“Wonderful experience tonight for our anniversary dinner. Steaks were wonderful, sides and apps were great as well. The blueberry cheesecake was the absolute best thing we have ever eaten, don’t leave without it.”
“Food and Service was absolutely incredible. Amazing experience and I can’t wait to go back. I drove from Ellijay and it was well worth it!! Food was to DIE FOR!!”
“Outstanding! We always enjoy celebrating our special occasions at Seasons 52. Our server, Jo Jo, was extremely professional and super friendly. Our meals were delivered promptly and were piping hot and DELICIOUS! Keep up the great work Seasons 52!”
“Our waiter Quinnshawn was amazing. He kept our drinks full and the biscuits coming. He recommended a mixture of 2 sauces that was out of this world. The food was a 10 all the way around. At the end they surprised us with a happy anniversary desert. ( we were celebrating our anniversary.) Thank you Quinnshawn and the red lobster family for being a major part of making our day special!”

“Omg! Every time I’m here I love it more! Absolutely the BEST food, service, people. It’s all 10 stars! I used Suthern Cluck to cater a meal for 48 people (my son’s theater group) and it was raved about for weeks! They are the best at all they do and they do it with a superior execution! Chef’s kiss! 😘”
“Absolutely delicious and fresh! Decided to give this a try based on reviews and how quickly we needed to get through our meal. The bowls were sooooo tasty and the sauces were the perfect topping for the meals. Looking forward to taking our kids. Also, love the music. It’s always an uplifting meal!”
“On my way to Walmart on Buford Drive in Buford, I finally decided to stop by Mama’s Pho—a Vietnamese spot I’d heard good things about. And wow, I’m glad I did! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting, with authentic touches that transport you straight to a family-run eatery in Vietnam. The staff greeted me with smiles and seated me right away. Service was impressively fast, but never rushed—just the right balance of efficiency and friendliness. As for the food? Absolutely incredible. I ordered the traditional pho, and it hit every comforting note—rich, fragrant broth, tender cuts of meat, and fresh herbs that made each bite pop with flavor. But Mama’s Pho doesn’t stop at Vietnamese classics. Their menu also offers a well-rounded variety of Asian fusion dishes—like hibachi plates, Pad Thai, and stir-fried noodles—so there’s something for everyone. One standout that I have to mention: the Vietnamese iced coffee. Smooth, strong, and perfectly sweet—it was the ideal treat to top off an already satisfying meal. Whether you're craving a steaming bowl of pho or a flavorful hibachi dish, Mama’s Pho is worth the stop. It’s a hidden gem that blends authenticity, variety, and great service, all under one roof. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Great food, great outdoor seating. Though I've been there before, I will comment on the pricing between what shows on Google and at food truck. I ordered one order of empanadas after I got done eating, thought I was going to get four, noticed when I got home the next day it was only two.
Though much bigger empanadas, I was kinda hoping for four.
Doesn't matter food was still absolutely amazing, I haven't been to Colombia in about 25 years, and it was reminiscent of the street food I had when I lived there.
Would absolutely recommend, and will be going m, and supporting a local small business
Thought I took pictures of the food, I typically do, but forgot
Parking: Parking is a bit tight. Between the apartment building, and the restaurants, I did have to walk from the gravel area.”
“The BEST place ever! I am traveling from out of state, surprised by this gem of a place. Amazing vegan options, sushi, curry, Thai, Chinese, boba… you name it! the place is very cute as well, good environment for hang outs. Food came out quickly, amazing hospitality, 10/10 for the flavor, and very affordable. They have great promotions depending on the item and time you visit. I ate so fast, didn’t take enough pictures. But I do have some leftover and I even got something to go ( it looked too good). 100% will come back again”
“Excellent hotpot place in town! It includes many delicious hot appetizers. The food items are fresh. Very friendly staff and quick service. Clean and inviting atmosphere. They give you metal spoons instead of plastic ones. My husband and I highly recommend this place. If you don't want to do hot pot, you can order a la carte.”
“I love 💕 37 Main the staff is so friendly and welcoming especially Rob at the door!! The bands are always amazing!! I highly recommend this place for good times and great music!!”

“Came here for my 16th birthday, our waiter Chris was awesome and friendly. 10/10 would recommend.”
“I traveled from North Carolina to celebrate the 4th of July holiday and discovered this fabulous restaurant near the Mall of Georgia. It was a pleasant surprise. The hostesses were bland and dry. They need more training on how to greet but my waitress Ana welcomed me with a great attitude. She made me feel so comfortable as if I was in her home personally. She exemplified excellent customer service skills. The Latin fusion was phenomenal and the DJ was on point. I didn’t want to leave. The vibe was fiyah!! I will return to get some of the best hot honey garlic wings, chips and salsa and more menu choices!”

