    Veggie Green Burrito vegan style
    Kandus J.

    Lovely little Mexican spot in Atlanta! Perfect for meat eaters & vegetarians! They have vegan queso as well! The flavor is jam packed & they have a ton of amazing options! The service is usually pretty great for the most part. Definitely check them out if you're in the area!

    My stacked enchiladas were okay, I think other dishes are more worth trying like the flautas. I would definitely come back for their margaritas. I got the myriachi marg ($8), which was strong in their tequila but tasted great overall. All of their margs r under $10~. Parking is super easy in their private lot around the restaurant. Service was nice and attentive, especially for our large party.

    *Mom Tacos (3)
    Daryl O.

    I don't even know how to say the name of the place but my friend that lives in the area suggested we stop by since they were new to the taco game so he wanted to give it a try. It doesn't strike me as a Mexican restaurant. It gave more of a dive bar type vibe but there's nothing wrong with that. I tried the Momma's Tacos, their beef tacos and loved that they offered a choice between soft and hard shells. I went with the soft shells and the beef was flavorful seasoned just right and hit the spot. The rice wasn't very tasty. I am not a beans person so I can't comment on it. But let's talk about the real star of the show: the crab queso dip. It's absolutely amazing. It was rich, creamy, and packed with chunks of crab. It's worth a trip just for that alone. The service was great, too. Our waiter was attentive and consistent, keeping our drinks refilled without us even having to ask. This might seem minor but I appreciated it. Everything was reasonably priced so you won't break the bank here. Just for the sake of the crab queso. I'll be back for sure!

    Pineapple Margarita with chips and salsa!
    Ahmad W.

    I'm nearby in the area. I recently moved to the neighborhood. I went out on 5/30 one day after my bday to check out the scene at this restaurant and the actual vibe. I went around 8:39 the rush just passed and the waitress told me that they were out of the mango so I opted to try the pineapple mango frozen. It is delicious with actual fruit pieces in it. I also just got a order of chips and salsa.I got something light I ate food earlier.My sister gave me some news prior about one of our cousins passing away another reason I went to grab a drink. One of the servers brought me my food name Boone. My waitress took care of me I didn't get her name though I sat at the bar. I told my bro about this place also.

    Passion fruit margaritas
    Liv J.

    The ambiance was incredible. I came in on a Friday afternoon after work. The place wasn't packed yet. Then an hour later it was packed and they blocked the streets for the wine ride event. It was awesome to see despite the trouble for others to find parking because the roads were blocked off. The service was awesome. Great people and great crowd. I am so happy I came before the rush.

    Vegan Chimichanga with Pinto Beans
    Kina R.

    I was very impressed by the plant-based/vegan chimichunga. I never had one before and this was a good first try. I loved the spice level and the flavors were there! I'm happy to know they had plenty of vegan options. I wasn't a fan of their cocktail menu. I had a colada type of drink, which wasn't the best. The staff was nice and inviting. I love the option to be in an enclosure or patio space. I will definitely be back.

    I came for the mariyachi!!! It is STRONG and reasonably priced at $8! I came here for it and i was satisfied! The tacos were good and the food was reasonably priced. The service was ok. And the ambiance was family oriented and chill. Plenty of parking and it's FREE

    Elmyriachi serves up amazing food and strong drinks, making it a solid spot for a great meal. Definitely kid friendly environment and casual ambiance as the restaurant had tons of children eating with their families. I ordered the tofu chimichanga, and it was absolutely deliciou flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I also tried the Myriachi drink, which had a strong pour and was just as tasty. I sat at the bar, and while my waitress was polite, she was pretty indifferent. That wasn't a big deal until I ran into an unexpected issue--Elmyriachi does not accept tap-to-pay in any form. I only carry my phone especially to such a casual eatery, so I was caught off guard when I saw the small sign halfway through my meal. When I explained my situation, my waitress showed no concern and didn't even check on me afterward. She actually didn't make eye contact with me again until I paid the bill. I ended up asking the couple next to me to cover my meal and Zelle-ing them double the amount, which put a damper on an otherwise great experience. My only real complaint is that this policy needs to be clearly stated on their website and at the entrance. If you go, bring a physical card or cash. Otherwise, the food and drinks are worth it. Seems like a fun CinconDe Mayo spot.

