“Whenever you see a recommendation about Mrs. Craig Vanessa don't doubt she's the best trader I've ever worked with her trading is second to none Mrs. Craig Vanessa has a successful mindset alongside superior technical knowledge. Amazing work culture, everyone is willing to invest with her because she makes a good profit of over $12,050 with just a minimum of $1000 in 7 days. I wish I had contacted her earlier enough it would have been much better. Contact her through WhatsApp with her cell number on her Facebook Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“A flawless dining experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the staff attentive without being overbearing, and every dish was thoughtfully prepared. I particularly enjoyed the meatballs, fish and salad— it was perfectly balanced in flavor and beautifully presented. Highly recommend for anyone seeking quality cuisine in a relaxed setting.“

“Everything was great- from the service to the food! This will be our go to spot for our trips to Augusta from now on!“

“Great food! My husband and I split a club sandwich. I had a cup of chicken noodle soup and he had a bowl of loaded potato soup! We were stuffed! Our server, Eli, was wonderful! Very attentive! Best lunch I’ve had in a while!“

“This place is a hidden gem. Been here twice in a month and tried different sandwiches each time and every single one is delicious, the group of friends I've gone with said the same about their sandwiches as well. The cheesecake is delicious as well, don't miss it! Only bad part was the most recent visit, yesterday 11 July, the service was terrible. Had to wave down another waitress who happened to be walking by just to get drink refills even though they were empty when they brought our food. Our waiter would disappear for like 20 minutes when we did see him. Definitely recommend for the food, not so much the service.“

“I would like to see a menu for each day of the week.“

“We hosted a real estate event on the patio at Arsenal Tap Room and it was a great experience all around. The space was perfect for gathering, the atmosphere was relaxed, and everything ran smoothly. Staff was friendly and easy to work with, which made hosting simple. Definitely a great spot for events or just hanging out.“

“I wish there was a way to rate higher for service. We recently came to SC from Florida and heard California Dreaming had an amazing salad. Well, it was better than amazing HOWEVER our waitress was the best part of the meal. Shy is incredible, so much so, we made a second trip to eat here during our short visit. I truly hope someone recognizes her hard work. When we were about to leave, someone was walking around asking how things were and we heard the table next to us also saying, they were there from Florida. Maybe it’s a sign to bring California Dreaming to Florida pretty please and make Shy your corporate trainer for service personnel.“

“Loved our first time here! Katie was terrific, and the manager, cam, was very helpful too.

Food was delicious, but the service and atmosphere really put this over the top!! Would come back, 5/5. Also the walls are really cool!“

“I just come here mainly just to see the owner
He always tells me how beautiful I am
Sweet notes with order 🥰
he even walks me out to my car and chats/hugs me for what feels like hours.
The food is the best and I will never get enough of this place! Their service goes above and BEYOND BEYOBD BEYOND“

“Delicious food with several healthy options, unusual for a bar. Attentive, respectful staff. Cool atmosphere, all high top booths, tables, bar tho so not necessarily handicapped friendly (as far as I could tell). Highly recommend.“

“So pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. The food was amazing but the best part was our server Rhonda. She gave amazing suggestions and was a delight. We had the pimento cheese( I had never had before & never would have ordered without her suggestion. We had salads, fries and a bottle of bubbly!“

“What a great breakfast place in Augusta! We got sat right away and the service was amazing. Our waitress was very nice and the food came out very quickly. The food was outstanding! Everything we ordered was really good. My favorite was the Caribbean pancakes. A must have if you love pancakes! If you get an omelet I would order the Patty O’ Sullivan. Their corn beef hash is really good with the omelet. The prices were very reasonable as well. Must try if you are in the area.“

“Sharon and staff are Awesome and the food is wonderful!!! I visit At Your Service Gourmet Cafe at least 2 times a month. Most of the time I dine in. Very comfortable seating. Sharon and staff make the Jim Hudson Brand Better!!!!“

“This place was the one place that made my family very happy. The professionalism they carry and the food is really really good. They even put out food in separate bags. my family of 6 can’t wait to go back tomorrow. Lol highly recommend.“

“Brett and his staff did an outstanding job accommodating our daughter’s high school prom dinner. 18 kids is a lot to manage. That makes it easy to decide where our son’s group will celebrate next year. Thanks for all your help Top Dawg Tavern. - Matt Morrison“

