A new restaurant recently opened in the Sweet Auburn district of Atlanta. Auburn Angel comes from restuarateur Asa Fain and Executive Chef Robbie Pacheco — and it’s going to be delicious.
The restaurant is housed in the space formerly occupied by the Auburn Avenue Rib Shack. The building’s structure has been carefully preserved and restored after sitting vacant since 2014.
Auburn Angel Opens In Sweet Auburn
The restaurant held a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday, April 19.
The 3,995 square-foot space seats 60 people and features a cozy dining room on the interior and a covered patio that seats 60 more.
“Since 2018, when I purchased this building, I’ve daydreamed, planned, and executed, with the help of many people, my vision for Auburn Angel,” said proprietor Asa Fain. “It’s hard to believe that vision has finally been realized, but we are so excited to finally welcome guests near and far to our new spot, which we hope will soon become theirs. The building is ready for its new chapter, and we are eager to carry on its legacy.”
What’s On the Menu at Auburn Angel?
Auburn Angel’s menu has been culled from the diverse cultures of Atlanta as well as the globe.
Example small plates include Skull Island Prawns & Firefly Squid featuring tempura fried, black radish, piquillo pepper aioli, and chili oil; Beetroot Tart featuring goat cheese mousse, beetroot powder; Raw Scallop with pickled watermelon rind, salmon roe and more.
“I’m eager to showcase to the community what will be a crossroads of my culinary journey,” said Chef Robbie. “Guests can expect an ever-evolving menu based on the best products available at the time. Bringing in fresh ingredients from local purveyors will enhance the experience, ensuring an epicurean adventure that evolves with the seasons.”

Believe or not, but relatively few people know about Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu. What do you know about it?
This article is going to show you some items on Chick-fil-A’s secret menu. If you’re familiar with Dwarf House, the original Chick-fil-A, the secret food menu is something you know all about.
Chick-fil-A is part and parcel made of red Georgia clay. This is indisputable ever since a small eatery called the Dwarf Grille opened right under Atlanta’s nose in tiny Hapeville, Georgia back in 1946. Since then millions have become loyal fans of the restaurant known for the bad-spelling cows singing how to “Eat More Chiken.”
What’s On Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?
How do you get to see Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu? You generally can’t be the drive-thru — these are dine-in options only. And you’ve got to ask (be nice) one of the workers. That’s how you’ll get to try some of these awesome secret recipes via Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu.
Spicy Chicken And Egg Biscuit
The Spicy Chicken and Egg Biscuit is something you’ll never see on the Chick-fil-A menu, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have it.
How To Order It: Just tell the cashier that you want to add egg to your Chicken Biscuit.
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is what you get when you ask for hot sauce on your Chicken Sandwich. The way they do it is just great.
The Double Decker Sandwich
The Double Decker Sandwich is one that very few Chick-fil-A servers can master. But for those that do, it’s a great treat.
Chicken Quesadilla
Chicken Quesadillas aren’t something you’d normally think would be served at Chick-fil-A, but this food item is so good that it should be added officially.
Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich
We all know that chicken is Chick-fil-A’s thing, so this Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich is a specialty that is right up their alley.
The Double Double Down
Special shoutout to the Instagram accounts @nocatsgotluv4me and @pass_the_salt and @hack_themenu for their endeavors in the world of secret menus. Check them all out for more food hacks.
How Do You Order From Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?
Chick-fil-A’s secret menu can be ordered by asking an employee for some of the options available. That means you can substitute turkey for chicken on the chicken sandwich. That means you can add hot sauce to your chicken tenders. You can also get an assortment of sauces applied to your Waffle Fries.
Final Word
If you’ve ever been to Chick-fil-A, you may know that those delicious chicken biscuits or waffle fries can be ordered a number of ways. One reason why is because Chick-fil-A has a secret menu.
There are so many good things to eat at Chick-fil-A. You can also try the restaurant’s Little Blue Menu.

Chai Peking Chinese Restaurant
2205 Lavista Rd, Atlanta, GA 30329 | (404) 327-7810
Here’s what one reviewer says about Chai Peking Chinese Restaurant: “My food, Hunan Beef, was good. Although it was not shockingly good, other than its price, it was good. I spent $16 something on a regular Hunan Beef.”China Breeze Underground
96 Upper Alabama St, Atlanta, GA 30303 | (470) 419-5119
Here is what one reviewer says about China Breeze Underground: “I love this little spot! It use to be where the waffle house was near the Underground. The Bourbon and Sweet and Spicy chicken is my favorite!!!!! Love the staff. The gentleman there is Super Kool.”Chin Chin 2
699 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30308 | (404) 881-1511
Here’s what one reviewer says about Chin Chin 2: “The menu and service were beyond our expectations. We really loved the environment of this place. Superb place to take the family out for dinner.”Doc Chey’s Noodle House
1424 North Highland Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, GA 30306 | (404) 888-0777

