    Hole in the wall BBQ spot. They have huge tables so if you're there with family and friends you will all fit! This joint is a bit off the beaten path but depending on your taste buds you might be thankful. They offer breakfast and BBQ early in the morning. Our mouths encountered ribs, collared greens, pancakes, grits, oatmeal and fried catfish at 10am! The collared greens were by far my favorite! Homemade everything including the syrup. The service is like going to your auntie's house. They do not offer anything that's not already on the menu.

    It's rare to find these kind of places anymore. Had a morning flight and we decided to stop by for some truly authentic southern food. Service was wonderful and food came out delicious and quickly. You can see why this place was busy - when you come here you feel at home and know that the food will be made with love. (Not to mention - we got a ton of food and the bill was inexpensive) Highly, highly recommend, especially if you are heading to the airport. They have early morning hours and much better than the airport food by far!

    Pulled pork plate
    Mark W.

    Could not ask for a friendlier staff. Rustic true bbq restaurant feel. Several of the side items are only available certain days. I got sweet tea that was excellent. Pulled pork that unfortunately was on the dry side. Collard greens were spot on, fried okra was good but not homemade and topped it all off with the best part of the meal, sweet potato souffle which had raisins in it.

    Complimentary corn  bread

    While visiting I wanted to try some good down home southern cooking and thought to myself, "this place is it!". Upon entering we were barely greeted by one of the servers who told us to seat ourselves anywhere. Ambience was cool with that old southern divey feel. Our server took her time getting to us and was not very friendly nor did she check up on us very often (what happened to southern hospitality?). We started off with a complimentary order of corn bread. I ordered the two fried chicken breast special with three sides (squash casserole, greens, and mashed with gravy) & my friend ordered the pork and brisket special with beans, some kind of stew, and coleslaw. Portions were very generous and the prices were very reasonable but the taste was very bland! I had to add barbecue sauce to my fried chicken to give it some flavor and some hot sauce to the greens. The mashed potatoes were the worst as they had no salt and no pepper. The squash casserole tasted as if scrambled eggs were mixed in with it and watery as well. We were gonna order banana pudding for dessert but decided to skip it. Aside from the food not being tasty, we didn't feel welcomed there as both our server was very cold and the cashier said not one word to us. Very disappointing experience all the way around.

    Rib Tips

    This is a nice family establishment with a family feel to it. I felt like i was eating at my aunties house for Sunday Dinner. I loved the amount of food they give you, but the rin tips were a tad bit dry. The sides were definitely the best part of the meal. The Service was great! Our server was friendly quick and extremely nice. I wull definitely try this again, because they have different menus daily. I love that.

    Country Fried Steak Sandwich
    Stephen M.

    The name of the establishment intrigued me enough so I ordered it via food delivery app. I requested condiments, literally said "any condiment" and didn't get any, so I was left eating some rather dry sandwiches. The country fried steak sandwich tasted really good but it's just bread and a fried piece of steak, nothing impressive. The brisket was decent and the smoked sausage is avoidable.

    I've been to ATL multiple times and I never knew this place existed. I have to say it was really good all the home cooked vegetables you could imagine. I really wanted some good vegetables and I got just what I needed okra, corn, & tomatoes, smothered squash and onions, black eyed peas, cornbread, and fried chicken wings and some turkey salad for later. Even the ice tea was delicious. I will definitely be going back. It was clean and everyone was nice and friendly. Great Food and Customer Service!!!

    Differed angle of mold

    I tried to find a new bbq place today because I felt like ribs. My order was placed and I waited about 15 mins before being told they were out of ribs. So I substituted for rib tips. When I got to my car and took at look at the rib tips, I looked at it like ....wth is this. I guess this must be a new take on tips. Because I wanted ribs, I went to Hattie Bs. Back to this place. On top of that disappointment, I was got a Sweet Potatoe pie. I opened the pie wrapping and lo and behold , MOLD ON THE PIE. OMG. NEVER AGAIN. I'm done!!!

    Salmon Patty Sandwich
    Keith S.

    Went in around 2pm on Father's Day and was able to get a table right away. Just like other reviews I agree that the food could use a little seasoning, but adding your own salt and pepper will do just fine. Salmon patty was good, I'll get it separately without the sandwich and mix it into the bowl of grits next time. Turkey sausage sandwich was good, I recommend adding a scrambled egg, cheese and some jelly to go with it. Got all this for less than $25 so I think it's well worth it. Come here if you want a lot for a little bit, definitely left satisfied. Giving it 3 stars because this somewhere I can come for a guaranteed meal, but I wouldnt rush to recommend or take somebody here if I wanted to give them an experience.

    Burned fried chicken livers

    To say this food is garbage would be an insult to garbage. Chicken livers were burned, tuff and unseasoned. But at least they perfectly matched the disgusting sides. Mushy rutabagas, half cooked fried okra and lumpy nasty mashed potatoes. A definite Do Not Eat Here for me.

    Pork Plate with baked beans, stew and coleslaw
    Michael T.

    I love coming down to the airport and finding little gems. The BBQ Kitchen is one of these. Got the pork Plate, served with baked beans, stew and coleslaw with a side of cornbread muffins. The Good; The shredded Pork is very moist and quite tasty. I wish the sauce would have been on the side, but not that big of a deal. The stew is a traditional Brunswick Stew, nothing out of the ordinary here. It's even better with the cornbread The coleslaw is great, not too "mayonnaisey" The not so good; The Baked Beans has fresh bell pepper, but could definitely use a little more time for all the flavors to meld together. The sauce is good, but as I said before, would prefer it on the side. Overall, you will be happy with the pork here. Generous portions and great flavor.

    Rib tips
    Janet M.

    I saw the menu and walked over from my hotel and found a very old restaurant, so...I had some high hopes! I ordered the 1 item plate with 3 vegetables and a side of rib tips. The fried fish was ok, mashed potatoes and gravy was bland, cream corn was bland, greens were mediocre, cornbread was dry, and rib tips were horrible...... the sauce was too vinegary and tips were so hard and dry, it was like eating beef jerky. My $28 would have been better spent at KFC...I was quite disappointed. The only thing that was good was the carrot cake and the buttermilk coconut pie.

For the most part, people seemed to enjoy it so I was convinced I should check it out. The restaurant is located inside of the Hilton airport Hotel. There is a secure parking lot that requires you to pull a ticket when you enter. The restaurant will validate the parking ticket for you ! When I walked in I was greeted by a staff member and seated immediately. Shortly after I was seated my wait staff came over and introduced herself. She took my drink order and said she would allow me time to look over the menu. I asked my wait staff her thoughts on the Mac and cheese. I am picky about eating Mac and cheese from places. Most don't know how to make real Mac & cheese ( if you know what I mean)! She told me it was pretty solid. - As such I ordered the following: Crab bisque Smoked chicken wing plate served with two sides: Mac & cheeses and asparagus were my picks! The crab bisque did take a long time to come out. It was so delayed that my main course came out shortly after the soup. It was not ideal, but I made it work! The crab bisque was solid. I would order it again. The wing plate also exceeded my expectations! I was impressed with the mac and cheese. The asparagus were large, which was concerning to me! Like how did they get so big? Steroids? Nonetheless, they were cooked to perfection! I did get the banana pudding to go- this was the only item I would not order again! It was basic and I only took a few bites and ended up trashing it . Overall I would reconned this spot! Service was spot on- and for a hotel restaurant the food is pretty good!
