Great food and drinks! Perfect date night. The service was good... the host stand could be a bit more professional but overall good experience. read more

Visit the restaurant w/ no reservations, waited 30-45 mins to be seated, which is typical on a Saturday night in Atlanta. Once seated, waiter took over 10 minutes to bring water after greeting us. Took our order and it took over a hour to receive our food. Customers who arrived 20-30 mins after us, received their food before us. No apologies or explanations. Seated at 7:55p didn't receive food until 9:15p. Overall food was delicious but waiting for our meal killed the vibe, customer service is a 6/10. read more

Came about 5 Pm on Super Bowl Sunday.. Good crowd but we didn't have to wait for a table. The ambience is incredible! Soft lighting, but you can still see your food and your partner. Huge TVs but you can still hold a conversation. Service is top notch (shout out to Chyna - server extraordinaire). However, the star is the food. Tender, succulent braised short ribs, buttery garlic mash potatoes, flavorfull steak bites, creamy, saucy pasta cooked just right. Check out and support this wonderful and worthy black owned gem! read more

10 out of 10! The food was amazing! The service was great. I was visiting ATL and found this place. The lamb chops were so good. The girl next to me was smacking. lol! I was like yeah I want that too! read more

My friends and I chose to come here based on my mother-in-law's high praise for this place. We came a couple of weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon and didn't have to wait more than 20 minutes for a table. We had a part of 6 people including a child. The ambiance of this restaurant was very chill. I loved their selection of music with nice r&b tunes. Once we ordered our food the food runners came to our table with our order in less than 15 minutes. Our food was hot and tasted so divine. Everybody loved their dish. I ordered their catfish with mac n cheese and collard greens. Let me tell you once you see the presentation of the mac n cheese you know it's the real deal. It's baked in a ramekin with the crust and browning on top. The collard greens were very flavorful. We ordered the honey buttered cornbread and MY WORD.... I have NEVER had cornbread that moist and mouthwatering in my life. I can't wait to come back here again. read more

The food was yummy, but i thought the portions were a tad small for the amount you're paying, i went with a party of 6 and paid for myself and one other and my bill was $97 and we didn't even order alcohol only the blue lemonades which were delicious btw but that's my only complaint. The waiters were really kind and helpful and the food was really well cooked, flavorful and we received it very quickly! The restaurants was clean, and nicely decorated. read more

The south is known for producing some amazing soul food and southern spots well this spot is definitely one of the the best in the area. This quaint intimate space packs a mean punch when it comes to delivering exceptional service and food. I know you have had your grandmother, auntie and moms home cooking BUT these elevated southern expired dishes will have you second-guessing your Sunday selection . They offer some colorful handcrafted cocktails and some of the best homemade sides in the area. Don't @ me but they may have the best green beans in Atlanta ! Normally bar service can iffy BUT when I tell you Symone and Joshua provided exceptional service ! Parking is free which is also a plus but be sure to arrive early seating space is limited . For a video of these delicious food check out @AtlFoodGoals on IG !! read more

The food was delicious. Our server was very nice . However The host- The older lady that came out to open the doors and take those with reservations- I did not like her attitude. She acted as if we were in a soup line to receive free soup. read more

The food was absolutely amazing and worth the wait. The owner was friendly and was open to engaging with her customers accepting feedback while also being informative. With that being said, it was a Sunday when I visited. The ambiance was a southern comfort feel. Food savvory but the wait times after a reservation has been made was the bummer. However, the owner was kind enough to understand our frustration and her ability to offer solutions to accommodate our party was the highlight. Thank you. I recommend the Fried Salmon Bites as an appetizer Filet Minon bites with the Collard Greens and Mac for some Razzle Dazzle! read more

The restaurant is beautiful. The music selection is great. The wait for the food would have been worth it, if it come out hot. We waited a while for our food. I have no problem waiting if my food is going to be hot. The chicken wasn't seasoned. The fish was cooked to long. The 3 people beside us had waited so long for their food that they got to go trays after finding out their food was warm. The guy paid and they left and said they were going somewhere else. I was not satisfied at the Fayetteville location on last Sunday. We paid 126.00 for some warm food. I have sent two emails but no one has responded. read more

10/10 food is always bomb! Service is always pleasant! Music is always good, and not too loud. Free plentiful parking!

