Our Story
Everything
on it
Since 1993, Mr Everything Cafe has built a name in Atlanta on one thing: grilled chicken done right. Chopped on the flat-top with peppers, onions and mushrooms, stacked with cheese, and served hot on bread or over rice.
Family owned and family run. Same grill, same seasoning, same neighborhood love — now at three locations across the city.

Real Ingredients
Fresh food,nothing hidden
We cook the way we'd cook at home — real produce, real spices, no shortcuts. Here's what goes on our grill every day.
Local Farmers Market Vegetables
Our onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, broccoli, spinach and tomatoes are picked up from local farmers markets — chopped fresh in-house, never frozen or pre-bagged.
Turmeric Yellow Rice
That golden color is turmeric, not food dye. We season our yellow rice with real turmeric for a natural glow and an earthy, anti-inflammatory kick.
Cooked To Order
Nothing sits under a heat lamp. Every sub, bowl and salad hits the flat-top when you order it, so the vegetables stay crisp and the proteins stay juicy.
Lighter Options
Grilled — not fried. Choose salmon, shrimp, chicken or our chipotle black bean burger over a rice base or low-carb garden salad.
Cut & Prepped In-House
Salmon is cut fresh, chicken and steak are trimmed and grilled on site, and our cucumber sauce is homemade.
Tell Us About Allergies
Our kitchen handles dairy, wheat, seafood and soy on shared surfaces. Let the team know about any allergy and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
