Local Expedition Wood Fired Grill

I miss this food spot so muchhh! It literally was my favorite food spot in Georgia when I lived here. Ever since I moved I just wish and pray they make a location in Maryland or DC soon. My food order i would always get was the chicken wings, with Mac and cheese, rice, Brussels sprouts and the pita bread of course. The sauces were to die for too! Service impeccable, food outstanding and ambiance really chill and always clean. I could say 1,000 more positive things about their business but thank you for the amazing food! & hope to have a location near me in Maryland/DC soon to taste that delicious food once again!

A little pricey for what you get. Not the best food but not the worst. There weren't that many people there when we arrived but about half the tables were dirty. I don't think I would go back again.

The staff was welcoming and friendly at first. I love the drink options as they have a plethora of ginger based drinks to choose from.The food is cooked to order, and prepared quickly. The quality of the food is noticeable. My issue was the lack of flavor. The local fries were the best part of my meal excluding the ginger ale. Thank goodness for the sauce basket to liven up the flavor.Also, we felt rushed to leave as the workers were cleaning our table and shutting off lights at 8:30 pm, when they don't close until 9:00 pm.I would not return but think it's worth a visit by others.

Can't believe I've never left a review for this restaurant. I always order to go. I've had the chicken breast, wings, rice, sweet potatoes and corn. The food is so good! Love the cilantro and lemon garlic sauce. This location has a free parking deck. The staff is always friendly and my food is always ready when I arrive. Highly recommend

I've gone to the Alpharetta location a few times and decided to try the Sandy Springs location. This place has a lot more seating than the Alpharetta location, and I really liked the lighting and overall ambiance of the place. The parking was a breeze. There is a parking lot and a parking deck connected to the restaurant. They have paper menus with all of their options and the sides are listed on clipboards behind the register. I went with a plate of sides and chose the Local Fries, Brussel Sprouts and the LA corn. There was an up charge on the corn and fries but they were delicious! I also loved that it came with 2 pieces of pita bread. My friends and I got our food fairly quickly as well. If you are looking for a place with healthy options, I definitely recommend this place! Can't wait to come back and try their wings that people rave about next time!

So we were in the area, and as other Yelpers had rated this place highly, I thought I would give it a try. It is a fast- casual style restaurant where you order your food at the counter and they bring it to you. They have bottled drinks as well as a drink fountain with fancy soda options. The food is reasonably priced. The best aspect of this restaurant is the myriad of yummy daily sides from which to choose..there are too many to name! I would go back just to try out the different sides. While it's not upscale dining, if you're looking for fast, affordable and tasty eats, give it a try!

I was looking for a hot quick lunch for the work day and this place did not disappoint. I had grilled chicken, fries, pita and Caesar salad. The portions are huge. I ended up eating half of it for dinner. The specialty fries are amazing!! Don't miss this spot!

We went here after visiting the little mermaid immersion experience. I was very excited to try this place as I've heard a lot about it because it is in the top 100 yelp restaurants. It certainly did not disappoint. One of the first things we noticed was just how clean the place is. The workers at the restaurant were moving constantly to make sure the restaurant was spotless. We also noticed that this restaurant received a 100 health score and that really put my mind at ease. The food was exceptional! I had the smoked/grilled wings and they were flavorful without any sauce. Although I do recommend trying the free sauces that they offer. I personally enjoyed the lemon garlic sauce. It was creamy and had a little bit of tang to it. The macaroni and cheese was fresh, cheesy and creamy, no complaints there. I can't say enough about the warm pita bread that they served. It was soft and buttery unlike any other pita I've tried. They also had a stubborn soda bar and our table enjoyed the hibiscus soda. If you go definitely try the grilled pineapple and ice cream it is reminiscent of a warm apple pie and ice cream. All the servers were helpful and answered all of our questions.

The flavors are consistently good. The Mediterranean salad is my absolute favorite. The lettuce is so crunchy and fresh, nicely flavored chicken. I absolutely love the soda machine options, pineapple cream soda is a must have. We sat in to eat as they have nice size table and it's comfortable. Good service too.

I have been to Local Expedition a lot of times and always have a good, consistent experience with great good and service. I work in the area so frequently walk here with colleagues for lunch, sometimes dining in and sometimes carrying out.Their menu is fairly simple, with the main choices being a protein with one side or with two sides. They have a few proteins to choose from but their sides are where the larger variety comes in to play. I typically get the pulled pork (but do love their wings) with their green beans (nice and crunch) and their broccoli. They have 4 delicious sauces that pretty much go on everything - two BBQ sauces (spicy and sweet), a cilantro sauce and a lemon garlic cream sauce.This is a great place for lunch or dinner and they are super quick!GLUTEN FREE TIPS*They have lots of gluten free options and all of their sauces except their spicy bbq sauce is gluten free. Be sure to tell them no pita bread when ordering and even tell them you cannot have gluten.*As of November 2021 my reviews are written from a celiac, gluten free perspective. I recommend researching online (like the Find Me Gluten Free app) and calling ahead for your own personal needs.
