I saw good reviews for this lunch spot a block or two from my office so I decided to give it a try…read more A weekday at lunchtime, it was not crowded 2 or 3 others in. One guy working seemed to do it all - take order, cook it up & bring it out & was friendly enough. To that point, it is cooked up fresh as you order. I got the 1/4-lb single & it was a pretty good burger. Seemed to ring up a little more than I was expecting from menu but maybe I missed something. It comes with fries & they are large crinkle fries. My fries were almost overcooked but still edible. Also, ordered a fountain drink because it seemed a little less than the bottled drinks in cooler but he said fountain is broken. Ugh. Not wanting to pay nearly $4 for a bottle drink, I still paid $2 I think for a bottle of water. Anyway, as said, it was a decent lunch but not $15+ good for 1/4 lb burger, fries & water. I can't see making this a regular lunch stop.

We went with a friend and none of us had ever been. I was convinced before we arrived that I was NOT going to get what I wanted. I WAS WRONG. We each ordered a small one patty smashed burger, all with cheese, one with Smiley's sauce one it, one with the sauce on the side and one no sauce. We then ordered an order of fries and requested no spice. No problem. Then the homemade chips and no special sauce. Again, no problem. The homemade potato chips and fries came with Smiley's special sauce. Other condiments were on a table for your taking. Then the food arrived. The three of us just looked at this amazing plating of food. It was beautiful and we hoped it would taste half as good as it looked. We were in awe. All agreed it was the best burger we had eaten in a very long time. Would put it above other burgers in the Atlanta area and we have tried most of them. Service was some of the best. Prices are reasonable for what you get. Highly recommend.

Soon after we sat down, there was a live performer that played guitar and sang songs, she was so good! For the food, the ribs were delicious. The ribs fell right off the bone. 1/2 slab of ribs were more than enough for a meal. The rum baked beans and the collard greens were my personal favorite sides. This is a great neighborhood bbq place and I would def come back again!

This review is for delivery ordered via their website and fulfilled by DoorDash…read more In a word: underwhelming. Quarter Chicken: fine, I guess. Tender but lacking in flavor. If there was a rub, it was subtle to the point of being almost untasteable. Quarter rack of Ribs: poor. Meaty, but far too tough, definitely not fall off the bone. Again lacking in flavor, and burnt in spots. Side of Mac n Cheese: easily the start of the show. Very flavorful, baked and not swimming in cheese sauce, possible notes of ritz crackers detected. I'd have eaten a main course sized portion, and imagine it could mix well with pulled pork or chopped brisket, should Matt's ever consider expanding their repertoire of meats. Side of potato salad: also very solid. Simple but nicely flavored, just creamy enough. Side of collards: fine but unremarkable. Bbq sauce: decent-ish, more tangy than sweet. Very thick. Packaging : Matt's really could improve here. The ribs and chicken, piled together between two slices of white bread, was wrapped in white paper which was in turn stuffed into a paper bag with the containers of sides. This was messy- yes, bbq is by nature a messy undertaking, but a clamshell container would've made the whole fiasco a lot easier to deal with. A fork and spoon were included, no knife... and no napkins. Really? For a paper wrapped oversauced pile of meat... not even a single napkin? I honestly would've been fine paying an extra buck or so for some better packaging and, IDK, maybe a wetnap. Overall, this bbq lover was unimpressed. Perhaps the rave reviews made my expectations too high. I've honestly had better bbq at multiple places in my relative bbq desert hometown of Boston. I was hoping for a real treat during my business trip to Atlanta; instead, I'm yearning for the joint near my suburban New England home...

