I wish I could give 5 stars. the food was good, service was good, clean and attractive facility. However, the place was so very loud. I could not hear my companions and we had to shout to be heard at all. The acoustics are just awful. This was in the big room in the middle, When I made the reservation I asked for a table by the front window where it is a little quieter, but apparently they could not accommodate us. I really don't know if I will go back. Very disappointing, I came because I wanted to spend time with my family members, but sitting in a very loud room, unable to hold a real conversation, ending up with a headache - no thank you. read more

This was my first time trying 1885 Grill Acworth. It was a Tuesday evening and the atmosphere is casual but nice. I ordered the fried green tomatoes and they're served with pimento cheese and a very mild chow chow, rainbow trout and a caesar salad. My only complaint is that the lettuce in the salad was extremely brown. I'm surprised that no one noticed that prior to serving it but overall the meal was great. As the evening progressed the restaurant became a little crowded but I didn't notice anyone waiting. My server (young female) was very nice and attentive. If she was sure of something she would go and ask instead of guessing and misinforming. The restroom was nice and clean. I will definitely return and recommend to others. read more

The food was ok, the service was excellent and the ambiance was nice. The drinks were not good. The Christmas peppermint martinis were more like having a dessert did not taste like a drink. I did not like the table that they put behind the wall. It makes you feel like you're not part of the restaurant. read more

Great experience with both dining in and carry out. Great drinks and service! The salted Carmel cheesecake was amazing . Great ribs and wings. read more

Visited this place for a nice work lunch and really enjoyed it. It was actually quite busy this Monday at 11:30 or so, but we were seated quickly and the server arrived promptly and got our drink orders. Upon returning with our drinks she took our orders. We ordered the Pimento Cheese and Fried Okra, Hush Puppies (double order), and Fried Green Tomatoes for apps. The apps were really good. The pimento cheese was absolutely delicious, however the fried okra was a little greasy but still really good. The hush puppies with honey butter were super tasty! The fried green tomatoes were good, but next time I'd order it without the the chow-chow. I ordered the Acworth Hot Chicken which came with collard greens, pimento cheese grits, and a little serving of corn bread. The collard greens were pretty good, perfectly cooked, and great when paired with the corn bread. The pimento cheese grits were absolutely phenomenal! The chicken breast was delicious. It was juicy, expertly fried, and nicely coated with the hot honey. It was not really all that hot, but rather mildly spiced so most should feel safe ordering it. Lastly, one of my co-workers let me try a slice of her Sloppy Dog. The dog itself was great and grilled to perfection. However, it comes covered with sloppy joe meat. If you're expecting a chili dog experience, this isn't that. The sloppy joe is sweet and a truly different taste than chili. Not bad, just don't expect chili like I did. All in all, I'd definitely come back to try a lot of the other offerings they have. read more

Great service. No wait time. The Venue has a rustic meets modern look. Drinks are strong but good flavor. The actual food was decent but not as fresh and flavorful as I expected. The Sea bass did not taste very fresh which was disappointing because it was listed as the Chef's special. The collard greens were good just needed more salt.The Acworth Hot Chicken was cooked crispy and perfect but was actually not spicy at all, it was a more of a sweet honey flavor. Pimento cheese grits were awesome with an explosion of flavor. read more

What a great place! The atmosphere is lively yet chill, especially around the bar area. The live music was a nice vibe. When was the last time that you heard purple rain performed live? The food has flare and flavor! The 1885 Burger is elevated! Indescribably delicious. That pimento cheese blend on the burger is delectable. The fries were a bit soggy (note to self: order crispy next time), but the burger made up for it! The wings are some of the best that I've had, worth a try, don't miss out. The service was impeccable. I can't wait to come back and try the fried chicken with that hot honey sauce! read more

Our first time there. We decided, 7pm dinner for 5. On a busy Saturday, let's make reservations. We arrived 10 mins before our reservation & unfortunately did not get seated until 720pm. Appetizers were pretty spot on. Calamari was amazing. Entire table loved it. Southern nachos & wings were shared. Unfortunately the main course wasn't as delightful. We had to send back 2 of the 5 meals to be redone. The ribeye was asked for medium & was sent well. The pasta was ask for no Parmesan & unfortunately, was loaded with Parm. Desserts, we asked for 1 Pecan Pie & 1 Blueberry creme brûlée. 2 pecan pies were sent out. Understanding it's a Saturday & they're busy. However, the service didn't quite sit right with us. read more

Great place to meet up with friends! They take reservations. The service was friendly. Not the best on refills, and attention, we had to wave down a couple times. And my personal pet peeve, don't leave plates on the table when the customer is done. The food was very tasty. The grilled chicken on my salad was very moist and delicious. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal. It was a great place to hang out with friends and enjoy some wine. If you're in the area, I would definitely give them a chance. It seemed like a very hopping in place for Acworth. Will be back if we are in the area. read more

The food here is just okay. The ambiance is nice though, but nothing stands out with the taste of the food.

