    Hand-Breaded Catfish Dinner
    Romeka B.

    Highly, highly upset!!! This is "what I saw vs. what I got!" OMG! So I ordered uber eats last night- wanted catfish and I have had O'Charley's catfish before. This is what I got. Nothing in their description says "catfish strip dinner" NOTHING!! I was furious last night! Will not order again from Austell Rd location. #nostarsreally #horribletaste #stripsnotfillets. The mac n cheese was not good, just dry!

    $5 Rita  Chicken tender nachos
    Scarlett F.

    I haven't been here in a while so I decided to go. It was a Monday and they had happy hour specials and daily specials which included $3 Margaritas $5 chicken tender nachos and $4 queso and chips It wasn't busy so I decided to sit at the bar, but the hostess said it was a 20 minute wait. I gave her my name and said OK. Mind you, I agreed to sit at the bar because it was not busy and there weren't a lot of people there. I waited a few minutes then I proceeded to ask her why was there a wait just to be seated at the bar. She then responds saying, she really didn't know but the bartender who's name is Zay told her not to seat us yet until the group of women pay and leave. I waited another 10 minutes as I'm looking confused as to why we had to wait for them to get up and leave. Another server then walked by and told the host to seat us and not to listen to the bartender because it was wrong and he had no authority to tell her that. By this time, I'm already saying strike two. It took him forever to come and take our order! I ended up ordering the Margarita special that was supposed to be $3 but was charged $5 I also ordered the chicken tender nachos and queso and chips. My friend ordered the steak with asparagus and macaroni. He said it was just ok. We had to wait extremely long for the food to come out. He finally brought our bread and butter right before the food came. (It wasn't all that either) I felt like he really needed some assistance and should have asked. I wasn't too pleased with the nachos, the drink was ok and he never brought out the queso dip. Overall, I was very disappointed. When he brought the checks over, I instantly saw that I was charged full price for the nachos. After bringing it to his attention, he made the corrections. The bar area was a hot mess. VERY NASTY!!! It definitely needed some TLC.

    Curbside to go order honey chicken broccoli and sweet potato mashed
    Mel N.

    Came here is a part of a to go gift card order Or did the fried chicken with honey broccoli and mashed sweet potato ( which I did not care for). So I called back up and traded it for the macaroni and cheese which was much better. For $10 it was OK.Food was warm tasty not overly exciting.

    This location is honestly a hit or miss. I've been coming for many years mainly out to convenience. The last few visits the service hasn't been the greatest, the food wasn't hot and our server took an extremely long time during service. I'm not sure did I'll be back at this specific location however I still love the food at O'Charley's

    Sirloin steak, macaroni and cheese, and mashed sweet potatoes
    Mrs. L.

    Ate here recently for my daughter's birthday and everything was wonderful as usual. We typically visit O'Charleys one or two times a month. Sometimes we even have birthday dinners here in my family and they are excellent about accommodating huge parties. I normally order the New Orleans Cajun chicken pasta but on this visit I ordered the 6oz Sirloin steak with sweet mashed potatoes and macaroni. I didn't really like the macaroni , but our waitress switched them out for me with no issues. My husband had the pasta this time, and it was delicious as usual. And ohhhhhh, the rolls and my homemade strawberry lemonade were delicious too. My daughter received a free dessert for her birthday as well. If you've never ate here, I would definitely try it out. Great American food at reasonable prices, and rolls served while you wait!!

