We had a great first experience at First Watch! I ordered the Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash and…read morereally enjoyed it next time I'd just go with over-easy eggs instead of medium. My son got a kids meal and finished everything except his toast, which is always a win. My husband tried the smoked salmon Benedict (I sampled it lol) and it was delicious the only thing we weren't sure about was whether it's meant to be served cold or hot, since it came out cold. We were in a bit of a rush, so we didn't get a chance to ask. The servers weren't overly friendly, but they were efficient and got the job done. The restaurant itself was very clean and felt super family friendly. We'll definitely be back!

Ain't no way this place deserves five stars! I came here after hearing all the great reviews and…read moreseeing how packed it was, so I figured the food must really be that good. Well... either people in Georgia have different taste buds than I do, or I need to stop listening to these reviews and go see for myself. The breakfast I had was freaking awful. That's really all I'm going to say. Don't always listen to what people are saying--go try the place for yourself and make your own judgment. As for me, I'll never be back again

So for my 28th, I kept it simple. I decided on Scrambles for brunch and no regrets…read more Started with six whole wings. Crispy, hot, and seasoned like someone in the back really cares. Not greasy, perfectly cooked. Strawberry French toast that was stuffed with a strawberry cream cheese. It was giving dessert disguised as breakfast. Thick-cut toast, warm strawberries and a drizzle that didn't drown it; basically a balanced and soft with a little crisp on the edges. The vibe gave chill. Light music, natural light coming through the windows, not too packed. Absolutely loved how vlog friendly it was, if anything encouraged. Thank you to our server Star, so kind and welcoming. Honestly, a good way to mark 28.

Overall The food and service were great! We were greeted…read morepromptly at the door and quickly shown to a table. The table selection was comfortable. It wasn't very busy during our weekday visit. Arrival & Order taking: We were welcomed table-side by Lisa who seemed to be the heart of the restaurant. Besides a cook I saw come out of the kitchen, she was running everything. We were one of two tables occupied at the time. Lisa greeted, seated, joked, took drink orders (QUICKLY), food orders and bust down the bar orders with precision. SHE EVEN SANG HBD to a patron table-side. She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered suggestions. She offered specials or starters I like that she shared that we could order things ala carte. Food: Our food arrived in good time. Freshly cooked and well prepared. My husband had fried shrimp and cheese grits with a side of scrambled eggs. I had fried pork chops, Cheese grits, fried eggs and a piece of catfish aka carte. EVERYTHING SLAPPED! I am a fried fish LOVER but that pork chop turned me out‼ I loved that the batter for the fish and pork chop were DIFFERENT! I thought it was going to be the same taste. I WAS NOT! loved it. The grits were very good. I requested cheese be added to mine. Since it did not come with my dish. The grated bits on the top could have been excluded. It was delish without the distraction. It added no value. My egg was fried HARD the way I asked. My husband's eggs were scrambled soft the way he likes it. The shrimp and grits were awesome! I would love to try the grilled or sautéed shrimp. Ambience The look inside is not real fancy but it's big open and airy. I can appreciate that for busy times. Coming from NY, they would pile in many more tables. The TVs were adequately placed on the wall for viewing from many angles. The music had us swaying while we ate. Great local place. We absolutely LOVE that we didn't have to go far and somebody in the kitchen KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE DOING! This was a relief from another local place that just dragged us waiting to eat. Three days later we're heading back with a table for 8 during a busier time. We'll get back on that experience later. For this upcoming visit, I tried two days in a row to book a reservation through the website and Yelp and I called. NO SUCH THING! It never happened. For a party of 8 I think a reservation is necessary and walking in shouldn't be an option. WE'LL SEE!!!

Gritz is one of those restaurants filled with great memories of family and friends made throughout…read moreour visits. We used to have family in the area, but unfortunately haven't been down here in 5 years as a result of them not being in the area anymore. When we used to stop in, the service was unbeatable. Everyone would treat you like family, and would get you your food fast. Now, since the restaurant is under ***new ownership***, we are not sure if that is still the case. Our server was great (she remembered our family even after 5 years (connected the dots to us)), but the rest of the employees and the community within the restaurant felt a bit stuffy. They used to have the best coffee. It is still good now, but something changed (not quite as good). Their pancakes are unfortunately rubbery, but contrastively, they have great bacon; crisp with a bit of fat, that's how we like it. Their hash browns have not changed one bit. They are still crispy!! Some stuff has changed in the atmosphere of the restaurant. They generally have the same theme, but some of the signs have changed. If you get lucky, you may get to eat your food with Shaquille O'Neal in the restaurant! He lives in the area, and comes in every now and then to get some food and pay for everybody's meal. What a great guy!

I've been here a few times myself, and my father is a true regular--here every single week--and there's a reason he keeps coming back. We've tried just about everything on the menu, and every dish has that unmistakable Southern comfort feel.

The service is consistently friendly, too. No matter how busy it gets, the staff treats you like family--warm greetings, genuine conversations, and the kind of hospitality that makes you want to return before you've even left.

I just picked up my order from Fat Boiz in McDonough, and I have to say I'm extremely disappointed…read morewith the pasta I received. The pasta is very watery, to the point that there's liquid sitting throughout the container. This is not what I expected at all, especially when I'm paying for a quality meal. I understand restaurants can have an off night, but this is honestly unacceptable to serve to a customer. I shouldn't have to drain water out of my pasta before I can even attempt to eat it. I'd appreciate it if someone could make this right, whether that means remaking the order properly or issuing a refund. I'm not trying to be difficult--I just expect the food I paid for to be prepared and served properly.

Now where should I begin with this treacherous place? Amongst my family we consider local breakfast…read morespots as a rendezvous of sorts not just for the enjoyment of food but--to enjoy our connections. Our time of arrival was around 10:40-10:50 am and the time of we had left was 12:04. Of course socializing with family takes a large portion of this time but the comparable difference from the socialization to the waiting truly felt like it was interminable. In my opinion the place was slightly above average of what it cookie hold: my family (table of 7), around 30 people including us, 5 waiters, 1 cleaner, and from what I saw 2 chefs. I had ordered 4 sausages with scrambled eggs and crepes with cream cheese; I would say I hate cream cheese and that was an error made by me but other than that the food truly was splendid. I had ordered another portion of crepes (emphasized with Nutella instead of cream cheese this time.) I had done this due to the portion sizes: be aware the portions may be small for someone with a big appetite. I had waited 30 minutes for 2 small crepes I would say the size of my hand. While waiting I observed my area, multiple people sitting alone and no group was larger than 4 besides us; however, every group was waiting longer than we had as well. I find it truly absurd the service was truly lacking in chefs. I personally would not come back here due to small portions, inadequate service, and a fluctuating amount of people walking in and out ruining service time.

It was packed with flavor and served with a generous side of homemade guacamole. We also tried the steak quesadilla, which was filled with steak, onions, and peppers--absolutely delicious. This was actually my second breakfast visit, and the experience was outstanding once again. The service is excellent, and the food is consistently delicious. I ordered the Dutch Baby both times because it's that good! My husband enjoyed his skillet meal, and the grandchildren loved their freshly made chicken tenders. My grandson also raved about the mini pancakes and French fries. Whether you visit for breakfast or lunch, the food is amazing. Combined with the friendly service and attention to detail, this is a place we will definitely keep coming back to!
