Groucho's Deli located on Broad Street, downtown Augusta…read more Food: What a wonderful deli, if you're into sandwiches and salads, you'll definitely enjoy the establishment!!! We ordered the Apollo Dipper and Ruben. The Ruben was stacked with thinly sliced corn beef on Jewish rye. This sandwich was on point... tender meat and flavorful. The Apollo Dipper was draped in Swiss cheese and full of turkey and ham... hack add bacon. Service: Friendly service with a smile appreciate that energy! Ambiance: Large brick and mortar establishment with plenty of table and booth seating.

We tried the Apollo which had turkey and ham with melted cheese. We split the sandwich and tried the potato salad ( made in house) and tomato soup. They boast special recipe sauces and big rolls. The bread was very soft. Prices reasonable. The Apollo was good but average. Found the sauce to be very sweet. The potato salad is very dill heavy and also sweet . The tomato soup was good with some larger pieces of tomato in it. Overall it was a clean spot with plenty of seating and average food with average prices. Descent spot for a quick bite

Amazing sandwiches.!!! my husband had the club and German potato salad I had the corn beef on rye and the cucumber salad ....... My husband said his was so good. He ate the whole thing in one setting. I was fortunate enough to bring half of mine home for dinner because there's no way I would've been able to eat all that.!!! his potato salad was good and I'm gonna say my cucumbers were OK.... (I compare all cucumber salads to my grandma's so nothing ever matches hers ) the service was awesome.

The Rueben was really tasty, it could do with a bit more meat. The flavors were some of the best I've had and these are my go to sandwiches. Hubby's sandwich tasted great too ( of course we share!) bread was soft and not overpowering. I added Zapp's jalepeno chips but I wish I chose the German potato salad. Hubs had it and it was warm and yummy, bits of corned beef, perfect potatoes in a light non mayo like dressing with caramelized onions. Lose a 5 star for just for the lack of upkeep inside. It was sad to see bolted on cardboard instead of dry wall around the windows. The food is great, please give the place some TLC. Good interactions with the staff.

I did state the the customer service was hit or miss but mostly miss. The food is great however establishment is usually not clean(floors etc and has a weird smell) and the establishment could use pest control. I did however go back to the establishment today and the restaurant was much cleaner and the customer service was much better from the person who took my order to the person who address my concerns about my order. My food was not prepared to their usual standards and the issue was resolved. I have had the black eye sandwich which is a chicken Philly and fries. Both are usually delicious. My mom has had the Thai chili wings which she enjoyed. Their drinks are canned and bottled so be prepared to spend around $2-$3 per drink. Great eats. I'd definitely eat here again.

Yelp nudged us toward New Moon Cafe, and while the signage from the street is minimal enough that we almost walked past it, we eventually found our way inside and were glad we did. At 12:30 on a Saturday the timing worked in our favor. We stepped right up to the counter with no queue at all, placed our order, and settled in. By the time our food arrived about fifteen minutes later, the line had grown to the point where people were waiting nearly that long just to order, which gave the whole place that lively, slightly chaotic weekend energy without ever feeling rushed. Mrs. K chose the smoked salmon bagel, which came out panini pressed, a small twist on a classic that she enjoyed. I am still keeping things keto, so the chef's salad with blue cheese was exactly what I needed, a generous portion that felt balanced and satisfying without pushing me off track. They offer plenty of coffee drinks and smoothie combinations, but we kept things simple and were perfectly happy with our choices. There is outdoor seating if that is your preference, and the whole experience had that relaxed, local charm that makes Augusta lunches feel unhurried even when the dining room is filling up around you.

This place has an excellent menu with breakfast and lunch options and something to suit different needs. I was excited to know they had gluten free bread options. I ordered the honey crunch bagel (peanut butter, Granny Smith apples, honey and granola--no granola for me though) on gluten free. It comes as a gluten free roll. I was shocked by how something so simple was so delicious. I ordered a side of bacon--seemed to be more like the consistency of microwave bacon but I was just grateful to have a protein option outside of eggs. I also ordered a decaf iced caramel latte with coconut milk. Their regular caffeinated iced lattes are made with their cold brew. If you are someone without food allergies, their pastry case looked AMAZING. Highly recommend for breakfast, brunch or lunch!

