Matthews Cafeteria

turkey dressing day the best wish i worked in Tucker again ,, miss fudruckers n bambinelli's italian miss bonnie rip

Overpriced. And, for the most part bland, bland as if it was made for children with food allergies. What did I have? Brunswick stew. Very good, not bland best thing I had will get that to go sometime. Fried Chicken, it's better from Publix. Macaroni and cheese, bland one note.

Food was good but it's very pricey for what it is. I understand that restaurant costs have gone up everywhere. But my meal (meat, 2 veggies, roll & tea) was the cost of what I'd expect at a sit down restaurant, not a cafeteria.I'd return bc of food quality, but would get only 1 veggie & water to compensate.Staff were nice.

During our trip to Atlanta, we decided to try Matthew's Cafeteria for breakfast, and we chose an amazing spot. Eggs may be made to order as well pancakes. There's every breakfast meat to choose from, even fried chicken. How freaking cool is that. But I would like to highlight the large pork sausages my God TuhDayyyy!!! Listen, LindaBob'n'Ya'll... them dang gone sausages that they cut in half and servem up and out over that petition... Just tell the Lord Thank You. #NuffSaid #O'anHallelujahBut 1 last thing... we just wanna know, Frank and I, WHO BE THE SUPPLIER and / or WHAT'S THE BRAND of them there big sausages? SO SERIOUS MATTHEW'S. Way Y'all get'nem from? Do share tell us nigh. And thanking you in advance. OVER & OUT til we meet again by God's special grace. -FranknKimm

I used to eat here when I lived in the ATL and always enjoyed the southern cooking that beats any other cafeteria my parents took me to (aka - Morrisons). Went with an old high school buddy that never ate there before, even though both of us worked together right across 285. Got the fried chicken, greens (of course) and fried okra. Got there before the rush (always a downside) and enjoyed our dinner with someone celebrating their 80th birthday. This is down-home cooking, though prices have really been raised since I ate there 20+ years ago!

First time visiting, and I had really built up my expectations due to a friend's reviews. Unfortunately, I was a little let down. You order cafeteria style, choosing what you'd like as you walk along the serving trays. Servers load up your selections on your plate and you move down to the end to pay, then seat yourself in one of several dining areas. The prices were very reasonable, but I felt that the food was quite average.FOOD: We tried several different protein selections: Fried Chicken, Pot Roast, and Chicken Tenders, as well as a few sides: Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes, Southern Greens, Cornbread, and Salad. The skin on the Fried Chicken was crispy, but the meat was a little dry. The Pot Roast was overcooked, and everything could have used a little more seasoning. It's possible that since we visited shortly before they closed, that the food may have been better earlier on.Overall, Matthews Cafeteria is a cool place, and the staff was friendly, but the food was just okay. I would give it another try, earlier in the day, so I could get the food when it comes fresh out of the kitchen.

Matthews is the real deal. Southern/soul food cooking at its best. Matthews has been around for years for good reason. I don't think the recipes have changed over the decades and that's a great thing, because they are clearly quintessential southern cooking at its best. So many of the customers are regulars that you feel as though you've walked into a family reunion! This is a must visit for anyone who wants to experience down home southern cooking in Atlanta!

We came by for dinner and we totally loved it. Between the two of us we ordered turkey and dressing, broccoli casserole, sweet potato soufflé, deviled eggs, a fried pork chop, mac and cheese, and scalloped potatoes. Neither of us could finish all of our food and we took it home. Everything was delicious and well seasoned, no condiments needed. We eyed the desserts and they looked incredible. The portions were gigantic and the pricing was reasonable. We are absolutely looking forward to coming back when we want some country cooking.

Same age as me, so 'a classic' A Tucker staple. Everything is good, I adore their creamed corn,fried okra and elem school style rolls! We often get dressing at Thanksgiving/Christmas
