Food: delicious. Simple. Tasty. I had the fish sandwich. It was quite delicious. The vibe was cool. Lots of nostalgic paraphernalia on the shelves (felt relatable to me and my childhood). Ambiance was quaint and friendly. Service was really chill & nice. Not too much. Not too little. I'll definitely go back cause there are so many other items in the menu that I waned to try. I was actually in the mood for a burger and INFATUATION ATLANTA rated them as one of their top 10 burger spots. But I didn't even get a burger... unless you consider a fish sandwich a TYPE of burger :))) Anyway ~ next time I go, I'll try the turkey burger. read more

This is a great neighborhood spot! The food is always good. Hard to explain other than top notch quality that you would topically find in a bar but better. I being my 2 year old here as well and the environment is welcoming whether he is screaming or not. They have tvs to catch what ever sport is on and the service is always friendly!! read more

We've been coming here for years and love their rotating menu. The Vietnamese Wings are always a solid choice... I was pleasantly surprised with the Birria grilled cheese this trip! read more

Great neighborhood spot with good food, good drinks, and great service. Felt like an old friend when I showed up. Love the daily food specials! The fried pickles and tater tots are a must! read more

I have been wanting a Turkey burger for a few weeks so I finally decided to feed my craving! I typically go to LOL burger, but read a review that raved about the turkey burger at this spot! I was sold! I arrived around 3:30pm. They have a dedicated parking a lot that had plenty of open spots when I arrived. When I walked in I read the sign that said seat yourself, so I did just that . The wait staff immediately came over with a menu. She asked if I needed another drink besides water. I am not a fan of ice cold water so I did request water with no ice. I checked out the menu period to arriving so I already knew my order ! I opted for the turkey burger with Parmesan garlic fries. The sound of this had my mouth watering in anticipation as I waited for my food to arrive . It appears the food was cooked fresh because it took a good 15 minutes for my food to arrived. There were only two other patrons in the restaurant so they were not busy . When my food arrived - I got so excited to take that first bite . I started with the fries! I enjoyed them but I did not taste the garlic . Additionally I am accustomed toParmesan cheese being grated thin- the cheese on the fries did not look like Parmesan, but they were tasty! Would I order them again? - no- they just did not taste like Parmesan garlic fries so no need to pay extra for it next time . Now for the star of the show--- this turkey burger was amazing!! Here is the deal, the actual Pattie is nothing special - it's what is included with the Pattie that makes this good. The kale slaw , and the sauce - oh my gosh!! You get every macro you need , protein , carbs and fiber!!! Then to make it even better it has a spicy kick to it ! When I tell you I cleaned my plate ! There was not one crumb on my plate when I finished! My only complaint -- please clean the router and the items next to it ! I sat in the booth directly by the router and the amount of dust on that thing was disturbing ! I wanted to clean it myself! I am sure this does not need to be stated - but I will be back and I would recommended you check this spot out ! read more

The Companion Restaurant checks all the boxes -- great food, great drinks, and a vibe that makes you want to linger a little longer. First off: the brisket grilled cheese. If you go and don't order it, you're doing it wrong. It's rich, flavorful, perfectly melty, and honestly worth the visit all on its own. The outdoor patio is another win -- spacious enough to spread out, but still cozy and inviting. It's the kind of spot that makes you want to grab another round just to stay a little longer. Speaking of rounds, the pours here are generous (yes, finally!) and everything on the menu feels thoughtfully priced. No sticker shock -- just solid value across the board. All in all, The Companion is the kind of place you can count on: whether you're stopping by for a casual lunch or kicking back for happy hour. I'll definitely be back. read more

The Companion - Brisket grilled cheese - American Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Still going 5 stars with the companion. Outside seating this time and it was a lovely evening. Perfect night to enjoy one of their fine selection of draft beers. Service is always on point, with friendly staff and it always feels like such a great neighborhood spot! We love that we feel like we are welcomed in to this community. Came with a young patron this time who enjoyed the grilled cheese sandwich and tater tots (I love the tots too, so good choice!) We also tried the Eggplant fries. Great presentation, reminds me of Jenga! Note that they are listed as "chili-crisp" and that chili is pretty active. Not a great choice for our toddler friend as they were way too spicy, our mistake. I also think they would have benefited from a creamy dip of some kind to balance the heat, maybe an aioli? Just my preference. Main course, I had the fish sandwich and it was perfection. Again, we always try to get back when we are in town! read more

A cool spot with tasty food, a relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. Had lunch here with a friend and had the best service from the bartender - he was super friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We had the eggplant fries which were very good - they have a small kick to them - and the smoked chicken nachos that were insanely good. Will definitely be going back to try some more! read more

