    a red and white sign in a restaurant
    Marissa P.

    Okay so this was my third visit to Atlanta + I know wings are very popular in the city, the last time I visited someone told me I could never go wrong with American Deli so me + my friends decided to give it a try! I definitely didn't realize was the original location (until I actually read the sign, right now, in the picture I added lol) but I'm excited to know that my first time trying them was here!! It's located inside the mall + when I went it wasn't busy at all! Normally I'm a little indecisive or I like to ask the workers what's popular or what their favorite is, but I knew what I came for so when it was my turn to order I was ready to go! I got the 10 piece wing combo with 5 buffalo + 5 lemon pepper wet wings + yaaalllll, SO GOOD I'm not the biggest fan of crinkle fries either, but adding that lemon pepper seasoning definitely made them worth eating lol Side note, when my food was ready the worker opened the box and I thought it was just to show me the food, but she asked if I wanted salt or the lemon pepper seasoning + at first I said no; but then I thought about it + asked if the fries are already salted + she said no so I added a bit of the seasoning salt as well as the lemon pepper seasoning. After I tried a couple fries, I definitely went back + added more This was my first time having lemon pepper wet wings + I really enjoyed them! Medium buffalo is always my go to + those were bomb as well. The wings were a good size + they definitely gave a generous amount of fries. When I tell y'all I ate every last one, I'm not lying! Lol My friend got the honey garlic wings + they said they really liked them! Unfortunately I don't live in ATL but I'll definitely be back to American Deli every time I visit! Service was good + food was great so this location gets a 5 star rating from me! Thank you American Deli + team

    Chicken philly and 10 medium

    This is the original American Deli location. I remember coming here as a kid back in the day. I'm usually a 10 piece hot kinda girl, but today I was feeling like a chicken philly. So I just ordered them both....no judgement please! This location is always busy being that it's located in the mall and there's not many options in this food court. However, the food still comes out pretty fast. The wings are still just as good as the first day I ordered them. Perfect size, flavor, and heat. The chicken philly is one of my favorites as well...plentiful and nice and juicy. Although the bread is so soft and delicious, i wish it was on a hoagie roll to prevent all the goodness from spilling over and out. The peach juice is always good... healthy people beware. This beverage is probably loaded in sugar like Kool-aid! But it's sooooo good!

    The wings were decent but the American Deli in Conyers is my favorite place to go. South Dekalb mall American Deli. The ladies at the register seem to not really enjoy there job. The food were okay. In the mall it was customer screaming and yelling at each other as if there were about to fight. I'm soo good on ever going back to this mall.

    This place has had me in a chokehold since my very first visit. Definitely a hidden gem, but those…read morewho know KNOWWWW wtfgo. Heard about them from coworkers and decided to go check them out for myself. Despite being named "Wings n Grill" they have soooooo much more to offer. My usual order is the 6pc and fish combo. Comes with 6 wings, fries, 2pc catfish (NICE SIZED!!) and a drink. The catfish is truly CHEF'S KISS!! Cooked to perfection The wings are also a missile! My favorite flavor combo is the Hot Honey Lemon Pepper. I've also tried Ranch (fried regular, then tossed in dry rub) and Honey Garlic+Teriyaki, all delicious but the HHLP are number one for me. The options are endless. Even the fries are always fried just right, golden brown and crispy. The only negative about the place is their mix of lemonade,fruit and peach punches. To me, they're weak and all taste like sugar water. Always find myself having to ad something to it, or opting to just get a fountain drink. S/O to the the guy taking the orders (the white guy that's always there). He's great and keeps things running smooth in there. If you're ever nearby in the area and you hungry, stop in there and treat yourself to something BIGBACK and deliciouss!

    The food is amazing I've tried a lot of things from there so id like to share my thoughts.first off…read morethe wings are amazing they are the perfect size and crunchy with good sauce (depends on sauce) if you are thinking about going id recommend their honey hot flavor there fries are good you just need to go at the counter where there is seasonings and add some salt or whatever you want on your fries or wings their fried rice is good but nor the best there yum yum sauce that comes with it is immaculate the Philly cheesesteaks are so good you would think cheesesteak is in the name of the restaurant for the drinks i recommend mixing fruit punch with lemonade overall best wing spot in Atlanta also they be giving extra wingsssss!!!

