Low Country

I wasn’t expecting to have one of the best meals of my day at the airport, but Low Country at ATL completely blew me away. I ordered the salmon with southern-style broccoli and carrots, and it was exactly what I needed—flavorful, perfectly cooked, and surprisingly nourishing for airport fare. The salmon was tender and seasoned to perfection, and the veggies had that comforting Southern twist without feeling heavy. It was balanced, satisfying, and honestly the best possible choice I could have made between flights. If you’re looking for a real meal that doesn’t feel like fast food, do yourself a favor and stop here. This place is a rare find in an airport—and I’ll definitely be back!

Genuinely the best airport meal I’ve ever had. Everything was so deliciously seasoned. I don’t know how they get the skin on their baked chicken so crispy! And you can taste the real cheese in that macaroni and cheese. Thank you Low Country for feeding me well this layover! Don’t miss this spot on your next trip thru ATL.

I just had the best meal I’ve eaten in two weeks at this Concourse A spot. First thing I noticed was the smell - garlic and shrimp smelled great. I had the shrimp with the fresh sautéed green beans and the Mac & cheese. The mac&cheese was some of the best ive eaten that i didnt make. The green beans were fresh and crisp and garlicky. And the shrimp were perfectly prepared and served with a little buttery, garlicky peppers and onions. It was $20. Can’t imagine why you’d spend $15 -25 at any other spot in the terminal when you get this for $20.

$19+ for two chicken legs and small portions of green beans and Mac and Cheese. Chicken was barely warm and had little flavor. I go through ATL all the time and finally decided to give this place a try. Poor value. Never again. If you want fried chicken go to Popeyes in Terminal B.

Audacity should be the name of this place. There is no way this kids cup of Quaker quick grits should have costed $8.48. The display menu said it was cheese grits with bacon. I taste no cheese & there’s no bacon lol plus the employee was just as bland as the grits but I can imagine this job in this draining. Just don’t waste your money

Delicious food. Great service. 10/10 hospitality. Brandon is very nice and helpful. He is friendly. I will come back here.

Decent food for quick service at an airport. The spots on either side had long lines but this spot didn’t have a single person on line. I gave it a chance and the only people who stepped in line behind me were airport employees which I think is a good sign! Got the shrimp with carrots and rice which were quite good. $21 for the meal which feels a bit steep but that might be pretty normal for ATL. Cheaper than missing my connection if I waited on the other lines.

I did not appreciate being charged extra for cheese when the menu price included. The cashier explained the register has the item separate and the price advertised has not been updated.

Very pleasantly surprised. It's like a Soul Food spot but the menu is unique. Classics like fried chicken and broccoli but as a side I had fried rice and I saw caramel bacon bread pudding but sometimes you gotta chill....the chicken was delicious and so was the fried Rice. I remember buddy's cooking shows, always loved his enthusiasm and will stop here every time I'm in the terminal. Definitely gonna try that bacon bread pudding..

So I am in the Atlanta airport for a 2 hour layover and right at 10:30 am and I see one of my favorite chefs G. Garvin has this low country restaurant. I decided to try them out. First had cafeteria lady aka Madea behind the counter. She was quick to tell me what they ain't got and they about to switch over to lunch. Okay I wanted shrimp and grits, biscuit, and bottled drink $30 which I was okay with since I was at the airport. Grits bland no seasonings shrimp good flavor but swimming in grease and biscuit damn near choked the crap out of me. I was truly disappointed and I don't recommend them at all. Unless they get friendlier staff and fresher flavorful food.

I've have enjoyed having breakfast at this Atlanta location on Concourse A for several years, this was the worst ever. Cheese eggs were runny, sausage was dry, biscuit was also very dry. I ate most of it because I was hungry this early! And, could the staff even try to smile at customers? The best part of the meal was the attendant named Sunday who handed out utensils and helped find a table! Yes, he got the tip!

