Loaded Avocado Toast Points
Michel S.

Food Waiter Hostess Cleaness I wanted to try a new place and what better place than a small business. It was a cool little restaurant and very busy. Clearly people love this place. I the food was good, Alex did a great job serving and the ambiance was popping. The avocado toast was tasty and filling. The downside was the host as she was not familiar with the process or at least it was the perception. People were getting seated and there was little to no communications. She never asked me for my name or anything but was keeping track of the people. Very confusing the seating situation. I spoke with the manager (owner) and told her about my experience and how to prevent additional confusion for the first timers. She was great and very apologetic. Not sure that I will be coming back but worth the try.

Strawberry Sangria
Candyce V.

This was a random stop for a weekday brunch. The service was good but the food left us a bit disappointed. My avocado + bacon burrito was decent. But the bowl had to be doctored up in order to be somewhat flavorful. We also tried the strawberry sangria, which was just ok and not worth $30. The restaurant was cute, though!

Mahi Tacos
Elizabeth Y.

First time here and came ad a walk-in on a late Saturday morning. We were looking for a place with more healthy options when eating out and that is really hard to come by. When we arrived we were able to be seated and started with drinks within a few minutes. The menu definitely had healthy options we were looking for but nothing super creative. I decide to try the Mahi tacos based on the servers recommendation. They came out quickly and were nice and hot. As for taste, it was not really pleasant. The fish was way overcooked and instead of tasting blackened, all you can taste was salt. Disappointing because I love fish tacos. Glad we gave them a shot but not the greatest food experience.

Iced mango matcha latte with coconut milk
Shauna D.

This place is such a gem. My daughter and I went here for breakfast. The place is clean and quiet. No loud music. There's even a small area for young children to play while waiting. There was no wait for us at all. Luke was our server and was so kind. We had menus and a Look Book which helped my daughter see what each menu item would look like. Very helpful for picky eaters. We didn't wait very long for our food at all. The veggie bowl AMAZING. Normally I add salt and pepper but it was not needed at all. My daughter devoured her carnivore bowl. The matcha latte was okay. It didn't quite look like the picture display but it's the typical matcha taste. No mango flavor at all. We will definitely be back for breakfast again. The service and food were great!

Restore-(carrots, kale, green apples, ginger, lemon)

Good Kitchen is a pretty solid neighborhood gem. My husband and I have been going since they first opened and have enjoyed watching them grow and thrive. We recently visited and it did not disappoint. We opted to sit outside and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We started off ordering a mocha coffee and a restore juice. Both were really good drinks. We also ordered a chicken sausage burrito, carnivore bowl with an extra side of chicken sausage and a side of hash browns. Everything was super fresh, hot, and delicious. The service was great! Even though we sat outside, our waiter kept checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed. If you haven't had the opportunity to visit Good Kitchen, make sure you check them out!

What a gem! I found this place because of the ratings on yelp and it did not disappoint. I was there with five people. We each got something different and everyone loved what they had. The Smashburger was a hit. The curry chicken bowl was delicious. I had a steak sandwich on sourdough that was phenomenal. I love that they use organic ingredients and grass fed beef. I just can't recommend this place enough!

Avocado BLT Salad with a fried egg
Najah H.

This was my 2nd time dining in and I truly enjoy this place. Wholesome, good ingredients and great tasting food. The service is casual and hands-on. The drink special wasn't available so they created a new drink for me (lavender lemonade). Also, they explained the brew or wine flights ($15). I decided on the Avocado BLT salad for a heavier lunch. I added an egg for my protein instead of chicken, salmon or steak. When you add proteins the costs can get pricey. Everything was delicious and other patrons were super friendly. This location is smaller compared to Marietta however it's well lit, cozy and perfect place to get a healthier meal in downtown Smyrna. I plan to pop in more often and bring some friends!

I was meeting up to catch up with a good friend while visiting Atlanta. My friend is vegan, so there aren't many places around the area. A central meeting point was Smyrna, and luckily, I found Good Kitchen with some vegan options. There's another location in Marietta, too. PARKING There's a parking lot with plenty of parking spaces. AMBIANCE The restaurant is clean and bright. The decor is modern-rustic. SERVICE The employees greeted us upon entrance and quickly sat us at a booth. The server was very attentive and amiable. FOOD/DRINK * Pour Over Coffee: I ordered this and was pleasantly surprised they brought a whole Chemex contraption. I use a Chemex at home, so I'm all about it! Aesthetics. * Loaded Avocado Toast: I ordered this as my main breakfast. The toast was thick and topped with chili campana, balsamic glaze, avocado crema, and microgreens. The toast was okay. It could've used a few minutes longer in the toaster. The loaded ingredients were delicious, albeit it needed some salt. * Sweet Potato Hash: This side was a miss for me and my friend. The sweet potato hash was undercooked inside. It was a bit soggy, too. We asked for extra crispy, but the outside was slightly burned and unevenly cooked. * Pancakes: The pancakes were delicious!! I enjoyed the whipped butter and syrup that accompanied the dish. No complaints. Overall, there are a lot of healthy options at Good Kitchen. I enjoyed my meal and would love to visit again to try other items on the menu.

