Main dining area for ordering , bathrooms But no dining
Jeremy L.

Amazing local traditional flavor! They keep it simple, but the flavors are excellent. Everything is handcrafted. There's multiple occasions around town which shows they're constantly thriving and improving. I really like the catfish fillet tilapia. Fish and shrimp and chips are delicious! They also have fried chicken wings, which is great And I love that you can get fish sandwiches. The cheese sticks are also amazing. Pro tip: order online!! or be expected to wait 15 to 20 minutes. Parking can be difficult.

I have ZERO complaints.. I ordered the food and drove home 23 minutes away and the food was still hot! It was fried to perfection, it had the crisp and seasoning like the Lord himself made it. I have heard a lot about it and I was glad to try it. The customer service was typical Atlanta? That's why I'm giving 4stars instead of 5, but the food was superb. Go there to get your food to go, not to have a good time !

Hard as h___

I ordered chicken tenders from here and they were hard as a rock. The food tasted like it had been refried and was very disappointing.

What's that seasoning they sprinkle on everything?

I went to this establishment many years ago when it was called 285 Soulfood. The food was great…read morethen and it is great now. After seeing recent reviews online for the newer place, A1 Soul Food I decided to give it a try when I was in the area during lunch time. The area is a bit sketchy. It shares a lot with an vacant Dollar Tree & a few other businesses. Lock your car & be aware of your surroundings because you never know what you may see. That is honestly the way to be anywhere on MLK drive. When you get inside, the place is set up cafeteria line style with booths for dining in if you choose too. The prices are listed on the wall and they serve breakfast and lunch/dinner food with the prices listed clearly on the wall and daily specials also. You order by standing in line & they place your food into a styrofoam box & you can eat it there or take it home. I opted to take mine to go. I waited in line for about ten minutes which I hear is good for this place. I honestly did not know what I was going to order until I saw the fresh fried pork chops come out (please see my picture). Not only did they look fresh, but they were big, crispy & well seasoned. The meat only option included two and the price was more than right. I will be back for those again the next time I am in the mood for some soul food.

I came here on my lunch break and waited 45 minutes to get my food. There were two people working…read morethe line, someone at the register, and others in the kitchen. It took so long to get my food because everyone was ordering multiple plates for others. I got two turkey wings (it comes that way), mac, and broccoli casserole. You can tell that the food is made with love. They give you a lot of food for the price. Peach cobbler was also really good.

We finally made it to Gus's yall!! I've been wanting to…read morevisit this place for quite some time and today was our time to shine. Very convenient location!! As soon as we entered, we were greeted by Naee who informed us that we can sit anywhere we choose. Soon after we sat, we ordered. Hubby ordered a 2 piece white w baked beans and greens I ordered 2 piece dark w baked beans and fries. 2 fresh brewed sweet teas please !! There was a short wait. Roughly 20 minutes. I didn't mind. I knew the food was cooked to order. I enjoyed watching horse racing on their TV, and people watching. The dining area is spacious, and clean. As soon as our food was up, it was on! The chicken was so fresh, tender, and well seasoned. I love the spiciness level. The baked beans were ok. A lot of flavor, a little sweet. The greens were great! I loved the flavor and consistency. The fries were pretty great too! Fresh and crispy. We enjoyed so much that we were planning our next visit, while sitting there eating during this visit !! Lol The sweet tea was good. I added a little water to it. I would certainly order again. I snatched a slice of fresh baked sweet potato pie to eat later. Later came, it was good straight out the fridge, great heated up. In true saving the best for last spirit, NAEE !! She was amazing from beginning to end. Sweet, personable, and consistent. She answered all of our initial menu questions, checked on us at the perfect times and made sure we didn't want for anything. This place is a must visit! You will not be disappointed.

**Huge Difference Between the Dark and White Meat -- Do Yourself a Favor and Order the DARK MEAT!**…read more What We Ordered: 2 Pieces of Dark Meat: Absolutely amazing! The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. You could really taste the subtle spices in every bite. This chicken alone would have earned a 5-star rating! Coleslaw: Delicious, creamy, and the perfect side to complement the chicken. Baked Beans: Highly recommend! These were a standout side and definitely a must-try. 2 Pieces of White Meat: Unfortunately, this was a huge disappointment. The chicken was dry, chewy, and lacked flavor. Honestly, it tasted like a completely different restaurant made it! Mac and Cheese: Nothing special. It was lacking flavor and didn't really stand out. Fried Okra: Surprisingly tasty! This was a nice addition to the plate. **Overall Experience:** The dark meat was SO good that I would have easily given this place 5 stars based on that alone. However, the difference between the dark and white meat was mind-blowing. The dark meat was juicy, flavorful, and seasoned beautifully, while the white meat was dry and disappointing. I would never order the white meat again, but I would absolutely come back for the dark meat! If you're trying to decide which sides to get, definitely go with the *coleslaw and baked beans. Both were delicious and worth ordering! Service: The service wasn't the warmest or most welcoming, but the staff wasn't rude either. Since it was my first time visiting, I would have appreciated a little more guidance and information from the server about the menu and what they recommend. Atmosphere: A small, cozy, homey restaurant attached to the Peachtree Mall. It has a casual, comfortable feel. Final Verdict: ORDER THE DARK MEAT! If they can keep that same flavor and juiciness consistent across the menu, this place would be 5 stars from me all day. Just skip the white meat for now and make sure to get the coleslaw and baked beans on the side!

RC had approached her with a flier at a gas station, informing her that his restaurant had just opened up. Anyway, I'm ordering my meal, the same meal I always get each time I go. Fried fish (whiting), collards and the baked beans (unmatched). And he goes, "What would you like to drink?".... I'm like, "What do you have?" (Assuming the usual. Sweet tea. Lemonade... I was probably gonna go with sweet tea. ) He lists sweet tea of course, and then hes like, "Kool-Aid, coke, sprite" - IM LIKE WAIT. DID YOU SAID KOOL-AID?......... He's like, "Yeah??..." Im like, "what flavor???.... "Purple?...." I had never heard of that at a restaurant, and quiet frankly, that's all I needed to know. At this point, I literally go nowhere else for soul food. Also, RC is amazing. Really good guy, and his team offer the best service as well. A job well done, always.

Only two tables occupied and we were told…read morethat if we dined in the dining area and stayed after 7, we would be charged $10 per person cover charge for the live band. I'm glad we were given the info beforehand so we can make sure we are done and out the door by 7! The bartender was our server and he was very friendly but since he was doing two roles, the service was fairly slow. We didn't fault him for that, just giving a heads up in case you get the bartender too. Anyways, we ordered the fried green tomatoes app, the fried catfish and grits, and peach glazed pork chop with sweet potato and green beans! All the food was delicious and seasoned perfectly! We were stuffed so decided on chocolate cake and peach cobbler to go. We did not care for the dessert unfortunately but we would definitely be back for the food!

I've been here twice, had amazing experiences, and didn't pen a review. 2015, my gf who lives in Atlanta recommended while I was visiting on a work trip. Great recommendation. We had a great time catching up over delish food items while listening to jazzy tunes. I even saw a few famous folks while here as well. 1st impressions are important and this one was grrrreeeeaaattt!! Welp on 7.26.2024, Hubby and I visited and sat at a high top at the bar area. We were greeted by Joseph who was pretty attentive, making great recommendations. We came in for drinks and ordered the following Down South Peachtree Tea ... & then I HAD to order the Catfish Nuggets. The drinks and my catfish were all amazing! Speaking of amazing, great bands all the time!! This place is the total package for the soul. We have a trip coming up sooner than later to the A and we are certainly returning!!
