Soul Food Restaurants near Smyrna, GA

“The food was great and the staff was too!!“

“I recently ordered takeout from This Is It! Southern Kitchen and it was absolutely delicious! I got the chitterlings dinner with greens and yams for a friend, and I ordered the greens with mac and cheese for myself. We both loved every bite. The chitterlings were tender and flavorful, the greens were perfectly seasoned, and the yams were sweet and satisfying. The mac and cheese was creamy and rich—true comfort food done right.

This Is It! is a fantastic soul food restaurant that truly lives up to its name. Everything tasted homemade and full of love. We’ll definitely be back!“

“The food was okay, but unfortunately, there were a few issues. They forgot to include 🥄 in the bag,😀🙄✌️ which was inconvenient. I placed my order ahead of time, but still had to wait 15–20 minutes after arriving, even though I drove 20 minutes to get there.(Highway OTR)Please try to have the food ready on time in the future. It would really improve the experience.
Love my Haitian food till death“

“Great atmosphere and good food…“

“First time visiting the restaurant with my husband. Taylor was our server, she was very pleasant and helpful with suggesting entrees. I ended up trying the turkey wings with cabbage. It was so flavorful. My husband had the Mardi Gras pasta which was another great choice. We will definitely be back. Thanks Taylor. See you again real soon.“

“5-star Restaurant Food Cheaply priced for top-tier culinary refined extraordinary food. This is a hidden gem from Atlanta's chief that has cooked for many celebrities and dignitaries. What is most important is that his dishes are designed just for us. Enjoy your restaurant food as a takeaway without the hassle of waiting for a table without the additional cost at Five Points and Plaza on Broad Street. The Mac and cheese are divine! It is a must-have on your plate. If you are going to have two side items, you better include the Collier Greens with the Mac and Cheese. Those tender, mouth-watering, perfectly seasoned green with the aroma that is reminiscent of holidays and Sunday dinner being cooked in the kitchen. I told the owner and Chief Bryant “Chef Baul” Williams that his Mac and Cheese and Greens made me want to go home and question my grandmother's Mac and cheese and Greens. He looked into my eyes and said, "No... Franco don't do that. " He knew that was grounds for Grandma to disown me with one backhand slap. I can't put in words how good the crispy batter of the fish that falls apart on your plate once your folks cut into it. I have to emphasize the seasoning, the flavor, the touch is so delightful and tasty that I refuse to dilute the dish by putting any type of condiments on it. I couldn't tell the difference between this fish and any fish from some of the best seafood restaurants in Savannah, GA that I have had. Whatever you get is going to be an excellent buy. I have been running through the menu like a mailman running from a pit bull thinking, "What's next!" If you buy lobster, fish, wings, or turkey, of anything it is date night restaurant food. The food is a reflection of Chelf Baul global and culinary experience that should have a location on Chicago's "Magnificent Mile" and Los Angeles Rodeo Drive. All too often, many people come to Atlanta and stand on the shoulders of Atlanta's spirit to support businesses when the individuals are not from Atlanta nor identify with their customers. Whatever you do, don't miss out on the wonderful experience food experience. There are so many options on the menu. A true Ginuwine Atlanta native who speaks your language and knows your heart, soul, palate, and stomach that has perfected Georgia, southern cuisine, national, and international dishes. Don't support him because he is an independent Black business owner, support him because the food is so good that you will question every dish that you have had until you taste Binky's. Binky's is the place to go.“

“as a truck driver i know good food is hard to find,, but,........this food is delicious, flavored right and everything, even the tea is great. thanks for taking time with your food. my new go to place.“

“It's a food truck. It's hard to find good fried fish in Cobb. I ordered the fried whiting with sides of collards and rice n beans. The fish was fried and seasoned perfectly, not salty at all. The rice and beans were the best I ever had. I wonder if they sell a pint size of the rice and beans. The collards were good, too. I loved the food, a good value for the money. I will definitely stop by the next time I'm in that part of town.“

“The food was great! The drinks was strong and good! The down fall came when we recd our check. The waitress did a great job but she decided to add her tip to our total instead of allowing us to provide our tip. Our meal was $74, the total she gave us was $120. By the way, on the menu it stats tips and gratuity not included, we felt robbed by her action and will not be back to this establishment.“

“I had catfish, collards, and the BEST fried okra I've ever had tonight at the Dunwoody Food Truck Event at Brooks Run Park. Every bite of this dinner was fabulous!!! 10 out of 10“

“Love this place EVERYTHING tasted exactly as it should 🙂‍↕️💯 NAOMI WAS A QUICK AND FAST SEVER SHE WAS VERY ATTENTIVE DESPITE HANDLING MULTIPLE TABLES AND STILL GREETED US WITH A SMILE 10/10 service“

“I ordered fried green tomatoes!! When I tell you these are the best I have ever tasted!!! I have always loved them but this is a whole new love!!!“

“Magic City Kitchen lived up the the hype with its wings. I don’t even know where to get as good of wings in Atlanta. The LouWill Lemon Pepper bbq flavor was the perfect taste and the Sweet Potato Fries were even great.FYI, they have a beyond burger as a vegan option.“

“all the food they have is 1000 good i love it“

“We had the Crab Cakes, Fried Perch, Hush Puppies and Red Beans and Rice. Food was great. Look forward to going back“

“What can I say… the food AMAZING. Customer service…. BEYOND AMAZING! This was my first time at this establishment and I was not disappointed at all! My friend ordered the strawberry shortcake French Toast and I was skeptical to try it because I figured it would be too sweet. But nope. It was PERFECT. It reminded me of a cream cheese pastry but more fluffy, flavorful, and with sweetness of strawberries. I ordered the salmon croquettes and scrambled eggs. Both dishes were cooked to perfection! I’m not a fan of everyone’s salmon croquettes (I only like my mom’s) but these were seasoned so well that I didn’t need my usual mustard and hot sauce LOL! Needless to say, the food, ambience, and customer service were absolutely amazing. I will definitely be back! Chef Marlo is a BEAST in that kitchen!!!“

“Amazing food, wonderful and welcoming staff. Very inexpensive.“

“I was not happy with my food at all today. I’m not sure what happened but everything was cold I had to put salt on it all and my turkey wings didn’t have any seasoning on it. This is the first time I’ve had a complaint about the food. I hope Someone was just having an off day.“

“I recently had the most incredible meal that completely blew me away. The flavors were vibrant and perfectly balanced, with every bite offering something new and exciting. The dish was a delightful fusion of spices, cooked to perfection, and left me savoring every last bite. It was a meal I won’t soon forget, and I’m already looking forward to having it again!“

“Came in for a dessert and left with a feast! Figured out I was hungrier than just dessert and asked for recommendations. Great recommendations and with a brief conversation I was sold. 10-15 minutes later what's sitting in front of me smells delicious. I opened it up to do a quick taste test there and almost sat down to eat the whole thing. Ask for the lemon/ginger liqueur, wild ride of flavors.“

“I absolutely loved EVERYTHING ❤️“

“All the way from O H I O...just moving to Marietta didn't want to cook and right down the street I found delicious 😋 soul food. Thanks Tamika“