We were genuinely excited to stop at Hammond Ferry Larder on our long drive home from Surfside…read moreBeach to Montgomery. Between the playground right next door, open outdoor seating, and nearby walking trails, it seemed like the perfect road trip pitstop for our stir-crazy kids (and parents). Bonus: we saw they had drinks and a promising-looking menu. Total win, right? Unfortunately, we rolled in an hour before opening--my fault for not checking the hours. That would've been a disaster since my 4-year-old and I were both doing the "I need to pee" dance, but thankfully, the kind kitchen staff let us in to use the restroom while they prepped. We decided to hang around and wait for them to open, and honestly, the outdoor space made it easy to kill an hour. The kids ran around, we played on the playground, and when a sudden downpour rolled in, we took cover under their patio and even got to play a round of giant Connect 4. By the time 4:00 rolled around, we were wet, hungry, and ready to eat. And then it got awkward. We rushed inside excitedly... only to be met with a trio of staff who looked just as confused by us as we were by the vibe. No one greeted us, no host stand, just a blank stare until someone finally said we could sit anywhere. So we awkwardly claimed a table and tried to shake off the weird energy. Our server came over soon after, and we placed our order. I got the drink special--a gin Paloma--which was fine, nothing remarkable. We started with fried pickles (solid but unmemorable), and then moved on to our mains: cheese pitas for the girls, hot honey chicken sliders with sweet potato fries for me, and fish and chips for my husband. Sadly, things went downhill from there. My chicken sliders were just basic chicken tenders on toasted buns. The goat cheese added a little something, but the hot honey was nowhere to be found. The sweet potato fries were floppy and undercooked. The girls' cheese pita was... well, exactly what the menu said: pita with melted cheese. But it somehow still felt a little sad. The worst offender? The fish and chips. The fish was soggy, and the breading slid off like it was trying to escape the plate. The potato wedges were also undercooked. My husband ended up sending it back and opting for the warm chocolate brownie instead. The brownie was better than the fish--barely--but it was clearly just a microwaved store-bought dessert with a drizzle of syrup. In the end, the best part of our visit wasn't the food--it was the playground, the covered patio, and the generosity of the kitchen staff who let us in before opening. We were grateful for the rest stop, but the restaurant itself fell way short of expectations. for the family-friendly location and outdoor amenities for the kind kitchen staff and covered patio with games Points off for food quality (main dishes and dessert mostly disappointing) for the awkward service vibe at opening for lack of value and underwhelming execution If they improved food execution and tightened up the front-of-house experience, this place could easily be a 4-star gem for families on the go. As it stands, it's a pretty setting with subpar substance.

There are coffee shops designed to make you feel comfortable, and then there are places that simply…read moreare. Buona Caffe is the latter. Sitting along busy Central Avenue, it's actually pretty easy to pass right by if you aren't looking for it. From the outside, it looks like what it is -- an old Augusta bungalow that found a second life as a neighborhood coffeehouse. Walk inside, though, and something happens. Everything slows down. The rooms are small. The furniture doesn't necessarily match. The chairs look like thousands of people have already found their favorite position in them. There's a porch, little tables tucked into different spaces, and none of it feels staged or designed to manufacture some trendy "coffeehouse aesthetic." In fact, I noticed something while sitting here: I don't see electrical outlets conveniently positioned at every table. I don't see a sea of laptops. Instead, I hear locals talking about doctor appointments, seeing the grandkids this weekend, and how ridiculously hot Augusta has been. People are simply here. I came in expecting to grab a coffee and leave. I have places to go and things to do today. But I sat down. Then I started looking around. Then I realized I didn't really want to leave. At some point they had probably been calling my drink for several minutes and I hadn't even noticed. And then I ordered a second coffee. That might be the best review I can give Buona Caffe. The coffee itself is absolutely on point. The staff knows what they're serving, makes thoughtful recommendations and genuinely seems to care about getting it right. But what makes this place special is everything surrounding the cup. It almost feels like they don't completely realize what they have here -- or maybe they do and simply have no desire to make it anything more than what it already is. As this part of Augusta continues to grow, with new homes and businesses coming into the area, I hope places like Buona Caffe remain exactly as they are. Sometimes you need a place between where you've been and wherever you have to go next. Somewhere neutral where you can sit down, let a little time pass, decompress and breathe before heading back out onto Central Avenue. Buona Caffe is that place.
