Boneheads

Shrimp ok /​fries ok /​fish nuggets good. A lot of hype with no back up.

Came here a week ago. I didn’t really want to, but my sister insisted! The staff was alright. The lady taking my order was just staring at me like I was an idiot when I placed my order and kept saying «Huh? What are you wanting?». Turns out what I ordered was no longer on the menu! Thanks for taking it off. I ordered the tilapia with cucumber and lime and yogurt. It was alright. The flavors tasted weird together. I also ordered sweet potato fries. They tasted raw. Not worth it.

Place is dirty always– tables and booth seats not wiped down ever. Portions are so small — look at my pic of baby shrimp and less than an ounce of fish in my tacos. Last time I will be back

The chicken was so dry and tough! :(Sauce was delicious though.

Went to Boneheads at Atlantic Station today for lunch. Safe to say that this will be a one time experience. The place was poorly maintained, the silverware was really dirty and the tables were not much better.
The sauces on the tables were largely empty and everything were a bit run down.
We ordered their normal fish. One ordered bean topping and another the lemon yoghurt topping. We have a sides of regular fries. They later discovered that they were out of one of the toppings (so much for organization).
The food was OK but it was not really the type of upscale fast food you would expect from Boneheads.
In summary a run down place that has poor cleaning and poor organization with mediocre food. There are enough other great options at Atlantic Station so there is no need to suffer at Boneheads.
It has the potential to be great if anyone cared for the place.

I can’t imagine why the rating for this place is so low. The food and atmosphere are awesome for upscale fast food, which is basically what this place offers.
I got the grilled salmon topped with piri piri mushrooms, with grilled asparagus and rice on the side. The salmon was perfectly grilled and the portion was humongous! The mushrooms were a nice touch too. I would’ve liked more asparagus and rice with a smaller portion of salmon, but that’s just me. Overall, I felt like I had a really healthy and satisfying meal.
Also tasted the Bonehead’s shrimp (under appetizers but you can order it with rice) … battered and fried shrimp with a delicious piri piri sauce. It was so good!
Their sweet tea is also fantastic. I need to book my next trip to the South to try this awesome place again!

Ok prices, unique tacos. I got all 3 tacos to try it out as well as the corn salsa (which btw is def recommended, goes great on the tacos). I also got the clam chowder against my better judgment just because I love clam chowder.
So what did i think of the tacos? well the shrimp taco i felt was kinda plain to be blunt. not much seasoning, and i had to put their own store sauce on it to give it any flavor. the fish taco and chicken taco were a lot tastier and def didnt require any sauce at all. Id say the grilled fish taco was slightly better, but both were pretty good. with the salsa spooned over the top of the tacos, they were definitely a tasty, healthy, and messy meal.
And the clam chowder? just dont get it. its better from a campbells can.

I was skeptical about this place but ended up enjoying my food, «good choice baby».
I had the grilled shrimp (nice flavor, cooked just right and it was a good portion) with chilled brocolli (which I never had and enjoyed) and pineapple salsa (yum, I usually do mango but will try to recreate this at home). I didn’t like the rice that came with it though. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and I felt like I was making a healthy choice:) 3 ½ stars.

Booooo… Along with a lot of Atlantic Station, this place has gone waaaay downhill in the midst of this economic crisis. Wandered in here a few weeks ago and it was seriously a completely different restaurant than it was 8 months ago.
First, I was greeted by incompetent staff. He seemed to be very confused by me ordering two different dressings on the side of my salad. Yknow, so I can have a backup if I don’t like one of them? He ended up ringing up two *salads,* one of which was this horrible Greek concoction of onions and squishy cucumbers. Either this guy was completely stoned out of his mind, or it was a serious n00b error. Either way, a far cry from the service a few months ago.
The food also seemed to have changed. I got the chicken tacos and they were filled with *tons* of this white mayonnaisey sauce. If you know me, you know that I LOATHE mayonnaise and will remove whatever portion of my food has touched it. The worst part… Nowhere on the menu was this sauce mentioned as being on the tacos. Maybe someone made it up? We’ll say that my food was edible, but nothing beyond that.
Lastly, the place was dirty. and. sticky. Yes, sticky. Everything from the tabletops to the sauce holder in the middle of the table was. sticky. I don’t think I even need to go into why this is both gross and disturbing. I was almost afraid to consume sauce out of the sticky Piri Piri bottles, but I *had* to find some way to cover up the mayonnaise sauce.
I don’t know if they just fired the regular staff and hired a bunch of minimum wage n00bs or if the employees were really just slacking on this particular night, but suffice it to say that I don’t plan on finding out.

