    DATE: 10/30/2019 530pm ish PARKING: Street Parking, we got lucky and got a spot right out front. Since the weather has changed and its raining now, we wanted a hot meal so we rolled up on Q's. The restaurant is nice and clean and they have a nice soul food selection to choose from. You can dine in or take it to go, the choice is yours. The service is A1, very friendly...they even let me sample some of the beets, which by the way were so good. FOOD: I tried the turkey wings with cabbage and black eyed peas. Very delicious. This food was not over seasoned, it was just perfect for me. I'll be back as they have several other items I'd like to indulge in.

    Please tell me why it takes 45 minutes to make Bacon, potatoes and eggs? That is all. I don't care what time I come in this spot it is super duper slow. I have never been here where I didn't wait for cook to order food for a long time. Ever. As a business you want to satisfy the customer and this doesn't do the job. It would be different if my food was off the chain great but it wasn't. My bacon was burnt, the potatoes were lack luster and the portions are not good for a plate of food costing darn near $8. I want to keep patronizing this black owned business but they need to do better with cook to order breakfast. And stop being so stingy with the food.

    Friends and I wanted to go to another place to eat but there was a long wait. We put our names on the list and walked down the street when we saw this place was open. It's located across the street from a bank and parking lot. If it's busy, you will have to drive around once or twice for an open spot. You can park at the bank when it is closed. I checked the reviews to see what they were about and it seemed ok so we decided to give it a try. It's your cafeteria style place for lunch or dinner. I did see eggs in the posted photos but that was not on the menu when I looked. We had lunch/dinner instead and we were satisfied but nothing to rave about. My friends ordered the baked chicken and they said it was great which is a lot because they are very particular. I had the 2pc whiting with sides. I do like the variety of sides the have for vegetables. The fish was lightly battered which I liked and decent sizes also. The mac 'n cheese was less than desirable as i have had better. Thankfully they had collard greens that weren't cooked with pork, beef or anything else. I always have a hard time finding a place that serves it vegetarian style in the south. My drink was an Arnold Palmer so I could cut the sweetness from the tea but it seems like both the lemonade and the sweet tea had loads of sugar. I had to dilute it with water - not trying to get the 'sugar'. Would I go again? Probably not but if you are starving like we were, it's cool to fill your belly.

    This is the best soul food restaurant in East Point... You will enjoy the southern food and atmosphere... Most of all, your pockets will thank you... Breakfast is cooked to order, so placing your order by phone is best if you're ordering a takeout breakfast, lunch, or dinner in a hurry... The food is always fresh... Personally, I'm picky about my macaroni and cheese, and because theirs taste like the boxed kind, I choose not to partake... But all else is great! The desserts taste like your grandma baked them... This has been my favorite soulfood place for the past 10 years... And I've never regretted an order...

    Let's get something out of the way first: I was born and raised in the deep South on my great-grandmother's decades old family recipes handed down. I KNOW soul food! This restaurant has no soul and I hardly think what they serve should be called "food". Is it edible? yes. Is it worth your money? maybe. Let me also add that I grew up in East Point so this is not my first visit to Q's. It has been in the community for awhile, but the food has not gotten better. The meat entrees are not too bad. Such as, the turkey wings or baked chicken; but it doesn't take a five star chef to throw meat in an oven and bake it. I think the delight in a soul food restaurant comes from its' side dishes and desserts; which represent the creativity of the recipes that African slaves would churn out with the vegetable crops and little table scraps that plantation owners gave them. IMO, the vegetables taste like dressed up canned versions of something served in a prison cafeteria. I think the best side dish they serve is the dressing; which does happily remind me of food cooked for the holidays. (It's very moist and flavorful.) The corn muffins melt like butter in your mouth and one of these stars belong to them alone. It's very difficult to find a restaurant that serves fresh rutabagas cooked southern-style: Q's serves them but they taste oddly seasoned or overly-ripened. A constant disappointment in my life. Almost like a bad ex-boyfriend that you keep taking back because you hope that one day it will get better...but it doesn't. The macaroni and cheese is oily and lackluster. It even looks suspect when it is being served to you because while it is presented in the traditional baked casserole style dish, there's no substance under the melted layer of cheese. Where's the oomph?! There is none. Just overly boiled noodles stuck together by what may seem to be butter or...I don't even know. It's a mystery. Stouffer's frozen tastes much better. Q's is my choice when I do not want a drive-thru bag of oil from a fast food joint and it's very convenient because it's a stone's throw from the East Point train station, but it's not anything to write home about. The interior is set-up like a tiny cafe version of Picadilly's. You go through an entry point into a line where you see a cafeteria style buffet of hot-water serving pans filled with food and serving spoons hanging off the side. You pick your items, and move to the end of the line where you meet the cash register. Oh, I almost forgot! I have tried a few of the dessert cakes there and they aren't too bad. They have a very dense, cornbread-like consistency. They aren't light, fluffy or rich like classic homemade versions. However, they are worth giving a try on a good day. The owner is usually the one checking you out at the cash register: a beige colored Black woman, about mid-late 40's with short hair. She pretends to be friendly but it doesn't feel genuine. .

