Toast On Lenox Reviews

Great food and drinks. Our server was amazing and the food came quick just as described on menu. My Friend brought me for my Birthday 🎈. I flew in from the PNW

My cousin and I visited this place. We really enjoyed ourselves and were very impressed. We were both shocked at the crowd. It was a huge crowd for a Friday, before 230pm. The hostess told us we would have to wait about 45 minutes to be seated, but I don’t think we waited 10 minutes before we were actually seated. The entire staff was welcoming and they all had smiles on their faces. Our server was very pleasant and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was really good. I ordered the GA Honey Hot fried chicken w/ braised collards and candied yams and my cousin ordered Cajun seafood dip appetizer and the Blackened salmon and shrimp with the Mac and cheese and yams. Everything was really really good. We both only had one drink and were both very buzzed. It’s a bit expensive. I paid $58 for my food and drink and my cousin spent about $96, which included the gratuity. No complaints tho, the food was really good, so the money definitely didn’t go to waste. I would definitely recommend this place.

Chefs kiss‼️. I ordered 1st and the rest of the guest came and I raved Soo much about my meal 4 others got the same thing‼️ They also was pleased in the presentation as well as the taste! It was a total of 15 of us and no complaints!! From start to finish. Shout out to, jordan and Sasha, Nina (manager) Cierra (server)

Came here for Sunday brunch. First thing to note is that they dont do reservations. It is first come, first served. With that said, they open at 9am on weekends. We walked in at 9:15am, and had no wait. But being honest, you need to be here by 9:45am, otherwise you'll be waiting 90 minutes for a table. And I'm completely serious. The place isn't that big, even with additional outdoor seating. Valet parking is available right in the front of the parking lot. Now to the food...the coffee is great, but there's no alcohol served until 11am on Sundays, which is understandable. Started with the honey butter biscuits, which were good. I had the chicken & waffles, which was really good. Chicken was seasoned & cooked perfect, and the waffle had a light vanilla creme & caramel drizzle instead of syrup. My wife had the beef short rib skillet, which was decent, but she said the potatoes weren't seasoned well. She also mentioned that there was hardly any meat in her skillet, which was disappointing. Our server was great & attentive. The food here is good, but didn't come off as great. But it's still fairly new, so the hype keeps this place packed. My advice, if you're going on the weekends, get there right when they open or within 30 minutes of opening or you'll have a LONG wait.

One of the best brunch I ever had atmosphere was great. Service was great but if you go you better have a reservation. If you don't want to wait, the food was phenomenal

My husband and took a weekend trip to ATL and toast was on our list of restaurants to try..toast did not disappoint and our server made everything worth it!! If you ever decide to try toast on Lenox ask for Paulette she’s a delightful gem 🥰

This is most definitely one of the most popular go-to breakfast spots in Atlanta. I’ve eaten here several times, and have invited my family twice. Like myself, they absolutely love it. The seafood dip is amazing for an appetizer and the chicken n waffles and French Toast are my absolute favorites. I will go again and again.

The wife and me made reservations for Toast on Lenox while in Atlanta for our 5th wedding anniversary. Our reservations were for 6/1 @ 1:00. We were seated before 1:00 and our drink order was taken by 1:05 by Teddy… who is an absolute AMAZING and beautiful server! We started with cocktails: lychee lemon drop 10/10 and guava politan 8/10 Wife tried a second drink: Toasted Rita- 10/10 Appetizer: Cajun seafood dip- 10/10 bread 10/10 Entrees: Short rib skillet: 10/10 - idk whose idea this was but The short ribs must’ve been cooking on 150 degrees since midnight on 5/30! They were deliciously indescribable! Glory be to God for planting that seed into the cook!! Wife’s meal: strawberry shortcake French toast 10/10 clearly Mary prepared this crunchy not overly sweet goodness made in Her Son’s image! 10/10 Honey hot chicken wings 10/10 -Thank Ya Lord! The wings were cut from the hem of His garment! He reached down with all powers that be and touched that chicken before it was fried! (Inserts praise dance)

We had brunch on Saturday morning both good and drink we great. It is a must visit if in Buckhead. Make a reservation as it is very busy

True southern hospitality The food was delicious and the service was great as well. A go-to if you are in Atlanta. Prices are worth the meals

When going for Sunday brunch it is an absolute must to get reservations because the place is crowded. We decided to sit at the bar which was a big mistake because the bar staff were inundated and could not provide good service because of it. I ordered a peach mimosa and I'm not sure what sort of drink they brought me but it wasn't a mimosa and there was no hint of peach anywhere in the drink. After one small sip I called the bar made over and told her I did not want that drink and she told me that I could not return the drink. Never heard that before in my history of going to different restaurants around town. I asked to speak to the manager but the manager never showed up. So I told the bar made to cancel my food order and that I would pay for the drink and that would be it. After that she went back and talked to the manager and she came back and told me that she could replace my drink with any other type of drink with no upcharge. The food was absolutely fabulous so hats off to the chef. My sister had shrimp and grits and I had the fried lobster tail with brussel sprouts amazing!! I would definitely like to go back with reservations and sit at a table with a real waitress or waiter maybe the experience will be better.

