Listen up, people of Kennesaw! Everyone loves to eat, but sometimes it's hard finding the right place for the perfect meal. There are so many awesome places to eat in our beautiful city, and here are seven delicious restaurants that I've tried recently.
1. Chicken Salad Chick
425 Ernest W Barrett Pkwy
This has been one of my favorite discovers in the last year, since I've lived in Kennesaw. With 15 different flavor combinations and delicious sides, Chicken Salad Chick is the perfect lunch spot for a fresh, light and tasty meal. Go, and try some chicken salad like you've never had it before!
My favorites: Jazzy Julie, a spicy mixture of cayenne pepper, bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
2. BurgerFi
2844 S Main St.
I recently tried this trendy burger joint in downtown Kennesaw and was super impressed! The burgers are original, the ice cream is super creamy, and there are several different drinks to choose from, including beer and wine, as well as root beer and cream soda. BurgerFi is great for a casual date night or a stuff-your-face outing with friends!
My favorites: The BurgerFi Bacon Cheeseburger with Parmesan + Herb fries with a bottle of rootbeer.
3. Chuy's
585 Ernest W Barrett Pkwy
If it isn't already, Chuy's will become your favorite mexican restaurant on this side of town! When your server brings your chips and salsa, make sure to ask for their creamy jalapeno ranch dip. You might as well ask for two to start with because it's THAT good. Just make sure you're ready to eat it until you hate yourself.
My favorites: The Taco Salad or the Stacked Enchiladas with any of their margaritas.
4. It's Greek to Us!
1355 Church Street Ext
I'm a sucker for a good gyro, and this Mediterranean themed restaurant has the perfect one. I usually order delivery from these guys, but their restaurant has a friendly, fast-paced, Greek atmosphere, so I'd definitely recommend going in for a tasty meal. If you've never tried a gyro before, now is your chance to fall in love.
My favorites: The signature gyro with either French fries or a Greek salad and extra sides of tzatziki suace.
5. Sushi Bites
2500 Cobb Place Ln
Sushi lovers, I'm sure you've already tried this place, but do you know all about their weekly specials? Monday through Friday, they have a lunch buffet, only $9.95, from 11:30 to 2:30. It's absolutely AMAZING. Friday night, they also do $1 sushi night. Make sure to check out their weekly drink specials too!
My favorites: Chicken fried rice with a side of seafood sauce or the spicy salmon roll.
6. Tom + Chee
1200 Ernest W Barrett Pkwy
The perfect combination of grilled cheese sandwiches and creamy tomato soup awaits you here at Tom + Chee. Their specialty, which I've never tried before, is a grilled cheese donut. No joke.
My favorites: Pesto and turkey grilled cheese sandwich with a cup of creamy tomato basil soup.
7. The Nest
2921 Cherokee St. NW
This place is perfect for a late night meal and drink (or two). Their extensive beer and wine menu is something that will keep you coming back every weekend!
My favorites: The smoked chicken egg rolls and house pimento cheese.
