“Twice now I’ve stopped for takeout on the way back home while using the nearby supercharger. I would love to venture across the menu but road-tripping always means I have to stay protein focused — so far have had Gai Yang twice, steak, and an eggplant dish once.
That chicken and the accompanying sauce. Holy wow. I’ve been across the ocean to various countries to eat in Asia, had the luxury of living near PokPok for years in Oregon, and often end up in Nashville where the Michelin SS Gai is.
Whenever I come to Atlanta I’m committed to always stopping here (followed by some coffee and breads down the street at Paris Baguette). This restaurant its always quiet, has my food almost before I can walk down the hill from the chargers and is so delicious I will gladly litter my seats and wear fish sauced stained hands and beard the whole drive home.
Thank you for pulling me out of a deep food depression after spending all summer in Japan. The average southern palette unfortunately doesn’t appreciate Asian flavors enough so I’m hopeful this restaurant is around for a very long time to open more people up to some awesome flavor. The char and juiciness of the chicken and tang of the sauce is unmatched against some of the best out there. I will dream of it until next time! If there’s a cookbook to help scratch the itch in the meantime, I’ll be waiting with my grill”

“The food is always delicious. This time, our server MIKE made the whole experience even better! We lucked into a restaurant promo offered on Mondays, buy one take one home, and I just wish the closest location was not 100 miles from home! Try the red beans and rice, you will not be disappointed.”
“It's a fun place to go but they are going out of business at the end of Aug.2026 unfortunately they closed the patio it was a great time sitting outside listening to live music. Going to miss it.”

“We have been many times and it is always perfect. The staff are so welcoming and accommodating, and always go above and beyond good hospitality. The food is authentic and made with care, and the menu has something for everyone. We recently went to celebrate a birthday, and everyone made it so special! Hamsa and the rest of the staff were wonderful! We drive an hour and a half to eat there and it’s worth it!”
“We ate at Prince Palace for the first time today. The food was excellent! We had onion bhaji for appetizers, and they were really delicious, especially with the sweet brown sauce and the onion relish. I had a chicken vindaloo, and Lara had palak paneer. They very politely asked what spiciness levels we wanted (from 0 to 10)... I said 7 and the waiter raised his eyebrows, but nodded. Lara said "Zero!" Their freshly-baked naan was superb, and they had many varieties of it. Lara ordered a chai, and I tasted it. She had a hard time getting it back from me! We highly recommend Prince Palace Indian Bistro!”
“Went with my girlfriend for our 2 year anniversary. Travis was fantastic. He was knowledgable and courteous. He was there when needed and gone when not. The mahi appetizer was the highlight of our dining experience, 10/10 would reccomend. The steak was a little under done for medium rare and the lobster was a little overcooked. The brussel sprouts were solid. Great experience and it was made even better by Travis.”
“We love the food at Red lobster. We also love being greeted by the Host Doyle, he is the best person to see when you come in. My Family loves him. Thank you Doyle for all you do.”
“First time at this location and we had an amazing experience! Our server Andrew was very attentive and accommodating. He asked if there were any allergies at the table and made sure to accommodate accordingly. The food was also amazing, I highly recommend the spicy chicken ramen! Overall we had an amazing time here thanks to our server Andrew. 🙌”

“Waffle House Wade Green (really Busbee) has consistently been the best around for at least a decade. And I've tried them all. But I'm an easy-going guest; more importantly, the entire staff (cooks included) is absolutely wonderful toward my little girl, who has no inhibitions about making herself right at Waffle Home 🤦 lol. We love this place.”
“Elza was amazing server was so kind and nice. But the team work was not there amya was rude . Straight up said “who’s table is that asking me for stuff” when I asked for a to-go cup” was rude the whole time an clearly has a attitude problem maybe 2nd shift would be better for her. ( as a former server I can’t believe her attitude towards a table)”
“Destiny and Morgan were absolutely fantastic, and they made my husband's first time here so wonderful! Please give them both the proper recognition they deserve!! Thank you guys again! 💕”

“Loved it!! My favorite Pizza place in Kennesaw. I ordered the Calzone. It was hot and delicious. They have a fun comic book decor and video games and board games. A definite fun family meal! I also found out they cater. A must check out next time you are near the mall.”
“We had a great experience tonight at Mangiamos! It was our first time there and the food & service was wonderful. The eggplant parmesan over pasta was perfectly prepared. My husband had a meaty pizza which was just as good or better than expected. Our waitress, Debbie, provided exceptional service and was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She described each dish so vividly that it made choosing our meal both easy and exciting. Her recommendations were spot-on, and her friendly, attentive demeanor truly enhanced our dining experience. We support small businesses and will definitely visit again!”

