Disappointing! This is the second time I have eaten here. The first time was several years ago, when I had breakfast, and had an abysmal bloody mary. It was disgustingly bad and not consumable. This time, I ordered the crab macaroni and cheese. It came with red pepper flakes in it, despite their being no mention of that in the menu description. It was so spicy, I couldn't eat it. It was remade for me, without the red pepper flakes, which are apparently pre-mixed into the breadcrumbs. When the second dish came, it was so incredibly salty, I could actually taste the salt. It was like Mornay sauce made with salt water. I was so hungry, I ate it, and needed several glasses of water afterward. Looking back, I should have told the bartender that it was inedible and sent it back. I am so salt-saturated right now, it's disgusting. I didn't want to be "that guy." I made a mistake. Cat Cora should be ashamed of her recipe, if it is actually being followed. If not, she needs to do a check-in with her kitchen staff. I may consider giving this place a third try, to see if it's the charm, or three strikes, and you're out. It will be a while, though. For now, run the other way. Go to P.F. Chang's. read more

Inside the Atlanta airport, near gate A25 is this gem of a restaurant. From the moment I approached the host stand I was greeted with a big smile by a friendly server who seated me on the spot. I ordered coffee, a fruit bowl and the egg white omelet and everything was extremely tasty. I especially loved that the fruit was fresh and delicious, which seems rare at most restaurants. My server Malcolm was so attentive which was impressive given the large number of tables he had. He was quick to refill my coffee which was greatly needed given my travel day began at 3:45 am. I will be back to Cat Cora's the next time I'm in the ATL airport. Thanks Malcolm for brightening my day, I appreciate you! read more

I was in the mood for something healthy during my layover so I decided to get a snack here. I'm very glad I did. Clean, contemporary dining area and friendly waitstaff. I got two vegan dishes and thoroughly enjoyed both of them. The garlic spinach was sautéed with a *lot* of garlic and just enough spice to make it interesting. I savored every bite and recommended it to the person next to me, who thanked me later. The edamame hummus was also savory. The pepperoncini, Kalamata olives and microgreens made sure the flavor had plenty of nuance and everything tasted amazing with the pita bread, which was nice even by itself. Pro tip: if you get the same things I did, eat the spinach first and then add the remaining garlic and oil to the hummus. You're welcome. I left very impressed. Everything was high quality and delicious. It's restaurants like this that make me wish I could walk into an airport terminal just to eat. Highly recommended. read more

Pleasantly surprised! The reviews were all over the place but since my colleagues and I were flying out of CONCOURSE A, we decided to try it for lunch. We thought it was beautiful looking food and tasted great except for the Quinoa had no flavor. Be prepared, it took a little while to get our food after we ordered and it's a little pricey for what we got, but of course it's in the airport so that's expected. Enjoyable atmosphere and the server was nice. read more

Service was excellent here, along with the food and drinks I had. Lamb meatballs were delicious and perfectly cooked, got a side salad along with it and it was the perfect light meal for my layover! The staff really stood out to me which is what prompted this review.. I don't normally have high (or any) expectations for airport restaurants as they're usually slow and food can be mediocre.. but they were really on it here. Kel was the bartender taking care of me and he was really kind personable, his partner in the bar (didn't get her name) was also attentive and had a pleasant personality. Manager was active in helping run food and checking on people and was cleaning, making sure her staff was good. Fun to watch everyone work so well together. Really appreciated everybody there, thank you! read more

I've seen this place before on prior trips connecting through the Atlanta airport. But today, two hour layover, time to give it a try. First, the people in Atlanta are genuinely very nice! The lady on the door and my server, very pleasant...and the airport is full of stressed out people, so congrats!! Service was very helpful and quick. I had the shrimp and grits. So much flavor, shrimp cooked perfectly, the right amount of heat. I enjoyed this very much!! If I ever get stuck in Atlanta, I will be back!! read more

We had a 2 hour layover at the Atlanta Airport. Came for a drink but ordered appetizers. The first bite of the Mac was soo good, I immediately tasted the crab, it tasted fresh and not imitation. Very cheesy. Our server Aisiah was super nice and attentive. The music playing was a great touch, I could tell it kept the servers motivated. They were singing and serving. Fun and upbeat. Give them a try if you're ever in concourse A read more

Located on Concourse A, Cat Cora's is a reliable sit-down breakfast spot. It is always busy and the wait staff are friendly and quick. We usually enjoy scrambled eggs, crispy regular bacon, fried potatoes, and toast. The ambiance is standard and is a smallish space. We have never had to wait. read more

