“LOVE THIS PLACE! Cookies are amazing and the staff is on top of everything. They make sure you are def satisfied with the cookie and are so kind. Perfectly clean too”

“Lester and the atmosphere are nice, the food is delicious, and the wine and cocktails are good. There is a set menu for lunch, so you can enjoy a delicious lunch at a reasonable price. The soup was a bit salty, and they bring several desserts so you can choose from them. The dessert looked pretty, but the taste was so-so.”

“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!!”

“Fresh, hot, mouthwatering deliciousness. That's the fried chicken is. And the coleslaw? delish!”

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!”

“I eat here all the time! Best pho in the area!! Great service, and super clean!!”

“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.”

“Never knew there was a Red Lobster closer to me which makes dining out convenient. The best part of my experience was my server LAUREN!! She’s was knowledgeable about the menu items, efficient with her service, and the smile on her face was a plus!!”

“We always go to the Gusto’s in Buford, GA that’s our go to spot when we’re running errands and need a quick, healthy, wholesome bite to eat. Great customer service and friendly atmosphere. Food is always fresh and exactly how we like it!”

“Everyone here is great every time i come in!! No matter what, I'm always greeted and given the best service. my most recent time here, there was a young guy training on the grill and he wasnt too quick. It was busy and he and the server were getting stressed out but! Giving him a chance everyones food ended up being fantastic :) it was probably one of the best hashbrown bowls i've ever had.”

“Yes I love our customers and my co-workers.”

“I eat at this Waffle House 3 to 4 times a week. All of the staff is awesome: Candy, Preston, Jessica, Jackie always are attentive and check with me regularly. (I drink a lot of coffee) Food is great also”

“the best thing about this restaurant is a waitress named bethany lol! its also immaculately clean and run by the best manager and district manager”

“They were as dead as you could be on a Monday night. They sprang into action when I walked in, however, like it was Sunday morning.

Outstanding service!”

“wonderful experience... gave the cook a $20 tip!!!”

“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 ...”

“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!”

“The pastries were so beautiful! And the one I ate tasted just like those I consumed in France. The coffee is good too. I'm definitely going back to try more.”

“A family favorite for us. Rico’s is our go-to local restaurant where we always know it will be great.”

“Amazing food and very friendly service! We will be back many times”

“First time at El Taco Jalisco. Food, service and atmosphere are awesome. Waitress was helpful in our menu choice. They have breakfast too. Very authentic food, but not super spicy. There is a spicy sauce on the table. Few tables and a few booths. They get pretty busy at times. Check the website for hours.”

“We’ve been here a couple of times now and the food is always on point and the staff is always very friendly. Absolutely recommend!!”

“This was our first time in today. Service was great and staff were very friendly. Food was excellent and well priced for the quantity. I would highly recommend this restaurant.”

“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.....”

“I'm not quite sure what happened to my previous review from YEARS ago.... Maybe i deleted it in error while trying to edit photos. If you've been to the Dawg House, then you already know this review isn't for you. This review is for anyone online looking for a place to eat. What to expect at the Dawg House: 1. Fresh food 2. Amazing taste 3. Large variety of items to pick from 4. Great price 5. Amazing/kind service They can get busy during peak hours, so if you're in a hurry and expecting to order and get your food in 3-5 minutes... go to a fast food joint instead. This family is amazing and always makes sure everything you get is FRESH. Freshness can take time, so sit down with a friend, enjoy a conversation, and enjoy the feast you're about to receive. A few of my favorites are: Their wings (Lemmon peper and mango jabañero... best wings I know of), their burgers (they also have smash burgers now), their chicken Philly (pictured here), their chili cheese dog, etc etc etc... you get the point. The Dawg House is honestly one of only a FEW places where I've been going for years, and EVERY item is great. I've never had a visit where i thought, "eh... not a fan. " Makes it tough because when you go back, you don't know what to get because it is all good. During peak hours, sitting inside may be a bit tough to find as the space is on the smaller side. Order to go if you're visiting during peak hours. They have a COCA-COLA machine for self serve delicious and crisp sodas. I'll be sure to update more photos as I visit. Shame all the pictures I've taken through the years are gone, but this just means I get to go back and retry everything on their menu!!”

“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.”

“Friendly staff every thing is baked fresh”

“Comida muy buena 😀buen precio y la atención al cliente excelente .”

“My wife and I absolutley loved the food, huge portions, great atmosphere, and super friendly staff!”

“My 14 year old son wanted to go here so badly! It was a 45 min drive, but so worth it! I've been to similar places before. This was, by far the best!

We got the all upu care to eat option for $29.95 each. This includes everything except drinks and sashimi. The conveyer belt had a huge variety of sushi, all very fresh. We also were able to order hot dishes and dessert off an electronic menu right at the table. As soon as the dishes were ready, they were sent to the table via a conveyer belt that resembled an electric train. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was brightly decorated. Very kid friendly, but it also had a fully stocked bar. So fun!”

“A lovely restaurant run by a lovely family. Great tasting food, excellent service and a chill ambience. A great friend introduced me to this gem and I will definitely return very soon.”

