All around a great experience. The food was delicious--crispy without being oily. The wings tasted great and weren't overly salty, even with the double flavors. The yams had the perfect amount of sweetness, and the mac and cheese was nice and cheesy. The catfish tasted very clean with no fishy taste or smell at all. Everything tasted fresh. The banana pudding was also really good. I don't think there were actual banana pieces in it, but it still had great flavor. On top of that, the service was excellent. The woman taking my order was very kind and welcoming, and she was more than happy to answer the questions I had about the menu. Overall, a really good experience and I'll definitely be coming back. read more

The ribs, fish, grilled shrimp, and hot link were good. I liked the seasoned rice, but my Blaisian nieces didn't. They prefer regular steamed rice. The greens are sweet. My brother liked them and my friend didn't. The chicken sandwich was a bit too crispy for my 21 year old nephew. It was his birthday. Things are good, but we won't order the Wings next time. The restaurant wasn't busy that night. So, we had plenty of room for guests and service was great! The ambiance was chill with some nice smooth jams playing. read more

This place has been my fav wings now for 10 years!!! I was sad when I was vegan and didn't eat this for years :( but IM SO BACK and I'm so happy that it tastes the same, you know sometimes you have something for the sake of nostalgia??? And then it doesn't smack the same :( WELL NOT HERE! If anything I feel like they got better, the wait time isn't as long anymore! And the service even though I think it's new ownership??? Is still amazing and the people who work there def make it feel like a Home type of vibe rather than just coworkers... anyways thanks Hotlanta!! read more

Okay, let me just say... when you go somewhere on Friday and find yourself back again by Sunday, you already know it's a winner. We stopped by Friday night and everything was hitting. I had the mac & cheese ribs and catfish--super flavorful, cooked just right, and definitely satisfying. My daughter kept it classic with potato salad, yams, and wings, and she cleaned her plate with zero complaints (which says a lot!). My husband ordered the crispy chicken wings, Yams, and mac & cheese, and was just as impressed. Fast forward to Sunday... I couldn't stay away. I went for the crispy chicken wings, mac & cheese, hotlink sandwich, plus cornbread and peach cobbler. Listen--the cornbread alone is worth the trip. Moist, sweet, and just all-around delicious. And that peach cobbler? The perfect sweet ending. Everything we've tried so far has been fresh, flavorful, and made with care. Portions are solid, and the consistency between visits really stood out to me. Safe to say this spot is officially in our rotation! read more

Had to make a late night stop after getting of the plane in Ontario. Well worth the trip and I really recommend the lemon pepper flavor and or medium. I ordered the 10pc wings which allows for two sides. While I was not a huge fan of the potato salad I did enjoy the Mac n cheese. I ordered a side of cornbread which melted in my mouf. Overall I would recommend this spot for a late night and the place can probably seat close to 4-5 parties of four. The customer service was excellent and I hope to try other things on the menu. read more

First time trying it, and I was left wanting more. I will definitely be back soon. The flavor of the Mac and cheese was soooo good, the wings were perfectly cooked and sauced and their ranch was top tier. I can't wait to try more of their food because their seasoning is on point. The place itself is very clean and organized and the service was great. read more

This restaurant is so disappointing. the food isn't bad at all but the wait time is ridiculous. I called in my order because I know how long they take. I waited 30 minutes to arrive to the restaurant just to wait another 45 mins because my breakfast still was not ready. I don't understand why the breakfast takes so long smh read more

The food here is truly delicious. Definitely worth the money. I will be paying them another visit. For the record we had: Combo 1) Fish, shrimp, & wings 2) Ribs, wings, & shrimp Sides Cornbread, homemade potato salad, mac & cheese, greens, yams and hush puppies. Red Kool Aid and a soda. WORTH IT, WORTH IT read more

The foods good BUT, these people do not know how to use DoorDash. Apparently some girl came in and they just gave her my food and then they wouldn't give me my order because "they had already sent it out". At least fix your mistake. Go in person or not at all. Foolishness. read more

The food was very delicious hands down the best soul food you'll get in the entire inland empire.

10/10 Experience at Hotlanta Wings & Things! I just visited Hotlanta Wings & Things for the first time today and let me tell you--it did not disappoint! I ordered the 4-piece red snapper with mac & cheese and collard greens, and everything on that plate was absolutely amazing. The collard greens were cooked just right--tender, flavorful, and seasoned to perfection without being overpowering. The mac & cheese? Bomb. It had the perfect cheese-to-noodle ratio--not too cheesy, not too dry--just creamy and baked to golden perfection. Now let's talk about that red snapper. It was everything. The seasoning was spot on bold but not too salty and the crust had that perfect light crisp without being overly fried. The fish itself was fresh, flaky, and juicy. Every bite hit. I also got their Kool-Aid lemonade mix and whew it was so refreshing! Sweet, tangy, and ice cold exactly what you need to wash the meal down. On top of all that, the customer service was outstanding. I got to talk to the owner, and he was so kind and patient, especially knowing it was my first time. He walked me through the menu, made me feel welcome, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his business and his customers. I love seeing Black-owned businesses thriving, and this place deserves all the love. I'll definitely be back! If you haven't been go. Like, now. read more

Doc always makes sure the food is hot and fresh and they're staff is always so nice and helpful! The ribs, fish and chicken combo let's you pretty much get a taste of all the goods. I got the ribs, honey bbq chicken wings and fried catfish nuggets with Mac n cheese and collard greens for the two sides that come with the combo. Good food every time! I always try to stop here for food whenever I'm in riverside since I live in Long Beach. Been coming here for a more than a few years now and will keep coming back. read more