Being located in the Airport, I didn't find this too terribly expensive. It certainly is a high volume restaurant and they manage very well! Sherica was very professional, timely, and welcoming. The ambiance is what can be expected at a busy airport without feeling crowded. I had the spicy tomato soup with a very delicious grilled cheese sandwich with caramelized onions and bacon. Perfect soup to sandwich size ratio. I will definitely be back! read more

You could do far worse than here for dining in the airport. It gets packed, but they turn tables frequently. The staff are also nice. I had the cobb salad. I loathe bleu cheese (I didn't notice it on the menu) so it wasn't my favorite, but it was a fresh well prepared salad. There were plenty of other appetizing looking dishes going out, as well. It was a tad pricey I guess, but not really considering that it's actual food that doesn't make you feel gross...in an airport. read more

I ordered the avocado Cobb salad with chicken. Which was amazing, the only draw backs in my opinion is the dressing. The turkey bacon is amazing. It's in house and the flavor doesn't pair well with the blue cheese and peppers. That Ambiance was nice even though it's an airport. The service was ok. The young lady that's was waiting on me was polite and timely. However when I asked the other 2 ladies a question they walked away no response or interaction. I think they thought I was going to complain. read more

Here today for lunch/dinner. Our party of four had crab Mac n cheese, cheeseburgers with sweet potato fries and penn pasta... Our server, Frey, (I thought it was Missa, but brother insisted it was Frey) was awesome. I had to ask to change my dish, the crab Mac n cheese for something else, because it was too salty for my taste. Frey, was so nice she did or hesitate to change my order... thank you. The hamburger was spot on! Everything else, was delicious. Thanks for the good eats... read more

Wanted a prickly pear Palome. William Cody said that they didn't have prickly pear. I said "ok then make it without it". Cocktail said $16. I was charged $20/cocktail which is a higher end drink Paloma's that I do not order. I had 2. $8 won't kill me but that's not an ok business practice. Additionally, I brought it to his attention and he dismissed me. Bad service. I am service industry read more

The friendliest staff and delicious food! I ordered the cobb salad and added shrimp - it was just the right amount of food and had very fresh ingredients (spring mix, cherry tomatoes, grilled avocado, blue cheese, small pieces of fresh bacon, sun dried tomatoes, boiled egg). The dressing, while light in appearance, was also the perfect amount and did not overwhelm the salad. And the staff was so nice! I wasn't paying attention and started following the hostess as she sat the guy in front of me in line and then SHE apologized for the confusion. She caused no confusion, I was just foggy after a day of travel. My waitress was also very delightful and attentive. If you're passing through this terminal in ATL, I highly recommend grabbing a bite here! read more

Flights were a bit delayed on my layover through Atlanta and my co-worker and I stumbled across Cat Cora's Kitchen. The restaurant was crowded, but we were able to find 2 bar chairs hidden around the corner. The bar was well lit with pendant lighting, and had plenty of gleaming surfaces. The bartender greeted us and told us she would be with us in just a few moments. After a bit, she was still pouring drinks and asked us to give her a few. As we had a slight delay, we weren't in much of a rush, so it wasn't a big problem. The great part was when she came over, she said, "Sorry about the delay but I want to make sure I have you my full and undivided attention." That was amazing, I wish I had got the young lady's name. Her entire demeanor showed she was completely focused on as at that moment and wanted to provide a high level of service. We each asked for drinks only and dadgum, did she make them good and strong. Of course, Delta chose that moment to decide they wanted to board our flight, so we had to chug and run, but this was an overall great experience. If I'm ever on a layover in ATL again, I'll make sure to come here. read more

I loved watching Cat Cora on Food Network so I was excited to try her restaurant in ATL. Very disappointed. Sorry. First, the food item I got was NOT as advertised. The menu called them "flank steak tacos," but I swear the meat was pot roast, which I loathe. Not even CLOSE to flank steak, which I LOVE. Hot sauce and a mound of slaw were the only things that kept them edible. Second, the prices. I know airports are high but $22 for three tacos and $14.50:for a glass of wine that retails at less than that PER BOTTLE was excessive. Third, the bartenders did little more than sling drinks. No conversation with the guests, though plenty among themselves. It's right on the concourse so it's hardly quiet, but that's to be expected. It could be that her other dishes.. and other servers... are fine, but it's really hard to get past a bad first experience. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed the spicy tomato soup with grilled cheese. The toast was crispy, the cheese was a blend of stretchy goodness. Would have loved to have more caramelized onions on the sandwich. Good choice if you're in a rush. The table spacing is pretty cramped for folks traveling with suitcases. Only thing concerning was I saw a few fruit flies. The staff was friendly. The manager took better care of me than the server...she even filled my water bottle. read more

