10 out of 10 fried chicken and fries. The fried chicken was HUGE, so crispy but also nudity and flavorful at the same time. The loaded fries were also amazing, but I think getting regular fries would be just as good because of the seasoning that already comes with it. I also felt the same about the Jolly Rancher sandwich that I ordered. The extra toppings were a bit too filling and heavy for me and I think getting the sandwich either with just chicken or chicken and coleslaw would've been better. I still finished everything though because they were that good. I've learned that going simple here is best because the chicken and fries are already good on their own! Definitely coming back to try their other menus

Java Saga has been on my must go list for a while! I literally pass by it every time I'm on Buford Highway. I finally decided to go one Saturday shortly after they opened. I decided to get the Tiger's Blood latte (hot) and one of their sandwich combos with fries. The latte, which had brown sugar syrup in it, was delicious. That Taiwanese fried chicken sandwich was next level! I mean, the chicken was fried to perfection, and the toppings, which included a fried egg, avocado, bacon, cheese, and a special sauce was divine! The only thing I didn't like were the fries. They had an interesting texture and flavor that I wasn't a fan of. Otherwise, I really enjoyed everything!

I don't know what type of hex is in this ABC sandwich but it is divine. It isn't one of the nation's best sandwiches for nothing. I highly suggest eating this in one sitting as the flavor isn't the same as leftovers. That's all I can really say lol. The food is cooked fresh to order and it is a large portion so this will probably be the only thing you eat that day. The location is a little hole in the wall and has like two seats on the inside but additional seating outdoors if you want to sit and enjoy your food on location. While we were waiting for our sandwiches a lady came and picked up a big order of fried chicken, obviously for a party or large gathering and I will say it smelled divine---maybe I should try that for my party contributions, lol. All in all please go visit. Service is courteous but do not be in a rush because again-the food is cooked to order.

Really good Taiwanese fried chicken at huge portions and friendly portions! We got two of their ABC Taiwanese fried chicken sandwiches which came with fries, and I also ordered a papaya milkshake. The milkshake was really good!! Creamy and sweet with papaya flavor, a Taiwanese classic! For the fried chicken, the chicken was LARGE and outsized the bread by a good amount. It was super crunchy yet really moist on the inside, and the crisp on the outside was really nice. It was well seasoned as well! I would say we preferred maybe getting more slaw/ a tender instead of a sandwich, as the bread and slaw were smaller in proportion to the chicken. The fries and the sauce were delicious!! I would get an extra serving of fries. For $13 or so dollars, a really great price for really good food! There is limited seating indoors, and a nice outdoor seating with plastic covering for a bit of protection from the elements. Cashiers were kind but it is mostly self serve, but they bring the food out to you. Should you need anything, they have it inside, including hand wipes!! Definitely returning and see a lot of people coming, this spot is definitely a favorite!!!

Everything was super good! The slaw was generously dressed and perfect with the mango habenero sauce on the ABC, just like the friendly, patient and helpful employee said. She knew just what to say. The Jolly Rancher was our favorite over all. We also ordered the exotic fries, they came out hot, perfectly crisp and seasoned perfectly. Drinks stood out too as a must order, the iced Chai tea latte was good for sure, the iced ginger honey was even better and the best was the iced strawberry matcha laatte.

Inside Java Saga it's casual, with limited seating inside although there are also a few table outside. The food is great! I really enjoyed the flavor of the chicken and the seasoning on the fries, and when they say that some of their seasonings are spicy they mean it, which is also something I appreciate. The staff were super friendly and helpful in guiding us to the right selections.

So I can get my list for a while. You come and it's more sandwich spot than coffee spot but that's okay. It's not big at all but at the same time there are some spaces to be able to sit and eat (a couple indoor and a few outdoor). The service was good ... My first time going the person at the register was very patient and explained the items to me. It's not like there are that many but still lol. Abc chicken sandwich (combo) - So the combo comes with fries and a drink. The drink is not a fountain drink, but the drink is a bottled drink in the cooler. The fries are heavily seasoned to near perfection. They are crispy and seasoned and you don't even really need ketchup on them if you don't want. It comes with a sauce, I really wasn't sure what it was so I really can't give you the exact description of it but it wasn't bad but I rather prefer ketchup if I was going to probably take up the fries but the fries were good on their own! Now this chicken sandwich is going to have you looking at it sideways! It was perfectly crispy, sauce was on there. Spread very intensefully, the bun was soft and not overly hard or anything like that. The sandwich was spicy and had a hell of a lot of flavor to it! It was a really good sandwich! It was basically too much for the bun. The cutlet that they use was falling out of the bun and that made it even better! It came with pickles on the bottom of it where the sauce was as far as the positioning of that and the bun. So just keep that in mind. But this sandwich was absolutely awesome. I want to note that the sandwich comes as fried or grilled so I've had both. The fried one is actually good because of the savory mixed with the crunch. But if you want to not navigate the fried chicken because of oil or cholesterol, the grilled chicken is also really good as well. You throw the coleslaw on top of that, and you are golden! Diggity Dan bing - This is a crepe with eggs, cheese and bacon... Because you wouldn't know by the name LOL. So it's basically the crepes that are cut in half and served in a little box as the picture shows. They are thin as they should be, but I added bacon to mine which is only $2 more. But that made it extra savory. It was really good, I wouldn't say that you should get it as a main dish because you'll definitely be hungry, but it definitely had a good taste to it. Overall I see no flaw in this spot. It was super dope and I would and will go back again. The chicken sandwich was worth it! I got mine spicy so I had a little kick to it, they are definitely going to make me want to go back. Now. Just make sure you go back. Trying to go at a time where hopefully it won't be full as far as seating goes, but either way, the sandwich is worth it. It lives up to a lot of the hype!