“This Waffle House is top notch and the staff are always friendly, attentive and quick! We stop in on very busy Saturday mornings and are always impressed by how well the team performs. Nina gets it right every time! This location is great and their latest public health score is 100. Who could ask for more?”
“They need to close this MF. I always ask for Bar-b-que sauce and never get it. I drink unsweet yea, I get sweet tea. People always on their phone at the window ... Every single day they have new people working there. They don't know how to take orders, There are very slow. Where do y'all find these people. They are dumb, stupid and retarded all in one ...”
“Been here so many times. Food is pretty good, service is pretty good usually, however..... they could spend more effort on cleanliness. Tables, revolving area, monitors (where food is ordered from, the delivering tray and many other things need a good wipe down!!! Please wipe!!!”
“My family loves this place. We come here on a fairly regular basis. The atmosphere is fun and great. The staff are always friendly and accommodating. Susanna waits on us a lot. She is always smiling and checks on us regularly. Their drinks are amazing also...Very authentic Mexican food with good size portions.”

“My daughter and I have been eagerly counting down the days until Okiboru opened. What a treat it was to enjoy lunch there today! We arrived about five minutes before the store was supposed to open and were prepared to wait outside. Nope! The door opened for us and we were happily ushered inside to the beautiful new eatery. We were pleased with many choices on the menu—truly something for everybody—and enjoyed all of the dishes we tried today. We ordered spicy ramen, Tsukemen, and two different smell plates to ensure we got to taste a variety of menu offerings. Everything was delicious and brought us back to sampling ramen on a trip to Japan several years ago. Customer service was also excellent. The restaurant may be new but the staff already have everything down perfectly. A shoutout to our waitress Cassie who made sure we knew all about tsukemen, guided us when we asked for some pronunciation help, and made sure we were taken care of well for the duration of our visit. We will be back time and time again. Okiboru is a welcome addition to the food available at the mall!”
“Taco Jalisco has great food and impressively quick service. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu—everything I’ve tried has been delicious. My personal favorites are the taco de asada, taco al pastor, and their tortas, which are all packed with flavor. If you're looking for authentic, satisfying Mexican food, this spot is a must-visit.”
“Great service, good to great food and a busy-under-control atmosphere. Always good to have a reservation. Let me tell 'ya brothers 'n sisters, there SHOULD BE ONE OF THESE IN OUR CLOSE LOCALITY. We hit some high places and others on our Sunday Brunch research, this is one of the better places we visit. We have been to a couple locations with great to greater results every time. This location is near the Mall of Georgia, pretty close in real terms. The DO have reservations, so it makes it a pleasure to go, to be seated quickly and have good service, a full bar and a competent kitchen staff.. This time our waitress was Kashmir and she was the best. We also had a Chance to talk to the AG (Assistant Goddess) Pam, she remembered us from our past visit-months ago, and was both cordial and helpful. We DO NOT forget good staff. The food was all on point, my Avocado Eggs Benedict was terrific with a good amount of Cheesy Hollandaise sauce and perfect poached eggs. Deanne's omelette was terrific, so was her pancake --she said. Bill's Crab-Cake Eggs Benedict was just right. The coffee's were great, and the brunch cocktails were some of the best we encounter on our weekly brunch-hunt.. Kudos to you and your staff, Snooze.....”

“Awesome 5course tapas and tequila dinner with good friends- we’ll be back!”
“My husband surprised me with a date night at the Blue Mermaid Saturday night. it was soooo good!! Our hostess was so helpful with us choosing what to eat. ( we aren't too familiar with Middle Eastern cuisine) The food was fresh and delicious. We highly recommend this lovely restaurant and are planning to come back soon.”

“The best authentic Mexican food! Absolutely the best. My favorite is the veggie torta! But everything here is good. Breakfast tacos are awesome as well. They open early 6:30 am. They make their own salsa which is amazing also. Really can't go wrong. Don't be off put by it being in a gas station. They been here for many years and hopefully will be for many many more!”

“If you are looking for authentic Chinese Food, WEI is your spot! We have been coming here since the beginning in 2021!
The food, facility, and service is top notch. It’s in the heart of the Mall of Ga area and probably the best Chinese food in the area. Their only competition is PF Changs at the Mall, Peking House near Kroger on Peachtree Industrial, Eastern China near Publix on Peachtree Industrial Road, and Chen’s on Hamilton Mill. Nonetheless, it’s the best for authentic Chinese food. Not over seasoned and perfect for guest looking for home cooking!
We had Shrimp fried Rice, Pepper steak with peppers and onions, and their hot and sour soup! Absolutely delicious!
Our host was Jenny and made sure our dinner was quick and perfectly prepared.
With that, if you’re looking for good Chinese Food, we highly recommend Wei Buford Authentic Chinese food!”

“I placed a delivery order. Renee went far above and beyond, delivering the food to our kitchen counter and coming out back to let us know it was here. The pizza was off the chain! And the wings were huge, tender and delicious! I will definitely order from them again.”

