    Southwest Chicken Salad
    Glenda B.

    It's hard to figure out what you want to eat sometimes but how can you go wrong with a salad? I had the Southwest Adobe Chicken Salad. It was so good and very fresh. The lettuce was not brown, it was crisp. The grilled chicken was well seasoned and plentiful. The salad also includes black beans, pico de gallo, corn salsa, jack cheese, guacamole, and tortilla strips. I was surprised they included guacamole because chains usually charge to add it on to an entree. I have to say that they are not stingy with the Chipotle Ranch salad dressing and salsa. Do yourself a favor and get Queso. It's not too thick and not too loose. It's just right. Freshly made chips and salsa are included with all meals. They are very addictive.

    This review is for the Howlin' Willy's at the same location... I found Howlin Willy's when I was leaving East Point today and it was great. I believe it is an extension of Willy's Mexican Restaurant. Ordering process was simple because the menu was short and to the point. The food was great. The chicken was tender, the mac n cheese had nice flavor to it, and the coleslaw was tasty. I firmly believe that because the menu was limited, they are able to master the cooking and preparation of all their items. The location itself is ideal and it seems to be big with the local workforce (Delta employees, bank execs, students, etc). I highly recommend trying this place when you come to East Point.

    Love this Willy's located off of Virginia Ave next to Marcos pizza. The staff is EXCELLENT. Very attentive, personable, and accomodating. I love just about everything I've had here as well. They are open during the pandemic and follow all social distance guidelines. They are now open for dine in which is great. I come here whenever I want a yummy salad or burritto. My go to on the fly.

    Talk about superb customer service. This place has it! Upon walking in the gentleman at the first station greeted us with a smile. He was very pleasant and inviting and really set the tone for the experience. Upon going through the order process everyone I encountered had amazing service as well. The location is very clean and trendy. Perfect place for a quick bite, friend date, truly any reason. There is ample seating as well as outdoor seating for those nice days The food was absolutely AMAZING. I ordered the veggie burrito and it was truly a great option. So full of fresh veggies and authentic flavors. Omg! It was an awesome foodtastic experience. I strongly suggest paying this place a visit if you love Mexican food. Also, the lemonades are amazing. Service- 10/10 Food- 10/10 Environment- 10/10

    I work at the airport on the weekend and this location is probably about a 7 min drive away. They are closed on Saturday and Sunday. Last Friday I wanted some Willie's about 7pm and since they are also the closest location to my house, I was glad to see the have standard hours Monday - Friday. 10ish - 9pm I parked on the Virginia Ave side of the parking lot across from Waffle House, but once I got inside I saw there is also a parking lot on the back side of the restaurant. I got there right about 7 and it was a packed house. Most people were wearing Delta or FedEx uniforms, so I'm sure this place could have a healthy weekend business just feeding airport employees I went with a steak/chicken quesadilla and it was perfectly prepared and browned on the grill. The counter lady had no issue with giving me my requested toppings in the plastic to-go condiment cups instead of putting it directly on the quesadilla. Although the line was practically out the door, the staff was friendly and all smiles. Outside patio The only thing that prevented them from earning a 5 star review, when I arrived there was a young lady sweeping up the dining room floor. When I left, she was braiding a guys hair in the dining room. I'd saw him when I was in line putting meat on the grill, so he worked there also. When they saw me looking at them, he said, one of my braids came loose and she's just braiding it back down for me. Sir...that needs to be done in the back or outside, not in the dining room

    What a fantastic experience!…read more Although I've ordered from Which Wich in the past, this was actually my first time inside of the restaurant and what an experience it was. My intern/friend and I decided to grab a quick lunch while preparing for an experience nearby and I'm so glad that we did. Which Wich is a sandwich shop that has a pretty interesting ordering setup. With a bright and clear menu that welcomes you as you enter the shop, you begin with choosing your sandwich size. From there, guests can grab a marker and begin to craft their ideal sandwich based on the wide variety showcased on the menu. You can choose between various toppings like veggies, spreads, different cheeses, you name it. With all of the listeria outbreaks happening around the US, I was definitely apprehensive, so I went in with that in mind. I opted for an Italian sub with extra hot peppers, spicy mustard, light mayo, etc etc. All of the things I shouldn't have, but was craving. I haven't had a sandwich in monthssss and needed it to be cooked at certain temperature. I was incredibly nervous about that but the sweet woman (I hate that I don't remember her name and it wasn't on my receipt! :-( ) behind the counter assured me that she understood my needs and wow, did she! She toasted the meat for my sandwich first and then put it on my sandwich and toasted it again to be sure that the temperature was correct. What an angel. My sandwich was perfect! Omg. I wish I would have gotten a bigger one how I scarfed it down, lol. It was incredibly flavorful, the spicy peppers, pickles and jalapenos really took it to another level. Beyond the awesome service and sandwich, the restaurant itself was clean, spacious and full of tables if guests wanted to sit and enjoy their meals. I'll be dreaming about that sandwich for a long time, can't wait to go back and have another.

