Tucked inside quaint shopping center Virginia Station off in College Park, Buttermilk Biscuit packs a big breakfast punch. Here’s what one reviewer says about Buttermilk Biscuit.
“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.”
