Sweet Potato Cafe: Reviews & Ratings
The Sweet Potato Cafe is a nice little cafe that is very quaint and pleasant. I had the southern fried fish with garlic mash potatoes and cream collard greens. It was my first time eating cream collards. My friend Shela from church was limited because she is a vegan and had dietary restrictions. No dairy, no meat or animal products. She has an allergy reaction to tomatoes. She could only eat the purple cabbage after noticing that the cucumber salad had tomatoes in it. They had wonderful fresh lemonade with basil and cucumber, which she loved. She was unhappy after returning the cucumber salad. We plan to come and check out the weekly menu, which has more choices. Sunday menu is short and sweet. Thank you for charging my phone as we ate our dinner. That helped me out tremendously. Thank you, Chef Karen.
Man! I came in for lunch today and had the chicken pesto panini with sweet potato fries. The service was excellent and the quality of ingredients and preparation are next level. Definitely one of the best pesto chicken sandwiches I’ve had in a long time and the sweet potato fries are without a doubt the best around.
Our family of 8 showed up Saturday night at 6:30. We did not have a reservation yet they opened up a new section to accommodate us. The food was outstanding, the prices were great, and the people made the night. I cannot say enough good things about this bright spot in my family’s trip. We will be back!
Oh wow! Where do I start! My daughters and I ordered the Linguine in roasted Garlic with grilled chicken! It was SOOOO GOOD! A savory home style taste. We also ordered the Pulled Pork and Mac..that cuisine was such a comfort food..comfort for the soul!! Lastly, I got the Grilled Salmon, sweet potato souffle was amazingly good and the steamed broccoli! The salmon was so flavorful and succulent!! The ambience was great with nice relaxing, Jazzy oldies and some new ones. We really enjoyed the meal. To top of off, we had the lemon blueberry cake, key lime cake and the apple pound cake. Are you getting hungry yet?? Well you need to get to this jewel in the heart of Stone Mountain! Lastly let me not forget our great server! Cameron was very tentative to us and very courteous, friendly and served us with a smile. We plan to come back and bring hubby and my son this time!
Today after climbing Stone Mountain, I was surprised when I drove by the sweet potato Cafe for the first time. This is where I met Mahogany who was preparing to start the day with brunch. I asked her if they serve food in there, she said yes. So I did a U-turn and parked in the front and waited for them to open. This was totally worth the surprise visit, because the food was amazing. I had the Fried chicken and sweet potato waffles. It came with maple butter, that was delicious. The waffles were soft. The chicken was tender, this was a great meal. I spoke with Mahogany for a little while, she was very kind and welcoming. This will definitely become a regular spot for me after climbing stone mountain on the weekends, it is a great little treat. I also had a great conversation with Sharon outside before leaving. She gave me some great information on downtown Stone Mountain.
I don't leave many reviews, but I just had to for this one. I had a grilled chicken club with homemade sweet potato fries; the sandwich wasn't exactly a menu item, but they had the ingredients and were more than happy to make it. The chicken breast was superbly seasoned, juicy and grilled to perfection; sweet potato fries were fresh cut and delicious; all for just 14. One of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in a very long time.
What a sweet little place in Stone Mountain Village! I loved the vibe. Was invited for lunch by a friend. Learned that entrees are served after 4pm (excerpt on Thursdays) so we are burgers. It was delicious. The food was in the range of 10-20, but we also had drinks and dessert. The strawberry shortcake was fantastic and I don't have a sweet tooth. The decoration/atmosphere is very cool. I only took a picture of the bathroom sink, but wanted to take a picture of the sign that said: Yesterday was the deadline for complaints. I loved it.
We stopped here when we were visiting Stone mountain. The food was amazing and the waitress just kept giving loving attention to my niece and it was super sweet. We really appreciated that. Sliders had amazing flavoring and the pulled pork mac and cheese was fantastic.