This sandwich was good as hell!!! For yearsss the chicken caesar sandwich at Zaddy's has been my favorite sandwich in ATL and finally it has a rival! I ordered the Jolly Rancher sandwich (spicy) and a Dirty Chai Latte (hot). I ordered everything to go and it came out pretty quick. When I got home and finally bit into the sandwich I was in love at 1st bite. The chicken was perfectly crispy and well seasoned, the bacon perfect thickness & crisp, the slightly runny egg & avocado made the perfect sauce, and everything is encased in soft sesame buns. The whole thing is just dead on. And pretty filling. Great 1st visit!!

Saw this place on TikTok and to my surprise it was right down the street from where I was! Java Saga is a pretty small cafe & restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. This place is clearly very popular as every seat was taken, although there aren't many to begin with. I got the ABC sandwich combo that came with fries and a drink. I believe it was around $17. The sound was incredible. The chicken was large and well seasoned and came with some fresh slaw on the sandwich. The sandwich came apart probably due to the moistness of the sauce and slaw but I didn't care at that point. The fries are crinkle cut--pretty good and it comes with A LOT of fries! I'll definitely be back.

My third review of this place and let me just say - everyone absolutely needs to go there right now. When I first ate at Java Saga years ago, my sentiment was they were good tasting and unique but they were life changing. I now can proudly say that they are. If you're having a good day with beautiful weather, Java Saga can make it even better. If you're having a terrible day, Java Saga can make it seem not so bad. Let's talk food - all their menu items are tasty but here are the standouts to me. 1) The ABC - it's their chicken sandwich with their slaw. The sharp, sweet taste of the slaw contasts with the crispy, tangy chicken for a satisfying bite in every bite. 2) The Loaded Fries - I eat a lot of loaded fries and I think these might be the best in their presentation and taste. The fries are crinkle cut, perfectly crispy and do not get soggy. There is bae sauce and mango habenero sauce on them along with melted cheese and chopped bacon. The ratios of each are all pretty much perfect. Everytime I come, I upgrade my Exotic fries to these. I honestly can't not get them if I am here on location. 3) Eggcited Crossaint - I had this item today. It was the last item I had for menu completion and honestly I think this their best sandwich in a fantastic lineup. I got it with the bacon. The flaky, buttery, soft crossaint contrasted wonderfully with the cold egg salad and the hot thick bacon. It likely is going to my go-to when I stop in. Go. Go now. And then go again

4 for me and 5 for my husband so I'll round it up to 5! Ordered the ABC sandwich, chick bits (popcorn chicken), danbing (egg crepe), and lu rou fan (braised pork rice). I ordered online before they opened for 11:15am pick up. When I got there at 11:16 there was already a decent line for lunch but luckily my food was ready. The sandwich was very good - refreshing slaw and crispy yet juicy chicken. Huge piece of chicken too! Would definitely get this again. Popcorn chicken was exactly how we like it - with fried basil which some places don't add. The danbing was fried which is not what we are used to in Taiwan. It was good but just not as expected, but I guess this place is more fusion than traditional. Which leads to the lu rou fan. The fatty pork belly and flavor was just how my husband likes it. The quail eggs were different but glad there were a couple there. I didn't like the pickles - usually there are yellow radish pickles but these were American style pickles. My husband didn't mind though! Overall a great to-go spot (not much seating), reasonable prices, and will definitely return.

Love this place and will always come back! Chicken is HUGE, crunchy, sooo flavorful. For $12, the combo is a steal. We ordered the Basic Chick with mango habanero sauce and their Exotic fries with an apple soda. Service was quick and food came out quickly!
