Fried Red Snapper and Ribeye.

First time visiting Albany, and dining at The Flint set the tone. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere, welcoming staff, and owner set the perfect tone for the evening. But the food--absolutely unbelievable. I had the fried red snapper, which was seasoned and cooked to perfection. My boyfriend got the ribeye, and it was so flavorful, juicy, and buttery that it didn't need a drop of steak sauce. Exceptional overall experience--we'll definitely be back!

Really cool place. The inside was huge. Lots of tables and lots of room. The young lady took me to my table was very nice. I was placed in a booth that could fit a family of 5. I was by myself. The table was very sticky. It was "clean" and it was off putting. Had almost like a film on it Jordon arrived at the table not long after. She bright my Pepsi and took my order. Than I didn't see her for a while. My drink was empty for at least ten minutes. She brought my food and was walking away before I asked for a refill she wasn't very attentive. She may have had other tables, but I didn't see any. Burger and fries were delivered. Not sure if my food was waiting in the window for a bit but it didn't taste super fresh. Fries were fine at best and the burger was decent. Absolutely not worth $25. It was a $25 meal that was worth about $15 bucks. Had big hopes for this place. Left disappointed. Maybe thats why it wasn't so busy on a Tuesday night?

We enjoyed ourselves at the Flint.

Visited here on our first trip to Albany for a wedding. It was within walking distance from our hotel and we were really hungry after a 3 hour drive from Atlanta. The staff was very nice and our waiter was very friendly, nice and accommodating. Seemed to be a pretty popular place to have some food or also celebrate. The food was delicious and as this would be the only time we would be here we tried as much as we could: the ribeye, oxtails, cornbread, and mac n cheese. All very tasty and well seasoned. Also, they had Sir Davis whiskey that has been pretty hard to find in our state of Arizona. Overall great place and would come back again!

Fried Catfish, Fries

What an amazing find! Out on a date night in Albany and tried The Flint out and we were blown away! I ordered the 12 ounce ribeye medium rare which truly rivaled a lot of great high dollar steaks I have ever had. I had a salad with ranch and baked Mac n cheese as sides and they were both excellent. The lady ordered Fried Catfish which she also loved. The sweet tea was fantastic and was plenty sweet for the true sweet tea lovers of the world! Service was excellent! I truly don't know how this place isn't packed nightly. Best restaurant by far in Albany and one of if not the best restaurant I have had in the state of Georgia!

Fried Catfish

The food was fresh and delicious. The fried catfish was fried to perfection. The band was amazing. Overall awesome time celebrating my 40th Deltaversary at The Flint!! We will be back.!!!

OMG! This place is amazing! They won the restaurant of the year! The fried green tomatoes, shrimp stir fry, creamed spinach was amazing!!!!

Anything Vegan in this restaurant?

Yes! Me and my husband actually spoke to the chef and he had a beyond burger patty that he put together for us. If it's not on the menu I think you just ask for it and he'll have it ready for you. He was super nice about it and ready to attend to…

This place is TRULY a hidden gem! I couldn't quit gawking at all the decor, from the floor to the…read moreceilings, everything is immaculately decorated. (won't even bother posting pics because they don't do it justice) The bartender was not only hilarious but added stories and details about some of the artwork, the handmade chandelier in the entryway, my cosmo recipe being the original recipe from back in like the early 1900's. LUVED her. They had a large wedding party the night before and they were out of a lot of drinks and some food items however the way she presented it to us, was again hilarious so we truly didn't even mind. Food and service were excellent. We were the last people to shut down brunch on a Sunday afternoon.

First off, the atmosphere was incredible. This restaurant was opened in a remodeled old theater and…read morethey really went all out to make it a very, very cool environment. We were greeted immediately upon walking in. It was not very busy for Saturday night, but there was a local event going on which I think kept a lot of people away. Our server was Heather, and she could not have been any nicer or more attentive. She really went out of her way to make sure that we had a nice time and recommended walking around the restaurant and checking out some of the other spaces that had been remodeled interestingly. If you visit, make sure you do that. It's definitely worth your time. There were three of us in our party and we each ordered a different meal. The first meal was the salmon and green beans and the salmon was very good, the green beans with some of the best any of us had ever had. The second meal was the hamburger steak with onion gravy, and mashed potatoes. Also, a very good meal. The gravy was really tasty and the potatoes were done very well. The last meal was the chicken fettuccine and it also was good and very filling. One thing to note is all of the portions are pretty large, particularly the hamburger steak and the fettuccine both of which required take-home containers. My only complaint about the entire experience was paying the bill. There is a cash price and a credit card price. This is a pain point for me personally. I generally don't do business with companies that charge a fee to use a credit card and I'm not sure I would return to this particular restaurant partially because of that and well partially because I don't live in the state of Georgia. My feeling is if you feel you need to charge that extra fee, then don't take credit cards. I don't think that's fair to customers to have to pay that extra fee just for using a credit card. I'm really only pointing this out because this is the third time in a week that I've been to a business where they're charging an additional fee and I feel that if as consumers, we don't start pushing back on this, we're gonna see this continue in more and more businesses out there. I understand that they have to pay a fee to take a credit card, but what they're not taking consideration is, if they didn't take credit cards, their business would be severely impacted as well because not as many people would go there for that reason that they don't take credit cards. OK, so now that the negative stuff is out of the way, Ill repeat and say that this really is a great restaurant for the reasons already discussed. The service was fantastic, the atmosphere was wonderful and the food was tasty with large portions. it was only that issue of the credit card fee that really put a damper on it for me. Overall would I recommend The Palace, absolutely.

We started with the Wisconsin Cheese Bites which were SO good. Basically like normal Mozzarella Cheese Sticks, except bite sized. Probably my favorite thing about the visit! I got the New Orleans Pasta and my husband ordered the Country Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes and red beans and rice. My pasta was really good, but the sausage kinda got to me after a few bites. You ever try something and it's fine at first, but the more you eat it, you're like, "ummm, maybe not..."? My husband loved the chicken, but was disappointed to see the red beans and rice had bell peppers and onions in it. I tried them myself and ehh, they weren't the best. Maybe we had Popeye's red beans and rice as the expectation. Still, overall a good experience and we'd definitely go back.

It's on a strip of businesses that are not very eye popping…read more You can see the sign from the road but again it's hard to tell if it's a restaurant or another business. The size of the restaurant is not very big. Maybe 10 tables max and u would never know it's a restaurant but the wall decor and bar setup made it friendly and comfortable. What really earned the four stars from me is the service and the food. Our server was a one woman wrecking crew. Started out as the only table of four with a few people at the bar, to 7 tables full and more bar guests. Our server handled it all with a friendly positive attitude never losing her cool and remained sweet the entire time. Having a spicy tongue I was glad to see they had hot wings. What most people don't know about this restaurant is that they have a sauce known as the hottest pepper in the world, Carolina Reaper. I was amazed they had it as almost no one does. I had to try it. We also ordered the Sampler which included 3 appetizers from the choice of 7, and Roosters which is their version of baked oysters with Parmesan, bacon and jalapeños. Back to the Carolina reaper wings. We were real nervous to try them cuz again your talking about the hottest pepper in the world. Wasn't a terrible hotness to them. Outside lips burned a little and only ate 3 so I could eat everything else. I felt that it should have been spicier but also know that a few more wings ilI might have felt the hotness a lot more. All in all we liked the place. Small comfortable and even have live entertainment. Gonna make this a regular spot while we are here in Albany.