“Beck's was outstanding. The food was fresh, flavorful, and expertly prepared, with generous portions and quality ingredients. The friendly, attentive staff made us feel welcome, and the relaxed atmosphere made the meal even better. A great local spot that we'll definitely visit again.“

“Excellent food quality and taste on the buffet or menu. Extremely good service! The Wednesday Luncheon Social Club has approved Ruth’s as our home restaurant because we feel like family there! We’ll see ya there on Wednesdays!“

“Great people and we really enjoyed everything“

“My first time going, and the customer service was amazing. The atmosphere was spot on. I got the French toast with cheese grits. I'm from the south so when you somewhere you expect the cheese grits to be blah... BUT NO.. Their cheese grits had so much flavor they were amazing. And the French toast was soft and moist even after the butter has been sitting on it for a second. 10/10 highly recommend. Best breakfast ever😋🥰🩷🫶🏾“

“Made the drive west on I20 for the sole purpose of lunch at S&S Augusta. Great food and service. Never disappoints. Great dining room service by their Mr. Beasley.“

“Good soul food with great prices“

“I highly recommend Ikonz Sportsbar & Grill for many reasons. Some of the best talent in comedy & music performs there regularly. The management and staff always friendly and like family. I always feel right at home and welcome every time I am there. Come out and see for yourself the next event!“

“If Augusta had a town anthem, I’m convinced it would be sung over a plate of kimchi wings and a pint at Finch and Fifth. Let’s start with the basics. The food is consistently phenomenal. I’m talking close-your-eyes-and-hum-with-joy kind of phenomenal. Whether it’s the kimchi wings, those crispy little love letters to flavor, or that poutine with andouille sausage and beef (which honestly deserves its own zip code), every bite feels like the chef whispered, “This one’s for you,” before sending it out. Service? Top notch. Finch and Fifth doesn’t just offer curbside service, they offer to-curb service. Somehow, they know when you’ve pulled up and have your order ready before you’ve finished putting the car in park. It’s like they’ve tapped into the Holy Spirit of hospitality. Speaking of spirits, Jesus and JC are the kind of bartenders who make you feel like the Cheers theme song was written just for them. They remember your drink, your story, and probably your cousin’s favorite bourbon too. When they see me pull up, the glass is already frosted and waiting, like divine intervention but with better ice cubes. The management runs the place like a symphony, every plate, every pour, every smile hits its note just right. And the waitstaff? They don’t just work with each other, they move like a well-rehearsed dance troupe of kindness and efficiency. They treat everyone like family, the good kind of family, not the one that argues over Monopoly at Thanksgiving. Finch and Fifth isn’t just a restaurant. It’s an experience. It’s where the food has soul, the drinks have personality, and the people have heart. So if you ever find yourself in Augusta wondering where to eat, do yourself a favor. Go to Finch and Fifth. Order the kimchi wings or the poutine. Let Jesus or JC hand you your drink. And when you leave, you’ll understand why the locals don’t just eat there, they belong there.“

“My favorite brunch spot!!!! The energy & music is always right. Our server Jerry always takes great care of us and is the absolute best!
During the week we come for Music Trivia and always have a blast!!
Food is 10/10 - my favorite are the Mac & Cheese bites.“

“Hidden gem alert! Knuckle Sandwiches is hands-down serving up the best sandwiches in Augusta. It’s a small spot, but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for in flavor. Every sandwich I've tried has been packed with fresh ingredients, bold combinations, and serious creativity. Service is fast, the vibe is laid-back, and you can tell they care about what they’re doing. If you’re tired of the same old deli routine, this place will blow your mind. A must-try!“

“Shelley at Red Lobster on Washington Road provided exceptional service from start to finish. She was prompt, friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to help me find the most economical option for the meal selections I wanted. Her regular check-ins and genuine hospitality made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Combined with the delicious, succulent crab legs, her outstanding customer service truly stood out. I look forward to dining with her again and highly recommend requesting her if you visit.“

“I usually pick any location with a drive thru when choosing a breakfast location in the mornings. About 2 months ago I decided to try something different and ended up at this Waffle House and was blessed to meet Ms. Keri. I have been pulling up almost every morning Mon-Fri. She even remembers what I order now. Her customer service as well as the cook that is usually there with her is superb! My new favorite location.“

“I was in town a few days for a funeral. I ate here twice in a week. The food was amazing. The chicken tenders are hand battered in house. They cakes with fresh hot fries and the ranch was THE BOMB! The $9.99 lunch menu makes lunch very affordable and a gives a chance to take a break from fast food. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I will be returning here when I return to Augusta!😊“

