also the quality of the chicken was low. It had tough parts and was clearly not 100% breast meat. Very mid.
Me and my sister ordered the chopped cheese and it was not good at all. It was disgustingly bland i had to keep adding ketchup to it to get some type of flavor profile the bread was soggy cheese was nowhere to be found. Incredibly oily leaving us absolutely nauseous after eating it, shocking because i have eaten the food here before and its normally good but i will never order the chopped cheese again. It was the definition of a NOTHING BURGER. This was a Three Buddies specialty???? You would have to be really special to put this monstrosity anywhere near your mouth (ayo)
Ive came here 2 times since the new ownership and let me tell you the food taste way better I can taste a massive difference. The fries are seasoned, the hushpuppies have corn in them and give them a nice hint of sweetness, the tator tots are even seasoned! I tried the chop cheese and the signature burger on different visits it was cooked perfectly and the brioche bun was toasted perfectly. Really check them out and every thing is halal!

Probably the best burger I've had in ATL. The fries are incredible! We had the loaded fries with chicken and we picked the spicy option. It was so good. We also had onion rings and Mac and cheese both are fantastic options. We ordered too much food, so we took it home to finish later! Service and staff were super friendly. This will be one of our regular spots!

We visited Three Buddies for the daily specials, and I was impressed with the service — it's definitely improved since the previous ownership. The food was tasty, and the fries were a standout, crispy and delicious. However, I did notice that the prices have gone up. The daily specials are now around $15, including tax, which feels a bit high for a special. Despite that, the quality was great, and I’d still return for some solid halal fast food

Very good food at a reasonable price. The restaurant is very clean. The onion rings are the best. Joy was friendly and professional, and she made a great milk shake. This was my first visit. I can't wait to come back and try the other menu items.
