    Platter
    Elonia W.

    My daughter wanted to go to Brinks Tavern for her birthday. The atmosphere was great! We loved all the screens with different types of sports playing, and the music that was playing was awesome!! I ordered the million dollar bacon with deviled eggs. The bacon was good, but eggs lacked seasoning. I also ordered the platter with chicken strips, shrimp, French Fries, and hushpuppies, and all of it was delicious, especially the fries. Our server was very attentive and accommodating. The only negative is the food and their alcoholic drinks are way over priced!

    If you don't have a reservation be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes. We sat at the bar which was perfect for 2. The drinks are absolutely amazing. We alway at the bar and the bartender was absolutely amazing. He knew exactly what I should order. We placed our orders and watched all of the great TVs in the establishment. It's a great place to watch the games and the serves and hostesses are fabulous. It's a little loud but that's to be expected. The dress is casual. The food came out quickly and was still hot. The crab hush puppies were absolutely amazing and the jumbo shrimp were seasoned to perfection. I will come again.

    Not a bad place by any means, the inside is nice. 3 Stars is being generous. 2 1/2 maybe. The food is a little fancier than the establishment itself. The brick wall between the front door and the bar is pretty cool, makes for a nice barrier. This was my second visit. Probably my last. A little on the pricey side. I can't get behind a $25 burger. Or a $7 Blue Moon (bottle), when a six pack is only $10 in the store. I mean, they already have Brinkley's Chop House for the rich people, they could make this one a smidge more affordable for the average person. $50 for two people for lunch is a bit ridiculous. A little disappointing. It's definitely not a place to go sit at the bar and watch a game... You'll go broke! Roast Beef Po Boy was good, but the bread was extremely hard. I had a couple bites and waited to eat the rest at home so I could put it in the micro to soften the bread. I had the Chef's Platter second visit, hush puppies had really good flavor, but a little undercooked. Although that dish came with shrimp, I was charged extra for cocktail sauce. That's crazy. The service was OK, a little slow when you're waiting to pay your bill. That's a little frustrating when you're ready to go. Overall, I'd go somewhere else.

    Servers are attentive, food comes out fast and fresh and the outdoor seating has nice views.

    We sat outside. There were fans to assist with the South Carolina heat. TVs in case you wanted to catch a game with friends. And corn hole in case you needed something to do while waiting on your food! We enjoyed the food overall. Fries were thick (usually a thin fry girl, myself) but still pleasant! I LOVE cornbread and I'd happily put on 20 lbs for a good one, but this one made me lose some weight. Not my favorite iteration of the southern classic. Gritty and lacking that usual flavor. Shrimp and sauce on the sammy were good but there was too! Much! Bread! As for my catch all meal -- chicken tenders and shrimp were a delight. Hush puppies: not too shabby. We'd come back again!

    Went during lunch and service was fast! The ambiance was very nice. Leather seats were fancy. The food was very good!

    I came here after seeing they're pretty new, for gameday, and hearing mixed reviews. I asked to be sat by the big screen to watch the game, but like any tavern they have tvs all over and outside. They also have outdoor seating, which is a plus, but also be aware of the very limited parking spots. You might want to park a bit further and walk here. We were sat immediately, ordered drinks, and for food we got the single crab cake with collared greens and the endito poutine (seafood loaded fries rather than actual poutine). Prices are a bit high, but it is a seafood tavern. I liked the flavors of the food, so I do highly recommend something off the menu that's seafood. Their sandwiches also do look good! Service is good, and will take care of you if you decide to stay for an entire game. The vibes are pretty chill, but a lot of people do come here to watch the game so think of it as a chill watch party (unless you come at night maybe...?). Overall, I'd recommend!!!!

    1LB crab legs. The garlic butter sauce was amazing.

    Took my mom out to eat on a Thursday. Service was great. We enjoyed our food. The lighting is a little dim but light on your phone helps.

    If you're looking for a place in North Augusta to question your life choices over bacon from a paper clip and sassy cocktails, Brinks Tavern is it. Walked in for dinner with the girls (just three of us this time, so only slightly less chaos) and left with a new appreciation for good service, strong drinks, and the subtle art of Gypsey Dining. Not sure what that evens means but apparently there are gypsy sightings this side of town. Mallory, our waitress, deserves a medal. She handled our table like it was an Olympic sport, even as we loudly debated the existence or "lack of" soulmates over boudin balls. Five stars just for her patience. Kristen (with an EN) was everywhere at once. I'm convinced she's cloned herself. Need a refill? Kristen. More ranch? Kristen. Existential advice? Kristen, probably. The drinks were so good that even the one made wrong was still amazing. I have no idea what it was supposed to be, but it tasted like "yes, I will have another." Honestly, I'd trust these bartenders to mix my coffee in the morning. Especially the darked hair handsome male: back to referencing the lack of a soulmate and too many cocktails The vibe is "classy tavern meets your favorite college bar, but with less regret and way more repsonsibilty." The food came out hot, the staff treated us like queens, and nobody judged us (at least that I could see) Highly recommend for your next girls' night, awkward first date, or solo mission to drink something neon.

