Casseroles

This made hosting family totally stress free! Thank you casseroles! I served the spinach quiche and the sausage quiche. They were a hit and I could just enjoy my guests. I will be using Casseroles Atlanta again very soon when my sister has her baby! I am so glad a friend of mine referred me to them!

Buy it, sneak home early, and tell your spouse you made it. As far as food and fibbing goes, this is about as good as it gets. ;0)

Growing up in a Vietnamese household, I never really ate casseroles and still don’t have the best understanding as to what exactly constitutes one. (Maybe it’s a mix of meats, carbs, and cheeses all baked together?) However, now that I’m grown, I do like to get my fix here and there. And, this hidden gem definitely delivers. (How would anyone find this place, if not for Unilocal?)
Anyone that doesn’t have a lot of time, but still wants a nice «home cooked» meal should take note about this Virginia Highlands/​Morning-​Side biz.
*****
I. FOOD
They have different types listed out on this long and brown piece of paper hanging behind the cashier, and they all come in different sizes (Small: Serves 2 – 4, Medium: 4 – 6, Large: 8 – 10). I opted for their small Classic Beef Bolognese Lasagna. Patrons can buy either frozen or un-​frozen/​made that day. I went with one made that day.
*Classic Beef Bolognese Lasagna: According to their website, this dish is made with house-​made rich, tomato sauce with sautéed beef, minced carrots, celery and onions, Ricotta & Mozzarella cheese, layered between lasagna noodles, and topped with parmesan. But all you really have to know that it’s super tasty, and my boo-​thang and I could only eat half of it.
Casserole also provides complimentary ginger cookies, and they’re delicious. So, if you see them, feel free to take a trip to #carbcity.
II. SERVICE
There may not be someone at the counter, so you might have to shout to open the kitchen doors to get someone. The person I chatted with was very nice.
III. ATMOSPHERE/​DÉCOR
Find this biz behind the building across the street from Alon’s Bakery. There’s a sign on the right of the building. Follow the driveway to the back.
Upon entering, you’ll find a small room where, as I mentioned, the cookies reside. There’s also a small fridge to buy local greens that come from a local farmers market, pans, mugs, and other cutesy local goods.
IV. PRICES
I do think that $ 19 for their small is quite expensive. Maybe if it was around $ 15, it would be a bit more reasonable. But then again, if it saves you a lot of time, then spending a few dollars more for a non-​frozen, bake-​only meal is not bad. I can see it going either way, and I really think it depends how much you don’t want to invest in cooking.
V. OVERALL
I could definitely see myself returning and trying other items on their menu.

I have to update my previous review as it’s been a few years and I’m still as big a fan of «Casseroles» as I was before. I have also discovered other great ways to use Classic Casseroles! It’s great to give for a new baby to a family, goes in the freezer and they can pull it out when they want it! But that’s old news.
I’ve found these casseroles are not only fantastic for holidays, but are great for travel vacations! We generally don’t stay in hotels when we go on vacation but rent houses for the whole family either at the lake, the beach, the mountains, and I always pack a whole bunch of frozen casseroles to take with us. They are frozen solid, so they go in a freezer bag or cooler and make the trip easily and beautifully! And then I don’t have to cook or go grocery shopping on vacation, I just preheat the oven and pop in a casserole! French toast or quiche for breakfast, Shrimp and Grits or chicken and biscuits for dinner! The veggie casseroles make a nice side if you get some rotisserie chickens from the store! Easy to cook, you don’t have to worry if your rental house will have the necessary pots, pans, spices, ingredients, and everything you need to cook for your family on vacation! So just get some casseroles for your next family vacation and have a wonderful home cooked meal with no work and no fuss!

Just moved to Atlanta. Gave Chicken & a biscuit a try based on the good reviews. It was fantastic.

Excellent takeout option since they will heat it for you. Can also grab for later in the week if you know you will be working late. Love the chicken and biscuits and lasagne.

Fantastic!!! I love their casseroles. I have had the chicken & biscuits and the lasagne. It is very convenient and super fast to stop by. In and out in no time. And the owner is so friendly. I can’t wait to try the other option they have. I think the menu changes with the seasons, but some options are there to stay.

Affordable well executed comfort food for the busy professional that wants a homemade type meal at home — got the chicken and biscuits

After we had our first baby, Casseroles saved my life! Cooking was just not on the agenda anymore and we found out about this little hidden morning side gem at just the right time. This is a very well-​thought out business and i wish it never goes away. The casserole lady is super nice and prepares casseroles to go, that you can pick up either frozen, defrosted, or fully warmed/​baked and ready to eat. They’re so good, we usually have 1 – 2 a week. The portion sizes are great. a small casserole is easily 3 (possibly 4) portions. you can pick up bread and salad (and sundry desserts such as whoopie pies, cookies, if you are so inclined) so its a one-​stop shop. The casseroles aren’t always low calorie, but they’re way healthier and less expensive compared to a lot of takeout. Also makes a great present for a sick friend, a family with a new baby, etc.
The variety is great, and with the exception of some standard items, is always changing. Of the standard items, the Eggplant Parmesan, Beef Lasagna and Chicken and Biscuits are spectacular. Of the specials, was blown away with the Lamb Pastitsio and the beef bourgiugnion (?sp).There is even french toast casserole, with a nutmeg/​cinnamon custard with a pecan praline topping that is also pretty great but not phenomenal, and I’m glad its not because that would end up being a regular weekend brunch thing. Which would take a lot of burpees to burn off…
Bottom line, go here. Get some casseroles.