Great food and atmosphere Service was outstanding for such a big crowd I would return read more

Went recently on a Tuesday evening around 730p. 30min wait to be seated. Been here several times. Actually had my birthday hosted here a couple of years ago which was fine. The place was loud but not overly so and you can tell it's a local favorite. Each time I've visited, we've always ordered the Shrimp and Crawfish Étouffée. It did not come with enough rice which is weird as that's the cheapest thing you could put in the plate. It was like they just dumped it in there when in the past you'd get a mound of rice. Thought that was odd. It was spicy but not so much that you're panting for water. I m think it'd be great if we didn't have to shell the shrimp but that's neither here nor there. Got the empanadas as an appetizer and it was just ok to me... not enough seasoning/salt. Will pass on it next time. Dessert was a pecan pie bread pudding with a small scoop of ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream. It was really sweet... very delicious. I would recommend it but maybe with a bigger scoop of ice cream. read more

It's a delectable find in the Acworth area. I was really impressed with the fried okra and pimento cheese appetizer. It certainly hit the spot. I do wish the okra would've had some salt on it.

We celebrated a birthday at this location tonight. I've been to the location in Kennesaw, which was great! The Acworth location wasn't so great. On a positive note, we had a reservation and our table was ready for us. Most of the food tasted good! My point of this review is to express the disappointment in the salmon portion. It's priced too high for the 1.5" (literally) sliver of grilled salmon! We added shrimp and got 5 for $8. I think the generous portion sizes of the other dishes are great! But I don't recommend the salmon. At. All. The atmosphere isn't worth the price. read more

If you like salmon you have to order it here- I had the Chilean salmon today and I was blown away. I rarely say that about food but this was the best salmon I've ever had. It comes cooked how you like it (I got medium). I hadn't been asked that before about salmon but our waiter said they are able to cook it different ways since it's sushi-grade salmon. Good quality clearly. My cousin and I came for lunch and had a good experience. Service was pretty good but our waiter seemed a bit stretched thin. The food is definitely what makes this a 5 star review. Location is convenient, parking is easy, and the ambiance is very nice. I highly recommend coming here. read more

We have been to 1885 many times. It is always fantastic! Savannah was a great server, very friendly and recommended the buffalo shrimp which were delicious. Note to mgt please add it to your menu. We had ribeyes and salmon which were as good as can get. Overall a great dinner and evening. read more

Wonderful neighborhood find. We have been to this location 3 times in as many weeks. I have had a date night for 2, a birthday celebration for about 20 and another date night for 2 couples- everyone of them were GREAT meals with expert service. I could spend a lot of time talking about the food, drinks and exceptional service, but just enjoy the pics. I would suggest making a reservation- it stays pretty busy. Ask for AJ - great waitress who just turned 21!! Show her and this great restaurant some love. Great neighborhood find!! read more

The experience here was great. Our waitress (Jennifer) was kind and attentive. We sat at the bar where you can see the kitchen staff doing their thing and they delivered. Even one of the cooks asked if all was well with our food. The manager also came to speak to us and he was such a gentleman. Regarding the food, everything was 10/10. The only thing is that for our steak dinner, the portions were too small; so, just have that in mind. I definitely recommend this place for good food and ambiance. read more

1885 grill is absolutely one of our favorite places to eat in the area! They have an amazing selection of great food, always cooked to perfection. The blacked chicken pasta is a staple that you will love. For apps make sure you try the wings with their award winning sauce, they are some of the best! For dessert, the bread pudding served with ice cream is one of my favorite desserts period (and I'm a big dessert guy)! If you are looking for a fun place to grab lunch or sit down for a nice dinner, this is it! The restaurant is always immaculately clean with great service! read more