    Stopped in at Which Wich & it has been a while. The last time I ate there was about a year ago in…read morethe airport. I stopped in after church & grabbed a few sandwiches. The menu is to the right on the wall as soon as you walk in the door. They have brown paper bags numbered for the type of meat/sandwich you want. I was a little lost & the gentleman behind the counter was helpful. A regular sandwich with chips & drink came to $11. You also have the option of a bowl, tortilla wrap, or lettuce wrap for $2 more. Not bad. You pick your bread (white/wheat) sauces, veggies etc. then write your name at the bottom of the bag & the sandwich artist will call them when your food is ready. This location is pretty spacious with indoor & outdoor seating. It was also clean. The reg sandwiches were a pretty good size little over a 6 inch. They have lots of sandwiches to choose from, so I'll be back to try more.

I pulled over and found Fish Bowl Poke and saw great reviews so I figured I'd give it a shot and not have high expectations. Fish Bowl definitely proved me wrong. They make it really easy to order/customize what you want. There's a table with sheets and a pen, and you just mark off which fish, toppings, and sauce you want then bring it to the cashier and pay. Service is so quick and portions are quite generous. Normally I can easily finish a poke bowl in one sitting, but I struggled to finish mine because I was so full. The quality is amazing- good portion fish, a good mix of toppings, perfect amount of sauce, and a good scoop size of rice.

The space is charming and simple with a few cool art pieces, and the staff has great energy. It's a solid option anytime (except weekends when they're closed). One thing to note: there's additional parking in the back if you don't initially see any in the front!

The ambience has chill vibe with a comfortable and relaxing place to hang with your friends, loved ones or meeting a new friend. The old brick decor makes it feel historical. 4 Stars Server - Tu. A delightful young man with a wonderful smile who answered our questions on the different dishes. He was professional and pleasant. 3 Stars to 4 Stars: Though the food options were limited to the large Thai cuisine, the cooks did a decent job on the items we ordered. All the plates had plentiful amount of food. 3 Stars: Tofu Pad Zu - spicy Hot: the wide rice noodles soaked up the sweeten soy sauce with a hint of tamarin. However, the fresh vegetables and tofu did not. It tasted bland.It could be better with a slice of lime for acidity or add and or have additional seasoning. With that said, the vegetables were fresh, steamed hot, and crunchy. The tofu was slightly firm. 3.75 Stars Chicken Pad Thai - spicy Hot. Plentiful amount of the thin rice noodles, which was covered in the Pad Thai sauce. The chicken was chewy and was thinly sliced. Some of the chicken was tender, while others were dry. Hit and miss. The Pad Thai sauce was slightly missing something. The tamarind paste brought the sourness. However I think it was the lack of fish sauce and sugar. With that said, the dish was still good. Just not great for our personal taste. 4 Stars Squid Garlic Stir Fry - spicy Mild The squid were tender, chewy and was a good choice to hold the garlic sauce. Cooking squid is a delicate matter. 1 minute more on the cooking can make the texture of the squid chewy and rubbery. The fresh veggies were al dente and the jasmine rice was cooked perfectly. However, we thought the sauce was lacking in the garlic flavor. We thought it would be more garlicky. Even though there are Pros and Cons on the dishes, each plate was "cleaned" off. Only thing that wasn't eaten was the lime rind. Hahaha. Special Note: Event Manager - Amanda Amanda brought us up to tour The Loft and explained how they work their events. After listening to her, it definitely made us want to use this venue for a future event. She was delightful to talk to and was so personable. She connected with us and us with her, so much so that we just wanted to hang out and visit with her a bit longer.

The store was originally going to be a salata but guess something happened to where they re-named it however same ingredients and everything else except they didnt have the big menu board up. It was just a small one on the glass which was easy to miss. When I asked the girl where the menu was she rolled her eyes towards it and responded "right there." I informed her about a promo I had for a bogo and showed it to her. She proceeds to make the salad and the wrap for me. They limit the amount of toppings you can get which is annoying but whatever. When she goes to transfer the ingredients to the wrap she pulls out pizza like pans to put the wrap on. She went through 3 before I asked her if she had one that was actually clean. There was food caked on the first 3 she pulled out but they were all on the line as if they'd been washed and sanitized. She tried to flick off food from one before I told her no and requested a new wrap that hadn't touched a dirty dish. Another customer came around that time who ordered online and was inquiring about her drink because online wouldn't let her submit her order without adding it. The girl advises they dont have drinks and points to broken and empty drink dispensers sitting on the counter. She then rings me up and I notice she charged for protein on the wrap after I specifically asked does the wrap include protein and she advised yes earlier. I ask about it and she just gets an attitude and mumbles "no I didn't say that this is your price you gotta show me your coupon to redeem the free wrap." The coupon I had already showed her. I left and told them to keep it. This place is fairly new to my understanding with terrible service, broken equipment and unsanitary practices. Absolutely will not return.
