“Visited this past weekend and everything was delicious. I had the creamy cat grilled. The grits were so creamy! Made with love ❤️ the fish was nicely seasoned and not overly so. We also had fried green tomatoes and fried donuts that reminded you of beignets. I’ll definitely be back! The bartender was on his job too! My Bellini did everything it was meant to do!“

“Amazing customer service. A variety of items on the menu. I had the catfish and grits. Fish seasoned well and fried hard like I like it. Grits were very creamy and thick and seasoned to perfection. Definitely will return. Also tried the sweet potato pancake and it was delicious.“

“The waitress and cook were nice. The food was delicious. No complaints.“

“Peaches and her cook were awesome. The 2pm to 9pm staff were great. They even remade my cheese grits to make them fresh and hot vs. cold and lumpy. To top it things off and for the win they actually had chocolate milk! ? S/N - So many locations do not have chocolate milk.

Kid-friendliness: It the Waffle House! They are always kid friendly. ?

Wheelchair accessibility: It the Waffle House! They are always wheelchair accessible for entry, exit, and low counter top seating. ?“

“Center of Hope Women Embracing Women gathering was amazing. It was a Vibe Service & Food was a 10.“

“First time here. The peach cobbler cinnamon roll is DIABOLICALLY DELICIOUS!! It's so good it'll piss you off while you're doing a happy dance!! From this small town soul to this big city joint, my heart left very full and very happy. Keep up the good work!!“

“Let's just say they asked us to give them a 5 star rating and if we do we get 5 percent off... But the food was warm, the food was over priced, the server tried to charge us for items we didn't receive and my daughter got potatoes with her order . My daughter told the server she wanted onions and pepper . She brings out the potatoes with no opinions or pepper.Then she proceeded to lie in my daughter's face and say they're in there. She said where??? Then she leaves and goes back and says we're out of them. But you just lied and said they're in my daughter's potatoes when clearly there wasn't any on them.. I can go on and on with the issues me and my daughter had there. And the manager didn't come over and say anything.... Mannn I be trying to support my black own business but mannnn have to be and do better ....“

“Came in for a late breakfast and left full, happy, and with a great local rec for a Halloween parade. Folk Art keeps things simple and satisfying, with food that’s rich and filling without trying too hard.

I ordered the chorizo omelette and cheese grits. The omelette was solid—loaded with just the right amount of heat and not greasy. The grits were creamy and held their texture, not runny or bland like you sometimes get with sides.

What stood out just as much as the food was the service. Our server was quick, easy to talk to, and genuinely helpful. When we asked about local events, they casually mentioned the Halloween parade and gave us a heads up on timing and crowd size. That kind of local touch makes a spot feel like part of the neighborhood, not just another brunch stop.

The space has that lived-in charm—busy but not chaotic, and everyone around seemed to be enjoying their food. No long wait, which was a nice surprise on a weekend.

If you’re in the area and want a strong brunch option with real hospitality and comfort food that holds up, Folk Art delivers.“

“I had a wonderful brunch at this location. Not only was the food delicious and served up in a timely manner but the service was impeccable. My waitress was attentive and polite and the general manager even stopped by to make sure that everything was going well. The restaurant was very clean and well maintained. I ordered pancakes and a delicious green juice. My server was very attentive to my allergies and allowed me to make substitutions in my meal to accommodate my nut allergy. This is a must stop brunch spot when you were in Atlanta.“

“Kiss My Gritz in Fairburn, GA, offers an exceptional dining experience that truly stands out. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a memorable meal. The food was delicious, showcasing authentic flavors and generous portions that left us completely satisfied.

A special shoutout goes to Carrington (apologies if we spelled it wrong), whose outstanding service made our first visit truly remarkable. She is clearly an invaluable asset to the team, combining professionalism, friendliness, and attentiveness in a way that enhanced our entire experience. Carrington’s welcoming attitude and genuine care made us feel right at home, and we are grateful for her exceptional hospitality.

As new residents of Fairburn, we are thrilled to have discovered Kiss My Gritz and look forward to many more visits. Thanks to Carrington and the entire staff, this restaurant has quickly become one of our favorites in the area. We highly recommend Kiss My Gritz to anyone seeking great food and top-notch service.“

“Breakfast is AMAZING in this restaurant. The restaurant serves delicious shrimp and grits, salmon croquettes, and grits. LARGE fried lobster tails in a martini glass. They also highlight the generous portions, unmatched flavors, and relaxing atmosphere with good music.

I am calling people to take me out just to go back.

Only draw back was the 18% gratuity automatically charged to you, then tax and then requested a tip for the servers. Then if you use a credit card you are also charged a fee.