We arrived about two hours prior to them closing, which turned out to be perfect, as we beat the crowd and before they stopped taking orders. That was my only negative observation, many people were turned away nearly an hour before closing. I know I would have been upset if I drove all the way to Decatur and couldn't place an order. Hopefully, they will improve their processes so everyone can experience the greatness that they're cooking up! When we arrived, one of the owners greeted us with a lively personality. She handed us menus and told us to select a seat. The seating is spacious, and you can opt to sit at the bar, a table, or outdoors. It's open seating, so it's first come, first served. After selecting a seat, our server arrived shortly thereafter and let us know that the shrimp fries were out of stock before we ordered. We were hungry, so we already knew what we wanted to order. I chose the "THAT SH!T SLAMBING" with feta cheese, initially opting out of the fries, but I don't think the server heard me, and my husband ordered the "Who Wants Beef" with fries. Everything was cooked fresh to order, so there was a slight wait. I would recommend planning accordingly if you're really hungry, as the wait maybe longer than expected. We also shared a Jumex Nectar, as they only had one left. While waiting, I was told they were out of feta cheese, though I saw a dish with feta come out after ours; however, they may have ordered it before us. I was still a bit disappointed, as I believe the feta would have taken my lamb burger to another level. When our food arrived, it was hot and fresh. I was glad I ended up with fries, as I was hungrier than I thought. The burgers were amazing and seasoned to perfection. You can tell the chef is cooking with passion, as you can taste it in every bite. I also appreciate that they utilize farm-to-block sourcing, providing fresh, handcrafted, high-quality food. If you've been considering dining here, don't hesitate any longer, just go! Be sure to arrive early or call ahead for takeout. I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting again!

I get tired of the lemon pepper dry rub or the dry rub with butter/oil. They made an actual sauce. Love it. The burger was delicious. It was more cookout style- not like Wendys or McDonald's.

May 3rd, 2014 - Atlanta Burger Tour #3…read more We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day to explore the city. It was a Saturday, traffic was light, the skies were bright & the temperature was gorgeous. If that weren't enough, EVERYWHERE we went today we were greeted warmly. What's a Burger Tour you ask? It's when a group of really cool yelpers get together to share a burger at different establishments around town. Depending on the size, we will split burgers in two's and sometimes three's. By sharing the burgers, we have room to try different places all in the same day. This time we stayed inside the city limits for some classic neighborhood eats. ------------ - - - - - - A N N ' S S N A C K B A R Our Tour began @ Ann's Snack Bar. It's small, only accommodating about 8 people at a time inside. However, our group of 13 had plenty of space on the patio. Although we arrived 1/2 hour before opening, to our surprise Miss Ann and her staff came out to greet us, take our orders, and offer drinks while we waited for our Ghetto Burgers. My regular Burger Crew of Bill, Jose, Tanya, Lindy & Jamarcus were there as well as a few newbies like Panida, Willie, Annie, Bear, Tahnita, Jackie and Yulanda. Miss Ann was on point to day. Faster than normal service and WOW was she engaging. She sat with us for about a half hour towards the end of our meal & told us stories of her long 40 year career as a business owner. Great stories about the famous people that have entered her doors (her favorite being P-Diddy). Miss Ann is unfiltered, so it was a lively conversation. As for the burger, if you don't know, you betta ask somebody! It's the shizzle fo'rizzle my nizzle. A R G O S Y The lovely Helena joined us for this leg of the tour. I am an artist. Not by profession, but I've had the art gene racing through my blood since elementary school where I designed sets for plays and our graduation program. I dabble in interior and exterior design, so Argosy was extremely appealing to my visual sensory glands. Everything about Argosy was a feast for my eyes. I probably annoyed the group as I couldn't stop saying how much I loved the look, from the reclaimed wood on the walls, to the old fashion light bulbs & stools made out of tree stumps. The burger was also a feast for the eyes. Probably the most beautiful burger presentation I've ever seen, and its taste did not disappoint. Of all the burgers we sampled today, I could taste the quality of beef the best in the Plancha Burger here. L I T T L E ' S F O O D S T O R E & G R I L L Nestled in the heart of Cabbagetown is a neighborhood gem that has been in existence since 1929. Run by the Little Family for more than half a century, this charming little grocery store has changed ownership a few times over the years. Economic hardship caused the doors to briefly close in 2005 only to find itself in jeopardy again in 2013. But thanks to a rally cry from the local community, Little's was saved to fight another day.... and we are very grateful. The couple that now owns the store are warm & welcoming. The whole experience made me wish I was lucky enough to be a resident within walking distance, because I could see myself coming here EVERY day to eat & have conversation. I truly enjoyed my visit. We were starting to feel the weight of our task today, so we all chose to get the slider-sized regular burger they are know for. It was outstanding! C Y P R E S S S T R E E T P I N T & P L A T E Our final stop brought us to this vibrant little neighborhood joint where the air is filled with music playing on the garden patio. Kristin B popped in to take a break from her final exam studies. At this point we were stuffed, but just had to have one of the most unique burgers of the Tour. The Sublime Burger, which is sandwiched between two glazed donuts acting as the bun! SHUT UP!!! In a way it was the perfect ending to our day as this burger almost became dessert. Couple it with the sweet potatoes fries and you are in for a real treat. THE VERDICT Who won as the best burger of the Tour you ask? Well, let me just say every burger was a winner, each in it's own right is worthy of multiple visits. The clear winner for most of the group was the Ghetto Burger @ Ann's. It's a beast of a burger for only $10 (that also includes fries and a drink). But I am a fan of "the new" as Anton Ego put it in the movie Ratatouille. I'm very familiar with Ann's, but Argosy, Little's & Cypress Pint were all new experiences for me. Each will hold a special place as each had it's own personality in both décor and taste. I honestly don't have a favorite this time when it comes to the food. However, if I were going by feelings only, Little's is simply a special place that captured my heart. It's the kind of neighborhood joint that hearkens back to the days where at most you only walked a few blocks to do your shopping and where the shop owner might also be your neighbor... and friend.

