It’s a Atlanta Rib Shack that serves the biggest BeefRibs you ever seen. The characters are friendly with that Southern Hospitality. I couldn’t eat it all…..Just the way it should be.

We went at the suggestion of a coworker. The employee at the front was fixing plates when we walked in; and even though we stood at the register for several minutes, he didn’t acknowledge us. We finally were able to place our orders (1) bbq glazed salmon with green beans and lima beans and (2) brisket (in bbq sauce) with macaroni and greens.

The food is absolutely fantastic here!! There are major staffing issues, major help needed. The man behind the counter has potential to be nice Howe I feel he is so overwhelmed that’s its virtually impossible! Can’t deny the taste of his food though

Very good food but please focus on customer service. Kindness and consistency with all locations goes a long way. Did not appreciate going to two different locations and the portion size was extremely different. When asked why received an attitude from the staff. People travel far and wide to come to your locations and receiving bad attitudes leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

This location has gone way downhill over the years. The lady at the counter was very nice. Great portions of food. However, the food was not good at all. Who is cooking this stuff?? It was soooo bland! I mean nothing was seasoned. The cornbread and the dressing was flavored with nothing but sugar! How do you make dressing with only sugar? No onions, no celery, nothing that real dressing has in it. The porkchops were thin and bland. The broccoli rice casserole I couldn’t even taste the cheese! It was like they used the mild cheap cheese. Sorry to say I won’t be back again. They need new management, new cooks, and they need to be corporate owned or something.

This location doesn’t live up to the franchise standard. All of the food was greasy—the rib tips, the rice, and the cabbage. The banana pudding was underwhelming. The bananas were old & brown and there was hardly any of the marshmallow topping on it. The cup of baked beans looked more like a cup of chili and was also greasy. I’m not sure who the cook is at this location but y’all should consider replacing them. For whatever reason, the cook has confused soul food with greasy, fast food with no flavor. The only good things were the cornbread and the drink. I’d rather drive an hour to the Camp Creek location.

We decided to go on our lunch break, we stood in line for a solid hour. No help. You have at least four people in the back and only one up front taking orders, making plates, etc. The cashier was no help. I understand he was overwhelmed but his focus was mobile orders and other orders. He’s fixing plates with no gloves on. You got flies all over the food. At least a good 25 minutes per customer on his end, extremely slow. Not one acknowledgment to the customers who were in line. Flies all over the food. Nothing was fresh. We just left. Don’t waste your time or money here. Poorly maintained.

Smyrna location! Food was awesome! Fresh and delicious! When you don’t have to add anything to the food you know it’s good. Don’t need no added salt or anything!!!

My daughter visited yesterday to get our Friday dinner, she purchased 3 fish meals, when she requested hot sauce, she was told she could only have 2, and that 2 was plenty…(she just went ahead an purchased extra) ….But…now if she purchased 3 meals how was 2 hot sauces plenty? Please make it make sense. This little stingy customer service could stop me from visiting again. This took nothing away from the taste of the food, which is alway great. But let’s show some customer service goals to keep customers please and thank you Sir.