Had the Chicken & Biscuits and the Smoked Gouda Mac N Cheese. I ended up not being a huge fan of the gouda, but I’d like to try the 4-​cheese one and see if I like that better. The chicken and biscuits ended up being a tasty way for me to actually eat my vegetables.
Great way to pick up a quick, hearty meal on the way home. You can most of them either frozen or not. My husband and I got a 2 – 3 days out of each meal and I had bought the Small sizes. Each was about $ 17. Make sure you know to go behind the strip mall to get to them. Staff was super friendly. I’d like to try more dishes in the future.

Simply one of the best places in Atlanta to get dinner for the fam during the week & parties/​get together any other time!

Casseroles is my favorite neighborhood place to drop in to get something for dinner. Homemade and easy! Call ahead and they will have it warm and ready to go. They have soup, salad and bread so this is your only stop on the way home. Also excellent as a gift for a family with a new baby. I agree with some of the other reviews. The chicken and biscuits is fantastic.

While demand sometimes outpaces supply at this Moningside hidden gem, you will be glad you finally made the effort to take one of the casseroles home for dinner. Just make sure to leave at least a couple of hours until you plan to eat as most of your options are pre frozen.

I am now a loyal customer of casseroles having bought a number of casseroles for myself and friends. Hands down my favorite is the chicken and biscuits. It tastes great fresh from their oven, as well as heated up after being in the freezer for a month. Definitely recommend for folks that need to give, well, a casserole for someone with a new baby or in our case a major kitchen renovation. Home cooking without dirtying a dish :-)

My wife first mentioned this place to me a couple of months ago. At first, I was sort of skeptical. I think most of us are. She brought home the meatloaf one night and we were both in amazement of how delicous it was. It was as if we were eating at a nice restaurant. The food was fresh and so well put together. We were hooked, so my wife went back and bought several more different dishes. One of the coolest parts is that we can freeze everything, so it’s as simple as buying as many casseroles as you’d like and then putting them in your freezer. When you want one, you just put in in the over for about 2hrs and dinner is ready! ALL of the casseroles have been amazing — I was expecting some disappointments along the way, but I have yet to eat anything that I didn’t love.
The service and preparation of the food is also top notch. This is a high class, well thought business that is well executed by the founder — We love yall, so please keep up the great work. You fill a need for all of us busy worker bees trying to feed our family a warm, homemade meal without the headache of actually doing it.

What a delightful place! My wife and I got into the habit of picking up a main course for dinner from Alon’s most evenings, but we’re going to have to cut back so we can work Casseroles into our routine. We tried the ratatouille and polenta first: its only drawback is that it is prepared as a vegan dish. Add a little cheese and it’s perfect. The eggplant parmesan is delectable exactly as it is. You get what you pay for in terms of portions; we’re going to have a hard time getting through a medium without giving some away.
They also stock some fantastic whoopie pies (from a third party, I think). One time when I got a hankering for some and dropped by right at closing, the proprietor just gave me a couple for free. They are seriously nice here, and the food is both delicious and reasonably priced. What’s not to like? Plus, navigating the narrow and steep driveway to get in and out will certainly stimulate your sense of adventure.

OUTSTANDING! Love this place for myself and for gift giving. Not your same old housewarming gift. Bring one when a friend has a baby or surgery. People will love you. Amazing quality ingredients. Try the meatloaf. The owners are so very nice. It’s a little hard to find their location, but well worth the effort. The way they package the casseroles it’s possible to pass them off as your own. Recently I tried a similar casserole business in Buckhead and will never cheat on Casseroles again.
Their small casseroles are around $ 15 and serves 4 easily.

Superb, outstanding, delicious and nutritious! I think you get the picture here. Come soon and come often, you’ll be very glad you did! AAA+++

This place is a winner from the food to the staff. A great concept of fresh pre-​prepared casseroles that keep us coming back a few times a month. While I haven’t «loved» every single item I’ve tried, most things are very good. Our current favorites are the meatloaf and the baked ziti. I’m still looking to try the shrimp & grits and a few other items. My wife loves the whoopee pies so I always have to stop and get her a few on the way home. One word of warning however is that the cooking times listed with each order never seem to work for us so we have to add an extra 20 – 30 minutes to the times listed.

This place was a little hard to find, but is located behind and down stairs from then stores on North Highland (Across from Alon’s) and totally worth the effort.
The owners were both SUPER nice, the store and kitchen were amazingly clean and the 3 dishes that we got were so good I can’t believe they were frozen.
Apparently you can also call a few hours ahead and they will have your items cooked and hot for you to pick up.
This place is our new secret weapon for dinner parties and nights when we don’t feel like cooking but want something better than pizza.
