    Fried lobster tail
    Adam J.

    I've only been to Hunter's once. The one time I visited Columbus, GA for a work trip last July. Everybody was raving about Hunter's so, not one to pass up a potentially great steak, I tagged along. Let me say, I visited Japan this February, and went to a high-end Teppanyaki steakhouse where we had top-of-the-line Kobe beef - supposedly the best beef on Earth. It was incredible. I thought to myself: "Is this the best steak I've ever had?" It took me a minute, but the answer eventually became clear: "no, the best steak I've ever had was at Hunter's Pub and Steakhouse." This 12 oz filet, for only $41 is literally the best steak I can ever remember having. Perfectly seasoned and grilled and tender. I've never had better. The lobster tail was pretty damn good too. Nothing else needs to be said. Go here.

    We're back! After a 10 month hiatus we were back camping in the area. I mean, what's a 30 minute drive from West Point for such delicious food??? Since we were a small group of 3 the wait time to be seated was very short. This time we all ordered the Rib-eye - 2 medium and one medium rare... Perfection! The other two had a salad and fries to go with their steaks - I went with sautéed mushrooms and a loaded baked potato. Perfect! Our server, Sarah with an "H", was professional, attentive to our needs and checked on us frequently. Her exuberance and bubbly personality were delightful! She even sang along with me to a song playing in the background - !!! Best of wishes when you begin Law School! I plan on returning in October during my next camping excursion to the area!

    Best Steaks. Truly a fabulous hole where the locals line up at the doors for the 5 pm opening. Looks like a shack, but don't let that fool you. Park and go on in, a friendly staff and an amazing casual dinner awaits. Yes, this a steakhouse, but there are some seafood and chicken dishes, plus kid's meals too. Portions are generous with ample parking and folks sitting outside for a table. Bartender yells out a welcome and how many? We lucked out with the last 2 top! Delicious from the petite 8oz filet to the sweet potato fries and the fried green beans! All of it was savory and too much for one person. The seasoning has layers of flavor and the quality of the meat is so tender. Presley, our server, was friendly, efficient and informative. In fact, observing the young staff, they are constantly working with a friendly disposition. Not one had a cellphone out, or were huddled together chit chatting. This is a great team, cleaning tables, greeting guests, and feeding us all. Full bar with a good selection of wines and beers. We didn't have room for dessert but had there been some of Mama Kay's homemade cheesecake, we would have taken a slice for later. Next trip through this area, we will get some.

    I've been wanting to go here for years because I heard they have the best steaks around. I was in the area so I stopped by. It's really small and the parking lot isn't sufficient, with numerous cars needing to park along the side of the road. The inside vibe is pretty cool but the music is extremely loud so don't expect to hold a conversation with someone. Service was prompt and friendly. I ordered the Ribeye, baked potato, side of mushrooms and onions and a fried lobster tail. I do not recommend getting the lobster tail. It was my first time ever having a fried lobster tail so I didn't know what to expect. It basically reminded me of a Gordon's Fisherman fish fillet. The baked potato was ok, kind of dry and hard but lots of butter and sour cream helped. The ribeye came out rare and I ordered medium rare. To be fair, it was so loud she might have misunderstood me and I like rare too so I kept it. The amount of fat on the other hand was ridiculous. I just kept having to cut off big chunks of it. I might go back again the next time I'm in the area but I won't be getting a steak.

    About a quarter pound of hamburger per plate with stew tomatoes for the sauce mixed in. Best spaghetti you'll find in a hundred miles

    Best restaurant in Columbus and Atlanta only it's in between there Harris county. All the spaghetti you can eat for $11.99 on Tuesdays only. Most of the meals are not cheap however they're worth every penny you pay for it. The cook is awesome and no matter what you order you'll be extremely satisfied. They have lobster and steak and chicken and spaghetti and I've never eaten a bad meal there in 10 years. I go there every week and have been for a long time.

