“Came to ATL from out of town craving some good soul food, this place DELIVERED. I am planning to travel back to ATL just to eat here again. Well done Southern Queenz ??“

“Amazing place for some new Orleans style food. The service was friendly and entertaining. The food, although a bit on the expensive side, was very good. The portion size was small compared to the pricing. However, the quality and taste was outstanding. They automatically add a 20%tip to the bill, this is mentioned on the menu so it was not a surprise. The staff worked in such harmony that the differently earned the 20% and more.If you are looking for a place with friendly staff and great food this is the place.“

“Barrio ATL is an entire VIBEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I ended up here on a Thursday. I was in the Cascade area and in the mood for tacos. After a search on Yelp Barrio ATL popped up and was where we headed for the night. As a heads up, Barrio ATL sits in the corner of the strip plaza. As such, the parking can be a bit tight so be sure to choose a space accordingly. Upon walking in, the ambiance puts you in the mindset of a trendy hookah lounge. Wall seating, chairs, and tables are to the left, and a VIP area style is to the right. The DJ is directly to the left of the VIP area and the bar area is to the left of the DJ. The building is medium-sized and build rectangular so there is ample length as compared to the width. There was no one at the Hostess booth when I walked in, however, the young lady got up from one of the tables in the back, greeted me, and quickly took us to our table. Once seated, the waitress assigned to our table came over and was super nice and welcoming. She introduced herself as Shay and went over the specials for the night. As the ambiance is more than just a casual bar, Shay’s service was superior. Her personality shined and she enhanced the overall experience of the night. Thank you, Shay! Based on the specials for the night I decided to go with the 3 Chicken Birriia Tacos for $9 (this was a great deal as they are usually $20) and a side of fries. As they didn’t have Sweet Tea on the menu I ordered a bottle of water. Shout out to Barrio ATL for serving Fiji. Ha. Babeeeeeeeeee… Here me when I tell you… I don’t know what kind of potatoes these fries were made with but they were the BOMBBBBBBBB. They were thick, perfectly fried, golden to perfection, and well seasoned. For the record, I would go back for the fries alone. LoL! The birria tacos were good as well. As this was my first time having them I don’t have anything to compare them to, however, I enjoyed the experience. The crunchiness of the taco shell with the well-seasoned chicken. The birria consomé was well seasoned and definitely enhanced the flavor of the taco, as such, for my first birria experience I enjoyed it. Furthermore, if the chicken was this good, I can’t wait to try the beef. Overall Barrio ATL is def one to add to the checklist when you are looking for a vibe. The DJ was on point, the ambiance was hittin like it needed to be, and the overall flow of the environment was ideal for a kick it/unwind/grab a drink type of vibe.“

“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.“