    SERVICE Service was fast and friendly for a Friday evening…read morerush...seating is up to your choosing -- indoor or outdoor. The staff was efficient despite having been swept up understaffed with a late night 20+ party. They got the order in quickly, and food came out faster than expected. No issues with accuracy! Our waters were refilled quickly despite the rush and everything arrived together and hot. Great for a quick, casual stop when you don't want to wait long. FOOD We stopped in for a quick Friday dinner and ordered the burger, brisket dip with waffle fries, and a tendies basket. The burger was juicy and cooked to order (medium rare as asked!) with a nice toasted bun. The brisket dip was tender and flavorful, and the sweet waffle fries came out hot and crispy too. The tendies basket was solid: well-seasoned, not greasy, and a good portion for sharing. Overall, the hits were the brisket dip and waffle fries; the burger and tendies were reliable. Craving a greasy comfort food spot for the day, and this was pretty darn solid for the price and friendly fast service! AMBIANCE The vibe is relaxed and neighborhood-friendly with an outdoor area with standing room and the TV. The music can be a bit loud for overall taste, but hey it's a lively spot for a Friday night....a buzz is definitely obvious and great for drinks or low-key hangout...and the space feels busy without being chaotic. If you're looking for a quick, comfortable place to grab a bite (have a solid no frills burger) and unwind, it fits the bill!

    Ugh, they are closed for the time being. The building they are in did not renew their lease…read more Stupidity! Tried this place out for the first time a few weeks ago. It's adjacent to a parking deck and small. Very cozy, though! The menu is simple and it was a one-man show that day (other staff had left due to closing). LOVED IT! The coleslaw was really good and the Sammie was probably one of the freshest I've had. We had to wait a bit due to it being just him but worth the wait. I did the hot chick ... yeah, I can get away with saying that ... and it was huge, overflowing, tender and fresh. This is a SOLID spot. I was told they'd be re-opening nearby and I hope that's the case. They were BUSY as well so it's clearly not a customer issue. Check them out when they re-open. Simple and amazing!

    The sweet potato fries ALONE... Makes this 5 stars. Ok... Sweet potato fries AND the comeback…read moresauce. Mmm... And the ATL chick. Ok listen, this spot is in the cut wedged between Bank of America and the back of Cornerstone Bank. It has about 7 booths and 4 tables (mostly 2 tops). Customer service is warm and friendly, it always feels like you've known the guys working for years. Now the food...O.M.G. My favorite is the ATL chick which is juicy fried chicken breast tossed in buffalo sauce and... ANNNND... lemon pepper. Cmon. We're in ATL. What other way is there?! Then it has ranch drizzled on top and dressed how you want... lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle. Even the bread is yummy. The sweet potato fries are crispy and airy and go great with the comeback sauce which is whatever smoky heavenly concoction they came up with as a sauce. Listen if you're in downtown Decatur... Do yourself a favor and get here! There is street parking available and you can pay by app or at the meter. It's about $2 for an hour. They also serve salads, other sandwiches, and breakfast. Small collection of beer, wine, and cocktails.

It may not be fair to judge an establishment by its patrons, but Mary and Peter should be banned. It was clear they are regulars. I still don't know if they were over-served or just dickheads everyday. But if I wanted to hear someone sing badly, I'll go find a karaoke spot. These two were just full of "pull my finger" jokes and other obnoxious wit. I did consider just walking out. Now for the rest of the review: The menu is fine, but dinner menu is served on a loose paper, as are the drink menu but it's on a clipboard with multiple pages. I opted for a hamburger with waffle fries. I ordered Med-well, but received Med-rare. The bottom bun was disintegrating as it was saturated in grease. The waffle fries are solid and two people ordered the Irish Nachos to-go while I was there so they may be the star. My fries were served with a mayo-hot sauce mixture that was just okay. I really wished my experience was better because there is so much here I normally would like: local, neighborhood dive, music, tv. But this was a one-and-done for me. Also, the bar height is awkward when seated. I'm 6'0 and felt like a kid sitting at a bar where I have to raise my elbows.

    Good southern spot!…read more My friend came by here for a snack, and they did not disappoint. There is a good amount of parking for Hattie B's, and there is a pay to park lot next door as well. We got the pimento Mac and cheese cups, some miller lites, and the peach cobbler. The Mac and cheese was amazing, definitely a must try. The peach cobbler was good but the filling tasted like it was canned and the crust wasn't crispy. Next time I come by, I'd definitely want to try their banana pudding. The employees working were super nice and helpful. They were quick to take our orders and brought out our food very fast. I also liked that they had a combination of indoor and outdoor seating, this seems like a fun place to grab a drink with friends.
