Cafe Dupri   

Okay I guess if you are tranforming this foodcategory 's image ....the best soul food is always broke..They use todays sales to buy fir cash the next days offerings....so why haven't y'all included Son's Place...It is arguably the best known (and wonderful) of the Soul food emporiums. Locals know Son's relationship to icon "Deacon Burton" (remarkable how the fruit falls so close to the tree) who purveyed his true Southern fare to the people who understand this food genre best. Sons and DAWters (be sure to drag out that last syllabe) of the old Southern FOOD aristocracy.

My husband and I frequent Cafe Dupri on the weekends with our small daughter. The food is outstanding. Whether you enjoy the So So Def Omlet (which has asiago cheese, spinach, turkey sausage, peppers, and onions), the shrimp and grits, the AMAZING turkey burger, or some other delicious entree, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!. The service, however, on the weekend is less than desirable. If you arrive after 10AM expect long delays in being seated and getting your food. Five stars for the food but only two for the service

10/21/06 A friend and I stopped in just to see how it was and I kind of expected more. The ambiance was real regular,not much of a looker on the inside or outside, ecspecially considering the Pidemont/ Buckhead area. The food was good, and we were served plaintain chips and the best salsa dip ever as the free appetizer. I ordered the French Toast and potatoes and my friend ordered the steak burger. We each thouroughly enjoyed our meals however, the Entrees are rather high considering where we were, but our meals were more reasonably priced. I strongly believe in supporting black businesses so I would definitely go back and order, but not expecting anything at all extravagant or date worthy.
