    So it's cool that they have a drive thru on Washington road. That definitely makes it convenient. The staff was nice and friendly so I'd be willing to come back and try some other food but what I ordered was kinda bland. We got Pho and it just didn't do anything for me. Lacking in flavor and meat wasn't good at all. I'll have to come back and try something else on the menu.

    I love this place. The people are so friendly! The portions are big and the food satisfies my cravings when I want something quick but not necessarily fast food. It's a chill spot for your lunch break if you work near Washington Rd. You can even call ahead and pick your order up at the drive thru. They have hibachi items and Vietnamese food as well. The pho isn't the best but it's pretty good and I really enjoy the chicken wings (kinda tastes like char siu) It's a humble family owned business.

    Very decent food for a good price. Everything averages $10, fast and friendly service too. Don't expect anything too high end, great place to grab a quick bite

    Spring Rolls

    We got pho, spring rolls, and fried rice w/ chicken and shrimp to go. I thought price for the fried rice was kinda steep at ~19. Broth for pho was served at great temperature but was a bit too sweet for my liking. The rare steak was gamey but brisket was very tender. Cravings satisfied!

    Not exactly screaming "stop here" on the outside, and it's on a super busy section of Washington Road. Vietnamese fare at an affordable price with very generous portions. I've only had the Pho, though. Service is super - the ladies are friendly and helpful. My order came out very quickly both times I've been here during lunch, and it isn't packed. I put it at four instead of five because it is a little raggedy (but clean!) and the women's toilet needs to be updated.

    The fried rice I ordered didn't look anything at all like cooked rice. I sat the vegetables in it but it didn't look appetizing really. Wound up going somewhere else. Better luck next time.

    Visited here the other day before catching a movie and it was great. I was a little skeptical based on the outside, but upon ordering my mind changed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I checked out the menu and was happy to see they you can make their hibachi dishes low carb for a $1 extra. This is cool as some places will look at me like I'm crazy when I request this. They also have a drive thru which is good if you are in a rush. The food itself came fast and was good. I would say the shrimp and chicken combo is a little pricey for the amount you get, but just getting the teriyaki/hibachi chicken entrees are well worth it. They give you larger than average chunks of chicken in their hibachi, which was nice. They also aren't stingy with their white sauce, giving you a 4oz cup included in with their hibachi entrees.

    The pho menu.

    Ambience. C+ Service. B Food. B Price. A Japanese and Vietnamese cuisine. They cook Japanese hibachi style and also have Vietnamese pho and bun. I come for the pho as they offer tendon and tripe as options! Not much for ambience with bright fluorescence lighting, but clean. 4 tv's setup in each of the 4 corners in the dining room. I'll assume you can request to change the channel if you ask nicely. Service is friendly and accommodating if they don't get too busy. The nice lady explained options on how to order. There's also a drive up window. She was nice checking on us and helping to bag up leftovers if she wasn't busy. Otherwise, go back to the counter to get any requests. Today I ordered the large Pho #2. Rare steak, brisket, flank, tendon and tripe. $8.29. And comes with lime, bean sprouts and jalepeno. Hmm. Where was the fresh basil? I forgot to ask. Very flavorful broth and needed to stir the noodles as they clumped together and needed to loosen them up. I also like the fried fish entree. It was a good portion with fried rice and steamed carrots and broccoli. Like the mayo dressing that accompanies the meal. $7.99. Price is good for what you get. I'll come back.

    Was looking for Pho, and it looks like this is the only place in town. Thankfully the Pho and the spring rolls are excellent. The only negative from the food is that I really like cilantro with my Pho and they did moot offer it. While the building is a little run down, and I am not a fan of the "Golf Channel" on tv, the people were friendly and they had a constant stream of business both inside and at the drive thru. The only other issue I had was that no one came back by to check on me or refill my water while I ate. Overall a good experience and I know I will eat here again soon. -------------------------- 11/7/11 - second visit. Flavorful and filling. They did let me change the TV so I could watch the Bears game. Note that once again after I got my meal, they never came bak to check on me to see if I needed any more water. So keep that in mind if you eat here. I will be back here to eat again.

    Tonight we're here for Bonefish Grill's July 4-Course "Taste of Paradise" Cocktail Pairing Dinner"…read more Tonight's event was well attended, but there were lots of available seats left over. First Course: Coconut shrimp paired with an Orchid Isle - The rum-based cocktail was delicious with hints of lychee's and ginger but too sweet for my tastes. The shrimp were well done and pineapple glaze was a perfect accompaniment. Second Course: Grilled Scallops and Mango salad paired with a Jungle Bird - The drink arrived first and it was a delicious concoction made with Meyers Rum and pineapple. Would definitely order this again. The salad benefited from having tender grilled scallops, goat cheese, chopped mango and red bell peppers dressed with a tangy vinaigrette. Delicious! Third Course: Blackened Unicorn fish with corn salsa paired with Tahitian Remedy. The fish was SPICY! Fortunately the Tahitian Remedy eased the pain. Fourth Course: Guava crème brûlée paired with Passion Pearl Diver. Another divine drink with Myers Rum orange and passion fruit juices. Hopefully this one also joins the permanent menu. The crème brûlée was good but the 'not quite ripe' mango detracts a bit from the experience. Overall this was one of the better tasting menu offerings from Bonefish. I I'm glad I came and and will be looking forward to the next time.

    This Bonefish location in the past was one of the best and is now one of the worst !…read more We recently purchased a large take out order that was pretty much inedible and instead of writing a bad review I called and spoke to the managing partner Damitria who was apologetic and asked me to speak with her in person the next time I came in and she "would make it right". I personally and by myself went in for a late lunch at 3;00 pm on 9/16/26 when it was not busy and spent about One hundred dollars on my meal and one to take home. I did in fact introduce myself to Damitria who subsequently did nothing to "make it right" as promised. I can only attribute the serious decline in quality of food and service to poor management. Damitria was a younger person who obviously has a lot to learn. I strongly recommend that you not waste your money at this now sub par restaurant, I know I never will moving forward.

    Rae's was recommended to us by a long time Augusta resident. I'm glad we went to try it out, but…read moredoubtful we'd go back. We loved the divey, local vibe. Fun, comfortable environment. Server was lovely and everything arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. Food was a 3. No more. The shrimp and grits were really a big miss. I read where it said casserole and I was fully expecting a new (for me) twist on shrimp and grits - but it was not good. Dry baked grits with maybe three shrimp total and a few tiny piece of crab. No sauce, no cheese on top - nothing. Was very very odd indeed - more like cornbread or spoon bread with zero flavor. My husband ordered a steak and it was good, so there was some redemption there. I will say, one major restaurant pet peeve for me is when the first thing you smell when you open the door is air freshener. The bathrooms are right by the door and they have a fake cherry air freshener smell pumping out from them. So that's what you get hit with when you walk in. I don't know the solution to this type of layout, but strong air freshener isn't it.

    Well, here I am in "The Deep South" in Augusta, South Carolina waiting to go to the Masters…read moreTournament tomorrow in Augusta, Georgia. Rae's Coastal Cafe is my usual first stop restaurant for some scrumptious vittles south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Our Jerk chicken wings were a great start for our first dinner on this adventure. Our (us three golfers) salads were good. Our crab cakes were very good! Our chocolate pudding pie was great. My three fingers of Makers Mark was excellent. We sat outside by their lake where the peace and quiet were throughly enjoyed. Our waitress was friendly and helpful choosing the combinations that made this dinner delightful.
