I came here on a Sunday. There wasn't a wait and we were seated as soon as we walked in. The restaurant was clean, the waiter was tentative and the ambiance was very laid back. I ordered a turkey burger and my friend ordered the carrot cake waffles and chicken. The turkey burger was ok. More of a thin patty and a little flavor. The fries were good. The chicken was really crispy and fresh and I liked the carrot cake waffles. Not overly sweet and you can taste the flavor. read more

Let me start with the ambiance. Very nice decor, small and intimate restaurant. We absolutely enjoyed the music playing while there. Gives you a southern vibe with savory meal options. The server mentioned they even have a DJ on one of the weekend days !! So we decided to try a little bit of everything it seemed. I was pleasantly surprised that the Shrimp & Grits incorporated chicken sausage. It was more than feeling as a meal, the grits were creamy and the shrimp couldn't have been better. Now the chicken wings stole the show for our table. Always nice when your food comes out piping hot & fresh but when it's seasoned perfectly, what more can you ask for !! The greens were ok, can't quite put my finger in it and the Mac & cheese needed a little bit more love. Now the breakfast potatoes and the biscuits were another star. Stuffed can't even describe how we felt when getting up from the table. Now I will say that waiting for our food to come out took longer than we expected, but appreciated that it came out hot and delicious for the most part. Yes, I plan to visit again when I'm Atlanta as I had my eye on the Peach cobbler French Toast. Yes, you read that right It's worth checking out. read more

I arrived a few minutes late for my reservation, but I did call ahead to see if that was okay. I was told we could be seated right away, when we got there we had to wait another 20 min. Once we got seated it took a while for the servers to get back to the table. We ordered the dip and it never came, our meals took a while to come out. I was disappointed that drinks weren't being served as that's a brunch staple. I was told they didn't have their license and will get it back the following week. I loved the art on the wall. Nonetheless, the food was good but service was subpar. I probably won't be back. read more

The food was decent and as described but be prepared to wait an ETERNITY. The place is a bit unorganized and inefficient. All of the staff seemed overwhelmed and confused. We ordered an appetizer and never received it. The entrees came out about 45ish minutes after we ordered.... That's unreasonable for a breakfast restaurant. I honestly wouldn't return. read more

It's Halloween time y'all and I been eyeballing this Black Women's own restaurant for a while now. So, today I'm stopping in. Came in the DJ was playing Micheal Jackson Thriller prefect for Halloween. The staff was amazing the guest was happy and the vibe was popping. I decided to sit at the bar considering it was just me and the dining room was packed. I started off with the bottomless Mimosa for $29 "YIKES". After looking over the menu and saw they have shrimp and grits you know I had to get that with a side of soft scrambled eggs. The meal came out beautifully and very tasteful. I was not disappointed. I loved everything about this Black owned restaurant. The staff made everyone feel like family. If your in the area I highly recommend. read more

Chicken had a great taste, and so did the carrot cake waffle. Food (and service) are EXTREMELY slow. Checks for large parties will NOT be split, which is a HUGE turn off. So I will NEVER encourage a large party to attend. read more

Scrum-did-dly-ump-tious - Chicken and Carrot Cake Waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lawrenceville, Georgia

I met a friend here for brunch on a Saturday. I have been wanting to try this place for some time now. We were seated almost immediately and the hostess was really nice. The dining area was packed a bit tight. The tables were close together, but it wasn't too bad. They are close though. I felt like the prices were a smidge pricey, but it's the Atlanta area. There is an automatic 20% gratuity if your party is over a certain limit or your total is over a certain limit. The food was absolutely amazing. My friend got chicken and waffles and it tasted so good. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and juicy. I got a carrot cake waffle and stuffed sausage biscuit. Everything was good. We also had the gourmet grilled cheese sandwich and some juice. Our total for two people was $96. There is street parking if you can find it and a pay lot down the street. read more

The food is sooo delicious!! My friend's son recommended this Brunch. We came to celebrate a friend's birthday. They cook all food fresh. I had the peach French toast and it was on point! The customer service was superb! We ate all of our food. It was fulfilling. The ere was enough space to sit our party of 5. Our server took great care of us. The staff came out to sing happy birthday to her and she had a choice of a cornbread or chocolate shot as a free gift. The was a beautiful experience. read more