“The food was great!!! Everything came out fresh and hot, and you can tell they actually care about what they’re putting on the table.
The vibe is relaxed and lively without being overwhelming. The music was smooth and staff was cool, quick, and on top of everything without hovering. Overall, just a great spot to catch a vibe , grab good food, and hang out. Definitely enjoyed myself and will be back !!!“

“The last time I was in there their health grade was 88.. I know they can raise that up and get to 95.. they are a wonderful staff.. and their food is extremely good..🩷 the last time I was in there I had no idea that Phillip had passed away.💔“

“I recently hosted a lunch gathering for military members at R and R Bar and Grill, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The food was truly outstanding, showcasing a diverse menu that catered to all tastes. From juicy burgers to fresh salads and hearty sandwiches, everything was made with quality ingredients and cooked to perfection. The service was exceptional; the staff was friendly, attentive, and accommodating, ensuring that our large group was well taken care of throughout the meal. It’s clear that the ownership prioritizes customer satisfaction, creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and valued. After our fantastic lunch, we returned in the evening for karaoke, which was a blast! The lively atmosphere kept everyone entertained, and it was an excellent way to unwind and enjoy each other's company. The sound system was top-notch, and there were plenty of song choices to keep the night going. Overall, R and R Bar and Grill is a fantastic spot for any gathering, whether it's lunch or an evening out. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a fun atmosphere!“

“I've been here over an hour and seen these amazing people take care of everyone!. Teamwork in this location is amazing! Let's see what the next shift brings for Actual breakfast!“

“I can not say enough about our dining experience! We have a Louisiana background and I chose the French Market Grille as my birthday venue although skeptical. Every dish was authentic and mouth watering! Our Non-cajun creole friends were blown away and there wasn’t a drop left anywhere! Customer Service and reservation requests for large group were on point! But our absolute highlight of the night was our waiter Dez (maybe not spelled right) but he definitely attended to our every need! The Landry’s“

“I went there for the first time today and I got the Salmon with potatoes, OMG, it was absolutely delicious, best I have had. The staff was professional and kind and made sure to check on us several times. If I could give them 100 stars I would!“

“We went on a Monday night and it wasn't crowded at all. It still took a little bit for our food to arrive since they were short staffed but I'm glad the food was hot when we finally received it. Everything was delicious! Someone was always checking in on us which I appreciate. The food was really good. The cheesecake was the best part. It was really rich with a HUGE marshmallow topping. It definitely reminded me of the Cheesecake Factory. Their Christmas decorations were a nice touch as well. I give it 4/5 stars. The only disappointment to knock down a star was that some of the games were broken and most of the balls were missing from the hippo game. That was one of our favorites. Ultimately, I enjoyed my experience and will definitely be coming back for the cheesecake!“

“We had my hubby’s 50th birthday party here ! So accommodating! Food was fresh and service was excellent . We had a party of over 50! Thank you all so much!“

“Rich dishes and fresh ingredients“

“One of my favorite places ever down here. I don’t drink much like I used to, but the prices of the non-alcoholic drinks alone, the cheap “basic drinks” and yummy drink specials make this worth a visit. Always a good time to go with friends, make new friends, and become more outgoing. If you’re an alternative person living here, it’s a must. 🩷“

“Great place to hang out, shoot pool, have great food(literally everything), a cold beer, and friendly staff. The regulars aren't too bad either.😊🤣“

“food good people friendly“

“I really love coming here. Always a GOOD time!“

“Shrimp salad was amazing Chicken Alfredo amazing Crab Cakes amazing as well Drinks Amoretto sour Blueberry margaritas Love the the food service all around 10“

“Come see me at bar again starting Monday the 20 th of October 2025“

“Best Waffle House in Augusta, Ga. Gordon Hwy. Friendly staff always great food every time. 😋😋😋“

“It’s the dfac, I’d say you get what you pay for but as a soldier it’s already paid for, food is mid but nutritious and you can find a way to mix the stuff they got together o keep things interesting enough to save your money by eating here“

“Fried chicken Mac and cheese and biscuits all absolutely THE best! Way above Cracker Barrel or any fried chicken place - I can tell ALL of the vegetables are amazing - we have nothing like this in Douglasville -“

“The hash browns were over cooked but I know what the new cook was doing. He was trying to keep everything hot until the chicken cooked so it would all be hot when he put it on the plate. The manager made me some new ones so the meal turned out good.“
