    Walked in and was seated immediately.

    The service was excellent, we walked in and was greeted and seated immediately. Our server was courteous providing menu suggestions. I enjoyed a biscuit sandwich which included eggs cooked precisely as requested, which is rare. The bacon was crispy but of course I wanted an extra side of bacon! My brunch companion enjoyed her grit bowl that also comes with a biscuit. We both agreed the biscuits were the perfect amount of flaky without being dry. We stayed and chattered for about a hour after we ate enjoying the music and friendly atmosphere.

    A staple in Atlanta! The staff is awesome! The grits are dreamy and they serve Chicken sausage! They have the same decor as the other locations, which is whimsical. I came on $5 Mondays and was super full. Definitely recommend.

    If you like biscuits and have a calorie deficit this is a great place. My breakfast came with a waffle, biscuit, two eggs, creamy grits and sausage. Service was quick and friendly. The place has a diner atmosphere. I enjoyed my biscuit with the apple butter. The eggs were fine and I was just ok with the turkey sausage. With coffee and tip my meal ran close to $30 but certainly I had a lot f food.

    Everyone in Atlanta has been to a Flying Biscuit Cafe location one time or another but it is not as highly celebrated as it should be. The parking can be validated. The parking was free because of the validation from the restaurant. The staff was nice and attentive. I ordered the Stuffed French Toast Breakfast. It is two slices of French toast cut in half and covered with cream and strawberries. It also comes with dreamy grits, eggs, sausage, and a biscuit. The French toast was the star of the show and well worth it. Dreamy grits taste like they have some gravy in them and they are definitely dreamy. Give this place a try.

    This restaurant is located in a trendy little food court. There is garage parking available, and yes, they do validate. There are a few free spots available for those picking up food. There is a shared dining area outside and the restaurant has a huge dining area and a bar area with seating. The dining are is bright and is decorated with colorful murals. It is a hip and trendy spot. There are a couple of televisions above the bar area to watch. They have breakfast food that includes pancakes, hash, waffles, bacon, eggs chicken and waffles, omelettes, and of course biscuits. For lunch, they have sandwiches, burgers, chicken tenders, salads, and shrimp and grits. There are also some cookies to sort through there. My interaction with the staff was limited, as I ordered take-out. However, they were nice enough. I ordered the Big Cheesy Patty Melt, which came with potato chips. FYI, they do not have fries. My food was ready in about 12 minutes. I am normally not a chip fan, but I liked theirs. They were really good. I liked the seasoning on them. The burger was not the best that I have had, but it was pretty good. My experience here was decent. I enjoyed my lunch. This place is worth a try if you are in the area.

    Picked up a breakfast sandwich on the way to a trade show this morning and it did not disappoint. They offer sit down service, but also have an abbreviated menu for quick to go orders. The cashier was friendly, took my order and got it out quickly. It was great sausage egg and cheese biscuit. I'd definitely revisit this spot for a tasty breakfast

    Flying Biscuit is always a vibe. The food is flavorful and comforting, especially the biscuits and grits. Service is friendly with a laid-back feel, and the atmosphere has that cozy southern charm. A great spot for a good breakfast or brunch any day.

    Solid meal at the flying biscuit. I'm a biscuit connoisseur and this place lives up to expectations! I came here 2 days in a row that's how good the biscuits were. Next time I'll have to try the pancakes/waffles which I'd imagine are good too. Yesterday when I went they were celebrating some type of anniversary so they gave me a slice of cake for free which was awesome and unexpected. I don't live in Atlanta but I would definitely come back when I'm back in this area.

    Hot mocha latte

    The stuffed French toast was amazing! If I have to go back to ATL this will definitely be my first stop. The service was great and the coffee was hot. However, don't get the chicken sausage, it's dry.

    Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit

    If the server is any indication I'm about to be disappointed. The biscuit sandwich was better than expected so good I ordered an extra biscuit with butter and honey. The server is obviously inexperienced so I'll just leave it at that.

    I can't believe it took me so long to eat at Delilah's! I've known of this highly lauded business…read morefor years but never found the right day when I was craving soul food and in the area to order. Until recently. I decided to have a tapas-style dinner with food from The Works and just had to grab some chicken from Delilah's. The menu is plentiful without being overwhelming, except when it comes to picking a favorite between the flavorful options. I knew that I didn't want or need a full meal and opted for their 3 whole wing option that came paired with cornbread. The young man who took my order was so polite and patient, as there were a few folks in line and waiting for previously placed orders. He let me know that my order would be ready in about 15 minutes so I took the time to continue my food-finding journey around the market. When I returned later, I had lost track of time and figured I'd just poke my head around their stall to see if my chicken was ready. It wasn't at that moment but I took some time to observe the process. There was only one guy in the open kitchen and prep area creating all of the meals and he was on the move. If I could add smells to my review, this one would smell like fried chicken and cornbread. It was all so fresh! When my order was ready, I only made one other stop before heading to my car to go home to my family... but not before I tested those whole wings from Delilah's. When I say that they were fresh out of the grease? Babehhh. It's like he just threw them right into the basket only seconds before. It was sooo crunchy, so juicy, just a fantastic wing. The hot sauce was a nice pairing but some spice in the breading/meat would have taken it over the top but this chicken was delicious. No notes.

