“10/27/22 I just ordered a Chef's salad from Mike's on Tillman Mill Road. This salad was so good, clean, fresh, well made and packed! It was well worth the price of $8.29 and really hit the spot for me. It is packed with lettuce, cherry tomatoes, carrots, cheese, purple cabbage, cucumbers, eggs, onions and I asked for the grilled ham with it. This is now going to be my go-to place for a great salad. The service is excellent too, they really seem to have a servant's heart. I highly recommend Mike's and if you haven't been by, you are missing a treat!“

“Catfish Cabin is locally owned and they have the best food in Athens and the reason they run out of fish is because they stay buzy all time and if u haven't ever worked in fast food then u don't know what the workers there go through they try there best to please everyone that comes in but thats impossible and if ur short staffed like everyone is now you got to wait I don't see no body leaving the lines at Burger King r mickie d love the food there and there workers r amazing .Catfish Cabin gets 5 stars plus“

“Gotta give them props! I eat out a lot & not very many places can get 5 stars on the food, the service, & the atmosphere but, Captian D's got it on all 3. We went inside to set down & eat. Ordered food, waited not even 5 minutes & got our food. We (2 people) got the family pack (10 pcs of fish with 2 sides of choice & hush puppies). Got fries & corn on the cob for the sides. It was a whole foam container of fries & 4, 5 inch pcs of corn on the cob. It was $39.39 which ins't bad for that amount of food. We both got full & had some to take home for under $40. The service was top notch which is hard to find anymore. Overall we were impressed. Highly recommended for sure!!“

“Wow you have to stop here at THIS IHOP! The food was so good compared to our IHOP back home! It came out quick too! Good 80s music playing as well. Clean inside. I wish the cook could be cooking at my local IHOP at home. The ingredients were fresh! The wife even commented on how tasty here breakfast was and the tomato was toasted and it really brings out the flavor. The spicy poblano was so good, fresh hot serrano peppers and the guacamole was so fresh. Please do stop!“

“Visited this establishment June 7th 2026 around 11:45am. Greeted at the door by the manager I'm assuming since he had a different shirt then the rest of the staff. He was very friendly along with the other staff. Establishment was clean. Didn't wait long for food, everything came out hot and how we ordered it. Staff was very engaging and accommodated our 1.5 year old very well. I travel alot for youth sports and I always eat at a waffle house wherever I'm at and this is by far the best one I've dined at.“

“Best Logan’s in the area. I had the best experience at this location then I have in a long time“