“We went to city barbecue today and the staff was very accommodating.All the food was really good. It's a great environment to bring your family. The manager in house were very pleasant.”

“I needed a cake for my daughter's birthday last year and I have to say that cake was one of the best cakes I have tasted in a long time. We really enjoyed it. The owner, Patricia, was so nice & friendly. Would highly recommend!”

“Tequila Mama advertises Half price house cocktails on Thursdays but when we went and ordered House Margaritas the check comes and they are full price. We ask to speak to the manager and he is all snobby and just says "For us Margaritas are not a cocktail". Ok well for the rest of the entire world Margaritas are a cocktail and your special doesn't say anything about exlucuding it. So these guys are dishonest jokes. If I have anything to say about it we won't be back.”

“really great service fast and the food was good and employees are great”

“Best hands down, Starbucks count your days”

“Food and service was excellent!!”

“The food is always amazing”

“Great burger deal on Monday, we stopped going thru back home and the burger was good. I am a medium rare burger guy but you can only get medium. The service was a little slow but luckily we were not in a hurry.”

“Burger was burnt, Steak was tough, and the redrock shrimp were great but salmon was dry. The ribs were amazing they were literally falling off the bone even the next day.”

“My husband and I just had lunch at the Buford location and what a hidden gem!!! The people were very friendly and the food was amazing! I’ve never had this type of fare before but oh my goodness! It was sooo good! We had a pollo empanada that was unlike any I’ve had before and a plantain dish I cannot remember the name of but it is probably my new favorite food so I need to figure it out 🤣 My husband had a ham and cheese croissant sandwich and inhaled it before I could even ask if he liked it. They’re very fast, very clean, very nice and the food is delicious! Do yourself a favor and check them out!”

“I finally ate here for the first time last night, and it was wonderful! The decor and atmosphere is bright and uplifting, and the food and service were exceptional. I ordered the Spicy Garlic Tonkotsu, and the spice level and flavor were perfect! I will definitely be back!”

“La Madeleine is a perfect spot for a peaceful morning coffee with friends. The café has a warm, inviting atmosphere with charming French-inspired décor. In the mornings, it’s especially quiet, making it an ideal place to sit, sip, and enjoy good conversation.”

“Their burgers are heavenly. The staff is really nice and the atmosphere is very welcoming🥰”

“Traveling back home to North Carolina and stopped here for lunch. WOW! My husband and I are very impressed with the food and fast service! Highly recommend.”

“great food fast,recommended”

“Wil and Zuzka were wonderful hosts! The coffee is excellent and the place attractive. I enjoyed the information about the on-site roaster. Do yourself a favor and visit.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Great service, our waitress Nicole was very attentive with a great personality for a table of 6. The food and drinks were top notch and highly recommended that you give this business a try, you will not regret it.”

“Some of the best bbq I’ve had. Great taste. Very tender and moist. You can taste the fat as well. The sauce was really good. Great flavor. Portion size was great. Priced better than others around town.”

“WEI Buford! Authentic Chinese food is a good place to hang out with friends and family. Fried noodles are always a great choice.Friendly service and great food always make a meal more enjoyable.”

“I had a great pour over coffee and chicken salad on a croissant. The staff was friendly. I did some work there after, and it was a great atmosphere.”

“Who doesn't love #ItalianFood? Vinny's was VERY GOOD! The warm, soft, buttered, garlic rolls were delicious and both the entrees we had were very tasty! It's always nice to find a "go to" Italian restaurant.”

“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.”

“This place is great! From the cleanliness of the establishment, to the amazing staff, and last but not least, the delicious food! When I first discovered this place I went 3 times in a week!”

“yo no sabia que tenia esta pasteleria tan cercas de mi casa y ahora que probé el pan, roscas, flan, gelatinas y los pasteles solo me falta los bolillos ja ja ja ja. les puedo decir que estan deliciosos y económicos. el servicio de lujo super amables y informativos y Beatriz no se diga super alegre”

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 hope they reopen soon I miss them . Very good service and food . Bless you”

“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.”

“For me - this is the best restaurant on Lake Lanier. Love the Buffalo chicken pizza - just add bacon. The salmon BLT is so tasty, too. Hard to go wrong at Twisted Oar.”

“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 donuts are amazing! Their light, airy they're not greasy. Beautiful atmosphere. Amazing customer service. Definitely will be returning and spreading the word. It's hard finding a really good donut place. So we do travel pretty far but it's so worth it!”

“Bobby most definitely took good care of us. Kept on checking if we are good. The foods amazing. Such a good experience.”

“A lovely restaurant run by a lovely family. Great tasting food, excellent service and a chill ambience. A great friend introduced me to this gem and I will definitely return very soon.”

“Tonight I had Los Cabos for the first time from El Rey Del Pastor. I will say that it was very good and I would recommend this dish to all sea food lovers. So far every time I have a meal from here it is prepared to my liking. I’m just saying that I feel like I get the best treatment every time I go! Thanks guys if it’s just me thanks but you guys do me right I must say.”

“Absolutely loved the cozy atmosphere and warm hospitality at Big Cheese Cafe, a Mediterranean family restaurant.

We are returning each week knowing that they will not disappoint.”

“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!”

“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.”
