A starter basket of mini muffins, nice ambiance, friendly service, and a happy birthday pastry! Overall our experience was solid. The omelette, mango smoothie, French press coffee, and chicken and waffles were standouts. The crab Benedict, side of bacon, and fresh toast earned three stars, with some generosity added in. The crab Benedict was missing some flavor, the French toast was dry and did not have the promised white chocolate, and the bacon tasted almost like jerky (To be fair, our waitress did tell us, if the restaurant had a special it would be the chicken and waffles). Overall, we'd keep Corner Cafe on our list of quality brunches in Atlanta if not a "must visit".

Over 25 minutes to have 2 simple sandwiches served to us. I ordered my BLT with extra bacon for a $3 up charge and I could barely find 3 slices. Can't substitute the boring salad greens so if you want anything else there's another up charge. Love the atmosphere but service was absolutely terrible and food was mediocre.

Food was incredibly mediocre and service was slow especially for the amount of people there. I did like the digitized payments and bill splitting that they have at every table. It's pricey for the amount of food and type of food that comes out. Wouldn't really recommend it.

Avocado Egg Toast

I love this restaurant because they make their own bread. They have one of the best croissants in town. If you want to have a good breakfast with the family this is your jam. The service was great and always efficient. The menu is small and very delicious. The restaurant is spacious and it has a lot of lighting. If you are in Buckhead and do not know where to go for lunch, this is your jam! The inly reason that I gave them 4 stars it is because of the presentation. The egg was broken and should have been caught by the chef before serving.

It really makes a difference having a good manager here again! Yen, the manager make sure everyone extends great customer service and the food comes out on time I had stayed away from coming here because the service was poor and slow But once I learned they were gonna get good management again I'm returning again and again! I usually order their grilled cheese or they're special and always look forward love their complementary muffins

I had high hopes but unfortunately the food did not live up to it. My arugula pear bartlett salad sounded good in theory but was delivered heavily dressed and wilted. The nutella latte tasted so sugary like a kid's chocolate milk with extra syrup, meanwhile I was expecting an actual latte. My sister said she enjoyed her grilled cheese and tomato soup. The service was sufficient and the ambience was fine. I also got a baguette bread to take home from the bakery and it was not it.

CC "Cuban" Panini Sandwich & leek potato soup
Marni M.

Arriving on a Sunday just before 10 am, there was about a 15 minute wait for a table of 3. The cafe shares space with a bread company which was a perfect wait to feeds our eyes while we waited. Otherwise, you can also leave while you wait for the text message for the table. We started on their complimentary muffins in the flavors of banana bread and chocolate chip. They were a little dry and could have been better if served warm but it was still a sweet way to start the meal. I got their CC "Cuban" Panini Sandwich which was not my favorite Cuban I've had but it was still solid. The sandwich plus the leek potato soup was a great combination since the soup was so creamy and rich. My friend's Roasted Rosemary Lamb Sandwich was deliciously juice and flavorful. A simple improvement could have been toasting the bun first. My mom enjoyed her Jumbo Lump Crab Cake Benedict which was served on circular cut outs of plain bread, which were a little to small compared to using the traditional English muffins. Overall, I had a pleasant experience in this locally owned shop. The staff were kind from beginning to end and it was a comfortable and homey environment to be in. I wouldn't mind coming again to try more items from their menu but especially for the lamb burger.

Great dining experience here. A pretty diverse menu with lots of breakfast options to choose from. On mornings you can expect a bit of a wait but nothing too crazy. Ordered the corned beef hash and it was amazing. Great texture and the two eggs on top were poached perfectly. Service was friendly and efficient.

I can't believe I have lived here in Atlanta all this time and I have never been to this hidden jewel. I enjoyed a lovely brunch with wonderful service. Cassie was wonderful, thank you so much. I had the Banannas Foster Pancakes Delicious!! THE atmosphere was friendly and sunny and it was a great way to start my day! Now that I have discovered this gem, I will be back for sure.

Cinnamon Donut Muffin
Brittany C.

The Corner Cafe, a member of the Buckhead Life Restaurant Group, has been serving breakfast, brunch, and lunch along Piedmont Road since 1994. The Buckhead Bread Company is the on-site bakery producing over 60 styles of European-style breads and rolls as well as pastries. Walking in, you can see the long counter of croissants, danishes, muffins, scones, and buns. Corner Cafe offers four types of Eggs Benedict, sandwiches, soups, and specialty brunch items such as Avocado Egg Toast, "Nutella" Belgium Waffles, Scratch Corner Beef Hash, and "Bananas Foster" Buttermilk Pancakes. The Cafe is a bright, comfortable environment, and I love the classic European design of the front of the restaurant, with its wood tones, beams, and panelings. We received solid customer service. My husband and I arrived on a Sunday late morning and ordered the Lump Crab Cake Benedict and Pancakes with eggs and cheese grits. We grabbed a cheese pocket and a cinnamon donut muffin because we couldn't resist grabbing a few desserts to enjoy later. The crab cake was a bit salty, and I did not love the discs that served as the foundation for the benedict. However, the potatoes were crispy and flavorful. My husband's pancakes were a highlight, as they were fluffy and tasty even before syrup was added. The pastries were so good! The cheese pocket was so rich and flaky, and the sweet cheese was so smooth. We also loved the muffin, which really tasted like a cake donut rolled in cinnamon and sugar. I also recommend not passing up on their coffee offerings, especially the French press service. I would love to return to explore more of those sinful pastries and to try some of their lunch offerings.