    It's ok. Food is fine if you're a steak lover, but not compared to other places. Service is rushed and underwhelming. Pause and let me ask for what I want. Ambiance: Too loud to talk, too cramped for comfort. Definitely feels like locals like it, just not this one.

    petite filet with spinach and sweet potato fries

    So a coworker recommended this place to me, otherwise I never would have stepped foot in the place. From the outside it looks like a small shack, and maybe a tad bit sketchy to me as a young female traveling through alone. But as soon as you open the door, its a great environment. Music and great staff. I quickly discovered that the tiny place gets packed out quick with a line going out the door. Overall great experience. However, I got the peanut butter pie for dessert and would NOT recommend. Not very much PB to it.

For dinner I ordered the filet with lobster and my husband the Pork shank. My filet came out overcooked but was promptly fixed. The lobster was amazing ! My husband wasn't a big fan of the pork. We did order a cheesecake for dessert that was also really good. Overall our experience was pleasant but food wise not what I'd expected from the other reviews. However the service was great. The owner is so nice and spent time socializing at each table. He even came to make sure my second set of fillets were good to go. Our waitress is also very nice. I can see us trying this place out again. Hopefully on a night they have short rib.

When I search reviews on a business before going, I don't just accept them at face value, but rather, read them and determine if the reviewers are just entitled brats. lol Now that being said: here we go... ha ha This place was the worst experience I can recall with a business in nearly 50 years of life. It was very cold outside, and looking at the online pics looked like it was open-air seating only. So I called them to ensure there was also indoor seating at this cool looking bar. It was 8pm. The man reassured us there were indoor seating options. He then asked "are ya'll coming tonight?" I replied that we were. He then said "how long?" I then asked what time they closed. He replied at 10pm. A little perplexed, I let him know we were on the way. Red flag #1. I told my husband I didn't want to feel rushed out the door if they were trying to close early and didn't really get the vibe they wanted our business. He suggested we just give them a try anyway. When we pulled up, we noticed maybe 3 cars in the parking lot of this very big property. Red flag #2. As we entered the hotel, the gentleman asked us if we called about the bar. We said yes and he directed us to the entrance doors. The entrance was essentially the exit... to the outdoors. HAHA It was approx 40 degrees outside. As my husband and I looked a little perplexed, a female approached where we were standing, never even looked at us or acknowledged us in ANY way and said to the gentleman, "WHAT DO THEY WANT?" He informed her we were there for the bar. We asked where the indoor seating was. Y'ALL... this man took us back in the hotel lobby and pointed at the lobby area. You want us to eat a late dinner and have drinks at this cool looking bar, but in actuality we sit where patrons eat their continental breakfast and are served by someone who has all but said "why are you here?" What?? So... my husband and I said no thank you and went to Cowboy Town which is a very short drive away. Please go there instead. Great food and drinks with a super cool small town vibe, live music, and barrel racing most weekends. Maybe when the weather is warm and the pool is open, The View would be a cool establishment. But it needs to be seasonal only and absolutely closed the remainder of the year. Bless it. I do believe the reviews you see are mostly BS. Please pay very close attention to the details of them.

Despite groups of servers busing tables (4 servers and a hostess bussing a 2-top in front of us) and constantly walking by it was over 15 min before a server approached us. With the claim of "best burger in the south" we ordered 5 burgers and 1 hamburger steak. It took 40 min to receive our food. The crinkle-cut fries were very good. The burgers were large. We ordered at least one of every burger on the menu and nine lives up to the designation of best burger in the South. Every burger was overcooked and the buns were large but dry and crumbling. You must ask for condiments to dress your own burgers. Pickles,lettuce and onions are on the side. Bacon was thick and cooked perfectly. The pimento cheese was plentiful. The hamburger steak was a slice of meatloaf with onions and gravy, "nothing special". After receiving our food we did not see our waiter again (refills, condiments, etc) until we asked for out check. We were unable to get water refills during our meal but to-go waters were offered with the check. There is outdoor seating with umbrellas. Several TVs throughout the establishment.
