  Alright lemme break down Wyatt's for you.
  
  Wyatt's has been here longer than me. It's been here long enough to go from "You couldn't pay me to live around here." to "My job doesn't pay me enough to live around here" and that's for a good reason - it's good BBQ.
  
  Actually I shouldn't even say good bbq, they've got a little bit of everything soul here and it's all good. The ribs, chicken, and turkey wings are my favorites and they all just work.
  
  It's a small hole in the wall shack that hasn't been upgraded since forever, but don't let that drive you away. The food is good here and it's always been good.
  
  The mac and cheese is bomb, the yams are sweet, the peach cobbler is banging, the ribs lit - I could go into so many different words but I'll leave it with 'the food is good.'
  
  It's a takeout only spot, so don't bring the family with you - bring it to them instead. But outside of that? Just prepare for some good down to earth food.

  Having grown up in East Atlanta, I used to love Wyatt's and over the years, my family has ordered from them countless times and introduced so many others to them.  Today, they lost all of our business.
  
  We know they run out of food early, so we called ahead and ordered 3 slabs of ribs.  The lady who works there said she would hold them for us.  I told her we would be there at 5 pm.  We arrived and had to wait outside in line because there was no room inside.  
  
  As I was standing in line, she yells out that they have no more ribs or bbq chicken.  I wait patiently in line thinking she means they have no more outside of what she reserved for me.  She finally gets to me after waiting 13 minutes and ask her if she has the ones she held for me.  She says that I wasn't there at 5 and they held them for 15 minutes and couldn't hold them any longer.  It's now 5:20, so she just outright lied.  She's always been somewhat rude but we overlooked it in the past because the food was so good and we only had to deal with her long enough to place an order, but I can't look past the lack of integrity she showed today.
  
  Anna's BBQ is less than 5 minutes away in Kirkwood and the food is delicious, they have seating and they are always kind to their customers.  In addition, they were voted best BBQ in Atlanta for 2019.
  
  Do yourself a favor and give Anna's a try.

  When I'm craving bbq i go to Wyatt's. When I'm craving soul food i go to Wyatt's. Amazing hospitality. Try favorite is the cabbage, turkey wing, corn bread & yams but everything is amazing!

  The microwave caught me off guard Lmao. The mac was not good to me, my bf said he thought it wasnt nasty but 'different' . The yams were amazing. (Thats why they got 3 stars) and the guy at the register had on headphones but was saying he couldnt hear us and talking loud af.... just take the headphones out ?..... anyway its okay.

  Don't eat at whyatt's bbq. I went to whyatt's bbq for a pulled pork plate. When I got home and started eating I realized some racist had spit their gum in my pulled pork and covered it up. If your white don't ever eat at whyatt's.
