    Sweet Tea

    Amazing food. Great ambiance. The special was delicious. Stopped by on our way to Florida.

    Pork chop
    Kelsi H.

    We were passing through and came in on a Friday evening around 6:30. It was pretty busy but we (two people) were quickly seated. The biscuits they start you with were PERFECT! Warm, cheesy, savory. Yum! We got the winter harvest salad to split first and it was such a great combo of flavors. I ordered the pork chop and my husband got the shrimp and grits. His entire wasn't your typical bowl of grits with shrimp but it was delicious! Wish we had more grits honestly though. My pork chop was a little dry and needed a little more seasoning. But I loved the fried green tomato and Mac n cheese with it. Overall a good experience. Would be a great date night place or place to hang with some friends for a meal, but not really ideal for small kids. Great service!

    We found this lovely, high end restaurant in an historic town square. We chose to enjoy the evening breeze on the front porch. Our server, Courtney was terrific. The food, amazing! We enjoyed chatting with the sous chef, Giordano...felt like we were friends by the end of the evening. Bravo!

    Barramundi YUM!!!!!

    Barramundi - Wow!!! Flaky, Light, Crispy on edges and well balanced flavor. What a hidden delightful surprise in Forsyth, GA ( kudos to kitchen for the Lemon sliced expertly for easy squeezing') Not to mention the Grits Fritters - Where have you been all my life ?

    Yesterday was my first time actually eating at the Grits Cafe and I was immediately amazed at how amazing it looked inside. I had purchased the ranch burger but my family as a collective got three plates of their fried green tomatoes along with their separate orders. The service was incredible and responsive (we also went in when it wasn't as busy neither, so I think it was also a contributing factor). The ambiance was definitely a family friendly restaurant.

    Grits fritters - delicious!

    What an absolute little gem, a perfect lunch break for our long road trip, highly recommend! Luckily the weather held up so we were able to sit outside. The staff was more than thrilled to have us and our little four legged friend. We started with the grits fritters which were very tasty and for lunch I had the salmon BLT and my fiancé had the French dip. The waitress was so friendly and happily allowed us to try some of their soup of the day. She also told us we could substitute the fries for sweet potato fries, or a salad or a soup if we liked. (I went with the Caesar salad which was excellent and I loved how the croutons were also made of grits, how fun). My BLT was great too. The sandwich bread was excellent and I loved the remoulade sauce too. So many amazing options here, it was certainly hard to choose! Our waitress was so super nice, as was everyone working there. Pax was so happy too! He loved the pets from the hard working staff! Before we left, I walked inside to view the ambiance and I'm so bummed we don't live closer, the walls were open brick and aligned with beautiful artwork, I could sit here for hours with a book in my hand!

    Grits never fails to please. The bone in pork chop is one of the best dishes in all of middle Georgia.
