This spot has quickly become a favorite for hanging out with friends. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a casual setup that makes it easy to relax and enjoy your time. Ordering is simple and convenient, and everything runs smoothly without feeling rushed. The menu offers a great variety, so there's something for everyone no matter what you're in the mood for. The food itself was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying, with portions generous enough to enjoy later as well. Everything felt well put together, from the quality to the overall experience. Definitely a place worth coming back to again and again. read more

Came here wanted to order a cheese pizza with Alfredo sauce instead of marinara, as marinara upsets my stomach. The cashier charges me for a chicken Alfredo pizza, I said wait you're charging me the price of a pizza with chicken to change the sauce and I'm vegetarian, He said yes Alfredo is more expensive than marinara, cool. Guest lost, and you can lend your negative customer service experience for another patron. Cheers read more

Pretty good pasta! A little hole in the wall that is decent for lunch. Service was pretty fast but the atmosphere was empty.

Great spot for lunch on the GSU campus. The prices have stayed pretty reasonable (especially for downtown) and the food is good. They also have a large seating area, so it's a nice place to sit and study for a while. read more

I love the pizza. I love the service. And the ambiance is chill. In my opinion I think it's pretty reasonable price especially since I'm the meat lovers pizza they load it with a bunch of meat. The place is also halal so that's a 1 up. read more

Me and my friends absolutely love this place, the food was so good and I still had leftovers to take home. We ordered at the little tablets and then around 15-20 minutes later we got our food. Cute little place with a variety of options. read more

Omg this was my first time here and I've been on campus for over two years and have been wanting to go and finally went and wow I'm so glad I did!! It's so cute and cozy on the inside and the service was so friendly!! I got the side Alfredo and garlic bread because I'm on a budget and it was incredibly affordable and it's a pretty big portion too. They were both so flavorful and I'll definitely be back to try the other options on the menu!! read more

BrickStone Cafe - Side Alfredo pasta and garlic bread - Italian Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I'm not a fan of atlanta and tend to stay away from the city due to traffic, but I will make the drive to come back for their bread bowls. The bread bowls have cheese melted in them that adds flavor to the soup you order. Their bread bowls were even soft enough to enjoy after you were done with the soup. I also ordered the Tomato basil pasta and for $8 dollars I had a meal for lunch and enough to save for dinner. Not only that, the flavors were delicious. They don't skimp on the chicken neither, I had nice large chunks of chicken mix with the pasta. The owner was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed, since he was the only one there it did take about 20 minutes to get our food but it was worth it and honestly we ordered a lot. If you don't mind old buildings and walking down some semi sketch roads do yourself a favor and check them out. read more

Why, hello cute little place I somehow have been walking by for years now without walking in. Why haven't I walked into you before? Gosh, I'm glad I did today. You're small but charming. I like your window bar seating in front where you can people watch the folks on Broad. But I especially like your stairs up to the cute little loft with a similar bar setting that lets you look out over the deli counter and fellow patrons. That's where we sat today. (psst! there are other little tables up here too.) I have a feeling you're more of a take-away sort of place based on space alone, but at lunchtime on a weekday, you were still fine and we weren't over-crowded. Your food is fresh and scrumptious. I chose your lunch trio special which was a cup of soup, a half a sandwich, and a choice of a pasta and Caesar salad all for only $9. (There's the lunch duo option of two of the choices for only $7 as well.) Wow! What a deal! And SO much food. I chose your French dip, tomato basil soup and Caesar salad. My friend had your roast beef on a croissant, French onion soup, and Caesar salad. Heck, yes, we sampled each other's food and everything you have here is so very good. Well done, little BrickStone Cafe. If you're downtown for work, play or school, definitely stop in and give them a try. Like I mentioned, I've walked by so many times, mainly because it's easy to miss. Just keep an eye out for the big "Majestic Shoe Repairing" sign (that's hard to miss!) and BrickStone will be right there underneath it. With a variety of salads, pasta salads, pastas, soups, sandwiches hot and cold --even bread bowls for your soup! -- I'll definitely be back to try out so many other offerings. read more

