The Best J.R. Crickets Atlanta Locations Ranked In Order - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"We wouldn’t classify any of the J.R. Crickets locations as flashy establishments, and the College Park location is certainly no exception. Well, aside from the massive throne at the entrance begging you to take a seat for a quick social media flex. In addition to a weekday biker night featuring a DJ and drink specials, it has two other major pluses going for it—an outdoor patio and waffles. When the brunch bunch gets tired of the wait at the popular breakfast spots that line the block further down Main Street, throw a curveball and bring them here for chicken and or shrimp waffles." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard

When you want wings and al fresco dining, hit J.R. Crickets in CP - Review - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"We wouldn’t classify any of the J.R. Crickets locations as flashy establishments, and the College Park location is certainly no exception. Well, aside from the massive throne at the entrance begging you to take a seat for a quick social media flex. In addition to a weekday biker night featuring a DJ and drink specials, it has three other major pluses going for it—an outdoor patio, waffles, and their always dependable wings. When the brunch bunch gets tired of the wait at the popular breakfast spots that line the block further down Main Street, throw a curveball and bring them here for chicken, fried shrimp, and waffles. Food Rundown Waffles These thick waffles are not going to win any awards, but they’re decent enough if you’re not in the mood to wait for the better alternatives at one of the brunch spots down the way. PlayMute video credit: Tabia Lisenbee-Parker Wings With nearly 20 different sauces and your choice of how you want them fried, these wings are reliable. We especially like their citrusty lemon pepper wet and tangy-sweet BBQ. Fries When you order wings, they come with your choice of blue cheese or ranch dip and your choice of celery or these run-of-the-mill fries. Obviously get the fries since they work best to sop up your dip and your wing sauce." - Jacinta Howard

I had the lemon and pepper wet wings. They were buffalo hot with lemon and pepper. These wings were so good. But I took a star off cause they were the smallest wings I ever seen. They were so good but I could have ordered a 20 pc. I would definitely go there again. It came out in like 5-10 minutes which was great 👍

I'm actually speechless and struggling to write this review. We placed a phone order with the expectation that the food would be done when we arrived. WRONG! We had to reorder and wait once we arrived, the bartender was friendly though. The wait was approximately 20 minutes. This is where is took a turn...these are micro-mini wings! I've never had wings this tiny. I am NOT exaggerating. I ordered 10 wings with fries, there was another order of wings and clam strips w/fries, one with wings and chicken fingers, and wings, fries and shrimp. When we received our food, surprise...micro-mini wings (if they could be called wings). Once we got back to the spot, we re-evaluated our food. It was even worse than we thought. Lil wings and COLD fries. I was so ready to dominate my food. I'm actually saddened at the quality and size. I WILL NEVER RETURN. We completely understand the business waiting to place/cook food when we arrive since they didn't take payments over the phone and the bartenders would have been responsible for the cost had we not come. Give us a warning.

We ordered Togo. Chicken and waffles, cheese fries and fried mushrooms. We picked up our order only to find out that we were charged an additional $10 apparently for a forced “gratuity”. The guy at the bar was nice and got our food together- definitely not worth $10 gratuity for putting some boxes in a bag. The cheese fries were good. That was it. Their “almost famous” chicken and waffles will NEVER be famous. Probably the worst chicken and waffles any of us had tried. The chicken was thin it crunched like a potato chip. The waffle was soggy and the syrup tastes like some $1.00 great value brand and do not get me started on their liquid butter…nope. Never again. I wanted to love it so bad! It was such a disappointment. Thank god we had fries to fill us up. Waste of $60.

This was hands down the worst place I’ve ever been to. My order arrived incomplete, and when I politely asked another server for the missing items, she told me to ask my server—completely unhelpful and honestly rude. I couldn’t believe the level of customer service here. The staff acted like they were doing me a favor by even acknowledging me. To make matters worse, the food that did arrive wasn’t even what I ordered. No apologies, no effort to correct it. When I asked for the bill, my server just told me the total verbally—no receipt, no breakdown, nothing. For the record, in many places (including most U.S. states), restaurants are legally required to provide an itemized bill upon request. This felt shady and unprofessional. Between the disorganized service, rude staff, and incorrect food, this place was a total disaster. Save yourself the trouble and go literally anywhere else.

