Great customer service, well seasoned and crisp fried chicken, reminded me of my mama's. Sodium minded? This might not be for you. Sides - greens and Mac were decent. I look forward to visiting again! read more

I'm not gonna post any ugly photos and I'm also not gonna dog this business out because I get it, "Times are tough!" So here's what I'll do, I'll make this both a post and a personal message to the owner... Dear Sir/Madame Business owners, CFO, CEO, Treasure/Acct., Associates... I remember almost four years ago when my wife and I stepped foot into your shop. It wasn't MUCH different than it is now. The young woman behind the hot bar greeted us, made us feel welcome, and I almost feel like she gave us the story of how they started the restaurant. It was a great experience and for us it was endearing as we had just lost my wife's father. We were new in town and wanted to find places that made us feel like home. Like her father made us feel, welcomed and comfortable. We travel a lot so we aren't avid patrons but when we wanted some Mo Better we went. It seemed that as these four years have rolled by, the story has dwindled into local banter with the regulars and basic hungry guests. I remember the cake box was full of desserts every flavor in stock. The plain pound cake was a heavy reminder for my wife and I of grand parents who baked similar goods. The hot bar was fully stocked, and the standard was clean and efficient. The health department gave you an 81...An "81"! The atmosphere seemed tired and clearly there was a shortage of help. I make up that by the condition of a 65% empty cake box, and the lack of enthusiasm of the ONE guy who was )ringing up orders, touching food, boxes, bags, reciepts, tongs, the drive through window, the lever on the drink machine, I could go on) that the pay isn't attractive and quite possibly there's not even a health plan due to this administration putting the bite on business owners. Attracting talented workers who are dedicated and committed is probably just as difficult because there's nothing attractive about working at Mo Better. Aside from all that Plus the two sides of missing potato salads in two different orders (one was from my order today) I hope, and it is my deepest wish that you take a step back, reevaluate, look at what's not working and get rid of it. Then think of what you can add to bring your business back up to a level where, maybe the business has increased and you have a rating above 90. There are possibilities available if you want to thrive, because at this rate, it doesn't even feel like really care. About my order...Here's the feedback: *The cabbage was mega salty. *The chicken was over fried or it was fried from frozen. Chicken shouldn't shred and become stringy and chewy when you bite it, that's a result of cheap cuts and or poor quality. *The potato salad (missing) *The cornbread was wet and crumbly I watched as the cashier/server/orderpacker, busily moved to get drinks for others. But I had to ask for mine. He took my to go order at 6:07, I left at 6:23. I clocked a recent visit to Piccadilly's yesterday around the same time. Nobody in front of me at Mo better 16 minutes. Six people in front of me at Piccadilly, 8 minutes. Distance wise It makes better sense. Wait time wise and accuracy of order even BETTER. I could write more but my point is. We don't have much left here in Stonecrest, I would hate to see this spot have to pack it up. Get together and come up with a new plan, flip the menu, add something that's exclusive to MO BETTER, something you can only get there. Change the operating hours, get involved in the community and connect to the people...Better days are coming, and sometimes a shift can set everything right and get you back into motion..."Good Luck!" read more

My chicken was burned. I had a larger that normal order, therefore it was cooked to order. I did say crispy, not extra crispy and certainly not burned. I drove over 40 miles because I had guests coming for dinner. I was ashamed and embarrassed once I opened the pan of chicke It was horrifying. I spent over $100.00 dollars and wasted my money. Whom ever put the chicken in the pan had to have known it was burned. I'm so frustrated, hungry and out of my money. Thanks Tabbie Reese read more

I ordered the fish and chicken dinner. It wasn't on the menu but they said they had a button for it. 2 pieces of whiting and one spicy chicken thigh. The fish was fresh and seasoned well.. the chicken tasted burned in old oil. The only flavor I tasted was burnt. The Mac and cheese tasted like it was from a box and the greens lacked flavor. The lemonade was good read more

2nd time coming... I decided to come a bit earlier than the last time. Came right after lunch but before dinner, and the food was hot, fresh, and no crowd! I actually got a chance to see how spacious the place actually is where you can sit down and eat. The rolls were surprisingly delicious and better than the cornbread. Candied yams, baked chicken with a little gravy on top, fried chicken, green beans, rice and gravy, sucatash...EVERYTHING was delicious! But just like last time, they are a little heavy on the salt. read more

