50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Rex

“Well… We were looking for a to-go meal and wanted something close by. As our search went, we came across this Irish Pub, as the name it was under. Looked at the menu and wife saw Pork chops, and some other sides that sounded like a winner.

So, I went to this place, located in Rex, at the Creekside Village shopping center, next to Food Depot.

Turns out that the name was changed to Urban Pub Bar and Grill. I remember seeing it once before and the place was packed in the evening hours. Parking isn’t an issue due to the shopping center lot, so no worries there.

Went in and it is a decent size place. The menu has changed just a bit since it was bought by another party. Still though, we could get most of what I saw of the menu online. Opted for the fried pork chop meal, added a side of fried okra, cabbage, greens and mac n cheese. It comes with 2 sides already with the meal. That was the cabbage and greens. Also added an extra chop too, it comes with just one.

The chops were seasoned just right, and the crunch was tops, and still moist inside. Someone knows how to cook back in that kitchen… The greens were spicy and excellent, and the cabbage was on point too. There was a piece of smoked meat in it and it was tasty… Then the mac n cheese, it was creamy and had a slight crust on top, tasted a few types of cheese in it, I thought one was Smoked Gouda, though I didn’t ask. The okra was also fried just right, crunchy and tender. Overall, it was a hit.

Lunch specials are advertised in the bar but was told that one or more may change soon.

It has a Stage, and pool table area (maybe 4 total), as well as some digital slots in the same area. A juke box too.

A main bar as you enter and plenty of seating. The have bands and Karaoke on certain days too. Car shows they host as well.

I went during the afternoon, so it wasn’t busy at all, but nights seem to be the party time. If the food is this good, then I can be assured that the rest of the menu items are more likely to be a hit.

We’ll be back for those Ribs, wings and fish meals I’ve been peepin…

Parking: Located in a shopping center, plenty of spaces.“

“Chops are cooked awesome 💯💯💯💯😋😋😋🐷🐽🐷“

“This is the best bar on the southside. Manny is the best bartender in my opinion. He always acknowledges you when you come in and makes sure you have a good time. Nick and a few other staff also are good about stepping in to help out it make's your experience great. This bar gives you that home away from home vibe most of us in our 30s look for.“

“Outstanding service with Shemila today! Carafe was made with love and would come back for the customer service alone! Prices were more along the lines of what is expect in Atlanta for more upscale experience but it may be just the economy we’re in as well. Food was good otherwise no complaints. All the employees were pleasant and welcoming.“

“This was our first time to the MacDoungh, GA and it was great! Our home location is an hour away in Kennesaw, Ga.

The ONLY issue is the popularity of the place, which contributes to the long wait times to be seated and the extended time to be serviced at the table.“

“I was a bit nervous to try this being the it’s know for raw fish. I decided to go with the salmon, crab meat and cooked shrimp bowl. When i tell you i’m living myself that i have been working close to this place for over 3 yrs and this is my first bowl . My goodness this was sooooooo gooood. Like dancing in my seat , i want to get another one but i don’t want to be greedy but i don’t care because it was sooooooo gooood yumaaaaaayyy!!!!Lol the they had the nerve to give me this mango aoli sauce that just set the whole bowl off. Now i find myself at work very afraid 👀..That i will be there more than i am here because who thought of this bow of deliciousness and whyyyyyyy am i just finding out about it?? It’s me sitting here already thinking about coming back tomorrow low key debating getting another one for lunch . Wooooooow that was good..shimmy’s down in my chair still smacking my lips and that bowl was devoured over an hour ago 😂😂😂..Ok so yeah go get one let me know which you chose and what you think because chile !!!“

“Stopped on the way down to the beach. Place is phenomenal, great service, great food. Paid 18 dollars for a huge stack filled and a Gatorade. My buddy also paid about 18 and he is blown away saying how great the place is. Check it out if you’re around.“

“Everything is good 👍🏼 it’s hard to choose 💯“

“Give Sarah and the bartender a raise“

“The reviews bragged on this place. I grocery shop outside here often but I never ate here. Nice and large space with plenty seats and fair restrooms. In the morning when I came many people were ordering the smoothies, shakes and natural juices. I was hungrier, I ordered the tacos. Corn and flour soft shell, several meat options, and many toppings with sauces. The price was extremely fair and it was filling.

I can’t say the tacos are in my top 10. It felt like something to eat. These soft shells break fast. The free nachos are good thickness and taste. I almost ordered wings or a burger but at a Mexican spot I typically want to try their tacos and burritos first. This place is necessary at such a large facility where people need something to eat fast with some fresh options and I’m sure this place is very accommodating. It has a farm to table feel but may not be. They all were nice and helpful. For overall price and value, it’s 4.5. I boosted up to a five star for being so accommodating but on the food taste it’s more four-star for sure.“

“Another winner! Bombay Bites in McDonough is fantastic! Great Indian cuisine! Huge menu, tons of options! You can order as mild or as spicy as you like. The naan was spectacular! The 🐐 curry was the G.O.A.T.!“

“Great food great service ? really enjoyed“

“A friend of mine told me about this soul food place. I was very pleased with the meatloaf and greens and mac and cheese! Large portions for the price. Excellent cobblers and homemade cakes. Eat in or carry out.“

“The Rasta Pasta is the best I’ve had ever! The Snapper escovitch is a great choice also. Friendly staff and no long wait time depending.. Overall, highly recommended.“

“Was in ATL and came here for food ..absolutely amazing ribs and pulled pork!! Came here a few times as it was opposite the hotel I was staying in.... excellent friendly service too! Coming back to Atlanta in July, will 100% be coming back here for food!! Highly recommend!“

“We are so excited about this place because we needed a place like this on the Eastside. I recommend everything listed because me, my mom and sister have tired the fish and grits, salmon and sausage (pork and chicken) biscuits, pancakes and waffles, fried chicken, pork chops and etc. Please don’t just take my word for it, go try it for yourself. Let’s keep supporting so we can keep this place around for a very long time.“

“You pretty much can't get lobster tails cooked to perfection, and the seafood family A1“

“First the staff then the ambiance, awesome! I ordered a brown stewed fish and it was done to perfect it felt like i was home in Jamaica. Best Chef this side of heaven!“

“Golden Corral Buffet & Grill (1755 Jonesboro Road, Mcdonough, GA) the best“

“Great food and the salsa is really good too. They have the best customer service. My family loves Los Avina.“

“While in the area we were looking for a local restaurant and not a big chain. Boy we hit the jackpot with Sonny's. The food was amazing. We all ordered something different and taste tested each. Everything was wonderful. The service was amazing. Everyone was so friendly. Would definitely recommend. If your ever in or near Jonesboro, GA.“