Cappuccino w mini muffins
M P.

Avocado toast. Nice bread, plenty of avocado, 2 eggs on top. Nice little salad. Cappuccino that comes with 2 mini muffins! Very tasty! Everything was great! The service was good. Gets busy in the morning.

Neat ceiling design
Robert K.

Food. Lots of breakfast staples. Eggs Benedict was good but very heavy on the lemon flavor in the hollandaise sauce. The corned beef was slightly more but better. Service was quick but I think 1030 on a Monday is a slow time. Only thing I didn't like was having to pay with a QR code on the table. And the lowest suggested tip of 25% one star off for that

William S.

Arugula and Bartlett Pear salad with salmon. Ethiopian free trade organic French Press coffee....JUST GOOD...a few drops of cream added but not needed. Smoothest coffee I've ever had. Service was phenomenal to punctuate a great experience!

The Ashford - Smoked salmon dip

The Ashford

(68 reviews)

I was in town for a quick work trip and my team and I kicked things off here for dinner. I found…read morethem on Yelp a week or so before and ended up making a reservation on their website the next day. I'm so glad we listened to the other reviews and gave them a visit because our entire table of four had a lovely time. We started with drinks and I settled on a glass of wine. They had the exact type of sauvignon blanc that I wanted, which was an immediate win. As a group we settled on the whipped goat cheese and brussel sprouts for appetizers. The brussel sprouts came with bacon so I steered clear, but the others raved about them. The whipped goat cheese dip was also a nice choice with the garden veggies. Super creamy and refreshing. As for my entree I went with risotto of the week with salmon. It was absolutely delicious and I ate every bite. We had a birthday in the group so we of course had to get desserts. We shared the creme brulee and this super decadent chocolate cake. Both with fresh berries, love! The creme brulee was definitely my favorite of the two, but you can't go wrong. As for the space itself, it's beautiful. It gave off a sort of a modern farmhouse vibe with the wood and brick. With the twinkle lights and earthy touches bringing it all together. Our service was also on point. Jackson was awesome (as you can see in the other reviews) and kept the good vibes flowing all night. I would definitely come here again.

Me, my wife, and two of our friends (also married), came to The Ashford for dinner on a Wednesday…read morenot too long ago. We walked here from their home, as they are not too far at all. The Ashford is a pretty nice place to grab either brunch, lunch, or dinner! We came around 7, so we had dinner. You can sit outside or inside, the weather was really nice, but we just wanted to sit inside in the AC. I got a glass of the bieler rose, which was recommended by our server. My wife got the lavender daydreams cocktail, which was really good! We all shared the chicken spring rolls and the burrata bruschetta. Both were really good! The chicken spring rolls were in a rice paper, and not the usual wonton paper. I don't usually like the rice paper spring rolls, but these ones weren't too bad. For our main, me and my wife got the chicken schnitzel. They even split it on two different plates for us too, which was nice of them to do. It was SO GOOD. Pretty sure I inhaled mine! We also shared the mac and cheese and the mashed potatoes. The mac and cheese was soooooo good. It was a pimento mac and cheese, and had herbed breadcrumbs. Chef's kiss! The only reason this isn't getting 5 stars, is because our food took FOREVER to come out. There were some larger parties, so I do get it, but this was like 30-45 minutes forever. Also, I can't remember which dish, but one of the dishes me and my wife got was cold, so we asked to send it back to get a warmer version, which they did. They comped this off the bill, which was nice. That didn't bother me as much as the food coming out so late. Had that not been the case, I would've given this review 5 stars! The food was really really good. We would definitely still come back in the future!

Our guest had a wonderful experience and were so impressed that we are already planning our next event there for next year. Highly recommend for both dining and private events!

My friends planned me a surprise birthday dinner here!…read more Parking: I took an uber, but they do offer valet. Looks like there was a parking garage not too far away too. Service: Service was great from the time I walked in to the time I left. The ambiance was aesthetic without being overly trendy. A very clean and nice establishment that looks modern! In fact, the manager tied the tie that went with my dress for me because I didn't know how to do it. He also ended our night with a lovely champagne toast which was the perfect touch for my birthday. Devon was also an amazing waiter. I appreciated his attention to detail and promptness throughout the whole service. Food: All of the women at the table did the prix fixe menu which was an amazing deal that they offer I believe on Fridays and Saturdays. For the 4 courses you get, it is well worth the price and honestly a great deal for a date night if you have someone you want to impress :) Everything was phenomenal. The crab cake was full of meaty crab, the lobster bisque was velvety and creamy, the ginger duck steak was cooked perfectly and though I can't remember the dessert I got, likely because I was stuffed from the other courses, I'm sure it was delicious too. The menu was plentiful with great choices and it's honestly a whole lot of food! Drinks: This is the only thing I'd say wasn't my favorite. The drink I got was just okay to me, I likely could've done without it.

