Shrimp & snow crab combo
Surelyne L.

Decided to check them out for lunch. It had the usual casual seafood restaurant vibe...all dark wood & nautical decor. It was very quiet when we were there. Our server, Phoenix, was great at explaining about the food and ensuring that our drinks were filled. We ordered the lunch special of shrimp & snow crab with the Juicy Special seasoning which Phoenix explained was a mix of garlic butter, lemon pepper & Cajun seasoning. Personally I felt that the food had a nice kick but was a bit too salty and too oily. It was drowning in butter & both the corn & the shrimp were a bit overcooked. Overall, it was just an ok experience for me.

Recently ordered online for pickup and it was very easy. I ordered a Hungry Fest - mild & Juicy Special. Website explained combo in detail and was able to use Apple Pay to check out. When I arrived at the restaurant in the pickup I noticed a sign saying the Hungry Fest was $28.99, but I was charged $34. No real issue, was just a question, but she said it was because I ordered via DoorDash even though I used the website to skip the 3rd party fees. I have had the restaurant prior to though. Recommendations besides Hungry Feast: Thursdays with DJ Ron: 12/10 GREAT vibe; music & a fun time Calamari: 8/10 Wings: 5/10 Fried Catfish Basket: 8/10 Shrimp Basket: 8/10 Fries: 9/10 Additional Info: -broccoli added to menu Giving restaurants 3/5 because it is a hit or miss.

Gravel in my food!

I have dined in and ordered out more times than I can count. This evening I ordered crab legs and shrimp to go. When I get home, I poured the contents of my boil into an empty bowl. I look down a find a rock the width of a dime with the thicknesses of 6 dimes. I understand that this food comes from the ocean, but a blind man could see this huge piece of gravel when preparing my boil. Thank God I didn't actually bite into this! I would most definitely have a chipped tooth at the least. I don't usually post negative comments or reviews, but this is too much! I threw my whole order out from paranoia of accidentally biting a smaller piece of rock.

# 10 Special- . Never eat out of bag before, but SO GOOD
Keri S.

Our visit was wonderfully delicious. Not sure why the bad reviews, but aside from the price (which is all food now) it was super good. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. We even got the Mon - Wed special which saved use some . I will visit again.

Boil Bag!
Zoe W.

The boiled seafood bags are a must!! Every single item (crab, corn, potato, and shrimp!) was excellent. Also, they had a lady DJ who was so fun! She made the atmosphere like a club with good music and lots of shoutouts. Definitely would go back.

Stopped here on the road from Savannah to Atlanta for some authentic shrimp and grits…read more Appetizer fried green tomatoes were DELICIOUS! We've been fried green tomato'ing it across Georgia and loving them. This simple looking plate was exceptionally seasoned, perhaps the tomatoes were even marinated. There was just so much flavor! So - the shrimp and grits! These were Cajun/creole style so not traditional but very tasty! Hard to describe the sauce - maybe a bit smokey, a bit sweet. I don't know the flavors I was tasting. It wasn't punch your face flavor but a well-crafted smooth full flavored bite! The sausage in it particularly stood out! Delicious! Hubby had the shrimp Po Boy, and wow! Honestly, it was even better! Large shrimp, really well seasoned and crusted with cornmeal batter. The bread roll was the best! Soft, tasty, just made the Po Boy easy to eat, unlike most who just throw the shrimp on a chewy cut of French bread. This was truly superior! And the side of beans and rice?? Best best best evahhhh! The service was really good. Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. EXCEPT: Why were the grits served to me with grits dripping off the side of the bowl? The server even turned the dripping side towards me and placed it in front of me like that. I took a napkin and started cleaning the bowl so the grits wouldn't accidentally touch my dress, and the server just watched. Didn't offer to clean it or replace it. I was a server in another life. I know that isn't acceptable. I don't serve friends and family a plate or bowl that's dripping off the side. I don't expect that at restaurant. But, I consider it a one off. Mistakes happen. I cleaned. I ate it. And the grits were good. Atmosphere: The place was dark and sexy. Cool atmosphere. But I had to knock it several stars for the women's bathroom. In addition to it generally being basic. Not "dirt" but not clean feeling. A giant tile was missing from the ceiling directly over the toilet! Talk about feeling naked and like someone is spying on you! I couldn't wait to get out of there! It's clear that there is maintenance needed in the ceiling and that's why the tile is missing. But no good reason why they can't put a cloth cover or some kind of screen to cover the hole. It is entirely uncomfortable and unacceptable. Hopefully that issue will be fixed soon. And they will also take the time to upgrade the bathroom feeling - nice soap, luxurious paper hand towels, deep clean the floor and walls. Then the entire restaurant will be cohesive, elegant, sexy, cool.

