    First time at Lewis BBQ and food was delicious, portion was large enough to share between two of us. Ordered the brisket which was very good, weren't huge fans of the hatch green chile sausage. Mac n cheese was great and portion size was great! We weren't fans of any of the 4 sauces but that's alright. Cost about $40 for the tray so definitely a treat yourself type of spot!

    Super convenient free parking with beltline access. AC but not too cold. Delicious brisket and sides and really nice service. No trashcans so they have people that just clean and pick up so feel like my tip was paying for something tangible. Will definitely be back!

    Service was great by my smoked wings weren't. While in Georgia decided to try out this bbq spot. We ordered Mac n cheese, collard greens, potatoe salad, ribs, brisket and smoked wings. The sides were good but I disliked the flavor and seasoning on the wings.

    This is the best barbecue in Atlanta now. I had the chopped brisket, Mac and cheese, and greens. I touched up the greens and Mac with hot sauce, but it was good without it as well. The brisket was juicy, tender, slightly fatty in the best way, and seasoned to perfection. The place is spacious, and the ordering system made quick with of the mid sized line upon arrival. The staff was friendly and generous with their samples and recommendations. I don't have a single complaint. The next time I'm in town, I'm making a beeline to Lewis BBQ.

    Food was so good i forgot to take pictures of half of it. Highly recommend this place, and the bar half of the restaurant becauee it had a shorter line and the same food

    I have had the privilege to eat some amazing smoked meats over the last month. These folks are smoking some amazing meats here @ Lewis BBQ. Top tier they are crushing it. The Mac & cheese was great, definitely gotta have the French fries, they seasoned perfectly. Plenty of seating inside and out. Service was outstanding. Definitely running this back on my next Atlanta visit.

    Lewis BBQ never disappoints I've been to all three Lewis Barbecue locations now, and this one in Atlanta--and I'm happy to say the food here is just as good as the OG. All the meats were cooked and smoked beautifully--super tender and packed with flavor. The sides were just as tasty and really completed the meal. Definitely recommend giving it a try!

    The barbecue is delicious. The staff will walk you through the process. One tip: go for the fatty brisket not the lean. The wings are crispy and topped with a white sauce and lime. The collard greens and Mac and cheese make great sides. You will think the single is too small, it's not. You will be full, or at least I was. This is pricey BBQ so be prepared to pay more than a simple combo price. Everything is ala carte but not tapas priced. I may be back but it won't be often. I love a good deal.

    This place is expensive but well worth it. Also, You have to park in a strip mall and take a breeze way to the back to find this place. Place is big on the inside and really clean. I ordered Bisket mixed, greens, ribs, and green chile sausage. The pickled pickles and onions help clean the taste buds. The greens are decent. Brisket is really good. Ribs are very good as well. Green Chile sausage is loaded with juices and cheese. The food is amazing but I cannot eat like this too often.

    One of the best BBQ spots in ATL - I did a back to back brisket taste test with another highly rated spot (hint: it's korean fusion) and Lewis was far better in my opinion. More moist, better salted, and better flavor. My main critique with Lewis' brisket is that the texture is a little lacking. The brisket didn't necessarily hold together well when I started to cut it. It kinda just started to fall apart. The green chile corn pudding was alright - I wish it had more of a kick and a bit stronger flavor. For ATL, this is 5 star BBQ that is more along the lines of Texas style BBQ, but I think by Texas standards, this is mid/upper-mid range BBQ (still good by any means, but competition in Texas is tough). I took my order to-go and they packaged it very well! The meat was wrapped in parchment paper, and then wrapped again in saran wrap. All the sauces were labeled and we were given a plentiful amount of sauce. The OG sauce is good! Would recommend that one for sure. Despite my strong opinions, I would still return to Lewis to try more of their meats. It is, after all, probably the best BBQ in ATL and is the closest I can get to a taste of home. Glad that some real BBQ has finally landed here!

    This is our new BBQ spot! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, cooked to perfection, and absolutely delicious. The lean brisket is honestly the best I've ever had. We also tried the sausage, and it was just as good. I can't recommend this place enough. The mac and cheese was extra cheesy with a perfect baked layer on top. The green beans and collards weren't our favorite, both had a strong vinegar taste. But I'm not deducting any stars because the rest of the meal was that good! There's plenty of free parking in the large strip mall lot. Plenty of outside seating. We ordered online for a 3:30 pickup time, arrived at 3:25, and our order wasn't ready until 4:00 -- but it was worth the wait.

    What a treat! Love the buffet style food service line where you can see everything in front of you and choose what you want from there! All the meats I ordered were scrumptious! The hot guts sausage, the chopped brisket and the pork ribs. I will say the pork ribs were super fatty, so maybe an opportunity with trimming the meat a bit more. Also bummed we didn't get to try the turkey (was sold out), as I hear it's a fan fave! Pro Tip: order the green chile corn pudding! Actually order 2!!

    Lewis Barbecue and Bar Lewis are such perfect new additions to this area! The food and drinks are both so delicious! The brisket is definitely the highlight for me!! I loved the brisket sandwich. This location is in Ansley Mall with direct access to the Beltline! It's perfect for a weekend scroll with lunch or dinner! Its a walk up counter, so you can see what you are ordering! Definitely a must try!

You place your order at the register and when your food is ready they call your name out. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad sandwich, the bread pudding and my friend ordered the tuna melt . The food came out fresh and did not take a long time to be prepared. I enjoyed every bite of my sandwich. It was flavorful and the portion size was great. Essentially you can eat 1/2 of the sandwich and save the other half for a second meal. Now the bread pudding was a disappointment. It was dry and lacked flavor, I would not recommend. My friend enjoyed her tuna melt, the only feedback she had was that the press did not allow for the inside of the sandwich to be warm. She thought the entire sandwich would be warm. I will be back for the chicken Caesar salad sandwich for sure !!

Full bar and lots of daily drink special. Nice varieties of chips at $2 a bag but I think that's average for a small bag of chips at a restaurant They sit next to a pizza restaurant and I believe share an outside patio. I sat inside and couldn't tell what the patio section really looked like and since pollen season is among us, it'll be October before I can find out.

Neither of the sandwiches had cheese, that I specifically added and paid additional. Upon calling to inform that neither of my sandwiches had cheese, not knowing what was the condition of the sandwiches and salads I dropped off at the dog groomers, I was met with "you can come back if you want for another sandwich". Ummmm..... try listening to the consumer. Credit them back the extra they payed that they didn't get. I even tipped $20 cash for just over $100 tab. I'm not driving 45 minutes for a sandwich that could have just been solved with a simple credit back, but sadly, this management is not capable of doing such a simple task. Very poor service and will not patron this establishment going forward. Shameful service.

The service at Sean's is always polite and high-energy plus they're super knowledgeable about their menu selections. Another plus is there's always plenty of parking which isn't always the case around the park. Only slight downside is there's no indoor seating but on pretty days, it's very pleasant eating on their covered patio. So, in a nutshell, amazing food at reasonable prices, great service and cool ambiance (albeit outdoors). Highly recommend you check this place out!!!
