Peachtree Buffet - March 8th, 2008

Restaurant - Peachtree Buffet
Website- http://www.peachtreerestaurant.com/default.html


Review:






Atmosphere:
I don't know what I had imagined it to be like, but it was definitely nicer than I thought it would be.

Way more white people were there than any other time I've been there. I haven't decided if that's good or bad yet.

Service:
GREAT! I like waiters that have the balls to make fun of me. Not in a mean way though. Just commenting on how we were drinking diet pop and eating a soul food buffet.

Yeah, he was pretty awesome. I wish he could be my server in every restaurant. Except Po's.

Food:
Best country dinner I've had ever that was not made by my mom. Maybe even better than hers, to close to call.

Your mom makes soul food? I would have to say everything I had was delicious. The BBQ sauce was fantastic and I've never had non-fried okra before (which I'm now in love with) Just typing this makes me want to go back there.

APPROVED!:
CORNBREAD!!! It should be a staple of every meal. Peach cobbler was also awesome.


Declaring that if I was a cartoon, I would sleep in a cornbread bed.


Not approved:
Signing the credit card before we ate so I forgot about putting in the tip and had to pay the tip in quarters. Sorry dude. Also gaining 2 pounds from one lunch.

That I can't eat every meal there.



Intend to return?:
Once a week?


Can we turn this blog into a weekly review of Peachtree? Also, we need to try the sit down restaurant sometime.

Atmosphere:

if I had known it was going to be so fancy I would have done my hair.


Fancy Schmancy



Service:

WTF? was anything right? but they were all super nice.


First off, I would like to say that I've been there 2 other times and not had any problems. But LAST night, WHEW! I had won a free happy hour and they apparently didn't know that I had it scheduled for that night and they also had 2 large groups of people coming in (like groups that had reserved half of the restaurant) We were moved to 3 different tables. Twice we were brought food that we didn't order (CLOSE to what we ordered, but not what we ordered) and the waiter didn't seem to know what to charge us for and what not to. Also, what was listed as the soup of the day (asparagus cream) was in fact clam chowder (YUCK!) Somehow magically the bills were all correct though. And the manager (?) was very apologetic and gave us an additional free pizza.

Food:
I regretted my choice of pizza after I tried someone else's choice. theirs was damn good.



Their pizza is really REALLY good. and I like the gnocchi and chocolate mousse I had there last time.

APPROVED!:
Lontee winning the free stuff! And the getting more free stuff cause the reservations were messed up.

Good Food. Entertaining, but not intentionally. Just because of all the stuff that happened.

Not approved:
the service. I mean seriously, did any of the 5 different people who served us have a clue about what was going on?

I really wanted that asparagus cream soup!



Intend to return?:
despite or maybe because of (it was so bad it was comical) the service, I would.


Delicious Pizza, so YES!

Review:






Atmosphere:
modern. cool. I like the whole style down to the water container.


Awesome! I decided that I want to live somewhere that looks like Pizza Bella. Except without so much grey.



Service:
great! right on top of everything(but not on top of us) very friendly.


Good. Although with 2 servers and 3 tables of people, you hope the service would be pretty good.



Food:
assome! not your traditional pizza place, THANK GOD! oh and that cauliflower dish is delicous.

Frabulous. Although I agree with reviews from friends saying it is a "girly" pizza. You are hungry again not too long after you eat. Maybe I should have taken a note from HUBAR! and eaten the whole thing.

APPROVED!:
everything.


A) rockstar parking. Although if you go during a busier time, parking may be a pain. But not on a Tuesday night.
B) Storefront system on tracks that opens in summer to extend the seating onto a patio
C) HUBAR! not posting to the blog during dinner
D) they leave a bottle of water for the table. Finally someone who gets my drinking addiction
E) The to go boxes looked like minature pizza boxes. CUTE!

Not approved:
nothing.


That is wasn't summer so we could enjoy the patio



Intend to return?:

abso-FRUITLY!
