Grouper Sandwich and slaw
Gene G.

- Pro tip don't even bother asking about the slushie of the week. It doesn't exist. Been there around 20 times over the few years and they never have it.

Menu
Flacko F.

I got a grouper sandwich and it was great. The french fries were amazing crispy and soft at the same time. My friend got the fried platter which he said it was OK. But the breaker bowl was amazing had so much flavor and was very refreshing. The chicken Caesar wrap is a bit spicy not sure if it's too much black pepper being used, but it's OK. The service at this location was all right. But as far as the seating area was nice clean, and it was an open area with a lot of room.

Chicken Tendies
Chandler R.

This has always been one of my favorite spots in Atlanta and it still is. The vibes are off the chart. There's a massive indoor/outdoor patio right on the beltline. There's also an indoor dining room with retro aesthetic. Their chicken tendies are too die for! And the fries are perfectly seasoned. They do an all-day HH a couple of days a week with 6 dollar margs. Hard to beat!

I had been wanting to check out breaker breaker for a while and finally got a chance to check them out. Such a cool spot located on the beltline. I ordered the blackened grouper sandwich and a fish taco my girl ordered the fried shrimp plate. Everything was amazing. I know there hype around another popular restaurants blackened grouper sandwich (iykyk) but the one at breaker breaker is the best I've had in Atlanta. Big fan of this restaurant and will definitely be back. You're welcome!

Boiled peanuts
Steven S.

Really good take on seafood. Quirky, fun atmosphere and proximity to the Beltline makes it not only an easy place to access but a fun place to people watch. Happy hour was in full swing when we visited, and it was hopping. Try the boiled peanuts!

Chicken bucket with biscuits
Joy C.

Come closer, let me give you a lil life advice *whispers* get the fried chicken on Soul Food Sunday! Ok back to your regularly scheduled review, Breaker Breaker serves buckets of fried chicken on Sundays, and you're seriously missing out if you don't make your way down there soon! The crispy, juicy, mixed pieces are what KFC wishes they could be on a good day. The Mac is Creamy and the collards are smoky with a hint of sweetness. I'm sure the sweet tea is good but I opted for a margarita instead. Everything is served by friendly staff in a fun casual atmosphere. If I ever don't feel like cooking on a Sunday, you know where to find me!

Captain's Platter Salad
Kennedy S.

3.5/5 Came in on a Friday night and it was busy but service was attentive. Atmosphere: The set up is cute and the music is great. There's a walk up order station & limited service walk up bar. Theres a full bar upstairs and seating with full service inside. THE FLIES THOUGH. We spent our entire meal waving our hands so none would land on our cups or food. I know its summer in the south so bugs are a given but maybe large fans to keep them away Food: We got the Captains Platter and split it along with a Caesar salad. You probably want your own meals. I wish they specified what the "gulf fish" is but I also could have asked. It was firm and a bit dry. The shrimp was fiiiiire, their fries are fiiiiire,the hushpuppies were good. We ended up ordering more fries after finishing our meal. Would try again

Enjoyed my first visit to Breaker Breaker. Great vibes and good food! Decided to check it out on a Friday night and it wasn't too busy. (We did go around 6). We sat outside on the lower patio. The set up is pretty cool. The patio you walk up to order and the inside you are served. The upstairs (Florida man) is more of a bar feel. (I got Miami cool kids vibe up there). But Plenty of seating everywhere. We ordered the peel and eat shrimp and the blackened grouper Sammy. Really enjoyed the shrimp. The cocktail sauce was delightful. Loved the grouper sandwich. The slaw definitely goes well on the sandwich. The only negative feedback I had was their flys and mosquitos everywhere. Probably not their responsibility but it's definitely coming from the natural area between the restaurant and the belt like. And doesn't help that the trash was pretty full. Other than that complaint everything was great. Also, love that they had Sierra Nevada on draft. You Can never go wrong with that!

Boozy slushy
Ashley C.

So glad I came here! Loved the vibe--I really felt like I was on the beach lol. Breaker Breaker is located near the Renoldsytown side of the belt-line. Youll have to find a residential/street parking space. When you walk up, the bar/window is for drinks only, but if you walk further down, there's a separate window to order food. I ordered the grouper sandwich, fries, and the seasonal boozy slushy, which was lime, ginger, and cherry (I think). Cashier was nice and even let me sample the slushy before buying! The food was good! Fries were different but well seasoned and hot. Grouper was a good size too. There were fans rotating from the side of the building, so there was a nice breeze. Afterwards, you can take a nice walk on the beltline. I can't wait to come back to try the vegan crab cakes and the oysters!

Seasonal Boozy Slushy
Ada C.

