Also, she said she is having to use DD drivers because she doesn't have any Marcos drivers. Well, that isn't my fault either and I suggested she needed to make this right which she chose not and became very disrespectful and nasty towards me. All this is on my speaker on my phone in front of a group. When you go online it doesn't tell you that Marcos is using DD drivers, so I had no idea about this, nor did I get a DD update on a text or email.

We usually and haven't ordered from a pizza chain in almost a year because of this exact behavoir, and we will never ever again. Horrible people work here with nasty attitudes.

Upon entry we were greeted pleasantly from the staff. The prices are $10.99 all day on the weekend and $7.99 during the week if you get there before 3:00 p.m. They also have a discount for children and seniors. After we paid we started to get our food and I noticed that all of the pizzas were fully stocked but they were all so dried out. I decided to try it maybe looks can deceive you when I tried the pizza it was like eating cardboard all of the pizzas in there were like that totally dried out. The time we went was on a weekend probably around 2:00 p.m. and there was a few other people in there but there's no excuse why to have such dried out pizza since you are paying a higher price for it on the weekend and expect nothing but the best service no matter what time of day you are there. From being at other Stevie B's I noticed they did not have any pretzel bites ok no problem. I also noticed that the salad bar was behind the counter and you had to ask to have them to make you a bowl of salad if you chose that route which I thought was kind of weird and annoying since it's an all you can eat place that is serve yourself and they're serving you the salad. Decided that I needed some sauce for the cardboard dehydrated Pizza to make it less dry that was also behind the counter and you had to ask them to give you a cup if you chose that as well. Not sure if it was just a bad day at this Stevie B's but there's no excuse for it my overall experience at this Stevie B's I would not be back again the pizza was totally garbage and that's saying it lightly. The staff was nice and the restaurant was clean on a positive note.

I go to Olive garden and get a meal that I will take home and fill up on the soup, mainly because I…read morereally do love the Zuppa Toscana, thats the main reason I go there, the meal is just a bonus. So I'm a big boy and usually dont eat anything all morning, so I can eat 4 or 5 bowls, especially as they fill it less and less with each bowl to trick me I guess. I would actually be out of there sooner if they filled them to the top as I am eating that Zuppa Toscana deliciousness till I cant. Here is the kicker, the last couple bowls are awfully watery, you can tell they pour some water in there, or add less stuff to the broth, or something as the broth is even mostly clear and you can taste the difference. That may only be the one in Covington GA that does it, but they have done it several times with different servers, so I am convinced its a policy or directed by the manager. Another thing, from what was mentioned to me by a server who asked me to pay for the meal early and she would still serve me, the servers get dinged if the person is at the table more than 29 minutes, so they have a big incentive to brow beat and avoid your eyes for refills hoping you will leave. Still the service is super good, I haven't had a less than stella experience from the people that work there. The watered down last couple bowls still tastes alright so I would still recommend going here if you like Olive Garden.

It was wonderful spending time with my family and visiting with my extended Frank's family. Frank's Restaurant has been a cornerstone of the community since 1970, and stepping inside feels like walking into a piece of living history. As a family-owned establishment, it carries a warmth and authenticity that's hard to find in newer, more commercial dining spots. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with genuine hospitality. The staff--many of whom are part of the extended family or have been there for years--treat you less like a customer and more like a regular, even on your first visit. That sense of familiarity creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back. The food reflects decades of tradition and consistency. Recipes clearly haven't been rushed or modernized for trends. Whether it's their classic comfort dishes or house specialties, everything feels thoughtfully prepared and generously portioned. There's a sense that each plate carries the legacy of the original owners, not just a menu item. read more

This restaurant is close by my home and I haven't eaten there in years. That being said we went there this past Saturday night and we're we surprised. The food was excellent. The service was exceptional. We ordered lasagna (made from scratch) grill chicken tenders with peppers and onions and a country fried steak plate. We also tried the redneck nachos All of the food was great. The chips were homemade. We will definitely be returning soon. They also have space available for large parties! read more

Hi, I went to Southside Seafood because I live close in the…read moreneigborhood. Not a good experience! First, the menu is not correct. The fish dinners do not come with fries, coleslaw, and hushpuppies, as advertised. I ordered a 3 pc flounder with okra and broccoli. Thinking I was also getting the other items that the menu said it came with. I got my food and asked about the fries, coleslaw, and hushpuppies. The girl at the register said, "Oh it doesn't come with it" and didn't say anything after that. Not until I had to point it out to her that it was on the menu, that she acknowledged the menu was wrong. I had to get the menu from the counter and point it out to her. So basically, she was gonna let me think that I just ordered wrong. Which is so messed up. This is false advertisement. BTW, I had their menu for weeks at home. This menu has been wrong, and they know it's been wrong for a while. When I opened the box, the fish was very, very small and the fish was in the same side with the broccoli. The juice from the broccoli went onto the fish and made it wet. I would think as a cook, you would know better. I asked for another container to put the fish in. As I stated previously, the fish was very very small for $17.99, basically $20 dollars. It looked like they took the flounder and cut that piece in half. Not giving me a FULL SIZE piece of fish. The ends were curled up, so I'm guessing this is what they did. I've never had a piece of full size fish look like that. It looked like half of a piece of fish and for $17.99! Oh, and you only get 1 side! What soul food fish place you know where you get 1 side? I haven't seen it. So, I had to order the fries, coleslaw and hushpuppies since it didn't come with it as advertised. I had to wait on them to fix it and my other food was getting cold. The girl at the counter did not apologize and she did not offer a discount for the menu being incorrect and the false advertisement. When I got my food, she was going to forget my coleslaw, and I had to remind her that I also ordered coleslaw. When I got home to eat the food, it was not good. The fish tasted like it didn't have any seasoning, the coleslaw was horrible. It didn't really have a taste at all. The broccoli was okay. You can't really mess up okra, and fries, so they were fine. The hush puppies were very, very, very small. Like a hushpuppy had 2 babies. I would not go back to this restaurant. I would give it zero stars if I could. Poor customer service and the food was not good. JJ's is way better and the fish is the correct size. Not cut in half and served to you like, you wouldn't notice the size. I was so disappointed because I believe it's black owned. DON'T DO IT!