Went with daughter's fiance. It's a bar with decent menu. had the fried chicken sandwich - highly recommended. Watch the spicy sauce though- it'll curl your nose hairs. Parm fries were good but Caesar salad was kinda soggy - and it was only noon. Drank the 404 beer which was good. Service was fine - bar kinda service for tables. It's open air on one side - so there were flies inside which was not totally fun..... Recommend for a casual meal - outside nights been better. Seemed like a nice patio. Kids will be fine here - too casual for a business meal and ok maybe for a casual date - if trying to impress no - if grabbing a bite during a day date , maybe. read more

Ok I'll give this place a break bc they only had one waiter serving the entire restaurant. Not good... But we finally got our order and we were not disappointed! The smoked chicken nachos, Vietnamese wings, and the crispy fish sandwich! These chosen items were all very very good! Nachos were excellent flavor and texture! Wings were like nothing I have ever had! The fish sandwich was the best I think I ever had! read more

The Companion - Crispy fish, Vietnamese wings, and smoked chicken nachos! - American Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Really delicious little neighborhood gem. My friend said he's had about the whole menu when he lived close. I got the Vietnamese wings without peanuts and the garlic kale. The wings were crispy and piping hot with a delicious Sauce. The kale was cut thin and deliciously garlicy. Minus one star for how the drink was kinda just a well dive bar esque drink. Staff was attentive and friendly read more

May make this our new neighborhood spot. Food es very good and quick. The patio is delightful and dog friendly. Inside is adorable too. We got two burgers, one was apparently voted best burger in Atlanta a few year back. While everything's as tasty, I would not that the burgers were very greedy so if you struggle with that (it's me hi) then you may want to opt for something else's. I was feeling that Greece in my millennial tummy a few hours later. This also causes the bottom bun to be quite mushy and gross by the time it reached our table. I know not everyone cares about that but I do. Also good to note the fries come with old bay on them. I can't remember specifically but I do not think that was noted on the menus. If it wasn't didn't see it. I can't stand old bay so I swapped those with my husband's tots and they were very good. If you like old bay like he does than you'll like the fires. Staff was friendly and knowable and didn't push us to order quickly. We're actually planning to go back with friends this weekend and I just plan to try something other than a burger and to take a stomach pill in advance lol read more

WOW - we tried this restaurant in west Atlanta and it was AMAZING. It is located near the corner of Bolton Road and Marietta Road. They have a great outdoor seating area and a bar that opens to that outdoor seating area. Our server, Caleb, was super kind and welcoming to us. I told him it was our first time and he quickly replied "it won't be your last." He was ABSOLUTELY correct. I asked Caleb what his favorite appetizer was on their menu. He recommended the Vietnamese Wings. We ordered these wings and they were a BIG Hit. The sauce is so amazing that my better half and I spooned it onto the tater tots that came with our meal. We ordered these wings and the Crunchwrap du jour. On the day of our great dining experience, the Crunchwrap was grilled fajita meat and onions in a pressed wrap. We ordered it with tater tots. I also ordered a side of crispy Brussel Sprouts. These Brussel sprouts were so yummy. Impeccable service and unbelievably creative dishes served in a cool atmosphere. This restaurant is a must try local experience in west Midtown Atlanta. I know we will be back to try more scrumptious dishes! read more

10/10 spot hidden off Bolton road. Great atmosphere inside at the bar and even better outdoor (dog friendly) patio! Staff is friendly and food is INSANE. Creative options with quality & a perfectly crafted beverage list to pair. They serve a Crunchwrap of the day which you definitely can't skip, and the wings (any flavor) are chef's kiss read more

Decided to stay in town an extra day to check this place out. I checked the hours and they re open 11:30 AM on Sunday. I tried to place a doordash order. They re closed on door dash. I called the restaurant to inform them, at 11:49 am. The young lady I spoke to on the phone said she didn't know how to do it herself. It's now 12:25 pm. 35 minutes later and they re still not open online. As a small business owner, that girl would be fired. Every moment that passes is another moment someone could be about to spend money on doordash to eat at your establishment. When this young lady determined she didn't know how to turn doordash on, and decided not to promptly bring it to someone's attention.... she costed you money and isn't worth a damn IMO read more

Very nice home town spot. Enjoyed the vibe and food. Will go back to try some other dishes.

