Tierra is amazingly beautiful, and pays attention to detail! Muchos gracias. She's always right on time and her energy is magnetic, we need more people like her to make the atmosphere warm and welcoming! read more

The food and the atmosphere was amazing . The good and drinks were amazing per usual, but our waitress at the bar (Tierra) was over the top amazing such a great personality. read more

The food is very good! We had the Chicken Biscuit & Mississippi Catfish entrees and all of it was flavorful and seasoned to perfection! The restaurant is very cute vibrant and we had the pleasure of being taken care of by Tierra she was very sweet and helpful when giving us suggestions. Thank you Tierra we highly recommend read more

I go to their cafe all of the time. Nice, quaint and classy atmosphere. Their coffee drinks are nice. They always provide excellent service which is what legitimate customers look for. Can't wait to go back! read more

The food was absolutely delicious and definitely the highlight of my visit! Everything was well-seasoned, fresh, and worth ordering. That said, the overall atmosphere felt more like a lounge than a brunch spot or family-friendly restaurant. The menu is completely digital, which may not be ideal for older guests or those who aren't comfortable using their phones. It seems like the restaurant is geared more toward a younger to middle-aged crowd. I also visited with my father, who has a disability, and found the indoor space to be a bit cramped, making it less accessible than I would have liked. Overall, if you're looking for great food and a trendy vibe, I'd recommend giving it a try. Just keep in mind that it may not be the best fit for families, older adults, or anyone needing more accessible seating. read more

Toast On Lenox did not disappoint! The atmosphere was vibrant, the music set the perfect brunch vibe and the service was warm and attentive from start to finish. I ordered the Short Rib Skillet with a side of mac & cheese, and both were absolutely delicious. The short rib was tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly in a skillet. The mac & cheese was rich, creamy, and definitely worth adding. Be prepared to enjoy left overs later. Yes, there plates are enough for 2nds and to simply share. I also love trying unique lemon drops everywhere I go, so I was excited to order the Lychee Lemon Drop. Unfortunately, they were out of lychee fruit today, so I decided to pass. It was a little disappointing, but it definitely won't stop me from coming back to try it another time. Overall, the food, energy, and experience made for a great brunch. If you're looking for flavorful food, a lively atmosphere, and a place that's perfect for brunch with friends or family, Toast On Lenox is definitely worth a visit. I'll absolutely be back for French toast next time! read more

I have heard about this place and have seen the lines out the door waiting to be seated. I knew this place was a hot spot and I have always wanted to try it. We came on a Sunday when they were booked and busy. If you are willing to wait an hour or two to be seated then you should try it out, otherwise make a reservation in advance. Once we were seated we were told that we can scan the QR plated code that was on the table for the menu. They have a lot to choose from to order so you won't be disappointed. Our server's name was Jay and he was very polite and friendly. He even gave us a little history about the restaurant (hours they are open/closed, how long the restaurant has been in business etc). We really appreciated the conversation. I ordered their seafood gumbo for an appetizer and the Mississippi Catfish for my entree. My husband opted for the Country Fried Chicken Biscuit. The seafood gumbo was plentiful and my husband and I shared. The roux was amazing, and the gumbo portion was just right. I loved the sausage, crawfish, crab, rice and shrimp. My catfish fillets were fried perfectly and tasted very delicious although they were a little small. The mac n cheese was divine and the collard greens were succulent. I cleaned my plate and left no crumbs. My husband enjoyed his dish and cleaned his plate as well. I would love to come back when it's less busy but then you will need to fight traffic to get here (unless you are a little closer to the location). If you don't mind a place that's booked and busy on the weekends and you really want to try a lovely brunch spot, check them out. The food was delicious and our service was great. I can't wait to try them again. read more

Toast on Lenox never fails me. Every single time I go, the food is consistently delicious, and I honestly don't think I've ever had anything bad from there. No matter what I order, it's always good, which is why I recommend this place to people all the time. The vibe is great, the food is flavorful, and they've definitely become one of my go-to spots in Atlanta. read more