    Refried beans and corn

    Food is tasteless. Refried beans taste like they were left open in the can for 3 days and they attempted to add a shredded cheese single. Corn taste like green giant canned corn.

    Chicken quesadilla
    Carlie M.

    This is a great local Mexican spot. We came on a Friday night around 6 and it was crowded! We waited about 20 minutes for a table. There were lots of families, so it actually cleared out as the night went on. They have all the classics. We got queso, a burrito and chicken quesadilla. All very good if you are looking for good old Mexican food. They also have decent margs for a decent price. You do have to pay for chips as a heads up!

    a basket of deep fried chicken nuggies
    Shermika D.

    This is an ok little Mexican spot with good drinks at reasonable prices. The service is very spotty here. It was terrible when I came with a friend and just as bad when I came just for drinks a second time. My friend and I waited about 15 minutes before the guy came to our table (after passing by several times). I enjoyed the nachos and the pork rinds which were tasty. They forgot my queso however which I asked for on the side. Then made excuses that it was burned but offered no recourse. They have a parking lot which is great for the area! They do charge for chips and salsa which is meh. And I think when my friend and I came for drinks we were charged $4 for chips and salsa but maybe that's the price. I do think they need to work on their service. Folks are friendly but they're lacking in this area.

    pork skins
    Alexis A.

    Consistently one of my favorite spots in Atlanta. When you come here you know you're getting good food, food service, and chill vibes. I normally stop in for brunch and they do have bottomless! Only got apps this time but tried the pork skins for the first time and 11/10.

    I can't believe it took me so long to eat at Delilah's! I've known of this highly lauded business…read morefor years but never found the right day when I was craving soul food and in the area to order. Until recently. I decided to have a tapas-style dinner with food from The Works and just had to grab some chicken from Delilah's. The menu is plentiful without being overwhelming, except when it comes to picking a favorite between the flavorful options. I knew that I didn't want or need a full meal and opted for their 3 whole wing option that came paired with cornbread. The young man who took my order was so polite and patient, as there were a few folks in line and waiting for previously placed orders. He let me know that my order would be ready in about 15 minutes so I took the time to continue my food-finding journey around the market. When I returned later, I had lost track of time and figured I'd just poke my head around their stall to see if my chicken was ready. It wasn't at that moment but I took some time to observe the process. There was only one guy in the open kitchen and prep area creating all of the meals and he was on the move. If I could add smells to my review, this one would smell like fried chicken and cornbread. It was all so fresh! When my order was ready, I only made one other stop before heading to my car to go home to my family... but not before I tested those whole wings from Delilah's. When I say that they were fresh out of the grease? Babehhh. It's like he just threw them right into the basket only seconds before. It was sooo crunchy, so juicy, just a fantastic wing. The hot sauce was a nice pairing but some spice in the breading/meat would have taken it over the top but this chicken was delicious. No notes.

Very eggy texture and not much cheese taste. Everything else was nothing to write home about. The fried chicken was good but only like a step above Safeway's fried chicken. I don't even know what to say about the fries and cornbread. Water was like $3. Located in a food court and kinda pricey. Even the parking wasn't free despite having tons of open spots.

While I know many come for the food, I personally make the 25-minute drive for one thing: the Sweet Potato Cheesecake. Or at least, I used to. Lately, it seems like something has changed in the process. The cheesecake hasn't been setting properly, and the cream cheese isn't fully blended into the sweet potato, leaving noticeable chunks. The flavor, once rich and decadent, has also diminished, making me question if it's still worth the trip. That said, I've heard the rest of the food is still solid, so if you're craving Southern comfort food, it may still be worth checking out.

    Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q…read more Fox Bros. has that hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint feel, but with plenty of space to hang out. There's a bar along with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the overall atmosphere is casual and laid-back. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and gave us some great recommendations, which definitely added to the experience. We went with the three-meat sampler and chose the brisket, ribs, and jalapeño cheddar sausage, with tots and the Fox-a-Roni for our sides. The Fox-a-Roni--a combination of their Brunswick stew and mac & cheese--was absolutely delicious and easily one of the most memorable sides I've had at a BBQ restaurant. The brisket was honestly some of the best brisket I've ever had. It was tender, flavorful, and easily my favorite of the three meats. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was also really good, and while the ribs tasted great, ours were pretty small and didn't have a ton of meat on them. My only real complaint was the portioning of the sampler. We were told that as you choose a larger variety of meats, you essentially receive smaller portions of each. I understand the idea of a sampler, but we literally received one slice of brisket and two-three fairly small ribs, so the portion-to-variety concept didn't make a ton of sense to me. I would've preferred slightly more substantial portions, especially considering how good the brisket was! I also ordered a cocktail, but unfortunately it wasn't really for me. It came across very sweet and mostly juice, although I think that may have been more about the particular drink I chose than the bar itself. Overall, the food absolutely delivered. Between the incredible brisket, Fox-a-Roni, friendly service, and laid-back BBQ atmosphere, Fox Bros. was definitely worth the stop. I'd happily come back--I'd just skip the 3 meat sampler next time and order more of that brisket!

Nevertheless service was stand out once we walked in and were kindly greeted by the host. We then sat down at our table and were then greeted with our server Tiffany. Let me just say we need a Tiffany everywhere, this girl really went above and beyond and truly welcomed us and genuinely was just a pleasure to interact with through out the whole visit. She really wanted to give us the best experience and recommendations for our first visit and let me just say everything was amazing and the service was top tier, such a great place with a great atmosphere, service and amazing food. What more can you ask for. She would def be the reason we visit Atlanta again and go back to eat here.

Our experience at Virgil's Gullah Kitchen was completely unacceptable from beginning to end. Our waiter disappeared for over 15 minutes after taking our credit card to the register. When he finally returned, he claimed that he had somehow lost our credit card between our table and the register. Let that sink in -- our credit card was in the restaurant's possession, and somehow it disappeared while being handled by our server. To make matters even worse, our check was incorrect, adding another layer of frustration to an already completely unacceptable situation. And then, instead of taking responsibility and resolving the situation appropriately, the waiter had the audacity to give us his personal phone number and tell us to call him to see if he found our credit card. Absolutely not. That is not an appropriate way to handle a customer's financial information or a potentially lost credit card. At that point, the issue was no longer simply poor service, it became a matter of trust, accountability, and basic professionalism. I expect a restaurant to provide good food and service, but above all, I expect my personal property and financial information to be handled responsibly. This experience left me extremely uncomfortable and disappointed. Virgil's Gullah Kitchen needs to seriously address how situations like this are handled and, more importantly, how customer credit cards are being handled by staff! One star is honestly generous. I would not recommend this establishment based on this experience.

I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take. Overall: 4/5 great setting, just comes at a premium.

I called shortly afterward and was informed that an employee had found it and that it was being held at the restaurant. When I arrived about 10 minutes later to retrieve it, I was told that the phone was no longer there and had somehow gone missing. What made this situation even worse was the way the manager handled it. Instead of showing concern, taking responsibility, or making a genuine effort to help resolve the issue, he was dismissive, spoke to me in an unprofessional manner in front of other customers, and ultimately walked away while I was still trying to discuss what had happened. I understand that mistakes can happen, but losing an item that had already been found and acknowledged by staff is a serious issue. More importantly, the lack of accountability, empathy, and professionalism shown by management was unacceptable. No customer should be treated with disrespect, especially when trying to recover a valuable personal item. I hope the company reviews its lost-and-found procedures and provides better customer service training to its management team. My experience left me feeling frustrated, embarrassed, and completely unsupported.