    Decent soul food spot in East Point. My partner and I never heard of this place until they were featured on the Scoutmob app for 50% off, so we decided on a whim to try this place out on a weekday night. Q's is a cafeteria style restaurant, my partner and I were the only people in line when we arrived so we were able to ask about their different food selections and they recommended the fried turkey wings, which is what my partner ordered and I opted for the fried chicken breast. For our 2 sides, my partner chose the sweet white corn and turnip greens and I chose the mac and cheese and cornbread dressing. Both meals came with a cornbread muffin. We had to wait about ten minutes for our food because they fry the chicken fresh. The restaurant has a decent sized seating area and a couple LCD televisions on the walls. We decided to have our meal to-go and they showed us our food before leaving the restaurant. I like when restaurants do that, it shows that they care about their customer's satisfaction. I enjoyed all of the food, it was very delicious and fresh. My partner was not quite impressed with it though for some reason. I would definitely return here and would recommend this place to others who may find themselves in or around East Point, GA and with the Scoutmob app deal you can't beat the price. Less than $8 for two good portion sized dinners.

    Turkey wings and rice with mac and cheese and greens. Foods overrated and bland. I've never used so much hot sauce in my life.
    Jasmine P.

    The people are nice here but the food is certainly overrated. Hopefully the breakfast is more flavorful than the lunch here. I showed up at 10:20am and was told that lunch started at 10:30am. Ten minutes isn't bad so I waited. By the time I got my food I couldn't wait to dig in, but I didn't get that home cooked flavor that I expect from soul food. The food was bland and the Mac and cheese was watery as if they skipped out on the eggs and real cheese. It was certainly Southern "Styled" But looks are deceiving. They are not a Soul Food establishment. Almost 10 bucks for pretend soul food isn't bad but why even waste ten bucks when you have to use almost an entire bottle of hot sauce to add flavor to everything. ...I should have waited and cooked for myself. And WHY do they advertise that they have peach cobbler but it is NEVER out?! Anytime and everytime I show up it's never ready! If they took Red velvet cake off the menu they may as well take off the peach cobbler too. Save your money and skip out on this place.

    Mac and Cheese: no, don't do it! Greens: a solid 'meh'. Dressing: passable, the only part of this plate I'm going to finish. :-/

    Lovely little shop in downtown east point. Served cafeteria style. Staff seems nice enough. BUT Piccadilly and S&S taste far better. So unless you like diabetic and hypertension friendly bland food, go there for a quick lunch. The greens are sans flavor, the Mac and cheese tastes odd like fake than blue box Kraft cheese, the cornbread has no salt, sugar or butter in the mix. Only the dressing was passable on my veggie plate and it even required gravy. BUT my dad loves this place, so if you're over 70 (or not southern and don't know any better), do go!

    Great southern comfort food. Items are served cafeteria style with a HUGE variety of both meat and veggie dishes. It was also under $20 for two adult meals so very reasonably priced.

    Found a dead roach in my drink....the worker offered me my money for the drink back. I could finish my 13 plate of food.

    Cafeteria style southern food. It's pretty good and the staff is friendly. The atmosphere is kind of pieced together but the good.

    I'm changing my mind about this place. The portions are getting smaller and the country fried steak was on the salty side.

The atmosphere is lively, colorful, and full of energy with music and a fun crowd. The interior is cute and welcoming without feeling overly fancy, and it's the type of place that works well for brunch with friends when you actually want a little vibe with your meal. If you're trying to figure out what to order, I'd look at the Salmon & Grits and definitely add the Honey Butter Biscuits. The salmon and grits are one of the menu favorites, and those biscuits seem to be one of the things you really shouldn't leave without trying. The portions here are also pretty generous. Service can depend on how busy they are, but overall the staff is friendly and personable. This is a popular brunch spot, though, so I wouldn't necessarily come during a peak period expecting to be in and out quickly. Parking is better than you might expect for a restaurant on Main Street. There's free street parking and a larger lot behind the building, although obviously the easier spaces disappear when the restaurant gets busy. Overall, good food, a fun brunch atmosphere, friendly service, and a convenient College Park location not far from the airport. I'd come back, particularly if I were meeting friends and wanted brunch somewhere with a little energy rather than a quiet breakfast.

She was also charged $3 per person for a cake fee (because we brought in our own cupcakes). There is valet parking. I am unsure how much it is, because we used accessible parking. All of these fees and "services" are a nuisance, but on par for brunch spots and Atlanta restaurants. The excellent part of the experience was the food, drinks and service. There is one vegan breakfast platter option. I ordered Fried Green Tomatoes, Grits with cheese, Croissant and an Old Fashioned. Everything was perfection. I didn't use any additional seasoning. Even the fried green tomatoes didn't need the remoulade or feta cheese, they were perfectly seasoned as is. I sure hope they were vegetarian friendly lol . I rate everything I ate an A. I sampled the French Toast Bites, they were good but fried too hard for my liking. The birthday girl was gifted two mini plates of cinnamon roll bites, they were delightful and perfect for sharing. The music playlist was on point and not too loud. The restroom was clean and provided extra toiletries to replenish as needed. I highly recommend this gem!