Food was not as tasty we hoped it would be. We got our meals to go and both bowls didn't have the cheese we ordered. Coffee was good.

Ok, I'm in LOVE! Can I move to Atlanta?!!! I actually went next-door to the speakeasy and got a…read moredrink, ... we intended to order dinner, but the service was so unfriendly. (I'll spare you the details, I'll give them their own review.) So I searched where else I could go and this lovely place was sitting right next-door. We were greeted by Nick when we walked in, and he was so welcoming and so cordial. We chose to sit at the bar because we just love sitting at a bar and talking with the bartender. We met Brittney at the bar and she was completely delightful! (they had no idea of difference they were making in our dinner date!) FRIED GREEN TOMATOES... do not miss these. The fried chicken and collards dish... It's signature! Do yourself a favor and order that. The drinks were lovely. I can't remember what all we ordered. And then in the end, the butter cake. Absolutely don't miss this one! If you find yourself at the restaurant next-door, and you have the opportunity... Slip out and go to South city kitchen!

A very nice place for modern southern cuisine with exceptional service!…read more I went for dinner and the first impression I had was that the interior is very nice with good music, really suitable for a relaxing happy hour or an elevated casual dinner. Barton was my waiter and he was very friendly and thoughtful, paid attention to details, and checked in often, making the experience really great They give you free biscuits, cornbread, and butter which are pretty good, I devoured them. Very nice touch and made the whole experience elevated as well. For food, I ordered the blackberry nogrito, crab cakes, and shrimp and grits. The blackberry nogrito was very good but quite sweet, it came off as a blackberry mint mocktail similar to a mojito but the syrup flavor was a bit strong. The crab cake appetizer was delicious, probably my favorite thing! It was huge and the flavor was strong but not overpowering or heavy, which made for a really nice appetizer! It came with a mayo like sauce and was on a bed of corn for some flavor variety, but really enjoyed the crab cake. It also came out PIPING hot and was very enjoyable. The shrimp and grits came with a Smokey almost gumbo like sauce, kind of like a Cajun take on shrimp and grits. It was filled with shrimp that was very bouncy (not overcooked!), smoked ham/sausage, and was very generous on the sauce and grits. Was very enjoyable. Will definitely come back for the exceptional service and good food!

We had an amazing experience celebrating our anniversary at Canoe!…read more First off, it was super convenient that they allowed us to check our luggages as we were going straight to the airport. I really appreciate that they were able to do this. We were sat inside right next to the window, which is what I had requested in my Open Table reservation. I'm so happy that they were able to grant this special request! The river view was absolutely gorgeous. Our server was great and the food was yummy. Highlight of the meal was the cheddar grits that was served with the chicken! I would skip the caesar salad though as it was pretty bland. At the end of our meal, they brought us an anniversary treat which was ice cream. :) You can also take a little stroll outside in the beautiful outdoor area that brings you to the river. There are benches and areas for relaxing outside. I highly recommend coming here if you're in Atlanta. It was a little ways away from where we were staying downtown, but I definitely think it's worth a stop.

I will say their arbitrary rules around takeout orders is frustrating but I finally made it to the…read morerestaurant and the food is quite tasty. The server was very friendly and informative. And she took our whole order then brought out things in the order that they felt it would be best enjoyed which was nice. And recommended a wine to my friend to pair with the food. The meal started with the beet and goat cheese salad and that was one of the best things I've eaten in a long time. Then the kangaroo which was tasty but maybe a little overseasoned with black pepper - it left a lasting black pepper back of the mouth spice after we finished that both of us didn't love. And the veggies served with it were really really tasty but both of us wished there was more of it. The duck was tasty as well but it felt small for the price tag of $50 (2 slices of breast with lots of the shredded duck leg). It gave a deconstructed Peking duck vibe with the crepe and sauce. Once again we loved the veggie sides but really wished there was at least double of the carrots and bok choy to lighten the dish. And the duck n beef burger (the whole reason we came after seeing it on a food network show) was good but kind of underwhelming. The burger itself is fantastic but the bun is too big and feels like it's that big to be a filler not to compliment. And the fries that came with the burger were so salty we barely ate them. Overall we enjoyed our meal but with all of the fantastic restaurants in Atlanta neither of us are sure we'd make it back to canoe. If we do we'd definitely order ever salad on the appetizer menu first and foremost.
