A1 Soulfood

Convenient location with easy access by MARTA and plenty of parking if you decide to drive. The food is premade so you can walk up to the hot bar and select your entree and sides. They have a broad range of options with some rotating daily. I ordered the pork chop meal (which came with two) candied yams and broccoli. The pork chops tasted great, but were as tough as leather. Grab a knife and proceed, because it's worth it. The sides were cooked perfectly and were well seasoned. The mini cornbread loaf was the perfect compliment to the meal. The lines can be long on Sundays, so come prepared to wait. The wait was an hour on my visit. The ladies working behind the counter were super pleasant and had patience while I figured out what I wanted. There is plenty of seating should you decide to dine in. There wasn't any table service, which in my opinion was not a bad thing.

This spot was super busy on a Sunday. I waited for an hour in the line and I can honestly say they kept the food coming! Now, I didn’t get to try the turkey wings like I intended (out), but I wasn’t really impressed with the other food I ordered. Baked chicken was super overcooked and mushy and not seasoned at all. The neck bones were baked and a bit dry, I prefer my too be wet. Customer service was friendly at least, I know they work hard back there which is why I only took one star!

Today I wanted soul food, went to one spot my spirit said no. I googled soul food again and A1 Soul Food came up and the reviews had me curious. Got to the restaurant asked a lady in the parking lot about the food OMG I didn't know what to get at first but these are the pictures from my husband and my plate with sides. You have to get the peach cobbler to top it off. Whew I'm already forwarding your information to my family in Georgia and I will drive 2 hours for another meal. Couldn't stay in and eat had to go back to the hotel so we could get situated. Hats off to whoever made the peach cobbler, it brought back memories of my grandmother's homemade cobbler.

Rating: 5/5 Customer Service: 3/5 Food: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Price 5/5 I ordered the beef stew with rice, all of there meals comes with two sides and cornbread. The sides were really good 😊 the rice and gravy was okay It just wasn’t seasoned enough for me. The cornbread was really good. Be mindful this place do be really crowded so be patient. Overall I would recommend and I would come back

I drove all the way from Lithonia to experience this restaurant me and my friends. When we arrive the restaurant was clean and it had a little line but the line moves very fast. When we got up to the window to order our food the woman that was fixing the food was very friendly and patient once we explain this was our first time eating there. My friend asked her with the meal you get rice and two side. She asked can she substitute one of her sides for peach cobbler? Or is that just considered a dessert. The woman stated peach cobbler can be a side so we proceed to make our plates. Once we got to the cash register the lady at the cash register said no you cannot have peach cobbler as a side it is a desert. My friend begin to explain to her that she asked the worker before she proceeded with her order so can she have it as a side? She stated no and proceeded to say if you don’t want the food I can go to the next customer she remove the food off the counter and proceeded to the next customer. I was just amazed at the rudness And poor customer service that we were receiving at the register. I proceeded to pay for my food and also my friends food so that we can experience the food because that’s what we came for. The food was great it was season well but if theyDo not work on their customer service they will lose a lot of customers. That is why they have a two star instead of a four star
