"The fried chicken at Lickety Split Southern Kitchen & Bar is fried golden brown, juicy inside, and seasoned down to the bone. The meal includes a huge breast and two crunchy wings, all topped with a light sprinkle of parsley flakes. And the sides at this Southern spot are equally delicious, specifically the tangy, creamy coleslaw and savory greens. This is a great anytime chicken meal, but it works especially well for a lowkey lunch or no-fuss dinner when you want to watch the game at the bar." - jacinta howard

"Lickety Split’s peach cobbler tastes very fresh—like they rounded up peaches from some orchard out back. It’s sweet but not overly so, and comes with a soft, bready crust that's lightly dusted with sugar crystals. The peaches are soft but not mushy, and aren’t  overloaded with spices, so the fruit gets a chance to shine. It perfectly caps off the hearty Southern meals that this spot excels at." - juli horsford, nina reeder, jacinta howard

Coby was a gentleman, very polite and attentive. Not to mention the yams, sweet tea , and catfish was delicious. I wouldn’t recommend the green though, the taste simply wasn’t it! I also enjoyed the music they were playing.

I came here with my Dad and we both really enjoyed it! This place is a small gem that packs a big punch. You come in and order before you find your own seat. They also have a cute bar area. The staff were welcoming and pleasant. Our food was served in to-go containers which I was glad about because I didn’t finish all my food so I didn’t have to wait to have someone give me a to-go box. My Dad ordered the veggie plate he had corn, greens, black eyed peas, and sweet potatoes. I had the pork chops [fried and smothered] they were so delicious with the perfect flavor, fried green tomatoes, cabbage, and cornbread dressing. There’s NOTHING like soul food that is perfectly seasoned and not salty! We will definitely be returning. I started eating before taking my pictures 😅

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a meal featuring turkey wings, dressing, cabbage, black-eyed peas, potato salad, and fried green tomatoes, and I must say, everything was absolutely excellent! Each dish was bursting with flavor, truly capturing the essence of Southern comfort food. To top it off, the service was outstanding – attentive, friendly, and welcoming. It felt like a warm embrace as soon as I walked through the door. If you’re looking for an authentic Southern dining experience, this place is a must-visit!

I almost cried when opening the bag. . . . . Paying $3.50 per side for the serving size being sooo small. I felt like I was basically paying for a taste test for each side. Chicken tasted like the oil was old. Sides were flavorful but I’ll never pay over $50 again for this restaurant to deliver. I may try them in person, hopefully it’s different. Would not recommend the sweet potato pie.

Nice place to set outside and eat. The service could have been better, and the outside table swiped down for customers. However, the food was good and priced fair enough . However, I will probably not return unless customer service improves. The mediterranean restaurant next door had slightly higher prices but much better customer service.

We went to this place for a quick bite and we walked out with nothing. They are backwards it's almost like we are working for them and they are standing around. When we entered we looked at the menu to decide what we wanted to eat, we were called to the register we thought they were going to give us suggestions and gage what we would like but NOPE! They asked us to take a seat out the way and when we know what we want come back up and order and after they make our food come back up to get it ourselves. Now, we wouldn't have had an issue with that but because we had never been there we were looking for some suggestions also once we got up 3 people took our seats so we would have been eating standing up which was a no go. With all that being sad we decided to leave. The restaurant was dirty, they were yelling the orders out ( maybe because the music was to loud), it just seemed unorganized and all over the place and highly overpriced. We will not ever eat there based off our first experience there.

Phenomenal!!! The service is A1. The food is so delicious and it took maybe 15 minutes for my order. I ordered the ribs. At first I was skeptical because some reviews claimed they were burnt. I tried them anyways. The ribs aren’t burnt, the sauce they make is dark. Don’t skip the ribs. They are tasty and very tender. The catfish, fried to perfection and seasoned well. Mac and cheese nice and moist, tasty and not dry. You do have to order at cashier before seating yourself. The really nice lady at the bar kept a smile on her face and was super nice. I will absolutely patronize this establish when I’m visiting ATL.

