    I went in and ate and had an amazing experience. Bartender was great, food was delicious and ambiance was beautiful.

    Fried green tomatoes appetizer
    Nakema G.

    I treated my mom to dinner at Fish Thyme and it was so good. This was my second time going and my moms first time. She really enjoyed it. We started out with the fried green tomatoes appetizer. It has a sauce on it and goat cheese. The tomatoes are a little on the thicker side and could use a little more seasoning. For entrees we ordered the parmesan and potato encrusted flounder and the half order of crab cakes (1). A full order is 2. The crab cake was good and not full of filler. It had a remoulade sauce that paired well with it. For sides we had green beans, creamed spinach, and mashed sweet potatoes. We ended dinner with the rum cake. It was very moist and warmed. It was served along side vanilla ice cream and whipped cream with a caramel sauce.

    This is the posted hours of operations.

    Let me start by saying that this place is a hidden gem in Acworth, GA and the surrounding areas. It should be recognized and visited more, IJS. The food here is always, always fresh, hot and well prepared. From the appetizers to the drinks to the desserts to the food, you can't miss. The only wish is to try everything, but it's best to come back soon, and keep coming. The service from the hostess staff that checks you in. To the serving staff that takes your order. To the management staff that walks around to greet you and welcome you in, this is food service and hospitality done right. Words can't express the level of service from Ms. Dorothy, she is amazing . She is funny, knowledgeable and very attentive to her customers. We come back as often as we can and ask for her. The ambiance is white tablecloths, but on a more relaxed state. They have some soft music playing overhead, but it's not overpowering at all. They have a beautiful large fireplace inside. Plenty of extra seating on the upstairs area. The restrooms are nice and clean and cool. A must visit for date nights, family dinning, groups, individuals or to hang at the bar to watch a game or to chill nice and romantically on the patio - visit soon.

    4 stars for the great service, nice ambiance & cute bracelets that the owner gave to my 19 month old. The service was excellent! The food came out quick! Drinks were strong & came out soon after we ordered them. Love the paper for tablecloths. My 19 month old enjoyed coloring on the table. The kids menu is on the back of a children's book. Super cute idea. I was reluctant to let my toddler read the book as it was a little old and germs. Loved the idea but I'd prefer a disposable menu. Started with the alligator bites & oyster Rockefeller. Both were delicious! I ordered the blackened Halibut. The lobster cream sauce was great!! Had to order more sauce for the fish. The halibut was a little dry. Probably my least favorite dish. The creamed spinach & mashed potatoes were good. My husband ordered the stuffed flounder. DELICIOUS! Seasoned to perfection! I ended up eating his food. He ordered the hash browns as the server said it was his favorite side. Don't recommend. Just dry hash browns. No seasoning, flavor or anything. Overall, this is a really cute date spot.

    I've eaten here many times over the years, but tonight's experience was by far the worst. Usually they are on point, so maybe it was an off night. My complaints stem from a lack of communication between service & the management team, and total lack of communication between the manager and the customer. Keep in mind, my rating is based on the overall cost to quality ratio, so I'm judging them harshly because their dishes are on the higher end of the spectrum, and as such I expect better attention to details & customer satisfaction. Our server was overall pretty good, polite, and present. However, drinks trickled out to the table rather slowly; from the time the first couple of drinks arrived to the final delivery of the table's first round, it took about 15 minutes, making it impossible to have a proper toast for the birthday boy. I realize this is a bar staff issue and not necessarily the server's fault. Nonetheless, she kept a sunny disposition. The next issue came with my grilled trout order, which was a victim of a severe grill flareup that made the skin burnt and bitter, so I did not eat it and brought it to the attention of our server, who said that she would have it removed from the bill, agreeing with my analysis. Instead the manager gave the discount to another check at our table, not mine (and it was less than half the cost of the meal). Frankly, if I were the manager I would have made a stop by the table to make sure the resolution was satisfactory, to offer my apologies. All I was told is that the manager didn't do the removal the right way, and that there was no recourse at that point. Because it was a birthday celebration, I didn't raise a fuss, but I sure don't mind sharing my experience here to caution other diners. Appetizers were the calamari & bang, bang shrimp, the former relying on the garlic aioli for flavor while the calamari strips were overly salty and slightly limp. The shrimp were also sodium heavy, missing the three dimensional profile of what I expect from the dish (a little sweet, a little spicy, a little salty). The side items were acceptable; the creamed spinach was the most flavorful part of my meal, the green beans were primarily seasoned with garlic leaving much to be desired, but at least they weren't over cooked like so many southern style green bean dishes are. Considering our table of 9 spent around $1,000 collectively, I expect more from a restaurant. The desserts were on the sweet side for my taste, again relying on one aspect, rather than creating depth, though I will say the key lime pie came the closest to having a complex profile. The chocolate Charlotte is nothing like any Charlotte I have had before (usually a custard with fruits & berries served in a tart pie crust), but rather a dense chocolate cheesecake with a brownie shell, dry lady fingers and an overload of whipped cream drizzled with chocolate syrup...fair warning, it's big enough to feed four people. The strawberry pound cake does highlight the spring freshness of ripened strawberries, but again a bit too sweet for me, not enough contrast.