I placed an order through Grubhub and when I say I am disappointed and will never order from here again I mean it! I ordered a single 10pc with fries. I received all drums and a couple of broken bones as if they gave it to a dog then recooked it. I also received overcooked soggy French fries! If I were you I would head over to another location where your food might come out better. The second photo is after I threw out my fries and looked around my wings to discover the weird looking bones of the chicken. Who gives a customer food like this??

I’ve eaten here hand full of times. My top favorite thing I enjoy here is the chicken tenders & fries combo. I have eaten their fish however it’s not seasoned enough so I’ll rather stick to the chicken side of things in here. Their bartenders vary & don’t always provide customer service. I did notice they tax harshly on their food + gratuity. I would recommend stopping here during happy hr or a lunch special.

Wings are too small for the price. I went to another Crickets received the same amount of wings at pretty much the same price but much larger wings. The server was mediocre at best. The table was dirty and sticky. The waitress focused on the regulars and those who were at the bar. It took about 25 mins for food to come out and it was not hot. SMH. The lights were flickering on and off. Lol. I will never be back to this location. I remember when crickets used to be a nice place to get wings.

We ate there a few nights ago. The bar tender told us to sit anywhere. When our waitress finally came she didn't introduce herself. We ordered our food which took over 30 min to come out and it wasn't busy in the restaurant at all. As I was eating my food there was a bone in my fish wrap, I ate a second bite and discovered another one so I was only able to eat my fries. I would've ordered something else but the waitress didn't come check on us. We had to flag down another employee to get some help. Once we told them the issue the waitress didn't want to discount/refund us so we asked for her boss. The bartender and the waitress came to meet us. They insisted the fish had no bones yet I still had the original bone that I found wrapped in a paper towel. I've gotten food to go here and it was good however this experience was awful. I work in customer service and how we were spoken to and how the situation was handled was not professional at all.

I have mixed reviews. Walked in and the tables were disgusting. One of the workers was sitting eating , she did greet us but we had to ask for her to clean the table. They were not that busy as the Georgia Bulldog game was on but there was no reason for the tables not be wiped ready for the next customer. The light fixture had dust at the table we were sitting causing us to have to leave the table to sit at the bar. On a positive note good was amazing but the cleanliness of the bar and the bathrooms need work. Workers need to work and stop chilling with regulars. Because there was definitely work to do.

Our waitress/bartender was pleasant. No problems there. Disappointed in the wings, they were quite small. My fries were also unsalted. The DJ made it a fun atmosphere. A mix of old school r&b & today's line dances. Overall i was excited to finally try the infamous j.r. crickets only to be left a bit underwhelmed. Price was fair given the quality of the food. Perhaps other locations are a bit better.

The JR Crickets Cascade location was slammed, so I tried this one. There were almost no customers in the restaurant. They were blasting the Weather report full blast, surround sound inside and out. There were 5 or 6 employees just loitering around complaining and gossiping. I got my order ready and I sat there and sat there and sat there, completely ignored. After what felt like an eternity with zero attention, I just left. These employees are absolute scum. I will briefly defend other criticisms here on Yelp. Quality gourmet wings are small. Crappy overfed bloated chicken wings are low quality. In a wing, you want more skin surface area relative to the meat. This is the only way they get crispy. Dear Mr. Cricket, please fire the entire staff at this location.

This was unacceptable. This was the smallest wing I have ever seen, they should really be ashamed of themselves. Ride a mile down the street to Chairs Upstairs!

