No line on a rainy Sunday night. I personally would not have waited. The pastries were good glad I got to try them...I enjoyed it. But if had waited in the lines I saw I would have been disappointed.

I will preface this review by saying that this is not my particularly favorite type of cuisine, but ate here as a business lunch with my manager at our team. There were only two items on the menu that I liked. The burger was really incredible and the share dish of chicken wings had just the right amount of spice so as to not to make it too hot. I will say that the other six people thoroughly enjoyed their meals and no one left really disappointed. If you enjoy this type of good, then this really is the place for you and I'm certain you'll enjoy the experience.

So last weekend I took the parents--in town from good ole North Carolina--to Milk and Honey for brunch on Sunday. I had been once before and had a pretty good experience overall: no wait, good staff, tasty food, decent prices. All of the key components for a nice brunch. We arrived around 1030a and it was pretty dead, just one or two tables of newspaper-reading coffee drinker types. We sat outside on the covered patio since it was a gorgeous breezy morning and not too hot yet. Service: Our waitress came right away with the menus but took forever to do every other thing the whole time we were there. Menu: All the delicious regular brunch fare....with many options for french toast, from butterscotch to raspberry jelly-filled; eggs any way you like them, homestyle potatoes, omelets with lots of ingredient options; and a yummy-sounding yogurt parfait thing that I am definitely trying next time. What we got: I got eggs over-easy that came with homestyle potatoes and a fluffy biscuit with a honey glaze on top (being a true Southerner, I am very discerning when it comes to biscuits). All delicious, especially the potatoes, which are cut in chunky pieces and cooked with herbs and onions and and make for a savory side dish. My dad and boyfriend both got omelets which each came with the potatoes and toast, I think, and my mom got the raspberry jelly filled french toast. They all seemed pretty happy except that Mom had to send back her original french toast because they put strawberries on top and she's allergic. Bad stuff: Our waitress was not really knowledgeable about anything; like when my dad and boyfriend ordered a side of potatoes to split, she should have said that their omelets came with them already (it did not say that on the menu, and the french toast doesn't have sides listed, and doesn't come with any), instead of letting us order extra. And again, she took forever to do everything. There was another table who came in after us who had a different waitress, and got everything (drinks, food, bill) at least 10 minutes before we did. The manager did come out to check on us after Mom sent back the french toast, but it seemed like our waitress had told on us or something because the manager seemed worried about us being unhappy. Also, we didn't get the Fruit Loops/Corn Pops munchie bowl this time like we did when I went before. Good stuff: The food is delicious. That's a big selling point obviously, and definitely overshadows the bad service thing. Prices are not bad, I would say two people could have brunch for $30 or so including tip. Not too crowded, although it was filling up when we were leaving a little before noon. I think people just don't know about it since it's kind of in a random location, although not too far down past Figo. All in all, I really like it and I'd go back again for round three.

I don't have a bad thing to say about this place. My hubs and I ended up here with our kiddos on Mother's Day. We had been walking SoCo and ducked in here for a quick bite of late lunch and a beer. It was busy, but we had no problem finding a place to sit. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. She was very knowledgeable on beer and was able to surprise us with some good local flavors. Our food was wonderful. I love avocado so it was only natural that I had the chicken fried avocado and it was delicious. I don't think I would even try anything else on the menu after having that. My hubby had a fish sandwich and said it was good. Two of my kids had bacon cheeseburgers and said they were really good; not the best they've had, but good. My other kiddo had the Lone Star chicken sandwich and said it was the best chicken sandwich he's ever had. The bathrooms were clean and that's a big deal to me. From what my hubby told me, maybe the men's restroom was not the most suitable for young boys. We're pretty open with our kids though so it didn't bother our family. Overall this place was a great experience. I would go back without hesitation either with my family, a group of friends or just a date out with my fella. The atmosphere is fun, the food is yummy and the prices are very reasonable.

Yes, this is an airport restaurant. And yes, this is a 5 star review. Why? Because every time I am here (which is almost every time that I fly through ATL) I enjoy the calm atmosphere, attentive service, good food and very good coffee. I am almost always here at breakfast time, and I much prefer a nice place to sit than a quick meal from a food court walk-through. The only negative about Care Intermezzo is when you check in at the host stand: you almost always find the person working there staring down at their phone. If so, clear your throat, get their attention, and asked to be seated inside (as opposed to the "outside" tables on your right). Inside you will find tables close together, but in an environment that is fairly inviting for an airport. From the glass windows overlooking the runway, to the books along one wall and TV screens on the other, you feel like you've left the hustle of the airport. The menu covers all the bases, but I always find myself drawn to the omelettes (usually the Americana). Tasty, good sized, using fresh ingredients. And both the potatoes and fruit side choices are good (but I usually avoid the toast as it comes out limp and under-toasted). And you will be happy if you are a coffee drinker: the coffee is strong and hot and served in your own pitcher (which has between 3-4 cups). All in all, one of my favorite breakfast stops when traveling. I have also had a burger here in the evening and it, too, was quite good. So if time permits, give them a try.

Ended up here after initially failing to locate Killjoy for a few drinks and some food. Fried squid Appy: tasty, but it felt more like they took a great squid Appy and then minced a few too many cloves of garlic overtop of it all. Served with chopsticks on the side, not sure what that was all about. Fiancée had the meatloaf main: fantastic. Hashbrown-style potatoes on the side, topped with a poached egg which she loved. Vegetarian porcini pasta: felt like it was missing something. Not sure exactly, but it may have been... Meat. Then again, I'm no vegetarian. Maybe it's something to get used to. Decent atmosphere. Lots of TV screens, which I guess is a good thing.
