    56 food rating....

    Knowing their food rating is 56 with multiple offenses! With the continued offenses this spot could cause good poisoning if they do not correct theses issues and continue with the correct protocols

    I love this place! I popped in for a quick lavender honey matcha and it was easily one of the best matchas I ever had. The staff are so sweet, inviting, and kind, and the menu is pretty extensive which is awesome. I will definitely be back soon!

    This a a cute spot to drop by to do work, school work or chill. They have an area for kids to play and a bathroom. The furniture does need to be updated / repaired. It's definitely not somewhere you go for the look. The food and coffee was tasty and staff really kind and at.

    Pretty gross the last time we went in and also their drinks just aren't good. They also forgot a coffee and then it took them a while to confirm instead of just making it. Won't go back.

    Such a cute & cozy coffee shop! Stopped in for a quick bite with the kiddos while i handled some business. Service was amazing, the food hit the spot , & the coffee was just what i needed! Would def recommend stopping by if you're in the area

    I used to like this spot but the last few times I've been here it hasn't been great. Today I ordered avocado toast and here's what I got ... 6 half slices of untoasted basic wheat bread and random avocado mush around the sides. As much as I want this place to succeed because of its great location, I likely won't be coming back!

    This was my second visit here meeting up with my dad on a quick trip to Atlanta. And I have got to say, I love this breakfast place! It's in a really neat little shopping area with plenty of parking and lovely green spaces. There is outside seating and ample inside too. It's dog friendly meaning you can actually bring your dog inside which is rare. There were so many people with their dogs. They have plenty of drink options. I got the chai tea is it was great! Yelp game me a 15% off cou one for checking in so make sure you do that and use it! I got the French toast the first time and sweet potato Pancakes the second. Both were yummy. The sweet potato pancakes would be perfect for Someone that doesn't want really sweet breakfast. Next time I'm trying the pastries. There is a large kids section and what I think might be art from local artists. Love this place!

    Egg, Meat and Cheese Sandwich

    I was being serviced at the nail salon across the street and stopped by to grab a quick bite to eat. The cafe offers both inside and outside seating though; I favored outside as inside seemed hazing and smokey. I liked how they had an area for children to entertain themselves as the cafe is extremely family friendly. The cashier that took my order lacked "that" personal touch. It could just have been personality or the fact it was in the end of the Saturday morning rush. With it being a coffeeshop and all the noises that comes with it, I wish the young lady preparing the drinks used her outside voice to announce when someone's drink was ready. The food and drink were delicious. "The Reg" consisted of bacon, egg, and, cheese in a buttery croissant. It was actually quite a filling sandwich.

    I was in the area and needed a "pick me up." I heard Cafe Lucia had good sandwiches and lattes, so I decided to stop by and see what they were about. The cafe is very spacious. There were patrons doing work while enjoying their drinks/food. I walked right up to the counter to browse the menu. The employee was very helpful and gave me a couple recommendations. I went with the Turkey Pesto Sandwich on a croissant and the Caramel King Latte. The sandwich was delicious! The latte was just ok. I would go back to try more food items and their specialty drinks. The cafe also serves mimosas, beers, and wine.

    Ok, I'm in LOVE! Can I move to Atlanta?!!! I actually went next-door to the speakeasy and got a…read moredrink, ... we intended to order dinner, but the service was so unfriendly. (I'll spare you the details, I'll give them their own review.) So I searched where else I could go and this lovely place was sitting right next-door. We were greeted by Nick when we walked in, and he was so welcoming and so cordial. We chose to sit at the bar because we just love sitting at a bar and talking with the bartender. We met Brittney at the bar and she was completely delightful! (they had no idea of difference they were making in our dinner date!) FRIED GREEN TOMATOES... do not miss these. The fried chicken and collards dish... It's signature! Do yourself a favor and order that. The drinks were lovely. I can't remember what all we ordered. And then in the end, the butter cake. Absolutely don't miss this one! If you find yourself at the restaurant next-door, and you have the opportunity... Slip out and go to South city kitchen!

