Sam SNovember 28, 2015Great breakfast and brunch food. Every egg dish is great and there's even great vegetarian food for those who don't eat meat. Get an omelette with some greens and you'll be fully satisfied.
Deb TJanuary 8, 2014Some of the best breakfast I had on my visit to ATL!!! Expect a wait though, no matter what day...but they turn over quickly. You won't go wrong with whatever you order! Breakfast Bowl is awesome!
Jaslin ThomasFebruary 18, 2016Hollywood and Clifton omelettes are definitely a must for people who do not wanna eat meat.My husband and I added oatmeal pancakes along with it. Truly one of the best pancakes I've ever eaten
ᴡ QuinnNovember 19, 2016Breakfast! This place is awesome. It was packed with a line outside, but I walked up and got a seat at the bar. The staff is incredible! Also, do the turkey hash. Do it.
Staff PicksJanuary 14, 2016The trending taste this week is a Southern favorite: grits. Creamy and cheese-filled, they've been described as "dreamy" and "the bomb dot com!" You do not want to miss them.- Aaron-Michael LeeFebruary 2, 2013This is the best place in Atlanta for breakfast/brunch! I had the turkey hash and it was nothin short of amazing! And the actual biscuit with the strawberry apple butter was divine!
Michael DiPalmaOctober 26, 2012Great food, lots of choices traditional Atl eatery great place to bring out of towners. Good prices also great place to check out the hot midtown gays!

Nicole Roberts-FoubareJune 26, 2017I had black bean cakes and blackened tilapia with grits....delicious....will be back to try other menu items!!
AdnaJuly 14, 2015The grits were amazing. Portions were not enormous, but enough to fill you up. Expect a long wait for Saturday brunch!
Dan FetznerJune 28, 2016Got the Flying Biscuit Special which was solid. Friendly staff, quick service, and reasonable prices. Great for a quick brunch.
Craig RNovember 25, 2014Weekend brunch wait can be an hour, either get there before church is out or grab a coffee and people watch on this interesting corner.
jose rJuly 28, 2011the cheese grits are delicious. The oatmeal pancake w/peach compote too. But the grits are why i come here. The coffee is not so good. If you want to sample a little of everythin get the high flyer. C
For the first time in nearly two decades, they have a new menu with new things on it and it looks very promising.
Always great food and service. The grits and biscuits are my favorite but really everything is good.
I think they sprinkle crack in their grits bc I'm ADDICTED! I also always ask for an extra to-go dish of apple butter. <whispers> I take it home to use on my bagels. SO GOOD!!
Herman RileyApril 22, 2013I recommend the high flyer! The grits and the biscuit are both amazing. Also, try the mango mimosa. Hell, try all the flavors. :-)
Adriana MAugust 1, 2016It was worth the wait. We got seated at the counter and had really good service. Food is great!

Debbie NicolettiJanuary 17, 2010The Meatloaf supper is awesome...way too much food for one meal...Turkey Meatloaf, pudge mashed potatoes, green beans, salad and a humongous home made bisquit the size of a poodle's head! Yum!!!
