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

D.A.C I’m in GA for work and a co worker told me about this little gem. I feel there is nothing like a home cook meal and this is as close as it gets to me. I love the Latin flavor and this food was delicious. I got oxtail with rice and sweet plantains and I can’t complain about anything. Service was great, food delicious, and I’m glad I was told about this place, will definitely come back again.

Jordan Forsyth Little bit odd they had most of the lights out but the food made up for it. Ordered a chicken biscuit with bacon and the crunch was perfect, salty edges and falling apart. Definitely using real chicken for a good price

Damon Hewlin I was not aware of Hungry Station before our friends invited us. I didn’t know what to expect. Even once we were inside still did not know about the way our food was going to be delivered. I was impressed by the conveyor belt sushi delivery. The atmosphere was unique in the level of modern Asian decor. The place felt bright and almost vacation like. It felt like a getaway from the southern norm. When our friends revealed the food would be delivered by robot I was surprised. I still did not know exactly how. I had in my own mind the image of the little robots delivering food on college campuses. But to my surprise it was a larger three tiered tray robot with a touch screen head that talked upon arrival. It was entertaining for sure being our first time there. We immediately thought about bringing our family here. Food was great, service was efficient, and our waitress was helpful and friendly. I highly recommend going to have an experience at Hungry Station. The robot also delivered my complimentary birthday ice cream and sang, on key, happy birthday. Thank you Hungry Station for a great experience.

Ashley Grimaldo Since her video of the homemade tortillas I been wanting to take my husband for lunch since I am the only person that makes him the homemade tortillas but is nice to know now a restaurant 15mins from home also makes them! He had the country skillet with chorizo eggs and potatoes. He said he loved it and will be returning! I had pancakes two eggs and pork chops. Great too and pancakes were huge! We will return!

Chelsea Collins If you’re looking for food that actually feeds your soul, Culturistic Kitchen is that spot. The flavors are bold, intentional, and rooted in culture—you can tell every dish is made with love, not shortcuts. The seasoning is on point (not salty, not bland), the portions are satisfying, and everything tastes fresh and thoughtfully prepared. This is the kind of place where each bite reminds you why supporting Black-owned, culture-driven kitchens matters. Customer service? Warm, welcoming, and genuine—like family. You don’t feel rushed, and you feel appreciated for choosing them. Overall, Culturistic Kitchen is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. Comfort food elevated, culture respected, and flavor that stays on your mind long after the plate is empty. Definitely a repeat visit for me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

bryan @ UltraClean Really great food. Tasted fresh. The staff was super courteous & very attentive. I almost gave 4 stars, instead of 5, because it is in a strip mall. However, I know how that can affect a business. Im just not fond of strip malls, so nothing against the establishment. It was very clean & well maintained. I would definitely eat here again.

stacie greene What a pleasure it was to come across this gem! Easily, the best BBQ in McDonough! Great blend of spice and smoke! The smoked wings and brisket were my favorite (so far). Only feedback is I wish they had bbq beans and a veggie choice.

Nayka Vaughn This place is hands down the best Mexican restaurant! Me and my fiancé saw the good reviews and had to try even though we had our own favorite Mexican restaurant for the last eight years. So many details to this place! 1. All of the hot sauces and sauces are fresh and they are delicious! The salsa verde is incredible! This has to be a chef owned restaurant just judging by all the attention to details. 2. Our margaritas were made with fresh juiced oranges. They have a machine behind the bar that juices oranges. 3. The tortillas are hand made and taste very authentic. First time for me! 4. Chicken no matter how it’s made is very juicy and tender. 5. The menu has a wide range! I urge everyone to experience this restaurant. They have only been open for three months but we will be back!

K Williams Food is delicious and not too spicy. Great portions. They offer a lunch special menu. Meat always falls off the bone, rice and peas are delicious. The owner is down to earth and cares about the customers. We will be visiting again soon!

Novia Cantero-hernandez I love going here. The food is amazing! The service is outstanding, Heather our waitress is just wonderful and very friendly. The live music is amazing. The pool table could use some work as far as the balls getting stuck but the tables are overall awesome to play on.

JEREMY BUDHOO I was traveling from out of town from Columbia, South Carolina. I drove three hours. This was my first time trying this restaurant so I was overly excited upon entry. I noticed that the location was pretty small but they advised it’ll be a 25 minute wait it actually was sooner than that. They was able to take us back within 15 minutes. We will see it and advised to allow time for our waitress. We had a waitress. She was an older Caucasian woman and very sweet. Very nice. I advised to her. This was my first time joining and ask what options or what would be good she offered multiple dishes and I ended up trying the beignets which this was my first time trying they were very flavorful so good along with the sauce that came with them 10 out of 10 I would recommend them anytime. She then offered the fried green tomatoes. She explained everything that came on them. I told her I didn’t eat bacon however the others did so she said she’ll put it to the side. They were really good served with pimento cheese. This is a great appetizer then it was time for my main course which I ended up with the strawberry waffle with no strawberries and the fried chicken, of course the food was so good at I cannot wait to come back and try them again or at least get something different. The food was delicious serve very fresh and seasoned to perfection. The only negative review I can state is they didn’t have any alcohol or they don’t serve any alcohol lol and the chicken wings were pretty small. But they were good lol other than that one of the best brunch spots I’ve Encountered the staff was very nice and generous and well knowledgeable about the menu items which I loved. Can’t wait to attend again.

Teresa Price Had great drinks and meals at the Juicy Crab. We started with gater bites with the Boom Boom sauce. We thought the sauce would be too spicy but it was perfect and it went well with the bites. I ordered the Bob Marley to drink and the #1 combo with shrimp, sausageand added a lobster tail. All was boiled in a butter, garlic sauce. Hubby ordered the Rum Punch and the #3 combo with shrimp, sausage and mussels. He also added a lobster tail. He had his boiled in a Cajun sauce. Everything was cooked perfectly and delicious. Our server Cameron was great and very attentive.

Phillip Kuhl Came twice in 1 week. Once for dinner and once for lunch. Both were great experiences. Good service, quick hot and fresh meal. The beers were good and cold! Anyone can find something they like on the menu.

E. Strong Great location with plenty of parking! Ordered the fish and chips, overall it was good IF you dipped in the Tatar sauce and garlic aioli. Battered well and fries were seasoned good. For the bad, my wife ordered the chicken nachos with high hopes, but was soon disappointed. The nachos were served with dirty, wilted, brown lettuce and the queso was cold and thick. Asked for a remake without lettuce and this time the ENTIRE dish was cold. Even the chips. Our server got the manager Robert and he was a breath of fresh air. He was empathic, had good active listening skills, and made things right. Definitely should be promoted ahead of his peers! Service was good and atmosphere was inviting. Not as crowded as the Marietta location (which is a good thing). Will definitely return!