If you want something other than your typical fast food in the airport, this is a good place to go. I didn't want burgers and fries or burrito. I was pressed for time so mac & cheese, broccoli and fried chicken hit the spot. I wouldn't say that it's the best soul food I've ever had.....could've used the pinch of salt on the chicken and mac & cheese. However, the chicken was juicy and crispy. I ordered a side of bread pudding, which I waited six minutes for ...the middle of the bread pudding was cold so I dont know what they warmed up for six minutes. Their serving sizes are just enough, but they're not gonna give you any anymore than one scoop.

Executive Chef G. Garvin's LowCountry Restaurant in Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Terminal A, next to Boar's Head Cafe. Food court setting shared with other restaurants. The food was fast-food style and kept warm via heat lamps or warming table. I asked the cashier which chicken was most popular? She recommended the Rosemary Baked Chicken. Done. I got that along with two sides: cheese grits and mac and cheese. The chicken (thigh and breast) was very flavorful, savory, tender, and juicy. It's a bit salty at times for my taste, but overall, it's pretty good. The mac and cheese was good, but nothing spectacular. The cheese grits with bacon were good, granted I don't have much experience eating it, but cheesy grits were pretty good! Overall 3.5 stars. If ever in Atlanta for an extended stay, I would try his restaurant. But, if you can't like me, I am glad I tried it and would be back. FYI, just recently (like 2 days ago actually), I saw an old episode of DDD, and Guy Fieri was sampling places with Chef Garvin.

I had the fried chick entree, it comes with two sides for $21.00. My sides were macaroni and cheese and rice. I could tell the chicken was going to be good by looking at it and the flavor did not disappoint. The mac and cheese was really good and the rice was just average white rice that looked like it had a lot of flavor. Gravy would have been great on top of the rice. When I walked up there was one person ahead of me. They have the trays out front and you can pick what you want, service was quick and they give you a decent amount of food. This location is in the airport so it's super busy and plenty of seats. So if your are looking for a calm ambiance this is not the location to eat but you can take your food to another area and enjoy.

Food was flavorful. They were out of alot of items. Mac wasn't done, it was very soupy when it shouldn't had more of a solid consistency. Service was ok. Young gentleman was respectful. It was a line so he could've used another person on the front line.

Unfortunately the biscuit was dry and pretty tasteless for $5.49. The staff all seemed to be having a bad day as no one could say thank you. Wanted to give you some business since Chick-Fil-A is always busy. Next time we will wait in the line for Chick-Fil-A.

First time customer. The name grabbed my attention from across the concourse. I got the fried chicken special for $14.95 with two sides. It. Was. Delicious! I def could have eaten more chicken. Tastes like homemade. Well seasoned. Light batter. Crispy outside. Juicy inside. The black eyed peas were equally as tasty. I should have opted for brown rice. Didn't eat much of brocolli. It was fine. I just thought about my connecting flight and didn't want to be gassy. I'll def look for them if I'm in concourse A again. This spot might be the best part of flying to ATL.

Service got this place a star. Waffles out, gravy out, biscuits out, French toast dry, bacon overcooked hard, eggs ok. Egg platter- ok, grits salty, chicken sausage ok. Spent $39 on food that we couldn't eat. It was so sad to see the woman in the front saying we're out, none of this or that. Our first time to Atlanta. Wish them well. They must be popular as they didn't have food and were probably scrambling.

While waiting for my layover, I decided to check out Low Country as I had heard wonderful things. Unfortunately, I cannot say anything positive about their location in the Atlanta airport. It was around 3 o'clock, and with nobody in line, I approached. They were seemingly out of almost everything. I thought they would have restocked after the lunch rush, but I proceeded to check out what they did have. The employees, while not rude, did not provide any special experience; they seemed like they were just waiting to clock out. I noticed they had the famous Chef G's crispy fried chicken. I ordered this, which came with two sides. I selected mac and cheese and green beans. When it was about time to pay, the initially quoted "13.50" had jumped to "22," which took me by surprise. I decided it was worth it, given it was Chef G's food, and placed the order. However, the chicken, while tasty, was extremely greasy. The mac and cheese was lukewarm at best, and the green beans were soggy and unpleasant. Overall, I would suggest trying the real restaurant, not the airport version

I just left ATL airport. Food was cold. I asked for a fried egg on sourdough. They didn't toast the bread and gave me an egg that was sitting there. Terrible! I'm convinced ATL businesses are being ruined by the workers.

