    Made to order sign. And yes they do!.....3/5/2019
    Kesht R.

    I finally made it here on 3/5/2019. Someone told me about Stem's over a year ago. Can't believe I've driven by here a hundred times or more and didn't know it existed. It's a tiny whole in wall next to the Florist. Easy to miss if you're not looking for it. Well I wasn't sure what to get. So for nostalgia I ordered red link split with everything (mustard, ketchup, chili, and onions). The hot dog buns was lightly grilled (toasted). Hand cut fries were great. The special comes with that and a can soda for $5.75 +tax. I also ordered a side of grits. No flavor--but that was fine because I was able to fix it up the way I like when I ate it later. The staff was nice. I will definitely be back. I wish they had longer hours but oh well... I'll get it in when I can.

    I'd travel for great food! Thumbs up to "Stem's Cafe!" I walked into such a pleasant and homely atmosphere. Ms. D was so welcoming, felt like I was home. The aroma was like my grandmothers kitchen! I ordered: salmon patty, I say "croquettes," cheese grits, scrambled eggs and toast!!! If you're in metro Atlanta or surrounding area and you want some good southern home cooking, just "branch" out to Stem's! No disappointment here!!!

    Everything is cooked to order. This place was booming . Uber Eats orders coming in back to back . I waited 20 mins for our food to be cook . Everything was fresh and delicious . I will be back to try their salmon breakfast patties and other items on the menu . It's very easy to miss the location . It's next door to a floral place . They accept cards and cash . If you do not have time to wait for your food please do not order . It's back owned

    I love this little restaurant. It's one of my favorite breakfast spots on the southside. The parking is tight, tight, tight and they cook their food as ordered so call ahead to get a jump on it. One thing I really like is that the employees are always friendly...never a bad attitude or an employee that wishes they were somewhere else. Food is excellent. There were a few hiccups when I ordered cheese in my grits or eggs and never got it. This happened when ordering through Uber Eats. I kindly asked for that to be refunded and they obliged. I've tried different things on their menu...my favorite being their Omelets and Salmon Patties.

    To each their own. You know how you can tell how good a resturant will be by how many customers? There was a steady stream of customers. The inside of the resturant is small and was packed continuously. However, this spot is not for me or my family. We waited over 40-45 mins, when we were told only 20-25 minutes. We ordered three meals for breakfast. Each meal came with the 3 pancakes and a meat, everything else we wanted had to be ordered on the side. So, we ordered 3 side scrambled eggs with cheese, two sides of homestyle potatoes and one side of grits. I wish my husband could get his money back. My husband rarely complains, especially about food. The pancakes tasted greasy and were VERY thick, like hard to swallow without taking a sip of a drink thick. The potatoes are difficult to describe..they were bland and two minutes from becoming mashed potatoes if they cooked any longer. You see the small helping in the picture? The potatoes were $4.00, the eggs, another small helping cost $2.50 and were also bland. My husband also said the grits were bland. The food look good in the picture doesn't it ? Well, save your time and definitely save your money. Our food went right in the trash. Maybe some of the other menu items are delicious. However, I am not going to be the one to try and find out if they are. Needless to say, this was our first time and last time dining at this resturant. If I could give zero stars I would.

    Club croissant so delicious! Comes with fries canned soda of your choice. Sandwich has lettuce, tomato, ham, turkey, cheese, and bacon.

    Small place, to go orders mostly. Small lunch counter on the side with 3 stainless steel stools. The food is good. Breakfast and Lunch Staple on Campbellton Rd. I would try this place again.

Additionally, I purchased the Kale Caesar salad as I've been on a long hunt for an all-Kale Caesar salad. Thankfully, social media led me to try this place. The customer service was excellent. She was attentive, patient, and made me feel very welcomed (felt like a hug). This vendor is located inside of Politan Row at Colony Square, so the ambiance was lively but not too loud for a Sunday. Can't wait to return! I'll take more food pics next time...ya girl was hungry LOL!