The Vietnamese wings are 10/10!!! I ordered them and immediately placed another order to take home. I would give The Companion 5 stars alone with the wings but I have to take a point off for the flies. Throughout my dining experience I was constantly swatting flies. If anyone sees this from the restaurant please consider Zevo plug in lights or something to combat the flies. It was truly uncomfortable read more

This has been in my neighborhood for a while, and I finally had a chance to try it out; I was pleasantly surprised. The ambience was very nice, we sat outside and were able to watch the Georgia football game. Very family friendly establishment and pet friendly as well which is an awesome plus. The service was great, fast and very accommodating. I had the turkey burger and it was well made. Juicy packed with flavor. I would definitely come here again and recommend this place. read more

Friendly and attentive bartenders. Great atmosphere - back porch area is great in the spring and fall, perhaps a bit hot in the summertime. They have a bar seating area outside and inside and more tables inside surrounded by a beautiful mural on the wall and some TVs for the sports fans. There's a daily special and a daily Crunchwrap. Daily specials always posted on social media - my favorite is the Chinese breakfast with pork belly, fried egg and rice. read more

I came here with a pretty big group of 14 and was surprised there wasn't a lot of traffic on a Sunday night. I appreciate the fact that they have a parking lot with free parking which is a hard ask for places in Atlanta! Even though it was a seat yourself, someone from my group gave them a heads up and they were able to accommodate our group. We started off with three appetizers which were the pimento cheese dip, buffalo wings and the eggplant fries. Out of the three, I really liked the eggplant fries which came with a red chili oil which was delicious. The fries weren't too greasy and tasted pretty well considering eggplants can be soggy. The buffalo wings were also pretty good and weren't overly coated in sauce so they remained crispy. The pimento cheese dip was good too. For my main meal, I went with the toasted chicken salad sandwich which came on Texas toast and with cheese. The chicken salad itself was pretty good but wish it had grapes or cranberries to add a bit of sweetness. I also upgraded my fries to garlic Parmesan ones which were good! I did wish it came with a bit more seasoning. Overall, was pretty satisfied with my meal and loved our service as well! read more

Here's the thing about The Companion: everything on the menu is great. I'm not exaggerating when I say "everything". Over the years, I've had the Pimp Fil 'Eh, the Steinbeck Burger, the Patty Melt, the Philly, the Chicken Piccata, the nachos, the Vietnamese wings, the buffalo wings, the smoked wings, the brussel sprouts, the Chinese Breakfast, and who knows what other specials. They are ALL great. This is bar food perfected. read more

We've been a couple of time. I love the Vietnamese wings. We've enjoyed everything we've gotten. I like that it's kid friendly. Plenty of space for a stroller. The food is always good. But takes a while to get food. The water tastes like dirt so I'd suggest bringing your own water. I don't even trust the ice. It just tastes so bad. read more

My gf's and I were looking for a pet friendly restaurant near Smyrna so Sheba could come with. We tried one restaurant in the West Village off 285. They did not have a pet friendly patio. So we ventured a little further down Atlanta Rd. towards the city and yelp popped up with The Companion. We were all pleasantly surprised to find a place none of us had been to with a pretty yummy looking menu. We sat outside on their grassy patio. It was a tad bit sunny but the building eventually hid us from the suns rays. Our waitress was very nice and gave us some nice recommendations on the menu. I would def. like to go back the wings were to die for!! read more

Food was pretty good. We had the nachos and a couple sandwiches. The service was not great though. Took forever for our waiter to check on us and we had to keep getting up from our table to find someone to help us (extra napkins, to see menu, get the bill). Maybe it was an off night. Overall vibe nice though. read more

Ordered takeout for pickup from the Companion. It was ready quickly and well packed (appreciated they used paper boxes and not plastic). Fries were great, and their burgers were juicy but a little greasy. I definitely want to eat there in person soon! read more

A friend and I came here for dinner yesterday and really enjoyed it :) I'm definitely planning on coming back. I had the tower of power burger and he had the mahi-mahi tacos. I loved the burger. It was pretty messy but tasted great. I can't speak too much on the tacos but my friend said he liked them. Our server was courteous. There's a good bit of parking available but I could see it filling up on a really busy Friday or Saturday evening. It was packed when we went in at around 7:45 on Tuesday. I love the paintings they have on the walls and their decor, the place has a great vibe. read more

I had the fried chicken smothered with gravy, mashed potatoes and butter beans. Delicious. The tater tots were perfect. The eggplant fries were mushier than I remember, but the rest of the experience was so good I will give them that pass. read more

Friendly, slow, and we were mainly unnoticed throughout our time there Got the daily special. Was a beef sandwich. $$22 for flavorless meat as it was smothered, covered, spilling out of the bun saucy. The sauce overran any possibility of tasting the meat. Tots were amazing. Au jus (I had to get a side) was amazing The tots alone wouldn't keep me coming back. The employees love chatting with each other while customers await. Maybe this place is a social experiment and the owners don't care about their patrons returning. read more

Great service and food! Hidden in an area that has been going through redevelopment, this place is a gem!

Definitely enjoyed the ambience of this restaurant. The murals are nice and the decor is great. I love that the bar is indoor/outdoor. When I sat down I was greeted with fast friendly service from the bartender. She gave me some suggestions when I asked for food ideas while I enjoyed my nice cold beer. I ended up having the eggplant fries and the crunchwrap of the day. The fries were seasoned well and delicious. The crunchwrap was pork and I enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to my next visit here. read more