I cannot rave enough about Toast on Lenox. I was visiting the area and looking for a good breakfast spot when this place came up with great reviews, and now I completely understand why. I didn't really plan ahead and was hoping to get seated quickly, but when we arrived around 10:30 to 10:45 there was already about a 20 minute wait. Honestly, I figured it had to be worth it, and with a lot of other places not even opening until 11, it made more sense to stay. One thing I really appreciated was that they take your phone number so you can wait in your car since there isn't a ton of room inside. They quoted us about 20 minutes and texted us after around 22, so the wait time was super accurate. Our server was incredibly sweet even though the restaurant was busy, which definitely stood out. The inside is quaint and cozy. It's not huge, but it absolutely has the kind of atmosphere you want for brunch. I will also say the bar seating is kind of like Russian roulette because seats kept randomly opening while we were there, so if you're lucky you might get in quicker that way. Now to the food because THAT is the reason to come here. I got the fried snapper and it did not disappoint at all. The greens were amazing, the rice that came with it was flavorful, and everything tasted fresh and well seasoned. I also got a gin drink that was so good. We tried the banana foster French toast too, and that was absolutely worth it. My friend ordered something closer to a traditional American breakfast and immediately said he wished he had gotten something more unique like my dish. Definitely order the items that stand out on the menu because that's where this place shines. 10/10 experience for me. I would absolutely come back every single time I'm in the area. read more

Talk about amazing breakfast! I came just for the salmon cakes and I'm glad I made the trip. The salmon cakes were perfectly cooked and seasoned. They were topped with picked onions and arugula with a light sauce. Sitting on a bed of pimento grits. I had a side of scrambled eggs and a honey biscuit as well. Let's just say I over ate because it was just that good. Yet still didn't finish. Got there first thing on a Thursday morning and quickly the restaurant started to fill up. I sat at the bar and the staff were very attentive and pleasant. read more

Let me tell you, Toast was so good I forgot to take pictures until halfway through! I love some good soul food and this was a 5/5. I ordered the catfish, collard greens, and candied yams and it was all delicious. I wish the yams were cooked a little longer but still so good regardless. Service was also excellent. We were seated immediately and everyone was very friendly. The restaurant was also very clean. I would definitely like to return and try something else! read more

This place serves delicious food. The venue is at the corner of a strip mall. Parking is extremely limited during brunch on the weekends but plenty of parking throughout the week. I would get here early if I were you. I have tried the French Toast, Short Rib skillet, and Catfish & Grits. Everything has tasted great. This time, I ordered the salmon cakes with scrambled eggs and grits. The food is amazing. The salmon cakes must be made in house because it was packed with salmon and flavor. The eggs were good. The biscuit was covered in honey and decent. The grits were extremely good also. read more

Super packed place!! Come early and be prepared to wait for a table unless you're okay with being outside. The food is good . Their French toast is great. We came for a girls brunch. I would say the place is a bit sketchy at first but maybe because it was so packed. read more

The food was great, but Kimana made the experience even better. She was friendly, personable, attentive, and had such a positive attitude. My son, daughter, and I were visiting Atlanta, and she made us feel so welcome. It's not often you come across service like that anymore. Kemana truly went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Toast is lucky to have her. We'll definitely be back! read more

Toast on Lenox is worth the rave. Every time I visit Atlanta, I hear people talk about this place, so on Saturday at 10:30 a.m. I decided to pull up to Toast on Lenox in Buckhead to finally see what the hype was about. It was already packed, and there was a wait even though brunch had barely started. I grabbed the only open seat at the bar and tried to order a drink, but they do not serve alcohol until 11:00 a.m. That alone tells you the food must be good because the place was full before anyone could even order a cocktail. This location had the Biscoff French toast, and I am a huge Biscoff lover, so I had to try it since it was their featured French toast. It did not disappoint at all. It was delicious. After 11:00am. I ordered a cold brew cocktail with Kahlúa Baileys and Jameson. It was also really good. The entire space is aesthetically pleasing and perfect for taking photos. I cannot wait to go back the next time I am in Atlanta to try more of their dishes because the food was excellent. The bartender Ashley also provided great service. read more

Very pleased with my experience here. I had the salmon cakes and grits and it was very tasty. The grits were perfect and the salmon cakes were delicious and came with a tasty aioli. I ate the whole thing. I had a peach lemonade. It was very strong, they out too much flavoring making it a bit tart but it was still good just neeeded to be watered down a bit. The service was good and honestly quick to say this place was competent packed. We were sat on the outdoor patio and I actually enjoyed this because it was such a nice day. I would definitely go back. read more

