The waitress was a hoot – very friendly with a great sense of humor. The food was terrific. The ribs were the best I’ve ever eaten. It did take some time to get our food but it was worth the wait. If you are into excellent local food and atmosphere – this is the place while you are in Atlanta. If you expect a high class dining experience – go somewhere else.”
Das BBQ

Das BBQ has popped up in Grant Park across Memorial Drive from Oakland Cemetery. The eatery’s first location is on Collier Road in Midtown. If you want some good barbeque, check out Das BBQ.
Here’s what one reviewer says about Das BBQ: “Good BBQ, brisket is juicy. Pork ribs are fall of the bone tender, you can even eat (some) of the bones if you like. Chicken is chopped not pulled and only slightly above average. Sides are okay, but overpriced. My favorite is the creamed corn (more like cheesed corn). They generally are very quick, sides are portioned out before hand and usually you get your food within minutes.
“I believe this is the most expensive BBQ in the city (beating out previous champion Lake and Oak BBQ), mainly due to it’s a la carte menu. Rack of pork ribs and two sides is roughly $42 dollars before tip. That’s $10 dollars more expensive than a comparable meal from Fox Bros.”

And yes I’ve received the wrong order,, but the waitress immediately corrected my order. My favorite is their Red Velet Chicken & Waffles…I suggest that you try the Fried Catfish! The service is great, but can’t expect the wait staff to be at your beckoning call in a crowded restaurant! The atmosphere is exactly what you’d expect at a restaurant lounge! Remember you get what you give…I get great service because I respect what the wait staff have to do & I tip well for good service! Read the reviews, but decide for yourself!”Chicken+Beer

Our favorite was sweet water brewery. We loved the chicken and waffles meal and we love just the fried chicken. Everything tasted moist and delicious and the service was impeccable. Our waiter really showed a sense of Southern pride when we were ordering and made sure to ask us where we were traveling to.”

Here’s what one reviewer says about Hattie B’s Hot Chicken. “Oh so yummies! I could have just had the waffles and been palatably pleased. I also had the chicken sandwich. Listed as “hot” chicken sandwich, I requested “mild”. Had I not had the forethought, there is no way that I would have been able to eat the sandwich, as I even had to drink the chicken pieces into the blue cheese to eat it. Heat is an understatement. The coleslaw, which comes on the chicken sandwich was a bit too vinegary for my taste but wasn’t completely off putting. I would get the sandwich again, as well as recommend it to others. Just get an extra lemonade to wash it down. Drink sizes are on the smaller scale.

I ordered their chicken sandwich which was AMAZING!!!! My cousin ordered the chicken and waffles. Can, we just take a moment to talk about how good the waffle was?!?!? Their waffle was so yummy with a nice chew that it put all other waffles to shame! I highly recommend trying this place, even if you don’t live near the city it’s worth the drive! I demolished the sandwich without getting the chance to take a pic. But I screen shot my cousins video of his food.”

End of an era. The Chick-fil-A inside Greenbriar Mall is shutting its doors for good. The restaurant has set its last day for Saturday, May 202, 2023.
After that, to get a great chicken sandwich in Atlanta, you’re going to have to go elsewhere. The Greenbriar location is tied to Atlanta history as well as that of the famous eatery.
Chick-fil-A’s History In Atlanta
Chick-fil-A burst on the scene when S. Truett Cathy, a scrappy entrepreneur with an affinity for chicken breast, opened a small eatery in 1967 in Greenbriar Mall. The restaurant drew steady crowds for its boneless chicken breast served on a toasted, buttery bun with two pickle chips.
A few miles away, Truett’s brother, Ben, opened an Atlanta diner known as The Dwarf Grill (later renamed The Dwarf House) in Hapeville, Georgia, just outside Atlanta.
Since those early years, Chick-fil-A has grown into one of the best fast-food restaurants in America. It has always maintained its Greenbriar outpost, but that is no longer the case.
A Twitter user shared a sign posted outside the restaurant in Greenbriar in southwest Atlanta.
Greenbriar Mall Chick-Fil-A is DEFINITELY closing.
The mall will basically be a Rainbow, sneakers and jewelry stores. Basically an indoor flea market.
