Food Places I tried in Atlanta

Spanky's Chicken & Seafood Lounge This restaurant was okay. I was craving greens and this was close. I honestly will not go back. They give you a GENEROUS portion of food. The greens were decent, but they didn’t give that DOWN SOUTH southern flavor. The Mac and Cheese was not it. It gave Kraft with added seasoning (maybe chicken bouillon and garlic powder). Also we carried out and they charged a 15% gratuity plus a $4 card fee. 😑

Hungry AF: I loved this place and will go back to try other items on the menu. My boyfriend got the steak Philly and I got the chicken (the steak was better). The wings were so GOOOD. The flavor was spot on! I forgot what flavor but I think it was hot honey. Most definitely a must try ! 😋

teriyaki grill: This was a pregnancy craving stop, and I have been back twice. I’ll most likely be back again. This was so flavorful and hot ! The chicken was cooked perfectly. I’d recommend asking for extra sauce. I was full af and I only paid $12 👍🏾

Memeez: this was a hood spot. If you scared don’t go! But if you want some good, cheap breakfast then this is the spot. I loved this steak and cheese omelette. Them grits was good, I prefer mine much more creamier but nonetheless I still ate the whole plate. And did I mention they were cheap??

Any must try food spots in ATLANTA??
