    What I ordered...
    Annesia D.

    This place is unacceptable. I placed my order. Since it was close to closing they only provided me with my options. I should have drove away. The only thing correct about my order was the soda. See images

    the wrong thing on the fucking ticket
    Mdot M.

    PISSED!! went in drive thru, ordered ONION RINGS with my tray and got hush puppies. look at the ticket and the cashier even rung it up wrong. there is NO phone number to call and I can't turn around bc I have to go back to work! I need this fixed ASAP!! I need a manager front this location to contact me for a comped meal or my money back. bc if i have to go back up there, it's gonna be a problem. with TWO people taking orders and running the drive thru, my order should be correct.

    They will charge you extra for your food and not provide a receipt. Just go to McDonald's or something

I opted for their regular Grindhouse burger that had caramelized onions mixed in with the double patties and cheese. It was sloppy, but delicious. Their crinkle fries come out crispy as well, no soggies! Got a side of cheese sauce for dipping and it had a little kick that I liked. The interior is small so seating is limited.

Great service even for takeout. Lady was upset sweet and gave us suggestions also didn't rush us. Cute and casual vibe. Mocha milkshake - 8/10 a little too sweet for me and wished it was more coffee flavor but solid Frings- I wish they gave us more it was just a couple of each but sweet potato fries were 10/10 AMAZING. O-rings were a lil under seasoned but 7/10 Cheesy puffs- very interesting texture. Wish it was a bit spicier but have t had something like this. Would have also appreciated more crunch. Great with chipotle ranch. LOVE 9/10 Turkey burger lettuce wrapped - this was so funny! I go pretty much a whole half head of lettuce. Great flavor even without the cheese. 8/10 Brussel sprouts - good flavor but a little burnt. Love the glaze a bit greasy tho 8/10

    Great experience all around. From the moment we sat down, the service was outstanding -- friendly,…read moreattentive, and genuinely welcoming without being overbearing. That kind of hospitality always elevates a meal. The onion rings were the absolute star. Perfectly crisp and golden on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned just right. Easily some of the best I've had and worth ordering every time. The burgers were solid and cooked as ordered, and the buns deserve special mention -- super soft, fresh, and a great complement to the patties without falling apart. The pimento cheese, however, was a bit underwhelming and didn't quite deliver the flavor punch I was expecting. Overall, excellent service, standout onion rings, and good burgers make this a place I'd happily return to.

    Outdoor seating on a beautiful day with good service were big pluses…read more But the Italian beef was not an authentic version that I had hoped for. Yes, one may put cheese on the Italian beef, but then it automatically is not "authentic" because it becomes a crossover then. This is not to be a French dip sandwich or a Philly cheesesteak. It's the Chicago Italian beef which is supposed to have four components that must all work together: thin sliced roast beef, the au jus, hard roll/bun, giardiniera. That's it. I thought the sandwich was good, but just not authentic. The beef was a little thicker cut but ample quantity. The giardiniera was plenty hot but scant, so they did promptly bring a side portion for me, the au Jus didn't have the same spice mixture and was more of a French dip than the spicier Italian beef and usually I get mine dunked, so this was just a side dip, but off the flavor of IB. I think the cheese used was Havarti, which is interesting, even though it's not supposed to be there, one would have expected provolone or mozzarella. I also had a couple of onion rings, very heavily breaded, cooked to perfection but tasted like fried chicken more than onion ring. This is not a negative review since the food was good and price/value was also good, it's just that neither item was "authentic" to the original target. I would eat here again in a heartbeat and most definitely order a burger because that is their thing.

    An easy five stars. Emmy Squared Pizza serves what is probably the best pizza to be had in Athens…read more It's really good. We started with the shaved Brussel Sprout salad. It's generously portioned, and it's more than enough for two. Pizza wise, we got the "Meatsiah" consisting of "signature cheese blend, crispy Ezzo pepperoni, house-made Italian sausage, thick-cut Nuke's bacon, [and] tender shaved ribeye." It was amazingly good and some of the best pizza I've had anywhere. I washed mine down with a Creature Comforts Tropicalia as one does. It's a stylish upscale place. Shout out to Piper who provided great, on the ball service. Cheers!

    We had a really disappointing experience here and won't be returning…read more My husband ordered a burger without a bun and made a few simple modifications (no cheese, add bacon and onions). It came out fine, so he ordered a second one--only to have the manager come over after the order was placed to say they were "too busy" to accommodate those same modifications again. Apparently the server "shouldn't have allowed it." That's not just inconsistent, it's poor communication and puts the customer (and server) in an awkward spot for no reason. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich that was honestly one of the driest things I've ever tried to eat. I could barely get through two bites. The fries that came with it left me with pretty bad indigestion later, which is unusual for me. Our daughters ordered pizza, which was fine--but it arrived about 30 minutes after our food, so we weren't even eating together as a family. We also ordered a bottle of prosecco that was barely chilled. We had to ask for an ice bucket just to make it drinkable. Between the food quality, inconsistent service, and overall experience, this was a miss across the board.

    Cafe Racer is clearly a breakfast institution in Athens, especially among University of Georgia…read morestudents. From the moment we arrived, it was obvious this place has built a loyal following. The setup is simple: place your order, grab a seat, and enjoy. What made me laugh was that many of the "tables" are surrounded by lawn chairs. It's not what I expected, but somehow it fits the laid-back personality of the place perfectly. There are a few traditional tables available, but the lawn-chair seating adds to the charm. I ordered the "My Pleasure" biscuit, which comes with fried chicken, egg, and cheese. The chicken was flavorful, and the sandwich was very tasty overall. The chicken was a little dry when combined with the biscuit, but not enough to keep me from enjoying it. It was still a satisfying breakfast and easy to see why it's a popular menu item. If you're looking for a quick, casual, and uniquely Athens breakfast experience, Cafe Racer is worth a stop. Good food, reasonable prices, and enough personality to make the meal memorable.

It was good, mostly for the tangy avocado sauce upon it. Second, the tater taco, it was just too much potato and not much else. Ratio was off. Third, and I saved best for last: Pickleback. OMG. YALL. This crazy taco was insanely good. It was "mustard sausage" with a "breakfast sauce" and some dill pickles. When I say it was good... wuh. I'm a foodie, and I was blown away. So tangy, juicy and FULL of flavor. Perfect blend of fatty sausage, mustard, sweet sauce and tangy pickles. I can't say enough about it. They really hit it outta the park. The coffee was good. We will be back, if only for that savage lil taco. Yes, service was polite and efficient. Despite a double line of cars that would make Chik-fil-A jealous. We went to the window and they had old timey style beach chairs. Wife and daughter didn't want to eat there, so back to the Air-B-n-B.
