    Great 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.

    Some 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!

    Breakfast! 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.

    The 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.

    Weekend brunch wait can be an hour, either get there before church is out or grab a coffee and people watch on this interesting corner.

    the 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

    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!!