    This place is amazing! And classy. The food selection never disappoints. And the outdoor area is so beautiful especially during the cooler weather!

    Seafood pasta.  My buddy said it was excellent

    HEADLINE: The Food Here is an Experience not to be Missed. Now to the details. We've been here before, and I'm not sure why I failed to post a review. This was the first time in a while, ONLY because it's a long drive. I love eating outdoors, and the patio is amazing. Inside is nice, so if outside ain't your thing, you'll be fine. Service is excellent. Drinks are top notch. But what is a restaurant without good eats? Let me start by saying I've eaten in 100s of restaurants. So when I say the food here is a cut above the rest, I have a lot to compare it to. It amazes me you can find top notch culinary delights far into the Atlanta suburbs. Started with the crab stuff mushrooms. Big, juicy, loaded with crab meat. We were so hungry I forgot to take a pic. Sorry! I ordered the crab stuffed flounder, and my buddy ordered the seafood pasta. I had a side of corn with peppers, onions, and tomatoes, and a side of hash browns with onions and peppers. You get to pick two sides. He chose to pay the $4 up charge and replace one of his sides with a Caesar salad. It was huge! Not a salad in a bowl. I believe it was a quarter of romaine, nearly a foot long, loaded with a unique blend of cheese, homemade croutons, and I don't know what else, and easily a lunch all by itself, which is why he shared He raved about his pasta. And all I can say is my flounder was hard to stop eating. The beurre blanc sauce on top of perfectly cooked flounder and crabmeat.... So good it almost hurts. But I get to have leftovers in about 10 minutes. There is a reason this place stands packed even tho it's WAY up in Acworth. Hope I did the place justice. One last thing: if you're not a seafood eater, I did see pork chops and steaks on the menu. I might try them one day. But only if they don't have the crab stuffed flounder.

    Fried Green Tomatoes
    Earl S.

    We had a pleasant experience. Our waitress, Sarah, was really kind and accommodation. They have an extensive menu and du jour options as well. This is beautiful location recommended by dear friends and I'm glad we finally had a chance to attend. It's great for parties, gatherings, and dinner dates. We started with the Fried Green Tomatoes which left something to be desired---they looked good but necessitates more seasoning. We had to add salt and it seemed to still not be enough. I'd recommend adding seasoning to the tomatoes before breading them. For dinner, I had Stuffed Salmon with side of Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Vegetable of the Day. It was delicious, hearty, and full of flavor. We didn't have dessert. Parking is ample.

    Great food! Nice atmosphere, big selection. Highly recommend to visit this gem in north Georgia

    Water damaged floor with mold.

    So I haven't been to fish thyme in a while. I used to take my entire family yearly and myself monthly I just decided to show up last night with my son, which is a chef downtown Started with two apps. Brochette came out cold while the calamari came out hot with half the portion. We were trying not to let that ruin our evening. We ordered our entree with extra sides. My son ordered the cucumber salad. Just plain vinegar and the cumbersome were soft. I brought that to the waiter's attention. He just said I am sorry. Then after a few minutes I was drinking my water talking trying to enjoy our time together and choked on a fly in my water. I normally would order dessert especially their red velvet cake. We decided enough was enough nothing was taken off the check. Then I looked at the floor and saw all the water damage they had obviously from a toilet flood where they just threw a ring over it.

