    Service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was clean. My friend ordered the cheeseburger and I ordered the rocket dog. We both got French fries and a chocolate peanut butter shake. Everything was delicious. The bun on the hot dog was very buttery.

    Service was awesome! The food was even better! We loved the #ketchupsmiles!! Would def go back!

    The atmosphere was fun. The food tasted good. The place was not that clean. Our waitress noticed when the air conditioner came on that it was blowing directly on us ( it was 20 degrees outside) she moved us so we would be more comfortable. The shakes were good. I feel like more cheese could have been on fries.

    Food after we ate
    Nick H.

    The fries are the best thing here for sure, but the obvious main attraction of this place is the novelty of it being an "old style diner". It has all sorts of cute little things inside like they serve ketchup in smiley faces on plates and stuff like that. If you're going in expecting good food though, lower your expectations as it's wholly unremarkable. They were also out of soda but they said it was because their drink machine was down, so I can't fault them on that. Our waiter also told me we couldn't get weirdly chewy chicken tenders taken off the bill, but after speaking to a manager we got them taken off. Worth a one time visit but wouldn't go again, as the novelty wears off after the first visit in my opinion.

    Ambiance was great service was awful waited until we where half way done with our meal to bring our drinks and never gave us one refill food was not even good

    We hungry, we went, and we stuffed! The only other Johnny Rockets I have been to was on a cruise, so it was nice to go to a restaurant that wasn't moving on the water and it's much bigger stand alone. It's the go to for a quick hamburger, hot dog, fries, or shakes. I may be missing a couple more things, but you get the point. The Rocket chili dog was the pick and it was a fine choice. It was topped with chili and cheese. No onions with a strawberry banana shake. Being on vacation has its benefits without the calories. Everything was great and did not regret each bite. The location is right in the downtown Atlanta area close by the museums, so it's within walking distance. The quick and friendly service was nice and we were able to get our meals in a reasonable amount of time. The crowd started coming in as we were leaving, so we lucked out with that.

    Tater tots

    Wasn't sure where to park visiting this location, so I parked and paid. First bite of tater tot was icey... sent back burger was a burger with no flavor. Server was nice and fixed what he forgot with order. Daughter liked the milkshake she tried burger and that was it. If you like steak and shake or Freddy's or Culver's this is your burger spot!

    Food was very good and so was the milkshakes. Had a reasonable wait time. It is very busy.

The burger was good but I just needed just a lil more seasoning on my burger and it would have been top notch. It just tasted bland. The onion rings were fried well the batter jus needed a lil seasoning tlc. Just a lil bit of somethen. I was lowkey disappointed but again it wasnt horrible jus slightly bland. I'd def. Come back again, id hus know to ask for extra seasoning or something.

This isn't just a gimmick, though; the execution is legit. You can order a single or a double, and each patty is smashed fresh to order, delivering those lacy, ultra-crispy edges that define a elite smashburger. It's cradled in a potato bun that gets toasted to a perfect light crisp. They even offer generous toppings at no extra charge. Do not skip the sides or the extras here. The fry seasoning is incredible, packed with savory flavor that makes them impossible to stop eating, and their onion rings are a solid choice too. But the real secret weapon is the Sassy Sauce (or "smash sauce"). Do yourself a favor and get a cup on the side for dipping. it's that good. While it's tucked inside a convenience store, there's actually dedicated patio seating set up right behind the gas station if you want to sit outside and eat fresh off the grill. Unconventional location, flawless execution. NFA delivers on every level. This was my 4th visit and the food and service is consistent everytime.

I'd take this over Mister Burger. NFA has that classic ketchup, mustard, and mayo flavor with its signature sauce, while Mister Burger is tasty but leans away from that traditional burger profile. I'm not ready to call it the best burger in Atlanta just yet. Fred's Meat & Bread at Krog Street Market is still my favorite, but Holeman & Finch is next on my list, so stay tuned. My only downside is the Dunwoody location, but honestly it wasn't bad. I made the trip from Buckhead and back in under 30 minutes. There were only two people ahead of me, and I had my food in about five minutes. I've heard the waits can get much longer during busy times, so just keep that in mind.

I loved the caramelized jalepeno slices since they added it beautiful hint of spicy sweetness to the dish. The bread has a nice chew and it does not get soggy fast. - CONS: Not that special. I dont know why it's "korean" since it tasted like a normal cheesesteak but with a few jalapenos. I also wish they added in more jalapenos (I got like 3). 2) Garlic Fries with Ranch: - PROS: Very nice texture with a crispy outside and fluffy inside that is not too dense. The flavor comes from the garlic mince that is on top. The ranch is like a mixture of an aioli and tartar sauce (I think they make it in house, correct me if I'm wrong). - CONS: Inconsistent texture as some of the fries were dense but a few had that good hollow crisp bite. Quite oily too. Overall, I enjoyed the cheesesteak but would probably skip the fries next time. I do believe it is good especially the bread. I don't think it is worth all the hype it gets, but it is good.

Every bite was outstanding and easily one of the best burgers I've had anywhere. The Parmesan Truffle Fries were every bit as memorable. Crispy, loaded with flavor, and perfectly seasoned, they became the center of attention at our table. In fact, the three of us were literally fighting over the last few fries. That's about the highest compliment a side dish can receive. The restaurant itself has a clean, modern atmosphere with a great vibe. The dining room is comfortable and inviting, the service was friendly and efficient, and the food arrived looking every bit as good as it tasted. If you're anywhere near Briarcliff Road, Hopdoddy is absolutely worth the visit. Come hungry, order the Double Bacon Jam Burger, and don't skip the Parmesan Truffle Fries. You'll understand why three grown adults were battling over the last fry. We'll definitely be back.