Delicious Mac cheese with broccoli and carrots. Didn't try any protein meat. And I've been missing southern food! So glad to have this opportunity when I travel.

Delish and fresh!!! Service was excellent and fast. Must stop by when in the Atlanta airport.

Location #6065 on 2/14/2025@ 7:38pm Chk 20331. Rosmary Baked Chicken. The chicken was not cleaned properly. It was not baked rosemary seasoning. It was fried feather ducts. 3 pieces of chicken wings for $14.04. Low Country #6065 in Atl Hartsfield Airport is horrible. In these perilous economic times we are being forced to live in, a company must do better!!

This is always my favorite place at the ATL airport. My routine if I have time is to head straight to A, and Low Country is right next to the escalators above the tram. I usually get the fried chicken with mac + cheese and bacon grits on the side. It's decent value too (Fried chicken combo is $15ish), especially for an airport establishment.

Low Country - I was served by Ms. Kimberly F at the cash register. I ordered salmon, broccoli, and rice, and the food was impeccable. After my meal, I returned to the cashier to inquire about their food, and she explained that everything is made from scratch with genuine care. I highly recommend choosing Low Country for a meal; the hospitality and food there are exceptional. Thank you, Kimberly F, for your wonderful service and beautiful smile. I promise to tip you generously on my next visit.

Quick layover in ATL, so I grabbed something to eat. It was breakfast time, which I love. It was hard to decide because everything looked really good, but since there were a few people ahead of me, it gave me some time. Ordered eggs with cheese, a biscuit, pork sausage patties, and breakfast potatoes. I wanted to try the grits and French toast, too. They gave a hearty portion, so I couldn't eat everything, but filled up and made my out egg, cheese & sausage biscuit with syrup. Delicious! It's definitely a good spot to have a meal while if you have a layover in concourse A.

Lunch was okay at Low Country. Entree comes with two sides. Mac & cheese was the best, very creamy and tasty. Good string beans and peas. Garlic shrimp was on the dry side, cost $11.79. Salmon filet was very dry and bland, cost $17.50. Small bottle of Dasani is $3.25.

Amir was amazing!! He gave incredible service and I will definitely be coming back to the Low Country restaurant each time I come to the Atlanta airport. The best food I promise you!

Very Good, the (2) ladies on duty, shelia & Michelle were amazing. & in my opinion should be recognized...Definitely helpful Food was great also

When the sign says eggs and cheese, you shouldn't be charged extra for the cheese. Am I wrong? Food was not bad, overpriced

Very nice and quick service. Shelia's smile and positivity started my morning off right!

A surprise! Food was delish, generous, & server was so nice. I am always looking for great salads and the chopped salad with fried chicken was excellent. Others had nice veggies, unique for not being overcooked, rice was fluffy, shrimp yummy, fried chix yummy. My new go to in Terminal A.

If you're traveling and not from the south and don't know any better, this is a good option for breakfast with cheesy eggs, grits, maple bacon, biscuit and gravy. Unfortunately for $15, I would've stuck with Starbucks! I was craving smothered biscuit with eggs and maple bacon southern style, it LOOKED the part, but was more like a Mona Lisa. The eggs were watery and cheese was chewy. Odd combo. The biscuit was super bland and overcooked and a little chewy. The gravy was pretty good all things considered. The maple bacon was cooked perfectly. Thick, glazed and well done but not burnt. Saved the unhealthy breakfast LOL! Unfortunately won't be back as the cost to quality ratio just isn't enticing enough.

The food was gross. The fried chicken was very salty but was piping hot. Both the broccoli and rice was unpalatable. Would not recommend.

Shortest line in this food area. I wasn't just wanting fried chicken or Mac N Cheese. Was hoping for maybe a sandwich, since it's easy to eat or a salad even. They are out of sandwiches and salads too. Hitting strikes left and right here. Too short of a window to look for other options.

