    Fried Catfish Croissant Sandwich
    Cecilè C.

    Pro/Con Service - attentive, knowledgeable (A) Ambiance - brunch (A) Food - fried catfish sandwich (B) * very good fried catch fish only issue I have which is preference my croissant was soggy from the catfish being hot. Not sure if the fish had sat if the croissant would still stand the rest of time. Espresso Martini - (A) Overall I'd visit again but not order the croissant because of the bread pretty much giving way too early where I am using a fork to eat the rest of the sandwich. Recommend to go tho

    Sweet potato pancakes with cinnamon butter, chicken sausage and scrambled eggs. Corn bread and large grits on the side.

    We have driven by this establishment before but never paid attention. I found it on google and I'm glad we tried it. It is a family owned restaurant so it's always great to support local. The venue is beautiful. We were able to get a reservation online fairly easily. There is ample parking. The hostess and server both were so kind and warm. Cassandra our server was very caring! She made good recommendations made sure we had a pleasant experience! The food is delicious! The pictures don't do it justice. The sweet potato pancakes with the cinnamon sugar butter is perfect. The grits was the perfect consistency and richness. The chicken and waffles was well balanced. The corn bread was a little dry but it wasn't a big deal. There is something for everyone on the menu. We will definitely return!

    Great spot for brunch. Wait time on Sundays are long to get a table and for food to come out but the food is really good. And the music is on point. I ordered the Fried Catfish Croissant. Fantastic choice. That fish is seasoned and fried to perfection. I was able to taste my friend's grits that came with his fried catfish and those grits were absolutely dreamy. Definitely will come back on a less busy day to try something else on the menu.

    Came to Phyllis for brunch with a couple of friends and everything was so good. I ordered the steak skillet with potatoes--perfectly seasoned and super filling. One friend had the shrimp and grits, and the other got the catfish croissant. We all loved our meals and cleared our plates. The bottomless mimosas were definitely flowing, and the lavender lemon drop was a must-try--so smooth and flavorful. The vibes were great, food was on point, and it's honestly the perfect brunch spot. We'll definitely be back for more.

    Alright so boom - I rolled into Phyllis on a Saturday afternoon, needing a proper brunch to settle the soul. This place hits the mark, serving up Southern comfort food, brunch, and cocktails in a medium-to-large setting with plenty of seating--no need to fight for a spot. The entire experience was made smooth by the excellent service. The staff was genuinely friendly and on top of things from the jump. My server was attentive, quick with the essentials, and made the whole brunch feel easy and welcoming. Good hospitality is key, and they nail it here. For my order, I chose the Sweet Potato Pancake breakfast. The plate was generous, featuring two large pancakes, two eggs, and my protein selection, which was the chicken sausage. I also added a side of home style potatoes. Everything on the plate was delicious. The eggs were cooked properly, and the chicken sausage was flavorful. The home style potatoes were a great side--crisp exterior and soft interior--providing that essential savory balance. The sweet potato pancakes, served with that beautiful cinnamon butter, were undoubtedly a highlight; they were fluffy and perfectly seasoned, easily the star component of the dish. Phyllis is a must-visit for a weekend brunch. Between the friendly service and the satisfying, well-executed food, it's a reliable and enjoyable spot.

    Fried Catfish & Grits

    My favorite meal, by far, from a boy's trip to ATL. Service from Jennifer was awesome, I think the owner came out to greet us and was so friendly, and all of the food absolutely slapped. We went all around trying Southern comfort food spots and I'm still dreaming about this catfish n grits. We made a reservation and there was absolutely no wait also, everything came out pretty quick and crispy hot.

    Food was okay, great parking and good customer service. Quiet establishment near the hospital, perfect for a quick getaway. I ordered the sweet potato pancakes, but they didn't really taste like sweet potato. The lemonade was everything! I also had chicken sausage with cheese eggs. The food came out fast, and the place is very pretty inside. Definitely worth giving them a try

    Hubby and I arrived on a Saturday morning around 0930 for brunch. Our visit started off rough as they seemed to be out of everything we ordered. They were out of biscuits and turkey sausage, but the waitress quickly turned things around by offering a croissant instead of the biscuit. The sweet potato pancakes were phenomenal, as were the potatoes and everything else we ordered. You must try the various types of butter they offer for your pancakes. DELICIOUS! We will stop by again the next time we stop in the ATL.