It's a cheap spot that students frequent. But expect the quality to reflect the price. Tried this place twice and both were alright, I'm not too picky with what I eat just gotta be edible and somewhat tasty. Chicken alfredo was saucy and I kind of enjoyed. Turkey melt was so messy but pretty good. read more

No complaints here! I really enjoyed my meal. I honestly believe the bread alone could get a separate (5 star) review. It was that good. There were plenty of options on the menu, so selecting something good was not a problem. The sauce was the right consistency and it stuck to the noodle. It wasn't that watery mess that splashed everywhere. Also, there was a good amount of chicken. They weren't stingy with it! The seasoning wasn't bad although I do enjoy a more robust profile than what was present at this particular dish. There was a little bit of a wait for the food, but I didn't see that as a problem. Considering the sandwiches are made to order, it wouldn't do well to have the food sitting under a heat lamp all morning waiting for the next customer. That's just...no. And fortunately, that's not the case here. I'm looking forward to trying more items on the menu. The prices are affordable with most items coming in under $10. Further, the portions are such that one meal should be sufficient although obviously, YMMV. I'll be back and, as was the case with Cafe Delight*, I'll be sure to bring my coworkers. *i work in an office with at least twenty people and we have all of downtime to choose from as far as meals AND I'm a student at GSU. So yeah, a recommendation carries a little weight. read more

I read the reviews and still gave this place a try and it was DISGUSTING! Idk if it was the sauce , cheese or a combination of both but I'm extremely disappointed. Luckily it was only $8 because it went straight into the trash. read more

BrickStone Cafe - Chicken Alfredo - Italian Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Revisited again today. Give it another 5 stars. Luna was a great help in letting me decide on a sandwich. I chose the vignette balsamic chicken sandwich. 3 minutes later there was my food. It was a very large good sized sandwich. filled me up pretty easy. And it tasted amazing! The price. The spot. The food. The time. It's a perfect spot for lunch in between classes. Highly recommend it. Music is very pleasant as well. read more

My friend and I got the tomato soup. It was amazing in fact it was my second time going back for it. So it was all good until I found a chunk of chicken in the soup... my friend also got tomato soup and she was raised vegan. hadn't eaten meat a day in her life. Until now. Thanks a lot! read more

This place is almost easy to miss and what a shame that would be! Brickstone Cafe is affordable and delicious! And there is so much food. The people who work there are sweet, and the food came out relatively quick. One thing was that some of the turkey melt we got was very cold-- how does that happen because the cheese was melted on top and the bread was warm? The parts that weren't were absolutely delicious but definitely a star off because that was an unpleasant surprise. However, we did go on a relatively unbusy time period (some sort of student break), so it's possible it was a one time issue? Otherwise, place was both affordable, generous, and delicious. read more

Best food on Broad street. Reasonably priced as well. The staff is very nice and you will receive your food in a timely manner. The food is all prepared when you order it. The French dip is a staple sandwich for this restaurant. All of their pasta is good; my favorite being the chicken Alfredo. If you are looking for good food and good service this is the place to go in between classes or for lunch. read more

Anyone who Knows me, Knows that I love a good clean and healthy meal. That is the OPPOSITE of taste experienced here at BrickStone Cafe. I came to dine in for lunch on June 5th and was one visit away from Grady Hospital. That is, if I did not know how raw roast beef looked. I was eager to try this roast beef sandwich for $7.50 that did not include a drink nor side item. However, all places price their items differently. Thats fair enough. Moreover, I later found the manager was also the chef. This gentleman prepared this sandwich for me in about 6 mins. Two songs on my phone played and my order was up. I was appalled to find raw roast beef, cold-un melted cheese before me. Before approaching the kitchen with this concern, i checked my sources online in regards to cooked roast beef. The beed before me, was DEFINITELY UN COOKED. The chef deliberately prepared this sandwich without cooking the roast beef. When i approached him with this concern, he stated "you think you so smart, do u want it warmed again or not?" I said "sir, allow me to take the meat and cheese off and u can warm that up." He "immediately reached for the entree and stated he would take care of it." The kitchen is clearly visible in this place. I watched him place the entire sandwich (including the bread, sauces, and tomatoes) in a cooking sheet. At this point, I said "sir, it is ok!" "I would just like a refund." He stated "No, I do not give refunds! U can have it made over and THAT IS IT or u can leave." I was not going anywhere. I called the cops. I realized after the cops arrived that this was not a criminal act. In this event, I successfully disputed my concern and charge with my bank that ended in a reimbursement and a REMINDER that YELP reviews help others around the world, so why not keep my colleagues and community safe with sharing my experience. Hope this helps. My best regards, Eugene! read more

