    One reviewer says: “The staff in this store was fantastic. After TWO terrible issues with the other locations on Virginia, it was refreshing to go into a Waffle House where the staff actually cared.

    The two ladies serving and the guy cooking were very polite and professional.

    This is the ONLY location on Virginia Ave. that I will ever go to again.”

    One Google reviewer says: “This location was recently torn down and rebuilt so everything is shiny new, including the attitudes. Expanded parking, great service, clean and new with all the standard WH favs… what’s not to love?”

    Atlanta Waffle House:  860 Glenwood Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30316

    One reviewer says: “Very friendly staff and great cooks. Its a newly built waffle house, so it’s seem to cleaner than most. As most Waffle House locations, it can get pretty rachet after 1:30am …when clubs and bars close, they’re extremely busy.”

    Atlanta Waffle House review:  4346 Fulton Industrial Blvd SW, Atlanta, GA 30336

    One reviewer says: “The place was very clean but the waitress messed up or orders and wanted to argue with us about it. The cook came over to apologize for the confusion . He made the experience worth the trip. All in all not the worst but with out that cook I would not venture out to it again. Knowing he works there I might give it another shot some other day. Politeness and accountability go a long way in my book.”

    Atlanta Waffle House: 66 5th St NW, Atlanta, GA 30308

    One reviewer says: “This waffle House serves the waffles which are TO DIE FOR. I went here after my birthday dinner with my friends and their waffles were ALL ANYONE COULD TALK ABOUT! From the variety of DELICIOUS flavors to server’s attentiveness and lovable personalities , there’s no reason not to visit this place for your next event!”

    On TripAdvisor reviewer said this: “I’ve heard of and seen numerous Waffle House’s while travelling. It seems to be primarily a Southeastern US chain; there are none in California. I suppose it is similar to the Denny’s or IHOP brands in California, although this Waffle House I visited was smaller and skankier than any Denny’s or IHOP’s I’ve been to. Still, if famed Southern chef Sean Brock takes Anthony Bourdain to Waffle House on the latter’s eponymous TV show, I figure it’s worth a try.

    “There were 2 Waffle Houses within walking distance to my downtown hotel. This was the closer one. It’s gritty. There are a few tables and booths, plus 2 small counters (one high, one low) facing the open kitchen. All surfaces are hard and hopefully disinfectable. While I was there, the cement-floored kitchen was literally being hosed down with a garden hose (there is a floor drain). The restrooms, which I did not use, seem to be frequented by folks who aren’t eating here and perhaps don’t have a place to call home. If Atlanta had health inspection letter grades posted on restaurant windows (as is customary and required in Los Angeles), this Waffle House grade surely would NOT be an “A”. I opted to order my food to go.”

    One TripAdvisor reviewer says: “I used to travel to Georgia a lot to visit a friend and that is where I was introduced to Waffle House, that staple of the south. My friend indoctrinated me to Waffle House early on. As a New Yorker, its like walking on to an alien space ship…. Hard to imagine eating there. But eat I have. Many times. Other than the harsh lighting, cockroaches on the counter, greasy incredibly-unhealthy food, and the local “atmosphere”…. it’s a cheap meal. That’s the best I can say and I will leave it at that. — So cheap that when we once left a $5 tip, the waitress ran out to the parking lot to thank us as we were leaving. I guess she never got a $5 tip before?

    I’ve brought other New Yorkers in to Waffle Houses in other places and they refused to eat in there. Clearly, expansion in to New York will not be happening any time soon.”

    The food was good and reasonably priced. The pecan waffles were amazing!!!! The service was just ok, we had to ask for drinks and refills several times.

    It’s only about a block from the Georgia Aquarium / World of Coca-Cola.

    Note: Do NOT try to order pancakes at a Waffle House. They do NOT appreciate it. 🙂 I would go there again.”

    Final Word

    There are few places as well known and prominent in Atlanta than Waffle House. As Waffle House reviews go, you won’t find any extravagant praises or over-the-top commendations, after all, it’s Waffle House.

    But what you will find is food made with heart. And that’s what many people desperately desire today. The yellow-trimmed eatery worked its way to popularity by first serving customers in a greasy house-setup in Avondale Estates in Decatur’s shadow.

    Now it is one of the greatest American breakfast institutions ever created. And as much as we think we know and appreciate the place, there are tons of insights we can learn about the House from other people.

The person next to me returned from just days ago visit to again have the shrimp and grits (he said, spicy -full of flavor”). What I had was “ok”, not great. Just had a crab cake (small, not fantastic) and a dessert (not convinced it was made there). Won’t dismiss trying again, just try something else.”

    One reviewer said this: “I seldom leave reviews. But this place deserves one! I was super skeptical about eating here, but I wanted gator bites so we decided to go with it. Honestly, really glad I did. The gator bites were cooked perfectly, but they’re tossed in some kinda sweet/spicy tangy sauce. It was good, but honestly could’ve skipped out on that, just personal preference. My finance ordered the bourbon salmon BLT which was absolutely divine & perfectly cooked!

    “My black & bleu burger (asked for medium rare) on the other hand was extremely undercooked, literally raw, seems like only the outside was seared. But I showed my waitress who was extremely kind, & she was very apologetic & had the cook whip me up a new one to go, since I was already full. Overall, the experience was amazing, They deserve 5-stars! The burger was a mistake, & it was corrected. No need to deduct or let it effect the rating. We’re all human, we make mistakes! If you’re thinking about eating here, don’t be skeptical, go for it because you won’t be disappointed. We left happy & full, will definitely be returning!”

    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

    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.
