“Best seafood in town it so good try it you will love it .“

“Billy’s Let’s Eat Review of 3rd & Cherry on November 1st, 2025 As I have been trying to write this review for several days now, I think it’s one of the harder ones I have written. Let me explain. Our neighbors and I decided that we wanted to go out on the town and have a really amazing meal, not just to eat, we wanted to “dine”. We chose 3rd & Cherry. We went on a Saturday night so we made reservations as suggested. We were greeted and seated by Eddie (Turns out, he’s the owner) and our server was Isiah. Both of them were welcoming and immediately let us know we were in for an evening. This wasn’t just a simple dinner, this was a dining experience. Exactly what we were looking for. Here’s where it’s been difficult for me to write about. This is the portion that I usually give “the vibe” about the restaurant. With 3rd & Cherry, it’s nearly impossible! The “vibe” is anything you want it to be. It’s all over the place. The ambiance is contemporary but we quickly realized, this can be anything you want it to be. Date night? A place to celebrate a graduation? A wedding rehearsal dinner? Business meeting? Girls night out? The vibe offers endless possibilities. As far as the menu goes, they have something for everyone! Steak, Seafood, Traditional Puerto Rican, Italian and salads and so much more. It’s impossible for me to pinpoint exactly what the menu theme is. And honestly, I am here for it. I absolutely LOVED how their menu is all over the place, yet somehow, some way, it comes together in a perfect culinary delight. The Owner, Eddie, is from Puerto Rico. My partner is also from Puerto Rico. Needless to say, they immediately bonded and were able to speak in their native language, furthering the feeling of “home” at 3rd & Cherry. Now, let’s get into the food! And before you judge with how much we ordered, there were five of us and we were starving. LOL What We Ordered: Appetizers Fried Cheese = $12 This was a beautifully lightly fried white cheese served with a sweet Guava sauce. Pork Belly = $13 This pork belly was fried and served with a cherry gastrique (By the way, a gastrique is a really fancy way of saying sweet and sour sauce) which was amazing. Caesar Salad = $17 Ok, and here’s another part of this review that has been difficult for me. The Caesar Salad. Folks, I’ve had a lot of Caesar Salads in my lifetime. THIS one was by the far the best I have ever had. They make the dressing and croutons in house and it’s served on Romaine Lettuce with freshly shaved parmesan. I have had dreams about this salad every day since we ate there. It’s one of those salads that would make the perfect lunch. (Sidenote, they ARE open for lunch on Saturday and Sunday, otherwise you can have a late lunch the rest of the week as they open at 2PM) Sides Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes = $5 And here we are, yet another difficult part. I am Irish which basically means, nobody’s mashed potatoes are half as good as mine because, well, I’m Irish and that’s what we do. Except… these were the creamiest mashed potatoes - ever. They are so much better than my own that I felt I’ve failed as an Irish cook. Arroz con Gandules = $4 Yet again, another difficult part. My partner is Puerto Rican and as you can imagine, Arroz con Gandules (Rice and Beans) are a staple to Puerto Ricans. This made us feel like we were back on the island eating at our favorite restaurant listening to Bad Bunny. As the Puerto Ricans say whenever they’re happy, WEPA! Sweet Plantains = $4 A Plantain is like a banana but heartier. They’re served fried in butter and they’re a perfect light side that goes with everything we ordered. Lyonnaise Potatoes = $5 These thinly sliced potatoes are baked with caramelized onions and butter and they were just as amazing as they sound. This is a hefty tasting side dish. Parmesan Risotto = $6 The Riscotto was thick and creamy and definitely was a hit! The cook on this was perfection and Riscotto is only good if it’s cooked correctly. Mains Liam's Chicken = $26 A juicy fried chicken breast served up with “

“The food was absolutely amazing! Our waitress Tanjay was very sweet and attentive. I've never been to a Carrabba's, so I wasn't sure what I would be getting, but I'm glad to have gone. Trendy yet comforting atmosphere, excellent food (I'm in love with the bread, with oil 😋), and outstanding service from the kitchen to the table. After a hard days work the ambiance of this restaurant definitely hit the spot. Thank you guys!“

“It was a girls night out, so we went to the Kudzu/Rooftop, first time……..Awesome night, atmosphere was great and the band One Love was amazing. My food was really good/fried grouper. I’m not a drinker so I have water. $13.49 Here were it went down for me, I paid with a card so the bartender D decided to tip himself $11.51 totally unprofessional. My two friends paid cash. Guys please check your receipts and bank statement for unauthorized tip that’s especially unreasonable. Bartender D *, restaurant ****“

“Celebrated our anniversary at Natalia‘s spring wine tasting dinner last night. I’ve been to several, but last night’s far exceeded the others. The outdoor dining area looked fabulous, the wait staff was exceptional, the wine was perfectly paired, the guest speaker was delightful, but the food was the star of the show. Every course was different, each a taste of Italy, simply prepared but complex flavors, and incredibly enjoyable. I highly recommend!!“

“10/10 I really enjoyed my food and service. Everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned. So good 👍“

“First time visiting this establishment. The food was good. Chicken wasn't cooked hard. This fish was falling apart cause it was soft and moist. The shrimp went so quick I should have order more and the fries were good. All of it was sprinkled with that signature seasoning dust which I haven't figured out what's all in it. Now the dessert were decent. Frosting on the cakes wasn't to sweet. Sorta like if you take frosting and mix it with cool whip. The strawberry cake was my favorite of the cakes I got. The red velvet was a disappointment though. It was kinda heavy for my liking. The banana pudding was my second favorite dessert.“

“Had a wonderful Mother's Day eve dinner here for the first time. Absolutely amazing! Great service. Everyone loved their meal and portions were huge! Highly recommend. We will definitely be back!“

“Atmosphere wasn't of my concern because I didn't eat in the restaurant. However, the wings were really good. We crushed those wings! It also was my 1st time eating there. Shout out to them giving a free slice of Cheesecake for her 90th birthday.“

“They have the absolute best chicken wings in Macon.“

“Me and my grandbabies sat down and had 10 piece wings special combo and I had the fish and shrimp with rice, shrimp fried rice and boy. It has been good. I was able to feed three grandbabies and myself for right at $30 and we all got sodas, the lady that’s here. She gave me plates and extra cups and we were able to inside“

“They have the absolute best chicken wings in Macon.“

“Hands down, their wings are the best!! I also had the whiting fish sandwich, which was nice looking, could use a lil more seasoning, but their tartar sauce is tasty and helps the slight blandness of the seasoning. The cashier was very nice. Service was fast and food nice and hot plus appealing. The inside is very clean and quiet when it's not busy.“

“Iwaa the only vehicle at the drive thru. The drive thru wait was extremely long. No one acknowledged me so I said hello and the the person inside stated she will take my order soon. I ordered Gumbo and was told they no longer sell Gumbo so I ordered something else and the very next day I called to see if they had any Gumbo and the did. I purchased two large sizes.“

“10/10 great service from Dontae and the cook every thing cooked fresh best food I’ve since I’ve moved to Macon“