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. You should make reservations because the line is outdoor.

Food is always good and we normally sit at the bar so service is quick. I be tearing up the lamb chops and corn bread. Last time i came i wasn't a fan of the yams so i probably won't order those anymore but i will return! read more

Food was phenomenal! Visited the Atlanta area from Boston and was looking some local good food, this place did not disappoint. I couldn't believe the line to get in, make reservations in advance. read more

When I arrived the line was out the door. People were waiting in the car to get inside! I see why . Listen this restaurant pop out some good serious down south cooking you hear me ? I wasn't able to experience the inside but I shall be back !! I had to wait 10 mins to place a Togo order, the restaurant so small , because of this they only allow 2 ppl inside at a time! My food took 25 mins to come out. Everything was delicious I have no complaints. read more

We have heard good things about this restaurant but our experience was disappointing Food did not match the reviews, lacked seasoning on turkey chops Honey Button Cornbread tasted like (Jiffy) cornbread with honey Yams too sweet, too much cinnamon and nutmeg Out of peach cobbler Pound Cake - tasted store bought Service mediocre No condiments offered No refills on drinks (water & SFK punch) Too loud! Not a club Atmosphere did not match menu prices 18% gratuity automatic....then was given check with first option for a tip!?!?! Not read more

I would advise going to this restaurant on a weekday. The first time we went on a Saturday , right when it opened. They had a two hour wait because the restaurant is too small to accommodate a lot of ppl. We came back on a weekday and it was a lot better. I ordered the Turkey chops , greens and macaroni. They were all really good! I'd recommend!!! read more

My second time eating here and I had a reservation for 8, was told that they would text when they were ready, then when they texted we stood outside for another 10 mins. Food was good per usual, but I had to send my drink (espresso) back to the bar twice as it was thick and not shaken. The server was a guy that rushed through everything and didn't pay attention to our needs. Kind of disappointed in this trip here this time. Ambiance and music were nice. Probably won't return read more

I sat at the bar with Joseph. His customer service was top tier. The food was amazing!! I had the turkey wings, rice, black eyed peas, broccoli...literally ordered another one to go!!! If you haven't been you better go..the vibe and food are unmatched read more

I've been wanting to try this place because the food looked good and I love supporting black businesses. The food is good, there's no doubt about that however I was disappointed with the small portion of food I received. I ordered a to go wing platter with Mac n cheese and greens. The wings were small and the portion size of the Mac and cheese and collard greens did not match the $28 dollars I paid. It appeared to be a nice vibe with dope decor inside along with a bar as well. The food was good and you'll definitely enjoy it but I probably won't be going back because I don't feel the food received match the high price they charge. read more

I was added to the waitlist and seated in about 15-20 minutes on a Sunday which wasn't bad. I had the Cajun lobster pasta which was so spicy I couldn't really taste the flavors. Chicken wings were hot and fresh. Cornbread was delicious. Peach cobbler needed some work, a bit overcooked. My strawberry lemon drop did not taste like a strawberry lemon drop. The bartender added the strawberry liquid to the martini glass instead of the shaker, never seen this before. Extremely pricey food that I honestly cannot recommend. Also it was very hot in the restaurant. Overall a mediocre experience. read more

Don't think about it, GO!!! The music was on point. My drink, the Dusse Margarita, was so good. I sat at the bar, but my server still was very attentive. I ordered the chicken, mac & cheese, and collards with the cornbread & the pasta with salmon to go. When I tell yall EVERYTHING was good, I mean EVERYTHING! I sent my cousin a picture & she ordered the same things & added the yams. I don't usually eat yams, but she insisted I tried them & I HAVE to go back to get them. This place is a 9/10. I only wish it was bigger. read more

The food, the ambiance , and the service was 10/10. I Made reservations at 4pm for 4 guests for my birthday & we were seated quickly and had plenty of space. The music was amazing, and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was super clean and the food was prepared quickly. Everything was delicious! The lamp chops, fried catfish, the yams, collards greens, and plenty of more were incredible! Definitely check them out if you are considering. read more