As a GSU student, there have been times when I crave pasta on campus, and there was nothing close by. This place was the answer to my prayers. They have pasta, hot & cold sandwiches, soups, salads, and hot stuffed pizzas. Their bread is made fresh - in house. My favorite is the chicken alfredo pasta, and the toasted turkey sandwich. They serve ample portions and the prices are very reasonable, cheaper than most restaurants on the street. $6 for a Sandwich, and $7 Pasta... you get more bang for your buck. A smoked turkey melt, french dip, or a pesto chicken balsamic sandwich, doesn't compare to your regular sub at Subway or Rueben's deli. BrickStone Cafe is savory, fresh, and satisfying. It's exactly what Broad St was missing. read more

The guy standing on the sidewalk with the chicken and Alfredo sauce is the reason why I tried this place. I immediately went in and ask for the the chicken fettuccine Alfredo. At the time of this review they have only been open for about a month and their food score was 100A. The interior was bright and clean and a nice loft upstairs. The food on display look really good and fresh. The food was delicious and the bread was warm and soft. I'll definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

It's clean, it's hip, and it's nice and quiet. A great place to take someone out or chill upstairs. The place is relatively new, but I was looking for a snack, and I saw some french dips being advertised outside. I was pulled in with the dip and cheese glazed bread; I anticipated a small portion, but boy did it surprise me when it was a giant sandwich. The dip is soup-like with a bold and memorable taste. Simply biting into the sandwich is enough to bring an euphoric wave of food-induced satisfaction over your starving stomach. Best consumed with chocolate milk on the cheap! The prices are very fair and the owner is friendly. Give it a try! read more

"Italian" cafe in downtown Atlanta. The cashier was friendly, but the food is basically Subway, but served in environmentally unfriendly styrofoam. Is it 1999 or 2019? Styrofoam is illegal in progressive cities. My "chicken rosemary" sandwich, served on wheat after I requested white, was edible, but there was no taste of rosemary, just a heavy taste of balsamic -- perhaps they made the wrong sandwich? There is no bathroom or sink available for customers here, despite a large sit-down area, so bring hand sanitizer and don't drink too much water, I guess? A bit ridiculous to not even have a bathroom for customers. read more

Sooo, they put my food in the microwave. I've only been here a few times but, I don't remember my food EVER being put in the microwave. I walked in at 5:20 (they close at 6pm) and I was the only guest in the restaurant. I ordered a shrimp alfredo, tomato basil soup, and garlic bread. The soup came out of a pan in their hot table and the bread came out of the convection oven behind him. However, for my alfredo, he placed the pasta in the to-go tray, spooned the sauce over it, and popped it in the microwave. (I didn't see if he put the shrimp over it before or after he put it in the microwave.) Now, the shrimp alfredo was only $10 so, I wasn't expecting superior quality but, whether I'm paying $10 or $10,000, I don't want you to microwave my fucking food. Overall, my food wasn't terrible but I doubt I'll come back after this. read more

Huge fan--I have eaten there 3 out of 5 days this week. Their balsamic chicken sandwich is the "go-to". Combination lunch is a great deal. Good food, good service, good price--what more can you ask for lunch? read more

I'm strictly reviewing their Alfredo. Couldn't taste anything but the overwhelming cheese sauce, would love the spices to come through. You do get a lot for the money you pay though. As a pasta enthusiast I wouldn't come back for it though. read more

BrickStone Cafe - Turkey melt was amazing - Italian Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

For the most part, the prices here is on par with the other restaurants in this area. The setting is unique, offering a upstairs area to dine. The staff is very friendly and consistent. Most of the food is freshly prepared. I highly recommend their pizzas. They are better then Rosa's IMO. The chicken cesar salad is okay. I feel like it's overpriced for what you get. It has a weird texture to me.This place can be crowded around lunch time. Expect a 10-15 minute wait during peak times. If you do decide to order the pizza, make sure that you have enough time to wait for it because it's cooked to order. If you are looking for more of a gourmet style pizza or just good all-around Italian food, this is one of the best options in the area. read more

