Aside from the tip, this is pretty much correct. $13.99 for a sirloin with 2 sides and free bread beats $10.96 for a quarter pounder combo any day.
Yep, aside from the tip and the 3.99 for a tea, unless you get water. With an expected tip of probably 4-5 on that order. Or else you are considered a "cheapskate" for not wanting to pay their employees so that the huge chain stockholders don't have to.

The readerboard offer got me today-After seeing it for a couple of weeks, I took the opportunity to try it out. Probably haven’t been to Smokey Bones since moving to GA 20+ years ago, but they opened one at the Mall of GA.
Half rack with two sides for $9.99 was the offer. Or get a full rack for $14.99.
Had a late lunch date with the wife to try it out.
Went with the full rack for safe measure paired with their fire roasted corn and tater wedges.
Wasn’t bad at all! Well worth the price IMO.
Both ate for under $30 +25% tip!

They have a good lunch menu at favorable prices too…I’ll probably be back for lunch at some point since I travel on that side of I85 for work now sometimes.

That's not a bad price either.

Good deal, eat there, take 1/2 the ribs home and add some sides and you get 2 meals for the same price.

I don't mind paying a higher price if I can make 2 meals out of it.

Just so y'all know the carne asada burrito all the way at El Taco Veloz on Buford Highway in Doraville is still only $9.99. There isn't a better carne asada burrito in the world.

Not to mention JBS is about to be sued by New York over cow flatulence…not even joking. Someone is gonna have to pay their legal bills.

Yep. I'll just buy a bigger freezer and buy a whole cow from a local cattleman.

I’ve heard a lot of great feedback on this place. There’s one right beside one of my locations-Gonna have to stop in there for one soon to confirm your claim- :cheers:

The only other carne asada burrito that comes close to theirs is mine and that's because I stole their secret.

We had two off I75, one on each side of Atlanta, both gone. The best fast food around now is Culver’s. You actually get walleye on their fish sandwich.