I ordered through door dash so I can’t speak on the atmosphere. The Turkey wings were good; although the gravy was very watery. I ordered it with the dressing and a side of cranberry sauce (they did not give me my cranberry sauce so you owe me $1.50) . The sweet potatoes were undercooked and not so sweet. It taste like it was missing a lot of something; I threw those away. The greens could have been seasoned better and cooked a little longer. Maybe add a little meat; maybe smoked meat for a little more flavor. The hoecakes were delightful! The deviled eggs were good. The Mac and cheese was tasty. I ordered a lemon cake however, I was given red velvet; I hate red velvet; so I threw it away. I wish they would have called me if they did not have lemon pound cake (you owe me $6). Just a little corrective criticism. I hope the good in this review out weighs the bad.

Fabulous Experience The Fried Green Tomatoes were the best and the dressing. To dip it in is to die for and needed extra for sure

Parking: Easy & free Food: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 2.5/5 Wait time: 2/5 Likely return: 2/5 Small, relaxed, pleasant atmosphere. TV screen over the bar, music playing, but not *too* loudly. The only two members of the staff that I interacted with were cordial & explained their ordering process. My summary: Order, pay, listen for your order number, go get it. For the price point & establishment size, I didn't expect to have to fetch my vittles Hoecakes (3): 5/5 Tasted homemade & served with honey butter Wings (3): 4/5 Pleasantly surprised by the wing size [extra 1/2 point] Sweet chili sauce was more sweet than chili...not likely made in-house. Wings didn't taste marinaded/brined, so there was no distinguishable taste of the wings themselves. Despite the size, they were perfectly cooked. (Some places don't cook larger wings well...kudos to the kitchen staff! ) Brisket sliders (2): 4/5 Reasonably tender brisket on soft, tender rolls, with *just* enough BBQ sauce, for my taste. Some folks might like a bit more sauce. Served with about a tablespoon of slaw in a plastic condiment cup. Speaking of plastic, Lickety Split is the least environmentally conscious spot that I've *ever* experienced. EVERYTHING is served in plastic (deli or clear clamshell containers) or Styrofoam, for dine-in or carry-out. The eating utensils are plastic, packaged in plastic. The knife & fork are pkg'd together, in plastic, spoons are pkg'd separately, in plastic. Drinking cups & straws are plastic. The only things that I encountered that were *not* plastic were the napkins, my cocktail glass & the ice I saw no biodegradable or compostable packaging SMDH

Nothing to run and scream about. The food is just okay. Not many pictures online because well... My friend and myself agreed that the food could use some more seasoning

Picked up my food. The service was nice, albeit a little slow to acknowledge me. The price for the food was also nicely priced. I ordered pulled pork with two sides and a dessert. And paid less than $20. The food was well-portioned as well. That was the positive. I will say, however, the food was average as far as the seasoning and quality. For the pulled pork, it needed to be drenched in sauce, which for me is not good. I would like to be able to taste the meat more than the sauce and it was a bit bland without the sauce being added. Overall, it was an average experience.

I cannot explain it but their fried chicken is indescribably seasoned to perfection and good as heck!!!!!!! I am already planning next stop for food there. Service is great and the whole crew is great

The salmon was delicious. The fried green tomatoes were cut thick. The collard greens were very spicy. Everything is ala carte $71 for two people. Leftovers are in my fridge. I'm going to go back and try them again. BTW, don't go hungry cuz you'll want everything you see. The customer service was top notch and it was clean.

My entire family loved each of their meals! We were in Atlanta for Christmas and came across this spot on TikTok. I ordered Turkey wing with yellow rice & gravy, with sides of yams and mac cheese. The yams were soooo delicious! Only con there was, was the 10% required tipping.. You order at the counter and after being called by the number on your receipt, you bring the food to your own table. So i'm not sure what exactly you're tipping and why it's required. Love supporting black owned businesses but there's always a catch some how some way. Overall, would recommend!

This restaurant went above and beyond all my expectations of any restaurant. The service was amazing. I can't remember the name of our server, but I've never seen a server that cool. And they just happen to be close to the comedy show. The food was seasoned perfect not over salty none of that crap. Next time I'm in Atlanta I surely will be there.

The food and customer service here is amazing. Free parking in the back. Grab a menu and place your order then grab a seat and wait for your number to be called. I had the shrimp, with yams & cabbage. Everything tasted amazing. So I went back the next day . Ms. Melissa holds that kitchen down. If you are looking for some delicious soul food stop on in.