Visited at 10A on a Saturday morning without a reservation. We certainly lucked out because we were sat immediately but the folks that arrived after us had 20+ minute wait. I had the fried catfish and grits and it was so good! The seasoning on the catfish was perfect. This is a busy restaurant! All tables full with people talking and having a good time. Great music playlist as well. read more

Yesterday I ordered the fried snapper to go after we dined in and that was a MISS! As a Caribbean, I'm well-versed with eating fish with bones, but this fish had so many scales still on it's body and you couldn't tell until you put it in your mouth because it was battered and fried. It was literally a waste of the meal. Not the best experience at all! I still gave it 3 stars because our server, Jay, was phenomenal! Best customer service ever! read more

Great breakfast food and fast friendly service. Well laid out and I enjoyed my first time! I'll definitely be back, despite hearing some might be petty and boycott this place all because an owner decided to sit down with Rick Jackson. I am appalled at the way some people think. Is it so wrong to have a discussion with someone who might not have the same exact political views? Who is the party of tolerance here? Grow up, it's a black owned business and you want to snuff out an entrepreneur? read more

This place always has a long wait, day or night. I finally experienced what the hype was all about. I decided to get takeout instead of waiting. The staff was friendly, and the pickup process was simple. The restaurant is small, which contributes to the wait, but the decor is adorable and very Instagram-worthy. Now, let's get to the food, the main reason you're here. Starting with the positives: the portion size lasted me two days, and the beef was very tender. However, the skillet was a bit bland, nothing really stood out, and I was expecting more for the price. The honey butter biscuits made up for the skillet, and when combined, it created a mix of sweet and savory flavors. I'll go back and try the chicken and waffles to see if I prefer that. read more

This is my second time stopping by Toast on Lennox and let me help encourage you to add this restaurant to your list of Atlanta brunches to try. For one, reservations are HIGHLY recommended unless you're a party of 2 or 1. I would definitely recommend sitting at the bar because the service was FANTASTIC!! Plus, you don't have to wait for your drink, you got it almost immediately. Shout out to our bartender Kay ! She was amazing !!!! The ambiance was a vibe, per usual ! Beautifully decorated, great music and packed with guests. Now let's get into the food ! For starters, I ordered the seafood dip and it came with 2 pieces of delicious garlic baguettes. 1000/10 !!! Then I tried their cup of seafood gumbo. Now this dishes shocked me. It was JAMMED PACKED with flavor and even had a kick to it ! 1000/10 !!!! My beverage of choice was a dusse and strawberry margarita which was amazing !!! My main dish was their Mississippi catfish with Mac n cheese and collard greens. The catfish was fresh and full of flavor, the mac n cheese were sooo cheesy and tasted like they came from your aunties kitchen!!! Now the greens on the other hand, I wasn't a fan of. They tasted like vinegar with sugar. My sister ordered the Cookie and Cream French toast and I couldn't stop eating off her plate ! The presentation and flavor gave everything it needed to give !!! read more

Great atmosphere. The coffee was delicious. It is not a quick get in and get out place but worth the wait.

Went to Toast on Lenox (OG location) for Sunday brunch after grabbing a last minute reservation. Hosts were super accommodating and polite. Our server Jay was energetic and friendly! Food was a 10/10 down to the plating. We enjoyed our experience so much. Definitely a fav on my list now! read more

The food is overpriced.However, service.Horrible atmosphere who don't support good fashion, southern values.

We arrived around 9:45am and were seated by 10:15, which wasn't bad for the busy brunch crowd. I ordered the fried catfish and grits with grilled shrimp, and it was absolutely delicious--especially with the hot honey sauce! The food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor, and it didn't take long once we were seated. Our server was excellent--attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. I also tried my friend's Bananas Foster French Toast, which was amazing--not overpoweringly sweet, just right. Next time, I already know I want to try the Biscoff French Toast! Overall, a great brunch experience. I'll definitely be back. read more

I had been seeing this place in passing as well as online and had been meaning to visit. Today, before my wedding dress try-on appointment, my mom and I stopped in for breakfast. AMBIANCE The ambiance was trendy and fun. There was a definite vibe and style! SERVICE Tujarie was our server and he had really nice energy. He was kind and welcoming, as were all of the many staff. Despite the restaurant being busy, we were served in a timely manner! FOOD The food was exceptional! My mom and I shared an order of shrimp and grits as well as the ricotta pancakes. The shrimp and grits were flavorful and rich, and a huge portion! It was neck and neck, but our star favorite would probably be the pancakes. They were fluffy on the outside with a nice crispy edge, and were served with pure maple syrup which we were thrilled with! The honeycomb butter and fresh fruit really set it off to make it a perfect dish! We will be back! read more

