List 14 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in Jonesboro, Georgia (Part 2)

Latanya MzT McKee Ordered my meal through doordash. I am IMPRESSED WITH THE QUALITY OF SEAFOOD AND THE AMOUNT. I WILL BE ORDERING FROM THIS ESTABLISHMENT UNTIL I FIND A PROBLEM..

David Brown Wow! What a treasure we have in Jonesboro! As i ponder my words, let me say upfront, i have been four times in less than two weeks since i discovered Papa James. I unapologetically LOVE this place. Right off, the food is exceptional, high quality home cooking. Miss Barbara is an angel and and an absolute wizard in the kitchen. Over the past two weeks we have enjoyed a Saturday morning breakfast of salmon patties, eggs and cheese grits, and pancakes, eggs and smoked sausage. The salmon and pancakes were cooked to order and were fantastic, and the smoked sausage was very high quality (beef i think i heard). For our dinner meals, we have enjoyed the Salisbury Steak twice, fried pork chops, spaghetti, and tonight turkey wings and gravy over rice. The vegetables are excellent and there is not a stem to be found in the collards. Regarding the atmosphere, the restaurant is in an old strip mall and the decor is simple, sparse even, but dont let that detour you, you are going for the food. The facility is clean, and the interior comfortable, and best of all, the owner is on site, engaging and happy to share her story. And regarding the owner, Barbara is wonderful, inviting and genuine. I really appreciate the fact that she remembered me from my previous visits and she seemed genuinely interested in wanting to know how we enjoyed our previous meals, a couple of which were carry out. Finally, i should note that this is not a cheap meal. Youre not getting a stale $7 plate from the hot bar at the grocery. Please go expecting a high quality meal, prepared and served by good people, and i will hope to see you there on my next visit.

Mia Bryant I love 1942. The vibes are amazing. My waiter Tito couldn’t be any better. He was very attentive, I never had to hunt him down, most definitely would come to 1942 Cantina and request Tito to be your server.

Shar Dorsey I was in the area and had a taste for some good fried so I googled some places and ended up here. Other than the customer service lacking, I don’t have any major complaints. They lack customer service real bad. You can tell it’s not personal though. Also, the fish wasn’t seasoned at all but I mean after I added the hot sauce and tartar sauce it was cool.

Williams Timeka (Meka) I’ve been to a few locations, but this by far is the best. Was greeted as soon as I walked in the door and was very helpful. Staff was very pleasant. Location was kept clean as well. I ordered the Jerk Chicken potato (it may not be on the menu but it’s available), and I’m happy I did. Very good and filling. The only reason I rated food 4/5 is because I wasn’t a fan of their chicken and fries. I ordered the honey hot wings and fries. The fries were soggy and the chicken was soft. I love my chicken fried a little harder. But the flavor was really good. Highly recommend.

D S Food is great. Customer service is wonderful .....Leah, who took care of us was pleasant, and real. Its great to come in an establishment and be greated with the best customer service and I work in customer service. The atmosphere is quite and quaint.

Tero Pero Decided to have a crab boil lunch and Juicy Crab was recommended. I have been to several Crab boil places and this ranks high. We ordered the onion ring appetizer and the crab boil bag with crab cluster, shrimp, potatoes and corn. We requested a blend of mild Cajun and garlic seasoning. It was DELICIOUS! Just the right amount of spice. Our server Kourtney was very pleasant and the food came out rather quickly. The place was not that busy as it was lunch time during the week. Restaurant was clean and well maintained. Overall great experience and I would definitely return here again.

Alyssa Shazel Fast seating and food was amazing. Kapri was an amazing server, we did have to call for her she came and checked on us and asked were we okay with a smile. The manager Derrick went over and beyond with service and I can see why he has a great staff . He came to our table to check on us even though he knew our server was doing great . It went to pouring down and me and my step mom had no umbrella and I had to be to work. He took the time to grab an umbrella and walk us one by one to the truck. Me being in management myself he showed true customer service and support. Great job Derrick and Kapri

Cathleen Taylor Its just the best everything is good the whole wings are fired perfect so good try it you wont be disappointed.

Shannon The food was amazing! Battered Lemon Pepper Wings with Fries! The fries were actually seasoned and fresh! The wings were super tender and you could taste the lemon pepper! The chef (stepssoulfood:IG) came out to greet us! Nicole was a great waitress and very attentive. The drinks were bussin! Also, the prices are very reasonable! New vibe spot! I hope this place does great business on the southside!

Josue Polanco Had the pleasure of visiting this cute little gem of a restaurant. I believe most of it is Dominican based food but there are Cuban and Puerto Rican options too. Dont forget to get your Con-Con!! Ask for some meat gravy over it tho or some beans, it will change your life. Haha. The food was 7 out of 10. The staff is super friendly. I would totally go back!! I had the big chicken over rice and beans and a side of potato salad. Very good

Steve S Went on Monday night after seeing Christmas Lights. Wasn’t crowded. About 7:30 pm. Had the sliced pork plates for me and wife. Sides were Cole slaw, sweet potato, French fries, baked beans. Wife and I do family style and we share the sides. Sweet tea was good. Waitress was excellent.

Eli Green At NVS Soul Food I have had the most awesome experience I could ever have at a restaurant. The food is made fresh and looks and taste as good as the picture on the menu. The staff makes you feel at home like family. The atmosphere for me is like home away from home. The facilities are super clean. The location is perfect for my commute back and forth to work. Its perfect for a great time with the whole or a romantic dinner just for two. They are really good at catering to the needs of their customers and the community.
