Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

During my recent visit to Cat Cora's Kitchen at Bush Intercontinental Airport Terminal E, I indulged in the perfectly cooked steak tacos, savoring the quality and fair pricing for an airport meal. The welcoming atmosphere added to the Brunch experience. The diverse menu and efficient...service stood out, making it a go-to spot for airport dining. While breakfast was somewhat disappointing, the burger and sweet potato fries proved to be a satisfying choice. Overall, Cat Cora's Kitchen offers a decent airport Brunch experience.More

The steak was cooked perfectly to my request, the accompaniments were very good, and the pricing for an airport meal was fair, particularly considering the quality. The meal was much better than the burger from H-Burger I had the day before and at a better...bang for the buck. I’d eat here again.More

Disappointed in the food - just so so. Service was good but the restaurant wasn't busy. Also expensive even for airport food. 😬

I frequently eat a Car Corras for breakfast. The food is good, and so is the service. However, the coffee is low-grade. If they would improve the coffee quality, this would be a five star place.

We picked this place because of the name. We are both fans of Cat Cora but this is just average at best. Perhaps that’s all one can hope for in an airport? Burger was dry, sweet potato fries were undercooked and my wife’s Grilled Avocado...salad was just ok.More

I was on my way to cold Cleveland on a Friday and I had a longish layover...I accidentally stumbled onto Cat Cora's kitchen! The airport was noisy, throbbing techno music at the asian restaurant...so when I walked into Cat Cora's, I felt immediately transported...jazz, soothing...ambiance, low lighting...just what I needed. The menu is not what I expected...I thought the food would be fried...but no! The menu is diverse, with larger entrees and smaller nibbles...soooo good, great choices. My server suggested the Faroe island salmon on red quinoa with asparagus...doesn't that sound tempting? And it was ! Perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked and pretty presentation. Add a glass of rose and you know you are in a competent restaurant, not just an airport fast food joint...the service was great, the entree came out quickly....I left my coat...when I boarded the jet and realized I would be freezing in Cleveland, I immediately emailed the restaurant. Everyone was so friendly and helpful! My coat was found and kept for me until Sunday, when I came through on my way home...so, of course, I had to try another item...I chose a smaller plate...lamb meatballs...and spinach...I must return...I had two of the best entrees....you will love this place!More

Slow down and make a stop at CatCora’s Kitchen opposite gate B 40 at the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta. We sat at bar and had a draft beer, tomatoe soup and appetizers. But the best was the friendly and fast service. Skip those food court...options and enjoy the hospitality by Peter who can multitask providing exceptional customer attention. His happy attitude relieves that traveling stress. Menu offers a unique variety for travelers.More

I was awaiting a flight to North Carolina and decided to have a quick salad. I ordered the grilled shrimp cobb salad and sweet potato fries. Let me tell you that was the best Cobb salad i have ever had! The flavors were exquisite! Just...a wonderful balance of flavors! I ate the entire thing (which was big). I am only sadden that i cannot receive this wonderful meal other than the airport. When i go back i will make my way to A terminal just to get this salad! Great job!!More

Stopped here for brunch between flights, and we enjoyed ourselves so much we hung out for about an hour. The service was friendly and professional. Seating was nice and comfortable. We sat in the back end of the restaurant, away from the hustle and bustle...of the main corridor and really enjoyed the respite. They made the wife and I the best waffles ever and a truly wonderful Bloody Mary to share. Everything we ate here was good, including a generous BLT with fresh ingredients. All in all, we felt this was one of the best airport restaurants we've visited in recent years.More

Ordered oatmeal but “hold the honey”. Still came overwhelmingly sweet. Asked for coffee twice and then she said, “You want coffee? Hmmm. Asked for milk. “Oatmeal doesn’t come with milk.” This is not brain surgery.
