A favorite casual, friendly place to get tasty sandwiches and salads …read more Food: we like several of their sandwiches, including roast beef sandwich, their chicken sandwiches, and their Reuben. My favorite, the Reuben, comes with sauerkraut, but I like mine better with coleslaw so I usually have the sauerkraut on the side, and order the coleslaw raw a side for the sandwich. Their sides, including their coleslaw are all very tasty. My friend likes their black beans. They have a new menu with large sandwiches for $20. Service : service is always excellent -efficient and friendly. . They are server, Sawyer, kept our iced tea glasses full, and helped us choose from the new items on the menu. Location is very convenient, fairly close to downtown and also near major roads. Facility: the restaurant is clean and light and comfortable. The bathrooms are clean bright. There's plenty of free parking at the site. There is outdoor seating for nice weather.

My husband and I stopped in today for lunch and it was delicious. We both started with a cup of…read moresoup. He had a bean with ham and I had their famous potato. Both were very good. The potato was more lukewarm instead of hot the bean with ham was piping hot. My husband ordered the Kona chicken with French Fries. The chicken was actually slightly pink in the middle. He did not notice until I started cutting up his leftovers for our pup. I ordered the chicken tender salad with the house dressing. It was very delicious. It usually comes with a vinaigrette dressing. Ask for the house, you will not be sad. I order it on the side and mix it myself. Side note- For ADA patrons- On the parking signs Raffertys includes their phone number if you need help. That is very cool. The food here is very good except for the two things I mentioned above. It is well worth a visit.

I truly wanted NOT to believe the bad reviews I'd read--especially on other platforms--because I…read moreprefer local/independent restaurants and try to support them whenever I can. But wow. Even with lowered expectations, I didn't expect it to be THIS bad. SERVICE: Unfortunately, the reputation for slow and inattentive service was warranted. We waited almost 10 minutes just to place our order, then another half hour for the food to arrive, on a morning that wasn't particularly busy. Nobody checked on us after the food was served or asked how anything was--not even after clearing a plate of mostly untouched food. My meal was also served without the eggs that were supposed to come with it. I had to ask where they were, and when they finally arrived, they were poached instead of the scrambled eggs I'd ordered. FOOD: This was one of the very few times in my life when I genuinely could not eat a restaurant meal. I took maybe two bites of each part of the dish before pushing it away. Nearly everything ranged from bad to inedible. * Hash browns: Cold, despite my requesting them well done. They had an extremely strange flavor and texture--soft and almost oatmeal-like rather than browned or crisp. * Country-fried steak: Also cold. Greasy enough that I could see oil pooling in the gravy, which may have been made even worse by the food being served cold. The coating and gravy had an unpleasant acidic/sweet taste, and the texture of the steak was oddly more like chicken than cube steak. PRICE: At or near the top end of what I'd expect to pay for this type of food, which would have been difficult to justify even if the service and quality had been exceptional. Given what we were actually served, it was especially hard to swallow. I really did want to like this place. Unfortunately, between the service, the incorrect order, the cold food, and food I simply couldn't eat, this was an exceptionally disappointing experience.

Such a shame, we have been fans of Brett's pretty much since they first opened their original…read morelocation. It was our go to restaurant and even though they would go through ups and downs with quality we would always give them another shot and they would redeem themselves. Then we started seeing a big decrease in quality in the last year and hoped it was just because of the divided focus while they built the new location. So when they cut the hours back at the original location we made the drive to the new space to try it out. Unfortunately, it was the same low quality overpriced food that was nothing like the food they used to serve. The salads were skimpy with questionably aged lettuce, and the steak was flavorless and 30% gristle. We were going to give them the benefit of the doubt and return at a later date until we saw that they're also hosting a political event for Houston Gaines with special guest Jim Jordan. For a restaurant to choose to so blatantly parade their political leanings in this day and age makes it clear to me that they don't have any interest in serving any non-maga customers they might've relied on at their original location in Athens, and as such we will not be giving them another chance at winning our business.

The restaurant stays very busy, so best to get there early or go during off-times to avoid a long wait.

As far as the food goes the recipe for the shrimp and grits definitely could use a little tweakIng however the waffle was amazing with the home made maple syrup.

The menu is very limited so you may want to check it out before going. They also had a live band on this particular Sunday, if you are in the Athens area, you should definitely check them out.

Max took amazing care of us and made sure he went above and beyond to make sure that we were well taken care of. Ambiance: the air is very energetic on a Saturday when it's game day. It's definitely a good place to be. Food: lots of flavors and the drinks were very good. Not watered down or too much. They were just right. Please keep in mind that the reason why they call us five is because there is only five menu items for appetizers and for entrées . Therefore, there is a limited selection.

Very tasty new addition to the Athens community!…read more If you've been to Ted's Montana before, you know what to expect - if not, it's a step up from casual dining, but thankfully more casual and affordable than a bougie steakhouse. Their specialty is definitely bison. I've had the bison burger before, which is one of my favorites. This time I went with the bison brisket although I think I will skip that in the future, it was good, but I don't think better than the burger (despite being pricier). I think a larger portion would be nice. I would also like to try the buy some meatloaf sometime; it sounds really good. I stuck with the included sides of mashed potatoes and carrots - the carrots were done to perfection and not mushy, which was great, and the mashed potatoes had a delicious gravy and were very clearly made of real potato - I appreciate the quality ingredients here! The cherry lemonade was fantastic, and I would gladly do that again, or have it as an Arnold Palmer. Our server was incredibly attentive and constantly checking on us, which was very nice. The food came out fast, and even with most tables filling up, it never got noisy. We'll happily return again - glad to have a Ted's in the neighborhood!