Here is what one reviewer says about Grand China: “I just ate here for the first time today and the food was delicious. I didn’t deserve it. I couldn’t get the food inside my mouth fast enough. The Green curry chicken dish was amazing. I would definitely recommend!”Gu’s Dumplings
99 Krog St NE, Atlanta, GA 30307 | (404) 527-6007
Here’s what one reviewer says about Gu’s Dumplings inside Krog Street Market. “My second time to Gu’s and I’m still impressed. I wish I had a bigger stomach to try it all. The dumplings are classic and delicious with flavors true to China spice. The crispy beef was slightly underwhelming. The portion size was too small for a shareable plate. Will be returning for the dumps ASAP!”Hans Express
2345 Cascade Rd SW, Atlanta, GA 30311 | (404) 755-2807
Here is what a reviewer says about Hans Express: “Han’s is a simple place situated in southwest Atlanta. The prices are incredibly reasonable and the servings are large. My wife and I can typically get two meals from from both the lunch and dinner sized portions. I’ve certainly had better Chinese food, but Han’s is very good and is one of my favorites in Atlanta. I’m not a big fan of the plain fried rice, but for $1.50 more you can upgrade to pork fried rice. In addition, the wings are small but are very much worth the low price.”
Fortune Cookie Restaurant
2480 Briarcliff Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30329 | (404) 636-8899
Here is what one reviewer says about Fortune Cookie Restaurant: “Kung Pao Chicken and Shrimp with Lobster Sauce tasted fresh and flavorful. Eggrolls tasted a little off to me but my dining partner thought they were fine. The staff was courteous and patient given the large number of people in line (they are only doing take out orders at this time). Located in a shopping plaza so parking was plentiful. Wait time was reasonable – great location so I will definitely go back.”
Malaya Restaurant
857 Collier Rd NW, Atlanta, GA 30318 | (404) 609-9991
Here’s what one reviewer says about Malaya Restaurant: “Chinese food… very delicious. Don’t fret if it’s busy, it is worth the wait. The staff was very helpful and observant. It has a great interior. Feels similar to a restaurant in New York I loved.”

Food critic Keith Lee stopped in Atlanta several months after his original Georgia good tour. While he was supposed to do a food tour proper, he switched things up unexpectedly by making an appearance in the city on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.
“There’s been a change of plans. Let’s talk about it. The next half of the food tour is not Atlanta,” he said. Explaining that he was going to be giving away free food, the Detroit-based food critic said there were some parties that pulled up with the intent to make a dollar and he wanted it made clear that they weren’t with him.
Will he come back to Atlanta for a food tour? We’ll see.
In late March, Lee announced on his Instagram that he and his family will be doing a “Redemption Tour,” for 2024, with Atlanta being the #1 spot on his list.
He stressed that there will be no do-overs, in other words, he won’t be returning to the same restaurants.
“This is a redemption tour: it’s not a good tour, meaning we’re not going to the same spots we went to last time,” he said. “This is a completely fresh slate.”
Things will be a little different though as the Lee family will have security with them this time, he said.
“We come in peace,” he said, a reference to the ruffled feathers that occurred last time he did a food jaunt through the city.
So where should Lee go? He mentioned that his focus this time will be mom-and-pop restaurants and food spots voted on by his followers, so here is a potential list.
What Atlanta Restaurants Should Keith Lee Visit?
K&K Soul Food
881 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy NW, Atlanta, GA 30318
The original Bankhead Restaurant has been cooking home-style meals for the southwest Atlanta community since the 1960s. Now called K&K Soul Food, the eatery, which has been owned for the same family for 40 years, continues to be a standout spot for cafeteria-style soul food. Today the restaurant is run by Kimario Smith, who took over for his mother and grandmother. With its famed Pork Chop plate and Steak plate both priced at $6.99, K&K Soul Food is one of the cheapest — and best — square meals you can find in Atlanta.
One K & K Soul Food reviewer on Facebook said this: “Good SoulFood. Taste like somebody’s Auntie definitely in the kitchen.”
Buttermilk Biscuits
1634 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30337
Tucked inside quaint shopping center Virginia Station off in College Park, Buttermilk Biscuits packs a big breakfast punch. Here’s what one reviewer says about Buttermilk Biscuits.
“The Belgian waffles were melt-in-your-mouth wonderful. Fried chicken breast was seasoned and cooked to crisp and juicy perfection, and the grits… I am a grits snob. There are literally only 3 or 4 restaurants in Atlanta that I refer others to when asked.”
Aviva by Kameel Coming To Buckhead
Aviva by Kameel is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Atlanta and expanding to Buckhead.
The menu consists of hormone-free, butter-free food items, along with halal meat and classic salads and vegetables that have been locally sourced.
Kelz Kitchen
Atlanta Locations:
- 156 Forsyth St SW, Atlanta, GA 30303 | (404) 330-8004
- 5015 Old National Hwy A, Atlanta, GA 30349 | (404) 500-2034
If you’re in the mood for some Coastal Carolina goodness, Kelz Kitchen is the place to check out. The eatery has two Atlanta locations.
Here’s what one reviewer says of Kelz Kitchen: “Omg when I tell you the lollipop lamb chops were cooked to perfection and the Salmon was grilled so well. The broccoli was fresh and the corn on the cob was sweet. I also enjoyed the pound cake with a Lemonade. I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Food is cooked to orders I recommend ordering online. They only accept debit cards just a heads up.”
Ms. Icey’s Kitchen & Bar
1371 Clairmont Rd, Decatur, GA 30033
The newest soul food spot in Decatur comes from owner and restaurateur Sim Walker, whose New York City rearing comes through in the vibe. Ms. Icey’s, named after Walker’s grandmother, is Decatur’s best-kept secret even though it has quickly become a culturally hip gathering place for those in the know. When cornbread comes in an iron skillet, and oxtails do as well, you know you’re in a foodie’s dream. Not only are many of the dishes a nod to Southern and soul food culture, but the drinks are mostly handcrafted, giving the place an organic life. The sweet potato waffles are to d

