The Greatest of the Plates — Restaurant in Atlanta

I finally was able to check out The Greatest of The Plates after following them on Instagram. Here's my experience, First I'm going to start with the person who runs their Instagram, After my first unannounced visit and getting there only to see that they were closed abruptly, I was a little sad and disappointed. I reached out to their IG via DM and got an apology for the inconvenience which I appreciate it. Well about 2 weeks later I tried again, but this time I reached out to them via DM again to make sure that they were open BEFORE I made that drive, and the person replied VERY fast and said yes they were open and told me some of the items that they had in stock. I really appreciate it there fast response. So me and my buddy headed down from Conyers. Upon arrival, parking was horrible but luckily I was able to finesse a space directly in front of the door 🚪. So be prepared to drive around a few times to park also pay attention to the parking signs and the pay dates and times Ain't nobody trying to get booted out here in these streets. It was a Sunday night which I thought the place would be packed or have music etc, to my surprise it wasn't. I was able to walk in and it was kind of empty. I was greeted by the lady at the counter by the name of Kelalah, She was so nice. She was very informative and down to earth, she said she was from Detroit, And that's when I knew why she was so cool. She made recommendations based off her personal experience as well as popular selling items. Because I knew I was going somewhere else after, there I didn't want to eat too heavy so I ordered the buffalo shrimp with fries, and the big wet box. However of course you can't just have that and because I'm a fat boy inside I had to get a drink and a dessert too. I ordered the lemonade, and the Fruity Pebble Cake. It all came up to about $25 plus her $5 tip. I believe in tipping people because I used to be a server/cashier and a lot of people take for granted and they think that You're tipping the restaurant but I don't believe that. You haven't experienced the restaurant yet, so You're tipping the person who's in front of you who gave you service, who made recommendations and gave you the impression of the restaurant before you get your food so they deserve a tip. ON TO THE FOOD: Jonah made our food and brought it out. He was real chill and laid back, He kind of gave off thug vibes but actually ended up being very nice in the end. Big Ups 2 U lil homie! ✌🏿 . Thanks! Now Here is Review: -Cooking/Processing time: 5/5 Our order came out really fast maybe that's because they weren't as packed but I was very pleased. -Heat/Temperature: 5/5 -Taste *Burger 🍔 in Box: 5/5 *Fries: Their Fries 🍟 🤷🏿 They All The Same to Me! *Wings: 5/5 - I wish they was bigger, but I know it's hard out here in the streets for wings nowadays so I understand. Can't please everyone and keep close affordable. *Egg rolls: 5/5 Def a added delight. *Buffalo Shrimp 🍤: 5/5 (I definitely was not expecting these shrimp to be so big. I was expecting to be disappointed but I was HIGHLY impressed with the size, I'll definitely be back for this on a day where you want something light. -Dipping Sauce: *Ranch: 0/5 (Man this was the worst tasting shit I ever had in my life. It wasn't even fully white. It tastes like straight up feet like you could smell it and it tasted like feet. I said this can't be ranch, It can't be. They actually brought out the bottle to show me and it was Kroger Buttermilk Ranch. I asked to see the expiration date because the color was wrong. The expiration date was next month. Like less than 30 days. I told them ranch usually has 6 months to a year expiration date. This bottle is clearly old. Y'all must have bought this from a place around corner & not a real store or summin because it's been sitting on the shelf too long. Ranch is white, this is eggshell at best. *20k Gold Sauce: 5/5 This sauce was actually very good I put it on the fries and the shrimp. *Fruity Pebble Cake: 1/5 Str8 food coloring. 🤮 Overall experience I say was a 5/5...

This is our 2nd time ordering from this establishment on DoorDash. The first time we had it was amazing. Both of our meals were hot, correct, and delicious. Idk who was mad in the kitchen last night but our food was trash last night. I enjoyed the little wet burger box so much the last time that I ordered it again. The same exact way as the first time. My boyfriend ordered the wings and shrimp this time and was extremely disappointed. My food was DRY as the desert. Not a thing was wet about it. I ordered it wet and got a sad amount of sauce on just my fries. My wings were supposed to be naked and they were covered in that awful breading and tough. Once you get past the breading, the chicken was bland and unseasoned. My burger had raw red onions thrown on it which I did not ask for and the burger was extremely dry with no sauce on it. The patty was a turn dry piece of beef. My boyfriend’s wings were naked (which is what I ordered mine to be), his shrimp tasted old and flavorless, and his fries were terrible. It was almost as though they boxed up cold food and sent it to us. The clamshell boxes weren’t even steamy and wet like they should have been if there was actual hot food in them. We ordered strawberry lemonade and they were GREEN. We could smell GREEN APPLE was added to our drinks which made them taste awful! Our first order came to us hot and delicious and correct. This one had no love in the food and for $70, I expected more. I ate it because I was so hungry but waiting an hour for the food to be ready and delivered and receiving the cold dry plates of sadness has completely turned me off to this place. The quality of the food was piss poor to say the least. By the time we got our food and looked at it and tested it, it was too late to order anything else. My boyfriend offered to go pick up something else but if I wanted to go outside, I wouldn’t have spent $70 on DoorDash. We were both disappointed for the rest of the night. There’s no greater let down than to be dissatisfied with the food you had your mouth ready for. Idk who was in the kitchen last night but they prepared our food as if they had a personal vendetta against us. Needless to say, we won’t be ordering from here or recommending it to our friends and family. Nobody in that kitchen should have been happy, proud, or satisfied with sending that sorry excuse for food out...

ONLY REASON you guys are getting 3 stars overall because my last two times ordering I was not satisfied with the customer service or taste. Last night I ordered for the 3rd time I ordered seafood eggrolls and fries. You guys turned away my third driver after telling him that the food wasn’t ready. He stayed an EXTRA 30 minutes for my food just for you guys to tell him somebody already took my order which why would I have had 3 drivers come to your store to get my order if initially it wasn’t even ready to begin with? By the time the fourth driver got there I’m assuming Uber contacted you all or you seen my back to back missed calls but luckily I was able to get my food remade and delivered by the 4th driver. Then when I finally get my order I was highly disappointed to have took a bite out of my eggroll to only find out it’s dry chicken with sauce on top to help (which it didn’t). Now the 2nd time I came I decided to give these eggrolls a try and immediately regretted it. I was so disappointed in my meal last night and only ate it because I was that hungry. I really was looking forward to the seafood eggroll that I had when I first ordered from you guys. The little burger box has always been very tasty when it comes to the flavors between the burger and wings. I hope you guys decide to have 2 people working up front soon so one can strictly focus on Togo orders and someone can focus on walk-in orders which was the big issue when I came the first 2 times. The atmosphere is there definitely see the vision but you need better trained service employees who can better handle high volume orders and can make sure orders are getting sent out in a decent time I know this isn’t always possible but with the right staffing anything is possible. I hope to return soon and pick up in person because delivery will not be an option anymore. The picture below are when I first tried you guys and my order from last night and I think we all can agree one looks more appealing...
