    Big Back Cornbread Bowl with Hot Honey & Pulled Turkey & Shrimp

    I had to call them and let them know how amazing the food was. I called about 3 food spots before I found them and no one answered. I saw this spot on maps and gave them a call, received great customer service and recommendations. The owner is very kind. I was in a rush and he made my order very fast. Portion sizes are perfect. Seasoning is perfect. I had the big back cornbread bowl and it was insanely amazing. I plan to come back to try basically everything else! Picture came from a video so its a bit crooked but this is worth the money. Probably 2-3 people can split this but that wouldn't be big back of them, now would it?

    When I tell you Atlanta Turkey Legs is gonna hit everytime and I mean EVERYTIME! I first got to try them last year at Jump-off Juneteenth event, anytime I see them at any event they are my go to food choice. Their turkey legs are always flavorful and juice, Mac & cheese is delicious with collard greens that have a kick to it! If you want the best of their menu please try their big back bowl ( turkey,greens,Mac & cheese,Kandi yams with cornbread) chefs kiss. The staff is always friendly no matter have busy they are at an event or even at their takeout location I. Which they finally moved in the city right in midtown Their takeout location can get really busy as it's a share kitchen space but it's clean and quick once your order is ready.

    I've always wanted to give this place a try, so I decided to visit on a Sunday afternoon. Ordered my food at 12:23 pm and didn't receive it until 1:40 pm although the confirmation said it would be ready by 12:55 pm. I ordered the BBQ smoked turkey leg with collard greens and baked beans. The beans were a bit too sweet for my liking; I prefer a tangy taste. The turkey leg and greens were a 10/10. Had to knock down one star for the beans. Everything else was great.

    Okay! ...(pause for emphasis and dramatization lol) this was delicious tasting food!! We ordered the lemon pepper turkey leg with Mac and cheese yams and collards. I don't even eat yams, but i did yesterday I ordered them because the sides list was limited and i didn't want baked beans with the meal i had and i knew if i didn't like them my man would eat them. The collards were good as well; a little spicy but not too spicy I couldn't eat or enjoy them. My nose just ran a little. Now the turkey legs were fall off the bone tender and fell off into this lemon pepper sauce.... Yummy!! The portion size for the sides are okay as well. Oh and o forgot, I also ordered a pan of the cornbread!!! Pause again... I ate one slice before i even ate my meal and then another slice with my meal lol. It gives Jiffy, but with jalapeño's. There's no ambiance to discuss because there is no sit down dining. Also, it's located in somewhat of a creepy place because it's behind a building. We arrived when it was dark and i believe i would've been uncomfortable if i were by myself. I'll add that I'm not familiar with that area. We drove about 29 minutes to get there; no traffic. The service was good. I didn't check the box for curb side pick up but lucked up and got it anyway. The guy was bringing another persons food out and walked to our car and asked our name and said the order was coming up. Not sure if this is standard or if it was only because they arrived at my car before the person whose food they had in the bag.

    Lobster Mac

    Why they play in our face like this? $23 and change for a side of Mac A SIDE..... I'm so pissed NEVER AGAIN. FYI this is not your traditional restaurant you place your order on a kiosk and await for them to place it in a locker for pick up when ready. There's nobody there to complain to or address your concerns.

Once my party and I arrived, it took Mr. Ross nearly 10 minutes to greet us. By the time he came over, we were already prepared to order. Our food and drinks arrived, but after that, Mr. Ross never returned to check on our table or ask if we needed refills. Instead, he spent close to 30 minutes standing at the bar talking with friends who were dining there. When he finally came back, we were so frustrated that we simply asked for the check. Even then, our drinks were never refilled. This level of service was very disappointing and unacceptable, especially on a Monday when the restaurant was not busy.

This time, though, service...sub-par. I've been when the crowd was popping and service was still at a premium This time was below what Virgil's has offered previously. Water glass had food stuck to inside the glass. I asked Z to replace. 10min later another server brought our food and I asked if she could replace but she said she'll let our waiter know, 10min later we informed the manager who looks like one of the owners and he said he'll get right on it. 5min later Z returned and asked if there was anything else...still no water. Again I had to ask for water but this time togo since I had finished my meal. I only wanted to leave a 10 to 15% tip but the bill came PRE-TIPPED Anyhoo, I'll be back

    We were in town for a concert and my birthday, and decided to go for a nice breakfast for my…read morebirthday. Did some online research and kept coming back to Buttermilk Kitchen. Couldn't have been happier with our choice. Reviews I'd seen online mentioned parking is a bit limited and that the restaurant is frequently busy. So we were prepared for that even though we were going on a Thursday mid morning. I think there was an influx of people celebrating graduations because it was in fact very busy. However we got very lucky with parking and happened to come in right as someone was leaving. I was sure we would have a wait for a table, which of course would have been fine, but actually we were seated immediately! Which was super nice and unexpected. The atmosphere is bustling but not in a bad way. The restaurant itself is adorable and has a lot of character. It feels like you're having breakfast at an old friend's house. The service was great and our food came out in a very reasonable amount of time. I ordered a specialty coffee, I believe it was the almond joy cold brew, and it was delicious. Strong, which is how I like it and not overly sweet. I ordered the chicken biscuit on the waiter's recommendation and it was absolutely the best fried chicken I've ever had. Juicy and crispy. My husband ordered the pimento cheese omelette and was very happy with it, the bacon was thick cut and smoky and flavorful. The pimento cheese grits that came on the side for me were also a stand out, such great flavor. The biscuits are fantastic and the blueberry basil jam that came with my husband's meal was such a nice touch. We will absolutely make a point to come back to Buttermilk Kitchen next time we visit the Atlanta area.

    TL;DR: Super cute spot with decent breakfast offerings and great staff. Don't go out of your way to…read morecome, but worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood. First things first: the Chicken Biscuit. Buttermilk Kitchen's biscuit is on the crunchy, honey-flavored side. I personally prefer fluffier, more buttery biscuits, so this one wasn't my favorite. That aside, the chicken was crispy and well-seasoned and paired well with the cheese grits. If you ever wanted a dry, crunchy version of Homegrown's Comfy Chicken Biscuit, come give this a shot. I also tried the Hash Bowl, which was a bit underwhelming. It was a *lot* of potatoes compared to the eggs and bacon bits, and there wasn't a lot of seasoning other than the bacon. Would rather recommend one of the other options if you end up visiting. The drinks are good as well, would recommend the matcha latte (not too sweet!) and the French Press coffee.

    WAS THIS A HIT OR MISS ???…read more It was a HIT I have been dying to try this place out for years and I figured I planned a lunch with a friend so we could spend the afternoon chitchatting and this was the perfect spot. So we were warmly greeted and then taken to a quiet table in the corner that had the whitest tablecloths. It looked rather chic Then we had the best server. She checked on us numerous times, didn't rush us and offered suggestions. She kept our table clear of mayhem from empty plates and glasses. Now the food was delicious. It was so good. The chicken was moist and the outside was crispy. The mashed potatoes melted in my mouth. Plus, we had a slice of 7up cake for dessert. I high recommend this place. They have valet parking that is only $2. Great place to visit. Until next time.

    Location Carries, Great for Clients, Not for Value…read more Location, location, location. That's the story here. This spot earns its 4 stars largely because of the setting and service. Right in the heart of Buckhead with a beautiful view great energy, well-dressed crowd, and a strong place for a work lunch or client meeting. Service was solid, no complaints there. I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take. Overall: 4/5 great setting, just comes at a premium.