You place your order at the register and when your food is ready they call your name out. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad sandwich, the bread pudding and my friend ordered the tuna melt . The food came out fresh and did not take a long time to be prepared. I enjoyed every bite of my sandwich. It was flavorful and the portion size was great. Essentially you can eat 1/2 of the sandwich and save the other half for a second meal. Now the bread pudding was a disappointment. It was dry and lacked flavor, I would not recommend. My friend enjoyed her tuna melt, the only feedback she had was that the press did not allow for the inside of the sandwich to be warm. She thought the entire sandwich would be warm. I will be back for the chicken Caesar salad sandwich for sure !!

From the moment I called in, his customer service was top tier. Professional, warm, and intentional. He made sure my order was right, sent a quick payment link so things moved efficiently, and had everything ready by the time I arrived. That's how you run a business. When I pulled up, he greeted me with a smile, brought my food out, and confidently told me I was going to enjoy it and he was absolutely right. I originally planned to grab my food and go, but his energy made me slow down, sit, pray, and actually enjoy the moment. I asked for a lime Jarritos, and he recommended pineapple instead to pair with the jerk seasoned wild caught salmon sandwich. That recommendation was on point and really elevated the whole experience. That sandwich hits. Every bite pops with flavor across your entire palate. The salmon was perfectly cooked, juicy but not soggy. The kale had the right crunch. The onions tied everything together. And that homemade garlic butter on the salmon took it to another level. It's a creative spin on a traditional cheesesteak. I'm sure the beef options are great too, but if you want seafood, this is the move. I've had a Philly cheesesteak in Philly before, and honestly, I don't need to go back. When I'm in Atlanta, I'm coming here. Sammy, thank you for the hospitality and the intentionality behind what you do. You didn't just serve food, you created an experience. Thank you for praying with me. I will definitely be back.

Crispy on the outside, seasoned just right, and always fresh. You can tell it's made with care, not just thrown together. The portions are also really good, so you're definitely leaving full. The vibe is chill and no-frills, but that's part of the charm. Service is pretty quick, and the staff keeps things moving while still being friendly. If you're looking for a solid, filling breakfast spot--especially if you love salmon croquettes--this is definitely the place. I'll always be back

    I can't believe that after all of these great years in Atlanta, I'm just getting to try Gutbusters…read more Shame on me! I didn't visit the restaurant in person, but I came across them one afternoon when I was looking for a quick lunch for delivery. The variety of options available on the menu was so diverse, it was difficult to choose what I wanted. Luckily, their prices are so reasonable and they offer some great combos, so I decided to go with a few different bites. The beef philly cheesesteak (+ peppers) was my main item - It was good, but nowhere near the tastiest cheesesteak I've had in the city. Didn't expect it to be authentic but I think it could have used more cheese and flavor. Not bad though! The wings were my delicious and fried hard. Not my usual preference but they were so fresh and crunchy, I see the appeal now. I went with honey garlic + lemon pepper sprinkles, extra wet. They weren't extra wet sadly, but the flavor of the honey garlic + those sprinkles really sealed the deal. I wish I had ordered more! The fries were the frozen type but I found a few that were still hot and seasoned, I wish I had them right out of the fryer/oven because I think they would have been much better. The rasta pasta blew my mind because it was only $5 with chicken?! I don't know if that was a typo or what, but I went for it lol. My bf likes rasta pasta so I always get it if I see it on a menu. He wished there was more jerk sauce in the pasta but we had some in the fridge that he ended up adding in. Once he doctored it up a bit, he seemed to enjoy it. All in all, a good experience for a great price. I'll definitely be trying more of their menu to explore all of the flavors!

It seems like they put less ice if you get your item in a regular cup instead of a cup. They have plenty of seating. It seems like they're pretty busy. I've only went on Thursday and a Friday so that could affect it as well, but there was always seating whenever I went.