The food was good and my waiter was excellent and very attentive. The seated us even though we did not have a reservation. It’s didn’t take long to get the food. The problem arose even my sister decided to join us. The waiter was like no problem. He added a chair and took her order because she was in route. Next the nasty and rude manager came to us and stated we only have the table for 90 minutes. She also stated we should not have been directed that we can add a chair. I asked her where is that posted. She stated no where we should have been told. I informed her we were not told. She proceeded to be rude and nasty offering us a to go container for my sister food. The waiter apologized repeatedly for her rudeness. The female manager is the worse.

The food was good but the service was horrible . This was our at least 5th or more time going to Toast. It was a miss at least 3 times. . We will never go back . I can get chicken & waffles anywhere menus the poor service and attitude of the waitresses and waiters.

Nothing was impressive at all and I mean not a thing. The food was NOT made with love that’s for sure. Nothing was seasoned anywhere near perfection, the Mac and cheese was good, the fish/grits and chicken were OK. Why they put fried chicken on top of wet greens is beyond me and the greens were sweet (yuck). The ONLY thing we had that was really good was the lemon drop martini flight and they weren’t even cold like they should’ve been. I don’t ever have to return here to be totally honest. Amber was our server and she was sweet, Christina listened to our concerns and made us another flight (all were chilled like they’re were supposed to be) and Sumi (the host) was very nice as well. We waited at least an hour for very mediocre food and a very basic experience.

My one star review is solely based on the deceptive pricing when we received our bill. I was a member of a party of 6 for brunch. When you scan the QR code for the menu it states that there is an automatic gratuity of 18% for all patrons, and if the party is 6 or greater the gratuity is 20%. No where in the verbiage does it state that the 20% gratuity is in addition to the 18%. This establishment charged us 38% gratuity for a party of 6 (2 out of the 6 were minors) for brunch food. I am absolutely appalled. We payed over $140 in gratuities for a restaurant that we had to wait 20 minutes to be seated. I am visiting from South Florida and I am in disbelief of the predatory pay scale practices of this establishment. My fiancé and I have dined at Michelin star restaurants with 6 months waiting lists that cost less than what we just paid for fried chicken and waffles. I would encourage the owners to be more transparent with the patrons and modify the verbiage in their menu so that it states (20% in addition to the 18% gratuities). I am extremely disappointed in Toast and I would never dine here again. No one should have to pay $548 for drinks and fried chicken and waffles and French toast. Restaurant goers beware!!!!!!

The best gumbo. Big people portion. The Mississippi catfish and grits the best. This place has a great vibe.

We decided to go here for breakfast/lunch. We ordered 2 drinks that we never received. The food we ordered was expensive, so I expected better from this place. It was pretty good . However, my biggest complaint besides never getting our drinks was the fact that they charge gratuity on your check and I’m not sure where the customer is informed of this but after reading reviews on yelp and TripAdvisor I figured out why my bill was more than it should have been. We got two plates one costing $18 and the other costing $22. After leaving and 18% tip, ( I’m guessing I left 18% on the gratuity I had been charged already) I couldn’t figure out why my final bill was almost $60, this was after I told them we never received the drinks, which I had to tell the waiter because he never even noticed this. 🚩 All in all, I would not recommend this restaurant. They need to make it clear about gratuity, not try to hide it because I’ve been to many restaurants that do this and that’s fine with me as long as I know. And I usually leave more anyway if service is good. I also requested a receipt of my final bill by email and never received a response. Bad business practice.

Toast on Lenox opened on Valentine’s Day morning. We were lucky enough to be the first patrons. The food was fantastic, the people were great. Light and airy atmosphere. We wish them tremendous luck and success!

The accessibility of the menu was nice with the QR code, but one had to make sure their phone is charged. (Yay for saving paper!) the number of rules and policies had me taken a back; however, TOAST must have had some interesting experiences with its customers. Nonetheless, I had the fried catfish and grits. It was divine. The portion was incredible. The fresh pineapple juice quenched my thirst. The main drawback was that it was cold. I would that the owners had come in earlier to warm the restaurant. The service from RED was great! She was kind and had a warm personality. Thanks for the delicious breakfast.

I was just there this morning. My condo is right up the street, but this was my first time going to Toast. Pros: The food was very good. I had the French toast with a side of bacon. Cons: Drink Menu: Very Pricy (higher than other Atlanta restaurants in the area); the mimosa that I ordered just tasted like orange juice. Since you can get orange juice for a significantly lower price, the drink was a rip off. Service/Tips: the server/wait staff will try and charge you twice. The customer service was just okay (if you are going to charge someone twice for gratuity, then you need to be giving customers a five-star experience). Ambiance: the place was very busy, but this is one of the few restaurants in Atlanta where I felt rushed (you have to leave the restaurant in 90 minutes after sitting down), even if the table spends over $100 (which we did). I go to other restaurants in the area, as a regular customer. I will not return to this one.

