    Th comfy biscuit! Just Damn
    Scott P.

    Wonderful local spot. Of course as mentioned by others, the comfy biscuit is a go to item. Large portion and I probably don't want to know the calorie, fat and carb count but it will make your eyes roll back in your head. Large cat head biscuit

    Comfy chicken and salmon cake
    Kevin W.

    This place is consistently a 4 star. I really like the vibe of this place. It is always a pleasure to eat at a venue where the people came for the food and no frills. I ordered the comfy chicken with a salmon patty and french toast. Weird combination but I wanted to try many items. The French toast was really good and simple. The salmon patty is good value but more breading than I expected. The comfy chicken seemed to be more breading than last time but the gravy had more sausage this time. No complaints.

    Basic breakfast
    Jennifer L.

    I heard great things about the place from the locals. Inside is very casual and feels like a local diner. There is so much artwork on the walls which I definitely appreciated. The service was great and the staff gave many recommendations. I had the Basic Breakfast so I could try a couple of different things (and I love a no fuss breakfast). I subbed the grits for home fries and added a chocolate chip pancake. The bacon is thick so not very crispy. The biscuit melts in your mouth. The pancake is HUGE and is so good. You don't have to add any syrup because it is already the perfect balance of sweetness.

    Wild Wild Wes Sandwich
    Nicole F.

    We came Sunday around 12pm for brunch, we were told the wait would be 30-45 minutes, you can wait outside, or what we did instead was visit the surrounding shops near by to kill time. About an hour into our wait, we decided to order take out. The food was ready within 15 minutes and we found a bench near by to eat. My mother got the Lynn's Salmon patty which was more so one salmon croquette, a fried tomato over satueed spinach. The portion size was on the smaller side but the food was very good, just a bit misleading when the menu advertises a salmon patty which it was not. I got the Wes Sandwich which is just a fancy BBQ chicken sandwich. The meat was tender and it was loaded with bacon and chicken, it was very good. If the wait is long you can order a coffee inside while you wait.

    Breakfast enchiladas

    When people talk about Atlanta staples, Homegrown absolutely belongs on the list. Amazing food with a down home diner feel and a thrift store in the back. Really how much better can it get? I stopped into this gem for a quick brunch and as always was never disappointed. Let's get into it! Location and Parking They are located on Memorial Drive, across from Madison Yards. They have a lot with free parking, but when it gets crowded (and trust it will) there's also street parking available. Venue and Atmosphere Homegrown is the perfect name because that's exactly what it feels like when you walk through the door. You feel at home. Whether it's the smiles you get from the hostess, the bar that reminds you of an old time lunch counter, or the booths that are super comfy to sit in, or the fridge covered in a million magnets. It's just immediately cozy and casual, which is the first indicator that good food is to follow. Food and drinks I got the comfy chicken biscuit, and comfy is the perfect word for it. It's an open-faced biscuit topped with fried chicken that they absolutely drown in sausage gravy. It was absolutely as good as it sounds. It was cold outside so to drink I got a hot caramel latte, extra on the caramel. You're gonna want that too. My wife got the breakfast enchiladas and the chorizo was so flavorful. Only one of us took leftover home, and it wasn't her lol. Service Staff is so friendly, from the hostess to our actual server to whoever is working the bar. You really feel like no matter what if you need help there is someone to help you. Food came out quickly, even though there was a steady constant stream of people coming and going Verdict Like I said Homegrown is absolutely a staple. It's a place for good food that will reignite conversations, make you smile, and fill your belly. You have to give them a visit. Until next time!

    Great friendly staff. Outrageously good food. You really can't go wrong here if you're looking for good quality home cooking.

    Comfy Chicken
    Hernley J.

    I'm pissed it took me so long to find this place. Best chicken biscuit and gravy in the southeast and I stamp that! I ordered the comfy chicken and I can't elaborate how amazing it was. Would you believe me if I said after I ordered it took 2 minutes to get my food? Well that's a lie, because it took 1 minute and 36 seconds. I timed it and I still can't believe it. I will never eat another biscuit and gravy besides Home grown. You're welcome!

    Fun Dip
    Lauren B.

    Flawless execution. Vibes, immaculate. Speed of service - exquisite. Soft butteryness of the biscuit = transcendent. Creative use of chorizo, grits, pimento cheese, and lays. Simply life changing. Fried chicken, perfect season, classic crispiness, just juicy.

    Outside

    She eats. He eats. And sometimes my plate steals the show. Homegrown came through with breakfast that knows what it is doing. I ordered the country fried steak with scrambled eggs and cheese grits and that plate was the clear winner. Crispy tender cubed steak covered in rich brown gravy with perfectly cooked eggs and smooth grits. The fried green tomatoes were easily the best I have ever had. Perfectly fried and paired with an incredible horseradish ranch that we are still talking about. The biscuit with apple butter was warm, fluffy, and delicious. I also tried the salmon biscuit. The flavor was good, but the salmon patties leaned a bit too bready for my taste. He ordered the steak hash and even he admitted my country fried steak was better. But the steak hash was still Important allergy disclaimer. I have a mushroom allergy and it was noted on my receipt. They have a table all purpose sauce that tasted amazing to him. He checked the ingredients and found out it contains mushroom extract. I did not taste it and was thankful he asked. Overall, Homegrown is a solid Atlanta breakfast spot with great food and plates worth debating. The place was amazing and you get a sense of a cozy 80s country diner!!! Just be sure to ask questions if you have food allergies.

