    This is what was advertised.

    I found this place on TikTok and decided to come visit. I showed a plate that I saw on TikTok. Paid $80 for some past w/ shrimp, oxtails, & lobster. The plate is half the size advertised on TikTok! The lobster WAS NOT a full lobster. Very much ate up. Very much lil lobster bites inside of a lobster shell. MIND YOU, when the cashier was ringing me up, I asked if the lobster was full and she said it look just like the plate on TikTok! And this right here, is exactly why black business don't succeed. The first 2 photos are what is advertised. The 3 plate, was what I received. $28 for 2 oxtails. $26 for lobster bites. They played with me, don't let them play with you.

    For quick a stop shop for lunch, this is the perfect spot! Servers are beyond friendly and helpful. The place is fairly clean, with a cute instagram art worthy corner. As for food, wings are truly exquisite, tons of variety for sauces, and the fries were amazing - super crunchy! Also, portions are huge, definitely worth the price. My next trip to Atlanta, I'll be sure to stop by again.

    First visit was pretty good. FYI the location is the plaza of Wayfield grocery and the hours of operation are incorrect on here. We arrived about 20mins before opening time at 12pm and were very first orders of the day. Cashier extremely nice and helpful and food was ready in 15 mins. I really like how they have a buzzer system and you can order together and pay separately so that group orders ready at the same time. Salmon griller rice bowl with cheese, all veggies and shrimp - phenomenal! The food was well seasoned and flavorful. Rice was perfect and that Taste Bud sauce set it off! They only give one small container of sauce so just pay for extra one it's almost required lol. My sister tried the Steak Pineapple Griller with spinach, mushrooms and cheese. The pineapple also isn't really palatable just for decoration and it costs more. The packaging for the pineapple bowls are not suitable for traveling so I would strongly urge owners to find alternative packaging options. We both tried the pineapple lemonade and agreed it was not that great as the TikTok made it look lol. It is definitely just koolaid/lemonade with no lemon. Our meals were about $20 each with tax so it wasn't bad on the wallet and having quality food. Unfortunately we were so hangry so there wasn't much time for a photo shoot lol If I am on this side of town and want non- fast food I will return, but I'm not going out of my way for it unfortunately.

    Got my order wrong had to return to store to complain ! Wait was over 40 minutes!!! Do NOT RECOMMEND!! Children was over the register underage to crying and complaining over while i was making my order ! 0/10 go some else yall !!!

    This place gives me tropical vibes! I had been hearing about the pineapple grilled and when I went on their ig and saw I could eat out of a pineapple I had to try it! It did not disappoint! I got rice, salmon, onions, bell peppers, pineapple, cheese, with a shrimp skewer placed on top... eat was absolutely delicious! We had to wait almost an hour for it but with the covid-19 times going on I'm practicing patience. It was worth the wait and I will definitely be going back for another pineapple Griller! Oh and their customer service was excellent. You gotta check out my pics!

    I've been wanting to visit this spot for some time now. I'm very mindful of how and who I send my money with. I especially do my best to support black business in Decatur, but I won't support a business that doesn't appreciate its customers. I would like to start off by saying the customer service was great. The lady at the counter could tell it was my first time there so she went over the menu and made recommendations. Ultimately I settled on Shrimp Grillers. I waited about 10 minute for my food-typical. The disappointment came about when I got my food. Immediately I noticed my food was put in a to go container that was turned upside down minimizing the amount of food I got. To make matters worst the container was one of the smaller sizes used for lunch portions- eye roll!! It came with 4 medium size shrimp, a boat load of cheese, veggies and 1 cup of cooked riced. Which means I had to cook dinner after going out to buy dinner. I read the reviews but still decided to give them a try. Unfortunately I won't be going back. I understand that businesses need to make a profit but I don't like feeling that Im being taken advantage of in regards to the way they're manipulating the portion sizes.

    Overall the food was amazing! I had the Salmon and Chicken Pineapple Rice bowl with veggies with the pineapple lemonade! The customer service could have been better, it wasn't bad but I have to mention that!

    Had the pleasure of trying TasteBuddz out during Yelp Restaurant Week. Had not heard of this place before but wishing I had. I've obviously been missing out on some things. TasteBuddz Atl is located in a humble shopping center (w/a Wayfields grocery) close to the intersection of Columbia Drive & Glenwood Road. There is signage above the restaurant entrance. Don't recall seeing it on the shopping center's signage. Just know that it's there. It's a small establishment that could seat maybe 10-12 people tops. I imagine they get a lot of take-out orders. Customer service was really great! I was greeted promptly after entering. The young lady was very helpful and patient since this was my first visit. She walked me thru their ordering process and gave me a some recommendations since I was a first-timer. I decided to go all the way and get a pineapple griller w/chicken, peppers, broccoli, cheese and the TasteBuddz sauce on the side. I also was easily persuaded to try the pineapple lemonade. So good!! Let me discuss the pineapple griller. This is something I'd expect to see on the menu at an island resort situated right off the beach with a slight warm breeze brushing my face. Um...yes. It's time for a vacation. But I digress. This dish was really good! It's served up in a half portion of a pineapple. Cool presentation. And it's seasoned well. And the sauce was tasty too! The pineapple lemonade w/italian ice was the bomb-diggity!! Can't wait to get this on one of our hot summer (or spring) days.

