    Absolute Perfection! A True Gem From the moment you walk…read moreinto Cozy Coop, you are treated like family. It is rare to find a place that excels equally in food quality, service, and pure hospitality, but this place hits a home run on all fronts. The food is absolutely delish and cooked to absolute perfection, packed with flavor, and served piping hot. Best chicken in Georgia if you ask me. You can taste the quality and its seasoned to perfection. The staff matches this excellence with their service; they are incredibly attentive, warm, and fast, making sure your dining experience is flawless from start to finish. What truly elevates Cozy Coop into a league of its own is the owners. They are exceptionally generous and possesses a rare, empathetic, and genuine kindness that sets the tone for this family-owned restaurant. If you haven't been to Cozy Coop yet, do yourself a favor and go. Exceptional food, stellar service, and a heart of gold behind the counter. My family and I will be customers for life! Lakesha

From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were warmly greeted by Diano and she very graciously, explained the menu to us. I ordered the two-piece white meat chicken plate with coleslaw, macaroni and cheese and red beans and rice along with a piece of cornbread. My wife ordered a veggie plate with collard greens, candied yams, and fried okra along with a piece of cornbread. Everything was absolutely delicious and we enjoyed our meals greatly!

RC had approached her with a flier at a gas station, informing her that his restaurant had just opened up. Anyway, I'm ordering my meal, the same meal I always get each time I go. Fried fish (whiting), collards and the baked beans (unmatched). And he goes, "What would you like to drink?".... I'm like, "What do you have?" (Assuming the usual. Sweet tea. Lemonade... I was probably gonna go with sweet tea. ) He lists sweet tea of course, and then hes like, "Kool-Aid, coke, sprite" - IM LIKE WAIT. DID YOU SAID KOOL-AID?......... He's like, "Yeah??..." Im like, "what flavor???.... "Purple?...." I had never heard of that at a restaurant, and quiet frankly, that's all I needed to know. At this point, I literally go nowhere else for soul food. Also, RC is amazing. Really good guy, and his team offer the best service as well. A job well done, always.

    I go to the JohnBoy's on Canton Road. There are always healthy choices, great salad options, and…read morethe sweet tea is amazing! (I always get half sweet/half unsweet; just ask for "half-n-half" if you're cutting back sugar.) The wait staff treat everyone like regulars, and the kitchen staff keep the buffet full of delicious choices. The menu changes daily, so check the website if you're picky. I heard there's another JohnBoy's in Cartersville, I've never been there, but it's probably the same.

    Not fresh at first, but decent if you push for it…read more I was pretty disappointed with how long the chicken and chicken livers had clearly been sitting out. When I arrived, I grabbed a piece of chicken and it was already cold, so I decided to wait for them to bring out a fresh batch. Same thing with the chicken livers: cold and not refreshed the entire time we were eating. Near the end of the meal, I finally asked if they were planning to put out fresh chicken. I explained that I tried it when I got there (about 30 minutes earlier) and it was cold, and nothing had been replaced. The staff member said she could start working on some, so I waited. About 12 to 15 minutes later, they did bring out fresh chicken and fresh chicken livers, and honestly, when it's fresh it's actually pretty good. The mashed potatoes were another issue. They had a thick, crusty layer on top, and it looked like they dumped the old, dried-out potatoes from the previous pan over the fresh batch. I had to scrape off the crusty topping just to get to the fresh potatoes underneath. Overall, the food itself isn't terrible. The bigger problem is the way it's being handled. It felt like they were more focused on cutting costs and stretching old food than keeping the buffet fresh and consistent. My advice: if something you want looks like it's been sitting out too long, say something early before you sit down. If you wait, you may never see fresh food brought out.

However, keep in mind that some items may not be available (depending on vendor availability due to tariffs). Outside of that, the food was definitely made with love. We were able to meet the owner who was very personable and love meeting his customers. The inside is very open and spacious. Plenty of TVs around the restaurant to keep you entertained. My food pic is from my to-go order that was placed (hush puppies did not come with the plate, they were ordered as a side item). The food is seasoned very well and will have you curling on the couch for an afternoon nap. Stop second guessing and head on over to Sweeties Crab Shack. Get some of this good food and keep supporting this small business.

Can wait to return to try the whole catfish. Don't get it twisted if you don't like catfish...NO PROBLEM!! They have a variety types of fish. There is plenty other seafood items. The collard greens was fresh(not canned) and seasoned like our grandmother would cook them. I'm not a Mac-n-cheese fan but I enjoyed it here at Sweetie's. Ambiance was very warm and welcoming. Enjoyed old school music I hadn't heard in a while. It would be very disrespectful not to mention the very handsome and well respectful young man that provided service. He was very customer oriented, warm and welcoming. Always greeting with a smile when returning to check on me. I give this establishment a 5 star epic rating. Will revist again very very soon. Ps: Don't forget the desserts. I had the Strawberry Crunch...DELICIOUSLY and very moist!!! Sorry I forgot to snap photo before I ate it

The chicken sausage was pretty good as well. The Lows: I ordered on their website at 11:25 and requested the order for 12 pm. It wasn't ready until about 12:15. The Mac and Cheese wasn't very good. I expected more from a place that is supposed to have that southern comfort food vibe. If you like creamy Mac and cheese with the cheese pull... This ain't it. The In-between: we ordered food to go. The place is located in a shopping center next to the tropical smoothie place. Parking wasn't hard at all. It wasn't that busy when we went on Sunday morning. As noted, I had to wait about 15 minutes passed the original pick up time. They invited me to sit at the bar but no one offered me a water or anything while I waited. When I did finally receive the food, there was no apology for the delay either. Little service recovery attempts like that can go a long way.
