    Mild 3 piece tender plate with fries and Mac and cheese
    Ally Y.

    Food is always great! Out of the two Atlanta locations this is definitely our favorite! Service was excellent, space was clean and everything was great! We will always stop at Hattie bs each time we are in Atlanta!

    Chicken wings, and fries

    It's a small place.. lots of people ... the service was fast and I love the fact that I ordered chicken wings and I got whole chicken wings not half chicken wings

    Hattie B's Hot Chicken is a solid spot for fried chicken sandwiches. The chicken was juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The portion sizes were good for the price, and it was nice having a variety of sauces to choose from. Although the restaurant is busy and often has a line, we found parking easily since they have small lots in both the front and back. Indoor and outdoor seating are available.

    Food There was a small wait for the food but it came out hot and smelled great. I had the half bird in damn hot. The heat was a perfect level of spice where it had some heat but not over the top while also being flavorful. Crinkle cut fries were nice and crispy and the pimento Mac and cheese was fine. Service It was great. I walked in and no one was at the counter but in mere seconds someone came and greeted us and ready to take our order. I needed a minute and more people came in. A second cashier came up and ready as well. Wow! Prompt and aware. Ambiance Casual spot with indoor and outdoor seating (some heating lamps too). Parking lot is hectic and can get full.

    Fried Southern Salad

    Tried for the first time and it was an average experience. Service was ok. Food was ok. Unfortunately, the salad seemed old and wasn't very fresh. If I visit again, I'll stick to what they're known for. Overall 3/5.

    --Location/Parking-- Located in east Atlanta, there is parking on the side and the back. If you are coming south on the road, it can be difficult to make a left turn into the parking lot. First timer mistake is to park in the neighboring next door lot which charges for parking. There is available parking to the front and right side of the building. I think you can park in the back, but I am unsure of how to get to it. --Ambience-- Very southern, there are outdoor and indoor seating. Wood indoor floors and and on the furniture. I believe it was a gas station converted into a restaurant. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Outside seating gives a vibe of a hangout with its wide family style benches and cornhole set up. This gives a great sit down hang out type of vibe. --Service/Staff-- Shoutout to Melo the cashier for helping me out since this was my first time ordering at Hattie B. A special shout out to Allen for taking care of the guest and looking out for the customers. I was so busy taking pictures and admiring the décor and the wait staff had to hunt me down to give me my food. Great top-notch service. --Products-- My ordered the jumbo chicken wings at medium spice level. The skin was crispy and delicious and was the best parts and there were huge chunks of chicken meat dripping off the wings. Highly recommend. I will try out the different heat levels on my next visit. --Capacity-- Indoors can hold 30 plus people inside with various table size. Outdoors there were under the canopy plenty of seating to hold maybe 60 plus additional people. The bench seating could hold a party of 10 people, but I know people love to space out so I am being conservative with the numbers. --Overall-- Great hot chicken in the Atlanta area. I heard of Nashville hot chicken but did not expect the level of deliciousness in chicken. I will be back in trying out the different heat levels to find the one that matches my taste.

    Medium and mild chicken strips and (2) piece (thigh/leg). Sides are : potato salad, Mac and cheese, baked beans, and greens.

    Justin was our server and helped us order. Very hospitable and helpful. Atmosphere was calm with plenty of space to sit. The food is 10/10!

    Apparently the secret is out and everyone is coming here on Sunday evenings for the best hot chicken in the city! My son ordered the medium grilled chicken with collard greens, daughter ordered the hot quarter bird with waffles as her side, and I chose the hot quarter bird with grits. My grits were so coveted by the family, I did not get a bite. The waffles were late in coming and the staff offered me a free dessert so I said banana pudding which is my favorite!!!! One was out the door when we left at 6:10 pm! Come here for Great food and fantastic customer service. If there is a problem, let them know, and they will fix it!

    The family ordered in from Hattie B's - Atlanta East location through DoorDash. I can't speak on the service or atmosphere, since I've never seen or stepped foot in the establishment. I had the Quarter Dark with Southern flavor, one Wing with Mild flavor and Pimento Mac & Cheese. The chicken was pretty good. It wasn't dry and the skin had a nice crisp. The Mac & Cheese was good, but I was expecting more umph to the cheese flavor (since I love pimento cheese). I also ordered the Peach Cobbler for dessert. I actually did not care for it. My serving lacked crust. The flavor of the peaches was a bit off putting. Being that I'm visiting the South, I desired the true southern taste of peach cobbler (minus the excessive use of sugar). I like peach cobbler that has a good balance of peaches and crust. I also like to have the savory flavor of nutmeg. Unfortunately, my serving did not have either.

    Robyn N.

    Service was great! She had really good recommendations for a newbie. Fried pickles had a great crispy coating, unfortunately, the pickles were bland and soft. My chicken wings were dry rubbed. Nice and crispy coating, juicy chicken wings. The sweet n smoky was a little too sweet with no hint of smoky and for me a bit salty. My hubby had the Damn hot, he didn't think it was very hot &did not like the texture of flavored coating. We both really liked the greens and the pimento Mac!!

