    This food is so u good! I get this lunch special pretty frequently. It's the Cascade drip flavor.

    The picture doesn't do it justice, but these wings are HUGE!!!
    Vernon B.

    Asked for the smallest wings available and if there wasn't, please let me know. In the past, upon making this request, it hasn't been a problem. The wings I received look like big whole wings, that were cut in half. The wings darn near look like Turkey wings. When I spoke to the manager about the problem, I was told this is smallest they have-totally disregarding my original request to let me know. If the manger wasn't an older lady, I would have demanded my money back. Also, on the receipt it clearly states "Smallest Wings Possible" and "Small Wings No Big Wings." The problem I have is there was no regard for my original request and then the lack to try and make the situation right or lack of concern. I patronize this establishment too much to try and support, but this experience has me feeling some type of way. From now on I'll just go to South Cobb, where this isn't a problem.

    Food was not good. We asked for crispy wings but they were so hard that we couldn't get any meat off about 6 of them. It was toooo crispy! Please do NOT ask for crispy We had 13 fries (the other person counted them) Usually you have a good amount-Nope We had no condiments on our table. We had to use the other table(which the lady was mad about)-and finally the server borrowed one from another table. Service ummm maybe it was tooo many people on the patio-lady said I'll be back because I have other people inside (maybe she was the only one) WE* must do better Ambiance-It's like all the others* I wish establishments like this would take what we write in consideration. I wish they would reach out to truly see where the disconnect started. It's unfair that we pay a 20% gratuity for poor food and service! I won't return......

    The food here is delicious! I don't know about other people experience I know for myself! I got a order on 9-13-2025 through Uber Eats. I saw this location from my Uber driver on the app! Previously yrs ago I got a order from the Lawrenceville Hwy location that closed down before they opened up at the Tucker GA location the food was okay not memorable. I never visited the Tucker GA location because of the bad reviews! I passed the other location around the corner from Mary Macs in midtown dropping and picking up my sister from the MegaBus for years ago I never stopped by. The business has had a run since 1984 with people cooking like this at this location I can see why! Hopefully they are cooking like this at every location and can take notes from here! These people need a raise and every location needs to train under them! I got the lemon pepper wings with the fries and blue cheese! Creme De la Creme!

    Chicken fingers & fries
    Kyja W.

    My work ordered takeout from here so I can't speak on service or ambiance. I chose the chicken fingers with fries. For my sauces, I selected honey mustard as well as BBQ, and also asked for ketchup packets and a side of hot sauce. I absolutely LOVE the rare mod of ordering "crispy fries," so when I saw that as an option, I was stoked. The crinkle cut fries were crispy as promised, and satisfying! As for the chicken fingers, they were very dry... but nothing sauce can't fix! I alternated dunks into the BBQ, Hot Sauce, and Honey Mustard--all were enjoyable. This place is a very no-fuss, casual sports bar, so taper your expectations and you'll enjoy it for what it is. I ate every last bite of this box.

    Wings and fries $25.99
    Jeneen P.

    10/10 I truly recommend! The food, the service and even the line dancing on Wednesday was a vibe! We went with the wings 20 piece. Have teriyaki have lemon pepper $25.99 but it was so worth it. Wings were very flavorful and the fries that came with it was outstanding. I ordered a margarita $5 and later a red stripe. My bestie ordered the catfish nugget basket. I will most definitely be back on a Wednesday. My only downfall was the air was not on and it was warm on there. JR, crickets at Cascade has been open for a few years now at the closing sometime ago. I can tell that a lot of hard work was put in to back opening of the restaurant/sports bar and it was a success. I will return. I just want them to turn the air on. Thanks JR. Crickets, be back soon...

    I was carving some wings and fingured this would be a good spot. I used to frequent the JR Crickets in Midtown but since moving to the Southside, this is around the corner. The wings were crispy with just the right amount of sauce; I usually get extra wet (IYKYK) but this was just right. The drinks were strong and flavorful; bartender must've been in a good mood that day. We went because we thought there was going to be triva on Thursdays, but there was none, just something to be aware of. Parking is free and the restaurant has been renovated with clean bathrooms and a nice patio. Overall, I'll definitley return. Solid choice for wings and good drinks.

    10 Piece College Wings, fries, medium blue cheese, celery on the side. Ketchup was thick as a mf but it was some type of Heinz Healthy lol.

    Soooo, if you old old Atlanta, you remember what this place used to be and we adjusted. I would lying if I did not acknowledge that is was loooonnggg over due for new owners and some upgrades and that's just what has happened!! I love this particular JR Crickets location and the Original downtown(even tho wayyy too much going on at that one these days)...y'all can keep the rest of em (in my Atlanta voice). But that's also due to the fact that these two are most familiar. We enjoyed the ambiance, the live DJ and the beautiful up such as the marble style floors(which is rare for a bars set-up, and the various TVs for ease of watching the Texas vs NO game). The food was typical JR Crickets fashion but there were a few things that I want to call out: 1. The food was not hot; well sat at the bar and maybe it wasn't picked up fast enough but the fries where for sure room temp. If the food was hot it would have been a 500 out of a 100. 2. The mixed drinks are weak af, so I would stick to the "straight" light chaser. I had the peach tea and my sis had the mixed Long Island that the bartender Alicia stated she had mixed a few days prior so we took a chance on it. Titos and Jack are 6 dollars everyday so it makes more sense to get a double of these guys instead of anything mixed. 3. 20% gratuity on ALL dine in orders, so read read read. We did not tip over as the service was service. Nothing extra just to the point...I feel like had we'd complained about the room temp food or the mixed drinks being weak, it would not have been received well by our bar tender. Nonetheless, I would most definitely go back and frequent...it's got more pluses annnnddd this is one of my favorite spots to frequent when home