I came in for breakfast on a Sunday. This was the first time I'd eaten here because I've come in solely for drinks. The food was amazing. We ordered the crab dip as an appetizer and opted for the "build your own biscuit " for entrees. There were two biscuits, so the portions were big. The food came out fairly quick and it was delicious. The server was okay. The restaurant played a great selection of R&B music. The high top chairs were comfortable. Overall, I'd absolutely visit again. read more

Sadly this brunch spot could easily be 5 stars. This was my third time in this establishment and has been met with a similar experience each time. Food is extremely good I ordered chicken and waffles and it was amazing per usual. My girl ordered catfish and grits which were also great. The downside was us having reservations and even after being sat we still ended up waiting for about 30 minutes just for someone to come to us and ask what we wanted to drink. There was a huge party directly beside us and even tables that were sat after us received their food as we were waiting for drinks. This is the only thing keeping me from ever dining in again. The ambiance was alright, if you can think of grass wall Atlanta brunch spots it gave the same vibe. If you're looking for a brunch place in Lawrenceville I would recommend ordering for pick up or going inside only when they aren't busy. read more

I went with a few girls on Saturday with high expectations honestly. We decided to start off with the crab dip and that was the best thing we ate. Super flavorful and the pita chips were well seasoned and that's where the seasoning stopped lol. Most of my table ordered the oxtail and grits and one of my friends ordered the chicken and waffles with a regular waffle. The oxtail and grits lacked salt and the gravy was more like a soup. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't order again. My friend said her waffle was good but the chicken also lacked salt as well. We also ordered drinks and it took extremely long to get drinks and I just had flavored mimosas. The place isn't that big and it wasn't packed at all so it didn't make sense why our drinks took forever. Overall I wouldn't make a trip up here again. Oh also automatic 20% gratuity read more

Loved that we were served immediately. Ambiance was nice, our server was kind and checked in enough. The shrimp and grits were seasoned so well and creamy grits were made with love. The fish and grits didn't meet my expectations but I enjoyed how crispy the fish was with every bite. What stood out to me were the wings. Fried to perfection, honey drizzled on top and side of hot sauce. What more could I ask for in flavorful fried wings. I will be going back again to try the stuffed biscuit and gravy and peach cobbler French toast. Sounds incredible. read more

If you didn't give this place six stars, it was probably you. The service is wonderful, warm, and friendly in this family restaurant. Shortly after you are seated, you see other people's orders being delivered and have to ask what that was because it LOOKS amazing. But the best part is that it IS amazing. You will know with your very first bite that this meal was made with love. Finally a place where the food tastes as good as the presentation. I am telling you right now that if Nonni and Papi fall in love with this place the food was made by another grandma or grandpa. This is a hidden gem in the heart in Lawrenceville. Don't believe me. Go find out for yourself. read more

Decided to go here with a friend on a Friday because we saw they had patio seating. We got there around 1pm and upon arrival we were told the patio was closed for that day. The restaurant is pretty but I will say the music seemed a bit too loud. I could barely hear my friend. It wasn't super busy (there were about 3 tables filled). Our server wasn't horrible nor exceptional good. She probably checked on us 2 times & we had to find someone to get her to give us the check. My friend had the grilled cheese and loved it. I had catfish and fries. The catfish was great, I feel like the fries were undercooked. I was excited to try the cold pressed juices they had but the server told me they didn't make any that day so I got a strawberry lemonade. It tasted very sweet , not much like lemonade. Overall the experience was decent. It probably wouldn't be my first pick for breakfast or brunch. read more

If I could give a -5 star I would! My husband and I love supporting local businesses and we try to go get brunch almost every Sunday at one of the local restaurants but by far this one has made us the most disappointed! My husband ordered the steak and eggs and a cup of coffee and I had the omelette, breakfast potatoes with a glass of orange juice, also a bottle of water! I'm just now seeing that there was pork sausage added to my omelette on the inside when I pacifically asked the waiter if I could get steak instead! She replied "yes but it'll be an up charge" I was totally okay with that! Now as a Muslim who's never eaten pork before I'm beyond pissed for someone to be so careless and not listen to what I asked for! Now about the price, on their menu the steak and eggs is $27.99 and coffee is $2.99. Water was $5.00, orange juice $4.99, breakfast potatoes was $4.99, my omelette was supposed to be $15.99 plus the $9.99 up charge for the steak! Our total comes up to $71.94 before taxes! Now I know they have a rule about an automatic gratuity 20% tip for a party of 6 or $80 and over! But without my knowledge tip was already added and prices were changed on the food we ordered! Even after the prices were changed before taxes it adds up to $77.94! So when I saw that totally when the waiter showed me on the notepad I glanced and was okay with it and left her a tip as well not knowing what was happening! For anyone that has eaten there or likes to go there you need to ALWAYS ALWAYS CHECK before you pay! I will NEVER go there again and nor will I ever suggest them to anyone else! I will share pictures as well of their menu and my receipt! Aside from all that, we had our toddler with us and we had to ask four times before someone brought us a high chair for him. He was in my husbands arms the entire time while we waited for our food! Wait was at least an hour! read more

Great food and staff. Just be aware that gratuity is automatically included on bill, even with just 3 people.