    I was mostly interested because apparently Oprah Winfrey called it the "best Mac and Cheese in the…read morenation". Mine tasted closer to Mac and Egg than it did cheese. Very eggy texture and not much cheese taste. Everything else was nothing to write home about. The fried chicken was good but only like a step above Safeway's fried chicken. I don't even know what to say about the fries and cornbread. Water was like $3. Located in a food court and kinda pricey. Even the parking wasn't free despite having tons of open spots.

While I know many come for the food, I personally make the 25-minute drive for one thing: the Sweet Potato Cheesecake. Or at least, I used to. Lately, it seems like something has changed in the process. The cheesecake hasn't been setting properly, and the cream cheese isn't fully blended into the sweet potato, leaving noticeable chunks. The flavor, once rich and decadent, has also diminished, making me question if it's still worth the trip. That said, I've heard the rest of the food is still solid, so if you're craving Southern comfort food, it may still be worth checking out.

    Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q…read more Fox Bros. has that hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint feel, but with plenty of space to hang out. There's a bar along with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the overall atmosphere is casual and laid-back. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and gave us some great recommendations, which definitely added to the experience. We went with the three-meat sampler and chose the brisket, ribs, and jalapeño cheddar sausage, with tots and the Fox-a-Roni for our sides. The Fox-a-Roni--a combination of their Brunswick stew and mac & cheese--was absolutely delicious and easily one of the most memorable sides I've had at a BBQ restaurant. The brisket was honestly some of the best brisket I've ever had. It was tender, flavorful, and easily my favorite of the three meats. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was also really good, and while the ribs tasted great, ours were pretty small and didn't have a ton of meat on them. My only real complaint was the portioning of the sampler. We were told that as you choose a larger variety of meats, you essentially receive smaller portions of each. I understand the idea of a sampler, but we literally received one slice of brisket and two-three fairly small ribs, so the portion-to-variety concept didn't make a ton of sense to me. I would've preferred slightly more substantial portions, especially considering how good the brisket was! I also ordered a cocktail, but unfortunately it wasn't really for me. It came across very sweet and mostly juice, although I think that may have been more about the particular drink I chose than the bar itself. Overall, the food absolutely delivered. Between the incredible brisket, Fox-a-Roni, friendly service, and laid-back BBQ atmosphere, Fox Bros. was definitely worth the stop. I'd happily come back--I'd just skip the 3 meat sampler next time and order more of that brisket!

Our experience at Virgil's Gullah Kitchen was completely unacceptable from beginning to end. Our waiter disappeared for over 15 minutes after taking our credit card to the register. When he finally returned, he claimed that he had somehow lost our credit card between our table and the register. Let that sink in -- our credit card was in the restaurant's possession, and somehow it disappeared while being handled by our server. To make matters even worse, our check was incorrect, adding another layer of frustration to an already completely unacceptable situation. And then, instead of taking responsibility and resolving the situation appropriately, the waiter had the audacity to give us his personal phone number and tell us to call him to see if he found our credit card. Absolutely not. That is not an appropriate way to handle a customer's financial information or a potentially lost credit card. At that point, the issue was no longer simply poor service, it became a matter of trust, accountability, and basic professionalism. I expect a restaurant to provide good food and service, but above all, I expect my personal property and financial information to be handled responsibly. This experience left me extremely uncomfortable and disappointed. Virgil's Gullah Kitchen needs to seriously address how situations like this are handled and, more importantly, how customer credit cards are being handled by staff! One star is honestly generous. I would not recommend this establishment based on this experience.

I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take. Overall: 4/5 great setting, just comes at a premium.

I called shortly afterward and was informed that an employee had found it and that it was being held at the restaurant. When I arrived about 10 minutes later to retrieve it, I was told that the phone was no longer there and had somehow gone missing. What made this situation even worse was the way the manager handled it. Instead of showing concern, taking responsibility, or making a genuine effort to help resolve the issue, he was dismissive, spoke to me in an unprofessional manner in front of other customers, and ultimately walked away while I was still trying to discuss what had happened. I understand that mistakes can happen, but losing an item that had already been found and acknowledged by staff is a serious issue. More importantly, the lack of accountability, empathy, and professionalism shown by management was unacceptable. No customer should be treated with disrespect, especially when trying to recover a valuable personal item. I hope the company reviews its lost-and-found procedures and provides better customer service training to its management team. My experience left me feeling frustrated, embarrassed, and completely unsupported.