Worth the money“

“Great food and service. Natalie, the manager at the Barrington location, is amazing and always goes above and beyond to accommodate our requests! Highly recommend the Barrington location! Wonderful outdoor patio for breakfast and lunch.“

“We love Unity. Been coming here since I was 8 years old. I am now 48 years old. It has not always been the same everytime, but its still amazing. I love coming here no matter and I am not Christian, but I love the prayer and the energy. Thank you Unity for still serving ATL southern breakfast the way our family used to do.“

“I have loved Folk Art for so many years. I was delighted to learn of the Hapeville location. Great food. Friendly staff. Cool vibe. Welcoming. It would be a huge mistake to miss an opportunity to dine here or grab a drink.“

“Their rolls and donuts are always top quality!!! Next is a bacon sandwich! Last time I went in, someone was waiting for their bacon sandwich and it smelled amazing!!!!“

“Deathly an interesting place I will say that the food was a little more expensive than I anticipated especially since we are originally from DC. Overall I would recommend this place the food was definitely good, and the service was good as well.“

“First time trying the dirty bird and I was impressed.“

“The food is very good. However it is never really hot. The Grits are delicious but not hot enough even the coffee. But the food is absolutely great. Please make your food hot“

“Fried fish was the bomb. The loaded omelette that came with shrimp, chicken, bacon and sausage was delicious. Operationally there could be some improvements. I don’t think the kitchen has the right kitchen fan to circumvent the smoke. The door was open to let some of the smoke out and it was cold that day. The server was sweet and attentive but she we had to get our order corrected twice. My grits were cold and my fish was room temp but it was still good. The beignets were so good but only came with 3 in one order. Overall I will be back, the food was good, service good and the prices were amazing.“

“I had just the perfect time during my lunch break. The service staff was courteous, the food was great, and the ambiance was naturally pleasant. Soul food in Forest Park...

Parking: Parking can be challenging depending on the time and day...“

“My family and I stopped by this location to have breakfast and everything was good. The staff was friendly, the food was good and hot and the vibe was hospitable. I would recommend this location if you are looking for a good breakfast spot.“

“I have only eaten breakfast here, but it is always good and inexpensive. This more of a grab your food to go spot. Get the breakfast potatoes and the fried green tomatoes. The country steak is extra crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.“

“This was my first time trying First Watch and it was pretty busy for a Sunday afternoon (to be expected). We were advised the wait would be around 30 to 40 minutes, but sat down inside and only waited about 5 to 10 minutes before we were called to be seated.

Pictured below is the Bacado omelette with cheese grits and the Tri-fecta with cinnamon chip pancake and scrambled eggs.

We were not expecting for the pancake to be so big, but everything was delicious.

Highly worth a try if you've never been.“

“My Friend & I had Breakfast here, & it was Wonderful!!! The Service wad Very Good, & the Food was Excellent. I had the Sirloin Tips & Eggs. It was GREAT!!! The Sirloin Tips was the Tenderest Meat I've had in a Long, Long Time!! Really Delicious!!! It was a Very, Very Great Experience All the way Around!! I Highly Recommend it as a Great Place for Breakfast!!!“

“Ms. D is a godsend in the Atlanta community, specifically the Historic West End. Follow them on IG and fb for updates on live music. They cater, and rent their dining room for special events. They're also an in-restaurant full service dining room. Ate there today for brunch at about 11am, and my friend had the burrito with vegan sausage and vegan cheese replacement and devoured it. The fresh fruit bowl she got with it was so ripe and perfect! I ordered shrimp quesadillas, which were remarkable, with a yummy, very fresh and crisp green salad. They had ginger tea, caffeinated and decaf coffee. Service was excellent. They've partnered with the city of Atlanta to hire teen waitstaff throughout the summer for fair pay. Nothing is more wholesome, mom and pop, and worthy of support and celebration than a true community based business! I will always support this eatery!“

“First time coming to this pic. On Fly High Thursday, my family and I took advantage of The Flying Biscuit Café’s $5 High Flyer Breakfast deal, and it did not disappoint! Here’s what we thought of each dish.

The Eggs: I had my eggs over hard, and they were cooked perfectly without being dry. My husband went with eggs over easy, and the yolks were delightfully runny, exactly how he likes them. Our son had scrambled eggs, which were fluffy.

Sausage or Bacon: My husband and I both opted for the chicken sausage patties, which were juicy with a nice, savory flavor. My son chose bacon, and it was crispy and perfectly cooked, adding a nice crunch to his plate.

Grits: The creamy dreamy grits were the star of the plate for all of us. Smooth, rich, and buttery, they lived up to the "dreamy" name, complementing the rest of the meal beautifully.

Biscuit: The biscuits were light, fluffy, and warm, with a golden crust that practically crumbled when spread with butter. Whether with jam or plain, they were a delicious addition to the breakfast.

Waffle or Pancake: My husband had the Belgian waffle, which was crisp on the outside and soft inside—just sweet enough without being too much. My son and I both chose the buttermilk pancakes, which were thick, fluffy, and soaked up syrup wonderfully.“

“The energy in here is top tier…the staff sang for my daughter’s birthday and played music while dancing. I thought this was so dope. Thanks Bigg Patt definitely for starting it off and keeping that positive energy while working in a very busy environment. Thanks also to our waitress Toreanna for her great service. It’s not close to my house but I found my home Waffle House when I got the taste for it 😂“

“Great food and cheap. Good recommendation“

“Honestly
I only stopped by here because I had a taste for some cheese grits. And bacon 🥓 😋. The crew there was very helpful and assisted me in my order as others were also coming in. Once my order was completed I paid and I just sat in my car 🚗 and yessssss I enjoyed my meal. Now I would definitely go back again due to I appreciate the customer service that was given not only to myself but to others there.“

“The man that waited on also cooked for me and that’s the best pork chops and hash browns I’ve ever had at a Waffle House“