I had so much expectation for this place. It was just okay to me. I got there maybe 30 mins after they were open during the week. I ended up stopping here because it's not that far from the airport. Plenty of parking on the side of the building. I wanted to try the turkey but that was not ready. I ended up trying the smoked salmon and the beef brisket. The smoked salmon was tasty. The beef brisket was tough! The Mac and cheese and dressing were tasty. I waited about 30 mins for my food. That's a long time to me. It was only about 5 other customers there and 4 of them already were eating. So the wait time to get your food is not great especially when your not busy. They also add additional fees to your receipt when you order it to go. The prices are high. I don't mind spending money on good food but I want to at least satisfied after I eat. This was not the case here. I shared it with my husband he did not care for it either. I won't return.

My first visit was very average, at best. However I'll put a disclaimer that my review is biased because I had no proteins at all during this visit due to oral surgery. I came in with a friend around 7:30 PM on a Friday night. It was pretty empty. The set up in this place is weird as far as ordering. It's self seating and then you go to the counter to order, but there is zero signage indicating this. So we kinda stood around until someone finally acknowledged us and said something. We ended up ordering Mac and cheese, yams, lemon pepper wings, ribs, and hoecakes. We both got Arnold Palmers as our drink. Let's start with the good: the Mac was really good. Cheesy and seasoned well. My friend loved his lemon pepper wings and said he'd come back just for that. The hoecakes were also tasty and the butter served with them was good, although one was slightly burnt. Now on to everything else: yams are a solid 0/10. Not cooked all the way through, not enough cinnamon, and veryyyy watery. I'd steer clear. I actually threw the rest away which is very unlike me. My friend said his ribs were average. He expected better. And those Arnold palmers? Yeahhh, it definitely was not giving Georgia sweet tea at all. They weren't good in my opinion. Also, the first one they brought my friend had a black speck floating in it. Concerning cause it's likely mold in the ice maker. All in all, I MIGHT give them a second try to test out the wings since my friend raved about them. And maybe also try a drink from the bar. If you're close by I'd say give it a try. In total I think we spent about $55. I forgot to take pics before eating so excuse the photo. It should also be noted that whether you dine in or do take out, everything is served in take out containers. Very weird concept to me.

We made a reservation but our table wasn't available. I found the restaurant to be very warm. They probably need to run some fans or turn up the air conditioning. The fried chicken was good but not great. The salad was kinda bland. The people that worked there were nice but were overwhelmed by how busy it was.

If you're just coming into Atlanta and you want to find some good food near the airport; try out Lickety split. There is plenty of parking in the back; however the inside is pretty small so if you have a stroller or car seat it's best to leave it in the car. Inside you can find a bar where you can order drinks and watch whatever is planning on the tv. Typically they'll have R&B/hip hop music playing in the background. When you come in you grab a menu and go to the register to order. It's open layout so you can see into the kitchen with no problem. Their menu is curated where you everything is a la carte. Recommended to order: Jumbo fried shrimp Catfish Fried wings Pork chops Sweet tea Lemonade Cabbage Fries Yams Mac n cheese (hit or miss at times) Collard greens (could use more seasoning)

10/10 recommend. Cheap soul food and a big serving of it. I got the fried chicken and it was incredible. 3 large pieces of dark meat for 10 bucks with a crispy batter.. this is unheard of. The collard greens and smackin Mac were great. The only food items that I ate that lacked were the strawberry banana pudding (felt like eating a cup of cool whip/ not dense enough for my liking) and the cornbread (comparable to the cheap jiffy dry corn bread in the box). Regardless because of the service, price and the chicken, I would go back again and again.

The food and service are awesome. Also the employees are pleasant and I would recommend this place.

Upon walking in, I was confused because I was greeted, but it was more of a greeting with an expectation to order your food to-go. There were tables, but it felt like I was supposed to order to-go based on how I was greeted. When my food came out, the guy asked me if I was eating there or taking my food to go (this definitely should have been asked when I first walked in). I ordered the brisket and although it was plentiful, the brisket wasn't tender at all and very tough. I almost wanted to return the food, but I stuck with it. I ordered the fried green tomatoes too and they were good, but a few were not. They automatically added a 10% gratuity to my ticket, which was less than what I would have tipped, but I don't add extra if I've automatically charged for gratuity. They had good music and the food came out quickly.

Small place near the airport but the food was phenomenal! Service was great too Love was a sweetheart and helped me decide between two popular dishes the Fried Chicken and the Turkey Wing. I went with the Fried Chicken and it was fried to perfection and everything was FRESH and seasoned appropriately!

