“My husband took me to Olive Garden last night for my birthday because he knows I love to eat there. Wow was it delicious!!! Our server did such a wonderful job so I wanted to give her some recognition. Her name is A'Chelsea and I can't say enough good things about her. Im not exaggerating when I say from start to finish she did an outstanding job at takin care of us! We never had to ask for refills on our drinks, breadsticks, salad, soup, or even our to go boxes! She was so sweet that we wanted to speak to the manager and let him know what a fantastic job she was doing. His name was Jonas and he was very nice as well. He was very attentive and spoke highly of all of his employees and said how important it was that they treated all of the customers there with courtesy. He was very happy to hear that we loved the food and the service that A'Chelsea gave us. We will definitely ask for her when we go back!“

“First time here, out of town and looking for something quick and not fast food. Very close to our hotel, why not give it a try!
Nyla was amazing, very informative, very friendly, and knew the menu extremely well! She shared fan favs and answered all of our questions.
Now for the food... we ordered a Bacon Cheddar Melt with classic carol, a scoop of Barbie Q and grape salad. ALL very tasty. Both chicken salads were smooth and not overly mayonnaised. If the 2 chicken salads, the Barbie Q was our favorite. Grape salad is a must try! Very good with a dessert taste. Kind of a healthier option :)
Good portions for price.“

“Jay, Maya, and Ansley, plus their marvelous manager Dana, always provide an OUTSTANDING experience at this store. CAVA, why don't you allow tips?!?! I can get a good quick meal at alot of places, but i come back to this specific store about 2-3x a week and I tell everyone I know about it mainly because of the stellar service. Jay is quick, and he has a chill demeanor. Maya went the extra mile to ensure i wasn't shorted on toppings. Ansley is the perfect greeter, and she got me hooked on the braised lamb. ? They work extremely well together, which is a reflection on Dana's leadership and the positive culture she's created at this store. Absolute rockstar team!“

“I have been a regular with Mizu Ramen since its opening and let me start by saying: this is the best ramen you will have in Georgia. Plenty of options to choose from, all are creamy, rich, and authentic. My personal favorite is caught between the Tonkotsu Black Ramen and their Tokyo Ramen. And if you're a spice lover like me who's never quite satisfied by some restaurants' designated "hot" spice level, you'll be in for a pleasing treat. Can't recommend it enough, it is a must try in the area for ramen lovers and newbies alike.“

“I have been going to Chili Thai since I was quite literally a baby. It was my favorite place to eat out as a kid, and ever since it moved downtown, it singlehandedly kept me fed, full, and happy all through college. Now, recently graduated and working downtown, I visit often when I need a lunch that I know will leave me satisfied. The staff is wonderful and introduced me to new delicious things on the menu, the restaurant is beautiful, and I am so grateful that the owner decided to reopen its doors. If you want fabulous food, check this place out. I recommend the Pad Thai, the Coconut Chicken Soup (a new favorite of mine) and the Thai Coffee (but only if you have a sweet tooth!).“

“I came through the drive through this morning (a Friday) for an impromptu office breakfast order ... The drive through employees were fantastic in helping me select popular items for a wide range of random people.. So thank you, Marley! but… then I got to the office and we had no cream cheese! GASP! I made a quick call to the store… Michael offered to send someone to deliver them, he offered to meet me at my car in the parking lot… He probably would have offered to met me on Neptune if it would have been more convenient for me… I’ve never had a drive through “order whoopsie” resolution made so quickly, and in such a kind and thoughtful manner… This store was packed, y’all! And they didn’t think even for a second to fix things. Cream cheese isn’t a life or death situation, but nonetheless, My office is very happy!! Thank you, Panera, but thank you particularly Marley and Michael❤️?☕️✅“
