edward dellinger My daughter and I stopped in here during a trip on 441. We were immediately greeted by a customer that was obviously a regular, and the owner, who was standing behind the counter to take our order. I opted for a traditional breakfast. That was priced very reasonably. While my daughter had pancakes. We both agreed, that the food was very good, and while we were there, the dining room filled up with what appeared to be mostly regulars. Im still trying to remember to take pics of the food prior to diving in so the eggs are already cut up.

Natalia Brewer My dinner was soooo good! This was my first time there and I loved it. As soon as my plate came the aroma was 10/10! This was the perfect place to celebrate my birthday. Also, the mocktail called Mauve is great!!! So delicious!

Yvette Harris So we are on our way home at a have way point in Wakinsville and stopped at a burger place. We were greeted by a kind gentleman. So I felt welcomed when I walked the door. He explained everything so I did feel lost. The burger, fried and drink was good. My husband says the cookies and cream pudding was fresh, light and creamy. I would recommend Baddies burger Hhouse

Sam Beasley Prompt friendly service. The fried pickles are really good. Update a year later. I have upgraded my review to five stars on all three levels. This is something I dont do too often, but yesterdays experience was great. The food was outstanding. I ordered the Fried Shrimp Basket with a side of fried dill pickles. The price was reasonable; I received ten large shrimps, with light batter and not too greasy, just right! Same for the side of fried dill pickles. My dining partner has fried artichoke po boy and loved hers. She said that the battered fried artichoke hearts were so good, she wished that she could just order a whole backet of those. While I waited for the food, about 15 minutes because it was so busy at lunch time, I had time to watch the kitchen prepare meals. This small bistro (because it is a small local restaurant) is very well run. There were just three people turning out orders and food for about a continuous group of 30 people. This team of three women were impressive the way they worked together. Everything synchronized. They were all busy but friendly and courteous. The locals were friendly and courteous also. The atmosphere is one where it is simple but warm and cozy. Makes me want to go back. Parking is a little tricky but doable. I highly recommend the Traveling Hobo for fried southern treats at reasonable prices. Well done ladies!

Jack Armstrong We visited on Whiskey Wednesday that had $5 whiskey and 0.90 wings. Our drinks were made with Bullet Bourbon and very tasty. The wings are sized tight for the price. We had 10 each and carried 10 home. Tots are crispy and plentiful. We are very please with our night.

M J Ok! So what a little tucked away GEM!!! Went in here today & have fallen in love. They have so many options & it looks so visually appealing— that I almost got mentally overloaded. But this team was so incredibly friendly & welcoming. They greeted me right away and fully educated me about their business and specialties drinks right away. Meal replacement shakes are endless here. I can’t wait to return & try one of those. Today I decided on a loaded tea. It was great, paid 7 bucks and I think it was well worth it! So glad to have this fabulous new option!!

David Frederick Hands down my favorite authentic Mexican restaurant in town! They have all the right ingredients: - Amazing Food (and cocktails!) - Great Service - Fantastic Venue I have been a big fan of the quality coming out of Kiques Kitchen in Watkinsville. Now, we can enjoy the whole experience in an even better location, right on UGA Campus! Ive eaten there 4 times this week already...! Their Birria is amazing!!

Sam Hagler Over the past few years, I have written many reviews of restaurants. I try to be as authentic as possible, but sometimes I leave just short, brief summaries. Not this restaurant. My wife found this place because it had "great" reviews. Well, it deserves great reviews. This restaurants food is beyond outstanding. We started out with ceviche, (They have three types.) which was a citrus ceviche or traditional, imo. Absolutely remarkable flavor! We then had Pablano Chicken and a cheese-covered Chicken, both served on cast iron skillets. The onions were caramelized perfectly and the peppers were roasted to excellence. The side dish had refried beans and rice with an incredibly fresh salad. The red onions were cut into tiny slivers and that really made the dish come to life. They had complementary chips placed on the table with a fantastic slasa and a bottle of guacamole "sauce." When combining the salad, chicken, peppers and onions, sprinkle on some salsa and the quac sauce, you have a flavor explosion like you can only imagine. This food is awesome!! I highly recommend this place. It wasnt just the best Mexican food I have ever had, it was the best meal I have ever eaten (and I have eaten on cruise ships and resorts, and restaurants all around the world). Our server was Martha, and she was one of the nicest people youll ever encounter. She was waitressing all by herself on this night, but she didnt miss a beat. We ate there on a Saturday night, and I was surprised that this place wasnt packed. The food is that great! Everyone in the Athens, Watkinsville area such support this place. It is outstanding! Go get yourself some.

Will Wright Very clean location. Plenty of seating, and the lunch rush is practically nonexistent. The staff here is friendly and helpful and the wait for the food was minimal. Pretty similar to a Moe’s if you’ve never been here before. Highly recommend!

George Vaillant Talk about a hidden gem, we found Girasoles Restaurant just outside of Athens, Georgia, in the town of Watkinsville. Reservations are highly recommended for seating after 5:30. The menu is full of excellent choices and the specials are endless. We started our gastronomic adventure Shrimp and Crab Soup and Roasted Tomato Soup. We both could have stopped right there and had a reorder, the soups were OUTSTANDING! Our son so enjoyed the warm Sherry & Hot Bacon Salad as a starter. The Pasta Bolognese was full of wonderful chunks of beef that melted in your mouth. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Filet Mignon and Scottish Salmon topped with large chunks of white crab meat. I can lament forever. All I know is when we visit Athens area again we will eat nowhere else but at Girasoles. 10 Stars to the Chef and Staff, your food and service is worthy of a Michelin Star.

Victoria Lesperance La Laguna Mexican Restaurant: Fun, fast, food inside, outside, or to-go. Very clean and lovely decorations. My son found this place while we were going to the Watkinsville area just outside of Athens. It offers a drive-thru window, but inside its lovely. Im impressed by how nice and clean they keep the restrooms and in general. I tried a Mexicano style chicken taco that was delicious (on a corn tortilla with cilantro and fresh chopped white onions)! (They also have American style tacos on flour tortillas with lettuce and cheese).Plus, I ordered their Fajita Bowl with all three meats to try (chicken, steak, and shrimp). My son helped me eat my bowl. Everything was nice and fresh. The only item that was not my favorite was the rice-it was good, just not great. My son loved it though. They have ample parking, an outdoor covered patio in front for people with dogs thats lovely. Its conveniently located (next door to a Waffle House) on 441 (Macon Highway). It has an upscale fastfood vibe. Theyre still waiting for their liquor license for future visits. It serves breakfast items also in a hurry.

Ryan Poole Blind Pig is a great restaurant with excellent food, service, and atmosphere. The food is great and I highly recommend the bacon cheeseburger with the tator tots. The service is very good and the employees are friendly but the food can sometimes take a little while to be served. And finally atmosphere is very welcoming and the TVs are great for watching football games and the decor is very cool.