    Vanilla Ice Cream
    Rebecca H.

    Finally got to try this place after hearing about the long lines and hype of Hattie B's! Lines weren't as bad as when they first opened. The patio was nice and I appreciated the heaters. They really know how to make a good chicken sandwich with lots of chicken breast meat. Coleslaw was ok- really mayonnaise-y, which works well on the sandwich. Next time I'll stick with french fries as a side since the coleslaw is already on the sandwich. A couple of minutes after we got our sandwiches, they handed us our ice cream that we ordered. I thought that was perfect so we wouldn't have to stare at our ice cream melting while we're eating the main entree. The vanilla ice cream was a perfect dessert at the end of the meal!

    Fried 3 Tenders Plate
    Ayesha L.

    Came here with my son on a Friday night grabbed the last parking spot in front. Grace was excellent cashier and gave us recommendations on spice levels. We both got mild. Casual atmosphere and food came out super quick. My son rated it 10/10. We will def be back.

    3 Fried Jumbo Tenders Plate
    Kai D.

    When I'm in the area, especially when I'm hungry, I always get Hattie B's! I love the 3 piece tender plate. My spice level is, "Damn Hot!" I love that they use habanero peppers for this spice level. For sides, I did try the Mac & cheese & greens. They were ok. But I always get the crinkle fries! Also I love the pickles that come with it. For sauces, I get Blue Cheese & Nashville Comeback Sauce! The Honey Mustard dipping sauce is good as well. If you want a drink, you have to purchase one. They do not come with the meals. I use the Hattie B's app to place my pick up orders. When you download the app., 1st time users get a free desert! Also you can collect points and use at a later date. The service is always friendly and fast. You can eat outside or inside. It's enough space but it does it get busy at times.

We had hot and lemon pepper, both were great and up to standard. Wings pro tip, order them extra crispy. We also had the cheese curds and mojos fries, everything was unhealthy and delicious.

    We visited Sweet Auburn on a Sunday afternoon with a group of 10. Parking was a little confusing…read moresince it's in a parking deck shared with an apartment building, but the restaurant will validate parking for up to two hours, which was a nice perk. A few of us shared the BBQ Omakase, and I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality and the amount of food. The appetizers were a great start, the brisket egg rolls were crispy, packed with meat, and easily an 8.5/10. I also really enjoyed the pimento wontons. The standouts for me were the mac and cheese, baby back ribs, and brisket. I also ordered the fried rice, and it honestly tasted just like hibachi-style fried rice, so good! The only item that fell a little flat for me was the wings. That said, both my sister and my spouse really enjoyed them, so it may have just come down to personal preference. The service was a little slow, and it took a while before we were able to place our orders, but our server was pleasant and friendly throughout the meal. Overall, I was very impressed. The food was flavorful, the portions were generous, and everyone in our group left full with enough leftovers for the next day. I'd definitely come back!

    We came here on a weekday evening after hearing a lot of hype and strong recommendations, so…read moreexpectations were already pretty high. AMBIANCE The experience got off to a rough start with parking.They validate parking at a local parking structure or garage but the directions on the placard outside the establishment were unclear.... with an arrow to the back. The back of what? As newcomers to the restaurant and the area, the parking structure and restaurant that was point of refernece was not helpful. There wasn't even an address or street name to go by. We ended up circling behind nearby buildings and down another street before finally finding the parking structure. It felt unnecessarily confusing and set a slightly frustrating tone before we even walked in. Once inside, things improved. We were seated right away in a booth on the right side of the dining room. The space had a stylish, eclectic feel....interesting decor with a lively, buzzy energy. Not overly loud, but definitely active for a weekday night. SERVICE Service was efficient and welcoming through though. Our waitress quickly brought water and drinks and gave us time to look over the menu. The concept of Asian fusion twist meets Southern BBQ is intriguing, but as first-timers, it took some effort to picture how the flavors would come together. We found ourselves cross-referencing Yelp photos for awhile just to get a better sense of what to expect. FOOD We decided to get started with the brisket egg rolls, one of their most popular items. They arrived in about 10-15 minutes and were a solid opener...found them crispy, flavorful, and a creative twist on the usual pork ones. For mains, we ordered the BBQ plate with fries and collards, along with the smoked chicken curry. The BBQ plate was fine...nothing really amazing and pretty tiny portions for what you're paying for. The flavors were good, but not justified for the premium. The chicken curry was fine. For $17.50, I definitely expected more pulled pork that people were raving about....the dish was more than 1/2 rice and potatoes. The standout, by far, was the brisket egg roll...easily the highlight of the meal and better than we anticipated given the fusion concept. Overall, it felt like you're paying a bit more for the concept and presentation than the actual quantity. Wouldn't come back again.

