Comfort Food Restaurants near Duluth, GA

“I have been long awaiting my chance to experience the Peach Cobbler Cafe and it finally happened! I was in the area last night and wanted some soul food, clearly Peach Cobbler Cafe was the win for the night. Upon walking in, I was greeted with a huge personality filled “Welcome to Peach Cobbler Cafe!” As I took in the overall ambiance, there is a mostly open floor plan. The menu was to my left as soon as you walked in which allowed me to figure out what I wanted before walking up to the register. In full transparency. I was taken aback by the prices, however, understanding that inflation is real I continued and placed my order. I decided on the Rib Tips Dinner with Macaroni and Cheese and Yams. Of course, I chose Peach Cobbler as my dessert… Upon placing my order I went to have a seat. All the booths towards the back were dirty which was odd as there was no one in the restaurant besides one other person who was towards the front. Hmmm, this made me wonder when the last wipe down was for any of the tables. Nonetheless, I decided to take my chances and have a seat. About 10 minutes after sitting down my order was ready. As you can see by the images, the presentation was amazing and the portions were a good size for $35. Let’s talk Taste: Yams - The yams tasted like doctored up canned yams. They weren’t bad overall, however, I wasn’t flavor-ly pleased with the approach to making them taste “not so canned.” On a scale of 1 - 10, I would rate them a 5. Macaroni and Cheese - The Mac and Cheese was good. Flavorful, well done, cheesy and definitely satisfied the homemade craving. On a scale of 1 - 10, I would rate this side a 7. Rib Tips - The Rib Tips were meaty, well seasoned, smokey, and tender. The sauce was mild, well flavored, and paired perfect with the smokiness of the tips and the natural presence of the pork juice. On a scale of 1 - 10, I would rate the tips an 8.3. Cornbread - The cornbread was very good. It was spongy and had a smooth texture to it. The sweetness to corn ratio was spot on which allowed for a satisfying of the sweet and salty desire. Along with the perfect flavor balance, it was buttery. Oh yeah! This is the kind of cornbread that would pair well with dinner or coffee. LoL! On a scale of 1 - 10, I would rate the cornbread a 9. Peach Cobbler - The Peach Cobbler stole the entire show. I’m talking what in the good goodness, grandma in the kitchen showing off, soul pleasing goodness. This dessert was amazing and delectable enough to make me come back for an order of Peach Cobbler all by itself. On a scale of 1 - 10, I would rate the Peach Cobbler a 10. **Sidenote, ensure to check your bag before you leave. My peach cobbler was left out of my bag originally.** Overall, my experience at Peach Cobbler Cafe wasn’t bad. For $35, I anticipated better flavor profiles amongst each dish, however, I wouldn’t be opposed to ordering a meal from here again.“

“Angelique is truly an asset to Maple Street. I’ve ordered from this restaurant for years, and I instantly noticed the difference the moment she arrived. Every dish is prepared with excellence, and the service is friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. Thanks to Angelique, my dining experience has never been better. I highly recommend Maple Street for anyone seeking outstanding food and top-notch hospitality.“

“Food was good. Customer Service was exceptional. I have not been treated with such professionalism in such a long time. Our waiter was so attentive and everyone was so nice. It rises to the top of my list just because of how they made me and my family feel while we were enjoying dinner together. Thank you!“

“Food truck; they were about to close, but went ahead and let me place my order. I had some kind of Shrimp w/ sauce, some type of rice recipe and steamed cabbage (love cabbage). I am not familiar with Jamaican food, but it seemed pretty genuine. The Shrimp was the best I have had anywhere (better than a fancy restaurant, seriously). They were cooked perfectly, and were very large and still tasted great (very impressed with the size, how they were cooked and the quantity of food). Amanda and I think Kevin, not sure, were so customer service oriented. They care about their food and customers! Thank you for making me dinner! .. will be back.“

“IT WAS FIRE… I mean snow. As in we ordered the snow cheese chicken & it was fire. I’ve eaten a lot of cheese, a lot of snow, and a lot of chicken in my life but none was as fire as this. The K Mega fries were powpin!!!! I mean like look at this photo!!!!! The price was pretty high but I still LOVED the food!!!! YOU GOTTA TRY THIS!“

“My favorite Avalon restaurant - the food is so good, and good for you too! The Korean noodle bowl is my favorite. DJ was our server tonight and he amazing! So friendly, so helpful…a great night out!“

“This is my first visit to the lazy dog. I went with a friend who had been there several times Our waitress Dawn was phenomenal She asked if we would like some suggestions which we did the suggestion she made was perfect And the service was out of this world. The food was excellent As well. I will definitely make it a point to come back“

“I ordered delivery through uber eats. Everything was still hot when it got to me. The chicken is great, 5 stars for the chicken alone. However I took a star off bc the rice and beans was not it. It was dry with dry pieces of chicken in it. Wish I just got the chicken tbh. I’d come back for JUST the chicken.“

“I just moved to Buford in July, I have stopped here a few times. I was not expecting to fall in love with this place, their food is spectacular, Today I ordered the catfish plate, I was surprised when I saw the plate because I was not expecting the amount I was given for $15. I was expecting a small piece of fish and a handful of fries, to be given a very large piece of fish and a satisfying portion of fries, it was fresh and cooked to perfection. The Waitress who served me was very friendly and nice to talk to. I will definitely be coming back here to try more of the things on their menu!!!“

“The prices online are different (less) then once you arrive and order your food. Ordered the oxtails, white rice and veggies. Oxtails were a tad bit tough and hard to get meat off bone, mind you they only gave 5 oxtails 2 medium the rest small, the stemmed veggies could have been cooked a little more however the gravy used was yummy. Some food items are on menu (online and in the restaurant) however they do not have the feature food item. Management/owner very nice and the establishment is very clean.“

“I just had one of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten from ruta 52, and I had to share how good it was. I ordered the chimi dominicano, and every bite was packed with flavor. The bread was perfectly toasted—crispy on the outside, soft inside—and the ingredients were incredibly fresh. This place clean and friendly.“

“Excellent staff, they were extremely helpful. Staff performed their duties excellently and also went out of their way to assist.
The entire hotel was very clean, I would rate it as 100% for cleanliness.
Food at the restaurant was good.
The atmosphere is one where if you want total serenity, this is the place.
The hotel is elegantly decorated.
My only drawback of here is that you need a vehicle to get to the shopping areas.“
