    The roof top view plus a lovely meal was just what I needed before my flight back to California. The staff was so welcoming and respectful. Everyone there greeted me and checked to see how I liked the food. I ordered the #9 which comes with either chicken or fish, jollof rice, plantains & mixed veggies. The food came out steaming hot so it was definitely made to order. The chicken alone was flavorful, juicy and tender with a golden flaky crust. The red sauce definitely adds a kick, you must try! Now, the plantains had the perfect texture and taste, sweet and chewy around the edges This is my first time having jollof rice but I'm now a big fan. You can taste the authenticity in every bite, especially with hints of tomato and different spices. Even the veggies were well seasoned and paired nicely with everything else. If I ever come back to Atlanta, this will be my first stop.

    This place recently moved across street from their old location. Meal was delicious and would highly recommend it!!! Reasonable price and very authentic and staff so friendly!!!

    I really enjoyed the ribs. My wife liked her chicken and shrimps. Our friend Catherine enjoyed her steak and shrimps with Mac and cheese along with fries. They were fresh and tasty. We had to wait little longer than usual but they make the order fresh. Worth the wait.

    We have visited Traditional's Global Cuisine NUMEROUS times this year (2026) alone, and every…read moreexperience has been outstanding. Most recently, we hosted a graduation party there, and it could not have gone better. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the entire event was handled professionally from start to finish. Our guests had a wonderful time, and so many people commented on how much they enjoyed the restaurant, the food, and the overall experience. We received countless compliments from family and friends who attended the celebration. Having dined here on many occasions, we can confidently say that Traditional's Global Cuisine consistently delivers great food and exceptional service. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and professional, making every visit enjoyable. We highly recommend Traditional's Global Cuisine for both special events and everyday dining. We look forward to returning many more times in the future!

    Went here on a Friday night for a girl's night out for karaoke. Here's the short version: Our…read morewaitress Armani was great. The food was just okay. The atmosphere was terrible. Service: Our waitress was Armani and she was amazing!!! From the time she came to our table to introduce herself until we paid our bills, she was energetic, continously checked on us, and immediately fixed any issues from the kitchen. If you go, ask to sit in Armani's section. Food: Our table of 5 had mixed reviews on the food. Some thought the wings were good while others thought they were unseasoned other than the sauce on top. We generally enjoyed the Jamaican patties despite the confusion on our "patty flight." We were initially given 2 curry patties and later told it was because they didn't have anymore jerk patties. However, we were later sent a jerk patty, so that was confusing. Entertainment: This is where they lacked and why I wouldn't come back. We arrived at 7:30pm. During the time we were there, there was a boring old school play list and the songs people chose for karaoke. We came for karaoke because we'd been told by the bartender that night gets packed. That's not true, at any given time there weren't anymore than 10 tables with guests. Additionally, management was very strict about what songs could be performed for karaoke and told paying customers we couldn't curse. When I asked about this policy, the manger told me it was the traditional global way to be family friendly. If that's your thing, this would be the place for you but it didn't fit our needs for a girl's night and the women in our group were 35-55. Lastly, the two managers appeared to micromanage every move the servers and bartenders made, it just felt weird.

Parking is free and there is plently of it behind the restaurant and across the street to the bar. Drinks are strong! If you don't like a loud brunch this isn't the spot for you on a Sunday, but any other day is great.

    Finally, made it to this restaurant. I would be back…read more Parking, plenty. This is rare that a brunch spot has so much parking. There is a huge open parking lot on W. Mill across the street. There is also street parking. Wait to be seated. Best to have a reservation during peak hours. Weekend brunch and evenings I imagine to be busy. QR code menu. NOTE if you go during brunch and you get a cocktail from the menu you won't see the prices for brunch. That is part of the reason for the low rating. Even though the drink menu says the days and hours for those prices, you have to ask for the after those hours. The menu has your typical southern brunch flare with a twist. The drink menu is good. I ordered the impossible burger slider, it doesn't come with anything. Just two sliders. I ordered the potatoes. Even though the sliders were decent. It was a little salty. Presentation was good. Watermelon savage. I also tried the scrambled eggs - way too salty. It was inedible. My brunch partner didn't like the grits or chicken biscuit that it came with. Service was fine. Decor and atmosphere was nice. Overall, it was decent. It seems like a nice place to grab drinks and catch a vibe or be the vibe. Gratuity is included. Overall, decent spot. Oh and there is outdoor seating that includes a stage.

They have a upstairs eating area also. This place is simple but cute. It was lunchtime and service was top tier. I was greeted once walking in and immediately seated. I must do better with remember names...smh because my server deserves all the recognition, I can say he was a Caucasian, older gentleman. He was amazing!!! He was so nice, knew the menu, made recommendations, and kept a check on me. I found that all the staff helped each other, if water got low, another staffer filled it, plates got empty, someone different may take them away. Everyone was really nice. Now let's get into the drinks and food.... Mimosa(peach) perfectly mixed. The gumbo was recommended and it was good, it had nice size shrimp. The calamari was really good also. For my entree, I had the Shrimp cescer salad, it was delicious... even after finishing it up later that evening because I was so full. I could and would recommend checking them out for sure.

