Souper Jenny — Restaurant in Atlanta

WAY overrated. There's always a long line here, so when I visit the museum, I usually go to the entirely much classier and CHEAPER full-service restaurant right around the corner, the Swan Coach House. Souper Jenny's turkey chili was so salty that the salt overwhelmed any other hint of flavor. A decent soup and salad for $18 (they say it includes other perks, but that's either a can of Coke or Fresca, plus a small roll and a cookie...) The bill should have been $36 for two "pick two" meals, but on my bank account, I was billed $45! Perhaps the worst part of all is the ambiance. It looks great from the entrance, but once you're inside, if you can find a place to sit at all, it's among people either roaming and talking loudly over others who are seated, or it's a couple of dozen squatters working on laptops! These people didn't even come for the museum, so why are they hogging all the space?!? Seriously, for an infinitely more elegant and CALM experience (I'm talking cloth napkins and tablecloth) that COSTS LESS, take your party right around the corner to the Swan Coach House. Careful, it's not open on Sundays. And no, I have zero affiliation with that place and don't know anyone personally who works there. Just a fan of the Atlanta...

Food: I had the chicken pasta salad, and half of the turkey and Brie sandwich. Both were quite yummy! The salad had great flavors, the pasta was cooked well, and the chicken was not dry at all. A little bit too much sun dried tomatoes for me, but also because I don’t like tomatoes. The turkey in the sandwich with the jam and Brie was an excellent combo. I cannot remember if there was arugula in there (I think there was) but if not you should add some! The roll was good too, not dry and held together well.

Service: They served everything in front of you and we had a nice lady check us out. The prices here were exceptional, I think we paid $30 for a sandwich, a pasta salad, roasted vegetables, a bag of chips, cookie, and a drink. Amazing deal.

Atmosphere: I liked the laid back atmosphere, we stopped in for a snack while we were taking a break from the history center and took a minute to rest. I think that some people come here just for the food even if they weren’t at the history center!

Overall: Prices are great, food is decent, flavors are there, I would come here for lunch any day! And maybe I’ll try their soup next time, you know, since it’s...

I must say this place is good. However the prices are outrageous. The food is good, sometimes it can be hit or miss. However for the price of the meals you would expect it to be organic or a little more protein. The location is a pain during lunchtime due to parking. Back in the day this place was awesome and food never failed…. When they started letting the employees contribute to the meal plan is when some of the dishes because sub par. The portions of protein in the food items started to decrease—- and replaced by cheeper vegetables. By promoting the peanut butter company, jam and bread I am sure they are able to swing a major discount. -Sometimes the sandwiches are soggy —-and bread is dry —- Plus only one stamp per person —- I have order multiple meals at once for my office 7-10 per time …. still only one stamp on multiple meals that’s ridiculous. Each meal should get a stamp… I have mix...