Food fried Chicken is good waffle too thick. Small amount of syrup for the waffle to be so thick. Mac and cheese was good shrimp was overpriced for size of the shrimp. One bite size Service- I ordered strawberry lemonade at 5.00 no refills. I asked for a refill waitress said it was an additional charge but wasn't offered refill or water or anything else to drink. I was choking and had to drink the ice off drink Lol. Eggs one for $7.00 was overpriced. read more

I recently visited for the first time, and overall, it was a great experience. The service stood out right away--the hostess made us feel so welcome, which set the tone for the entire meal. The restaurant is in a small storefront in downtown Lawrenceville, but the cozy atmosphere and lovely decor make it feel much bigger. I particularly enjoyed the family photo wall, and the personalized brick wall, which actually features small engraved plaques that look like brick pavers--it's clear that people have purchased them to leave a piece of themselves behind. The space is clean, inviting, and relaxed--perfect for a casual meal. Food presentation was on point, and you can tell everything is cooked to order. The dish I had was good, but it was a little off from what I expected, so I'm not ready to judge the entire menu just yet. I'll definitely be coming back to give it another try! The service and the overall atmosphere won me over for sure. Just a tip--check the hours before you go, as they close at 3:00 PM and aren't open every day. read more

Ask to see your bill. This happened twice and now I won't be back. The food was delicious and as expected but the server was sneaky both times. We ordered drinks/food and began talking and laughing. The server comes back later and says the items we ordered are not available. We looked at the menu again and placed a different order. The bill comes later and it's unusually high. I ask for a printed copy. . Just as I thought, the items that were not available were still on my check (on a second visit). He also presented the check with an option to tip 20% or higher even though the gratuity is included in the check. In this economy you would do that to people? Very sad. read more

Mixed feelings but I'm not disappointed, I would love to try this place again but order something completely different from what i had. I had the chicken and waffles ( looks like the whole place had that ) but i had the chicken and waffles carrots cake flavor and all i could say is either it was not carrot cake or just dry. The wings were huge that it was served with it i give it a 4/10 . For my appetizer, I had the crab dip which I couldn't tell if it was pita bread or cut up tortillas fried but it was burnt good thing the dip tasted good a 6/10 . I'm not going to go into detail about the rest of our table and how the food turnt out but please don't RUSH when it comes to frying chicken is all I'm going to say. . . On to the Next I'll definitely want to come out and have a chance to sit on the patio to see the outside restaurants vibe. SN : keep up the good customer service the birthday song is very Catchy . read more

So true story, I've had reservations at this restaurant for weeks and weeks. Something always came up and i had to cancel. But I made it today. I had heard soem mixed reviews but know it's a newish restaurant so figured I would go and see for myself. We arrived at our appointment time and were seated about 5 minutes later. We got our drinks right away but there was a little time before we got our food. But I'll tell you it was well worth the wait. Ill say, I'm not really this greedy. We had brunch and ordered more food for dinner so I wouldn't have to cook. Chicken and carrot cake waffles- chicken 4 stars waffle 3. The chicken fried perfectly and seasoned wel. I'm very particular about my waffles. I prefer them to be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. While the flavor was ok (reminded me of a spice cake more than carrot cake), it was just rather meh. Soft. I would get the chicken again, the waffles no Corn griddle pancakes (maybe not the exact name)- 5 stars hands down. these were a hit. Surprised i hadn't heard people talk about these before. The texture and flavor just perfect. I litetaly wanted to devour them but sadly they were not mine... i ordered the waffles . Chicken sausage- these were ok. Nothing spectacular. About a 3 Cheese grits- one of my least favorite items. They had a flavor that i just couldn't place. I'm glad i didn't order the shrimp and grits because i would have been disappointed . 2 stars . Catfish and fries- so this catfish. I need a moment. Just delicious! And i ate it like 8-10 hours from when i ordered it (reheated in air fryer). Fried perfectly, flaky inside. 5 stars Mac and cheese- another hit! So yummy and cheesy and delicious. 5 stars Cornbread - another miss for me. Tastes like spice cake. I'd give it a 2 star Sadly they were out of the greens which i wanted to try Decor- so super cute! The pops of orange bright and cherry. Bathroom super clean. Service was good. It's a small restaurant and I could tell my waitress was busy but other staff checked in on us which was great. AND they had a live DJ. A vibe for sure. The music started after noon. Heck yes I'll come back. And to be ordered.. catfish, pancakes and mac and cheese and the greens So I love a good brunch. I really wish mimosas were on the menu . Maybe one day? Fingers crossed read more

