    Great place to stop in the terminal for some lunch/dinner. The staff was very attentive and checked on me multiple times throughout my lunch. The food was actually really good for being airport food! I wanted something healthy so I got a roasted beet salad and some lamb meatballs. They were both delicious and hit the spot. My prickly pear paloma was great! My cucumber martini was also yummy, but I asked to sub the gin with their cheapest vodka and it was a +$4 upcharge?! If I was told that was going to be the case, I would not have changed it to vodka. But everything else about this place was really good.

    Shrimp and Grits
    Nancy C.

    The food was so delicious it was hard for me to believe I was in an airport eating lunch! It was a splurge but I was by myself with 3 hours to kill- some of THE best Shrimp and Grits I've ever eaten, enjoyed the fresh baked chocolate cake too!!! I highly recommend you try this place out! Kristian was my server- great service too!!

    Greek yogurt and mimosa

    Their breakfast Greek yogurt with fruits and granola is the best thing I ever ate. It's so delicious and they make their mimosa good!

    Grilled avocado Cobb Salad with chicken and sweet potato fries
    Kennan K.

    Solid avocado Cobb salad with chicken. The sweet potato fry's were almost hitting. They need a slightly thicker batter. Sweet potato fries turn to mush and need that crusty coating to have a crisp texture or mouth feel. Staff was friendly. Except for one of the male staff members who yells across the room and other staff. Tone that down.

    I had a two hour layover and needed a place to sit down and eat with family. There were plenty of seating. Our server was very kind and readily available. The food was delicious but in my opinion, the add-ons were a bit overpriced. Otherwise, it's a great place to sit down, relax, and eat.

    Well Cat Cora's name recognition worked but this place falls short. Pros: the shrimp and grits were really great. Shrimp was cooked perfectly, they were a nice size, grits were creamy. Wait staff is very nice and friendly and attentive. Cocktail was refreshing and chilled nicely. Tabletops were clean. Cons: dirty walls and floor, side salad (which was $7.00) had old lettuce, very loud, dirty wait staff station. There are many food offerings here at the ATL airport and I would not come back

    I arrived for my flight only to discover the flight was delayed! I was already planning to walk around and get my steps in, but now that I had additional time I opted to sit down and enjoy a bite to eat. After a quick google search of the best breakfast at the Atlanta Airport, I opted to check out this spot! Cat Cora s kitchen is on Concourse A. The sign is bright yellow so it's easy to locate . If you are coming from the food court area make a left and the restaurant is located on the right hand side. I sat at the bar. There were several people dining in as well as dinning at the bar area. You can also dine directly in front of the open kitchen. I appreciate this, particularly for an airport restaurant. There was only one bartender. She was ok. I would not brag about the service provided, however, I also don't have any complaint's. I opted for the egg white scramble meal. I needed some fiber , and it included a few veggies. You also get a choice of meat, and white or wheat bread. The food came out quickly. The eggs appear to be made to order. I really enjoyed the chicken sausage and felt as though the entire meal was a solid option. It cost about $15 after taxes. I honestly feel like it's a decent value ! I will be back! I look forward to trying their lunch/ diner options!

    I got to ATL airport much earlier than expected, so I decided to spend my downtime by treating myself out to a nicer, sit-down meal. I came across Cat Cora's through Yelp, and I was intrigued by their menu. I was seated immediately, and I got my order taken soon after. I didn't expect myself to wait an entire hour for the food, but upon arrival of the chicken dish I ordered, I could see why I had waited so long. The chicken was cooked perfectly. Juicy and not too dry. I also loved the potatoes and arugula that came with this dish. It was a hearty meal that kept me satisfied for the rest of the day. I would happily come back to Cat Cora's again, though I wish they had faster service. I felt bad having to flag down waitresses to fill up water and bring me my check.

    I walked in hungry and left feeling like time itself had slowed to a crawl. There were 16 tables in the room. Six sat empty. Most of the rest were occupied by people waiting. Waiting for menus, for drinks, for food, for someone to acknowledge they existed. Meanwhile several employees gathered around the grill carrying on long conversations as if service were a background activity instead of the job. One moment summed it up. A gentleman finished his meal and then had to stand up and track someone down just to pay his bill. No one noticed. No one seemed concerned. It felt less like a rush and more like a culture where urgency simply doesn't exist. If you're in a hurry, don't come here. If you're hungry, think twice. Orders take a long time to be taken, drinks arrive slowly if they arrive at all, and food comes out on its own mysterious timeline. The room was only half full, yet the experience felt like a restaurant overwhelmed by a packed house. This isn't about one bad server. It felt systemic. Slow, untrained service and a general sense that the staff had nowhere else to be and no reason to move with purpose. Customers shouldn't have to compete with staff conversations for attention. I really wanted to like this place. But good intentions don't fill an empty glass or speed up a meal that never seems to arrive. Whoever manages this place needs a better manager themselves. An airport is a busy place with many busy travelers, many of whom are going to be running for flights. It's simply unacceptable to have any business here that doesn't understand the need for urgency.

