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. Lately, it seems like something has changed in the process. The cheesecake hasn't been setting properly, and the cream cheese isn't fully blended into the sweet potato, leaving noticeable chunks. The flavor, once rich and decadent, has also diminished, making me question if it's still worth the trip. That said, I've heard the rest of the food is still solid, so if you're craving Southern comfort food, it may still be worth checking out. But for me, unless the cheesecake returns to its former glory, I might have to sit this one out.

One word- OUTSTANDING!!! This is the old Wendy's just down…read morefrom Northlake Mall, on Lavista Road. It is YELLOW- and yes, you can almost miss it if you are going too fast. A decent size parking lot, a round-robin of customers & I spoke to a few who are repeats- they love it! The restaurant is clean & organized- booths & tables. Charging stations (plugs) available as well. Walk up counter, place order, wait for your number to be called. Do not be in a rush- made-to-order!! Worth the wait!!! If you are not starving- split a meal with a friend- portions are huge & truly DELICIOUS!!! Ask for sauces, if you want. They have tartare, cocktail & homemade hot sauces. Fresh lemons too. Pepsi products, sweet/unsweetened tea... NO ALCOHOL! Outstanding employees! All so nice! Big menu- ask for one if needed, they have scrolling screens & it is hard to figure out. Menu is best to figure out what you want. Literally EVERYTHING was SO fresh & delicious!!! Mom thought salty, so maybe ask for light/no salt if this is a dietary restriction. They have fresh & fried options. Here are pics of our meals. All left with to-go's. Note, meals are served in to-go containers, not actual plates. The music is fun but WAY WAY WAY too loud. Heads up.

This is the type of food that pulls in every crowd... doesn't matter your age, race, or occupation. Spinach was well seasoned, fries/hushpuppies were just the right amount of crispy, chicken was perfect. The bathrooms were horrible which is concerning.

My only gripe about that situation. Anyway... This establishment is very aesthetically pleasing. The staff were very attentive and helpful with our large party which I loved. I noticed they had a lot of servers working, and everyone pitched in all over the restaurant to help with delivering orders big plus. For our large group it did not take long for us to get our food which another plus.

Even though we didn't have a reservation, he was able to get a table for me and five other people, which we really appreciated. Once we sat down, our server came over quickly. I ordered the gumbo as a starter, and I swear it came out within a minute of placing my order. It was SO fast! The gumbo was piping hot and even burned my tongue a little, but I'm not mad at it at all lol. It was delicious! For my meal, I got the chicken and waffles with mac and cheese, and everything was so good. The chicken was well-seasoned, the waffle was fluffy and delicious, and the mac and cheese was a great addition. I highly recommend coming here! I would definitely suggest making a reservation beforehand, especially if you're coming with a group. The food and experience are absolutely worth the price. If I'm ever back in ATL, I will definitely be coming back!

I tried the fried chicken entree with macaroni and broccoli on the sides which tasted amazing. The chicken wasn't too salty, the baked macaroni was cheesy but not too creamy (exactly how i like it) & the broccoli was pretty average until I decided to pour some of the hot honey sauce on it. Highly recommend!My friend tried the seafood eggrolls which were deliciously packed with shrimp & crawfish.

Looked like the Chicken Fried Chicken was very good as well. My wife really liked her salad and the sauce for the Grilled Spanish Octopus had a great taste, but the Octopus was a bit overcooked. I had the Shrimp and Grits, which were excellent. The fresh off the cob corn was a twist I hadn't experienced before and it was a great addition. The shrimp was fully shelled, so I wasn't digging around and pulling off tails. The sauce, chipotle butter was insane, I could have had a cup of it and wanted more. I also got a side of the fried Brussels, great move by me. Great place!

Ordered over the phone and got the sloppy joe and the French dip. Quick heads up for anyone…read moreordering the French dip, they ask if you want fries or chips and don't mention there's a $3 upcharge for the fries, so that caught me off guard. Pricing overall is steep for lunch, $17 for the sloppy joe and $24 for the French dip. I also added two THC cocktails at $24, so we're talking a $75 lunch. Also a little odd, the receipt states if you leave without signing it they'll add a 20% service charge on top. Wasn't expecting that. Food-wise it was fine. The French dip has a strong smoky flavor which was a different take on it. The sloppy joe lived up to its name, extremely sloppy. Overall it was an okay lunch, nothing spectacular for the price point.