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't even get a chance to order. I walked up to the bar, advised the girl ----- I had never eaten here and began looking at the menu. Three people walked up to the bar and placed their order. Then she looks at me to ask what I wanted. Oh no ma'am. I was so mad I lost my taste for wings. I will never solicit this business again. So while I'm standing up here typing another person walks up and places an order. WOW!!!!!!!!!!! That's it! I'm done. Sad but true!!! I love supporting businesses especially when there is only a handful of people in there at 7:08pm on Saturday night. SMH. But this young lady is bad for business. You should be as nice as possible to ALL patrons. You never know who is who nor how much money they may be willing to spend. I just drove on over to Chik-Fil-A where I received exceptional customer service. It doesn't look like Atlanta learned anything from KL's pop up visits last year.

My first time at this location. Unstaffed which I understood. I get my food and the ribs were tough. Onion rings overly cooked and my drink was aight. Customer service started rocky but in the end they did good. ‍ I wouldn't recommend this location because the other locations are great.

Ooooo child where do I start!!! The bar tender for the day was lost as hell!!! Bad attitude and had horrible customer service skills.

But I don't understand how people take jobs to deal With the public and have the worst attitude!!!! She lucky I'm redeemed

Listen. This is not the J.R. I remember. Now, to be fair I've never visited this one. However, I have fond memories of most all the other ones. The woman taking our order must have been tired or ... I can't find another excuse to give her for her failure of listening. My husband placed our order. She then asked him did he want to order. So, he reiterated himself. She THEN asked "So, do you want to order?" again. This loop in the Matrix happened three times. We almost left. And honestly should have. We received our just hatched baby chicken wings. I mean they must have been little chicks because we've never seen chicken wings so small before. Again not representing the J.R. I fondly remember. I'm not sure if it's just this location but I've been turned off by the franchise/chain because of this visit. They've made it to the banned list. Have to come back home at least two more times and not visit in order to erase this just one visit. If you're looking for wings I truly suggest trying your hand anywhere else but here.

I'm a fan of JR Crickets so have this one a try. The place was just about empty when we arrived so no issues getting served. Had some wings and fries. Wings were hot and crispy. No complaints. Waitresses are very cool and attentive. Very nice atmosphere, bar, TVs to watch the game. It's a nice place to have an event, etc.

The food was TRASH. I didn't even know you could mess up wings like this. I wish I would've tasted them before I left the establishment because they were NOT done but even the fries were nasty‍ and let's not get started on the DRY, DUSTY ambiance. The service was so-so. To be clear I don't even take time to do any reviews but I had to speak on it!

I ordered from this place via Uber Eats. I really didn't know where it was located exactly until after the fact. Its located in downtown College Park on Main Street. The location has never done well with other restaurants so hopefully this one will prosper. Now getting to the food. I ordered a cheeseteak and added 3 ribs because I just wanted to try it. I widh Atlanta restaurants would stop calling their versions of this sandwich Philly Cheesesteak. Its nothing near that. First of all its incredibly small. The meat although kind of tasty was lacking in portion size. The bread was also soft. As a native of Philadelphia we don't do soft bread. I asked for mayonnaise and ketchup on my sandwich and I received ketchup packets and a dry sandwich. Its a no go. The ribs however were much better. These were some big meaty ribs. I was quite surprised. They would be the bomb if the sauce was tweaked a littke and not so generic tasting. The packing was good. And I did appeciate then sending napkins, forks etc

Review is for takeout only! I ordered wings and fries twice. The wings were seasoned and sauced very well. The fries could've been more crispy. There's plenty of parking, everytime I have gone or drove by the parking lot is pretty empty.

I love to support my local businesses but these little drumsticks are ridiculous for $15. Didn't receive my ranch dressing that I paid extra for. I have been to several other JR CRICKETS And the drums are never this small. Upon calling I was told they have been small since the 80's. Not true. If this is the service that you give you customers you need to do better. Better off spending you money down the street and better restaurants.

I decided to go visit this spot because I was craving some really good hot wings. I called the order in and by the time I went to the restaurant it was ready. Their was literary no one was in the restaurant then myself and the server. Because of Covid-19, the once booming and buzzing lunch hour had literally no one in the place. The price of the wings was about 16 and change. I did notice the inflation of the wings, my assumption is because of Covid-19. I got the 10 piece wing and fries. It was amazing and good, I was working when I got it and all I hear my co-workers say how good my food smelled. I even took a photo and my greediness got the best of me. I bit into the drum after taking the photo forgetting I shouldn't have done that. Smh. I enjoyed my food and will be back.