    Food was great! Portions are alittle small for the money but taste amazing!! Food takes a little to come out but service and ambiance is great. Reservations are a headache to get , you have to call but they don't open until 5pm.

    Special:  The Duo with Lobster Tail and Fried Shrimp with creamed spinach and mashed sweet potatoes!

    Once again, Fish Thyme did NOT disappoint! Their service and food are always On Point! Reservations are DEFINITELY recommended!

    I love the posh Greek decor inside this restaurant. The servers are all top notch and so attentive. Very classy vibe. Highly recommend the desserts! Reservations are a must but if you don't have one, be there when they open at 5pm. Anything stuffed with crab is good and the kale salad is surprisingly yummy!

I LOVE the variety of high-quality menu items here! There was something delicious for the pickiest of our teenage basketball players and their parents! From burgers to salads to poke nachos to beet salad, every single dish was exceptionally plated and prepared. The diner itself was spacious and well accommodated. Very pretty design with a modern touch. It was nice to couples on dates, families enjoying a nice meal, and then a large birthday group next to us. The weather was great for those seated outside.

Elevated food but still a laid back atmosphere that was comfortable. Our server was quick and attentive and helped guide us through the menu.

Bright, full of flavor with the tuna nachos and savory comfort food in the pierogies. Looking forward to trying new items on our next visit.

    I'm a fan of Bentwater Golf Club. My coworkers and I played several rounds at this course (mostly…read moretournament rounds) before it went private. Yes, it used to be public until it became part of Canongate. ClubCorp later acquired Bentwater in a large multi-course acquisition in 2014. ClubCorp packaged Bentwater, which is located in Acworth, with Eagle Watch Golf Club, which is located in Woodstock. The two courses are about 35 minutes apart (with no traffic), but you can play both under one membership. That way, ClubCorp can market Bentwater and Eagle Watch together as 36 holes. Bentwater is a good 35-45 minutes north of Atlanta, up I-75 (take exit 278). It's worth the drive. The course is challenging, but fun. I have several memories here. The course was always in good condition the times we played it. The fairways and rough were lush and the greens (bentgrass) rolled true. The course opened in 2000 and was designed by Georgia Tech grad Mike Dasher. To date, it's the only Dasher design I've played. This is the only course I've played where the red tees are the tips. From the tips, the course measures 6,869 yards with a 73.5/143 rating/slope. Par 72. We played from the blues and whites. The blues measure 6,517 yards (71.8/137) and the whites measure 5,991 yards (69.2/132). It's not PGA Tour long, but it's long for weekend hackers like me. I consider this course above average in difficulty and I enjoyed the challenge. I had some pretty solid rounds here (by my low standards). The course is built within a subdivision. It's hilly. Most of the fairways are lined with trees, but there are several holes with houses on them. Aside from creeks, there's no water to contend with except on holes 9 and 18, each of which features its own scenic pond. The 9th hole is a medium-length par-5 where the pond comes into play on your 2nd shot. The 18th is a par-4 that plays downhill off the tee and slightly back uphill to an elevated green guarded on its front and left sides. You can miss short and right there and still be OK. The most memorable hole for me is No. 10. It's a long par-5 with a dramatic elevation change off the tee. From tee to green, it's a 90+foot drop. You can gain some serious distance off the tee thanks to that downhill shot. It's the No. 1 handicap hole (toughest on the course). They like to start you off on some long holes as holes 1 and 10 are both par-5s and the two longest holes on the course. The 1st hole is fun as well. They are strict about pace of play, at least the times we played. The marshals got on to our groups more than once. Granted, we were playing tournament rounds and thus were probably taking more time than we would a casual round. One time, we were comped rounds after having to deal with pace of play issues. Along with the 18-hole course, Bentwater has a driving range, medium-size practice putting green, and practice short game area with two small bunkers. The clubhouse is fine. This is an adequate mid-tier private club. If you're familiar with metro Atlanta golf courses, Governors Towne Club, designed by Curtis Strange, is right next door. Governors is nicer, but more expensive and exclusive.