God I love burgers. Prior to the Burger Tour, I would have said that I could eat one a day and be…read morehappy. After the Burger Tour, I didn't want to see another burger for a long time. We stopped at three different establishments on a lovely Sunday morning/afternoon to determine whose burger reigns supreme. Holeman and Finch Our first stop on the tour was at Holeman and Finch. We strategically planned this outing on a Sunday so that we would be able to grab one of these suckers. I am not one to sit in a bar for hours on end waiting until 10 pm to be able to grab a coveted burger. Fortunately, they offer their burger on the Sunday brunch menu. The restaurant opens promptly at 11:30 am. I arrived at 11 am and there was already about 15 or so people in line. Fortunately, some people in our group are early birds and were the second ones in line. The line had stretched around the side of the building by the time the doors officially opened. There was a mad dash for the entryway instead of an orderly filing inside the building. Good luck not getting run over. We were seated at one of the larger communal tables. Everyone talks about how great this burger is. One would expect to be let down when trying it out for the first time. I was not let down. This burger was a thing of beauty. Two beef patties smothered in American cheese with onions and pickles. I'm not a pickle on burgers fan so I picked mine off and Brent H. happily consumed them for me. I normally add mayo to my burgers, but this burger does not need anything added to it. Pure greasy perfection. Totally worth the wait on a Sunday morning. I'm still not willing to come during the week, though. One Eared Stag Brent H. mentioned that One Eared Stag now had a burger that we just had to try. I called the restaurant to find out if they happened to offer said burger for Sunday brunch. They told me that I would need to call the day of to find out. I was also warned that they ran out of burgers on the day I called so we should come earlier in the day to be on the safe side. We debated what our second destination would be while we were sitting and Holeman and Finch. We ended up coming here second so that we would be able to grab some before they ran out. They call their burger The Meat Stick here. Our server assured us that this burger would beat Holeman and Finch's burger hands down. That's a ballsy statement. Their burger is also a double patty with American cheese. They add pickles, onions, and what our server called pickled onions that tasted like banana peppers to me (and looked sort of like banana peppers). The burger is served with a steak knife. Perfect for our group as we were splitting all of the burgers. This burger is not as greasy as H&F's. It was really, really good. Just not H&F good. OES did have the best fries of the group. I almost got sidetracked while sitting here waiting on our burgers and watching all of the delicious brunch items pass us by. I love eating brunch here. I did get a Pimm's Cup to enjoy with my meal. It was the best Pimm's Cup I've had in town. Another reason to head back soon. Seven Lamps We headed over to Seven Lamps for our final burger of the tour. This place offers a 50/50 burger that's not on their menu. Just ask for it and they will happily prepare it for you. This burger was one big patty with some sort of melted cheese, bacon, onion, pickles, and a sauce reminiscent of the kind served on Big Macs. Sadly, this burger was a distant third when compared to the other two. The bun had an obscene amount of sesame seeds on it. I felt like I tasted the sesame seeds more than the actual burger. Very distracting. The fries here were also disappointing. A lackluster ending to our afternoon. I will say that I returned here recently and someone in our group ordered this burger and it looked a lot better than the one we were served on the day of the Burger Tour. The fries were also amazing. So much better than previously. Maybe they have a third string cook for Sunday brunches? It's a shame because I definitely would have liked the burger I saw served to my friend. Overall, it was an amazing afternoon. I'm looking forward to the next round!