    The one thing we knew we wanted after landing in ATL on an early flight was a great breakfast. After scouring Yelp, we decided on Home Grown--and it did not disappoint. Parking can be a bit tricky, but we arrived early enough to snag a spot in the small lot and get seated right away. Our server was friendly and super helpful with meal suggestions. I went with the Comfy Chicken Biscuit, my daughter ordered the Breakfast Tacos, and my sister chose the Chicken and Waffles. All three dishes were absolutely devoured, with barely a bite left on our plates. Great food, fun atmosphere, and friendly service--you really can't beat it!

    Cheese grits
    Courtney T.

    So upset that it took me this long to try Home Grown! The food all feels homemade and was absolutely delicious. Some of the best cheese grits I've ever had no exaggeration. Our server was so friendly and the inside is bigger than it looks. Loved that they support local artists and you can purchase different pieces! Also, the Velveteen chai latte was out of this world. Can't wait to go back!

    Inside fried peach pie

    The comfy fried chicken goes crazy, probably the most flavorful gravy I've ever had. The country fried steak is also great, the breading is nice and crunchy. Fried peach pie is okay, the peach is kinda sour, but maybe that's how it's supposed to be. I'm not from the south so I wouldn't really know. The restaurant had a pretty nice comfy southern vibe. Staff was nice and food came out in a reasonable amount of time, but on the longer side.

    Comfy Chicken
    Christina K.

    If you want southern comfort food with a diner atmosphere, this is the place to go! There's plenty of parking in the area. Their parking lot is pretty big but it was full when we arrived, but there's lots of free street parking nearby. We came on a Friday morning around 11 and had to wait about 20 min, so not too long, but I heard on weekends the wait can be much longer! The inside of this place is so quirky! I love all the decor they have! Our server was super nice and once we ordered, we got served very quickly! I ordered the comfy chicken and oh my gosh was it comfy! It was a like a hug to my soul! The chicken was SO incredibly soft and juicy it almost just like fell apart as soon as I bit into it! The gravy was delicious!! The sausage bits inside were amazing! And the biscuit!! So soft and moist and very crumbly! They have enough gravy which I loved because one of my biggest pet peeves is when I get biscuits and gravy and they don't give enough gravy. Would definitely recommend this place!

    Do they take reservations?

    No they are a first come first serve. Also be aware if you have multiple people in your party they won't seat you until all of your group have arrived. That's their policy as of a month ago so not sure if it has changed. Masks are optional.

    How's the parking?

    Parking can be challenging. Especially when it's busy. Don't keep any valuables in your car!

    How's the wait on Sunday mornings?

    It depends if you make it before 10:30 could be 5 min to zero wait. After 11 could be 10 to 30 min. I would call before to check.

    We were in town for a concert and my birthday, and decided to go for a nice breakfast for my…read morebirthday. Did some online research and kept coming back to Buttermilk Kitchen. Couldn't have been happier with our choice. Reviews I'd seen online mentioned parking is a bit limited and that the restaurant is frequently busy. So we were prepared for that even though we were going on a Thursday mid morning. I think there was an influx of people celebrating graduations because it was in fact very busy. However we got very lucky with parking and happened to come in right as someone was leaving. I was sure we would have a wait for a table, which of course would have been fine, but actually we were seated immediately! Which was super nice and unexpected. The atmosphere is bustling but not in a bad way. The restaurant itself is adorable and has a lot of character. It feels like you're having breakfast at an old friend's house. The service was great and our food came out in a very reasonable amount of time. I ordered a specialty coffee, I believe it was the almond joy cold brew, and it was delicious. Strong, which is how I like it and not overly sweet. I ordered the chicken biscuit on the waiter's recommendation and it was absolutely the best fried chicken I've ever had. Juicy and crispy. My husband ordered the pimento cheese omelette and was very happy with it, the bacon was thick cut and smoky and flavorful. The pimento cheese grits that came on the side for me were also a stand out, such great flavor. The biscuits are fantastic and the blueberry basil jam that came with my husband's meal was such a nice touch. We will absolutely make a point to come back to Buttermilk Kitchen next time we visit the Atlanta area.

    TL;DR: Super cute spot with decent breakfast offerings and great staff. Don't go out of your way to…read morecome, but worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood. First things first: the Chicken Biscuit. Buttermilk Kitchen's biscuit is on the crunchy, honey-flavored side. I personally prefer fluffier, more buttery biscuits, so this one wasn't my favorite. That aside, the chicken was crispy and well-seasoned and paired well with the cheese grits. If you ever wanted a dry, crunchy version of Homegrown's Comfy Chicken Biscuit, come give this a shot. I also tried the Hash Bowl, which was a bit underwhelming. It was a *lot* of potatoes compared to the eggs and bacon bits, and there wasn't a lot of seasoning other than the bacon. Would rather recommend one of the other options if you end up visiting. The drinks are good as well, would recommend the matcha latte (not too sweet!) and the French Press coffee.

    WAS THIS A HIT OR MISS ???…read more It was a HIT I have been dying to try this place out for years and I figured I planned a lunch with a friend so we could spend the afternoon chitchatting and this was the perfect spot. So we were warmly greeted and then taken to a quiet table in the corner that had the whitest tablecloths. It looked rather chic Then we had the best server. She checked on us numerous times, didn't rush us and offered suggestions. She kept our table clear of mayhem from empty plates and glasses. Now the food was delicious. It was so good. The chicken was moist and the outside was crispy. The mashed potatoes melted in my mouth. Plus, we had a slice of 7up cake for dessert. I high recommend this place. They have valet parking that is only $2. Great place to visit. Until next time.

    Location Carries, Great for Clients, Not for Value…read more Location, location, location. That's the story here. This spot earns its 4 stars largely because of the setting and service. Right in the heart of Buckhead with a beautiful view great energy, well-dressed crowd, and a strong place for a work lunch or client meeting. Service was solid, no complaints there. I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take. Overall: 4/5 great setting, just comes at a premium.