It wasn't busy at all on a Wednesday night. Signs indicate that you should seat yourself wherever available and to head to the counter to make your order. I ordered takeout, so I can't speak about the dine-in experience here. FOOD: We ordered a double order of the wings and asked for their two most popular flavors, which were the lemony pepper wet wings and some other flavor (couldn't hear the worker clearly, but just went with it). The order came with fries and a choice between ranch or blue cheese dipping sauce. Maybe I am not used to the flavor profile here, but I found the wings to be excessively salty (and I have a preference for salty food). My tongue is still tingling as I write this review. Also, the lemony pepper wings tasted like they were coated in pure citric acid. The other flavor was drowning in sauce. The wings themselves were so dry that it felt like I was eating chicken jerky. SERVICE: Food came out within ten minutes of us ordering. No frills place, so expect no frills service. No complaints. They have a bag-it-yourself policy. TLDR// This might be the first place to actually convince me that overseasoning is actually a thing. Excessively salty, dry chicken wings that my tongue is still paying the price for. Would not come back, and I would try a different spot for lemony pepper wet wings.

    Horrible Service!!!…read more I had one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever experienced at Wingstop. The employee, Michael, was extremely disrespectful and unprofessional from the moment I interacted with him. I was owed $4 in change from my order. My food was placed on the counter without my name being called, and I sat there waiting for several minutes. Eventually, Michael stood directly in front of me and yelled, "Britt," in a very rude and aggressive tone. When I acknowledged him, he told me that my food had been sitting there in a nasty manner. I asked where my change was, along with a cup since I had ordered a combo and had not received one. His response was extremely disrespectful, saying things along the lines of, "I'll get your change. You don't have to worry about that since you're pressed about some money." I could then hear him in the back making comments about me wanting "my little money," as if I was wrong for asking for the money I was owed. Another employee eventually placed my change on the counter for me to pick up instead of handing it to me. Even after that, Michael continued arguing with me as I was leaving. The interaction escalated to him calling me out of my name and using profanity toward me. He even brought my mother into the argument, which was completely unnecessary and unacceptable. What made the situation even more disturbing was that Michael stated that he had spit in my food. Whether he actually did it or not, an employee should never make a statement like that to a customer.That alone is completely unacceptable and makes me question the safety and cleanliness of the food being served. There were other customers in the restaurant who witnessed what happened and even encouraged me to stand up for myself because of how I was being treated. I was initially going to let this experience go, but I don't believe customers should have to tolerate this type of behavior after spending their hard-earned money at a business. No customer should be yelled at, insulted, cursed at, or made to feel uncomfortable simply for asking for the correct change and items they paid for. I will never patronize this location again. Management needs to seriously address Michael's behavior and the way customers are being treated. This was completely unacceptable and one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had.

    Manuel's Tavern has been around since the 1950s and still holds strong as a staple Atlanta pub…read more They have lots of beer on draft, typical bar food, and a rustic environment. The place is large with lots of seating and some games to play as well (quarter operated). They have a giant parking lot across the street too. The food was good and very reasonably priced. The chicken fingers were crispy and tasty, and the horseradish sauce it came with was out of this world. They have a bunch of TVs over the bar and were playing the Braves game so it's a nice spot to grab some food and a drink and watch sports!

    This was my second visit to this iconic place, but the first time I was there for an event and,…read morealthough I ordered food, I wasn't really paying attention. Today I went for lunch. I had the pulled pork sandwich with potato salad and the vegetable of the day (steamed broccoli). My companions had a quesadilla and the chicken fried steak, which were also great. We drank iced tea (served in enormous cups) but there is a full bar available. The place is unassuming from the outside. Don't miss the overflow parking across the street when the small lot behind the restaurant is full. Inside is dark wood floors and furniture, the walls are covered with old photos ands m, and memorabilia. There are a handful of pinball machines in an alcove by the door and TVs hung on some walls for entertainment too. I'm glad I was able to enjoy a m al here. The food was good, service was good, and I felt like a local.

    Overpriced disappointing food!…read more This was the second time I got food from here. I tried to give Pielands a second chance after being disappointed the first time but it got even worse. I ordered food for delivery and it came 30 minutes late. It seems like my food wasn't made until the driver arrived to the restaurant. I got the limited time chicken, bacon, ranch pizza. It barely had any cheese or chicken on it. I didn't taste or see any ranch on it. The buffalo wings were soggy by the time I got them. Won't be coming back here. I paid $45 for bad food. I could've paid less than $20 for dominoes which would've tasted better.

    The place was pretty busy as it was a Friday evening. Most people were ordering to go as it has a…read morevery small dining area and it's pretty much set up for takeout. I ordered the farmers market pizza to go. I called them to ask if it was possible to add garlic because on the website it says "No additional toppings". They checked and decided that request was an ok. I was disappointed that it was an additional $3.99 for fresh garlic yet I honestly couldn't find nor taste the garlic that much after biting into it, but such as it is. The pizza tasted very fresh with all of the veggies and there was a sweetness about it that complemented it very well. I'm not sure if it was the tomatoes that were sweet, but I did like the flavor. Unfortunately, the crust was a little overdone for my liking. I think this was just the luck of the draw. I'll try again next time and I'm not adding the charge of the sprinkles of garlic. I'll just put it on myself when I get home. Lol
