    I went to the Chattahoochee Food works to grab a Philly and ended up grabbing both. I decided to try this place because I'm always up for a good Cuban sandwich and I really love sweet plantains. Service is above average for ordering at a counter and waiting. The individuals behind the counter we nice. The location is a food hall, so think large industrial building fitted to have multiple small kitchens in it with lots of seating and places to grab a drink. Overall the Cuban sandwich was a little over average, but not amazing, at least not compared to a Philly. The Mojo sauce served with this sandwich really helps bring out the flavor, but without it, it's kind of bland on it's own. As for the Sweet plantain, they are about as common as can be. You really can't mess them up. Sweet and tasty as always. I like to put some salt on them. Overall, I would rate this about a 3.5 if you're grabbing a Cuban. They do have Mofongo which seems to be their specialty here. I will try that next time and report back when I get a chance.

    Loved loved loved the Rice and Bean bowl with churrasco, The steak had vegetables, which I don't eat, so the waiter gave me a dessert which also was DELICIOUS. They were very attentive and made sure we were pleased with the food. The vibe made me feel as if I was back home in Puerto Rico with nice and social people.

    A cool little stall for Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Latin dishes at Chattahoochee Food Works (a food hall).

    A previous update dealt with Papi's metering what they were making due to the pandemic. Things…read morehave now gotten back to normal. I figured I would add an update to go along with a more recent set of photos. I was able to go in, get seated, order, and get a nice platter of ropa vieja. The food here is very reliable. And, to date, I've only had 2 entrees - the ropa vieja and the vaca frita. The restaurant remains clean and comfortable. I've just seen a slight but perceivable decline in their enthusiasm for customer service and, as it is elsewhere, it seems to show up when locales aren't even really busy. That was the situation here. I'd like to move them back up to 5, but this more sullen reception keeps Papi's in Midtown at 4 stars. Because there are about a handful of locations in the Atlanta metro area, it's just easier to go to Papi's and not reinvent the wheel.

    Papi's is decent food, but nothing you'd really go crazy over. If you've been there more than once…read morethen you already know that. What I didn't expect is to see them raise the prices, while making the dishes much smaller. I've always ordered the Jerk Chicken sandwich with fries. Today I was so disappointed to that thin, flimsy sandwich they brought out and about 1/2 of the fries they used to give you. The portion was so small I asked the waitress was this correct, and to my surprise she said "yes, that is how it comes now." I used to leave stuffed after this meal, today I left still hungry. You can raise the prices, but raising them and cutting back on food at the same time is wild. No way you're saving money by giving customers about 10 small fries. They really cut back on chicken in the sandwich also. Most of mine was just bread. Papi's I think you might have lost me as a customer now.

I had been wanting to try their food so figured give it a try. I placed an order for Haitian patties, Oxtail, and a side salad. When I arrived, I reviewed the receipt and noticed the price of the oxtail increased from $38 to $42. The price on the website is not currently reflecting the prices being charged. I use the unkind app but it was not working so could not use it to pay. The hostess said it was an ongoing issue. Let's discuss the food. My coworker enjoyed her Haitian patties. She said the island slaw was really good. The side salad is the house salad. I asked for balsamic dressing when given the option. There was none on that salad. Sigh. The oxtail were good. They were very well seasoned and had a good flavor. The rice and beans were good but not enough. The rice could have been cooked a tad bit longer. It wasn't fine bur like 1 minute when have been perfect. I did not dine in but it looked nice inside. There was a decent amount of people there. It was clean and nicely decorated. I would eat here again but I didn't like the price difference in the oxtails or lack of salad dressing. I think dining there those issues could have been addressed but I was back at work.