Cute place with indoor and outdoor seating and a bar. Service was good and food was delicious. I wish I'd taken more pictures. Brisket and ribs were delicious along with the fried green tomatoes, potato salad, baked beans, hoecake and greens.

Sunday was crowded and service was really good and fast. I ordered the turkey wings, rice and collard greens.. Food was so good and tasty. This was my first time here and i was super happy with the food and service. So much flavor and big portions.. A lot of seats available, a lot of space, no table service so you order first and pick up the food and you can dine in if you want too..

I've had Lickety Split bookmarked in Yelp for a long time and finally checked them out for lunch one Saturday with my family. We ordered the 5 piece wing appetizer. There were different flavors to select from, we chose lemon pepper. I ordered the 2 piece catfish fried and a side of collard greens. I also received 2 corn bread muffins as part of my Yelp check in deal. Other food that was ordered was a burger, chicken tenders & fries, and Mac and cheese. The collard greens had no flavor only spice so we had to ask for salt to see if that would help. The Mac and cheese was good, but not creamy like I normally like it. The fries that came with the tenders was so good. I will definitely be back.

Was in a hotel close by and came here for lunch! The food was pretty good. The lemon pepper honey wings were sweet but also had that tangy taste of the lemon which was a good mix. My friend said the shrimp was alright and nothing special. The old fashioned was quite strong , the strength of the drink didn't over power the taste which is always a good thing. Service was pretty direct and I appreciated it

This place is pretty great. Parking behind is packed. Food is solid - good mac and cheese, very tasty. Fried green toms maybe best in town.

I had seen advertisement & mentions of this restaurant on IG. Suggested it to a friend so we had a lunch date. Agreed to meetup about 15 mins after their opening time. Plenty of free seating inside & parking in the back area. We decided to sit at the bar! I ordered the Mexican Mule. It was tasty with plenty of limes. I was drinking it a little too fast bcos it tasted so good. Also, once we ordered the food then it was a surprise to see them in ToGo containers. Why no actual dishes? I enjoyed each portion of my meal except for the black eyed peas. My catfish was seasoned well & not too salty. I had a taste for them so badly that I made Black eyed peas at home. I'd reduce a star for that much bcos I really wanted my complete meal to be good. I'm unaware of the overall cost since my friend treated me. My extra Mexican Mule was $9, to include the tip. I'll be back again to support a Black owned business. I will not order that particular side again.

I definitely like this soul food spot. The Mac n cheese is off the chain! Whomever it is making it, kudos to you! The over all good is very tasteful. I haven't had an actual drink from this place (they have a bar fyi). Not going to lie, every-time I've gone, it always crowded . They must be doing something right

Yelp
Sooooo I really wanted to love this place but it missed the mark for me. Now I am a chef so maybe my expectations were a bit high. But hear me out... Catfish was good. Best thing I had. Fried and seasoned well Mac and cheese needed some seasoning and more cheese.. it's made with smoked Gouda but that's all I tasted... Yams were soupy and sitting in a pool of caro syrup. It was honestly tooo sweet And the greens were mid. My sister loved her pork chops and I liked that they had a a full bar. It's fast casual and a chill atmosphere which I liked. But overall the food wasn't as a good as I hoped for. I've heard so many good things so I'm going to go back and try again.

A friend of mine was visiting from California and we were looking for a place to eat. I started asking her the usual questions a guy always asks a woman about what she wants to eat. I was fully expecting to be caught in the where are we eating conversation for the next hour or two but she surprised me by stating the obvious, "We're in the South so let's eat some Southern food." Well duh. So LS was close by so we entered and sat at the bar which ended up being a great idea because the bartender Jay was one heck of a guy. He's a fellow actor so we had a great conversation about theatre and film. The atmosphere of this place was very social and ended up having a few amazing conversations with a fellow veteran and a business consultant. As a plus, the food didn't disappoint. I really enjoyed my beef brisket and my friend loved her salmon, okra and cabbage. Overall we left full of belly and mind. I would definitely go back.

