Carrie FMarch 17, 2014We had a very delightful time visiting with family while enjoying a wonderful meal, That you can only get here. I would define the food as country food from an earlier time in my life.
Riding BeanMarch 24, 2017Has a southern feel, some live music. A good fried chicken place, everything the salad bar offers is unique. Oddly enough loved the picked watermelon rinds. Amazing. Chicken is worth it.
Kiana BrownNovember 19, 2018Fried chicken was the best part of my meal. Smoked gouda mac and cheese was good too. Mom and dad didn't like crab cake. Bread pudding was amazing! Peach cobbler was okay. Would only recommend chicken
Lauren MacNovember 1, 2016Warm, crisp fried chicken cooked to perfection. Salad bar is great too! Classic Southern charm and ambiance.
Gena DixonMay 17, 2018Very unique salad bar. Fried chicken is fresh amd juicy, but def need hot sauce. Good atmosphere, clean, friendly servers and staff.
David EldridgeJuly 7, 2015If there for a group, go for the fried chicken over the ribs. Pickled water melon rind is delicious...who knew?! Probably never would have tried it if it weren't on the salad bar.
Alyssa MarieOctober 10, 2014The Tuesday lunch special was amazing! Service is great and such a great value!
AmandaSeptember 4, 2012Right next to the Westin with Southern fried awesome food. Service is great, drinks are strong and my friends refused to stop chewing long enough to tell me how great it was.- Michael BossMarch 30, 2013Whatever you order, ya'll need to include a trip to the sideboard for some amazing salads. This was my first experience with picked watermelon rind!
Kelli GoldmanDecember 4, 2011This is NOT an incredible restaurant. Yes, the atmosphere is great. The salad bar is tasty and authentically southern. But my ribs were drowned in sauce, fried chicken mediocre, institutional taters.
NostawOctober 23, 2013If you're ordering an entrée, skip the aps and head straight for the salad bar. Make sure to try the pickled watermelon rind!
Michael TolbertMay 23, 2013everything is good on the menu. I was only in Atlanta for three days and dinner here twice.
Rich CloseFebruary 3, 2013You must sit in Big Mama's section. She is awesome and will take great care of you. Love ya Big Mama!
Greg RDecember 5, 2014Fried chicken was the bomb. And pickled watermelon rinds were surprisingly good.
Mike KulickNovember 9, 2010Delicious, authentic Southern fare. If you want a drink that'll knock you down-a serious drink-order the Ankle Breaker. My waiter said he's never seen someone be able to order two! I certainly couldnt
Lindsey McDanielSeptember 1, 2013Fried green tomatoes and remoulade sauce were delicious. Cute mason jar margaritas.
Jon BaughMarch 4, 2010Try the chicken and rib combo, it's juicy and delicious! Also, plan some time to sit in the rocking chairs after your meal. It's just like Grandma's but with amazing food, sry Grandma :-p
Cherie PeirceOctober 26, 2013Highly recommend Pittypats. I had the best fried chicken I have ever tasted here!!
All of the food here is Excellent! Ask for Melba as your server! Tell Brian you heard about them on The Dishing with Donna Show!!
Lillian-Lotus BuccolaJanuary 21, 2013Did you know it's the oldest restaurant in downtown? Apparently out is! I recommend the ribs and shrimp.
Leesie MonteJanuary 1, 2017Our waitress was too busy to attend to us, so we had to beg for water, tea, sides, to order, etc. Then the food-fried chicken, ribs, shrimp and grits, was over cooked. Don't waste your time here!
- Jordan CaradonnaJune 18, 2017Fried chicken was good. Entrees were on the expensive side though. $9 charge for splitting an entree seems unnecessary.
Er O.June 27, 2011Try the Fried Chicken and Biscuits - W/ Fried Green Tomatoes and Ankle Breaker (Rum, Brandy, Fruit Juice)
Lovely GettnitAugust 17, 2013they call this a hurricane it was def a level 5 I couldnt finish the whole thing
Casey BrownFebruary 23, 2012The water comes in these chilled goblets...brrrrrr enjoy the atmosphere elements
WiFi Home Control ProSeptember 23, 2010Great authentic southern food. Great food, great price. Outstanding Atmosphere.
Robin McLeanDecember 1, 2012Service absolutely terrible. Over 15 minutes waiting for our check when done and it was wrong. Twenty minutes of waiting later and still not correct. If you have time for bad service the food is good.
