Dolores LoudermilkJuly 20, 2017I have been coming here for 10 years (since before it moved) and it has been very inconsistent. Sometimes the service is painfully slow, sometimes food is cold when served.
Jackson ReevesSeptember 12, 2011Go for the eggs bene. They may taste a tad bland, but they're so healthy (and the new space is so posh) that you should overlook the minimalist use of spices.
Carlos CousinOctober 31, 2012The PB&J (pimento cheese, bacon & tomato jam) burger is the best thing that you will ever put into your mouth.
Bregeen CampbellOctober 16, 2013Can't beat the fried egg sandwich!! It's to die for. However the servers always seem to be a bit uppity.
The fried green tomato wrap was A1.. And the eggs were so fluffy and delicious
T-Dawg JankinsMarch 24, 2012Try the Peachtree Plate - Pimento cheese grits, bacon, fried green tomatoes, scrambled eggs w/ cheese, and a biscuit
Even, though it can get really busy, staff is friendly and the food never disappoint
- Chicken pot pie, fried egg sandwich, milkshakes, chai latte..everything i've had is AMAZING!! love this place!
Steve LucasMarch 12, 2012Stay away from the no-flavor, curried chicken salad. Opt for something with pimento. House coffee and boozy milkshakes are prime. Fab ambiance, fair service.
Jon B.April 8, 2023Fun breakfast join near Tech with great eats and solid coffee. Get there early before the rush.
Kalena MicheleApril 29, 2010Not sure if it's still on the menu, but they have this weekly ice cream with small bits of caramelized sugar bacon in it. Sounds crazy and indulgent, but...still sounds tempting. Check it out.
Robert PhillipsFebruary 28, 2013Banana Nutella cake is fantastic. Local Batdorf coffee is too! PBJ burger... also wonderful
This is my favorite breakfast spot in Georgia! Reminds me of growing up in Los Angeles. 😊
DejaJuly 8, 2012Oh my god, WestEgg is beyond delicious! They have amazing speciality drinks. Ah, I love it.
The pimento Mac and cheese is out of this world amazing. Get it.
Lauren SchulteMay 8, 2012I came all the way from San Francisco for the black bean cakes and buttered biscuits. They do not disappoint!!!
Matthew BradfordDecember 4, 2010We had a little bit of everything, and it was all good. I didn't have any problems with service, I plan on making this place my regular eatery.
Katie AshleyMarch 13, 2012Black bean cakes and eggs are so delicious! I will definitely be back for more!
Sean HamiltonJuly 21, 2013Pimento Cheese Grits are quite tasty. Even if you aren't a "grits" fan, attempt it.
Try the Caramel Cake To-Go - My fave caramel cake in town!
Lae WNovember 22, 2010GREAT food, better prices! Fried green tomato wrap is divine and the balsamic dressing on the green salad is delish!
Honesto GregoryMay 21, 2012Great menu! Simple, yet scrumptious. Waitresses with smiles AND tasty water!! :)
Chandresh LadvaMarch 1, 2015Boozy shakes, go for the bourbon and chocolate while waiting for a table
Fried egg sandwich is still the best thing I've had here. They are liberal with the champagne on the mimosas.
Megan CMarch 17, 2013You're always going to wait for a table at brunch, but we're going on 1 1/2 hours here and they've literally seated 12+ tables in front of us. Ridiculous. Hostess says she "doesn't know the floor".
Best eggs benedict and grits in Atlanta + their lattes are amazing
The Fried Egg Sandwich is always a winner. Georgia Benedict's use of a biscuit for a base can be a bit, er, dense. Still prefer the standard English Muffin for Eggs Benedict myself. Read more
Peter SoderSeptember 20, 2015Might have good food but the wait is always absurd even if they have open seats.
They don't take reservations or call ahead, and they don't seat until the entire party is there. So be prepared to wait. And wait.
Christina KleehammerMarch 31, 2012Great vegetarian options. Love the tofu scramble. Breakfast anytime of day!
Meatloaf and Mac is amazing for dinner. Switch out side for sweet potato hash.
Archibaldo VeintitresJune 26, 2011Big fan! The egg sandwich is amazing and I love the garlic grits. Sadly, the service is usually poor.- Make sure to try their black bean cakes and fried green tomatoes! Take home some of the Coca-Cola cupcakes, too!
365Atlanta.comJanuary 25, 2011Try the Black Bean Cakes with eggs & grits - spicy goodness, perfect for breakfast or anytime!- Get the Georgia Benedict, it is a great take on biscuit and gravy :)
Blue Plate Special is super special. Add some fried green tomatoes to take it over the top awesome.

"Pan Seared Trout, boniato mash, sautéed bok choy,and tangerine slices drizzled with sweet yet tangy sauce. So good, I did not use the white thick sweet cream sauce. Amazingly paired for perfection."

"Caprese omelet is fantastic (try it with egg whites!). Potatoes a great side. Friend loved the blueberry crumble pancakes. Biscuit was overdone (hard on the bottom and too greasy). Great service!"

"Atlantic station is overall great place to shop and dine, the best place for lunch is Chick-a-biddy - great organic chicken and healthy salads and sandwiches, other than that not much to choose from"