    Coagulation gravy

    From the time we walked in to when we left it was horrible. The host was not at her station to greet us and when she finally came over she was rude. Our server was trying her best but it took 20 min for us to get bread and we had to ask her for it or we would have never gotten any. Then we ordered our apps that took 25 min to come out. When she came to our table with them she was already apologizing about the potato skins saying she asked the cook to take this back because it's burnt, but he told me "that's how they all supposed to look" Then me and my husband ordered our food. He got the steak and salmon with mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. I got southern chicken strips with brown gravy mash potatoes and broccoli. His salmon was dry and hard on the bottom the Mac and cheese was microwaved and dry, no cheese or sauce just noodles clumped together. AND the plate was hotter than the food. Everything was flat warm almost room temp. My chicken tenders were way over fried hard and dry my gravy was coagulated and just like my husbands dish the plate was hotter than the food. My mashed potatoes were almost cold. It took our food 45 minutes to get to our table and there were only 6 other people seated and 4 people at the bar. While we were waiting the 45 min for our food I was watching the pick up order costumers getting mad because they were not being acknowledged and some were given the wrong food. I saw 1 woman showing the kitchen manager her to go food after she received it and telling him it was unacceptable. She handed it to him and he said "well I don't want it" and she replied "well I don't want it either" he should have taken the food and thrown it away. His manager skills are atrocious. Meanwhile my husband can see behind me the front door and people are waiting 20 min for the host to come over to seat them. One couple even walked in trying to find some service after waiting 15 min at the door and sat at the bar. The couple behind them waited another 10 min when the host FINALLY came over and sat them. Everyone around us were growing more and more impatient and getting upset. The tension was thick in there. My husband and I go to this restaurant regularly and this was the worst experience we have had. We tip our server $20 because she was really trying her best the cooks and kitchen management were the ones at fault. We asked her if they were short handed she said no so we asked if D was there (we know her, she's a manager) she said no she's not here it's Floyd back there. So Floyd if you are reading this I hope you enjoyed your Papa John's pizza I saw you trade food for at 8:45 more than the food you served me and my husband. We should have ordered Papa John's too.

    Bar area.  Properly socially distanced.
    Alli S.

    Always good food. Very safe environment for COVID precautions. Manager is always friendly and makes sure that your experience is good. Danielle F. was our server today, and she was excellent. She anticipated our needs, was friendly without being overbearing. Our drinks were always full and everything was done with a smile. Even with her mask, she smiled with her eyes. I am recovering from a hip replacement surgery, so I am limited to where I can go. I'm glad we chose O'Charley's today.

    Cedar plank salmon w/loaded baked potato and broccoli
    Alyssa W.

    Out to dinner with my boyfriend. Scrolling through yelp and stumbled across this place. I was a little skeptical because it only had 3 stars. But decided to try it anyway. There was no wait and we were sat in the bar area. Our waitress Rebecca was nice by seemed a lil over whelmed. The food is actually pretty good... although my boyfriend didn't like the Mac n cheese. It was bland and not cheesy enough. We both ordered salmon. I got the cedar plank with loaded baked potatoes and broccoli. When I asked what all came on the potato,he mentioned cheese sour cream chives and bacon (sounds about right) I asked if it was bacon bits or real and he told me bacon bits smh! Why serve the cheap imitation if you have the real deal. I ended up declining on bacon all together. We also ordered cocktails. I got the island margarita!! It's sooo good. My salmon came out seasoned well and juicy. Cooked to about a medium-well temp. Overall everything was fine but nothing was over the top or stood out. I would come back but it may not be my first choice.

