I always go to Ria's for breakfast when I'm in Atlanta. The French toast with Caramelised banana is to die for! All the ingredients are top quality and they also have great quality coffee and peppermint tea! It is always busy, so get there early!

Ria's is my favorite neighborhood eatery, and we have a lot to choose from in this neighborhood! They are only open until 2, so you have to get in early to get a seat on weekends. My favorite is breakfast, but the menu is pretty varied and they also serve lunch. Also, there are plenty of choices for both meat... More

I'd only been to Ria's Blubird once, after someone told me they had good pancakes. They were right, the pancakes were delicious. However, I haven't gone back since, because I didn't think you got enough food for the price paid. No matter, how good they are, they are still fried dough and I remember feeling the price was too hight.

Local freinds have taken me here twice now and, other than the location being a little out of the way, this has to be one of the bet breakfast places I've ever been to. The staff is very friendly and accomodating and the food is fantastic. Pancakes are awesome and my friend always gets the brisket soup with egg. I... More

This local spot was fantastic for a late breakfast with a friend, but the atmosphere was welcoming for couples and families. With breakfast served all day, your options are plentiful. The shortstack of pancakes with caramelized bananas was filling and fantastic. The bacon was crispy and chewy, a feet not many restaurants can achieve and the coffee was strong but... More

These must have been the best pancakes I ever had in my life. They have to be using some type of secret ingredients. They come with maple syrup. All I can say is delicious, delicious, delicious.

We went to Ria's because the NY Times declared their pancakes to be the "best in the America" (although this would be pretty difficult to determine I think). Anyway, it was the Sunday morning following a special overnight hotel stay in Buckhead in celebration of my birthday. My husband and I decided to forgo the convenience of breakfast served in... More

You probably will have to wait, but the food is delicious. I especially love the beef brisket with poached eggs.

My family and I chose to try this because my husband is a cooking channel watcher and remembered seeing this place as one of the best in Atlanta, so we decided to try it on our trip there....I dont know if its true the main cook is not there due to being on a cooking show competition, or if this...