Great seafood and service!…read more Let's get into it! Location and Parking Located in Chamblee, there is plenty of free parking available as it is in a shopping center. I saw previous reviews mentioning that parking was a challenge, however I visited on a weekday so I didn't have that issue. Venue and Atmosphere The interior is sleek yet casual, with plenty of sunlight from floor to ceiling windows. Feel free to browse the selection of fresh seafood as you enter. Food and drinks I visited with friends and we shared several appetizers: oxtail gumbo, salmon bites, grilled oysters. They were all delicious and flavorful. Service Service was friendly, prompt, and efficient Verdict I'll be back!

Wow--let's talk about this dining experience…read more The oxtail gumbo? My first time trying it, and definitely not my last. Every bite was rich, comforting, and fully satisfying. Then came the salmon bites on wonton--crispy, flavorful, and such a perfect balance of texture. For the entrée, the pasta with salmon was not only delicious but a generous portion that didn't miss. And for something sweet... the bread pudding? So moist, topped with ice cream and Oreos--it was giving indulgence in the best way. But what really sealed the night for me was the coffee pairing. It took the show and brought everything together beautifully. I also loved the range of the menu--there's something for every craving. The service was excellent, and the food presentation matched the quality. Honestly had me thinking, what took me so long to dine here? Especially since I'm in this area often. Bonus: patio seating for outdoor season, plus easy access with self-parking, valet, or a parking deck.

The wonderful vibe there was only improved by the superb service by Maila our server and Brie, the bartender who served us our wonderful cocktails and hand delivered them with a smile. We ordered 3 appetizers which were generous in size and 2 entrées. Here's what we got: Sticky Lamb Ribs (our favorite appetizer), sushi tots, soy glazed pork belly, shrimp and grits, and crab and calabrian chili bigoli. To drink we selected scent of a Woman, and a pineapple fizz mocktail. For dessert we ordered a strawberry shortcake creme brulee. We were stuffed by the end of the meal and very happy with our experience overall. 5Church Buckhead is a 5 star establishment and gets my two thumbs up as well.

I've…read morealready written a review on Google, to which the owner replied and lied about when we arrived, which I have proof of on there. I am only writing a review on here because of their dishonest response. I booked my wedding dinner here for 18 people. We were running about half an hour late and let the restaurant know. We thought it would be fine because our reservation slot was for 2.5 hours, which is plenty of time. From the moment we arrived service was extremely slow. Drinks took forever to come and some were forgotten. My friend got a virgin raspberry mojito and it was so sour it was undrinkable. We had asked multiple times for one regular menu to order from and for some simple syrup for the mojito, neither of which we got. We pretty much had one server for our table of 18 people, and he was serving other tables as well. He told us at the start that another server would be helping but she was barely seen. It got to the point where my husband and I had to get up to talk to management. They were apologetic, gave us a bottle of rose, and asked how they can make it better. I told them that things need to be on time not just because we were approaching the end of our reservation but also because we had plans right after. Service was still slow and once we were finished we were still sitting and waiting for the check. We ended up being late to our other plans. Keep in mind this was our wedding day. We had just gotten married and everybody was in a great mood. We were nice and clearly communicated our needs even though service was lacking throughout the whole dinner. I write a review and then a day later they reply to my review, telling lies to try and discredit me. As if the poor service during dinner wasn't enough, their timing and dishonesty reflects their lack of respect for their customers. We spent over $2000 which included a 22% gratuity fee. Such a waste of money. You couldn't pay me to come here again. If you're looking for a restaurant for a wedding, proposal, anniversary, celebration, graduation, reunion, date, large party, or really anything, save yourself the trouble. They just might treat you the way we were treated, and then lie about it to try and make you look bad.

At first there was a mix up with who was serving us do we got explained the drink menu twice. After our appetizer, we waited about 30-40 minutes for the rest of our items which took longer than we thought. They did give us some house made popcorn to keep us busy. Jahjoy pork belly: Tasty & tendor. I loved the papaya salad which left a refreshing contrast. A bit too saucy for me. Flavors were strong. Squid ink bucatini: our favorite! Must get dish - bucatini is perfectly al dente & the spicy sauce was very flavorful. Jumbo shrimp was delicious, and the anchovy on top left a nice strong flavor. Red snapper: This has some Vietnamese influences with the sauce. It was a lighter dish which was just OK for me, I would have liked the fish to have a crispier skin. Not much flavor besides the sauce which is inspired by canh chua. Wagyu flank steak: cooked to perfection and flavored well, loved the celery puree which was much tastier than we expected celery to be. Dessert was mint chocolate cake which was very tasty. I wish the cake was softer and meltier in the center but it was still good. Malt gelato was delicious. Could def taste the mintiness. Creme pat along the edges was a nice add to the cake with cacao nibs and popcorn for a textural contrast. I enjoyed it!! Overall we had a great meal and could tell the ingredients were very fresh. The presentation for all the dishes was beautiful!! We can tell the chef puts care in his food :) Appreciated the personal touch - they gave a handwritten card to my husband for his birthday!