We attempted to walk in near closing time and we were denied. So, as the hostess recommended, I made a reservation a couple of weeks in advance. FYI, parking is street or lot, there's no particular parking area for the restaurant. I went for brunch on Sunday. Despite having a reservation, we still had to wait at least 20 minutes to be seated. Service was slow, but the music playlist kept us upbeat while waiting. Once seated, we were informed that the restaurant was out of eggs. It really baffles me when restaurants run out of the essentials. That changed what we anticipated on ordering. So, we got fish and grits and a turkey burger. My grits were not hot; I had to ask for fresh grits, then ask someone else because my server got a large party and forgot my request. Also, the turkey burger was messsyyy, do not recommend. Overall, not a great experience. Especially after the high anticipation to dine here and not having eggs for brunch! read more

Todays visit: Orlando's service is always on point! Not sure why my order came out wrong when the dining room is practically empty. The cinnamon pancakes were just ok.

This is a Bru ch experience. Be prepared for a food coma. The atmosphere is delightful, bright, with a mix of high and low tops. The servers are friendly and attentive. We did have to wait quite a while for our food, but when it came, it was piping hot, freshly cooked. The highlights - those chicken wings and plump, juicy and so well seasoned. The mac n cheese - chefs kiss! Do get the carrot cake waffles, I promise you're in for crisp on the outside and pillow tenderness on the inside. The omelett - yes! Didn't love the turkey burger though - a little overdone. But let me tell you, everything else was amazing and hit the spot. read more

Get the shrimp and grits! Delicious! Service was timely and attentive! Great spot to bring the ladies for brunch!

Returned! I had catfish with cheese grits and collards, husband had chicken, cornbread, and two perfectly poached eggs. Sat at the bar with Alexia and Ania again. The food and service are consistent. It's official, another winner for Lawrenceville! The hours are short and it get crowded fast. Make reservations! No alcohol until 11:30 on Sunday, so consider that if you like Mimosas and Bloody Marys. Enjoy! read more

Service not good, extremely slow even when no one is barely there. We ordered drinks, and not only did it take over 30 minutes to get them, but they didn't taste like anything. The server couldn't confirm whether they used margarita mix or made them the regular way. When we didn't want the drinks, they told us all sales are final, even though that wasn't posted anywhere. They do have it posted that if you spend $80 or more, gratuity is automatically calculated. At one point, I had no fresh napkins after we used the three we were given. The food takes forever. We asked for our check to pay for the dip (which was good), but honestly, y'all could probably save money by giving fewer chips. All those chips aren't needed for that little scoop of dip. Then they told us the food was magically ready. Another guy got his food and had no silverware. Another table got their food and also had no silverware. Just two servers moving at turtle speed. The manager, or whoever it was, came over and asked what we needed. The check.... so we could go get some lunch. Anyways I'm writing this from village burger next door where we already have our food. I forgot to add, the waffle maker "went out" I didn't order waffles but still read more

I had brunch here after church with my parents on a Sunday. I highly suggest making a reservation because there were a lot of people waiting who did not have a reservation and the restaurant is small. I ordered the peach cobbler french toast, my dad had an omelet, and my mom had the fried catfish with mac n' cheese. As soon as I looked at my french toast I knew it wasn't going to be good and it wasn't. It didn't really taste like anything. My mom liked her catfish but the mac n' cheese was bland. My dad enjoyed his omelet. The one thing I did like is the birthday song they sing for birthdays. They sing their own birthday song to the beat of the song Lip Gloss by Lil' Mama and give you a cornbread cake. read more

They also don't sell alcohol but that may change in the future, however the fruit drink we tried was very delicious. The chicken and carrot cake waffles was excellent!
