Binky's Eatery

Craving soul food, I ventured to Binky's, a restaurant known for its chef who has worked with various celebrities. Upon arrival, I discovered that the restaurant was relatively small and seemed to cater primarily to takeout orders, which suited me just fine.I decided to order the turkey wing meal, which consisted of a turkey wing with sauce or gravy over yellow rice, and I selected macaroni and cheese and collard greens as my sides. Additionally, I opted for a shrimp and fish plate, which came with yellow rice, mac and cheese, and yams on the side.The turkey wing, while satisfactory, lacked a bit of flavor and tasted like a standard turkey wing - nothing exceptional. However, the yellow rice was delightful, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The mac and cheese was absolutely divine, and the collard greens were a true standout, boasting a fantastic flavor that I couldn't get enough of. The yams were also incredibly delicious, and I savored every bite.The fried shrimp was a real treat, with a delightful crispy exterior. Unfortunately, the fish didn't quite hit the mark for me, as it had a peculiar flavor that didn't suit my taste buds.Despite the minor shortcomings, I would definitely return to Binky's to sample some of their other dishes, as the majority of the food I tried was quite delectable. The soul food at Binky's is certainly worth exploring further, and I look forward to my next visit to this charming little spot.

The address on Yelp will take you to the street in front of a bus stop. Beyond the bus stop is a staircase to the Marta station and a line of stores that includes Binky's. It took me a minute to realize where it was near the underground.There is only room to sit and wait inside. You'll have to get the food to go. I was helped right away and the food came out in good time. I would recommend the fried wings, the fried fish, collard greens and lemon pound cake. Meals range from $14-$40 and the customer service is top notch.I think I'll be back to try them again when it isn't rainy and cold outside.

Everything was great from service, time of preparation, drinks, dessert (red velvet cake) and most importantly the food! Quit asking if it's good. If you're reading this review this is your sign!

Good customer service, food smells good! The presentation is appealing to the eye! Boom lemonades! Clean establishment!

When going to Binky's you might feel a little intimidated especially if you're not an ATL native. The location can feel a little dangerous just due to the amount of homeless people surrounding the establishment. Luckily there's a strong presence of GA police patrolling the area which gave us peace of mind. When it came to the food, I ordered the baked chicken with mac n cheese and candied yams. It was absolutely delicious! Finger-licking delicious! The chicken was seasoned beautifully & the mac n cheese had the best flavor and texture. The candied yams also hit the spot. For dessert I ordered banana pudding & red velvet cake. It had the perfect amount of sweetness & the portions were great. Overall, the food was amazing and definitely overshadows the location. I would definitely go back & I will definitely recommend this spot if you want to try great & affordable soul food.

2nd visit june 1st 2024..Salisbury steak dinner the sweet potatoes were horrible and rancid..immediately spit them out

If I could give it ZERO stars I would. Mark my words; this place WILL BE CLOSED SOON! This was absolutely disgusting. I ordered it on Uber eats spent $85 dollars. And it was ALL HORRIBLE. If you like fatty, tough, hard to chew oxtails this is your place. If you want burnt dressing that looks like literally (pictured) this is your place. They also forgot 2 of the items ordered. This was a waste of money, no one ate the food. Do yourself a favor.... DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. You've been warned. Binky's you owe me an apology. This food was offensive, and the price was theft. I feel like a crime was committed, I'm tempted to call the police.UPDATE: I share my number with "Binkys" because they asked for feedback. They proceeded to call me and tell me I was a liar & a "hater" (this is for real), they said there food was delicious and everyone likes it , they called out of my name, and hung up the phone on me! SIR.. you have 2.6 stars on yelp and gave one reviewer food poisoning. . Be mad at your below average overpriced food. The city of Atlanta needs to come inspect this place. Btw... I pulled The confainers out the trash just to add more pictures. Challenge to the readers.. find the "dressing" pictured, I'll wait . Let's keep in mind, the food was so bad, this is the only review I've ever written!!

I knew the food was going to be good when I walked up and it was crowded. Everyone around just kept talking about how good it was so I was pretty eager to try. Service was good & my food came out fast. The mac & cheese was the bomb, that was my favorite. The collard greens was so good, taste like granny's. Loved the fried chicken. The fried seafood was perfectly seasoned as well! The owners were super nice & hospitable. I'll definitely be coming back often, this was my first time!

Best soul food restaurant to-go in the city Customer service never fails and food always fresh with great specials 10/10

The food was trash ! The fish was cold and not cooked fresh!! Everything tasted burnt! They promoted a special and when we got there the cashier laughed and said it ended! The food is overpriced and overall just not good!! If you wanted to sit down and eat it's impossible being its location and you're r surrounded by homeless ppl!! Binky's is not it!!
