    Mac&cheese were amazing, yams were even better. However the fried chicken was too dry. I actually had a difficult time chewing it. The crispiness outside the chicken was fine, but it was the meat itself which was too rubbery. It mightve been just that one cut we tried or they fried it for too long or something. For the service, I think it depends on who you get, because Ive had a good and a bad one. Ambiance of the restaurant was pretty nice and I thought it would be a nice place to come for a southern food date night.

    The food did not disappoint, however the service was unsatisfactory. We got the fried catfish with fried okra and Mac and cheese-- added on wings and mashed potatoes on the side. First time having the fried okra here and it was good. I really liked the batter and the touch of ranch seasoning. Ambiance was okay. As far as service, it was not good whatsoever. Our server greeted us and gave us water then proceeded to not check on us for 15+ minutes. A big group came in during that time and he proceeded to take their order, to which I got up and asked the manager for help. She quickly handled that for us and got us another server. I really enjoy the food here but the service does not match up. With an automatic 18% gratuity added, I do expect a higher level of service.

    We went for a friends birthday party and had to reserve several tables to accommodate the large group. The service was excellent but the restaurant was extremely hot and never cooled off. The lobster bites and lamb chops were excellent but the Mac and cheese was mediocre at best. The collard greens were fine but the portions were extremely smaller than the price and I was still hungry 30 minutes later

    My sister and I visited Southern Fire Kitchen before we headed back to the airport. We did make a reservation before arrival and were seated immediately. This food was TOP TIER. Service was fast and quick and we had a great time. We got the wings and cornbread to share. She ordered the salmon while I ordered the catfish. Both were delicious and hot upon arrival and we got 4 different sides, green beans, yams, Mac n cheese, and collard greens (which were all FANTASTIC). We practically share the sides since we got different ones. 10/10 recommend this place. The vibe was also super cute with the R& B music. We visited back in February and are still talking about this food! I will definitely be back when visiting Atlanta again!

    I was in town for a work trip and staff decided we wanted soul food! We decided to give Southern Fire Kitchen a try. We attem to make reservations in advance, but there weren't any available. We did a walk in and didn't have any issues being seated. When we arrived there was a bouncer outside that led us in to the person who sat us down. The vibe was just what I needed. Nice decor, TVs to watch the games, and the music was old school and new rnb. The food was so good! I ordered the wings with two sides and added an additional side and cornbread to share with my coworker. The greens had a slight sweetness to it, which I didn't care for, but the hot sauce helped to tame it down. The cornbread was decent. I tried my coworkers catfish and it was cooked to perfection. Im ready to return to GA, just to I can make another stop to Southern Fire Kitchen!

    I dined here recently with some friends and really enjoyed it. It's located in a large shopping plaza on Buford Highway and plenty of free parking is available. The restaurant is small, so I highly suggest that you make reservations. Upon entering the restaurant, I noticed an armed security guard outside and it threw me off. I get it though, it is Atlanta after all. Our server introduced herself promptly and asked if we wanted bottled water. We all ordered one, but noticed that other people had glasses of ice water. She never gave an alternative option, so we just assumed that they only had bottled water. To start, I ordered a watermelon margarita. It was good. To eat, I ordered the fried whiting with candied yams, collard greens and macaroni and cheese. The fish was fried to perfection and the yams were delicious! I really enjoyed the collard greens as when. The mac & cheese was just ok to me. The played a great selection of music and the service was fine. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. I'd definitely return.

    This place was busy but the staff were good. The restaurant is more of a local spot with a cozy decor. The food came out faster than our drinks. I had the fried catfish a little salty, Mac and cheese- good and seasoned, greens -mild favor and It had a crunch to them. Cornbread was good but dry. Overall it was a good experience and the food was good.

    The food was amazing! The service was just okay, did a walk in, I was asked if I had reservations, waited about 45 minutes to be seated only to walk in and see several tables available, once seated the waiter informed us that there is no free refills, never heard of that before, thank goodness the food made up for the mishaps, everything was seasoned good.