COVID-19 has turned things upside down. We haven't been eating out but tonight we decided to give our once favorable wing spot a try. WRONG! This place is horrible! Staff very unprofessional!!! We're required to wear a mask but the staff isn't???? We were forced to give a $8.00 tip for zero service. Gratuity is supposed to be charged on parties of 4 or more, it was the 2 of us??!!!! I'm not stingy, I'm a tipper, but help me understand? We didn't get offered drinks while we waited and we had to send the food back twice! This establishment has definitely gone down. We will not be returning to this establishment ever! #bringsincereback

Dont come here! We came here for Game 1 Eastern Conference finals and it was pleasant at first. We got there early (before tip off), got good seating, and was surrounded by a decent crowd of hawks fans. We ordered the appetizer deluxe (2 wings, 2 ribs, 2 tenders) They came out at the end of the first quarter. The wings were the size of a quarter but cool no issue, we had plans on staying the entire game and ordering more food. We were well into the 3rd quarter with a drink menu and no refill on the water we were given when we literally first sat down. As soon as the appetizer came out we placed an order for a caesar salad, your typical "basic b*tch of salads", it came out at the beginning of the 4th quarter..... When the waitress brought the salad, it had white onions on it, not what i asked for and a side of some other dressing. She proceeds to say they are out of caesar, so i make it politely clear that I wouldn't have ordered the salad at all if i was notified when ordering or within the time of wait. She leaves the salad and walks off....Didnt even ask if I would like to order anything else. A complete waste of a black owned business in the heart of college park, terrible customer service, and management. I literally cant even leave a tip. For what? Bringing us water and small wings? Yeah Fuck Off!

Sha got an F+ in bartending etiquette. I live in the area and have been there plenty of times and enjoyed the happy hour and the prices. For some odd reason this happy hour the tab was almost $100. The smell in there was very bad I really wanted to turn around and leave. The bar and menus felt sticky and the wings had a taste of old dirty grease. Sha smiled once at my Client, he noticed her LACK of customer service towards me his words "she smiled at me but didn't smile at you" the tip was added to the tab probably why she didn't. I don't just say hey let's go to jr crickets on Main Street I say hey let's get cheap drinks at jr crickets. Too many restaurants and options on Main Street. I see why we we're the ONLY people in there. Maybe losing 1 customer will not be a problem But this review should warn others. Sha has to do better never know who you encounter.

What a dive. What kind of place makes its patrons wait for 35 minutes before bringing their drinks , an hour and fifty minutes before bringing only 2 of the 12 people that ordered food?!!!! This DJ must think that everyone present won't need their sense of hearing after tonight.and it's a Saturday night. We could've went anywhere, but we chose to give this place our time and maybe our money. The GD food still isn't here yet, now 2 HOURS after we sat down!!!

If you want some delicious wings then JR cricket is your place. I was seated immediately and my order was take. Pretty quickly. I ordered lemon pepper wings all flats and was in chicken heaven. It took a while for the wings to come, but I just dipped on my beverage and watched the game until my wings and fries came out. There were covid protocols in place so I felt pretty comfortable with dining in, but they also have a dining out option.

I ordered take out from here because I have had their wings and they were great - I should have stuck with the wings. Placing the order online was very pleasant and she repeated my order to me at least twice so it was clear- amazing! I ordered the shrimp platter(grilled) and the philly cheese steak with crispy fries. I get the food and couldn't believe my shrimp platter looked so horrible. The smallest shrimp you have ever seen and not that many for $11.99. I have had better! The fries were soggy and the philly cheese steaks bun was not toasted on the inside like it is supposed to be the crispy fries were better so I left the soggy ones alone. The total bill was $28!! Definitely not worth it. If I eat from there again, I will stick to the wings.

