    First time coming here and it was a bit confusing ordering the food. It was a great experience and the food was delicious. We got 2 smothered pork chops, macaroni, greens, dressing, cornbread and a peach lemonade. I don't really like the restaurants in Atlanta but this one was a hit. FINALLY, food with flavor. Reminded me of home

    My family and I went to Atlanta on April 12, on my birthday, we had a ball, and got hungry but we didn't just want to eat any where. Search google and Big Daddy's Kitchen came up in 2-locations. We went to the one on Campbellton Road, OH MY GOD, everything was good, ox tails, jerk wings, catfish, fried wings, and collard greens, sweet potatoes, you name it they cook it. We are planning another visit and Big Daddy is on the list. If your in Atlanta for fun or business go see Big Daddy'n

    Walked into to see 3 tables of homemade cakes, the servers plus cashier were so helpful in all the choices of food, the restaurant is clean with comfortable booths to sit back, relax and ENJOY every bite full of deliciousness

    Idk what's up with the reviews on this spot but I absolutely loved it. The service was great and the food was delicious. It's a pretty unassuming little place, almost looks buffet style but honestly it was A1.

    Dressing, dry Mac & Cheese, pork chop & muffin.

    The food was ok. I would not go back. The dressing was salty with heavy sage. The Mac & cheese was dry with heavy pepper taste. The fried pork chop was good. For the price I am disappointed being that the only thing in my meal was the pork chop and muffin. The place is clean and the ladies working the line and register was some what dismissive. Not a great customer service experience. My first and last time visiting this place.

    It's a yes for me! Service could be better, but you can not deny the flavors of good ol soul food cooking! Big Daddy's Kitchen is bringing it! At this point I had the turkey wings and Bbq chicken plates with the same mac& cheese and collard greens. The greens are amazing and consistent and they speak to my soul-lol This is happy food, I just wish the service matched the cooking.

    We arrived right before the Saturday lunch rush. The staff got everyone thru the line quick and easy. This location is clean and spacious and the food was on point. The smothered pork chops, fried chicken and oxtails were delicious. The sides were also delectable. Big Daddy's gets 5 stars from us!

    The service was excellent, friendly staff, and food is great . First time visiting family in Atlanta and was looking for southern food this was the first place that popped up that was near. I purchased the lunch special Meatloaf, Mac n cheese, and greens. The flavor in everything is good . Also tried the famous lemonade that comes in a variety of flavors to choose from. Sweet and good. If anyone hasn't traveled to Atl yet, I definitely recommend trying out Big Daddys Kitchen. Good is great

    Nothing was fresh.. and the women working on the line looked really messy in their uniforms. Disappointed. Maybe it's the location.

    I can't believe it took me so long to eat at Delilah's! I've known of this highly lauded business…read morefor years but never found the right day when I was craving soul food and in the area to order. Until recently. I decided to have a tapas-style dinner with food from The Works and just had to grab some chicken from Delilah's. The menu is plentiful without being overwhelming, except when it comes to picking a favorite between the flavorful options. I knew that I didn't want or need a full meal and opted for their 3 whole wing option that came paired with cornbread. The young man who took my order was so polite and patient, as there were a few folks in line and waiting for previously placed orders. He let me know that my order would be ready in about 15 minutes so I took the time to continue my food-finding journey around the market. When I returned later, I had lost track of time and figured I'd just poke my head around their stall to see if my chicken was ready. It wasn't at that moment but I took some time to observe the process. There was only one guy in the open kitchen and prep area creating all of the meals and he was on the move. If I could add smells to my review, this one would smell like fried chicken and cornbread. It was all so fresh! When my order was ready, I only made one other stop before heading to my car to go home to my family... but not before I tested those whole wings from Delilah's. When I say that they were fresh out of the grease? Babehhh. It's like he just threw them right into the basket only seconds before. It was sooo crunchy, so juicy, just a fantastic wing. The hot sauce was a nice pairing but some spice in the breading/meat would have taken it over the top but this chicken was delicious. No notes.

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.