This is in most Concourses A-F of Hartsfield airport. It is Lowcountry food item choices which were not that appetizing. The rice I would never order again was awful, macaroni was okay. That's not the major problem, it was the person serving. She was talking on phone so basically ignoring my wife's multiple requests not to add too much sauce. The container became very flimsy from the sauce it was ridiculous. Just a headache in every aspect the food, price, worker, avoid all together.

Friendly staff. Enjoyed the mac and cheese. The pasta was well cooked and it filled me up! The card reader took several tries to read my card.

I am praying the restaurant experience is better than the airport. The server had no idea about anything we asked about. I have been through this airport several times over the last 5 years and I had never noticed it before. The server told me it was there longer than she had been working there. I asked if there was a restaurant in the city; her response was I don't know, I work here. G. Garcia must not have any input on the hiring process. The food was tasty but the customer service was horrible!!!

Horrible. Tge employee said the chicken had been out 5 min., prior to my ordering; she lied. Then the cashier guy asked if I was paying cash/card? I did my card & that machine asked if I wanted to leave a tip? A tip, 4 what? Lying, placing my overly salted, dried out food in a bag half hazardly? I was bewildered. Why would I "tip" 4 something I have not tasted? I mean, if G. Garvin is Mr paying his employees their minimum wage, I'm not making up 4 it! $30.25 for 2 Pcs. of dry, salty chicken, dry, salty Mac and cheese & salty, cheesy grits w-uncooked bacon. The squash was the only decent edible item. I was on my way to Cali., however, this food was a RIP-OFF & Definitely NOT worth the cost. G. Garvin should b ashamed of himself!

I was absolutely thrilled to see chef G. Garvin's restaurant in the Atlanta airport on my flight back to Columbus, OH!! My meal was absolutely delicious!!! I had superb fried chicken, delicious creamy macaroni and cheese, and the best broccoli I've ever had!! So glad I was back in my home state of Georgia and got to enjoy a splendid meal! The employees were so nice and helpful too! I do miss that southern hospitality!! It was a great end to my visit back home for my nephew's wedding and father's 90th birthday!

The woman who took our orders was very quick and accurate serving me and my boyfriend. The employee Name on the receipt shows Stephanie B. The kitchen was a little slow with bringing our food out. The restaurant had a great selection of food choices for the breakfast meal. I thoroughly enjoyed my croissant with a fried egg, bacon and cheese. And my boyfriend, who can be a picky eater, enjoyed his breakfast too.

The sausage & egg croissant was fabulous :)' It was hot & fresh made to order. It was the best part of my trip. Thank you so much. I was hangry! Haha. The coffee, not so much. Will return for the super fresh yummy sausage & egg croissant! Get it y'all! Highly recommend :)'

What a pleasant surprise. I thought the food would be Airport type generic food but the food tastes homemade in every way! Shrimp and grits, crispy bacon, eggs fried hards, eggs scrambled, chicken sausage and so much more. If you're in Terminal A in the airport, go to Low Country by G. Garvin! #HappyEating

When travelling, you know you found a good food spot when three airline captains are walking up to a place. I had a couple of hours to pass in ATL, so I figured dinner was in order. They had homestyle food, today's lot being baked chicken with lots of sides to choose from - mac and cheese, grits, greens, okra, all the good stuff. I opted for a blackened chicken sandwich. It took about 10 minutes for it to be ready, and i splurged and got the mac and cheese as a side. For around $12, I was set. The seasoning was light enough so you weren't overpowered and had a little kick at the end. Very good. The mac and cheese side was large and very creamy. Homerun. Probably the best thing about the place, though, was the outstanding three ladies working the counter and kitchen. They were friendly, accommodating, struck up a great rapport with all customers, and really made you feel like you are valued. Very thankful for a great experience while flying.

I've been here a few times and dinner is by far better than breakfast (the salmon was delicious). Breakfast was a good variety at a decent price point for airport dining. I liked that the fried egg on the biscuit sandwich was actually a real cooked egg vs. a rehydrated patty. Decent place for a quick bite in the Atlanta airport.

