“We visited this restaurant at the invitation of one of the customers of SWC Contracting, We were not let down. The food was made with a tasty southern flair and each dish had my taste buds wondering what could be better than the last bite. We arrived about 6:30pm it was a little busy but not crowded and we were seated straight away by our waitress Tabitha, Her personality was bubbly and refreshing. We had our drinks and first dishes out within 7 minutes of our order. I can't say enough about the service, Tabitha if you read this,.. Just WoW!!! The food really is SECOND to NONE. When we want homecoming we usually visit a larger chain but after today this place has won my business for southern cooking and it is cooked at its finest.. I hope you all visit this place and have the experience we had,.. and I would ask for Tabitha if I was you.. P.S. Bring your appetite..“

“I visited this restaurant on a Thursday evening and the restaurant had a brisk clientele. The waitress came to our table immediately and asked for our drink orders and brought them back very quickly. I ordered the above items and in less than 15minutes i had my order and it was hot and seasoned to perfection. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that wants a quick wholesome meal, with all taste you remember from growing up.“

“the owner is so respectful and caring. I recommend this place over any place.the atmosphere is a grown folk vibe. I give this place 10,10,10,and 10“

“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.“

“I’m a true Atl native and the food was so good ! TY for making it like home .“

“The food reminded me of Sunday lunches at my grandmother's home. And the banana pudding - none of that jello stuff - made from a dessert roux. Delicious!“

“I’ve came here with a couple times with some friends and it’s always been amazing, but this last time, my server, Sienna, made the experience that much better!!! She was attentive and made our experience even memorable because of her humor and kindness. I will be back and I will be asking for her again!!!!“

“Love this place ! Awesome food and drinks!“

“Super friend staff and amazing food! Everyone was so friendly and helpful but, most importantly, the food was SO good! My husband and I both got different omelets and both were so good.

Perfect little brunch atmosphere and set up! ❤️ You can not visit Lake Tahoe and pass this honey up!“

Surprised management doesn’t staff better for this type of facility, especially for business guest on a schedule. I look forward to coming here again.“

“I love the little touches, like the framed pictures on the wall — it gives the space such a neat and welcoming feel.

This is one of the cleanest restaurant bathroom I’ve ever seen. The toilet area is spotless and everything feels fresh and well cared for.

You can tell the team here takes pride in keeping things not only sanitary but also inviting. Their food is amazing and healthy. Big thumbs up to Chicken Salad Chick for setting the bar high! 👏✨“

“I’ve been going to Chicken Salad Chick for a while now and have never had any complaints. The food is always fresh, delicious, and consistent, and the place is clean and welcoming every single time.

But what truly sets this location apart is Fernando. Whether he’s at the cashier or working in the back, he’s always there with a smile and an incredibly polite attitude. He genuinely goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service. Need something? Fernando’s already on it. It’s rare to come across someone who consistently brings that kind of energy and care to their job, and it really makes a difference.

Massive props to him and the whole team. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the area!“

“I love chicken salad chick. The croissant was really hard & my sandwich was a little dry. I requested for xtra mayo. Could have been packs or anything.
Fancy Nancy is what I ordered.
The potato soup was great as usual.
No one greeted me, it was late evening and I had a online pickup order.“

“Hannah's Kitchen is the best deal in Atlanta. $11 for a meat entree plus 2 sides plus cornbread AND drink. The best dishes are baked chicken (best I've ever had), beef tips & rice (best I've ever had) and pork chops. The entree/side dishes list changes daily, so you won't get bored with the same food each day. We need more places like this. I eat here 3-4 times a week. They have customers who eat both breakfast AND lunch everyday of the week. Customer services is friendly and super fast. You can be in and out of there within 30 minutes full and satisfied.“

“We ordered Thanksgiving dinner from Secreto! It was over the top! So well done! Love this restaurant and highly recommend!“

“super delicious y limpiolo recomiendo“

“I am so glad I found this gem!! I just moved to Atlanta from Boston (where there’s Haitian food everywhere) so I was little bummed out that there aren’t really Haitian spots out here. But my girlfriend found this place on IG and sent it my way. I ordered online and got the griot plate which comes with the diri kole (rice and beans) and the banan peze (fried plantains) with a side of salad and pikliz. Also ordered a side of the j*** chicken pasta which came with some delicious bread, my order also came with a lemonade and it was one of the best lemonade I ever had. EVERYTHING was delicious the griot was cooked very well still nice and tender people tend to overcook griot but this here was perfect! Portion is great! It’s a 10/10 for me and will not mind making that 30+ minute drive in Atlanta traffic to get it.My only suggestion would be to give the sauce on the side as opposed to putting it on the rice and having Dressing for the salad.Thank you Ted for a great meal, you definitely have a frequent customer now.“

“We are from out of town, visiting the nearby amphitheator. And when we saw the name of this place, we simply couldn't resist. And boy, are we glad we didn't. The atmosphere of the place, from the jump, is awesome. The staff, beyond perfect. Our waiter was perfect. Our entire experience was perfect. The grits - to cry for. The biscuits - perfect. The pancakes - delisious. Literally everything about this place was right on the money. We suggest it to anyone swinging through Alpharetta area. It will not let you down!“

“Ford’s is DA BEST! I think I’ve tried almost every dish at this point and each was better than the last. Friendliest staff ever, too. Must go! 🤩“

“Good biscuits. I was in recently with my daughter and niece. My daughter and I both got 'The Squawking Goat'. I wish I had taken a picture because there was a distinctive difference in size for each of our biscuits and chicken. The girls hat for me to take pics of our food but I wish I had as it demonstrates a lack of some consistency in the kitchen. They were still good and tasted as expected. My niece enjoyed her breakfast bowl as well. The toffee latte is far too sweet. I ended up having to put some black coffee in it to make it less so.“

“Beware..employee made unauthorized charges on my credit card.“

“We catered my sister’s wedding day brunch for 2 locations - bachelorette group and bachelor group. DN tailored the menu for both groups and delivered to both locations. The food paring was great and catfish/grits were delicious! Definitely a keeper for future events!!!“

“My son and I went to this wonderful restaurant for lunch today. We both had the Crab Cakes and they were the best I have ever had. We started out with an appetizer of pimento cheese and pita bread. The pimento cheese was definitely homemade! Service was great and we will be going back soon!“

“Love the space and atmosphere. The service and bar selection was very good. Even some very expensive access to select scotch and whiskeys.The food was actually very enjoyable and tasty. Hot as well as fresh served.The silver headed bar tender, so mad at myself for loss of his name...,( Great conversations and engagement.“
