“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.“

“This was a great meal and experience. Food and service were both great. My only reason for knocking it down a star was the timing of our food. My husband ordered a pizza and I ordered a steak. I watched my husband eat and then he got to watch me eat. It would have been nice if our food had been brought out together. Otherwise it was very enjoyable and I would recommend it highly.“

“Tonight was our first night visiting the establishment for comedy night. The service was incredibly friendly and felt inviting. My husband and I got hookah and could customize our flavor. We did not order food, but I want to come back to try it out.I saw the table next to us order a burger and it looked DELICIOUS. As a native of Louisiana, I felt like I was home. The food looked 🔥 the service was immaculate, the daquiris were spot on. I can't ever find a good place that serves daquiris, but this place DELIVERED.“

“I was in the area for St. Patrick's Day weekend, and HAD to check out this place with the fun name. I was hoping to get a tank top or hat, but the merchandise was pretty limited. It was dark and quirky inside like a dive bar should be. We ended up coming back and grabbed a pizza that was surprisingly good. Worth a stop. Skip if you have young kids. Bartenders dress...ummm..for tips? 😉“

“If you're looking for a nostalgia trip inside a bar, check out Ready Player One! This place is a neon-lit dream for anyone who grew up loving the '80s and '90s—or just wishes they had!
The vibe is pure retro magic: old TV commercials on the screens at the bar, neon lights, your favorite old school games (plus some slots as well) and 80s inspired cocktails.

It’s the kind of spot where you can sip a craft cocktail like a cool kid with one hand and crush high scores with the other.

The music takes me back to my favorite middle school dance memories..😂 and when they have a DJ or live band, it’s like your favorite ultimate 90s CD collection.
Whether you're out for a fun date night, catching up with friends, or just reliving your arcade glory days, Ready Player One delivers a nostalgic, high-energy night out that’s hard to beat. We'll definitely be back (probably in leg warmers next time).“

“Hosted a customer dinner here. The location and ambiance was perfect. We started with the Brussels and Frito Misto. Brussels were cooked to perfection and had a great combination of flavors. We equally enjoyed the Frito Misto. For the entree's, I had the pork chop and each of my guests ordered the filet daily special. We each commented on how flavorful our meal was. Both of my guests were not fans of creamed spinach until they ate it here. The grits and gumbo were the perfect accompaniment to the pork chop. The cornbread...chef's kiss! I'm not from the area, but next time I'm in Augusta, Abel Brown will be on the list. I'm a fan!“