    We were put onto this place through a couple friends and we haven't stopped talking about it since…read more Natta and Angie were so incredibly welcoming and sweet. If you've never been there, they will start you out with samples of all of their lemonade (which all of them are incredibly flavorful) and you'll inevitably get one because it's THAT good. The staff comes with recommendations to help you navigate the menu and they are so attentive and helpful. I'd go as far to say that they had some of the best service in Augusta. Now to the food, 10/10 I could not recommend them enough. I've had the honey lemon pepper wings and the loyalty platter. And it was so good. The honey lemon pepper wings were full of deep flavor and they give you at-least 10 wings with the plate. The steak and shrimp are the best seasoned meats I've ever had at a restaurant. I've also had a few nibbles of their seafood and ‍. Then when you're ready for dessert, don't worry you get samples too. The blue velvet is my favorite but all of them are award winning so you can't go wrong when it comes to Nattas sweet treats. Over all, great experience, great people, and great place. Get out and support local, it'll never disappoint. P.S. if you think it's pricey, you're wrong. You get what you pay for here. You get no less than two meals out of one plate.

    Every Queen needs a King and you can seduce your palete at Kitchen Kings x Natta's Sweet Bakery…read more After hearing amazing things about Kitchen Kings food and their favorable turn out at the Foodie Event, I stopped in and had a Surf N Turf Platter - Honors Platter with perfectly seasoned grilled Salmon & Shrimp over Dirty Rice with Mac N Cheese & Green Beans. The portion sizes are generous and very tasty. I made a Southern Palmer with their Peach Tea and Unsweetened Ice Tea 1/2 & 1/2 of both mixed together, was the perfect beverage to pair with the Honor Platter. I finished the honorable meal with The Strawberry Velvet Cake Brownie & Red Velvet Brownie dessert pairing. The service from when I stepped in, while eating and leaving was exceptional, inviting and very pleasant. Shurell was fabulous, vibrant and a fresh of breath air. I highly recommend Kitchen Kings x Natta's Sweet Bakery to discover Augusta's Hidden Gem off Gordon Hwy. The Ambiance was the perfect R&B Vibe for a casual, sexy Saturday. The music Playlist was the perfect R&B garnish to the entire dining experience. I will be back for their Low Country Boil & the wonderful Strawberry Velvet Cake. Kings Kitchen x Natta's Sweet Bakery will not disappoint you. In fact, it will make ypur day better. Please honor my review and take a taste for yourself today and dine like a King or Queen mixed with sweetness from the Bakery.

The Australian Wagyu filet mignon (see my pick) is top notch. Cook to order (medium) and soft and delicious. The Australian Wagyu tasting it is very good as well!! You use the "lava" stone and you cook it to your own liking. Drink- the cocktail (forgot the name) is like a show stopper! Ambiance- it is fancy and yet, very relax!! I will return :)

    My friend recommended this place, so I checked it out for my birthday dinner and left not only with…read morea full stomach, but an amazing experience. They have a valet system, so no worries about parking. Staff have been very professional and friendly, so 5/5 stars for that. I ordered the 8oz filet mignon, medium rare. Steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly! It came with asparagus and mashed potatoes covered in a crispy layer of batter, which all complimented the steak well. I tried their tuna tartare, which had an interesting take on what the tuna was served on. I've always been used to tuna tartare being accommodated with bread, but this was sushi rice compacted and covered in some light batter. Felt like I was eating tuna sushi. Apply some of the sauces it comes with and seriously was fantastic. I also got to try 4oz of their Japanese A5 Wagyu. Super expensive; $80 dollars for four ounces, but worth the experience. You cook the thin pieces over a hot stone and apply some of the seasonings like salt it comes with. I cooked each side for about 30 seconds, sprinkled some salt, and it melted in my mouth! I ended my meal with their carrot cake and it was moist, not overly sweet, and had a great savory taste. I really enjoyed my time here and certainly will be back again. There is a bar and at the back of the restaurant, you can see the baseball field. Restrooms were clean, but only one stall from what I've seen in the men's room. Overall 5/5 steak house experience.

My husband and father-in-law met us there before we headed downstairs for dinner, and it turned out to be a great spot to relax and unwind. The draft beer was ice cold, and the air conditioning was a welcome break from the Georgia heat. The atmosphere at Drift is laid-back and inviting, with a comfortable mix of conversation and ambient background noise. The Savannah River views are beautiful, and the space features a clean, boho-inspired design that feels both stylish and welcoming. My mother-in-law and I really enjoyed spending time there and even thought it would make a great location for photos. If you're looking for a scenic Savannah riverfront bar with great drinks, a relaxed vibe, and stunning views, service with a smile, Drift Savannah is definitely worth checking out.

The tower itself was really pretty. We also tried many of the small plates (I forgot to photograph the food) that were indeed small and a bit overpriced but everything did taste good. Overall a fun place to hangout and get drinks. Good vibe and ambiance. We got checked on frequently to make sure we got taken care of. Would definitely come again maybe post dinner drinks
