Best kept secret down this stretch of the South might just be Peggy's fried chicken…read more Now, a great many places have the confidence to fry a bird. That is not the same as knowing what they're doing. Plenty can make chicken hot. Fewer can make it memorable. Peggy's managed the rarer thing. This was the kind of fried chicken that makes a man quiet for a minute and reconsider whether he has properly valued his past blessings. They had other meats on the menu, and I do not doubt they were prepared by decent people with honest intentions, but ordering anything besides the fried chicken would have felt like showing up at a revival and asking for directions to a yoga class. And the sides, Lord help me, the sides were no afterthought. If I had not attended the funerals myself, I might have suspected my great grandma, grandma, and momma were back there in the kitchen, keeping an eye on the pots. Forgive me, Mammaw G, Mammaw, and Mom, but Peggy's had the better day with that chicken. I say that with love, respect, and a willingness to dodge a lightning bolt if one has been set aside for me. Fried okra, green beans, sweet potatoes, and mac and cheese, which any Southerner with good sense knows is a vegetable when it needs to be, spread across our plates like a family reunion of the righteous. The only medical advisory I'd offer is this: if your doctor has warned you against coating your insides with salt, you may want to admire from a respectful distance. And the sweet tea was right. Not tea-flavored water with ambition. Sweet tea. Properly made. The sort that lets you know nobody in the building is interested in modern nonsense. Next time I'm rolling down I-20, I may well make the turn toward Wrens again just to see whether Peggy's can do it twice. But judging by the regulars, the handshakes, the easy way the staff knew folks by name, and the fact they made us feel halfway local ourselves, I'd say this was no one-off. This felt less like a lucky meal and more like the kind of place that still believes doing something well is reason enough to keep doing it.

My grandson and I were hungry so we scurried over to get a place to go because they close at 8:30. We were kindly greeted and informed that the cooks have left the building but they had buffet style. The server came out and prepared our to go plates with care. We ordered sweet ice teas, had great conversation and I'm out merry way. I had Chuck beef over rice, candied yams, lima beens and a biscuit. OMG the food was as it should be, comfort food. Every bite was delicious and that biscuit melted in my mouth. The ice tea was perfectly crafted. My grandson had fried chicken in Mac n Cheese. He didn't expound in its taste but he gobbled it up with no complaints. I would say that he enjoyed it. I know the locals enjoy this restaurant because it seems like Peggy's is a staple in the community. It's too bad that I won't be back here but I am glad that I supported this restaurant rather than going to a fast food that's close by. Thank you to the staff for making us feel welcomed and by serving us with care. I choose chuck beef over rice, yams, lima beens, and a biscuit. I felt nostalgic eating this food reminiscing from days of past, living in the south and eating soul food

I saw this place as we were in our way to our worksite. The name caught my eye and it was all I…read morecould think about. We went here for lunch. It's a small place sort of looked like it could have been a fast food restaurant. There was plenty of seating. You could order from the menu or from the hot table (not sure what else to call it). There were two ladies working up front and it took a long time to order. I had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes, green beans, a cornbread muffin and a tea (half sweet/half unsweetened). My colleague had meatloaf, Mac and cheese, green beans, and a biscuit. We each ordered peach cobbler. They serve a lot of food! My colleague said she was going to take some for dinner. Well. . . she ate everything. It must have been really good. I haven't had good fried chicken in a long time and it was delicious. I ate all the green beans and the cornbread. I took the chicken to eat later. The mashed potatoes started out tasting good but then I started to notice an after taste that I didn't like. I didn't eat them. My colleague could not eat the cobbler. I'm not sure what was wrong with it but she tasted it and said she couldn't eat it. I unfortunately never got to eat mine. It sat in the fridge in the hotel and I ended up tossing it before I left. I was a little disappointed. I really was expecting some grits and maybe some greens (not green beans).

I will make a special trip out of the way for good food, and this is a spot that I'd come to every week if I lived closer. The cooks' hands are blessed, because the way I INHALED that food should be a crime in itself. The decor was cute and festive for the occasion, but all I could concentrate on was that FOOD.

I'm pretty picky about my pizza and this check most boxes for me. I went with a traditional Margherita pizza and it was good. It actually exceeded my expectations considering what you can get in the area. I wish the "undercarriage" of the pie was a bit more cooked and crispy. Also, the sauce was a little underwhelming but still decent nonetheless. We had the oven baked brownie à la mode and it was okay at best. Brownie was really dry and they didn't give you much ice cream to go with it. I would avoid it in all honesty. I will definitely come back and try a different pie and see how it compares to first go around. Okay update. So I've returned 3 days after my first experience and it was way better. My wife and I asked for well done on our pizzas and it was PERFECT. I had the spicy hot honey chicken pie and my wife had the bulgogi. They were absolutely delicious. I can't wait to have them again. This is by far our favorite pizza place in Augusta.

Camellia Cafe -- 10/10 There are good things in life, and…read morethen there are great things. This is neither. This is an excellent thing, and excellent things are rare. From the moment you walk in, you feel at home. The decor isn't just "there"; it's curated. With every turn of the head, you find yourself captivated by something more interesting than the last. It creates a cozy, intentional environment that sets the stage for the service. The Service: Shannon is a absolute delight and as genuine as they come. She has that "Momma's about to feed you, sit down and tell me what you need" energy, and it works perfectly. Watching her work is a sight to behold she handles three or four things at once with a grace most of us lack while just walking and breathing. You may enter empty, but you certainly won't leave that way. The Food: Have you ever liked one thing so much you haven't even made it to the rest of the menu? That's me. Their bacon, egg, and cheese would give any breakfast spot in Georgia a run for its money. I swear every time I walk in that I'll try something new, but the "usual" is just too good to resist. It's a difficult choice I look forward to making every time. Why they get a 10/10: My ratings of just about everything in life are based on three pillars that Camellia Cafe nails: 1. Kindness: They treat everyone with respect the moment they walk through the door, regardless of how they look or what's in their wallet. 2. Values: It's clear that while money is a reality of business, it isn't the only thing driving them. There is heart here. 3. Consistency of Character: You can tell the kindness isn't a "performance" for customers it's a reflection of how they treat their staff, their family, and themselves. Great Character combined with respect is what works here. I'll be back because of that and i guarantee that anyone else who takes the time to go in and dine. Yeh, they will definitely be back too.

The lady that brought out my order was quite nice and I left fairly quickly. When I got back to the hotel, I cut into the Stromboli and I've never seen one so damn skimpy on the fillings. They should advertise it as baked pizza. I wasn't impressed with the pizza either. Mushy and flopped so bad that we had to eat it with two hands. Take a look at my picture and you can see that we only got one or two pepperonis per slice. Definitely not a place we'll go to again.