We were in Atlanta for one night and wanted to grab some semi-quick dinner. Yelp showed good reviews and we decided to give it a try. So glad we did! It's a small place with a bar area and 9-10 tables inside and some outside seating. I ordered the fried chicken and spouse ordered the fried catfish. We also ordered Mac-N-Cheese and the Green Beans as sides. Chicken was well seasoned, cooked to perfection, and hot. The fried catfish was hot, breading had nice flavor. The Mac was silky, al dente and cheesy flavor. The green beans were garlicky and very good. 4 Stars for the food and last Star was for the service. We accidentally left our mobile phone on the table and came back and it was handed to us with a nod and a smile. THANKS!!!! If you're looking for some good Southern home cooking give this place a try. FYI- The entrees do not come with sides. Sides are all sold al la carte.

Delicious food, although the turkey wing was bit too salty. But the burger...OMG!! Best burger and fries I've had in a long while. Keep in mind that the kitchen is kind of small so the food takes a while as the cook it on the spot. I waited a really long time for my food (my party was already done eating) and was surprised that I wasn't comped anything.

Yelp
this place is TRASH ! mac and cheese horrible they using frozen corn not real corn horrible candy yams horrible fried wings are the only thing that I would recommend other than that this place is trash don't do it unless you just want some fried wings and I mean just literally this is not a real soul food spot .They using cheap low grade ingredients and you can taste it in the food .this some Asians or Chinese people trying to cook soul food and it's not they lane seriously

Kiara A.

Yelp
This place actually had pretty decent soul food. The Mac & cheese wasn't great but it wasn't horrible either. Probably leaning more towards being not great tho.. but who's Mac & cheese really is that great besides your moms ;) the dressing however was very edible, best dressing I've had from a restaurant. And the catfish was fine too. I also had their pound cake. Now when you first bite into it's a bit tart, but after awhile it turns out to be a pretty good pound cake. Overall it was fine. We did not dine in, so I cannot tell you how the service & ambiance was

This was a pleasant surprise after a flight in. Quick and easy access from the airport and the food was absolutely delicious and definitely reminded me of a southern home cooked meal. I had the brisket with gravy that was perfect consistency and so flavorful. The hoecakes were the best I've ever eaten, buttery and crispy on the outside, sweet and soft on the inside. Service was fantastic and everybody was so nice and professional. I hope to be back next time we fly in to Atlanta. I wish I had taken pictures before I dug in, but everything smelled and looked so good I couldn't wait.

Yelp
Food was not seasoned. Pictures did not look like the food. I thought they waited on you at your table. But you ordered at the counter and I could not carry my own food because I am disabled. I will not go back and I will not recommend it to anyone.

Ken J.

Yelp
Man! That was some good food. The grilled and smoked chicken was the star followed by the candied yams and okra. More spice on the black eyed peas would be great. If you are staying near airport eat here or get some takeaway. You won't be disappointed!

Tasty food and I'll be back, if I'm in the area again. I stopped by this restaurant twice during a recent trip to Atlanta. The food and customer service is very good!! The restaurant is easily accessible, the employees gave that true Southern hospitality, and the food tasted amazing! We got the chicken (fried, juicy, and smothered - I think), fried shrimp, fried pork chops, collard greens (had a nice lil spicy kick), potato salad (I was nervous but it was a good choice), a burger, dinner rolls, corn muffins, and Arnold Palmer (sweet tea + lemonade). Everything was well-seasoned and delicious. The smothered chicken (w/ 2 sides) was enough for leftovers, for me. First, I came on a Saturday around noon and they were empty so everything was prepared pretty quickly. Came back again on Sunday around 4 and they were pretty busy. I ordered porkchops, fried shrimp, and corn muffins and it took 37 minutes from ordering til I received the order. Even though they were crowded, they had a lot of employees but I don't think they were being used efficiently. Bottom line, if you come on Sunday and/or around dinner time, come with patience and before you get tooooo hungry. Also, keep in mind that the entreees are sold separate from the sides and an automatic 10% gratuity is added to each bill. I will definitely come here again if I'm in the area.