Peace up, A-Town Down. Atlanta recording artist Usher plans to open up to nine Dave’s Hot Chicken restaurants in the metro Atlanta area, AtlantaFi.com has learned.
In a press release on March 27th, the multi-Grammy winner announced his investment in a franchise group led by Lawrence Kourie and Andrew Feghali to introduce the popular hot chicken joints to the region.
“I’ve tried a lot of hot chicken, but Dave’s Hot Chicken is truly amazing. I’m thrilled to be a part of the brand and bring their delicious tenders and sliders to the people of Atlanta,” Usher shared in a statement.
With its roots in California, Dave’s Hot Chicken has a global presence with approximately 200 restaurants worldwide and more than 700 in development. Usher joins a list of celebrities, including Drake, Maria Striver, and Samuel L. Jackson, who have also invested in the brand.
Although the company has not disclosed the specific locations of the new restaurants, Atlanta fans can look forward to enjoying Dave’s Hot Chicken soon.
Atlanta is having a restaurant renaissance. Hot chicken is the rage in Atlanta’s dining scene right now. But so are chicken and waffles.
Fast-casual is also the dining trend du jour around metro Atlanta restaurants. The concept involves mixing the quick accessibility of fast food with the casual dining experience. Food in Atlanta is also adapting to the various tastes of the migrants that come here to live.

One of the best places to eat in College Park (technically Atlanta) is Buttermilk Biscuit, which opened a few months ago. I had originally tried it on its second day of operation, and there were only a few customers inside.
When I came back a month later, the place was pretty much packed. Its hours run from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., so you’d better get there early if you want a good seat.
How To Find Buttermilk Biscuit
Buttermilk Biscuit is located at 634 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30337. Here’s a map to help you find it.
What I Ordered
Ok, so I’ve gone there several times. The first two times I ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Grits, which come with creamy grits, jumbo shrimp, sautéed spinach, peppers and onions, cherry tomatoes, award winning Cajun cream sauce.
After that, I ordered my go-to: The Early Bird, which is four crispy chicken wings, served with our famous waffles, powdered sugar, and maple butter.
You also have the choice of different butters for a 50 cent upcharge: Blueberry Butter, Strawberry Butter, Maple Butter and Peach Butter.
The waffles, which have just the right crunchiness on the ends, but are soft in the middle, come sprinkled with confection sugar, which I love. The chicken wings are sizeable and are seasoned in the Southern tradition. The meal may look like small to some, but you’ll be full when you finish. At least, I was.
The customer service was still trying to settle down after opening recently, but the to-go orders are fast and accurate. You have to order on the Toast app to get your food, which is an efficient process.
Overall, Buttermilk Biscuit Gets an A
An A Grade, means it’s worth your while and I would say Buttermilk Biscuit makes the grade with ease.
Final Word
Atlanta is having a restaurant renaissance. Hot chicken is the rage in Atlanta’s dining scene right now. But so are chicken and waffles.
