    10 Piece Wings
    Cory R.

    I was handling some business at the State Bar of Georgia which is right across the street and I decided to try this place out. I have seen this place for at least a decade. Nothing says Atlanta food like Just Around the Corner.... This place is literally just around the corner from all things Atlanta - Centennial Olympic Park, Mercedes Benz Stadium/State Farm Arena, CNN Center, College Football Hall of Fame, and Downtown Atlanta.  Place is perfect for those Atlanta tourist and equally perfect for residents. The inside is small and is definitely a hole in the wall establishment. We all know that hole in the wall establishment make the best wings and sandwiches and this place did not disappoint. I ordered 10 mild wings and and seasoned fries with a side of ranch. The weather was great and I enjoyed

    "Chili Cheese Hotdog"
    Rob K.

    As soon as I walked in I was disgusted. Against my better judgment I decided to try it out due to the 4 Star yelp rating. I ordered a chili cheese dog with a sprite. I watched them make my hot dog then handle the toppings without gloves. I'm still hoping for the best hotdog of my life due to the other good yelp reviews. When I opened the hot dog up to enjoy it I found the most disgusting microwaved hot dog topped with one piece of Kraft singles, and a spoonful of what tasted like bushes baked beans.

    The owner and cook explained that being such a small spot he has to make the food with extra love. Everything is handmade. He makes fresh hamburgers every morning and the White Fish is fresh & delicious. Prices are 1/2 of what a fast food spot would charge. It's nothing fancy just great tasting food.

    Stopped by and had the jerk chicken fresh off the grill. Perfectly cooked and juicy, just the right amount of spice, and super delicious. Owner/cook was friendly and kind. Too bad I don't live in Atlanta to come by more often.

    Bacon Cheddar Burger with fries (extra)
    Aletha H.

    Ehhhhhh... I really wanted to like this place, especially after so many glowing Yelp reviews. I've always wondered how the food was at this restaurant from passing by it for hundreds of years. Today, I decided to bypass the other options in the area and finally check it out. It has that grimey, "food spot" look that normally yields delicious food so my expectations were heightened. Initially, I was going to order the gyro but another review turned me off so I opted for the bacon cheddar burger instead. I was surprised to learn that a side is no longer included in the price and is charged a la carte... no biggie but my meal was now not quite as cheap as I was expecting it to be. Lol All of the ingredients were fresh, including the beef patty. The man who took my order was nice and handled everything on the grill while another cook prepared my food to be served. The second cook was also very friendly and even caught the fact that the first cook failed to put the cheddar on my bacon cheddar burger. The taste of the food is where things got fuzzy. It wasn't a bad burger but it also wasn't great. I don't know if it was the patty or the sauce but something had a weird, slightly sour taste that started to make my tummy hurt halfway through the burger. The fries looked promising but ultimately were forgettable. For the price I ended up paying, I'd probably come out going elsewhere for slightly better quality.

    Great lunch spot! Super friendly staff, great food, quick service. Got the fish sandwich (amazing), Philly cheesesteak (also very good), and the cheeseburger (rave reviews from my friend). Very limited seating indoors but outside seating is shaded under trees so it's wasn't terrible on a 97 degree hot summer day with the breeze.

The only reason I can't give them the full 5 stars is because they were out of bacon when I went. I ended up getting the egg, ham, and cheese croissant with potatoes, and it was SO good.

The sweet and savory combination with the ham, egg, and cheese worked really well. The potatoes were good too, and between those and the croissant, the meal was surprisingly filling. I ate breakfast and stayed full for basically the rest of the day, which almost never happens for me. I would absolutely come back, especially if I can get my hands on the bacon next time!

I thought the pepperoni mayo would add some kick as well and maybe it would have if there had been more than a half-tablespoon of it. And the bread was not fresh! I could have cried over this.
