    Oliver's was a recommendation from a local. Glad we decided to listen. Cute warm and homey atmosphere. It had a nice lunch crowd even though it was pouring rain. Seated immediately and drink order was taken. We started with the sweet potato fries which were delicious. For lunch I ordered theTCB melt with fries, my husband order the salmon with broccoli and pasta salad. ( he was not a fan of the salad) and my son had the chicken fettuccini with pesto. My son's meal came out wrong (a sandwich) it happens but I felt bad eating while he waited. Overall it was a wonderful experience and would dine there again. See menu for better descriptions and prices.

    Best corner bistro in Macon. Serving for both Lunch and Dinner. For app starters try the sweet potato fries. Our main course consisted of; 1. Excellent sweetened Salmon garnished with brussel spouts and pasta salad 2. Pesto chicken fettuccine - cooked perfectly 3. Turkey melt with a side of fries. The bistro building matched the downtown vibe which is a nineteenth century civil war era. Also, our waiter was very attentive however it did take time to receive our order due to time of day.

    I was very underwhelmed by this restaurant. I did not have a bad experience but everything seemed mediocre. The service was fine, the food is good and the restaurant was well decorated and clean. The staff did not present well and this restaurant could have some class. After a short but considerable wait on a table, we were given the opportunity to sit at one of the tables in the bar area. A party left just ahead of us sitting down and the staff failed to thoroughly clean the dining area. My wife and I both ordered a sandwich with fries and a small salad. Complete assumption on our part but we prefer that a salad comes prior to a meal...but this is on us for not asking. All of the food was exactly as we ordered. They serve large portions here. I would dine here again but I would expect to have a stellar experience on my next visit or it would be my last.

    Attended a Christmas Celebration with Forever Diamonds last week, and my First Experience with Oliver's was outstanding. Everyone and everything was great. The atmosphere was perfect as downtown Macon at this corner at Popular and 2nd Street is an absolute pleasure to visit. The Bloody Mary spicy was great. Our table service team did an excellent job. The appetizers were really good. And my Rosotto Salmon dish was outstanding. All in all a perfect night. Thank you Oliver's & Forever Diamonds. Two outstanding business. Merry Christmas!

    What an amazing place... After visiting another place that appeared to be out of business, I decided to drive to downtown to try Oliver's corner bistro. Being that I was dining by myself, I chose to sit at the bar. Brooklyn, the bartender/server, was friendly, attentive, and very personable. I wasn't super hungry, so I decided to try the tomato bisque soup and the pesto cheese bread starter. Both tasted fresh and very flavorful. It tasted a little like a high-end, deconstructed grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup. While I was enjoying my food at the bar, Brooklyn told me about other menu items, including some from the Saturday and Sunday brunch menu. I'll definitely have to return the next time I stop in Macon. Cheers

    Way to go Macon- you are two for two with meals today. My coworkers and I had a wonderful meal! Our server Megan was attentive but not a hoverer. The place was busy with a couple of large groups at one table. The kitchen was cranky out food, though. We had little lag time between ordering and eating. We started at the bar prior to sitting down for dinner and the bartender was talented and engaging. There was a set menu that was populated by specials of the day. I chose the ravioli of the day- stuffed smoked chicken with ricotta. Perfect portion size and very tasty. All three of us enjoyed our meals.

    Shrimp & Grits

    Great food and great service! Also gave special attention to my fur baby. Will definitely be back! I highly recommend the shrimp & grits.

    Went here for our 1st brunch. Had a great time Skylar was super friendly! Got the carafe of cranberry and pineapple mimosas. We had the avocado toast to start. And I had the shrimp and grits! Oh my it was super good! The sauce wasn't too heavy. And the shrimp were prefect. My fiancé loved his pancakes too! We sat in the back of the restaurant. It was a good brunch atmosphere.

    Baldino's Giant Jersey Subs - Half sandwich

    Baldino's Giant Jersey Subs

    (24 reviews)

    This is a hard review to have to write, due to my love of Baldino's subs. I haven't had a Baldino's…read moresub in over 10 years due to not having a location near enough to my house or my visits around the country, so I was pleasantly surprised to see a location in downtown Macon, which was not far off the highway, so I took my life and sanity into my hands by chancing a drive through the mess that is downtown Macon. While the location of the deli is in a good spot, be careful where you park. I got inside and ordered from the owner/manager, a friendly and pleasant woman, and proceeded to wait for my order. 2 simple sandwiches, no special ingredients, made the "Baldino's Way", and after waiting for considerable time for the employees to make the order (they were busy laughing and talking amongst themselves and getting orders wrong left and right, and literally laughing over the sandwiches, as in LEANING OVER and laughing) I got my order and left. We ate our sandwiches on the road since we had a long way to go. Worst sandwiches I have had. Absolutely LOADED with oregano (see pic of tomato doused in oregano) and zero oil and vinegar on either. Horrible taste with all the oregano and lack of oil and vinegar. I had to apologize to my brother for suggesting Baldino's, he probably won't take a chance in another location. Note to owner/manager: ask your employees to pay attention to what they are doing, don't talk and giggle with your face inches from a sandwich, and stop lollygagging when you have multiple customers waiting. This place won't survive long if they keep getting reviews like mine and others I've seen on here. What a shame.

    This place is a throwback. I haven't been in years on years. But it is still awesome. I got the…read moreItalian Battalion full size. It was WAY too big for me. Just half was very filling and I had them wrap the rest. The meat on this thing is over an inch thick. It is crazy. But tasty. If you are really hungry this thing will bring you back to life. In a world where are sandwich chains are cutting costs with less meat or lower quality these guys are still packing a wallop.
