    My fiancée was treating me to a post-birthday dinner, and I specifically wanted City Barbeque because I had it a couple of months ago and was absolutely floored by how good it was. Unfortunately, this visit was a major letdown. We chose this location over the Blackmon Dr. one solely based on the health score -- this location was showing a 100 while the other had an 86. In hindsight, I wish we had gone back to the original spot. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt off. Every employee we encountered looked at us with visible disinterest, almost like our presence was an inconvenience -- and this was well before closing. We stood at the counter for about five minutes before anyone acknowledged us. The employee who eventually took our order was patient while we decided, but she spoke so quietly that it was hard to hear her. The biggest disappointment, though, was the food. It came out cold, which was surprising and frustrating. I know and love BBQ, and temperature plays a huge role in flavor. Even assuming all locations receive food from the same distributor, this meal tasted noticeably different -- and not in a good way. The cold temperature absolutely impacted the experience. To make matters worse, the condiment station was messy and unclean. When I picked up our food, I thanked the employee and wished him a good day, only to be completely ignored. That small interaction really summed up the overall lack of hospitality. We walked away extremely disappointed, especially given that this was meant to be a celebratory post-birthday meal. I will absolutely have City Barbeque again -- just not at this location.

    Crispy Baked Potato, Leg + Thigh, Smoked Turkey, Beef Brisket

    I'm typically weary of chain barbecue restaurants and now confirmed for good reason. Barbecue is a cooking technique and cuisine that requires attention and dare I say, "love". I didn't get any of that in the three meat combo that I ordered. The brisket and chicken really weren't notable at all and lacked memorable flavor. The turkey was perfectly and stood out between the three meats. I'll admit, the crispy baked potato was one of the best I've ever had.

    Okay-bbq. My husband was craving bbq and wanted to try this place out. We ordered pulled pork, pulled chicken, and chicken thigh with leg. For our sides, we tried the mac &cheese and corn pudding. We've definitely have had better bbq. The flavors were not there. The buttered toast was really good though. Probably what was most disappointing to me was the banana pudding and chocolate cake. Usually, chocolate cake recipes call for a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors of all the other ingredients. This chocolate cake tastes like it contained a cup of salt. All I could taste was the salt. I think my friends would be shocked to hear that I threw away my favorite dessert.

    Mac n cheese, fries, brisket, turkey, and Texas toast!

    Walked in at prime time on a weeknight, and there were a few customers dinning in but a whole lot of to go orders. The inside has plenty of seating, there's also a large patio, and it has the overall look and feel of a chain bbq place. Took a while to order at the counter, as the person ahead of us had a lot questions. Would have been nice if they'd added a cashier to speed us along, but once we ordered the food came quickly. The fries were cold but were quickly exchanged with an apology with some fresh ones. The brisket was ok, chicken good, and the turkey surprisingly my favorite. Mac and cheese was also top notch, rich with a cheesy crust. Everything was a good sized portion too.

    The chicken is undercooked and rubbery with no spices added. Easily the best sweet tea I've ever had.

Red flags were screaming at this point! So we proceed to order lunch and she explains why we couldn't because lunch time was over. My wife and I explained that no we walked in well within the remaining minutes of lunch, and that there were a few lunch items only offered during lunchtime that we wanted to take advantage of. Remember, if she would've come to greet us right away instead of being on her phone there would not have been an issue. Plus there was literally no one seated outside except for us! No excuse for this type of service. Plus I'm shocked that management didn't accommodate a first timer to your establishment being it was the server's fault. Amazing how these kind of restaurants forget there are soooooo many great options in this city! No one is going to put up with this type of nonsense. Funny how they forget who's the paying customer, and get arrogant instead of being flexible within reason to a great customer experience. Wasn't asking for anything extra just to honor walking in during lunch time to order lunch! If that's too much to ask then hello and goodbye and that's why we got up and left! This place won't be around long! Ridiculous! Word of mouth is everything in the restaurant business Kid Cashew!

The place is a really nice…read moreplace if you wanna go ahead and meet some people at the bar or sit outside on a covered patio. It's free parking in Sandy Springs because it's in a shopping center so you don't have to worry about paying for parking. The menu itself is very small so you're not going to have a lot of things on there to choose from but what you do pick is probably gonna be really good though. The menu is usually only one page. Now if you flip it over the wine list is extensive or decently extensive considering the fact that it's not a winery but you have a massive amount of options . Last time I was there I sat at the bar and Rob was super cool and really gave great customer service. No complaints about that . Brooklyn favorite Reuben - the Reuben was a really good sandwich. It came hot with melted cheese on there and sauerkraut and it was a hit. It came with fries but you can actually get a different side if you want. The Reuben sandwich was very good and very filling. It wasn't overly stacked like I'm used to back where I'm from but at the same time they definitely put a nice amount of meat on there so you won't be hungry after you finish. Avocado egg rolls - I tried the avocado egg rolls and they were okay but it's not my cup of tea. Personally I don't actually like avocado and it was pretty much 90% avocado inside there. At the same time it wasn't bad. If you like avocados then this is really gonna be your bag. It comes with a really sweet, maybe a teriyaki kind of sauce, but it's actually good and it helped. I'm just not a fan of that so I can't take that away from them. Lobster bisque - the Lobster Bites were okay. It tasted just like it was supposed to. It was still very lobstery and creamy so I have to give them that. It was pretty good. I only had a little bit but at the same time I thought it was good for what it was. Overall I really really enjoyed this spot. The customer service was really good and the food was solid

    Absolutely outstanding experience at C&S Seafood in Sandy Springs!…read more My husband and I stopped in after a long day of shopping, and from the moment we arrived, Brandon made us feel genuinely welcomed and at home. His service wasn't just five stars--it was 12 stars. He was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. Brandon recommended the chargrilled oysters, and they were phenomenal. He also provided hot towel service, which was such a thoughtful touch and something you rarely experience these days. We ordered the surf and turf to share, and he took the liberty of having it split for us without us even asking. That level of attention to detail made the entire experience feel effortless. To top it off, Manager Darius stopped by to personally check on us and ensure everything was perfect. That kind of leadership and hospitality speaks volumes about the culture of this restaurant. I typically visit a different C&S location, but after this experience, I will absolutely be coming back to Sandy Springs. Brandon and Darius made our evening memorable. If you're anywhere in the Atlanta area, do yourself a favor and visit this location. It's small, quaint, intimate, and the service is truly top-tier. Highly recommended!
