    The location is great! It was less than an hour for us all. The food was absolutely amazingly delicious. This was my 3rd visit in 2 weeks. I came with a gf, my fiance, then my brunch Babes! adajah was a cute lil button that was very attentive to our 'xtra' needs

    French 75

    I ran in for some to-go pancakes, ended up with some grits and a 75 while I waited. I had the best experience with the bar tender, Tabitha. Not only did have great food and drink recommendations, she had amazing, contagious energy! I left feeling uplifted (and it was just the libations ). Thank you Tabitha! Keep spreading love!

    Savory Lamb Chops

    This was my first time at Gocba's Tapas! I'm familiar with the Breakfast Bar. I can honestly say, I'm never disappointed!! This time we had the fried green tomatoes, which are my fav!!! The salmon bites were true blend of sweet and savory! The lamb chops with mashed and spinach! Delicious!!!! Our waitress Addae checked in with us regularly. Our food came out hot! It was such a nice vibe! They have ample seating, inside or out. This time I didn't get a chance to order a cocktail, but we did have this refreshing strawberry lemonade that was perfect with our meals! This has become one of my go to spots when visiting Atlanta!

    Shrimp & Crab Dip
    Elizabeth D.

    Came to enjoy a quick bite to eat at my neighborhood Gocha's. The shrimp and crab dip is my all time favorite, it's cheesy, loaded with both shrimp and crab in every bite and it's flavorful. The toasted bread pieces they provide with the dip pair so well, they're warm and they have this garlic buttery taste - a must try! The fried green tomatoes are also a huge hit! Our server was Mimi, who was so sweet and provided us with outstanding service. From checking in on us regularly and always greeting us with such a warm smile, she really gave amazing customer service. Soft sounds of R&B are playing in the background which definitely helps set the scene but not too loud to where you can't enjoy your groups conversation. And the best part of it all, it's black owned! Definitely give this restaurant a try if ever in the area.

    Love this place. Great music, great staff, great vibes. The menu is extensive, the prices are more than fair and portions are perfect and the food is fantastic. Shout out to our servers Eric and Mimi for really making our day. I ordered the Salman Breakfast Croissant with a side of sweet potato fries and it was an amazing choice. There truly was nothing left on my plate. My partner ordered the fish and grits and what a show stopper! The grits were truly the star and the fish paired perfectly! Also, Love the fact they had a live DJ keeping the crowd swaying to some great tunes. This is definitely the go-to Sunday brunch spot. We will be back.

    Burnt bacon

    I really love this place but this location is not it.... We literally waited for a table for 30 minutes even though the restaurant was half empty.... We then waited almost 90 minutes for our food at that point I was over everything... then my bacon was burnt... the manager was not helpful... they charged for water we didn't ask for and for extra cheese we never got.... Then they tried to add automatic gratuity to a table of 2.... Don't go to this location at all...

    The mediocre food and disappointing service left me saying 'never again' to this establishment. I truly wanted to enjoy the experience because this spot has been heavily talked about as one of the newer brunch destinations with great vibes and atmosphere. Unfortunately, while the ambiance showed promise, the service in particular left a lot to be desired and ultimately overshadowed the experience.

    Seafood Omelette
    Tunicia W.

    Still amazing food, service and ambiance. I dropped in today because it was practically impossible to drive anywhere above I-20 today so I stuck to my side of town for brunch. I had just finished a race and was famished! I ordered the seafood omelette and chose a croissant and grits to accompany my dish. They give you an option to upgrade to add the seafood sauce to the omelette. I honestly think this would be good to just have as part of the dish but whatever. It was very good and my espresso martini was perfection.

    They have their own bottled water. I thought this was nice.

