First time here and recommended by a colleague. I was a little concerned about dining out in Athens…read moreduring a busy Saturday afternoon but fortunately the N Chase location is perfectly tucked away, distant enough from the downtown area. I was 3rd in line and pleasantly surprised + pleased. Think Chipotle meets Chopt (the salad bar ). Fresh ingredients. LOTS of mix and match options OR preset menu items. And just as many drink options, including locally made kombucha. I ordered the winter salad and low country plates. With the exception of the turmeric ginger dressing (a little too zesty for me) and the hoppin John salad (hoppin John OR salad ... not both ) EVERYTHING was delicious. I enjoyed the salad way more than I thought I would. The spicy avocado dressing is YUMMY! The greens were cooked to perfection - another shocker. The edamame crunch, tofu and crunchies were just as delicious. I will visit the Atlanta location just to try the fritters! A wonderfully healthy and scrumptious delight !

Flavor however, is lacking. I was underwhelmed. That's the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars. I didn't realize the broccoli would be cold. That also threw me off. It was empty when we arrived and we were served immediately. The environment was a bit stale but only because the place was empty. If you enjoy minimal seasoning, you will love it here. I liked it, but I didn't love it.

My wife had the special, grouper with shrimp. It was well plated and delicious. I ordered the seafood fettuccine, mussels, clams, shrimp scallops and whitefish over fettuccine.

I really enjoyed the coleslaw and the chicken was very crispy! The service was very friendly and accommodating. It can get a little busy, but there is a good amount of seating inside, so should not have any problem unless it is a busy time like Sunday brunch! The ambiance is cool also and sits at a good listen in downtown Athens! I would give the place a try on your next stop!

I wanted a raw experience, not influenced by others. So I was a bit deflated when we walked in and it was counter-order setup but that's okay. There seemed to be only one person working. She was really nice and helpful but surely busy, which was fine, but as we were leaving the crowd started hitting and I wondered how well she could manage that solo. I could be wrong though, someone may have been in back and I just couldn't see. I ordered the Overhard Egg, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Melted Cheddar, Mayo Waffle with Spiced Tots (nice). Hubby ordered the Super Cluck with Maple Glazed Chicken, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Cheddar, Sriracha Mayo, Sunny-Side Up Egg. Mine was good, his was super yummy, just the right amount of heat and sweetness. Oh! I also gotta mention the REAL Vermont Maple Syrup. That's very much appreciated over corn syrup garbage. Nice touch! We both had regular coffees. I would've liked a decaf option, since I'm a bit intolerant to caffeine but I can drink it. The coffee had good flavor. I think maybe having the creamers in disposable individual ramekins is probably just extra work if not for to-go orders but that's whatever. It's a cool place and I can see why it's popular. The food hits and if I lived closer we'd probably frequent this spot. Worth checking out if you haven't been.

Food is quite reasonably priced and is one of the best brunches I've had in the state. The biscuits are quite excellent with the eggs and and old bay potatoes are incredible - crisp and flavourful. Sausage patties are also huge and juicy and tasty as compared to most diner patties you would get. Quiche had a great great filling. Bird's nest (egg in a hole with Gruyère and herbs) was the only item that was a disappointing. Coffees are made there and the salted maple was quite delightful! The regular espresso drinks are just ok, however. Parking is street around the restaurant, line is out the door a lot of the time, and when it isn't brutally cold sitting outside on the tables to eat seems quite nice. Highly recommended if you're checking out Athens or visiting your UGA kids or similar.

I actually attended UGA but I had never heard of this place before - perhaps because the prices aren't super college student-friendly, but I thought it was a nice local restaurant. They have several different kinds of chicken salad prepared, and I got the grape chicken salad in a sandwich. I don't think the bread is freshly-made but it was really good toasted. I selected a side of noodles which were also really tasty, which you can add peanuts to if you'd like but I opted not to. I also heard them talking about all sorts of desserts that they had made fresh that day. The entrance is really small so it might be easy to miss. They have tons of seating available so I'm sure you'd be fine if you brought a large group. They do also have internet but you have to ask them for the password. Note that I don't think this would be a good place to eat right now if you're trying to be cautious about COVID - no one's wearing masks and the food is out in the open.