(I wish I still had the old pictures). It was edible, but the first time was WAY better. It was heavily HEAVILY seasoned to the point of being. My hands were stained red. The shrimp had a nice crunch. The potatoes didn't look great, but the flavor was good. The catfish was bland. One thing we really did not enjoy was the corn. The taste/texture was that of corn that was just sitting in the pot, boiling for hours until someone ordered it. Soggy. I was really excited about the side of fried crab legs and they weren't even in the bag. The attached receipt literally said to double check and still, missing. Additionally, my delivery person said that when she arrived at the restaurant, they said they "lost" the order and she had to wait another 20 minutes for it to be made.

Even though I don't live far from this restaurant, I've always had my food delivered through Uber Eats. I wasn't expecting much the first time I ordered from them, but I was pleasantly surprised. The quality has been consistent every time. The portions were large and seasoned and cooked to perfection. I'm getting hungry just writing about it. I usually can't eat the whole meal at once because it's so much food. I have no complaints at all with any of my orders, though I did have issues with the Uber Eats delivery person the last time. But that's not Krab Kingz fault. I'm rating them a five. Oh, Krab Kingz is not open on Mondays and Tuesdays. But Wednesday - Sunday, it opens at 11:30 am and stays open until either 9 or 10 pm.

Our daughter spent the first few minutes waving at the staff, and they genuinely lit up every time -- such a warm, welcoming vibe right from the jump. Starters We kicked things off with the she‑crab soup, and that's when we knew the meal was going to be special. Tons of rich crab flavor and chunks of crab. The crispy shrimp toast was another hit -- crunchy, savory, and a great pairing with the soup. We also ordered the Baker's Dozen oysters, chef's selection. All 13 were fresh, clean, and briny in the best way. Next up: the Spanish octopus, and honestly... top five octopus dish we've had. Cooked perfectly -- tender, melt‑in‑your‑mouth texture. The salsa macha added just the right amount of heat, and the marcona almonds brought a great crunch with the cilantro, lime, and mint brightening everything up. What a beautifully composed dish. We finished with the Halibut and Lady peas. The Halibut was topped with lobster and served with a lobster butter sauce, chives, and capers. Rich, buttery, flaky, and perfectly cooked. The lady peas (fava beans, asparagus, and a generous mound of blue crab) were another standout. So much flavor, but everything complemented each other instead of competing.

Over the years we've seen things decrease especially at the optimist. The hosts were great and they always give us great service but the food had been the lacking the last couple of services where the she crab soup lacked crab, the swordfish over cooked multiple times. This time in particular we ordered the whole lobster and was offered to have it taken out of the shell for us. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND. When we got the lobster we got a full tail but one claw and no knuckles. When we addressed with the server, she argued with us that that's how a lobster is and that there could be more meat hidden on the plate. It felt like she thought we were there to just get more food by saying "so what do you want, more meat" but if we had it in the shell we would have received our full portion. The manager on duty tried to make it up to us by comping the lobster but it was more than that. After going back and forth with the server we just wanted the check to leave. The manager on duty insisted to give us the lobster and take it home. The server wasn't very polite and argued with us about the lobster. I wish I remembered the servers name With that said, the amount of money we have spent there over the years, it's unfortunate that that will be our last time going to the Optimist.

The hushpuppies are really good but not worth a trip alone. The catfish was fried to perfection and seasoned good. The fries did not have any salt or seasoning at all which is weird since they are called cajun fries on the menu. They only have bottled water and all draft drinks cost $2 per refill. I got a pineapple lemonade which tasted good and house made. The cup was pretty small for a $5 drink and no refills. I would visit this place 2-3 more times if I lived close.

On my last few visits, I've ordered the Texas Redfish Pontchartrain, so after reviewing the menu, I decided to go that route again. The server informed me that they were out of that fish and offered me the option of choosing another fish. We discussed the trout and the snapper. As long as it was filet, I did not have a preference. The server recommended snapper. I agreed. The entire meal was really delicious from the sauce to the fish and shrimp. I was charged à la carte for everything on the plate down to the sauce for that meal, which was confusing because I thought they were giving me the option to order the same meal and swap the fish. Instead, they charged me as if it was my request to rearrange the meal and charged me for the fish swap, the sauce, etc. The server did make some adjustments so it aligned to the pricing of the meal somewhat.

I was highly disappointed because I am a virtual girly. My license is now on my phone. I have had so much scamming happening with my real cards - I only carry my digital wallet with me. I had to go on the website, purchase a gift card, and then pay for my meal that way. It was insane. Just imagine if I didn't have that option or a physical card? Would I be in jail ? Just a little uncanny that in 2026, this wasn't an option. The staff did advise it was coming so that's good to know but be aware they only take physical payments at the moment! Will definitely visit again in the future.
