Becca B This pub had the best bangers and mash I’ve ever had! The dish was so flavorful and cooked perfectly. The lamb curry was also divine. The sticky toffee pudding with vanilla gelato was the perfect ending to a perfect meal. Wish I could come back sooner!

Kristine Sorensen We’re in from out of town and ordered off uber eats. I thought the order was wrong but it was actually right from the start and the staff was so kind and accommodating to me for MY error. There was a young woman and man who helped me on 11.2 evening (wish I would’ve asked their names). I hope they get the credit they deserve for being so customer focused. On the same note the food was so fire! We got the sampler, and big dad sandwich deal. It was so good at such a reasonable price. Thank you for everything!

Marco Hull Mr. Honcho, his Son and entire staff was so welcoming. Each of them made my day superb. From the day I walked in to secure my 40th Birthday dinner right up to the party. I had the best experience. Flama Athens help make 40 that much more memorable. Check out the amazing pictures with decor and rooftop scenery.

Philip Riekenberg Hit Teds the day before Thanksgiving at lunch. Empty parking spots everywhere, much joy. The white Rabbit pizza was excellent, so much savory joy and paired with a fresh Bells 2-hearted off of tap, it was a banger. Wish downtown was quieter so I could hit Teds more often... My wifes chicken parm sandwich was adequate, but that pizza really sang. Will be back again when the students are not around!

J A We were delighted to eat here tonight, Abby was fantastic and super attentive! Made sure we had lots of refills and was so friendly and on-top of everything. The food was delicious and definitely seemed to be made fresh, very inexpensive and tasty. Definitely order extra croissants and try their monte cristo!!

Jackson Golden Great location! Finally came to Athens and stopped by here before heading back home to Duluth. Will definitely be back the next time I visit Athens!

Claragrace Coker I love the atmosphere of this place! It is full of families enjoying their time and great food. Our server, Jose, was friendly and efficient while we sat at the bar. He made excellent drink and food recommendations.

Jennifer Hulgan Cava was recommended by a friend. In looking at the menu on line I thought, "Meh." Boy was I WRONG. I created my own bowl with romain, 1/2 steak and 1/2 spicy chicken along with hummus and some other toppings. The young lady behind the counter was helpful with making choices. It was delicious! The We were a group of 6 and were the first people there. The dining was clean but otherwise unremarkable. There is in interesting assortment of drinks available. Lavender Blueberry was yummy on its own. I mixed a concoction of Lavendar Blueberry, lemon aide and tea that was just right for me. I am looking forward to another visit.

Nora Acevedo The steak burrito with Yuca fries was absolutely delicious. My husband got the Peruvian Rice and Plantains and his was delicious too. We highly recommend!!!

Terrill Albright My son and I had an early dinner. The roles were great and lots of flavor. My son had samen and I had ribs. The food came out absolutely hot and wonderful. Gabbie was our server and topped off our drinks without having to ask. She was prompt and polite. Everything was just great!

HS J We went on a Friday. Even though they were busy, the service was good. Reservation process was not smooth but the person who served us was very attentive. I ordered the parmesan crusted chicken, which was very good, and the seasoned rice was also nice. We also ordered the Outlaw ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. And their portion sizes are huge.

Soeleos Music Weve never been to Athens before so we decided to walk the town. We noticed a restaurant, just about opening time, with a line of people. We investigated and it turned out to be a jewel. Very nice atmosphere, signature dishes are a little spendy (Caramelized Scallops =$45), but otherwise ok. Also (most important) the desert case has quite a variety of cakes and cheesecake, we enjoyed German Chocolate cake. Overall, the food was excellent, check the photos, the fish is a huge piece of Trout, and the other is the pasta. Highly recommended.
