Tamina was so warm and welcoming as soon as we came in the door, and very helpful with assisting us with the menu.

I got the backyard burger, and my wife got the black bean salmon entree. Both were perfectly cooked and perfectly delicious.

Thank you, ally, tamina, the kitchen, and Fresh to Order for a completely wonderful dinner experience!“

“Second visit, nice place, good old fashioneds, but something went wrong with my fish and chips. The best way to describe it would be..."Tasty fish filets wrapped in soggy pancake batter." Mentioned it to our server, no solution forthcoming. We were in a hurry so I let it slide that time but never again.“

“Most places that sell wings are to rude or not clean . I’m actually surprised and happy at how friendly and nice the service is here . From the time I walk and out they made me feel welcomed and like I am person . It’s rare to see and get but definitely quality customer service and food.“

“Highly recommend Amazing Wings in Stone Mountain! I've never felt so welcomed at a fast food restaurant. They are always genuinely happy we're here! Food is amazing and the wings are easily 500 times bigger than places like American Deli. 35 wings flavors and also have fish, Philly, shrimp, gyro, burgers...“

“I’ve always past by Waffle House locations, but was never drawn to it. Today was my first visit and was pleasantly surprised!
Very friendly service, quick food turnaround and tasty breakfast items. Nothing over the top, but just a good place for a solid breakfast“

“We had a Great time at The Brandon Davis show last night!! 1st time there, cool venue! I read online before we came that people could order in food, bring in food, but Not drinks. I saw many many people bringing in drinks. I think the rules should be enforced that they do not allow drinks to be brought in !! that’s how the bartender makes his money. ( who was also great BTW) That was just tacky of people !!! It wasn’t just the ones that brought a drink from the restaurant, people literally had drinks in yetis. Great Venue, Great show!“

“Great service & amazing food“

“Listen I don’t live on this side of town but my son’s father recommended this place and man did they deliver. The tacos were amazing and that sauce OMG gotta get a squeeze bottle of that. Then my Philly and wings were a hit as well…10/10 definitely recommend“

“My boyfriend and I just ate here for the first time today. We live an hour away and wanted to try something new since we were in the area. The food was AMAZING! We had edamame for an appetizer, my boyfriend had a mushroom quesadilla and I had a delicious Buffalo shrimp salad. Only disappointment was the service from the bartender. We had to ask if we could order, we had to ask for refills, and she never did a check back on the food; so we had to ask for her attention about a question I had concerning my salad dressing. Other customers sitting down had to do the same for service. This was all because she was on her tablet reading. So anytime we interrupted her it was because she was reading from her tablet. This was a disappointment but will try again because of the food quality and nice atmosphere.“

“You pretty much can't get lobster tails cooked to perfection, and the seafood family A1“

“It’s like Cheers! Everyone knows your name! Friendly staff! Greet beer! Good food! They take care of ya! LMHS Class of 88 😎“

“All in all great place for an end of day go home and eat day. I enjoyed my food had enough for next day. Owner is hands on, appears to value her employees and they were friendly and willing to assist all customers. Dressed neat and clean very good showing. The location was very tidy and a great place to also eat in if desired.“

“No Lies, This is the ONLY AMERICAN DELI that I’ve been to & it has been a 9/10 each time .. (9 b/c sometimes when I pay for “wet” they don’t add it!) but flavor, always there, always consistent, I’ve never waited more than 10 mins !!! Seriously! I will continue to spend my Dollas here! 🙌🏾“

“Food was cooked fresh and hot restaurant was clean and the air was fresh to breathe and the bathroom was clean and fresh. You know we say the first impression is a lasting one and it was my first time there and definitely won’t be my last.???????????? ❣️❣️❣️“

“Amazing customer service- above and beyond! We were in town from out of state and Per her recommendation we met here for dinner. After a long day of site seeing with the family I wasn’t feeling 100%. The staff took great care of me! Packaged up my food, gave me supplies to make it back to our cabin 1.5 hours away and went above and beyond. Everyone else enjoyed the food and said it was excellent (mine was the next day). We will definitely be going back when in town again.“

“I would like to give a big shout out to Jeffery!! I needed a receipt for my corporate account that I lost. Jeffery went above and beyond to find my receipt. He did it with a smile....his professionalism is impeccable. I will continue to give this location my service. Again thank you Jeffery.“

“Where to start? What a delightful evening and meal. The waiter, to start with, was amazingly attentive and kept up with us the entire evening. Also the owner came over and filled us in on the recent history. Liquor license is in now but I don't drink so that was not important. Let me segue to the food. OMG, the mushroom and goat cheese fondue with tomato jam was to die for. It was served in a cast iron skillet with plenty of toast. The sauce was so rich and creamy. To keep this under an hour and a half reading let me say my bride's steak was perfect along with the brussel sprouts and kale. Let me tell you about the pork chop. I like my pork chops to be medium rare if possible and it was perfectly pink inside. I try my best to get that look and I always overcome them. The sweet potato puree asking with the brussel sprouts was outstanding. The portions were very generous and couldn't ask anything better for a Monday night meal. OK, then there was the bread pudding. Oh, Lord, when I tasted the whiskey I almost fell in the floor. So, let me say to the people who has a bad time at the restaurant that they are hitting on all cylinders. I can understand a Karen or two that have nothing better to do than be haters, especially after the opening of the restaurants after COVID. I get it. Why not try to come back and give it another chance. They deserve it and you could use a good meal to chill out.“

“Had to stay here for an extended period due to family member being in the hospital (hint, ask the desk for the hospital rate if that’s why you’re there, it may be a better rate than the one you can get online—not always though). Only one of us would come shower/nap while the other was at the hospital so didn’t spend a lot of time in the room but when there, the bed was comfortable and the lights were good. Has a fridge which is helpful. Since it’s too hot to run outside in Atlanta, the gym was nice to have as a back up. It had weights, cardio and a machine. The room was quiet. Parking is in an underground garage attached to the hotel. Be aware of the spaces, they are narrow and have pillars that make navigation challenging. Someone hit my rental car in the lot and didn’t leave their information. Parking is $10/d. Lots of food within walking distance. Only 2.5mi from Emory Hospital. Thankful to Quentin who was helpful as we had to keep extending our stay.“