Soooooo glad I stopped. Wanted to play it safe since I'm between flights and was headed to another popular fast food restaurant in the area. Then I saw the sign Southern Cooking. I looked and at the time-it's around 9 - they only had one entree choice and three sides. I actually said, nah, and started to walk away. One of the coolest things about traveling is trying the local restaurants. So I turned back around and ordered what they had. The baked salmon was cooked just like I like. The green beans were crisp and tasty. The mac and cheese was really good. Great choice. Check them out. Hopefully you are flying in earlier in the day.

I'm very disappointed. Every restaurant was packed besides this one. This business is either poorly managed or run lazily by its employees. I wanted to try but was told the only food available is what was left, which consisted of veggies, baked chicken, and a small piece of salmon. This was two hours prior to closing time, and the cook said he/she wasn't making anything else.

Restaurant is located within the A terminal of Atlanta airport. I have been eating here every time my plane lands in Atlanta. This is a good place for southern cooking. The food is tasty, especially the Black Eyed Peas and the grits. The chicken and salmon are excellent choices as well. The cost of the meal was reasonable. And this is a recommended place to eat whenever one has a layover Atlanta airport.

I've been flying out of ATL for 7 years. the lines at Low Country are always non-existent, so I went once and have been fooled into going back a few times (thinking it might be different. I tried it again today because I didn't want to wait. Shame on me! They consistently have the worst customer service. The baked chicken is not bad, but the rest is either poorly prepared or served cold. I witnessed poor service in front of and behind me, and I experienced poor service personally. They should wonder why their volume is so much less than their neighbors. They all pull from the same labor pool, so that can't be it. This place is poorly managed. Terrible!

Great restaurant, with freshly made hot & cold items. Surprised me and the prices weren't too crazy. Lots of staff working hard to keep the place stocked and organized. The fried chicken was impressive! Also had baked chicken, Mac n cheese, cheese n grits, green beans, black eyed peas and seasoned brown rice. For sure would stop back here when I have a short layover.

Waited for the restaurant to open at 6:00 in the morning. Stood in line with other people and gave up at 6:22 because nobody had the code or card to open the registers. Meanwhile people that were waiting watching the hot food sitting there gave up like I did. Sad way to run a "restaurant".

This is G. Garvin's restaurant and they practice social distancing. First time here and the breakfast was great. They serve a hefty amount of eggs as well. My husband and I had the special, which we should've shared. We both had scrambled eggs. His with cheese and mine, plain. I had pan sausage and he had bacon. I don't eat breakfast meat, so he had my meat. I had home fries and my husband had grits. We were both full and didn't eat all of our food. For our drinks, we had fruit punch. Next time we will share breakfast.

The beautiful cashier took such great care of me. She was very patient and helpful. I loved my baked Mac n cheese and the shrimp.

Mac and cheese was amazing. Shrimp had good flavor but a little over cooked. I don't usually like green beans but theirs were very tasty.

The food was excellent. The service even better. I was there during the morning breakfast rush. The food was well presented and well plated. And tasted great! They truly had a variety of hearty breakfast foods. Definitely stopping at Low Country G. Garvin every departure in Atlanta.

I thought the baked rosemary chicken was delicious on top of simple. The brown rice had a strong pepper taste but it worked. I was a little set back by the bacon cheese grits. The chunks of bacon were tasty but the chunks really did add to the cheese grits overall. This is airport food; it was warm not hot and exhibited some effects you expect from dishes prepared and left in the dishes on a heating plate. But....it's still damn good and wins out over almost every other airport restaurant I have visited. Shame it's in the food court but still very reasonably priced as well! I am going four stars because it's classy and wonderful given the airport food location. If it wasn't in the airport food court, three to three and half

As another reviewer said, bacon and cheese grits (cheese optional) at an airport? How could I resist! I added cheese eggs and orange juice. Total was a whopping $16! I know not to buy minute maid O.J. for $3.50 next time. But the food was good. The eggs were scrambled hard, but you can order soft scramble and they will make it to good. Overall very pleased with my airport breakfast.