    Definitely going to make my way back to this restaurant! It is a must try! They market and pride themselves in southern homestyle cooking and it definitely hits the spot. The restaurant is clean has attentive staff/service, & parking is very accessible. The lot is about medium sized and is neighboring with a Panera Bread. I would say it may get crowded on weekends. I can't imagine there being an extremely long wait as the service was pretty quick (but don't hold me to that, again, I can picture them getting crowded on weekends). The food was delicious! It tasted fresh and of great quality. I am eager to try other dishes that were on the menu like the catfish and grits, fried lobster and waffles, mac n cheese, and many more. Our waitress recommended a lot of items as they all seem to meet expectations. I like that they also have some healthier options for anyone who may not be super into fried food. The only reason why I'm not giving it 5 stars is simply because of how they prepare their Honey Butter Biscuits. I really prefer for my honey butter to be glazed on and into my biscuit vs. getting it on the side and dipping it in the saucer (this is just my preference) Other than that, I'm excited to go back for a nice brunch with family!

    Sometimes you have to try something new. I had been waiting to try this new brunch spot in Marietta. I saw there were decent reviews. My son and I love trying new food spots together. It was easy to find off Cherokee Street. There is plenty of free parking. It is a medium size establishment. We went at right time with no wait and few tables left. The wait staff was friendly. We got some good food suggestions. I went with the sweet potato platter. My son got the lobster and waffle. The sweet tea did not disappoint. I can't stress how much I love my sweet tea. This was real southern sweet tea. Loved it! Yes, I had 2 glasses. Lol! The decor was simple. It wasn't too much. It's a contemporary design style. I loved it. Less is more. Simple with enough personal touches to make you feel like your in good hands. The food came out in reasonable time. Everything was fresh and hot. No complaints. We both ate all out food. I had chicken sausage with my platter. It was tasty. My son said the waffle was good. The lobster was not overcooked. We had a pleasant experience. The food and drinks were mid-prices. A little high but worth it. I would come back and eat again. Food price and portion size were decent.

    Catfish and grits YUMMY!!
    Julie S.

    A tucked away jewel! I googled best brunch in Marietta and this option came up and I also made the right choice! I had the sweet potato pancakes, which were delicious! But the star was the catfish and grits! The grits are amazing! To top it off we had the jewel MJ as our server! Service was quick, and the coffee is great as well!

    I've not been as consistent in wringing reviews this year but I figured I start by getting back on track with this review! A bit late but I'm baaaaaack LOL!.... My honey wanted to go to brunch but instead of going to our typical Sunday spot I wanted to adventure out to try something new. I came across Phyllis on TikTok and saw a few reviews on yelp. There were some mix reviews regarding customer service particularly but I decided to try it out for myself. Boy am I glad I did!! Phyllis is a minority owned & operated business. Parking is free, convenient, and easily accessible. Customer service was stellar from the time we entered the establishment to the time we exited. I made a reservation for 12pm. I was a little concerned because seating appeared full. However , there was a table that was out of my view that we were placed next to the bar. Our waiter was Tyler and he is AWESOME! Tyler greeted us immediately and ensured we had everything we needed. Once Tyler found out it was our first visit he made sure to give us a thorough run down of the menu and even gave us recommendations. When I say EVERY recommendation Tyler gave was on point, it. Was ON POINT!!! Here is what we ordered: Appetizer: Crab cake - my my my, more crab than breading just how I like it - DELISH! Entree: Fried Catfish & Grits w/side of collards - ALL items were seasoned to perfection. I only asked for hot sauce because I like a little kick in my collards and catfish but I could have honestly devoured it without it - DELISH! My honey elected the Chicken & Waffle but he substituted the waffle for the sweet potatoes pancakes per Tyler's recommendation - TASTE SO GOOD MAKE YOU WANNA SLAP YO MOMMA LOL -DELISH!! Cocktail: French 75 Bloody Mary Coffee Old Fashion - Every single drink listed was top notch. But ya'll this right here was AMAZING!! The overall ambiance is very nice, relaxing and there are nice paintings mounted on the walls. There's a nice range of music playing in the background at the right volume, just enough to groove and carry a conversation with your party without having to elevate your voices. I think the prices are reasonable and well worth it. I highly recommend checking this establishment out if you're in the Marietta area. Another added note, there was a female musician that was setting up as we were checking out. She plays the harp. Very talented. Next time we will have to stay long enough to hear her sounds. One things for sure, we definitely plan to return and very soon! Shouts out to Tyler and the entire Phyllis staff for the SUPERB hospitality. See you soon!

