For example, you can have a root beer float but not a ginger beer float even though they have ginger beer. You can only get 4 things on your pizza, not 5. No substitutions on the specialty pizzas. Sometimes the service is amazing but sometimes not. Don't get there within half hour of closing because they want to be gone at closing time. Ambiance is beautiful!

Larry's is an institution, the kind where you don't say the full name of the restaurant and…read moreeveryone knows what you are referring to. Kind of like a Brazilian soccer star. We are all on a first name basis. Larry's is hot dogs and ice cream, the soft kind with lots of sprinkle options. Every other item is a supporting cast member. Lots of folks go for the chili dog footlong version. I'm not against it, just more than I can navigate in the car as the drive through is the default for many at Larry's. So if you are on your way home and don't care about the stains on your shirt, get the chili sauce, raw onions and cheddar cheese. Otherwise maybe just old school it with a single mustard or ketchup topping. There is an ample dining room and for my family it holds a story as my father and my son would stop there for a dog, an ice cream and a story between after school events each Wednesday. Definitely imprinted memories for both of them.

Jackie O's Public House is great for a casual beer in exposed brick dark high tops kinda hang…read more Jackie O's beer is a stout pillar of the Athens brewing scene. But I write today to praise the Public House for its private party hosting. We just celebrated a big birthday for my wife with 40+ friends. Jackie O's uptown is central, everyone knows it, and it has history for so many of us. In my case going back to the 80s when it was still O'Hooley's and I'd meet my Dad there Friday afternoons after school when he and his colleagues would kick off the end of the work week. It still plays that role for many in this college town. But back to the private party. Chelsea was a pleasure to work with, entertaining all my questions about combinations from the catering menu, deciding on open bar with cocktails, without, just beer and wine, ticket system etc. All are options depending on your crowd and your budget. We went full open bar and mercifully our friends took it easy on us in the 6-8pm timeslot we reserved the whole place for. We went with a combo of meats, cheeses, fruit, veggies that you can get at a per person rate minimum 20. We then also go some of each of the five pizza options. We had leftovers but not a bad thing. For dessert, we had the option to bring in our own cake, but instead tried their chocolate and snickerdoodle parfaits that went down very well. It isn't something you do every month or every year. But it really worked for us for a big birthday and we've attended a number of great work networking receptions there as well. And finally, as many know, Art Oestrike the owner of Jackie O's is a leader in investing in community and sustainability, delivering a creative and quality product and experience whether that is in the three Athens locations or Jackie O's on Fourth in Columbus. A business and team worth supporting.

Went to Jackie O's tonight with a couple of friends for the first time. I ordered the Appalachian…read more It was fine, but nothing to write home about. We got cheese curds to start. One friend ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and got a fruity vinaigrette instead. Another friend ordered a burger and they forgot the bacon. A third friend asked for his burger well-done, but it came out medium, also with no bacon. When he asked the server if it looked well-done, she said she didn't know what well-done looks like. He asked if she could get a new one so he wouldn't get sick, and she said she'd check with the kitchen. No apology. It took 25 minutes for the new burger to come out, and by then we had been there for over an hour and a half. When she finally brought it out, she asked if he wanted a box to take it home. Still no bacon on the burger. Also, no apology again. Overall, not a great experience. Will not be back.

Visited this establishment once during a Sunday brunch and loved the environment. The ambiance of…read morethe place was cozy and welcoming. The customer service was exceptional. The food was really tasty and comforting, however my only issue are the prices of buffet. That's the only reason I'm giving 4 stars. (Plus I can't quite give 4.5, otherwise they'd get 4.5 stars rather than 4.) If it's in your affordability, I'd recommend stopping for a bite with your family or group of friends. (Note: The roasted brussel sprouts & little flaky danishes are DELICIOUS!)

The service was good seated quick on a high top and the server got our orders in fast and the food was out as well. The Mac n cheese eggrolls were new and interesting. Outside was crispy and crunchy and you bite into a soft Mac n cheese pieces. I ordered the my first rodeo sandwich. It came with chicken, bacon, jalapeños, and the side of vegetables for the sandwich lettuce, tomatoes, onion. The chips are their speciality homemade kettle chips. Those were savory and crunchy. I think they can do a better job with sharing daily specials for the food I know they specialize in beer but I did not try any. Server jumped quick into starting us with drinks. Especially for a tourist like me there should be a welcome since this is a very dandy spot to have a restaurant. So service was a 2/5 food was a 3/5.

My husband and I each got a flight of beers to try and a classic hotdog with onion and peppers added, though I opted for mustard as an additional topping and he opted for sauerkraut. We got each of our pups a plain hotdog and the man at the food truck was so sweet and pre-cut them into pieces for us to feed them. We can't wait to come back a third time, they are just so good! Staff is always super friendly as well. The bathrooms are clean and have really fun chalkboard walls to leave funny messages or cute memories.