Breaker Breaker has a fan out of me. Decided to try for lunch as Hubby and I were craving seafood. Breaker Breaker is located off of the Eastside beltline (NOT the Ponce City Market area) in a residential area so parking is very limited. We were able to locate a street spot. Once you arrive you have the option to be served inside or order at the window for patio seating where food will be brought out to you. I ordered the fried fish tacos with the seasonal boozy slushy and my Husband had the boiled peanuts with the Fried Fish Captain's platter. There's a water station to serve yourself, wish it was ice water since we sat on the patio. Patio seating gives you the option to sit away from dogs or with your dog/amongst dogs. Love that each outdoor section on the patio had an overhead fan. Breaker Breaker also had great tunes playing with a friendly staff. I'm obsessed with the boozy slushy, great flavor and so refreshing. My Husband enjoyed the boiled peanuts but wished the cayenne pepper was tossed throughout the peanuts. I got to try some of his fried fish that was seasoned and breaded very well. It was paired with hand cut chips that still had a slight French fry thickness and texture to them & were also seasoned very well. My fried fish tacos were pretty tasty in flavor but very heavy on the slaw, would've loved just a bit more fish within the taco. Overall I can't wait to return for good seafood and people watching.

If you're looking for a laid-back outdoor experience, this is the place to be. Just to give you a quick overview: there are two sections--yes, two--one for dog lovers, and the other for those who may enjoy dogs but prefer not to be surrounded by them while dining. However, I did notice someone breaking the rule, so I'm not sure how strictly this policy is enforced! There are also two sections for food and bar service. If you're ordering food and prefer the patio option, you'll need to order at the counter and then grab a seat on the patio. If you're planning to enjoy your meal at the bar, you can order both food and drinks directly at the bar. If you're having a drink--whether it's a cocktail, beer, or specialty drink--and want to enjoy it on the patio, you simply order at the bar and then head back to your seat on the patio. I ordered the shrimp platter, and it was seasoned to perfection--crispy with excellent flavor! My habanero beverage was also delicious. My only slight concern was the lack of diversity, though this could have been due to the time I visited. Given that it's Atlanta, I was expecting to see a broader mix of cultures. That being said, the demographics of certain neighborhoods can sometimes result in a more homogenous crowd. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend it.

Cup of Gumbo.
Liselle B.

Who would have thought we could get delicious, fresh-tasting seafood in Atlanta right outside Cabbagetown, but here we are! Stopped by and ordered a Cup of Gumbo, Charbroiled Oysters, Blackened Grouper Sandwich, and a Gulf Fish Fried Platter to eat. For cocktails we had the Vaya Con Dios and the Billy Big Rigger. Every single dish was delicious and perfectly executed; I personally love the way this place cuts their fries! I enjoyed the cocktails, especially the slight heat mixed with passion fruit flavor in the Vaya Con Dios. Minus 1 star because I would have preferred if they had seats with back at the bar instead of stools, but I get they may have been going for that retro diner vibe. However, that won't stop me from going back because the food was too good!

Parice W.

Giving Breaker Breaker 5 stars despite the fact that they brought my husband the wrong meal not once but twice. He ordered the blackened shrimp po boy & they brought him a grouper sandwich first then brought him a fried shrimp po boy. He was a bit nervous eating it b/c he doesn't tolerate fried foods well but he felt bad returning it so he ate it anyway. We all enjoyed our food then headed to the rooftop where we encountered the most fantastic bartender. The atmosphere up there is 10/10 and so is the service. We can't wait to return!

This was an odd food run. Probably the oddest I've had in ATL. Don't get me wrong, the sandwiches…read morethemselves were aight. Emphasis on aight. Some better than others. They're def on the smaller side but quite economical so grabbing multiple is easy. However the interaction with the staff and the handling of my order threw me completely off and unfortunately dampened the actual experience of the food. For someone who had ordered online and already paid, it took WAY too long for me to get food that was already prepared and sitting on the counter. I walked in and it was almost like no one wanted my money. One of the staff passed by me to go outside and ran into me but didn't address it at all. Not even a "whoops". The young man behind the bar was casually talking to another customer who was clearly on their way out. No problem, until it became a problem. I stood there for several minutes not knowing whether to interrupt their convo, and once I realized I wouldn't be addressed otherwise I decided to just butt in. I work in the service industry and truly could never imagine leaving a new customer hanging like that. Mind you, I wasn't even in a rush and was enjoying my rainy day... which should let you know how ridiculous this interaction was. To make matters worse, they literally just threw the sandwiches in a paper bag. I don't mind minimalist packaging. But this was just disrespectful lol. All the sandwiches were just mashed together and deformed and unsightly once unwrapped. Unfortunately I don't remember any of them because they just weren't memorable. The interaction in the restaurant didn't make it any better. I've seen comments that some of the young (mostly white) "hipster" staff can be oddly passive aggressive to certain clientele... usually I don't agree with those views but man that day really made me think they had a point. First and last time. No bueno.