    A friend of mine was celebrating his birthday and chose to have brunch at Gocha's. As a dedicated Yelper, I naturally started browsing photos and reviews ahead of time--it's just what I do. I'm a big foodie and a fan of anything with a touch of sophistication, and this place definitely delivered. I was genuinely impressed by the variety on the menu, the beautiful decor, and most importantly, the flavor of the food. Everything felt like it was done with care and intention. Easily an A+ experience. As someone raised in Atlanta, I've been to plenty of brunch spots around the city, but I often find that many miss the mark when it comes to atmosphere and presentation. Gocha's really stood out. It had a polished, elevated vibe, and our server, Tabitha, was incredibly kind and attentive. I snapped a few photos of the dishes at our table. Everyone ordered something different, and not only was the food delicious, but it was also plated beautifully. You can tell the owner has a great eye for detail--and that makes all the difference.

    Crazy Lobster Roll
    Ashley S.

    One day I decided to try this place out. I love the outside patio area that they have. The inside was pretty cute as well. I ordered online for a pick up. Next time I'll do a dine in as well. I ordered a lobster roll and some wings. I love spicy foods so you know I had to test the hot wings out. They were both a hit!! Now, the lobster roll was a pretty small serving. Flavorful but a small portion. The wings are great, I do wish they were fried a little longer. Other than that I loved my options. The young lady at the door was very sweet and welcoming.

    Crispy Chicken Wings
    Nicole C.

    Cons: The music is way too loud here!!! It's so disturbing, I couldn't hear my thoughts. I had such a headache dining here. It's like going to a club. I wasn't trying to go to the club at 7pm Friday night, I literally just wanted some good food in a nice atmosphere. The mocktails are overpriced at $10, imho not worth it. Pros: the food was delicious! Yes, they are definitely doing a good job with offering a nice variety of great tasting entrees, which I find it very hard to find really good tasting food in Atlanta. I tried several items: -Crispy Chicken Wings with lemon pepper honey hot sauce (10 out of 10) -Shrimply Divine Bruschetta (10 out of 10) -Shrimpin' Ain't Easy (10 out of 10) -Truffle Fries (10 out of 10) -Spinach & Crab Dip Hooray! (7 out of 10) to difficult to scoop Heads-up: the food's good but it ain't cheap. A 20% tip is automatically included on your bill if you spend $75 or more.

    Mushroom Mavens
    Jeanelle W.

    So let me tell you, this place was such a vibe! It's located in the Publix plaza close to West Lake High School. This was my first time at this location. Anyway, the moment I stepped out of my car I started dancing in the parking lot because they had a dj on the patio playing some major tunes! I believe they were hosting a political event. Small world- I actually taught her son in middle school! Anyway, we entered the restaurant and we were warmly greeted by Cornelius. He took us to our seats and showed us where to scan for the menus. I will say the music in the restaurant was very different from the music on the patio and Cornelius noticed that we were no longer dancing, so he made it his mission to have the same music on the inside. Which automatically gave him extra cool points in my book! We came here to celebrate my sister's birthday so my sister and I started off with martinis. My mom stuck to water. For the appetizer we started off with the Smokin' Salmon Sensation which was sensational! After that we were ready to order! Our waitress for the night was also working the bar, which is pretty difficult to do. Thankfully, they have a great system and Cornelius jumped in to support. Entrees: Steak Skewer Sensation , Lobster Mac Attack , Mushroom Mavens , and the Whole Snapper Fish. From start to finish, Gocha's Tapas Bar was a 10/10. Vibe. Decor. Food. Service. I always tell waiters/waitresses that my mom is a tough cookie. So if she gives you a stamp of approval, it was top tier. I will definitely be returning!

    Breakfast at Barney's was such a great experience! The food was delicious, and everything we…read moreordered was full of flavor. One thing I really loved was the photo booth outside in the parking garage--it was such a fun touch and made the visit even more memorable. The only downside was the parking. Unless you're lucky enough to find street parking, you'll have to park in the garage, which wasn't my favorite. Other than that, everything was great. The bartender was incredibly kind and patient, especially since I'm very picky about drinks. She helped me choose one that I ended up loving. The atmosphere inside was also really nice, with a fun and welcoming vibe. I'd definitely come back!

