    Very fast service and was seated quickly. Cute little spot with great selections of breakfast food. The service was very nice

    Mini Breakfast Bowl Bacon, Egg* and Cheese| Chorizo
    Laz S.

    We decided to come to this location with two of our friends. I ordered the Bacon, Egg* and Cheese | Chorizo which was just alright. The mango mimosa was also just alright. I ordered some regular Orange Juice which wasn't even "freshly" made, that just came from one of O.J cartons that you find in most supermarkets. The place is always super busy and crowded. The service wasn't bad. I definitely wasn't impressed with this place. Will I come back? Probably not.

    piedmont omlette

    Brunch was busy the day of our visit but we only had to wait about five minutes outside until a table was readied. Tables were a little tight together. Ours was right next to a pillar and a wire rack of stuff behind me. There was a good mix of brunch choices from omelettes, chicken & waffles, scrambles, grits and more. We ended up trying the following: Best I Ever Had which was french toast but not the best we've eaten. Piedmont Omlette was filled with chicken it sausage. bacon, cheese and onions. It did seem like the omelette was a bit small versus the biscuit and bowl of grits. Overall food was as expected but we did like the creaminess and taste of their grits. Not sure I recall seeing a separate credit card processing charge posted anywhere or informed by our server but they added an extra 3.5% to our bill when we used it. Really needs to be clearly highlighted so it's not a surprise when asked to pay the bill after they've run the credit card. Service overall was good but next time in Atlanta we'll try another brunch spot.

    We came to The Flying Biscuit Cafe this morning for breakfast. Lots of options, you come in with an appetite. My Chicken and waffles were okay. The waffles were a little over cooked, however the chicken was crispy and buttery. I coated with syrup all over the plate. The vibe was fun in the restaurant, staff was helpful and friendly, the table clothes were colorful and quirky. Southern breakfast food served all day. All payments is accepted, plenty of parking available. Pets are welcomed outside.

    Biscuit Eggs and Gravy
    Jay S.

    Quite overdue, but I wanted to take a moment to recognize this spot that brought me good memories during my times in Atlanta. Even though the wait was super long, space was limited and crowded, and not all food was consistently good, I still enjoyed my experience there and consider this place a must-go for those that visit Atlanta, at least for the experience. In terms of food quality, the fried green tomatoes were pretty standard in taste but were soggy in texture, and dipping them in the cashew-jalapeño relish, tangy goat cheese, or the buttermilk ranch offered three different types of flavors. The chicken and waffles were also pretty standard in flavor, with the chicken not too dry. The non-spicy version was still a bit soggy in texture just like some of the other dishes. The shrimp and grits relied completely on the tomato sauce for flavor because the grits themselves were underseasoned, which was interesting because all the side grits we had, the grits tasted just fine. The gravy tasted pretty good, and I remembered at some point we ordered a gravy dish that had tomatoes under the gravy, but couldn't quite remember the name of the dish anymore. The sausage patties and the scrambled eggs in the Flying Biscuit Breakfast dish were also dry, unfortunately, but had good enough flavor. Depending on the times, wait times can be long, especially at this location, which seemed to be the most popular one. Another cool thing about this establishment was the rainbow crosswalks that was next to it. It allowed me to remember where I was right away when I came here for the second time.

    Biscuit scrambled eggs and gravy
    Sydney K.

    Solid breakfast spot. My favorite place for grits -super creamy. I had the open face biscuit with scrambled eggs, and gravy, with a side of the creamy grits. Their gravy doesn't have the traditional pork sausage, it's chicken, which I wasn't a huge fan of, but it was still very good. This location has a unique and cute layout, with winding windows throughout the place, making tables quite intimate. It was a lovely solo breakfast in the city. Plus the service was amazing, from the server (I think her name was Keke) to the cook that brought me my food. All around nice experience!

    Nancy E.

    Want to have southern comfort food, this is your place! Their grits are creamy and cheesy but the shrimp on the grits is a bit small and the tomato sauce tastes like it's from a can. Waffles was fluffy and biscuits were good but could be a little flakier. The decor is cozy and feels like you're at someone's house .Our server was so hospitable and gave such a detailed walk through the menu. Definitely a place to visit!

    Pretty good brunch place in Atlanta and lives up to the hype! My friend and I came around 11am for brunch on Sunday, and there was a pretty long line. We waited around 25 minutes and we were only in the middle of the line, but luckily they had a space open up for a party of two so we were able to get in a little earlier. Service is super quick, with the waiter attending to you as soon as you arrive. I got the egg-stravaganza, and it was good! I loved the variety I was able to try, and the biscuits and grits were especially delicious. I would definitely come again to try more of their menu items!

    First time here . Was recommended to try this place out . The food was delicious. The biscuit was one of the best I've ever had . It was fluffy and soft . The grits were amazing . The Arnold Palmer was delicious. Our waitress Iliana was so sweet , very warm welcoming and consistent with service . She was handling the whole restaurant smoothly . I definitely recommend this place

    Very busy corner location with limited parking near by. Place was packed, good sign for breakfast joint. Friendly staff! Good quality to cost ratio. Portions were average. Good coffee, not burnt. Overall great downtown local neighborhood breakfast place to try. Be prepared to wait on weekends... nice selection of adult brunch beverages.

    Larry T G.

    The star of the dish was the gravy. The gravy was well seasoned and the consistency was spot on. The chicken, although big pieces was bland and dry. The waffle was good but the chicken could have been better. The collard greens were amazing seasoned well and definitely pair it with the grits. It's an unique combination. I enjoyed my time and would come back.

    Breakfast burrito (Southwest)
    Dawn N.

    The food was fantastic! It was my first time trying the fried green tomatoes and they were incredible. The French toast hit the sweet spot, just the right amount of sweetness from the sauces The breakfast burrito lived up to my expectations. I visited on Juneteenth, so the restaurant was understandably busy. With only one server covering the entire room, we waited about 30minutes to place our order and occasionally needed to flag down other staff for to‑go boxes and the check (which we were redirected to wait for our waitress after already waiting). Our server was clearly doing her best under pressure, and a bit of extra help from the rest of the team would have made the experience smoother. Overall, I'd come back for the food alone and hope on future visits the staff gets a little more support during holiday rushes.

    CRISPY BUTTERMILK CHICKEN TENDERS and ONE FLUFFY BUTTERMILK PANCAKE
    Leyang Z.

    3.5 stars would be most accurate. Tried this restaurant in a warm winter noon. I ordered the chicken tenders, a side of grits and a biscuit, and my friend, who was not hungry because she had a crepe at Green Market just before, got a side of pancake. The Grilled Mac and cheese which came with the chicken entrée was amazing and had tons of cheese! The grits were creamy, dense and had a balanced flavor. I think it is better than Mary Mac's. However, the chicken tenders were very bland and too chewy. Worse, the outside was not crispy. It seemed like they were not fried by order. Other than food, the service was okay, the dining area was too smaller--the restaurant was crowded with tables and people.

    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.

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.

Questions about cross contamination with allergens were met with a blank stare and shoulder shrug. The DJ was great but the music was way too loud and made it hard to hear each other. 20% auto grat is included for all checks over $100 according to the menu, but it should say all parties or something similar as it's determined by what the table spends. This was even more annoying considering the lackluster service we received. He did remove the automatic gratuity from my check, but it was only $10 due to a special so I'm sure that was only accommodated since the tip was $2.

Right in the heart of Buckhead with a beautiful view great energy, well-dressed crowd, and a strong place for a work lunch or client meeting. Service was solid, no complaints there. 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.