This place tho... went in to get some togo on a Saturday. Place was empty(C-19 I guess). Got 20 wings. They charged me 18% gratuity on a to go order !! Who does that. If business is that slow when you have to charge the community like that, maybe you should consider curbing back ur hrs. Or maybe shutting down... cause y'all won't be open much longer gouging the community. Won't be back.. ps.. don't u go either.

Great for WINGS and FOOTBALL!!! This is a new location. It's probably been here a couple of months. It has a large parking lot... so plenty of parking. Once inside there's a host station and they will seat you. I opted for the bar area since I was meeting some friends and watching football. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted by the bartender. She was very upbeat and friendly. We order some drinks and wings and started watching the football game. It was a DJ spinning on the 1s & 2s. He played a variety of old school and new school in between commercials and during half time. The wings was good... nice and crispy. Drinks was strong and the atmosphere was popping. This will definitely be my place to hangout during away games. But I'll be back even if it's not for Football Sunday!! Great Service Food was good Atmosphere was on point

Decent place to go watch a game. Dark lit and not too big, has a slightly divey feel. The dirty bird and hot Buffalo wings had good flavor, but they were tiny. The bartender was friendly and attentive. It not a date spot or a family dinner place. I'd go back for some appetizers and to watch a game.

Nothing really memorable stood out.. It seemed like this place is on the verge of going out of business...The awning at the entrance of the resturant is faded and falling apart, which really serves as a warning to all who are about to enter...service closely resembles the condition of this awning..The establishment is darkly light and dank.. something about the environment seemed off, I couldnt put my finger on it exactly..anyways I didnt order any food..I just ordered a beer and decided to try my luck at another spot. I cant point to one thing specifically, but it just seemed off. Maybe it was just me...

It pains me to write this, but this location was so promising when it first opened. The waitresses were pleasant, fun and professional. The ambiance was exciting, and the food was decent. Flash forward to September 2019 and I am never going back. I have never experienced such a lack of professionalism and courtesy from a WAITRESS no less, in all of my life. We had the displeasure of being served by perhaps the rudest waitress I've encountered. She wasn't knowledgeable of the menu (she didn't even know what the toppings were) and she treated us with disdain from the moment we sat down. Look, we all know how difficult it is to work in hospitality, but don't come for your patrons without provocation. This young lady behaved as if she was woke up with hell in her that day, determined to take it out on someone, which happened to be myself and my family members attempting to enjoy a casual dining experience. She was rushing us to order, appeared to annoyed as she waited for us to order and never once did she stop by our table to ask if "everything was ok," which is the standard procedure for a hostess. How she survives as a waitress is beyond me, because she certainly wasn't doing a good job. What's more, the kitchen was painfully slow. We waited forever for the most basic food orders. It got so bad, that we just walked out after paying for our overpriced drinks. The floor was sticky, the atmosphere inside the bar was depressing, dark, dank and the patrons seemed annoyed with their service as well. Needless to say, I won't return to this location. Union City J.R. Crickets is awful too. What is wrong with J.R. Crickets and the caliber of people they hire?

Waitress was not friendly. Acted as though we were bothering her. Not to mention the place was pretty much empty, so I was confused about the horrible service. The drink I ordered was a crown and coke with about 3 cubes of ice. Date of service 10/1/20. Time 8pm.

After waiting 45 minutes for my food, the fries and wings were cold. After informing the waitress of the dissatisfaction of my food, she returned from talking to the manager to say "the manager says there's no way your food is cold and I'm a liar". I was still charged for my food and the manager did not come out to apologize for the food since he was the person in the kitchen cooking. I will not return back to this location.

zero stars! overpriced food, 45 mins wait for a drink in an empty bar! they must be laundering money for a drug dealer because no business could last this long w such awful food, service & hostility towards the customers. i get it is in the "hood" of atl but child please! rosco's in inglewood is a gem & this dump is barely a lump of coal... i wont even visit any other location of this franchise based my experience tonight! bathrooms were so disgusting i didnt even go & went to the gas station down the street!

Food was slow and cold. How ever Tatiana the server was very good and helpful. She tried to get the owner/cook to come out and address the issue and he refused. He even came out later and didn't even address our table.

