My Bestfriend was in town and she mentioned she wanted some soul food. As I was thinking of where I…read morecould take her, I knew I had to take her to experience Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry. Sitting in the Downtown Fairburn area, Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry is super easy to get to and has convenient parking. I didn't tell her where we were going but I ensured she was in for a treat. Arriving at Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry, the lunch crowd had gathered so there were a few people ahead of us. The young lady on the cash register was efficient and had a flow going so the line was moving. The restaurant was clean and smelled of Childhood Sunday memories which had my stomach smiling. The smell of good fish, good grease, and good seasonings was all I could smell to the point that I had to have a 2 piece Whiting combo with fries. Once at the register, I ordered my 2pc Whiting with fries fried hard and a sweet tea, got my receipt and took a seat to await my order. The service provided was warm and pleasant and fit perfectly with the southern charm of the decor of the restaurant. Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry was spot on from visual to service and all things in-between. When they called my number, they delivered my plate to where I was sitting, opened it and my mouth, stomach, and eyes began to water. The food looked and smelled amazinggggggggg. I had no idea what kind of fish fry they use but it has to be homemade as the aroma of it is like nothing I have ever smelled before. I need this in a bag so I can use it at home. Taking my first bite of my fish, it was over. My soul was warmed, happy, and excited. And that was only the first bite. Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry delivered a mouth pleasing, soul stirring experience that started at the mouth and settled in the stomach. The fish was a 10/10. The fries were a 10/10. The seasoning was spot on. The crispness of my fried hard request was spot on. The hard on the outside didn't compromise the natural tenderness of the whiting and married well. To the owner, cook, and staff of Lady Fannie Mae's Ultimate Fish Fry, Thank you. You are appreciated.

When I walked in, the restaurant was busy, and it was obvious they had a lot of orders to handle. Even with all that was going on, Sydney greeted me with a warm smile, made eye contact, asked how my day was going, and made me feel like a valued customer. She was friendly, engaging, and never seemed overwhelmed despite leading the team and keeping everything running smoothly. That's the kind of customer service that leaves a lasting impression. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I can definitely see why this place stays busy. Great food is one thing, but outstanding employees like Sydney are what keep people coming back. Keep up the great work!

The sweet potato pie, was flavorless. It tasted like a bland custard. July 27th visit..tried the meatloaf again. It was horrible.

No simply how much do you want to tip.. Avoid this old national location at all Cost. The food is simply repulsive....and yes I gave a tip of 4.00 dollars to the cashier. And $10.00 dollars to the older cute waitress, who was so rude. She didn't say even thankyou..Avoid at all Cost.

I love this type of food, so after searching around and checking out the menu beforehand, I decided to give this place a try. I ordered the gumbo, which was very good, along with the crawfish étouffée. I finished everything off with the bread pudding, and that was amazing. Overall, the food definitely did not disappoint. The restaurant was less than half a mile from the hotel where I was staying, and there was plenty of parking. When you walk in, there's a dining area to the right with a nice outdoor view. As you continue farther inside, there are two larger dining areas with plenty of seating. You can also see into part of the kitchen where they're cooking, and there's a large bar area off to the right. The service was good and quick, and the food was excellent. Everything came out without a long wait, and I really enjoyed the whole meal. If you enjoy Louisiana, Cajun, or Creole-style food and you're in the area, I highly recommend checking this place out. I would definitely come back, especially for that bread pudding!

We were so eager to eat the food (which was OUTSTANDING) that we forgot to take pictures to post! We did take-out. We ordered: Catfish dinner Fried chicken wings dinner Smoked brisket dinner And two kids chicken tenders baskets Our sides were: collard greens, Mac-n-cheese, fried okra, lime beans and yams.

For the most part, people seemed to enjoy it so I was convinced I should check it out. The restaurant is located inside of the Hilton airport Hotel. There is a secure parking lot that requires you to pull a ticket when you enter. The restaurant will validate the parking ticket for you ! When I walked in I was greeted by a staff member and seated immediately. Shortly after I was seated my wait staff came over and introduced herself. She took my drink order and said she would allow me time to look over the menu. I asked my wait staff her thoughts on the Mac and cheese. I am picky about eating Mac and cheese from places. Most don't know how to make real Mac & cheese ( if you know what I mean)! She told me it was pretty solid. - As such I ordered the following: Crab bisque Smoked chicken wing plate served with two sides: Mac & cheeses and asparagus were my picks! The crab bisque did take a long time to come out. It was so delayed that my main course came out shortly after the soup. It was not ideal, but I made it work! The crab bisque was solid. I would order it again. The wing plate also exceeded my expectations! I was impressed with the mac and cheese. The asparagus were large, which was concerning to me! Like how did they get so big? Steroids? Nonetheless, they were cooked to perfection! I did get the banana pudding to go- this was the only item I would not order again! It was basic and I only took a few bites and ended up trashing it . Overall I would reconned this spot! Service was spot on- and for a hotel restaurant the food is pretty good!

Dinner was decent, the brisket was tender and their bbq sauce was tasty... their peach cobbler was a bit lacking... crusty was over battered and doughy to the point of almost being raw... very underwhelming to end a decent meals... breakfast service was non existent and coffee was rancid. They charged tip automatically and it made me feel like they forced me to pay for service I did not received. Not a great way to keep costumers... maybe that's why only hotel guests are forced to eat here... The lobby area and bar was well decorated and had a great ambience. But that's all it has... hotel lobby aesthetics :(

I opted for a veggie plate: cabbage (my portion was very skimpy) it was really good, sweet potatoes (they were delicious but too sweet for me), mac and cheese (it reminded me of velveeta with some regular cheese) it was ok and cornbread (it was delicious but the piece was tiny). I also ordered 4 friend green tomatoes, they were good but not cooked hard enough. I'll give them another shot though, mainly because they had good customer service and the restaurant looked really clean.