Read reviews that suggested it was worth taking the tram to detour to Term A to eat here ... if you have ample time, definitely give it a shot! Bar service was friendly and on-point, and food was delicious (lamb meatballs & hummus plate). Downside? Food took far too long to arrive considering what I ordered and bar does get cramped with luggage/bags. Enjoy! read more

We had lunch while at Hartsfield Jackson Airport in Atlanta. Restaurant is in the A concourse near gate A 25. Food was excellent my wife had the Cobb Salad with Chicken and loved it. As expected more than enough to eat. My wife liked that the Chicken was freshly cooked and then added to the salad. I had the Cat Burger with freshly made Potato Chips, tomato and arugula. Burger was perfect fresh off the grill hot and very juicy. Best burger I have had in a while. Well worth the trip glad we stopped in will hold us over till we land and have dinner later tonight. Nice to eat in a restaurant that understands getting food to the table quickly and hot. Our waitress was, Mwelewa and she was so sweet and professional glad we sat in her section. Keep up the great work. read more

Cat Cora, come clean this one. Food sits way too long at the pass, fruit flies everywhere, and music at such a volume one can't think. Your bartender was wonderful. The manager and host were allergic to work. Love you and your food, but maybe you don't want this restaurant at the airport anymore? ATL airport is crazy, but this restaurant doesn't have to be. read more

Above and beyond service! I was cutting it close with my flight and had to run before the food came out. The waitress asked for my name and gate.

This is a great spot to have a nice sit down meal before your flight or on a layover while in the ATL airport. It is located across from gate A26. There are about 15 low-top tables to sit at and there is also a bar area to grab a drink at (or eat at the bar if you'd like). There are 8 or so TVs in the space, so Cat Cora's is also a great place to go if there's a game on. I got the Norwegian Salmon dish ($32) that comes on a hearty bed of quinoa and asparagus, then topped with a lemony-mustard vinaigrette. It had a nice presentation and came out hot. I almost forgot I was in an airport! The service was fast and friendly. The staff kept the areas clean and turned over tables in a timely manner. Your meal here may not be the cheapest in the airport, but if you want to enjoy a healthy option with comfortable seating in Terminal A, this is the place! read more

I actually enjoy this spot in the ATL airport. The food is better than most places and you can get decent wine here. Is it cheap, no, but is it better than most airport spots, yes. We had a five hour layover so we had dinner and drinks, walked around and came back for more drinks before the flight. We started with a few adult beverages. The hubby had a burger and fries which he thought was pretty good. I had the grilled cheese ( minus the onions) and the tomato soup which was awesome! I came back for a chocolate martini and a glass of wine before our flight. They have multiple TVs for game watching, a friendly staff and good food for an airport spot. read more

My server, Reese, was amazing! She was down to earth, kind, prompt and she gave a recommendation that was absolutely delicious! She recommended a few additional adds (egg & avacado) to the fig toast and it was seriously good! The chef did an amazing job at creating it with the right proportions and perfect flavor combo and the egg/avo that Reese said to add put it over the top! 10/10! The vibe was super chill in the resteraunt as well, every employee i came into contact with were super kind and helpful and omg the music was on point! I believe the manager even stopped to greet me! Everyone looked so happy to work there (meaning they have a great manager and team), the food was bomb, and ambiance was incredible! read more

The grilled cheese with spicy tomato soup was fab - good quality cheese, delish grilled onion and just the right amount of spice in the POPPIN' tomato soup. Homemade potato chips with bleu cheese dip were good; my batch of chips was maybe a tad over-fried. The garlicky spinach was outstanding, with plenty of garlic; the spinach was fresh and perfect cooked - major yum. I feel bad taking a star away from an Iron Chef but there needed to be at least one more vegetarian entrée. The fact that I made my meal from sides/apps says it all. But in total, the experience was positive, and as an extra bonus the tableware was much nicer than expected for an airport restaurant. read more

We had a 2 hour layover in ATL and we decided to give this place a try. Truthfully, we were looking for a spot to grab a quick drink and app, unfortunately, it was 10:15 am and only breakfast was being served. This restaurant is super small and compact. I ordered the egg white scramble which comes with potatoes, toast, and your choice of chicken or pork sausage. I wasn't interested in the potatoes or toast.