“My husband and I ate here early evening on Friday 8/14/26. We hadn’t eaten here since they were in their previous location—quite some time! As we remembered, the food was fresh and delicious and reasonably priced. Service was friendly and the family owners clearly take pride in their business. Well done! We were the only people in there for about 15 minutes, we arrived around 5:15/5:30p. But as we ate, a line of patrons formed. We were glad to see that. My only issues were the music (loud and kind of weird), and there was a VERY off-putting odor that we noticed immediately upon entering, that got much stronger as we approached the counter. We almost opted to take our food to-go because of it. It was a mix of bathroom smell and maybe some sort of ammonia cleaner. So bad! We went the farthest from the counter to eat where it was less noticeable. I sincerely hope this was a one-off issue because it’s the only thing that would keep us from returning, and we’d really like to return! (No stars off for that because I want to support this wonderful local business.)”
“Last week stopped by Big Shanty Smokehouse in Kennesaw, Georgia. I’ve been going here for years and always has been one of my favorite places in Georgia. Paul Holden of Willingham's World Champion BBQ recently took over as the new owner in August and excited to see what he continues to bring. He’s top notch pitmaster in the competition world but also has been in the restaurant business as well. I got the brisket which was amazing and also some of their signature Turkey ribs (Friday Special) and of course some Brunswick stew and Mac & Cheese. Everything was very good and will be back soon. Currently they are open Wed-Thursday 11am-2pm & Friday-Saturday 11am-7pm. (So stop by and see them.)

“my wife and I absolutely love coming here! The bread sticks are hands down the best, and the marinara is amazing! Also, the homemade cantaloupe lemonade is 10/10! We are always greeted with such kindness and the owner is just so sweet! Everything we've tried has been delicious, we also recommend the BBQ chicken pizza!

“I ordered a pizza via the Newk's app at 4:32 PM, and it was projected to be ready by 4:42 PM. I made it to the restaurant at about 4:41 PM. The gentleman in the to-go failed to acknowledge my presence for almost 10 minutes, but he somehow managed to wait on 3 other ladies that entered the restaurant AFTER I did. I finally got irritated, because I didn't notice anyone working on my pizza in the kitchen nor had the gentleman in the to-go asked me about my order, so I went to the register and inquired about my Spicy Shrimp pizza. He grabbed the print out of my order off the order printing station AFTER he failed to acknowledge me for nearly 10 minutes (4:52 PM). By then, I'd been waiting 20 minutes from the time that I placed my order via the Newk's app (4:32 PM). He placed the print out of my order on the shelf for someone to finally make my Spicy Shrimp pizza. I waited another 10 minutes for them to make and bake my pizza, so I did not leave the restaurant with my food in hand until about 5:01 PM. I waited almost 30 minutes for an order that was placed via the Newk's app. I intentionally ordered ahead via the app, so that I did not have to wait for my order to made at the restaurant. I'm not at all pleased with the lack of hospitality and poor customer service that I received!”