    Overall impressions: 4.5…read more Ambiance: lovely entrance playing soft jazz, the decor was modern with a rustic home town vibe. There were about 15 tables that could accommodate 1-8 people. The dining room can get loud if all the tables. Full bar / wine serving Cajun style with a "Atlantean" flair. Service: 5 stars Rarely do I give a 5 star rating for a server but our server was exceptional. He was polite, friendly, helpful and was very attentive. He mentioned some recommendations and as a foodie himself, he made a couple recommendations. Food: 4-4.4 stars Shrimp Po-Boy: 4 Stars for the Po-Boy due to amount of shrimp, though they were larger than normal. The shrimp was seasoned and lightly breaded. However, the bread was wonderful. Light, airy, flaky and had the right amount of crunch to it. The creole sauce was good but the Po-Boy needed some additional hot sauce. The perfectly cooked fries were AWESOME! Highly recommend to get a side if your entree doesn't come with it. Lightly salted with hint of other seasoning and herbs and had the right amount of chew and crunch to them. Also, I believe the oil they use was a better quality than normal. Blacken Mahi-Mahi- 5 Stars The grilled blackened fish has the perfect on of Creole seasoning and was topped with a house-made Chimichurri Sauce and possibly honey. Served with seasonally roasted root vegetables. My wife loved it so much the plate was practically cleaned! LOL! Dessert Beignet - 3.75 Stars By our server's recommendation we ordered a serving of 3 beignets w Pecan Praline Caramel sauce. The beignets were hot and fresh and had a "snowy" amount of powdered sugar. It was covered with goodness. When we bit into them, they were light, airy and had a bit of a chew to them. My wife likes them more than Cafe Du Monde but I thought the dough had more chewiness to them. The Praline sauce was ok. Also, the sauce is extra $3.50. NOTE: Do not order a carton of water - Cost $5. Wasn't worth it. Get regular water. If we were staying another day, we would definitely come back. I highly recommend the place. Also, the have another located situated in downtown Atlanta. But I suggest to stop by at the OG place in College Park. Small time atmosphere with great food! Enjoy!

    Our first mistake was not reading the reviews. A simple girl's night out turned into a nightmare…read more Parking: The signage directs you to the front of the hotel, where a sign reads "Valet - Coming Soon." With no self-parking visible, you're forced to follow the road behind the building into a paid lot. Parking is free for the first 2 hours, which would later prove to be an issue. Inside, the hotel aesthetic is bright and clean, and we were promptly greeted and seated, however, this was the last positive moment regarding service. Service: Our server, Sierra, set the tone quickly. Despite the restaurant not being busy and appearing well-staffed, it took an unusually long time just to take our drink orders. When we asked for white zinfandel, we received a rude response: "We only have the drinks on the menu." Ironically, my friend then asked for a margarita, which was not on the menu, and the bartender somehow managed to make it. Consistency and professionalism were clearly missing. Throughout the experience, attention to service level was non-existent. Sierra couldn't keep track of who ordered what, and delays continued for everything: taking orders, delivering takeout containers, splitting checks, and even getting water refills (which never arrived). At this point, we were joking that the server must get a kickback for delaying guests long enough to exceed the free parking window. Check-Out Chaos: At checkout, mass confusion set in. Sierra painstakingly recorded who ordered what, yet our checks still came out wrong. To avoid further delays, we privately sorted the difference within our group. When the signed receipts and cards were returned, we asked about parking validation--only to learn parking is just free for 2 hours, no validation provided. We rushed out, only to hit 2 hours and 1 minute, triggering a parking fee. As if that wasn't enough, one of our party members went back to leave a tip, only to be told we never paid. Sierra accused us of taking both copies of the receipt, despite never providing two in the first place. When we quickly returned to reconcile the confusion and were met with shifting stories: first we didn't owe anything, then she thought we were hotel guests, then finally that we took both receipts. The insult was unnecessary, disrespectful, and completely out of line. Final Thoughts: Great food, however server was rude, disorganized, and accusatory. If you go, pack patience and maybe a stopwatch for parking.

    Excellent burgers, reasonably priced for airport food…read more I have been travelling quite a bit and my burgerometer was down on the "E," red light flashing. When I saw this burger joint at ATL during my layover I figured, "How bad can it be?" It's terrific. That's the long and short of it. Terrific. The service was quick, the prices were more than reasonable, the portions were generous. And who doesn't appreciate a Fried Dill Pickle while they wait for their flight? (In full disclosure they were just a tiny bit on the oily/greasy side, but in the best possible way.) There's "Food Court" seating so finding a place for a family to sit together might be challenging, as travelers are scattered with empty seats between themselves. But that's pretty much the only negative I could point out. No lie: I'm actually looking forward to my next layover in the ATL!
