I ate at pretty bird the other day, it was good, but damn, $15 for a quarter chicken and fries? I don't think so.

Well you know it cost more when the guy who "won" iron chef is working the fry line.

Tradition by liberty park was pretty good tonight. Everybody in our party like their food, and dessert was tasty as well. Place is a little noisy, but good food.
I had Pretty BIrd for the first time yesterday evening. Got myself a Sandiwch and the 1/4 chicken because as as true conniseour I had to have it all.
I got everything "Hot Behind" because I'm from the South and thats just what you do.
I wasn't completely disappointed. Does it taste like real Nasvhille Hot Chicken? No. Even Atlanta Nashville Hot chicken blows it away. With that said it is the best fried chicken in this state and I will return.
6.4/10.
Also very astute observation, M Billie on the dry rub. True Nashville hot chicken is dredged in a lard with the cayenne pepper, spices etc already in there.
Its about as authentic as Mexican Food in Indiana but its what we have to live with in this cultureless void of a state we live in so C'est la vie.
Also had Red Iguana for the first time last week and I rate it a 6.2/10.
Mexican food is like pizza, or like sex, generally no matter the degree of execution its going to satisfy you. Red Iguana satiated that appetite but left me wanting more. There are hundreds of mex joints in ATL way better. Don't see the hype.
Did you get the mole? Tell me you got the mole. If you didn't, then you missed the entire point of Red Iguana. I have a hard time believing there are many places that do mole better in ATL - I've had it all over the country and Red Iguana does the best mole that I've tried. Not to say that it's necessarily the best in the US, there are lots and lots I haven't tried, but as of yet I haven't had better.
Hey man, cool it with the bigoted remarks XD lololol
I got the red iguana platter consisting of tacos, flautas, a below avg Chile Relleno, and 2 taquitos.- As I said, totally servicable, but nothing to write home about.
I had Chunga about a year ago and it was good-although whats up with the fruit in the tacos- No thanks braj!
What do y'all think about Tres Hombres? I really wanted to like it but they put too much cumin in their salsa and the service aint great.
yea there was Pineapple in it-About as sadistic as putting Pineapple on pizza
Wrong...pineapple is traditional with al pastor.
I agree about the pizza, though.
Blech.
Yep the conchinita pibil is bomb at red iguana, so is the mole..all of them.

And even saying the mole is great isn't enough. Every other place I've been has one mole (usually a variant on mole negro). RI has what, 7 different kinds? Only one of which is comparable to the one kind that other restaurants have. And all of which are the bomb.
Yeah, "get the mole" cracks me up, seeing as how mole is the Aztec word for sauce.
The Pumpkin Mole is titties.
Get the puntas de filete and substitute in the mole amarillo. Enjoy.
Agreed on both counts.
Yup. I almost always order a special, but if not, I’ll get either one of their moles or the cochinita pibil. But ordering a special has never let me down, even when I’ve stuck to it to the point of trying a strawberry mole. And if they have huevos motuleños on a Sunday brunch menu, don’t get anything else.
Dinner last night was with some RI mole that we brought home with us, actually.
Ate at a great and AFFORDABLE sushi/yakisoba joint in Orem last night called Asahi. Worth the drive from off the highway. I got crab/octopus/shrimp yakisoba for $14.
Ridiculous.
Sir Heady ordered flautas and taquitos - haha- yeah I bet those are better in ATL.
Was that off the kids menu?
