| Summary: The SceneThis bare-bones, cafeteria-style restaurant draws a crowd of diverse in-towners with its economy dining. Counter service is fast and furious; dishes are prepared while you wait and handed over on plastic trays. Despite this joint's popularity, tables aren't hard to come by in the large space. Ambience is low-key and the furniture smacks of a college dorm.The FoodThe food is as straightforward as its delivery. Counter one offers fresh, semi-made-to-order pasta, including spinach tortellini and a bold-flavored pesto, served with vegetables and meats (try the perfectly steamed broccoli and Italian sausage). Counter two offers a smoky, well-seasoned jerk chicken, served with vegetables or black beans and rice. Choose from a selection of beers, including the pungent, alcohol-free Jamaican ginger beer, or a crisp, brewed iced tea. Finish with a rich, moist brownie. | ||

One of Atlanta's BEST kept secrets
This has been one of my favorite eateries for the past 12 years of my life… Great food, inexpensive, and convenient.
They have two lines: a chicken line and a pasta line. I recommend making a couple of visits so you can try both.
My favorites: Jerk chicken with rice, black beans, and collards. Spinach tortellini with marina sauce and brocolli.
The employees are very friendly and truly seem to enjoy being there… and how often can you go to an eatery where people of ALL backgrounds can dine under the same roof? I.e. during lunchtime, you might see a combination of white-collared office employees, college students, alternative hippies, and anything in between… all there because of the fabulous food.
Dishes I tried:
Homemade Buttermilk Belgium Waffle - Topped with Fresh Berries + Bananas
Half a jerk chicken. Get it with black beans, rice, and collard greens. It’s DELICIOUS!
Eggs Benedict with Spinach + Roasted Mushroom Medley topped with Hollandaise
Cheese-filled Spinach Tortellini with marina sauce and broccolli.. it’s a great vegetarian meal!