HORRIBLE. This was the WORST chicken Alfredo I have ever had. I went to this cafe because it's the building right next to my last class (GSU) and it was the worst mistake I have made next too Cafe Hotwing (right in front of it) Cashier insisted I try the " garlic bread" which was plain Italian bread warmed in the microwave with butter and light light garlic sprinkled lmao. But seriously STAY AWAY don't be fooled by the good reviews like I was. FYI $2 more for broccoli. read more

wish I had taken a picture of my food, but oh well. I've been to this place before and the pasta is the least likeable thing on the menu. Anyhow this review is for the pizza. I ordered the veggie pizza the first time, and it was amazing. The crust was crunchy, buttery, and soooo good. I went back the next day and ordered it again with a plain cheese pizza for my sister. They were both delicious. I'd also like to mention that you can get pesto sauce added on the pizza for free, which adds a great flavor. Unfortunately they haven't posted that they have pizza on their menu, so make sure you ask and order it. You won't regret it. read more

Food took more than 30 mins. They didn't even make it until they asked us again for what we ordered.

BrickStone offers yummy food at an affordable price. Truly the best place to get pasta/Italian on Georgia State campus. The hours are similar to other restaurants around broad street, so not late night dinners. There is pretty much always a line when I go in, however the staff works through it pretty quickly. There is seating inside and outside of restaurant, and it can get pretty noisy during the day. Overall one of my favorite place. read more

OK seriously this place is such a gem! I use to pass it everyday and never stumbled in here until recently and I'm so glad I did. It's right downtown off of broad street so GSU students consider this a PSA. They have awesome lunch combos that will keep you AND your wallet full. A half sandwich (which is huge btw, think a 6" at subway) plus half salad or soup for $7!? Sold. It takes a few minutes because the sub's are made and toasted fresh but its no more then 5 or 6 minutes. I personally don't eat meat so I always get the roasted veggie sandwich with a basil sauce instead of mayo (its amazing every time) but I've seen their turkey melts and they look divine!! And to top it all off the staff is extremely sweet and they put love into their food, you can taste it. read more

Food is really really good. All the soups are amazing and the fettuccine sauce is great. Also, it is very clean in there and I love how it's like a two story cafe. read more

This place has fresh, made to order, but quick food. I had a hot sandwich with chicken breast, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. It was made very well and definitely larger than what I expected, because their prices aren't high. They have a lot of sides to choose from including kettle cooked chips and house made pasta. This place is really nice inside, especially in comparison to other places on Broad Street. They even have a loft area to sit upstairs and free wifi. read more

I got the chicken pesto fettuccine. Pesto sauce is sour ?! Not suppose to be so sour .. Tasted like k was eating vinegar. The noodle is over cooked. Their crossaint is good. $6 for the sandwich is kinda expensive when it doesn't come with a side.. And they only gave 2 pieces of thin deli slice of roast beef. Too cheap but I guess you get what you pay for. The pasta was cheap for $7.. But do not get the pesto! It's not real -.- read more

The place has pretty good sandwiches, but they are nothing special. Didn't try the pasta, so that might be awesome or awful I don't know. The Tomato Basil soup was my favorite. FYI they DON'T have a restroom! read more

Brickstone cafe has hands down THE BEST chicken alfredo in all of ATL! The bread that comes with the pasta is baked fresh each morning, the chicken is cooked exactly right, and the Alfredo is bountiful and creamy. Plus the staff is super friendly, accommodating, and kind. It really goes to show they care about their customers needs. read more

Now this is a place to eat! Great food, good service, calm atmosphere...Just wish it was closer to Lawrenceville. The Rosemary chicken was ok, wouldn't go for it again. The french dip gives me cravings! The sandwich itself was decent, but with the french onion soup they give you as au jus gave an addictive flavor. It maybe because I'm a french onion soup lover. Can have it everyday. read more

I have been to Brickstone a good number of times and it always impresses. The staff are friendly and the food is served at a generous amount. It's always relaxing to sit on the second floor of the restaurant and enjoy the calm environment. read more