They asked us to have a seat and said it would be just a few minutes. After watching three other families come in and get seated right away we were still waiting. 30 minutes later we finally got seated. They ended up making us wait until another family had finished and left. It took forever for them to take our drink orders. And thankfully everybody already knew what we wanted to order so we went ahead and ordered at the same time. We ordered fried pickles. They are the absolute worst fried pickles I've ever had. You could not even taste a pickle flavor. They were so thin that the batter dehydrated them. No flavor at all other than salt. Then came the extremely long wait for our food. Looking around the room everyone was having to wait and extremely long wait for their food. As people that were seated before us still had no food. When our food arrived, all of the adult meals came out but the two kids meals which were just hamburgers and fries took over another full 5 minutes or more before they brought them out. Waitresses were not spending anytime filling drinks. When she did ask my husband about needing more water he said yes he was going to need more water, but she never brought any more out. I ordered the country fried steak. The batter was very dark and color like it was overcooked or cooked in old grease. One of the patties could not be eaten because it was so overcooked and burnt. The green beans were very mushy my mashed potatoes and gravy were cold. My daughter ordered fried okra and it was cold. The cornbread muffin was so small, my guess is it was the last of the batter being used. I could have eaten it in one bite. But it was so dry and flavorless that I chose to leave it on my plate. When the waitress finally asked how everything was I told her about our experience with the overcooked country fried steak and the cold okra and cold mashed potatoes and gravy. My husband ordered prime rib and it was way overcooked versus prime rib that you see at other restaurants. My mother's steak was overcooked and her grilled shrimp came out cold. The waitress brought out replacement mashed potatoes and gravy and replacement fried okra. I asked her about taking something off of the bill since I could not eat half of my dinner. She tried to say that the mashed potatoes and okra that she brought out were extra helpings, but I explained to her they were not extra that they were replacement for what was cold. I was not asking for a replacement country fried steak but I would like something off of my ticket. She finally agreed and took $5 off. Also with us having two children in our group they gave us one children's menu. These are the menus that have a coloring page on the back. We had to ask for a second kids menu and had to ask for the crayons. When our food came we also had to ask for silverware. Do not waste your time waiting to be seated and do not waste your time waiting for your food here. It is not worth it. They definitely have issues in the kitchen, as I was checking out I heard the waitress say that she had to make peach muffins because no one else had done it and they had run out. Overall I felt like I was in a living episode of Gordon Ramsay's kitchen nightmares.

We had a long day and just wanted to eat at home, so we decided to place a takeout order. After browsing the website, we settled on the Salisbury steak meal, a veggie plate, lemon pepper wings with fries, a chicken tender meal, and a slice of strawberry cake. Second good point: the website was user-friendly. However, when I tried to place the order, the payment wouldn't go through. My husband called the restaurant, and we were told they were having some technical difficulties with their system--but we could place the order over the phone instead. Third good point: the person we spoke to was friendly and helpful. The food was hot and fresh when my husband brought it home. Overall, everything was good--there were a few minor issues, but nothing that was a deal breaker: The mac and cheese was a bit dry, and the cheese wasn't fully melted. The collard greens were a little too salty, and the chicken tenders were pretty bland. The icing on the strawberry cake was also a bit too sweet for my taste--but that might just be personal preference. Other than that, everything was delicious. I'm looking forward to actually going inside next time, whether to dine in or get takeout.

For the most part, people seemed to enjoy it so I was convinced I should check it out. The restaurant is located inside of the Hilton airport Hotel. There is a secure parking lot that requires you to pull a ticket when you enter. The restaurant will validate the parking ticket for you ! When I walked in I was greeted by a staff member and seated immediately. Shortly after I was seated my wait staff came over and introduced herself. She took my drink order and said she would allow me time to look over the menu. I asked my wait staff her thoughts on the Mac and cheese. I am picky about eating Mac and cheese from places. Most don't know how to make real Mac & cheese ( if you know what I mean)! She told me it was pretty solid. - As such I ordered the following: Crab bisque Smoked chicken wing plate served with two sides: Mac & cheeses and asparagus were my picks! The crab bisque did take a long time to come out. It was so delayed that my main course came out shortly after the soup. It was not ideal, but I made it work! The crab bisque was solid. I would order it again. The wing plate also exceeded my expectations! I was impressed with the mac and cheese. The asparagus were large, which was concerning to me! Like how did they get so big? Steroids? Nonetheless, they were cooked to perfection! I did get the banana pudding to go- this was the only item I would not order again! It was basic and I only took a few bites and ended up trashing it . Overall I would reconned this spot! Service was spot on- and for a hotel restaurant the food is pretty good!

I did get chided for trying to help with clearing the dishes - which was a first for me. No complaints here. I hope to come back for another amazing meal when I'm back in town. Please don't go anywhere!