I have been sleeping on this establishment for quite some time. I didn't know that they have really good food. What attracted me to them when I looked at the menu what's the fact that they have hoecakes and fried green tomatoes. What restaurant do you know sells hoe cakes these days? I ordered Fried Chicken, sweet potatoes, potato salad, whole cakes, and sweet potato pie. I also ordered a kids meal that was beef brisket on a Hawaiian roll the side of macaroni and cheese. These folks are not stingy when it comes to serving chicken. I received two chicken breasts and a thigh perfectly fried perfectly seasoned. It was not dry it was juicy and it was hot. 10 out of 10 would recommend. Now let's get to the sides. The sweet potatoes were sweets and mushy but didn't have the cinnamon and nutmeg I was looking for, not a bad dish just didn't do it for me. I give it a 6 out of 10. The same with the sweet potato pie it was a little small and didn't have that nutmeg and cinnamon that I was looking for six out of 10. The potato salad unfortunately is store-bought potato salad. Yes I was disappointed about that. The fried green tomatoes were the bomb. Perfection. The absolute star of this show was the hoe cakes. They were three hoe cakes in the container. They were perfectly cooked not burnt not undercooked they were just perfect and they tasted even better. It comes with some type of cinnamon butter I think but honestly I just wish I had order some greens to go with it because the whole cakes were just that good. The whole cakes really saved this review with the lack of the size being good to me. I will continue to order from here and try different sides to see what I like. It's just like that these days. I just take the time to learn what's good to me and go from there.

I give Lickety Split an 8 out of 10. We ordered a variety of food to try and majority was very good, the lady at the bar that took our order was nice also. What I loved were the greens-they melt in your mouth, catfish bites, and hoe cakes, The deviled eggs were god but they add sugar and I'm not a fan of sweet eggs, yams were ok, fried chicken tasted more like homemade chicken and not as tasty as I expected, the sweet tea was ok. There's a decent amount of parking in the back of the location and a back entrance as well.

I came here with three other individuals and we all have very different tastes and dietary needs. We were each able to find something satisfying to eat here. I went with their fried green tomatoes and mac and cheese. Mac and cheese? Good. Fried green tomatoes? Great! One of the people with me was raving about their chicken wings. They said they were the most tasty and well cooked wings they have ever had. This is a very casual spot. Order and the counter and seat yourself. A perfect place to grab a quick bite to eat before heading into the airport, like what we did to avoid the airport prices on food.

We just flew in town for the weekend for a wedding and we're craving some good comfort food after our flight. It was incredible, staff super friendly and welcoming, and service was top notch with a cozy atmosphere! We got a literal feast of ribs, catfish, hoecakes, potato salad and candied yams. Everything was amazing, the fish was crispy on the outside and melt-in-your mouth inside, ribs as you can see were amazing our only regret was we couldn't try absolutely everything on the menu! 5/5 stars do not miss!!!

if you don't got patience, don't eat here. good food takes time, and i don't want you messing up the rhythm. if you in a rush, the food is bussin period. if you got time, read on: it's june 2023 and i just got a job offer in Atlanta and we gonna celebrate. i'm an asian boy grown in hawaii. don't know nothing about the souths or the states and don't know nobody here. i look around and nobody smiles in atlanta, where im from everybody smile and they're happy. maybe people just tougher out here. this lady at the bar smile at me, she always got this deep red lipstick on, anyway she takes my order. it's the kind of comfort smile, like she don't know if im crazy or if im just from outta town. but she takes care of me and i sit and wait for my food. it's just me in that place, but it's loud. you can hear the pans hit the burner, the wings bubble in the fryer, and the hot broth being strained from greens through the slotted spoons. i'm kidding, idk what's happening but they cook in that kitchen. the food comes in styrofoam containers like the kine i used to get from the manapua man in high school. the smell was just so crazy. the smokiness from the ribs, the melted butter or grease in the hoe cakes mannnn. my mouth was watering and i swallowed my drool so i can take a picture. on the outside, im tryna stay chill so nobody think im weird. mahalo ke akua and the hands that prepared that blessing. everything fire. wings crispy, rib sauce thicc, hoecake was hoeing. the way i was so mad because they didn't tickle their toes in this food, they stuck their whole foot in it. bbq was ruined for me. people say when you think of home, you think of moms cooking. well, my mom didnt cook good, but that's another story. when i think of atlanta, i think of lickiety split. it's 4490 miles from here to honolulu, and i come back every chance i get. it's now jan 2024, and im going vegan because my health isn't good. i wanted this food to basically be my last supper, and i wrote this review hoping the owner would notice, and make something vegan friendly to keep me in this lahui. thank you for sharing this good food with the world.

