Delilahs Everyday Soul

"Like most food halls, Chattahoochee Food Works can be hectic. So Delilah's Everyday Soul is where you’ll want to head when you want a comforting, sit-down meal. Expect to be greeted with old-school charm, a smile, and some easy-going banter while you wait on them to fry up your order. The chicken is juicy, seasoned through-and-through, with a crispy coating that isn’t just flour—you can actually taste the spices. The sides (you get two with the dark meat plate) are good too, like gooey mac and cheese or cornbread that's as sweet as cake." - jacinta howard

"This soul food spot at Chattahoochee Food Works comes with Oprah’s seal of approval on its mac and cheese. Owned by Philadelphia chef and cookbook author Delilah Winder, her eponymous food stall serves crispy fried chicken as platters, sandwiches topped with bread and butter pickles, po’boys with creole mayo and Merlin’s Magic seasoning, and even a chicken BLT. Plates come served with collards, cornbread, and the aforementioned mac and cheese. Make sure to also order Deliah’s fried green tomatoes and a strawberry lemonade. A second location is now open at Politan Row at Ashford Lane in Dunwoody." - Mike Jordan, Eater Staff

"Delilah's Everyday Soul in Chattahoochee Food Works is a solid stop when you’re on the Upper Westside and need a soul food fix. You can grab a seat on the wooden counter or hover around a few minutes for an easy takeout dinner. The star of the show here is the dark meat plate, featuring two pieces of snappy fried chicken with a well-seasoned crust. Pair it with the cornbread, which is soft, sweet, and practically melts on your tongue. Food Rundown photo credit: Jacinta Howard Dark Meat Plate You get two sides of your choice and two pieces of crunchy, juicy fried chicken (a leg and a thigh), which are pepped up with savory seasonings. Collard Greens The collards are seasoned well enough but are even better when you use your sweet cornbread to sop them up. Mac & Cheese The mac and cheese is good and gooey, with cheese that stretches in long, golden strands from your fork. Cornbread This cornbread is cake-like and good. Crumbs stick to your butter knife when it slices through the soft, honeyed bread. Fried Chicken BLT This spot makes great fried chicken, so the breaded, fileted chicken sandwich reflects that. The batter is golden and crispy, sandwiched between buttery, pillowy bread and topped with mildly spicy creole mayo, lettuce, and sweet pickles." - Jacinta Howard

"Delia's elevates chicken sausage to a new level of wholesomeness while retaining a soulful flare. These locally sourced organic links piled high with down-home fixin's are anything but dogs. They even offer a vegetarian option - tell 'em to "cluck off!" All-day breakfast options and sausage patty sliders round out the menu. Don't forget the cake shakes. Yep, it's just "cluckin' good." - Resource Branding