The food here is good. Love, love, love the fried calamari. I was disappointed last time I was there because I got the salmon, and it was super pink, as if too much dye was added. Usually their salmon is pretty normal looking, so I don’t know what the deal was. That made me not want to finish my meal. But overall, I like it. That was one bad experience out of many good ones.

Anytime I’ve ever eaten at Boneheads, it’s usually for dinner. Crowds can vary. Sometimes during the weekends, the ordering line can reach the door. When you order, you are given a number and you place it on a small stand on your table and your order is brought out to you usually in 10 minutes or so. I’ve ordered the salmon and chicken dishes and both were good. The grilled zucchini is really good as are the french fries. Reasonable prices.

This is a great place for a friday lunch. The food is great however the location gets pretty crowded and it takes time to cook the food. I would suggest going on fridays for an extended lunch ;).
I am hooked on one particular dish, the salmon with french fires, & rice. I have been there over 25 times easily and i ALWAYS get the same dish.
My biggest gripe about this location is the time it takes to cook your food. Maybe its a problem for me since i am going during lunch time. There used to be a location near powers ferry rd, however i believe its closed now.

This is a great place for lunch, and it’s the first place I’ve found that offers piri-​piri seafood and chicken in a casual, order-​at-​the-​counter establishment. It’s fast, affordable, and healthy. They have a great variety of fish, and I love their spices and sauces. I recommend picking one of their fish choices (mahi-​mahi, salmon, snapper, and tilapia are the ones I remember), a complimentary sauce topping (the black bean and corn salsa is good), and a side (I love the grilled zucchini strips). My brother, a pretty picky eater, loved their shrimp skewers that came with rice and a side. The portion of shrimp was surprisingly generous. Most of the meal choices will end up costing about $ 10 (no drink included).
The service is good; the staff is very friendly and accommodating, and they always substitute their house salad for the side of rice for me free of charge. This is one of my top choices for lunch places, I just sometimes wish I didn’t have to go through the maze of parking at Atlantic Station just to grab a bite!

Before I started to write any reviews, I thought to myself, no chains… don’t write about chains! The problem is that chains are everywhere especially in the burbs and I am guilty of the occasional Cheesecake Factory/​Outback/​Macaroni Grill. Today though, I am giving props to Boneheads. For the price and the amount of food and even the taste it really is a great deal. I actually chose to go to Boneheads over Goldfish the other night and I was pretty happy about my choice. Grilled Red Snapper, a side Greek salad and rice for 10 bucks, add a decent cup of lobster bisque for 3 more dollars and you are all set. On top of all that, I actually felt like I was eating healthy. (of course I think I ruined that by opening the bag of Doritos before bed) but who’s counting. If you want a healthy, quick, good dinner, Boneheads is your place.

Boneheads is a welcome edition to the «fast food» category. While it can still be hit or miss with certain menu items, just like any other fast food place, it’s good to have a selection that offers vegetables, grilled meat (instead of fried) and seafood. It’s hearty food, served fast, and the sauces are pretty good.
It’s set up just like the other Raving Brands restaurants — stand in line to order food, then grab utensils and drinks, and wait for your food at your table. I’ve only been to the location at Atlantic Station, but I would imagine that they’re all pretty much the same. This one does serve beer and wine.

This Piri Piri is definitely spicy. Try the «medium» sauce, even if you’re not a big spicy fan — the flavor is killer. I like that you can add a skewer of grilled shrimp to any entrée for like 4 bucks, its a great supplement when I want to split something with my girlfriend.
Downside: They haven’t had any beer selection the couple of times I’ve been there. I went from trying to order a Sam Adams to trying to order a Stella to successfully ordering MGD. Gross.

2 stars at most. All the chicken and fish taste basically the same. The staff seem to be really unhappy and some of them don’t like kids at all. We went with my husband and 15 months old girl. She sat on the table and tried to eat the rice but couldn’t since everything is spicy. She did a bit of a mess (like all kids do) spilling some rice on the floor and 2 minutes later, the waiter stood next to us and YELLED to the cashier: «Men, look at this» then another guy said «Shit» and started to clean the rice. COME ON! Can you show a bit of respect to us, customers? How about you let us finish before you decide to curse and pass the broom over our feet?

Where does the healthy eating fish and veggie girlfriend and her taco and french fry boyfriend go to dinner? Boneheads. My husband and I can eat the way we want to here even though we eat nothing alike. Our common bond is the Peri Peri sauce which is also said to be an aphrodisiac. (We may have conceived our son after eating here.) The «Extra Hot» makes us feel adventurous in our pseudo-​retired-​rock star-​new-​parent lives. The salmon and talapia are always grilled to perfection and sometimes I snatch some of my husbands fries, which are thin and crisp just like fries should be. If you’ve got a taste for the hot and spicy and want something different than Mexican, then Bonehead’s is your place.