Ambiance: none at all but this is a buhi (buford highway) establishment so I couldn't care less about ambiance or service; just give me the good food. They really should swap out the fluorescent/LED lights and I'm not sure if it's an authentic addition but there's a gambling room too connected to the dining room lol. lol Service: table service, however we paid at the register at the end of our meal. Sort of like Waffle House lol. At the time of our visit, it was one woman who was both the cashier and server but we also visited at like 10am in a Friday morning LOL. We know it's an odd time. I will say the food took longer than expected but then again we got like 6 homemade tortillas soOo... I won't complain bc I can't make my own tortillas any faster than they can Food: We wanted to do a breakfast that was quite unique and we definitely got it here at this authentic Guatemalan restaurant. I got the desayunos rancheros ($14) with "medium well eggs" and my bf basically got the same thing but with a side of sausage ($2) instead of steak. Both proteins were absolutely delicious and eggs were deliciously cooked. The table received some homemade tortillas (LITERALLY THE REASON TO GET BREAKFAST HERE) and we made little breakfast tacos with our eggs, meat, beans, salsa, and cheese. The yolks made a perfect dipping vehicle for our tacos. I cannot get over how perfect the tortillas were; warm and soft. Coffee also wasn't bad but their creamer is a powder (also not sure if this is just a Guatemalan thing or not lol but I drink my coffee black so it didn't matter to me)

That's usually both a…read morered and green (brown? lol) flag for me, but the space is huge - indoor and outdoor seating - so putting our names down only resulted in a 20 minute wait. Entirely manageable. Started off with the Tropic Like It's Hot mocktail (pineapple, orange juice, coconut water cream). Pretty tasty, crisp, and refreshing. Then came the cornbread muffins with the "liquid gold" spun honey. Unbelievable. Hot, crumbly, and easily the best thing on the table. Whoever is running the pastry program in the back understands pure physics. I could've eaten a dozen of those alone. For the entree, I got the Spiced Maple Chicken & Grits - fried chicken tossed in maple hot sauce, grits, two eggs, benton's bacon, and scallions - along with a side biscuit and jam. Complete hit. The chicken had a great crunch, the heat-to-sweet ratio was locked in, and the grits were smooth. Biscuit was flaky and proper, too. Bottom line: Buttermilk Kitchen executes at a high level even when swamped. Just don't skip the cornbread. I'll definitely be back.

I came earlier this year for the first time and had the warmest waitress, Lindsey. She was so…read morepleasant and friendly. She even told me that I couldn't leave without trying a biscuit and brought one complimentary. I would give that experience a 5 and I would give my last experience a 3 but let's just do an average. That's how I got four stars. This time, the service felt very different. Our waitress, Nekale, had a pleasant voice and was a beautiful woman, but she lacked warmth or friendliness. She definitely had the RBF going on. It felt like when someone says "I love you" with a stern face. Maybe something happened that day and she had an attitude, but if that's the case, don't interface with people on the floor. The girl brought lukewarm coffee, and my mom had to ask for fresh coffee. I was a little embarrassed because it was my mom's first time there and the service was blah. My mom said her grits were lukewarm, and so were my potatoes. She did not want to send them back because she was hungry, so she just ate them and did not say anything to me until she was almost done. Everything came out at a great time, and the presentation was amazing. It all looked very delicious. However, when I bit into my chicken biscuit, I got a lot of grease. In addition, I had asked if everything was an even swap, and she said yes, but when I paid, I saw an upcharge for my potatoes. All in all, I was very disappointed that the service was not as great as I experienced the first time. I was also disappointed that my food wasn't amazing. That said, I will still be back at some point.

And house specials, is friendly and engaging. He makes the rounds and talks to the customers, makes them feel like home. All the staff seem to work together well and a very jovial. I sat at the counter cuz I was flying solo and had nice conversations with those next to me. The way the entire building is decorated is completely eye candy and as satisfying as the food. If you like crazy loopy, different kind of stuff. There's a specific coffee shop and small gift shop in the back with social & environmental conscious products. Even have a film development drop off that I guess locals take advantage of cuz where do you go for that anymore other than some kind of chain pharmacy?. I took pictures for my posting but also for myself to consider coming back and shopping another time. Several of the magnets and signs I would love to own. The food is plentiful and flavorful. I had the daily special of Georgia fresh shrimp sauteed on top of homemade sourdough that had a little bit of a French toast crispy to it, topped with roasted tomatoes and spinach and thin crispy onions that were well seasoned. Most the time for lunch you just hope for something that taste good and this was beyond my wildest dreams of what I was going to eat for lunch today. And it was only $10. The burgers, the fried chicken, the fried shrimp, everything was looking so yummy. I totally have to come back. The place is much bigger than it looks from the front because it extends around the corner behind the counter and they greet you when you come in.

There's some limited parking in the lot behind the restaurant, but there's otherwise street parking in the general neighborhood. Come hungry! Portion sizes are huge and food is heavy.

If you're trying to get in and out, I recommend coming with smaller groups, like 2-4 people. I think it'd be chaotic to try and deal with a big party in the basement dining area. Recommend any of the fried chicken dishes, biscuits, and fried okra.