    SUPER unimpressed with my visit here…read more Based on the decor, especially the photo area in the parking deck and the fake flower arch outside, my first impression was that this was going to be a "TikTok trap": a restaurant focused more on aesthetics than food or service. Unfortunately, that impression ended up being accurate. It took forever for our food to come out. The parties around us were clearly frustrated as well. I watched one table become visibly irritated, while another guest stopped a server to ask if the food being carried out was theirs because they had apparently been waiting over an hour. As the wait dragged on, I started paying closer attention to the decor, which I personally found tacky and gimmicky, especially the fake greenery hanging across the ceiling. The fried green tomatoes and sweet heat wings were really good, and I started to rethink my initial assessment of the restaurant. Everything went downhill from there. My "Rich Boy" sandwich itself was good, but it came with completely unseasoned fries. When I mentioned that I was supposed to have the "Rolex" fries, the server told me the plain fries were what I got. After clarifying with another server, they brought out the actual "Rolex" fries, which appeared to just be fries with a little parmesan and parsley on top. Supposedly they were truffle fries, but there wasn't even a hint of truffle flavor. My partner ordered the veggie sausage, which was overcooked and dry. Their eggs came out over easy instead of over medium, and the "signature grits" were more like cream cheese with a little bit of grits mixed in. We were told more grits would be brought out, but they never came. Another person in my party ordered the Southern seafood pasta, which had literally one piece of spinach in it. When she asked about it, the server responded that there was "more spinach coming." At that point, it became clear that Barney's is selling the illusion of luxury in order to justify premium prices for subpar food and service. It really was a TikTok trap after all. To make matters worse, when the check came, we were charged an additional $1.50 for eggs that already came with the meal. The explanation was that the eggs "came from the shell." Others in my party were also charged extra for liquor on top of the listed menu price for their drinks. Overall, I absolutely did not enjoy my experience here, and I will not be returning. Oh, and that other party that was visibly irritated with the wait had to wait even longer because there was a hair in their food.

The cucumber mint lemonade was AMAZING. Too bad it's $4 for a small glass with no refills. Now for the rest... they were out of fries, which normally come with the burger, but I was charged an extra $3 to substitute Brussels sprouts. The server never mentioned there would be an upcharge. I only found out when I got the bill. When I questioned it, she basically said she couldn't control the system. My issue isn't even the $3. If you're out of the side that comes with the meal, customers shouldn't have to pay extra for a replacement. And I definitely don't appreciate surprise charges on my bill. I had my child with me, so I wasn't about to go back and forth over $3. I paid it and kept it moving. Another surprise was that they don't offer free water. If you want water, you have to buy a bottle. Between paying for parking, paying for bottled water, and no drink refills, the little charges started adding up. I felt "nickled and dimed." The music couldn't decide what vibe it wanted. One minute we could talk normally, and the next minute we were basically at a concert. There was also a leak in the ceiling, and near the restrooms there was a smell that reminded me of old wet towels. On the positive side, the host was amazing. He was super personable and welcoming. They also turn those tables over FAST. By the time we paid, our dishes were gone and the table was already cleaned and ready for the next group. The food is what saved this review. There were just too many little things that took away from what could've easily been a 5-star experience.

The burgers, the fried chicken, the fried shrimp, everything was looking so yummy. I totally have to come back. The place is much bigger than it looks from the front because it extends around the corner behind the counter and they greet you when you come in.

    Will start by saying this place is so affordable which is hard to find these days, and I appreciate…read morethe amount of vegan options! Service was slow, almost an hour to get our food and we came on a weekday morning (can't even imagine the weekend rush!). The biscuits are DELICIOUS especially with the apple butter they have on the table, but I would skip the cornbread. Super super dry and grainy. Also the fried okra was tough to get through because of the size. I do wish they maybe had some fresh juice options available in addition to all of the coffees and teas, but it was fine overall and I wouldn't mind going again.