Tierra was absolutely AMAZING! The bar was incredibly busy, but you would have never known it by the way she handled everything. She stayed calm, organized, and had such a positive attitude the entire time. She made every person feel seen, welcomed, and valued, even while juggling multiple orders. What stood out the most was her kindness. She was so patient, friendly, and genuinely helpful to everyone around her. It's rare to come across someone who can provide such exceptional customer service under pressure, but Tierra made it look effortless. She was attentive, efficient, and always had a smile on her face. Employees like Tierra are the reason people come back. She truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great experience, and it did not go unnoticed. If I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would. She deserves all the recognition for the incredible job she does! read more

Had a 2 PM Sunday reservation and waited about 15 minutes after our full party arrived. The space is clean and stylish but the air circulation isn't the best. Service was good. Our server was attentive and kept things moving without rushing us. The food was the highlight! Everything we had was fresh, flavorful, and better than expected. The Cajun seafood dip and honey butter biscuits were my favorites. My friend had the salmon cakes and liked that they weren't heavy on the breading. Overall, this spot lives up to the buzz. It's a solid spot for brunch. read more

Cute ambiance and good customer service. I wanted to check Toast out due to good reviews, online and from a friend I know. The portion sizes were really good for the price. I had the Braised Beef Short Rib Skillet. It was good and the beef was sooo tender. The garlic aioli was a nice touch. The dish itself could have used a little seasoning but overall a good choice. The Turkey Collard Greens were good but had a hint of sweetness I'm not used to with greens. Friend number 1 had the Biscoff French Toast Eggs and Turkey Bacon with a Lemon Drop Martini. She was enjoyed everything she had. I tasted a piece of her French toast which was super good. I would have ordered that too but I didn't want to be stuffed (lol). Friend number 2 had the Ricotta Pancakes, Roasted Potatoes and Chicken Sausage. She also enjoyed everything she had. I'd give it an 8/10 and would definitely go back to try more items on the menu. read more

What a nice spot. The atmosphere was lively and modern. All the guest I saw were have a blast. The restaurant was packed but we found a table on the patio with no wait. Our server did a good job of being helpful and just the right amount of attentiveness. I have the red snapper with dirty rice and my husband had the fried catfish and grits. We also shared the Brussel sprouts which were very good. They are sweet which I liked. I added a little squeeze of lemon to mind and that took them over the top! Only issue we had was the flies on the patio which could not be helped. We will visit again! read more

Keeping it short--Toast gets a lot of hype in Atlanta, and I can see why. The menu is huge, with plenty of choices whether you're in the mood for something sweet or something savory. The restaurant is nicely decorated and surprisingly spacious, especially with the patio included. Definitely make a reservation because it fills up fast. We came for an early brunch at 10:30 a.m., and it was already packed! We grabbed seats at the bar, which worked perfectly for just the two of us. I snapped a few pics of our plates below. Solid Atlanta brunch spot--I'd happily come back. Highlights: Biscoff French Toast is very Thick and Decadent Crab Cakes were very meaty and not much breading. Mac N Cheese was ok imo. Got dry super fast. read more

I'm going to start by saying defiantly make reservations!! This place gets packed fast!! I think the bar is open sitting but that fills up too. The service here was really good. Our server Jay was on it. Giving us time to order and had some good suggestions. I also will comment my water glass was always full! Now to the real stuff the food. The food comes out super fast! There wasn't anything here that I didn't like. Top recommendation the seafood dip (with extra bread) and the chicken sauce gravy. The one downside, but small, the seafood gumbo. Had lots of flavor and meat was a plus but the crab is still in the shell!! I don't know about you but I don't want to try to crack crab legs that has the gumbo sauce all on it. Overall, the food really good and nice potion sizes! read more