    A very nice place for modern southern cuisine with exceptional service!…read more I went for dinner and the first impression I had was that the interior is very nice with good music, really suitable for a relaxing happy hour or an elevated casual dinner. Barton was my waiter and he was very friendly and thoughtful, paid attention to details, and checked in often, making the experience really great They give you free biscuits, cornbread, and butter which are pretty good, I devoured them. Very nice touch and made the whole experience elevated as well. For food, I ordered the blackberry nogrito, crab cakes, and shrimp and grits. The blackberry nogrito was very good but quite sweet, it came off as a blackberry mint mocktail similar to a mojito but the syrup flavor was a bit strong. The crab cake appetizer was delicious, probably my favorite thing! It was huge and the flavor was strong but not overpowering or heavy, which made for a really nice appetizer! It came with a mayo like sauce and was on a bed of corn for some flavor variety, but really enjoyed the crab cake. It also came out PIPING hot and was very enjoyable. The shrimp and grits came with a Smokey almost gumbo like sauce, kind of like a Cajun take on shrimp and grits. It was filled with shrimp that was very bouncy (not overcooked!), smoked ham/sausage, and was very generous on the sauce and grits. Was very enjoyable. Will definitely come back for the exceptional service and good food!

    On a beautiful early summer day with warm sunshine and gentle breezes, it was a pleasure to sit at…read moreone of the outside patio tables, overlooking the colorful flower garden and the lazy river -with food and service that lived up to this restaurant's positive reputation and its 5 star reviews. Food: 5/5 We decided to try a leisurely lunch. The menu is not large, but it has enough variety to be interesting. Everything we tried was delicious. The smoked salmon appetizer portion was large, but the best part was the great flavor. I can see why this choice has been on the menu for years. The Vidalia onion soup will be a surprise for the non-Georgians who expect it to be similar to a savory beef broth like French onion soup. Georgia's onions from the Vidalia area are sweet and tasty enough to carry the soup without the help of a meat broth and the green pesto sauce offers a nice additional touch. The salmon on fresh salad was done perfectly. The panka-crusted cod with mashed potatoes and spinach was outstanding. Both were seasoned so lightly that the true flavors shone through. The portions were generous enough that dessert at the time would have been too much, but others can do as we did and take home one of the dessert choices. Next time we plan to try their sandwiches which looked yummy at other tables. Service : 5/5 Service was excellent from the pleasant greeting, through the entire meal. Our server, Clayton, couldn't have been more helpful with the menu, as well as being very efficient and amiable. He made sure our food was served promptly and our beverages glasses were full, and our requests were met quickly. Facility: The facility lends itself to the riverside experience from the canoe in the entryway ceiling to the flowers and bird feeders just beyond the patio tables. The white tablecloth ambiance informs you that this isn't a fast-food experience. There are tents set aside in a more private are of the garden as a lovely venue for special events Location : This isn't a quick roadside stop next to a 6-lane highway. Even though the restaurant is convenient to dine in an Atlanta suburb, the roads to the restaurant wind and meander for a short distance through one of the prettiest neighborhoods, with a canopy of large old trees, with lovely fences, hedges, and gates lining the road. There is courteous valet parking at the front door. The restaurant is not inexpensive but it is well worth the prices paid, in our opinion.

    After trying twice to order takeout I have been unsuccessful. Depending on the night they…read morearbitrarily decide whether they will take takeout orders. I'd understand if they stated it online or somewhere but they decide each evening whether or not they will take any takeout orders and then only way to find out is by calling. This is incredibly frustrating because you can't plan or count on being able to get food from there and with a menu as expensive as theirs that's just unacceptable, in my opinion. My impression is that they are stuck in the 1980s around when they opened and don't want to update the experience. Hence their post strict dress code and arbitrary takeout policy.