So I was told from a co-worker to try this place. Let me just say I was not happy about my chicken there was no seasoning meaning no flavor, how do you make chicken without seasoning. GEZZZZ I asked for my chicken to be extra crispy and it looked like it was but it wasn't! The chicken didn't have any flavor besides the sauce. I will not be back. The customer service was not bad we even met the manager. I will say my daughter said that the shrimp was seasoned and good. read more

Excellent good because it's fresh not fast, portions were great as well. We had Ribs, Chicken Wings, Shrimp, Mac and Cheese, Potato salad, yams and catfish We definitely will be back, over all score (8/10) read more

Mostly great, I usually do the shrimp, wings and ribs with mac n cheese and greens. Breakfast shrimp and grits. My only complaint is they freeze their sides and you can taste the back flavor of other foods. The bbq sauce is fire FYI, but again, don't want frozen leftover ribs. I go here a lot, you can find your balance...it's good comfort food read more

You know, it's been awhile since I've been here. I was just telling someone on a thread how I never had to wait long for food and that must've been the kiss of death because I had my first 30-40 min wait. I was coming out of the AMC at the Galleria, placed my order before leaving the theatre. Took about 15 minutes to get there, 5 minutes before being helped and being told my food would be another 15 minutes. So about 35 minutes total. Fine. I ordered a sampling of the stuff that matters to me at soul food spots-a piece of red snapper, catfish and mac n cheese. Plus their catfish nuggets. I remember I used to crave this stuff and would often pick up a late night plate for maybe a week in a row. I also remember something tasting pretty fishy here. Well, the snapper had a fishy taste and smell to it. Enough for me to spit it out. The Mac was pretty good, just didn't taste too warm. Nearly like it was warmed in a microwave for a bit. The catfish nuggets I could've done without and the piece of catfish I had was whatever. As for the environment, it's cool but not too big a space for dine in. Maybe one or two medium size groups, 10-12 people total. But this place is a known soul food spot with a pretty dedicated customer base. I get the feeling here that whether food or service, it is what it is, nothing is gonna change. I will say they did include an extra piece of fish as a courtesy for the long wait which was nice. read more

The food was a 20/10! I ordered the cat fish, shrimp & rib plate with yams and mac & cheese. It was so good I didn't leave anything on the plate. My daughter is 2 1/2 and she liked the cat fish, and you know kids are picky eaters! The service was amazing, they treated us like family! I will be going back! read more

First time trying this restaurant and we were very pleased. Both of us had the pork rib dinner with collards and mac n cheese. Ribs were tender. Greens were flavorful. Could not eat all we were given. Leftovers tomorrow! Prices are reasonable. Huge selection of menu items. 100% fans. Will be back soon. read more

Downloaded yelp just to give this place a five star. The wings are immaculate and the steamed broccoli is delicious. My friend beside me said "the sandwich was so #%^*ing good". The fries are perfect, not soggy, not burnt. Service is amazing and first-time friendly. Did I mention amazing prices? Clean dining area with popular music. Love, love, love. Wish this was across the street from where I live, I'd be here every afternoon. Will come back when I'm out here!! read more

This place is not that great . It's convenient if you want something in the IE area but the service has always been consistently bad. Good luck getting your order on time if you don't call it in, because they take 10 years. The food is subpar. The wings are always so oily and the sides are never satisfying. I am too nervous to try anything else on this menu. If you want soul food, there are places better than this in the inland empire. Don't waste your time. read more

I ordered here from door dash, I ordered wings, Macaroni cheese and cheese and baked beans. I didn't get my baked beans. I called the store and the ladies response was "it only comes with one side" I order beans extra and I told her and her reply was "oh well, what do want me to do about it's?" With an attitude! I told her I paid extra and again she said "oh well". So they just stole my money. An when I asked to speak to a manager she said "no you can speak to me" read more

Hotlanta more like hot garbage $22.00 for garbage food. Even though the service was great the food sucks. I ordered the ribs fish and chicken combo with Mac and cheese and potato salad. What I was given was salty food the fish was dry no flavor, the chicken "wings" weren't even wings they gave me chicken strings, the ribs were drenched in sauce still no flavor, the mac and cheese salty and dry. Only good things were the potato salad and hush puppies. I wanted soul food left with my soul starving and my blood pressure high. I Threw away half my plate. I wouldn't waste more money on this food. read more

We as people have to do better. I ordered Wings and fries then had the nerve to order that Sugar color red icey. Hotlanta be accountable Stop killing our people for gain. I think they used the whole box of salt and a 5lb bag of sugar. I think it was cooked to perfection just not edible read more

Some of the best soul food I've had in my LIFE! Not even over exaggerating! And the prices are fair can't beat it! Coming back for sure

The service was great, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting with 70 & 80 music playing making it a truly memorable dining experience. We loved the jumbo shrimp, wings and fries. Thank You Poo for treating us like family. I highly recommend HOTLANTA for breakfast lunch or dinner read more

1st time here and I'll definitely be back! I've been let down by all the big chain chicken wing spots and decided to swing by this locally owned spot for an order of wings. I was not disappointed - in fact upon walking I was greated with a smile by both gals at the counter and then Doc the owner came out from the kitchen and greated me with a firm handshake and a very sincere thank for coming in. You won't find this level of authenticity and the big chain spots. Now on to the food. I got the 20 piece wing order and not only were they fresh, hot, and cooked. They were not greasy at all. I prefer my lemon pepper with a crispy non-greasy outside and juicy and moist. Doc and crew have them just like that - dialed in . Doc shared some ribs that were juicy and fall of the bone amazing! I also had the lemon cake for dessert. Soft delicious and moist. Hotlanta - you have a new loyal customer! Sincere thank you to everyone for taking care of me today. read more