I think you could sum up the food from this place up in two words... TOP TIER!!! Now, when you pull up, you might have to wait a little bit, but trust me, it is 1000% worth the wait!!! I ordered (online/to go) the catfish, with the candied yams and the collard greens as the sides with the honey butter cornbread, and I could not be more pleased with every single bite!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND & they will for sure be getting my money in the future. read more

Southern Fire Kitchen is an amazing dinner spot with some of the best soul food in Atlanta. My friend and I saw this restaurant on Tik Tok, and were in awe at their videos. Southern fire kitchen does not take reservations. You could join the waitlist once you arrive at the restaurant on Yelp. At the time we went they had closed the waitlist online so we had to put our name down in person once we got to the restaurant. This restaurant is very popular, and has a small dining area, so the wait time was rather long. We waited over an hour but the hosts and staff were very friendly as they updated us. When we got in, the restaurant has a nice dark gold ambience with amazing music playing. We met our waitress as soon as we came in and she gave us some great suggestions on what we should try. We ordered the fried chicken with macaroni and cheese and yams, and the turkey chops, mashed potatoes, and green beans. The chicken wings, and turkey chops were some of the best that I've had; they were fried perfectly, very tender, and full of flavor. Each one of the sides we had were amazing; especially the mac & cheese and yams. Needless to say, when I'm back in Atlanta, we will be returning to Southern Fire Kitchen. read more

The food and service was over rated. First l ordered the catfish w/ fried okra and yams .when I received the food my fish was super oily and fried okra fried way too hard . I decided to change my order to fried chicken wings w/re cooked okra and yam . That whole order wasn't giving excitement even down to the taste . Never again SFK count your days. My neighbor hood counter store got y'all beat with soul food!! Got my check and they add 18% gratuity to my party of three like wtf . The server wasn't worth that either! She didn't care because that 18% already a done deal for her .So she didn't have to work for anything. Don't waste your time or money on this spot. Check out RC kitchen on Gresham Rd.. real soul food and much cheaper +more food for your bucks ! read more

The location I visited is located in a plaza owned by a black couple in Fayetteville, Ga. I saw them being interviewed on the news and decided I'd support. I was craving soul food and was excited about visiting Southern Fire in support of another black owned business. Had I read the replies the owner wrote in these reviews before I went there, I wouldn't have gone. If you haven't done so, please take a moment to peruse the reviews for her replies. They're very nice nasty and unprofessional. My experience upon entering the restaurant was shocking. The hostess barely spoke and looked like she didn't want to be there. I almost walked out. The decor was beautiful. The 2 star rating is for the waitress. She was very nice and attentive. I had my two children with me and we spent $150.00 on 3 meals. It was very pricey for the quality and quantity of food. We had 4 chicken wings and 2 sides. I also ordered cornbread which I think should be complimentary at this price point. I've spent less at other establishments for the same amount of food. The food wasn't bad but 45.00 for a chicken dinner and soft drinks with NO REFILLS is ridiculous. And only 3 soft drink option choices, no diet drinks at all. No refills on lemonade either and I believe that's $5. Additional sides were extremely overpriced. This is the second black owned restaurant I've gone to that does not offer soft drink refills. It's very disrespectful and low brow. Gratuity is added to the check and another tip is the first thing you see when cashing out with your card. I'm not leaving a tip if you've already added it to the bill. The hostess needs to tighten up and put a smile on her face. She was unbelievably dry. Refills should be a no brainer and the owner obviously needs some management training and coaching on receiving critique from customers patronizing her business. I see the same issues I've expressed in older reviews at this location but they haven't changed a thing. My money is hard earned and will be spent elsewhere. If you're looking for a professionally ran black owned restaurant visit Grits And Eggs Breakfast Kitchen on Piedmont or Cumberland Blvd. The food is lit and the service is top tier. You feel welcome as soon as you hit the door. read more

The location is fine, plenty of free parking. Very busy, almost an hr wait. The food is good, real good, but a bit pricey. The service and ambiance are decent. However, they automatically charge an 18% tip to every check. I didn't see where that was publicized and I wasn't made aware of that in advance. Also, our server was fishing more tip money because apparently they have to split tips with other staff. It's not close to my residence so I'm not sure that I'll be back, but I'd visit often if I lived nearby. read more
