    Excellent!!  definitely a hidden gem you must find. Don't let the location next to Goodwill fool you. We will return again soon!

    Excellent restaurant ran by Polly Long Denton School of Hospitality and Culinary Arts. The chefs in training prepare a gourmet meal. Seriously our meal tasted on the level of a finer restaurant. The portions were definitely more than enough. Started with a Butter Bibb Salad with shrimp and a lemon basil green gremolota. The ribeye steaks were at least 16 ounces and quality meat. For me enough leftover for a couple of meals. They were cooked just as requested and very tender. The green beans were blanched and cooked with just the right crisp crunch. Hubby had peach cobbler and ice cream for dessert. I took a bite and it was fabulous! Finding this place was like finding a precious and rare gem. Total bill for 2 people was $38.00. A meal elsewhere of this quality would have cost at least twice this amount. Excellent job! It is located on Eisenhower in the same area of the Goodwill. But don't let that stop you from coming. Decor is beautiful, inviting and very nice jazz playing quietly. Not too loud for a conversation.

    Hidden gem!

    Here for work at the convention center and all the restaurants in the area are all chains and this little gem surpassed my appetite for great food and service. Mark is the host with the most and Chef Gerard didn't disappoint with the pork chop entree I had and steak entree my co worker had. Insanely good and I advise anyone here for business to try it you won't be disappointed!

    My first and only yelp review: Edgar's is Fantastic! It's part of the Helm's Cullinary college which is linked to Goodwill so important social mission in addition to great food. No wait, not crowded, fancy in a kind of elementary way so anything goes. Excellent service and the gnocchi and asparagus fries are amazing although the menu changes!

    Nice small business that sells good home cooking. It's a spot that used to be the Mexican…read morerestaurant in the Ollie plaza. The service was nice and very welcome! The ambiance was warm and comfortable. Any questions I asked they answered me about the food items. They don't have a set menu cause it changes every or other day depending. The girl in the back fixed me and my mom plate really good! The food was delicious and seasoned well. We got our food to go and the plate was heavy plus dessert we had was good! Next time we go back I hope to try they Ox tails.

    Suther'n Folke Kitchen opened just 3 weeks ago. It is located in the same mini mall as Ollie's. It…read moreis a "meat and 2 sides" kind of restaurant where you order at the counter, but you'll definitely want to visit for what is special about it. First, the food is amazing. I ordered all vegetable sides. My meal came with a hoecake, dessert, and a beverage. All for under $11. It's a little more if you get a meat dish, but I don't think it's much more. Let's first talk about the food. Hands down the best mac 'n cheese I've had in Macon. It's creamy and not overly greasy and doesn't feel like it's been sitting for hours in a warming tray. The butter beans were perfectly seasoned with just a hint of smoke flavor, not mushy, not greasy, perfection. The collards were also perfect. It had visible pieces of pork, wasn't overcooked, and the juice was just right - not too salty and not sweet. I'm not much of a dessert person, so probably didn't enjoy the banana pudding as much as most would have, but it was very good. And the best part? You can eat as much as you like! Let me move on to service. My server, and I wish I had asked her name, kindly came to check on me to see if I wanted seconds in anything. Yes, you heard me right! If you're still hungry, they will bring you more of whatever you want. I don't know if that's true of the meats, since I didn't get any, but definitely the sides. My server was the nicest woman. Attentive, but not hovering. She enjoyed hearing how much I liked the food and I really enjoyed our interactions. Every single person there was smiling and kind and I felt like I was having lunch in a friend's dining room. Even the chef, Christine Jackson, stopped by my table to say hello and see how I was doing. Finally, the ambiance. The restaurant itself is bare bones and a little run down, although it's obvious there was care put into it - there are table linens and centerpieces on the tables and the place is clean - they just earned a health score of 95, so no worries there. But this is not fine dining or a place for a dinner date and I absolutely loved the homey vibe. You can always get your meal to go, but then you will miss out on having seconds of that yummy food. We need to support our local businesses! Please show up for Suther'n Folke Kitchen. You'll be glad you did.

He advised that we could sit in the middle or to the right. We chose seats and were greeted by our sever shortly after. We were given menus and our drink order was taken. I asked for recommendations and the server recommended what I was looking at one of the Majn Events 2pc fish & 6 wings. I tried the house wings and the pangasius fish. It was hot, fresh and tasty! I would definitely go back! The seating both booths and bar stools could use some refurbishing most of them are cracked, the restrooms were clean & the staff was friendly! Give Overtyme a try!