    I've been here twice now and I do overall enjoy this restaurant but the reviews are correct. The restaurant itself is really nice I came in twice with no reservation and was seated relatively quick. Upon seating our server did take a little to come over (both times) and when they come over they take your order typically at that time (great for me as I was hungry). Only downside is once you get your drinks you probably won't see your server stopping by again until it's time for the food. We were seated next to the kitchen area I believe and there was an awful smell coming from somewhere. I started to get nauseous from it until we moved from sitting there. I'm not sure if it's something in the wall or what but it smelled awful. The food here is always superior I've never had anything I didn't like. The only downside none of the drinks get free refills. The food doesn't typically take long but oftentimes you don't get all that you ask for once it is brought and you have to remind them. We ordered cornbread but didn't get it until after we had our food. I assume it was forgotten. The menu states the included gratuity so be aware when paying. It does show you on the pad though but don't overtip by not paying attention. Our server was attentive when it came time to pay otherwise we had to stop her constantly just for simple things. The two servers that I had both times never came over just to check in. Overall, If you can get past the low grade service this is the place you should go.

    This place surprised me. I've always been a little skeptical to try but I'm glad I did. The food was great and the portions were good as well. The service was also exceptional. Definitely will be trying again!!!

    I really wanted to like this place, but I just couldn't get over the pricey Over cooked dried out salmon and twice fried catfish. We arrived pretty late on a Saturday night and I am assuming they were getting ready to close so they were doing their final orders and it looked like we received the last of what was there. The place look lovely, but the food was completely off.

    We came for Mother's day weekend to Lafayette location. Got in, already expected to be packed and to wait. After about 1hr+ of wait we came inside and we were told that the manager had called a table but it wasn't ready. After another 10-15 Mins we were sat. As we had time to look at the menu while waiting, we were ready to order everything when the server came to us... another 10+ mins. It was a curse and a blessing because, my cocktail got to the table way before the 3 waters and lemonade we had ordered. It was probably about 40 mins in when the soft drinks arrived to the table. Food was good and the few times we saw the server was nice but it took over an hour to get the food and it did not come complete to the table... so, yes, more wait. It is absurd that 18% gratuity is automatically added. Would I come back? Maybe, on a weekday. I liked the vibes and decorations.

    Had to take this before it got real lol

    Is there a way to verify my reservation? I thought I made a reservation then went back to change the date but the app is telling me no reservation found.

    Once you place a reservation the app will send you a link to confirm. If you don't confirm, it's canceled.

    Is it accommodating for family, ie toddlers, elders?

    Yes, we were seated between two families, including children who seemed to be enjoying themselves!

    Do you serve hookah?

    No we don’t!!!

While I know many come for the food, I personally make the 25-minute drive for one thing: the Sweet Potato Cheesecake. Or at least, I used to.

The food took about 10 minutes. The turkey wings were falling off the bone which I love. The seasoning was done well. Yams were soft and not too sweet. I love that they packed them in a separate container to avoid the juices moving around in the styrofoam container. The macaroni needed some work as I got the burnt cut. It was definitely left in the oven too long in a non greased pan. It wasn't bad but there was definitely a burnt aftertaste. The cornbread and drink was also included. The price point was very reasonable for that meal. Banana pudding was $7.00 and I feel it wasn't worth the price. The price point gave homemade dessert when in actuality it was a container of pudding with 4 wafers and 4 slices of bananas. Lastly completely check your order before leaving as I had to return for my dessert as it wasn't in my bag. Overall I would return and try some new items. I would recommend.

