    Rasta pasta with chicken
    Erica E.

    I can't believe that after all of these great years in Atlanta, I'm just getting to try Gutbusters. Shame on me! I didn't visit the restaurant in person, but I came across them one afternoon when I was looking for a quick lunch for delivery. The variety of options available on the menu was so diverse, it was difficult to choose what I wanted. Luckily, their prices are so reasonable and they offer some great combos, so I decided to go with a few different bites. The beef philly cheesesteak (+ peppers) was my main item - It was good, but nowhere near the tastiest cheesesteak I've had in the city. Didn't expect it to be authentic but I think it could have used more cheese and flavor. Not bad though! The wings were my delicious and fried hard. Not my usual preference but they were so fresh and crunchy, I see the appeal now. I went with honey garlic + lemon pepper sprinkles, extra wet. They weren't extra wet sadly, but the flavor of the honey garlic + those sprinkles really sealed the deal. I wish I had ordered more! The fries were the frozen type but I found a few that were still hot and seasoned, I wish I had them right out of the fryer/oven because I think they would have been much better. The rasta pasta blew my mind because it was only $5 with chicken?! I don't know if that was a typo or what, but I went for it lol. My bf likes rasta pasta so I always get it if I see it on a menu. He wished there was more jerk sauce in the pasta but we had some in the fridge that he ended up adding in. Once he doctored it up a bit, he seemed to enjoy it. All in all, a good experience for a great price. I'll definitely be trying more of their menu to explore all of the flavors!

    Decided to try them out for breakfast this morning. The customer service was good but the food wasn't all that. The sausage tasted old and flavorless. The grits and eggs were cool. If you want a quick cheap breakfast this is the place to come. Two meals u day 20 bucks isn't bad. Parking wasn't bad either.

    I went in for take out on a weekend afternoon. The restaurant is easy to find. Located in small plaza. Medium sized yellow sign outside. They have a free parking lot in front of restaurant. I have visited this place over 3 times. This time I ordered: () Bacon, Grits, Eggs, & Toast Pork chop, grits, eggs, toast Side of Breakfast Potatoes Salmon Cakes Pros I always order breakfast. Great soul food, affordable prices, and plentiful portions. A great takeout option- especially for the area. Cons Ordering online or over the phone can sometimes be a hassle. (I.e. Not answering the phone, ordering system being down or not taking orders often) Would I Recommend Yes... if you can order it'll be worth it. Way better than waffle house and CHEAPER with MORE food. Follow me here on Google Maps, Yelp, Foursquare, and @jessreviewss on Instagram for more.

    I was in the area, so since we didn't eat all day, we decided to take out. Lots of ppl were here, so we really thought the food was great. Not really... :-( The fries were not seasoned at all, so we barely ate any of them. My husband, and son, said their lemon pepper wings were good. My son ordered #11 which was wings and fish. They gave him strips, and wings. He wasn't pleased. So, since I had 3 pieces of fish with my dinner, I gave him a piece of mine. The fish didn't have any seasoning on them. I ate one piece, and put a lot of ketchup and tarter sauce on it. My Husband had a cheese burger, and wings. He said the burger didn't have any seasoning on it, but they did put alot of mayonnaise and ketchup on it. He also requested bacon on his sandwich. OMG, the bacon slice was soooo tiny. :-( Most likely, we won't be back.

    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 latte was ok but the cake was phenomenal. The latte had a decent flavor but it wasn't strong. Plus it tasted very grainy and milk-heavy, overpowering the coffee. My slice of cake was so moist and delicious without being too sweet. It was perfect. I'd definitely come back again more so for the desserts than the coffee. They have some indoor seating and a cozy table on the sidewalk just outside the front door.
