    Tongue thaid kinda small

    Overpriced, slow service, and the outside is filled with gnats. The tongue thaid cocktail is $18 and very small

    This was my first time visiting Chuck's Fish and I was not disappointed. We came on a Friday and there was a wait, but we were able to grab some seats at the bar within 15 minutes. The sever immediately came to wipe down our area and we ordered some drinks. I ordered the Guava Sour since I prefer gin drinks, and my friend ordered the espresso martini. I've heard their Espresso Martinis are really good, so I'll have to try it. Next we ordered appetizers and then our sushi. Everything was delicious and I would love to visit again.

    I got the guava sour, soft-shell crab roll, and tuna poke. Honestly my hopes were high because this is an athens classic but I was a bit disappointed. The drink was fabulous - perfect balance between sweet and tart! I was excited to try the sushi but the soft-shell crab roll was a bit too salty and I wish there were some other flavors. I really enjoyed the poke until I found a small piece of steel in it. Unsure of what it was. The service was great but this is not the place you want to be at if you're starving. After we put in our food order I believe it took them an hour to get our food out but I will say we were in a group of 10. It's a beautiful place as well and very elegant I just wish the food matched.

    Bronzed grouper was good and $40.

    I like Chuck's, used to go to the original in Tuscaloosa all the time. The Athens Chucks is located in the old bus terminal on Broad Street. Had a nice meal my first stop in. Got the "bronzed" gulf fish (grouper) at Market price was $40. It was delicious. I also ordered a rainbow sushi roll. It was just okay. Noticed a lot of patrons were ordering sushi. Try the cooked fish instead!

    This is a good spot. Albeit an expensive spot. I know you're paying for the ambience and the decoration and just getting in there and the location and that adds money to the bottom line. Food is very fresh. The flavors are excellent even the seaweed salad was delicious We had several dishes and started with the calamari it was very flavorful and crispy it tarred like it was dipped in rice flour so it was crunchy but not doughy The dressing over it was delicious We had several roles and a couple of drinks The bill was definitely excessive for the city of Athens - I have heard they do or used to do a happy sushi hour in the past

    Sushi was INCREDIBLE! Came back to Chucks the next time we were visiting Athens and it was equally as good.

    My absolute favorite restaurant in Athens, GA!! It has a friendly atmosphere perfect for a nice meal with friends or a date. The have regular entrees as well as a full sushi menu! For a higher end restaurant, the sushi is a great price. I prefer their entrees over the sushi, but you cannot go wrong either way. I have never had a bad experience here & highly recommend it to everybody! *Parking is downtown athens street parking* Cup of Gulf Seafood Gumbo ($8): 10/10 Not typically a gumbo person because they usually have pork sausage in them which I don't eat, but this one is strictly seafood & veggies! It has the perfect spice level & flavor for the cup & I also love that they serve it with the rice on top & not underneath! Chicken Scaloppine ($25): 10/10 Can't even put into words how much I love this dish. The gnocchi & chicken is cooked to perfection & the cream sauce being the perfect addition. I have ordered this almost every single time I have gone & never been disappointed.

    Now I've always came to Chuck's for their sushi so I decided to switch it up today for my last Chuck's visit before I move out my apartment :( The shrimp and chorizo fettuccine was delicious! Such a filling portion with ample amount of shrimp and fettuccine to go with it. Chuck's all around is such a great restaurant and will definitely be a visit whenever I'm back in town!

    First time here and recommended by a colleague. I was a little concerned about dining out in Athens…read moreduring a busy Saturday afternoon but fortunately the N Chase location is perfectly tucked away, distant enough from the downtown area. I was 3rd in line and pleasantly surprised + pleased. Think Chipotle meets Chopt (the salad bar ). Fresh ingredients. LOTS of mix and match options OR preset menu items. And just as many drink options, including locally made kombucha. I ordered the winter salad and low country plates. With the exception of the turmeric ginger dressing (a little too zesty for me) and the hoppin John salad (hoppin John OR salad ... not both ) EVERYTHING was delicious. I enjoyed the salad way more than I thought I would. The spicy avocado dressing is YUMMY! The greens were cooked to perfection - another shocker. The edamame crunch, tofu and crunchies were just as delicious. I will visit the Atlanta location just to try the fritters! A wonderfully healthy and scrumptious delight !

Flavor however, is lacking. I was underwhelmed. That's the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars. I didn't realize the broccoli would be cold. That also threw me off. It was empty when we arrived and we were served immediately. The environment was a bit stale but only because the place was empty. If you enjoy minimal seasoning, you will love it here. I liked it, but I didn't love it.

I wanted a raw experience, not influenced by others. So I was a bit deflated when we walked in and it was counter-order setup but that's okay. There seemed to be only one person working. She was really nice and helpful but surely busy, which was fine, but as we were leaving the crowd started hitting and I wondered how well she could manage that solo. I could be wrong though, someone may have been in back and I just couldn't see. I ordered the Overhard Egg, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Melted Cheddar, Mayo Waffle with Spiced Tots (nice). Hubby ordered the Super Cluck with Maple Glazed Chicken, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Cheddar, Sriracha Mayo, Sunny-Side Up Egg. Mine was good, his was super yummy, just the right amount of heat and sweetness. Oh! I also gotta mention the REAL Vermont Maple Syrup. That's very much appreciated over corn syrup garbage. Nice touch! We both had regular coffees. I would've liked a decaf option, since I'm a bit intolerant to caffeine but I can drink it. The coffee had good flavor. I think maybe having the creamers in disposable individual ramekins is probably just extra work if not for to-go orders but that's whatever. It's a cool place and I can see why it's popular. The food hits and if I lived closer we'd probably frequent this spot. Worth checking out if you haven't been.

The food: I went with the Fried Chicken Blue Plate. Between the regular and the Nashville Hot, the Nashville was the winner--flavorful and moist without being overwhelming with the spice. Huge shoutout to my server for suggesting the brussel sprouts; that glaze is incredible and they were easily my favorite part of the plate. The mashed sweet potatoes were unique--I'm still debating if I liked them or loved them. The jalapeño cornbread was a bit sweet for my taste but on par with most restaurant cornbread. The mac & cheese wasn't bad, but also didn't do much for me like most restaurant mac & cheese. The cocktail: Do not sleep on Nana's Naissance. I wasn't sure what to expect from the ingredients, but it's like an elevated take on Rumchata. The service: I was seated at the bar and experienced a noticeable delay--a group that arrived well after me almost finished their meal before mine arrived. However, the waitress acknowledged the wait before I even had to mention it and made things right. I really appreciate that kind of proactive service. We're all human, and they handled the situation very professionally.

I selected a side of noodles which were also really tasty, which you can add peanuts to if you'd like but I opted not to.
