The 14 Best Soul Food Restaurants In Atlanta - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Near the airport, this is a great first stop when you touch down in Hartsfield and are in need of a delicious, hearty meal. Even if you’re not flying anywhere, you should keep Lickety Split on your rotation because you won’t find anyone in the wider metro doing Southern food as well. The crunchy, savory fried chicken and a well-seasoned burger are both contenders for best in town. Savory greens, and delicious creamy coleslaw round out the menu. The sweet peach cobbler shouldn't be skipped either. It’s made with a sugary, bready crust, and served with a dollop of vanilla ice cream." - demarco williams, jacinta howard
