Cheap Eats: Oga’s
This is probably one of the worst places to eat in Atlanta. I’m sorry but I gave it a try and I vow never to return. A non-foodie friend I’ve known forever actually recommended this place to me five years ago for “some Southern home cooking.” Well, he’s a rheumatology physician so what does he know.
Korean owned and operated, Oga’s is a diner-type restaurant specializing in “meat and two” — meals consisting of one meat and two sides. The place is clean, although, they seriously need to get rid of their Christmas decorations when it’s in the middle of summer.
Food is (not so) cheap with meals costing $7.50 and jumbo burgers for $4.75 (the smaller version starts at $2.85). However, here at Oga’s, you really get what you pay for. Veggies come from cans, beef patties are frozen, and I don’t even want to know where the meat comes from. The worse thing: everything is bland. In fact, I can’t even remember a single item I ate that had even the slightest hint of taste whatsoever.
The verdict: there are much better places in Atlanta for cheap eats that are far more superior in quality and taste. Skip this one. You’re better off having a real fast food nearby.