“Again, again and again my favorite cafe here! Visited again after some months in my home country and still the loveliest people working here, with yummy sweets and a hot chocolate to die for! Love it, just always so relaxing and and a nice variety to the loud and unpersonal standart cafes around here.
Kid-friendliness: cute motives on the sweets, and I sometimes have craft/draw/homework sessions with my young sisters here.”
“Cold Pressed Gwinnett's 3-Day Cleanse came right on time! I've been considering a cleanse to give my body a boost, and I'm happy I chose CPG's cleanse. The juices are delicious, and the wellness shot is a great jumpstart to the day. The detox instructions were detailed and answered all of my questions. I'll purchase again!”
“Absolutely loved the cozy atmosphere and warm hospitality at Big Cheese Cafe, a Mediterranean family restaurant. The flavors were a delightful journey, each dish telling a story of tradition and care. A hidden gem for those craving an authentic taste of Turkey in a welcoming setting. We are returning each week knowing that they will not disappoint.”
“Food was fantastic as always!! Our hostess, named Connie, was the friendliest and most accommodating hostess I’ve ever seen in a restaurant. Can’t wait to go back!”
“Food was quick and had good flavor. Customer service was consistent and friendly. The dining area was clean. The only issue was parking, hard to find a spot due to a small parking lot near the restaurant, but other lots are nearby.”
“This was our first time to the Lake Lanier waterpark and we had a blast. We ate here at the Paradise Beach Cantina and enjoyed everything well enough. We got their enchiladas and some nachos. The covered patio is a great spot to eat with a view of the park. The service was fast and friendly so I'm sure we will return here again on our next visit. With their proximity it's probably the best choice, especially if you're there with family.”
“At the oast I rated much better this olace but in the last 2 times we received not so good service . Or received almost cold food , take so long time waiting for our order or also waiting long time and until ask for refill our drinks ...”
“Great Habachi Place. The only thing I don't like is that they won't let you in unless everyone is present even though you have 1 person 5 minutes behind. You have to sit at the table for 30 minutes anyway.”
“Amazing experience!!! Not only are you on Lake Lanier but you get to experience great food. The food is well seasoned and the menu has a lot to offer.
When you go here and want to sit at the bar, ASK FOR HUNTER. He’s friendly but he has tons of experience in the kitchen as well as the bar. Your drinks will be made with love and you won’t regret it, seriously.
Great place!!!”

“Went today with my daughter- the manager Mitch was so friendly and was helpful to his staff, he was a breath of fresh air and he did everything possible to make sure our visit was top notch! Our waitress Ashley was attentive, professional and very nice as well as an outstanding waitress. We really appreciate all their hard work even though they didn’t have much staff. These two deserve a raise for everything they have to do every day!”
“I've been a Chinese buffet eater since I was a young man and I'm now in my mid-50s. This is the best I've ever had. And I have been to so many. I stated Chinese buffet but this is actually an Asian buffet. Mostly Chinese but a few things that are Japanese and Korean. You just can't beat the lunch price for this. $10 for quality food and there are so many options. The wait staff is superb. Dinner is quite a bit more so I usually just go at lunch. As far as I can tell the only thing dinner offers more is crawfish. Endless mussels which is my favorite. You won't find any tuna on the sushi bar but hey considering the price they are giving for a lunch buffet the sushi is good. Hot and sour soup is top-notch. Egg rolls are cooked perfectly and the fried rice is the only way to go if you get rice. As far as the main options and not the sides I highly recommend the Malaysian chicken. Add some extra onions and green peppers from some of the other dishes. On a bed of fried rice. It is unbelievably good. Throw in a few butter mushrooms if you like them and hit it lightly with soy sauce. I go about twice a month and I'm never disappointed.”
“Our visit was for a family birthday with a large party. The atmosphere and service made our evening very memorable. The special attention payed to the young people was much appreciated. The leftover dinner lastnight was every bit as delicious as it was in the restaurant. We will definitely drive from Snellville to visit again!”

“The Father's Day Celebration started yesterday with dinner at Bubba33! There was something on the menu for everyone in our party of 6! Everyone enjoyed their choices and had leftovers for later. The host was warm and gracious. Jayden, our server was attentive and kind! The atmosphere was great! All the stars for Bubba33 in Buford, GA!”
“Shoutout to our server, Mandy B for crushing it this evening. She was swamped with tables outside with little help, but she still kept a smile on her face and stayed on top of things.
This was my first time dining there. The food was really good and food pricing was very reasonable, but the cocktail prices are insanely high (my one mixed drink was 17.50 and not worth it). However, I would dine there again—just without cocktails next time.”
“Came to WB for a double with extra onion. Got up to the drive through and paid. Got my order and checked it. Immediately saw no onion at all. So I ask for some. She comes back and tells me they're OUT OF ONION.
ATTN MANAGER: Take a $20 out of the till and go 1/4 mile to Sprouts and buy some!!!”