Fred's Meat & Bread delivers big on flavor! The Korean ribeye cheesesteak was the star of the show,…read morefeaturing tender, flavorful ribeye paired with that perfect Korean-inspired flavor profile. Every bite was packed with savory goodness, and the combination of textures and flavors made this cheesesteak stand out from the ordinary. The truffle Parmesan fries were just as impressive, crispy, well-seasoned, and loaded with that rich truffle flavor and savory Parmesan finish. They were the perfect complement to the cheesesteak and honestly good enough to stand on their own. If you appreciate quality ingredients, creative flavor combinations, and comfort food done right, Fred's Meat & Bread deserves a spot on your list. Both dishes delivered, and the overall experience made this a five-star visit. That Korean ribeye cheesesteak alone is reason enough to come back!

Fred's is widely known to be the "best" cheesesteak in Atlanta. It has many accolades including…read morebeing on the Michelin guide. 1) Korean Ribeye Cheesesteak: - PROS: It was packed and filled to the brim with ribeye that was nicely cut with an even cheese dispersion. I loved the caramelized jalepeno slices since they added it beautiful hint of spicy sweetness to the dish. The bread has a nice chew and it does not get soggy fast. - CONS: Not that special. I dont know why it's "korean" since it tasted like a normal cheesesteak but with a few jalapenos. I also wish they added in more jalapenos (I got like 3). 2) Garlic Fries with Ranch: - PROS: Very nice texture with a crispy outside and fluffy inside that is not too dense. The flavor comes from the garlic mince that is on top. The ranch is like a mixture of an aioli and tartar sauce (I think they make it in house, correct me if I'm wrong). - CONS: Inconsistent texture as some of the fries were dense but a few had that good hollow crisp bite. Quite oily too. Overall, I enjoyed the cheesesteak but would probably skip the fries next time. I do believe it is good especially the bread. I don't think it is worth all the hype it gets, but it is good.

I was deciding between the breakfast plate and the avocado toast, and the server told me the avocado toast was amazing so I rolled with it as I do love an avocado toast. I will say, I was a little thrown off that the avocado toast was not toasted. It was a sourdough bread, but soft, not crispy, and had not been through the toaster. Not sure if that was an accident, but I definitely would've preferred a crunch underneath the avocado mash. The egg was cooked through and not runny. Also would've preferred a runny egg- unsure what normal protocol is here but no one asked me so I assumed wrongly perhaps it would be a bit runny. Overall, had good flavor, just really needed a crunchy toast underneath to support the avocado IMO. Would come back and try some other stuff for sure despite my first meal here not being a knock out.

My sister and I split the Gaucho and the Yellowfin Tuna Melt (~$20 each). Pricey for sandwiches, but the quality is there.

It was warm, and that's all this sandwich delivered. The porchetta was dry, chewy and bland. It was so bad that I didn't eat it all. And the pepperoni and soppressata didn't add any spice to the sandwich. This is the first time I have ever been disappointed in soppressata! I thought the pepperoni mayo would add some kick as well and maybe it would have if there had been more than a half-tablespoon of it. And the bread was not fresh! I could have cried over this. The cost is outrageous for this kind of quality. On the upside, the service remains top tier and the space is still welcoming. But I won't be back.

The salmon was a great portion, the rice was amazing, the green sauce was delicious, the picked veggies added a wonderful crunch, and the roasted tomato added a silky smoothness.

So this is a Mediterranean grill inside of Ponce City Market. When you get to Ponce City Market you have plenty of parking options but all of them are going to be paid. The last time I went was on a weekday and I was there for between four and six hours and I paid probably no more than $12. Just keep that in mind. I was walking around just trying to see things that I haven't done before as far as restaurants and I ended up here and it was not a bad choice. The people at the front were pretty cool and were very friendly so that was a positive plus. The food that I had was good and I would consider trying something else from there. Koobidch sandwich (with fries) - so the sandwich itself came on a piece of bread that was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The beef inside the sandwich had a sauce over it that was pretty good and savory. Now I just want to say that it did have a sauce that came with it but I don't know if it was for my sandwich. But whatever sauce that was was pretty darn good. It fit on the fries and helped the sandwich along as well. I would get the sandwich again but there are a couple of other ones there that I would try first. The French fries are really good. They came with a sack of fries and they were very well seasoned and super crispy. Overall it does have my intention to try it again at some point in time, even though there are a lot of restaurants to make it through, but it was a good experience.