Soul food like your gramma makes. I ordered a 2 chicken meal which was honestly enough for 2 people. The chicken was seasoned well and hot. Loved the Mac and cheese. The service was slow but personable. I just know they'll be a wait next time. Whether you sit in or carry out, you'll be served in a styrofoam container. There was a fee on my bill that wasn't initially disclosed. That's the only hiccup. Ask about that. read more

Oh my GAWD... I made sure to taste EVERYTHING I had before writing this review! I ordered lemon pepper wings, Mac & cheese and a veggie plate (cabbage, collards and dressing). Don't judge me...I was hungry! THE POINT...is the food was in flavor and readiness and culture preservation! read more

Mo Better Chicken - 10 Piece Lemon Pepper Wings Cabbage Collard Greens Dressing Roll - Chicken Shop Near Me - Lithonia, Georgia

This wasn't my first choice for dinner but was suggested to me by a guy asking for change. He said that he was trying to get enough for dinner at MoBetterChicken because he loves the food and they take care him. He guaranteed that I would like it. He was right! I had the fish dinner, it was great. I had the green beans and they were seasoned to perfection and I had the yams and they were just sweet enough. The cornbread was beautiful and tasty. Everything was piping hot. The plastic cutlery was too flimsy. The people are pleasant, professional, neat and well uniformed. The dining area was unappealing and uninviting, no color, no music, just shades of brown but really clean. read more

By far, I recommend Stonecrest more for its better chicken than the one located in Decatur. First, the customer service is a perv. Second, the quality of food is way better. Third, they give you your money's worth more than a child's plate at the Decatur location. read more

Food was great and stayed HOT all the way until I got home which was 35 minutes away!! Will definitely be back!!

First, I was greeted 5 minutes after walking inside. When I ordered my food the young man at the counter said that I would get a free drink with my dinner. When they called my number, I'm glad I looked at my order before walking out. It was the RIGHT ticket number with the wrong order. I then told them it was the wrong order and said I'll wait on the right order. The young man man then asked me where's the Cornbread? I told him it was in the bag with the food. He said that I was lying. No one apologized for the inconvenience and they never gave me my drink. Other customers were also disappointed with the service. read more

We continuously allow businesses to come in to our communities and provide poor service. The customer service is poor, the cashiers are slow and rude. They never put everything you order in the bag and to be honest the food is mediocre at best. The best thing on the menu is the boss wings. We always try to patronize new and especially black owned businesses in the community but I will not be returning. This is what my veggie plate looked like and I had to come back for the fries and cornbread. read more

The chicken and sides are great I love it! BUT DO NOT ORDER THE SHRIMP. It's that frozen fake flat crap they sell at the wing spots. It's horrible! It's not good and not worth the price. I ordered it on Uber eats and I wish I could have taken it back and got a refund. I expected the shrimp to be freshly battered and fried just like the chicken! My sides were good but I'm TOTALLY DISSATISFIED with the shrimp. read more

Me and my boyfriend pulled up at the drive thru. We wanted to try something new. We were looking at the menu & the cashier was screaming at us saying "PULL UP TO THE WINDOW" my boyfriend told her that we still haven't decided what we want. She yelled again "PLEASE PULL UP" we pulled up to the window & she ask us what we wanted....we explained to her that we didn't get a chance to look at the menu. She said the speaker was broken. So we had to drive back around just to see the menu. We finally decided what we wanted and drove to the window. She walked up & ask us what we wanted again. We said that we wanted a wing combo and shrimp/tender combo. But we didn't use the name of the food we use the numbers so she literally had to look up & see what a number 1&3 was. She then told us that They don't have anymore chicken, shrimp, or anything that needs to be fried. ‍‍then she said she can GIVE US THE OLD CHICKEN THEY HAD OUT FOR A WHILE ..... yeah we said no thank you. She literally got mad said "have a good one" & SLAMMED THE WINDOW... excuse me! Thats our first & last time! read more

Poor service! Food wasn't all that. I order online and still had to wait 45 mins after they said it was ready. Had to keep asking were was my food. I got tied of asking and just left. And got a refund. read more

I am so glad that Mo Better has opened a location closer to me. Their chicken is the best. The skin is crispy and well seasoned. The vegetables are well seasoned but not too heavy with butter or grease. I am looking forward to expanding my pallet since I will be able to go more frequently. read more
