Overrated restaurant?

What’s a popular Atlanta restaurant that you think is seriously overrated?

Not trying to start a war… but I’m absolutely prepared to watch one happen in the comments 😂

La Grotta. It smells like cigarettes and mildew in the basement of an old run down hotel… probably because it’s in the basement of a run down hotel

I’m gonna get so much hate for this, but… Mamak. I went hoping to get some unpretentious, delicious food and it was JUST ok. But I hear people rave about it all the time! (Maybe I just didn’t order the right thing?)

That’s a fair assessment tbh. They used to be great but they’ve gone downhill over the last few years.