After a few visits, I've tried a good variety of the menu: * **Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich:** This is served open-face and uses a mix of Sichuan and Calabrian chili. It is absolutely amazing, but fair warning: it is *hot*. Even if you're used to Sichuan spice, this one may still be tough to deal with, but it's still incredibly flavorful and enjoyable. Just keep in mind that they don't adjust the heat level for this one. * **The Greens:** These are wonderful. They have a rich, savory pork flavor and are easily a must-order for me every single time. * **Shrimp and Grits:** This has a fantastic sauce that strikes the perfect balance--not too heavy, but not watery either. My only minor wish is that they'd add some andouille sausage to it (even if raised the price), but it's still a really well-executed dish. * **Southern Pho:** Really great and super hearty. It's a comforting bowl, though probably best enjoyed during the winter months. * **Drinks:** The cocktails are always creative and well-made, and they keep a really interesting beer list on hand too. ### 2. The Ambience The vibe here is great. The interior feels like a charming, cozy little house you'd find in Savannah. I especially love the bar area, which has these really cool copper chandelier lights that give the space a warm, inviting glow. ### 3. The Service The staff has been consistently friendly and welcoming every single time I've been here. The Summary I honestly feel lucky to live close to this place. It doesn't get much love or mentions from the Atlanta social media crowd and local press (the good news is you won't encounter a lot of annoying people lol).. I'm a fan though.

Our experience at Virgil's Gullah Kitchen was completely unacceptable from beginning to end. Our waiter disappeared for over 15 minutes after taking our credit card to the register. When he finally returned, he claimed that he had somehow lost our credit card between our table and the register. Let that sink in -- our credit card was in the restaurant's possession, and somehow it disappeared while being handled by our server. To make matters even worse, our check was incorrect, adding another layer of frustration to an already completely unacceptable situation. And then, instead of taking responsibility and resolving the situation appropriately, the waiter had the audacity to give us his personal phone number and tell us to call him to see if he found our credit card. Absolutely not. That is not an appropriate way to handle a customer's financial information or a potentially lost credit card. At that point, the issue was no longer simply poor service, it became a matter of trust, accountability, and basic professionalism. I expect a restaurant to provide good food and service, but above all, I expect my personal property and financial information to be handled responsibly. This experience left me extremely uncomfortable and disappointed. Virgil's Gullah Kitchen needs to seriously address how situations like this are handled and, more importantly, how customer credit cards are being handled by staff! One star is honestly generous. I would not recommend this establishment based on this experience.

    Roasters may not always be in the conversation for the best chicken joints in Atlanta, but it…read moreshould be. Granted, that conversation is usually premised on fried chicken vs. rotisserie, but they can definitely hold their own for tender, juicy chicken. You can choose 1/2 or 1/4 chicken options with dark or white meat, but I my go-to is the pulled white meat plate for an easy-to-eat meal. Their house barbecue sauce is great, with just a little sweetness. They have a wide variety of comfort food sides like broccoli-cauliflower casserole and sweet potato soufflé so a hearty veggie plate is always an option there. And if you like your cornbread on the sweeter side theirs is a good as you'll find anywhere. Space-wise they have a large indoor dining area as well as a patio for nicer days. They have a few TVs on the wall so it's a good spot if sports are on. Service is consistently friendly and food comes out quickly. Parking for the center they are in is often crowded, but additional spots are available up the hill. Give them a try the next time you're craving some chicken and I'll bet you'll be back again soon.

    I've heard nothing but good things about Roasters which is why I'm a bit disappointed with my lunch…read moreexperience. I'll get the good things out of the way first: the staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean and they filled my mobile order quickly. But the food I received made me not want to return. I ordered the soup and salad combo. Chicken and rice soup and a house salad with blue cheese dressing. The soup was ok. It did not taste fresh but more like the end of the pot. The broth was oily, the potatoes (unexpected in chicken soup) were all broken up and mushy, the chicken was dry and the ends were rubbery/crispy. I took a couple of bites and just couldn't finish it. It just tasted...old. The salad, the item I was REALLY looking forward to, had wilted lettuce and dirt was still present on most of it. I thought maybe it was just one or two pieces but nope, it was wilted all the way through. And the blue cheese dressing provided, in a pod similar to coffee creamer, had separated and was white cream on the bottom and a layer of oil on the top. Shaking it up didn't even make it better. I thought a bun or roll would have been provided with the meal as the pick-up window attendant asked me if I wanted butter. I guess it was just wishful thinking on my part but it would have been nice. Although my lunch was reasonable priced for the Buckhead area at around $13...I couldn't eat it. I may return in the future and try something they specialize in like rotisserie or chicken tenders but if you can't provide a basic soup/salad combo you should probably just remove it from the menu.