My experience started off a little rocky, but they made up for it abundantly. It took a moment to…read morebe served after I received my water, but after that my experience improved. Jarvis was amazing! He madebme a delicious blackberry mocktail. I started with the crab claws, which were delicious but I feel like they should be served with bread. The pasta was very flavokfuk. My only feedback is the bread was a tad too salty, which I told the chef when he greeted us. The chef was very nice and that was an awesome touch. The decor is super cute and New Orleans themed. They even have a Saints sign inside. I enjoyed my meal and will be back to try more of the menu.

Because of the wait time, I guess the vibe here is more "sit down to order and eat" than ordering and grabbing food to go. Unfortunately, the beignets were not good at all. I was soooo bummed. I lived in New Orleans for a while for work, so I've had my fair share of them. These were very large and very dense/doughy. Ours didn't have any crispness to them. It honestly tasted kind of like a bland piece of lightly fried and reheated French bread. Unfortunately, the worst part was the after taste. It's almost like they were fried along with other seafood/dinner items, or maybe the oil was bad? I'm not sure, but there were 3 of us eating them and we all agreed they just had a very unpleasant after taste. We ended up throwing them away after no one finished a single one. I'm also a little confused by the vibe. It seems like they want to be family friendly but it also feels like they only want to cater to those leaving the bars at midnight? Service was friendly, so I hate to leave such a rough review, but sadly the beignets need a lot of help.

This is by far one of my favorite places to dine. The customer service and the food are excellent…read more I recommend this restaurant to all that are near and dear to Macon. The food and drinks don't disappoint. Every time I step foot into this restaurant I am treated with the upmost respect. The food is made fresh to order. Great job goes out to the people who work and run this restaurant.

I visited Cashman's Pub on Wing & Whiskey Wednesday and had a mixed experience overall…read more Let's start with the positives: the food was excellent. The Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls were just as amazing as I remembered, and the wings were cooked well. The food is definitely the highlight and the main reason I'll be returning to try more menu items. However, there were several areas that could use improvement. I ordered a tequila and pineapple juice drink, but it tasted watered down and lacked balance. It fell flat and wasn't very enjoyable. The blue cheese also wasn't appetizing and didn't pair well with my lemon pepper wings. I ended up using ranch instead, and I believe I was still charged for the blue cheese. The service was pleasant but inconsistent. My server was friendly and polite, which is why I still left a decent tip, but she didn't check on me as often as expected. I also found it unusual that I had to send my tip through Cash App because their payment system doesn't allow tips to be added directly to the receipt. That process felt inconvenient and outdated. The atmosphere has a lot of potential. The building itself is beautiful, and I love the overall ambiance. However, the seating could use some attention. I wore shorts, and the booth cushions were worn enough that they scratched my legs. The restaurant could also benefit from having a host or hostess. When you walk in, you're left to find your own seat, and there doesn't seem to be much guidance for guests. It appeared that there was only one server covering the dining area when I visited around 4:30-5:00 PM. While it wasn't particularly busy, having additional wait staff and a dedicated host would likely improve the customer experience significantly. The staff seemed nice and professional overall, but the restaurant would benefit from additional training, staffing, and a more organized front-of-house operation. Overall, I'd rate my experience 3.5 out of 5 stars. The food is absolutely on point and keeps me coming back, but improvements in service, seating, and guest hospitality would make a big difference. Cashman's Pub has tremendous potential, and with a few adjustments, it could easily become one of the area's top dining spots.