“We arrived Friday with a large party of 8. We were served quickly and had the best waiter with an amazing personality! Thank you for making our dining experience great! Highly recommend!”
“Fantastic food, fresh, large portions. Service and atmosphere on point. High recommend 👌 Scalian Pancakes, Spicy Dumplings, Fish Ball Noodle Soup, Walnut Prawns was incredible! Sesame Balls Tasty! Support this business, much needed in the area!”
“As always the food and service were outstanding. The meal and service provide an experience to remember for a long time. Already looking forward to our next visit.”
“Visting from CLT for work, this was an amazing experience. Our waitress did a great job explaining the experience to us. What our sauces were, options and how to cook. Kept our drinks filled & checked on us often. The environment was great, music and overall was a 10! Can't wait to come back!!!”
“We had a little bit of a rough experience with our meal on Sunday (restaurant was super busy) but we spoke with the manager Lisa and she was absolutely incredible. It’s rare these days for a manager to care so much about customers experience. Thank you so much Lisa we greatly appreciate your concern and kindness we will definitely be back. Thank you Lisa”
“About a month ago, my wife and I visited VAMOS PAL CAFETAL for the second time. The place looks decent, and at the beginning the waitress was attentive and polite. My wife ordered a “picada,” which she did not enjoy at all. It was missing several items that are normally part of a traditional Colombian picada. We are both Colombian, so we know exactly what this dish should include. In my case, I ordered a breaded pork cutlet (“chuleta a la milanesa”). As soon as I cut the first piece and took a bite, I immediately noticed a horrible taste, as if the meat was spoiled or no longer fresh. It was so bad that I almost felt sick. I called the waitress right away, explained the situation, and expressed my complete dissatisfaction. She took the plate away, and we decided to ask for the check. What was truly disappointing is that no one ever came to our table to apologize — not the manager, not the cook, no one. It was as if nothing had happened. We paid and left, and we made the decision not to return. Unfortunately, based on this experience and the lack of basic customer service, I cannot recommend this restaurant. Be cautious and consider other options.”
“My youngest son too me for my birthday. WONDERFUL food and atmosphere! I had the Gluten free pasta with meat sauce, the endless salad and special ice cream, my son had the meat ravioli and garlic rolls. I highly recommend going to Provino’s for a nice Italian meal. On your birthday you do get a free meal, salad, garlic rolls and their ice cream! I’ve been to this location 3 times this year alone!!”
“Came here around 2 ish. Not sure who my server was but she was Awesome!!! My husband and I went on our weekly date here and I expected the drink flights to be weak! They were stronger than expected. My giant pretzel was fresh and tasted amazing! We played pool and had a great time. We will be back next week!!!”
“If you haven’t tried the jollof spaghetti at Chioma’s yet, you are definitely missing out! It has become a weekly favorite, my husband is absolutely addicted to it. 😂 At this point, he gets it every week, and it never disappoints.
He also loves the efo riro. According to him, the spice level is perfect, not overly spicy, but just enough heat to complement all that flavor. My daughter has officially claimed the egusi soup as her favorite. I ordered hers with turkey, and she absolutely loved it.
As for me, everything I’ve tried so far has been delicious, and I really enjoy the suya. It’s flavorful, well seasoned, and definitely something I always remember to add.
I would have included a photo of the jollof spaghetti with this review, but unfortunately, I’m married to a man who apparently believes pictures are optional when jollof spaghetti is involved. 😂 By the time I remember to take one, the food has disappeared!
Next time, I’m taking the picture before I even hand him the plate. 😂 Between the jollof spaghetti, efo riro, egusi soup with turkey, and suya, Chioma’s has something that everyone in our family enjoys. Definitely recommend Chioma's try!”
“One of the best servers I have had in a long time. Thanks for a good time”
“I went in for the $21.99 deal and specifically told the checkout person that's what I wanted. However, they gave me options and then charged me around $30. When I asked why, they said it was because I added items to my order. I explained that I asked for the standard $21.99 deal, without any additions. They seemed to give me attitude, as if it was my fault. If I worked there, I would know what the deal includes and explain it clearly to customers to avoid confusion.”
“Good service. Friendly staff. Good food. Highly recommend. The environment is excellent. My waitress Gabby was very professional taking care of my order and she prepared a delicious margarita drink . Excellent job Gabby.”
“We’ve been coming here for years and love this location! Great service and food! Yolanda is the BEST server and should train all future servers!”
“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”
“It's fine. It's a good bar. There's relaxing a decent number of people there. There's a jukebox. There are a handful of pretty cheap pool tables. There's a dance floor. Sometimes, there's karaoke. Sometimes, there's a DJ. The prices are reasonable. It doesn't smell bad. The bathrooms are pretty clean. There's plenty of parking. No creepy/unsafe corners anywhere, really. Food tastes how it should.
It's basically everything you're looking for in a bar in the corner of a plaza. Solid, solidly fine bar.”
“I've gotta say, out of all the sushi places I've been to, this one had the loudest music.
Besides that, I was pleased with the food and enjoyed my time here. I think if you were to come here during dinner service with a big group, you should be ready to wait.
I'd recommend it to a friend, but I don't know if I would frequent it as some of the other spots I have been to. This isn't a bad thing, and it certainly is a good spot with good food, but I think it's more of a dinner restaurant for big groups.
Check it out if you're in the area!”
“Absolutely loved everything about this restaurant. Me and a friend went for brunch and the food was amazing, the staff was very friendly and greeted us with a smile, definatley a great vibe. Cant wait to come back.”
“5 star to the whole team! I walked in place was slammed because a whole bus of ppl showed up walks all showed up 7pm rush The whole team remained focused and pushed thru making sure everyone got orders. Cashier Girl Jada was sweet still kept taking ordering sharing there will be a wait but will take my order. Other workers came in and support the rush alll a true team effort. Everyone had a good attitude despite some customers being inpatient they pushed thru and pushed all orders out. Very impressed how they handled because now a days ppl get into bad moods attitudes because they get overwhelmed. One person came to front make sure the trash was picked up after the big rush. Everyone cared. Big kudos to all the workers that worked 4/16/2026.”

The mint lemonade you can definitely taste the mint and freshness. I got the falafel platter which was so delicious and fresh. I definitely will be back!!

“First time at this location and we had an amazing experience! Our server Andrew was very attentive and accommodating. He asked if there were any allergies at the table and made sure to accommodate accordingly. The food was also amazing, I highly recommend the spicy chicken ramen! Overall we had an amazing time here thanks to our server Andrew. 🙌”
“My sister raves about this place so of course my expectations were slightly higher than normal. Now lets get to it!! The atmosphere was bright and cheerful, the employee that took our order was extremely patient, informative, and kind. We ordered one Simple chicken sandwich, a deluxe chicken sandwich, one order of fries (which seemed to be enough to feed a army🤯) and a house salad. The food is beautifully plated and served on a platter (I'm assuming because the portions are so large 😏😉). The staff was very attentive and checked in a couple of times to insure all was well / if we needed anything. Overall I enjoyed and will definitely be back.”