#1 RUDE OWNER, #2 COLD FOOD, #3 OVER PRICED DRINKS! I tried it again but it was more of the same. Arrogant owner not willing to make it right when EVERYTHING was wrong! Shrimp and Fries- COLD COLD COLD! Margarita(made great by the server) but grossly overpriced for the area! The servers attitude was overall positive given the situation but felt sorry she had to work for the owner who was also the COOK. And Last time he was the bartender! I blame myself for coming back! Oh well 2nd chances sometimes FAIL! This time the ULTIMATE FAIL!

I call in order, they tell me they won't start till I get there. Ok. I get there, it take 25 mins. I drive all the way home and it wrong. Smdh. Asked for lemon Pepper, got hot wings. Got shrimp platter, no slaw. I call back up there. They say, come back. Is this meal free? No sir. Then why would I drive back 15 mins. Horrible.

If I could, I would give this restaurant a 0/5 stars!!! Me and my family went on 5/30/2021 and the experience was terrible! It was our first and LAST time at this location and probably all together. If was 4 of us, but only 3 ordered and it was all 3 separate tickets. We did expect a wait of course, but not an entire HOUR for only a JRC club sandwich, a fish wrap with a side salad and a philly cheese steak (I'll get into the cheese steak in a second). We were very patient compared to others, but when I went up there to ask about my order, instead of the staff trying to be helpful and give an explanation onto why it's coming out so late, she simply said "no you're still going to have to wait, because I gotta this order out, this order out and this other order out" but those people came after me!!!!!! Luckily, I got my order soon as she said that, but that's terrible customer service! At this location they include an automatic 15% gratuity fee and NO REFUNDS ! I have no problem tipping, but considering our experience there, I was very disappointed. Oh back to the cheese steak, they forgot the cheese LOL !!! Overall: Food quality: 2/5 it was good but couldn't tell if it was because we were hungry. Their fries are nice though when hot! Environment: 2/5 entire store is dated but music was nice to have. Customer service: 0/5 could have been wayyyyy better considering we waited an hour for what seems like simple meals. Wait time: 0000000000000000000/5 never again !!

Someone needs to claim this business because I would like to know who the manager/owner is. Honestly I didn't have no complaints about the food because it was good. My issue was the fact that they have one person working every position in the restaurant! She does to go orders, host, serve, bartender, not to mention the fact that she buss the tables! So let's go into why I gave them three stars....I saw online that a gratuity was added on a party of 4 or more when I got my bill there was a gratuity added and I was confused because I recalled what the website said but I also knew it was 2 of us! I questioned her about it and basically she brushed it off by saying that's not her tip. So at this point I'm confused because if it's not her tip then who's tip is it? not to mention THE TOP OF THE RECEIPT SAYS 5 GUESTS so in my mind I start to think about what I read online about the automatic gratuity on 4 or more. until someone can tell me that gratuity was not her tip then I will continue to question why do we have to tip twice and it's not just me, it's the other people that were there also. But I will compare my receipt to another location and see if there's an automatic gratuity on it or not. And I definitely don't have a problem with tipping but don't lie about $6 when your cash tip from us was going to be higher. Like I said, until I can get down to the bottom of tipping twice I will not be returning to this location. I will save this receipt until the ink comes off!!

So this place has not had its "true" official kickoff opening, we came on a Tuesday evening and the crowd was very small. It is very spacious and and has a lot of potential to grow. The Dirty Bird wings had a good flavor but were cooked too hard for me, along with the Honey BBQ wings. It is a nice addition to Main Street and I will come back to see to how it has developed.