    Fig and ricotta toast
    Miracle R.

    Sat at bar, Shay tended to me. Friendly, efficient & good feedback/food suggestions. Sweet potato fries- good, not fried hard enough- were super soft. But the flavor was delicious including the garlic aioli. Fig & ricotta toast- good flavor balance. I wish the bread was toasted more. Was very soft, I would have appreciated a little char and crunch to offset the soft ingredients. Wine- pinot noir, I dont remember which one but it was good! Overall, I would stop in again. Space feels tight compared to some other bars and restaurants in the airport but they have good service and solid food.

    If in the Atlanta airport and there for a layover or a delayed flight, stop in. The service and staff were full of joy. It was pretty crowded but the servers did the best they could. There are some tables that offer outlets to charge others do not. Food was okay. Salt help most things. But I was hungry, therefore, it was good. lol! All tables were set with holiday decor and people were generally friendly.

    Usually when you think of airport food you think simple and fast with a hint of grease. Cat Cora's is not that. Everything I ordered tasted incredibly fresh and had tremendous amounts of flavor. Like all airport restaurants, the space wasn't too big but it didn't feel cramped and the servers were incredibly friendly. Now, the food. I had the lamb meatballs and crab Mac and cheese. I didn't expect to find such elevated dishes at an airport but I'm glad I did. The lamb was incredible and cooked perfectly. The Mac and cheese was full of crab and so cheesy. I can't remember the name of my dessert but it was incredible. Like a chocolate soufflé topped with cream and some berries.

    Shrimp and grits! Amazing flavors, spice and the service was fantastic!  Thank you and keep up the great

    The shrimp & Grits was delicious on top of great service and ambience! Keep up the great work! God Bless Ron

    I haven't felt the need to do a review in a long time but I feel like I must let everyone know…read moreabout this hidden gem! To start, my sister and I had the hella good and social cocktails and both were perfectly balanced. We had the mussels which were fantastic and the crabcake was phenomenal! It was seriously the best crab cake I've had in years - and we're from Maryland. The lamb was seasoned well and cooked to a perfect medium rare and the grits were to die for. The lobster fried rice was also super yummy! We also tried the espresso martini and the strawberry pearltini and those were both on point! Honestly, this was the first new restaurant I've tried in awhile where I was impressed by every dish and drink. Bonus is the prices were very reasonable for the quality! We will be back

    This is a Small seafood spot that has apparently been known to have food food. I went and I only…read moredrank so I can't speak on that. So let's cover the ambience and service. Again,it's small venue: you really shouldn't come here with a slew of people if you can help it. They have some outdoor seating as well, but not a lot, so you don't want to count on that, but it's kind of intimate. The bar fits maybe six to eight seats at most, and the general seating probably no more than 20 people. It's in a shopping center area, so it's free parking when you go, and there's a number of other things there. You could easily start with this spot and then go to a show and then end up in a cigar lounge, so at least that's a little bit of flexibility. I had the House malbac which was pretty good. I'm looking around, though, and I noticed that the food looks amazing. It made me feel bad for not eating, LOL. Everybody says that it is good, but I just can't speak on it. It looks amazing, so I wanted to make sure I say that. I sat at the bar, and the bartenders kind of were in and out. There were maybe four people at the bar aside from myself. The bartenders kept disappearing, so I wasn't sure about the whole service component with this place. Once you get their attention, you're good, but it just seemed like there were a lot of disappearing acts. I gotta give them grace because it looked like the bartender was dropping off food as well, so I can't wholly take off for that because it looks like they had him doing double duty. If you're into seafood and you want some crab cakes or some salmon, you should probably at least take a look at the menu. It's a good stop-off point, so I would definitely suggest giving it a shot if you're in the area.

Service: Our waitress was Armani and she was amazing!!! From the time she came to our table to introduce herself until we paid our bills, she was energetic, continously checked on us, and immediately fixed any issues from the kitchen. If you go, ask to sit in Armani's section. Food: Our table of 5 had mixed reviews on the food. Some thought the wings were good while others thought they were unseasoned other than the sauce on top. We generally enjoyed the Jamaican patties despite the confusion on our "patty flight." We were initially given 2 curry patties and later told it was because they didn't have anymore jerk patties. However, we were later sent a jerk patty, so that was confusing. Entertainment: This is where they lacked and why I wouldn't come back. We arrived at 7:30pm. During the time we were there, there was a boring old school play list and the songs people chose for karaoke. We came for karaoke because we'd been told by the bartender that night gets packed. That's not true, at any given time there weren't anymore than 10 tables with guests. Additionally, management was very strict about what songs could be performed for karaoke and told paying customers we couldn't curse. When I asked about this policy, the manger told me it was the traditional global way to be family friendly. If that's your thing, this would be the place for you but it didn't fit our needs for a girl's night and the women in our group were 35-55. Lastly, the two managers appeared to micromanage every move the servers and bartenders made, it just felt weird.
