The Colonnade Restaurant

Oh so good. Great value , and the chicken is out of this world. Chicken Fried Steak blew my mind also. Just go, and soak in the people and the food.

Meat and three hardly does justice to this great Atlanta tradition! Wonderful veggies and unexpectedly good drinks from great bartenders . Friendly and super-efficient staff .

Best people watching ever. Go early for dinner , like at 5, to get specials!! Fried chicken not recommended. Pot roast is great. Parking lot can be terrifying because of methy motel .

The best yeast rolls on the planet. Plus, all the classic Southern staples done to perfection -- fried okra , collards , fried chicken , pot roast , black eyed peas , cornbread , gravy .... yum!

AWEsome food, prices and service. This place is an Atlanta icon.

It doesn’t get much more old-school Atlanta quite like an early supper of fried chicken at The Colonnade. When we say old school, we mean it, too. They’ve been serving Atlanta for nearly 90 years. Read more

Classic Southern food at an Atlanta landmark . Full bar with great drinks. In business since 1927. Many great signature dishes, including the fried chicken . Daily chef 's special dishes.

Need somewhere to take grandma after church ? This is it. Known for decades for its "gays and grays" and the best Southern food in town . And, yes, that's a strip club across the street.

I love this place. Old time atmosphere, great staff and, most of all, great food. Oh, and great Bloody Marys . I try to go there every Sunday

Good Southern Food ; the fried chicken is very good. The chicken fried steak was on point, not heavily breaded and delicious

Been eating here for 30 years. Always good. Fried chicken is the best. Bar is great. If J is working, she'll make you a great drink. Manhattan straight up is my fav.

For an extra good deal , hit the early bird menu before 6:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and join a crowd that spans toddlers to seniors, all eager for a plate of Southern hospitality . Read more

Great food here and at a great value . You'll see lots of Lincolns and Cadillacs in the lot for lunch and before dinner rush. All the grey-hairs eat here.

It's crowded , even with the large, enclosed patio , but on a cold evening the see-and-be-seen place is inside. Read more

It's one of the few places left where you can get fried chicken livers and grilled calves liver with smothered onions . Both fabulous!

The fried chicken is the go-to order for generations of Atlantans. When you're looking for the dining equivalent of a comfortable old friend, visit the Colonnade.

Befitting its age and its old-school ambience, the Colonnade takes its time. The classic Southern fried chicken is cooked to order. Read more

Large shrimp + fried chicken (2 breasts, 2 wings !) = split half of each with a friend for a banquet fit for a king - top it off with hod fudge cake with peppermint ice cream - this place is the height