I'm giving this place 3 stars because the food is delicious , taste just like the original JR Crickets downtown, I have 0 complaints on that. However , this place could use some Cleaning , the bathrooms are not in tip top shape , and very unappealing in its cleanliness. The overall place actually feels the same . My server was sweet , super sweet , great attitude. However I notice servers have this thing of not writing down orders , and forget half of the things you asked for , that was the case here. I asked for all flats , didn't come out as such , and was still charged 2.99 for flats , which is a bit absurd , I could see .99 cents . I had to wait an extra 10-12 min for my flats , which is unacceptable because my date was already done eating by the time my food came. A lot of extra little fees added to the menu . (To split your wings flavor , $1.00 ) I was also overcharged with fees on my tab , when we asked her why should I still be charged 2.99 for flats , if I had to wait and never got them in the first place , her response was "I don't have access to change anything on the tab , the owner doesn't allow us to have the number for that , we have to call , and I would have to call him " (unacceptable) I spent a total of $93.00 for 3 meals . Didn't complain because the food was actually good , but for $93 I could have went to a nice clean establishment, with better service .

This is one of the better JR Crickets (including The Tavern that use to be JR Crickets) on the Southside. It is very spacious, and there is ample parking. Went on a Friday evening around 7, and it was crowded. There was a DJ and it was being broadcast live on the radio. All old school music...a variety would have been nice! The bartender did a great job, and even put his own special touch to the drinks on the menu. I ordered wings and they came out PERFECT! Ordered 10 more wings about an hour later and they were just ok. They looked dry and way too overcooked. They werent as fresh as the first order. They must work on consistency! There is patio seating available, and I appreciated that it was more of a mature crowd than expected. I believe this spot has great potential.

Went there for dine in two nights ago. The service was horrible. Although the place was not busy our waitress took forever to bring us drinks. When we ordered a second round, the drinks never came. The women's bathroom was disgusting and over all the restaurant was dirty and smelled. Finally, we went to the bar to pay. We noticed the party next to us had to do the same. Horrible. Won't be going back.

This was my first time visiting J.R.Crickets in the Georgia area. A friend and I wanted to watch the LSU game, eat some wings, and most importantly drink some beers. He recommended J.R. Crickets because he has been numerous times and I have yet to visit one in the Atlanta area. Upon entering, I asked the host if they were viewing the LSU's game. He insured me that they were; therefore I asked if I could be seated that I can enjoy the LSU game. He proceeded to sit me behind the only tv that was showing the LSU game and in front of the tv with showing the Georgia game. I tell him, "How am I suppose to view the game from the back of the television?" His response for me was, "Well Georgia's game is on and we all are watching Georgia's game." Now I asked him before I was ever seated if they were broadcasting the LSU's game and he responded "yes." From there, I walked out of the restaurant. I have no time for foolishness. If you are going to allow a rivalry to keep you from making money then that is fine with me. I will no longer visit your establishment. I attempted to contact cooperate to inform cooperate with how I was treated. I tried several ways to contact the owner of this particlar resturant and the nubmers are not working.

This place is a damn joke. First off we ordered over the phone the lady told us 15 min, we got there 25 minutes later and the food was not ready. It wasn't packed in the restaurant at all, it was too females working the floor. I got no update on my food she took my payment and that was it. So as I'm waiting for my food, The music was not clean I had to listen to bitch, shit, pussy, niggas..play profusely on full blast, listen to what you want but be courteous to your customers and play the clean version of songs. 10 minutes go by no food, no update. 20 minutes go by no food and no update....finally 35 minutes later my food comes out. No apology. I don't mind waiting but my issue is, don't sit on the phone and tell ppl it will be ready in 15 minutes and in actuality the food took one hour to be ready. I'm guessing it was one cook because the women couldn't give anyone a solid answer which is disrespectful beyond words especially when y'all make the gratuity come out of the check...no wonder tips aren't made the service sucks. Lastly I got in the car to check out my food and I have never in my life seen wings this small and malnourished. The chicken wasn't even an adult chicken this had to be a baby chicken it was no meat on these wings. Who are y'all getting y'all chicken from? Ain't no way in hell the owner would be okay with serving wings like this after making folks wait 35 mins for it. These wings look like they only took 2 minutes to cook. The flavor was there but the quality was HORRIBLE. Y'all should be ashamed to even service some BS like that. Look at the pictures it tells it all.

I enjoyed my Valentine's Day evening at this location. Candy and Flowers were given to the ladies as they came in for the live music. The grilled chicken wings were to die for. The two servers were outstanding . I will return soon.
