    Nice clean decor

    Howlin is definitely right!! If this is your first time warning !!!the chicken is heavily seasoned!! Like your first bite of food will be a good layer of seasoning dust before you even get to the meat!! Went in after my Pilates class because now it's time to break the fast and eat!!! Was greeted with a friendly hello. Not too busy for 3:30 pm Monday. Had customers already eating and the food looked good. Ordered their chicken wing meal. Comes with a side. I choose baked beans. Had the sweet mild. The flavor of the season was good. Chicken cooked well. Juicy not dry. But just so much seasoning !! I had dust of seasoning in my lips after a few bites? lol! Next time I will say definitely light on all the shaking !! But the baked beans!!!! That was soooooooo good. And their apple pies!! Like how McDonald used to be. Soooooo good. Not pictures because I devoted the one I ordered. Next time getting 4!!! Definitely will try another side with wings ( less seasoning) for sure.

    Asher was so kind and his service was really good. He ended up making the food with love which was really helpful. what a kind soul

    This place is 100% no frills. They have chicken fingers - on toast, on a bun, or on a salad. And they are excellent. I had a tender plate with fries and "kinda hot" sauce. I wouldn't even call that mild, but it was very tasty. Give it a try, I think you'll like it too.

    I saw many posts on Instagram about Howlin Willy's Hot Chicken and happened upon this location as I was going to Trader Joe's. Took the opportunity to stop in and share a 3 piece tender meal with macaroni and cheese with my wife as a snack. We tried the sweet heat style which was perfect for us. Not too hot with little sweet. The tenders were fried to perfection!! Not too crisp and juicy inside! Very well seasoned and great for dipping. We tried two different sauces and they added the perfect flavor to our tenders. The Mac and cheese is made daily and I enjoyed that as well. The cheese sauce was great and macaroni noodles were cooked just right. This is not that box brand of Mac and cheese as their sauce hits differently. For dessert we tried a fried apple pie and I absolutely loved this with cinnamon sugar sprinkled over the entire pie. It was hot and good! The woman that served us at the counter was very helpful with recommendations of what to eat and checked on us while we ate. You walk in and order at the counter and they can bring your order to the table. The restaurant is cheerfully decorated and feels very relaxed. I will return here for the fried apple pie as well as trying their chicken sandwich.

    Classic chicken sandwich wth sweet heat flavor and fries.

Plenty of good proteins, bases, and veggies to choose from. I walked in as the doors were opening, and I got a welcoming greeting when I reached the counter. The "regular" size is HUGE and was more like 2 servings. I added the baked salmon to my mixed greens bowl, and it was very filling for my lunch over 2 days. That makes the price of the bowl totally worth it. All of it delicious! They had a pan of fresh-baked cookies out, and I had to get one. I thought they'd be crispy but ended up being on the soft side. They are huge though. Still tasty! I'll be back, often.

They did not have burgers when I went (Shortly before close on a Sunday), although the food quality was not a concern. Everything was hot and came out quickly. I found my experience to be broadly fine. The booth I was sitting in perhaps sagged a little more than I thought it would, an indication that it's a bit old. It wasn't particularly busy, but that's perhaps because I came in 50 minutes before close on a Sunday. Fresh To Order's stuff is a bit elevated, but it's still leaning heavily towards a more fast casual model rather than family dining.

I have recently returned from a trip to Japan and they're all the rage there. The soufflé pancake is a really light and airy "pancake". Each pancake is made to order and they have a wide variety of flavors. I've had the crème brûlée, blueberry cheese and their original with a selection of fruit. They were all delicious! Their eggs Benedict served on a croffle (waffle + croissant) is amazing! I do want to give a shout out to the owner/manager who is so kind and generous. He makes a point of checking on the customers to hear how their experience was. Today, my friend and I told him how much we enjoyed our Egg Benedicts, but we were a little sad because we didn't get a chance to order the soufflé pancakes. He replied very nicely, " Next time". A little while later our server brought us their House Specialty pancake, from the owner. So unexpected and very kind of him. I will definitely be going back. If you're in East Cobb, you should definitely treat yourself and go check out this little dining gem!

We started the day a little late so we were looking for a brunch place. I came across Fluffy Fluffy on Yelp and since they serve Japanese-inspired pancakes, we decided to give it a try. It was Mother's Day so the restaurant was completely full when we arrived. We took a while deciding what to order and luckily a table opened up at just the right time. We ordered both a savory and a sweet dish, the Eggs Benedict with Salmon and the Mini Soufflé Pancakes. One thing to note. Their website mentions that the combo set is available all day but this particular location doesn't offer it. We really enjoyed the Eggs Benedict. You can choose either a croffle or sweet toast and we went with the sweet toast which was delicious. I also loved the dressing they used on the salad. (I was disappointed to later find out that they actually sell the dressing!) The soufflé pancakes, however, were a bit of a mixed experience for us. We chose the mini version so we could try four different flavors: blueberry cheese, tiramisu, matcha tiramisu, and strawberry cream. In the end, we were actually glad we ordered the minis instead of a full-size pancake with just one flavor. Out of the four, the blueberry cheese was our favorite. The tiramisu flavors didn't really taste much like tiramisu to us and the strawberry cream topping was fairly simple as well. The pancakes themselves were also a little drier than we expected. I also ordered a matcha latte but unfortunately, it wasn't my favorite. It tasted a bit watery and didn't have a good matcha flavor. Overall, it ended up being a hit-or-miss experience for us but we still thought it was a fun and unique concept to try.

I have the rewards program, but if you're doing delivery and don't order here often its cheaper to go thru Uber Eats based on fees, at least in my experience. There's been a couple occasions where a few items are missing from the "create your own bowls" I've ordered but nothing major. Uber Eats has gotten sooo much better about refunding for little things like that, so it hasn't been an issue. They do charge by add-on if it's a premium item so you just need to pay attention if you didn't order it in person. I do understand they could be busy and just miss an item or two or ran out of certain ingredients also. I feel like the quality and consistency is better here than Chipotle or Gusto (at least the one I tried). I haven't tried all the other salad/bowl places nearby yet, but I do enjoy the freshness of the ingredients and options here. Their green goddess ranch is good (I haven't liked it at other places). I like their mushroom mix as well, probably even more than their steak. Their rosemary focaccia is a nice compliment to the bowls as well. I haven't had any bad items here so far. The portions are generous, which is not always the case with every salad place. I look forward to trying more things.