We had a long layover in Atlanta and went here for dinner since it was close to the airport. So worth it! We ordered a variety of items, everything was very good! Our absolutely favorite item was the grilled shrimp. The flavor and spices on the shrimp were absolutely delicious! The brisket sliders, Mac and cheese, and hoe cakes also so good! Service was good and food came out quickly but be aware it does take a little time because everything is fresh and made to order. Inside It feels more like a fast food type place like a chipotle or panera where you order at the counter and wait for your number to be called to pick up your food. And everything is served to go containers. Would definitely return!

OMG!!! I had been on a search for the perfect fried pork chop with gravy - couldn't find the perfect crunch and tenderness anywhere. I stumbled on this place by accident one day dropping my mom at the airport. Upon entering it's a bit interesting in that your not sure if you sit or order at the counter - oh and there is a full bar btw (bonus) it's nothing fancy the ambiance is like your sitting at your favorite Aunts house and the food is delicious. I've been several times now and it is consistently good- your food is prepared as you order so it may take a few minutes, but it's so worth the wait. The owner prepares this food with much love, and you taste it in every bite. I recommend the fried pork chop with gravy and Turkey Wings - Mac n cheese, collards, green beans - it's all delicious and oh yeah ho-cakes - so good takes you back home ...YOU gotta try it - go and enjoy - also perfect is to call ahead - pick up and take it home - I can never wait till then and have pulled over and watched planes while eating -

My mom has gone to this place a few times and we decided to go on a lunch date here on a Sunday afternoon. I was concerned that it might be a little busy but apparently we got that at a perfect time and made it about 15 mins after they opened so it wasn't too busy. Located in Hapeville Center, right off Virginia Ave and Norman Berry and across, there's a huge private lot in the back with plenty of free parking so no worries there. There are two entrances that can be used so if you park in the lot behind the restaurant you can of course walk around to the front entrance on Norman Berry or just walk straight in the back entrance which works better as it puts directly at the ordering area and you'll see a sign letting you know there are menus available for you as well as where the line begins for ordering. The young lady at the counter was super sweet and was able to give some suggestions when my mom wasn't quite sure what she wanted. I decided I wasn't super hungry and got the salmon croquettes (which is actual a starter) with a side of broccoli, my mom got catfish fillets, and my little guy got catfish nuggets and fries from the kids menu. Most of the entrees don't come with sides so we ended up ordering a veggie plate as it was a bit cheaper do so (thanks to the young lady helping us at the counter) and got the broccoli, green beans, and steamed mixed veggies. We were told our number and decided to sit outside on their front patio area while waiting. I will say it took about 20 mins before we got our food but it was worth the wait. Everything was super hot and really fresh and tasty. My mom is quite particular about food and when she enjoys something, it must be good. She said her catfish was delicious but she loved the broccoli and mixed veggies the best as they were seasoned very well and there was a generous portion. The salmon croquettes were really good and while there were two of them, they were a pretty big size and came with a sauce that was pretty tasty. My little one enjoyed his food and I did steal a bite and the catfish was good. Oh and let me not forget about the sweet tea. Just some goooooooood stuff! A really good experience I must say with great service and delicious food! There's also a full bar area if you'd like a libation or two. I didn't get anything but the bartender was friendly and asked if I needed anything as I passed by. I'll definitely be back soon!

I have been to this place a million times and am rarely disappointed. The food is always great and the prices are even better. There is a hit or miss with drinks depending on the Bartender, but it has never deterred me from coming back. Plenty of parking!!!

YOU MUST TRY THIS. If you're ever near the airport in Atlanta Georgia, stop here and get a hoecake! Or real southern fried chicken, or h3ll even a burger! The food was phenomenal and FRESH so it did take a bit to get it but well worth the wait. The hospitality was the best we received in the whole week we were in Georgia, sweet folks. The ambience was up up up and casual, nice southern bistro type with outdoor seating. The whole family loved the food- brisket sliders, hoecakes, fried chicken, tenders, and a cheeseburger. The fries were really good too!

My food was pipin' hot and I loved that! However, the taste didn't live up to the hype from the other reviews. The fried green tomatoes were too thick and they used too much cornmeal, the salmon croquettes were too salty, the strawberry lemonade was too sweet, the brisket was way tougher than it should've been and the Mac and cheese didn't have enough cheese, it was dry and tasted OK. The prices could be a bit lower too, one piece of salmon for $13 with no sides? I don't think so. I MIGHT give them another shot, only because the line was out the door and the other reviews are great. Also, we sat at the bar and she surely wasn't the friendliest person there.