You order inside, and they'll bring your food out to your car or to the picnic tables out back under the shade. I got a single smashburger with extra bacon and grilled onions, plus an order of tater tots. Everything was SO good! I could eat this "gas station burger" any time. Definitely one of those hidden gems worth stopping for!

And the standards for this type of business concept are normally belooow the basement. But I figured we'd stop in while running errands in the area and grab something to munch on. I saw that they fry with tallow and I'm always on the hunt for some beef fat fried goodness. Now it's a rarity to spend less than $10 on a good burger these days in ATL, and even more of a rarity to feel that said burger was worth your coins. I side-eyed their $6 single but figured I'd give it a shot. Man, NFA proves that a burger doesn't have to be "gourmet" to still be damn good. The sauces, mustard, juices from the beef, slight sweetness from the potato roll, the crunch of the pickle... it all combines into something simplistic in nature yet magical. I usually expect this level of good (and inexpensive) in South GA but they brought that small town flair to the suburbs of Dunwoody. I hate crinkle fries normally but the decision to fry them in tallow makes me a believer. Simple, classic menu. No frills. Hot and fast. Great customer service, too. Just wait in your car and an amicable young adult (of which they seem to largely employ) will bring your order out to your car or to their picnic tables in the back. $17 for two to eat... in this day and age?!?! This place puts fast food burger chains to SHAME.

We arrived about two hours prior to them closing, which turned out to be perfect, as we beat the crowd and before they stopped taking orders. That was my only negative observation, many people were turned away nearly an hour before closing. I know I would have been upset if I drove all the way to Decatur and couldn't place an order. Hopefully, they will improve their processes so everyone can experience the greatness that they're cooking up! When we arrived, one of the owners greeted us with a lively personality. She handed us menus and told us to select a seat. The seating is spacious, and you can opt to sit at the bar, a table, or outdoors. It's open seating, so it's first come, first served. After selecting a seat, our server arrived shortly thereafter and let us know that the shrimp fries were out of stock before we ordered. We were hungry, so we already knew what we wanted to order. I chose the "THAT SH!T SLAMBING" with feta cheese, initially opting out of the fries, but I don't think the server heard me, and my husband ordered the "Who Wants Beef" with fries. Everything was cooked fresh to order, so there was a slight wait. I would recommend planning accordingly if you're really hungry, as the wait maybe longer than expected. We also shared a Jumex Nectar, as they only had one left. While waiting, I was told they were out of feta cheese, though I saw a dish with feta come out after ours; however, they may have ordered it before us. I was still a bit disappointed, as I believe the feta would have taken my lamb burger to another level. When our food arrived, it was hot and fresh. I was glad I ended up with fries, as I was hungrier than I thought. The burgers were amazing and seasoned to perfection. You can tell the chef is cooking with passion, as you can taste it in every bite. I also appreciate that they utilize farm-to-block sourcing, providing fresh, handcrafted, high-quality food. If you've been considering dining here, don't hesitate any longer, just go! Be sure to arrive early or call ahead for takeout. I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting again!

I opted to order at the bar so I could enjoy a beer and where it is full service - otherwise it is ordering at the register when you walk in. Service at the bar was friendly, efficient and attentive. I ended up with a double beef burger (each patty is 1/4 pound) at $9, pimento cheese (.75 cents) and Grindhouse Sauce which was in the 1000 island / Mac sauce territory. I was undecided on a side so lucky for me there is a "Frings" option of 1/2 onion rings and fries ($5.75). The burger was a little on the dry side even with the toppings but the potato roll made it a little more interesting. The onion rings were great and can't go wrong with crinkle cut fries. Cold Tropicalia on draft ($8) served by friendly bar staff made it a really great experience. Even though this is not my favorite burger, the sides, the drink options and the overall vibe of the place with excellent service still will make this a place I could visit again. Maybe giving a different burger a try instead of a BYO like I did the first time out.

You order at the counter and you can order anything there out of the all the restaurants they have. So you can order from any of five different spots and one register but I came specifically for Burger time. Birria burger - Now this burger was pretty good. It wasn't amazing but it was good. It needed an extra something. Typically. If you have this type of Taco you'll have something that you can dip the taco in, but the burger just came a little bit more dry and I feel like they could have had something extra to help it along. Queso fries - the fries were good. I feel like they kind of skimped a little bit on the queso, but other than that though they came out very crispy and the queso that was there was pretty flavorful. Onion rings - At this point I was just being a glutton LOL. Bunion rings were good and they had come back sauce and another sauce with them. I feel like they were kind of fried a little too hard though. But anybody could have an off day, not a big deal. You just don't want to cut your gums up like Captain crunch while you're trying to chew an onion ring LOL! Eventually I'll try the other couple of things. Like I haven't had the taco spot there yet, but it's on my list of things to do. It's a good duck off if you're in the area because there's a shopping area right across the street, so if you're in that Hood, I would definitely suggest giving it a checkout.