I like Toast, I really do, but they have dropped the ball a couple of times, and I didn't like it. I would like to state that I have been to both locations, but I want to focus mainly on the food itself across multiple visits. But the vibe is pretty consistent. Family-friendly, great spot for breakfast or brunch. The food generally hits the mark, except for the Cajun Seafood. I'm unsure if these dishes are made in advance and then reheated, but that was my experience. The center was cold, and at first, I thought I was imagining it, but upon a second opinion, the middle was basically an iceberg! Despite the uneven temperature, it was still very flavorful. If they could fix the heat distribution, I'd recommend giving it a try. The Kale Caesar Salad is absolutely delicious, and the salmon is juicy, tender, and full of flavor. I appreciate that the kale and croutons are finely chopped, and the Caesar dressing is creamy with just the right amount of tang. And on a separate occasion, I ordered the Fried Catfish and grits, 10/10 recommend. The grits are creamy, taste like a Sunday morning post-Sunday service; the fish is seasoned to perfection and has a perfectly crispy crust. The Salmon cakes remind me of my childhood. The Salmon cakes are served with a garlicy aioli, fluffy eggs, and creamy, cheesy grits with a crisp arugula salad on the side. This dish also comes highly recommended. I also want to speak about the French toast. The French toast is delicious; I had it served with powdered sugar and berries. Now this isn't on the menu, but you can get it altered. The drinks are FIRE! I've had a little of everything and haven't been let down yet! When it comes to service, I have mixed reviews, but overall, it's generally good. I have one occasion where the server wasn't as attentive. I was seated at the bar, and her main focus was on her phone. I tend not take things personally and will chalk it up to her having some personal issues. I prefer the Buckhead location over Midtown because parking at Midtown costs extra, while Buckhead's is free, even if it's inconvenient. read more

Toast on Lenox truly lives up to its reputation. Every time I'm in Atlanta, I hear rave reviews about this place, so I decided to check it out on Saturday. The restaurant was buzzing with energy, and both the food and atmosphere exceeded my expectations. The decor features nice large mirrors, and the bar is equipped with three flat-screen TVs, adding to the vibrant setting. Our server, Sam, was fantastic and really enhanced our dining experience. The Cajun Seafood Dip was a highlight, and as a fan of French Toast, I couldn't resist trying their Bananas Foster French Toast, both dishes were absolutely delicious. Reservation is a must! There's an armed security officer at the door, providing an extra layer of peace of mind. It's great to support a Black-owned business, and the fact that there's plenty of free parking is a huge plus. Overall, Toast on Lenox is definitely worth a visit. read more

I came here to celebrate my son and I's (twin) birthday (6/22). We had reservations, however the entire party needed to be present before we were seated. We were seated in the back in an adjacent room to the main dining area. Our seating was a bit tight for us to have had a 6 person party. Needless to say I really didn't get to enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant as much. Our waitress Tonae was pleasant and attentive. She gave a few suggestions but... my food was cold so honestly I can't say I enjoyed it. I still won't let this cloud her hospitality, so food aside she was nice. My Food - I ordered fish and grits, banana foster French toast, the seafood cajun dip. The only dish I had pleasure in eating is the dip. The rest of my food was cold, I assumed this because they waited for the rest of the food. When they brought our food to the table I became annoyed very quick! They brought one food item per plate and with all that we orders the table was not big enough to hold all of the plates I ended up picking plates up to make room for the rest of the dish set they brought out! Literally had to ask for a to-go plate to make room for us to eat with some comfort. My drink.... watered down and weak! read more

We showed up to eat breakfast here. I have a service dog who was with me. The host told us we had to wait outside because of the dog. I explained it was a service dog and that we were legally allowed the same rights as anyone else. She told us to outside again. They were not only rude, but breaking the law. I would never give my business to a place that treats someone with a disability as a second rate citizen. They should be ashamed of themselves. read more

Brief visit to the Atlanta area to see my godchildren who live in Lawrenceville; Toast is the TOAST OF THE TOWN. Blackened salmon, honey fried chicken were sumptuous. Food is superb, service is impeccable, atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Ms. Young is absolutely lovely and runs the establishment with kindness, courtesy and compassion. Unlike the leftist radicals in Atlanta, she welcomes everyone, even a conservative from New York like me. Thank you Tami, may you prosper and flourish for decades to come. read more

Solid breakfast spot with great portions. I ordered the Lennox breakfast and it came with so much food--definitely worth it if you're hungry. My friends got the açaí bowl and the Biscoff pancakes, and both looked really good. The server was super nice and handled the crowd well, especially since it was busy with graduation. Overall, it was a great experience, though I've had some better breakfast spots but I would go back and try other ideas. That said, the biscuit alone was worth ordering. read more