Went here for brunch after a hike nearby by and was pleasantly surprised from the quality of the food! Everything was great and fast. The sloppy joes were over hyped by our waiter but still good. Our waiter was friendly and fast. They do take Apple Pay which is good bc someone in our group forgot their physical card. None of us ordered drinks but from seeing other peoples it looked good. I love the French fries and the home made biscuits! read more

Wanted to try a new restaurant with my Dad so we decided to go to Downtown Acworth to try 1885. The restaurant is very nice and clean, as it is only a year old. I ordered the 1885 Burger and my dad ordered the baby back ribs. The burger was honestly great, although a little too salty. The reason I gave the 3 stars was because of the service. I'm usually not critical of the service of restaurants especially now since pretty much everywhere is short staff. But the service here wasn't great. Our waitress didn't really check in on us to refill our waters, when our food arrived we spent about 10 minutes waiting before we could eat because we didn't have any silverware. We weren't asked if we needed condiment until half way into our meal. I've been to other restaurants that were short staffed, but the service was still great. I probably won't come back to 1885 for a while, or if I do I'll order the food to go. Hope this was helpful, You're welcome! read more

Waitress seemed annoyed that I asked for containers to put my sauce in. She said I should have asked for two. Clearly I had two sauces.

Food is always on point! Service is awesome, a great place to meet up with family n friends. Go ahead! You'll love this place.

No matter what you order you have to order the pimento grits. I was skeptical since I am not a huge grits fan but now I am trying to recreate the recipe at home. read more

Good Food, Small Servings, High Prices This was my first trip into this place as my normal go to restaurant in town was closed today. I had seen this place when we played at the park across the field. I thought we would give it a shot. I ordered the blackened chicken pasta and found it to have a really good 4.5 stars sauce to it. The downside of this dishes I would give it two stars for serving size for a grown man. It was a good size for a woman but if you're a hungry man, you'll be left disappointed by $21 pasta that leaves you needing to eat something afterwards. There was a bunch of sauce left over so I asked the waitress if I could get some buns or bread or something since I was still a little hungry and I could mop up my sauce with it. She told me they don't have bread or buns or rolls or anything that I could have , so that was that. OK no one was doing anything really bad, but it wasn't amazing either. All in all, this was my first trip in, and I'm quite certain it was also my last. read more

Just had an awesome dinner here. Traveling in a moving truck with my sister (we're no spring chickens) we were tired, hungry and looking for a good sit down dinner. This place did not disappoint. From the greeting and guidance (we were looking for a hotel after dinner) at the door, the staff was kind and helpful. Kudos to our server Camila. I had the 7 0z filet mignon which was mouthwatering, my sister had the blackened chicken linguine. Awesome. Highly recommend you stop here! read more

We first tried 1885 grill at a taste of Kennesaw in October. We were impressed so decided to give them a try. We were not disappointed! The restaurant is absolutely beautiful! I love the fact that they have a place for you to leave business cards. As a local realtor, I love places that support local businesses! I can't remember the name of our server but she was really nice and provided great service. The food was really really tasty! I'm always hesitant to order Salmon, as there are so few places that can actually cook salmon properly. 1885 got it right and it was so flavorful! All of the food was really good! We will definitely go back! read more

I've have been wanting to give this place a try for a while and finally was able to make it in. Overall the ambiance is nice and the service is good. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly, so four stars for service. The food was just okay, needed some seasoning in my opinion. I had the shrimp and crawfish etoufee, the portion was a little small too, but it was super busy the day we went so not sure if that had an effect. The drinks were really good. I would definitely go back to try again though. read more

So disappointed. We were in Acworth for another restaurant that wasn't taking walk-ins so I jumped on Yelp and was excited to find 1885. Reviews were great and I had trouble choosing between a couple of brunch options. After chatting with the server, I ordered the chicken and waffles. The chicken was flavorful but the waffles were thin, bland and ice cold. The butter wouldn't spread let alone melt. I might chalk it up to one bad moment from the kitchen but there are too many excellent brunch places for the price. (I usually take a picture before I eat but I was really hungry and forgot.) read more

the food and service was amazing! our hostess was extremely attentive and gave great menu suggestions. I had a Not Your Mamas Lemon Drop cocktail (seasonal drink) and it was DELISH! The corn fritters were great, I only got the 4-count but should've definitely gotten the 12. I ordered the Half Rack of ribs with Brussels Sprouts and Lobster Mac for my sides...absolutely incredible. I definitely want to come back and try out some more appetizers. great food. great music. 10/10 experience read more