We visited this establishment the day after a wedding event. The staff (TJ) was professional and friendly. The menu was outstanding and the food was better than advertised. We sat on the patio it was a tight squeeze for a party of 10.

My cuzin and I visited the NEW establishment today and the first and service were great. The staff were all great, from the greeter/host Reuben and his beautiful energy and welcome hugs to Christina the manager who came and introduced herself and checked on our experience. I had the shrimp and grits, my cuzin had the fried chicken, collards and Mac and cheese. We had nothing eatable left on our plates. We'll definitely be back! TOAST to a great experience and more to come!

Next Level Authentic Southern Cooking. Did my homework and made the drive to Buckhead to eat here. Shrimp and Grits and biscuits, with sausage thrown in for good measure. Must try!

This was my first time visiting this restaurant and it was an amazing experience. We had a party of 20 people and our server, Javonte, did a FANTASTIC job. We ate on the terrace and the atmosphere was very nice. The food was hot and delicious. We ordered the Southern Fried Chicken Salad and the GA Honey Hot Fried Chicken with collard greens and mac & chicken. I would definitely visit again and recommend you visit the restaurant as well.

I sat at the bar simply because I did not call ahead for a reservation (I highly recommend a reservation) and was promptly greeted by bartenders Ashley, Eazy, and Tierra all who made sure that I had been taken care of. By a fluke, I met Chef Aliyah and Janae who highly recommended that I add a plate of lightly roasted Brussel Sprouts to my order of Salmon Croquette. So, let’s talk about my food, shall we? The brussels sprout arrived first. The plate was drizzled with a faint artistic design of honey and a smattering of lemon crème in which to dip the sprouts in occasionally. (Mom, if you can make my veggies taste like this!!!) Accompanied next with a side of spicy aioli sauce were my fresh, handmade, lightly crusted, coupled with savory seasoned salmon croquettes that rendered me all but immobile while eagerly awaiting the next morsel on the tip of my tongue. The croquettes were placed on a bed of mixed field greens lightly topped with warm pickled red onions to add color and flavor. Underneath was a fair amount of Geechee boy creamy grits garnished with cheese and made with pimento cheese that were light and airy. The smell facilitated a long-lost reverie of early morning Sunday breakfast with family after a brief outing. On the side were my eggs, MADE AT MY request of well done on both sides, not a hint of loose yolk. Next was a delicately, yet strategically placed made from scratch biscuit that captured the down-home goodness you would expect from a southern establishment such as Toast on Lenox. Chef Aaliyah and Chef Janae both deserve every accolade there ever was, as this meal and menu was simply put, superb!! 😊 From bartenders Ashley, Easy, and Tierra every one of them provided stellar customer service! (The only other establishment I have ever visited that provided service like this was the Waldorf Astoria in New York City). The balmy outdoor setting beckoned individuals who requires a setting of solitude, or shaded sun while receiving the top-notch service from the waitstaff inside. The décor inside was simple yet elegant, while spacing created an intimate setting. I strongly suggest that native Georgians visit Toast on Lenox immediately as they are quite busy, but well worth the drive. Should you not reside here in Georgia, but are planning to make a trip, allow me to strongly encourage you to ensure Toast on Lenox is on the top of your places to experience, as it has become a staple of Atlanta, GA……Buckhead that is!! ZMH

Very packed but sat at the bar for faster seating. Ordered the short rib and it took longer than other dishes such as the catfish and grits. The short rib was good and plentiful. The waiter also made a special mimosa that was delicious. The place was packed even though it was raining and there was a wait. Would recommend just for the experience.

Great food… Good experience. This place is very popular and always crowded. The wait goes by fast, and the food makes it worth it. The music is a vibe and the staff is entertaining. My one suggestion to the restaurant… replace the ricotta pancakes with traditional crispy edge pancakes and then you’d be flawless.

We had an absolute ball at this place.....cannot wait to go back. We were a party of 9 ladies (all family) from out of town. We showed up with no reservations and were taken to a semi-private room where the food and service were AMAZING!!! Everyone enjoyed everything they ordered and, had we had more time, would definitely have returned. However, the plan is to come back again and again. Tell all your friends about this place, I sure will! Toast on Lenox owes us nothing!!

The food was excellent, Salmon Crochets were the best I’ve had. We arrived right on time to be seated right away...the crowd came roaring in, thankfully we arrived before the line! Service was professional and courteous! I have no complaints so they get a 5! And they have valet parking

The best!!!! Our sever got our food to us so fast. To top it off she even sang happy birthday for my best friend!!!!! We are so ready for those waffles again!!!