    Came here for a birthday breakfast with my husband and had the best time! We were welcomed by Trent who wore many hats at this restaurant and wore them well. From greeting, to serving, managing it all everything was well taken care of. The restaurant has a diner sort of feel to it, but fresh! We enjoyed fresh squeezed juice that was customized to our tastes by adding mango. We then enjoyed the turkey gravy & biscuits as an appetizer. (Very filling!) My husband got the chicken and waffles and I got the sweet potato pancakes, Mac and cheese, collard greens and grits. Everything was great! The sweet potato pancakes and collard greens were my favorite.

    "Order $1,000 get $10 off your next online order"  yes you read this correctly!

    This is a must try spot in Marietta!…read more I have to say I loved every moment of my experience at Atlanta Hard Cider. From the space to the beverages to the service, there was not a single miss here. This is not your typical warehouse or industrial park brewery/distillery. A beautiful brick, stand alone building greets you with a nice outdoor seating around. Inside is a beautifully decorated space with tall ceilings and tons of natural light pouring in. There is a long bar to the left and a merchandise area to the right with seating in the middle. Along the back is an exposed brewhouse you can look down on. There are over a dozen different flavors of cider you can choose from ranging between dry and sweet. You will also find their spirits to enjoy neat or in one of the hand crafted cocktails. I enjoyed my flight of ciders but was blown away by the cocktails. Our server, Sarah, was TOP NOTCH. Super fun, friendly, and energetic. She was extremely knowledgeable to all the product as well as the history of the business. Her passion made for an enjoyable experience. I cannot recommend this place enough and will absolutely be returning on a regular basis.

We stuck to cider only amongst the group even though there are some other cocktails available. I packed some charcuterie items from home to bring with us to nibble on during our visit. The staff member on duty was super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about all the flavors. We even bought a 4 pack variety to go.

    "There's something magical about rooftops. You feel like you're in 'Mary Poppins."…read moreGeorge Clarke There really is something special about being on a rooftop on a perfect summer evening, and it's great to have it right in downtown Sugar Hill. I would like to say I planned the perfect date, but as some of the best things in life, this was just an impromptu visit to cap off an already great evening. Outside of being on the rooftop, the bar itself is upscale yet approachable, service was fast and friendly. Being a bit of a self engrandized home bartender I'm a bit critical when out of my home lab, but their Smoked Old Fashioned wasn't bad. ("Wasn't bad" really means very good.") While I don't love the prices and hate paying a cover charge, when you throw in live music, a great vibe, and a view, I can't really complain. The owner made an announcement that whoever tipped the band $10 would get a free drink, and since most drinks were over $15 I thought that was cool on many levels. Will definitely be back to The Rooftop!

We walked around and finally ran into a waitress who told us to sit anywhere we wished inside or outside. The only area festive was inside a closed igloo and no heaters were on outdoors which was just a tad too cool for me despite the super nice weather that day. It would have been so to sit outside but without the warmth of the heaters we headed inside. We placed our order and explained we were just there for a pre-dinner drink and wanted to check out the venue so we didn't leave our tab open but we were quickly served the fabulous taking drinks on their menu(s). The Old Fashioned was on the regular menu and the Russian was on their seasonal tabletop menu. Server was very nice and took photos for some ladies we met. The only reason I can't give them a 5 star is they claim they are big on hospitality but yet we were not acknowledged upon arrival. Many restaurants and even some retail stores have a way to ensure they say hello/welcome immediately when you enter and without a hostess - the mindset should be that the bar or wait staff have a way to immediately say hello or welcome so those who have never been feel welcomed as well as those who frequently come. It would be nice to have a more festive decor for the holidays but that didn't affect my review; just a statement to say that the entire Sugar Hill area was pumping and themed with the holiday spirit then we walked in the only area decorated was not even accessible nor was it offered as an option to enjoy.
