Recommendations

"As a quintessential Southern diner, The Silver Skillet has been featured in country music videos and TV shows, including Triple D. Since 1967, they've been serving all the stick-to-your-ribs classics, including the famed Lemon Icebox Pie."
"Silver Skillet lemon icebox pie is one of America's great desserts, alluringly poised on a teeter-totter of very sweet and very tart, supported by a graham cracker crust and crowned with creamy topping."
"In the world of the classic greasy spoon, the Silver Skillet has been described as Atlanta's benchmark for its quaint quality along with a menu filled with Atlanta favorites like an award-winning lemon icebox pie."
"Atlanta's 55-year-old Silver Skillet Restaurant serves the lemon icebox pie of our dreams: a graham cracker and vanilla wafer crust with a chilled filling made of condensed milk, egg yolks, and lemon juice, topped with graham-dusted whipped cream."
"Best Biscuits in the U.S.: The Silver Skillet - The warm, fluffy homemade buttermilk biscuits (two for $2) are considered some of the best in town - order them with skillet-cooked country ham, red-eye gravy and a side of grits for a true Southern breakfast."
"Here's what to do here... walk in, sit down, and order the Southern Breakfast: Two battered and fried pork chops, two eggs, grits, gravy, and a biscuit. There is a reason that every star from Eastwood to Ferrell eats here. Good food and good people."
"These are the real deal, what I consider to be the best biscuits in Atlanta. They’ve got the fluff, they’ve got the lift. They ooze with fat. Most importantly, though, they’ve got the terroir: this is a biscuit you could ONLY get in the South."
"The Best Brunch Spots In Atlantic Station, Atlanta: Silver Skillet’s appetizing and masterfully prepared dishes date back to its opening in 1956. Beyond the eggs, grits, and gravy is their famed lemon icebox pie."
"The Silver Skillet in Atlanta delivers with the popular lemon icebox pie. Featured on The Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, the restaurant is known for the dessert, a lemon-based mixture on top of a graham cracker and vanilla wafer crust."
"No meal at the Skillet is complete, however, without a slice of cool lemon icebox cake, made with a buttery vanilla wafer crust and filled with tangy lemon custard."
