    Cheese sticks
    Allen H.

    First time at Jefferson's in Cartersville, GA. Quant place set in an older, historic building that comprise the square. Small seating areas upstairs and the cellar. We had a cellar table in about 5 minutes which was nice because it was quiet down below. Upstairs much livelier. Staff was friendly. Drinks and appetizer was quick to the table. Waters, soda and a draft beer were ordered; all drinks cold as they should be. Appetizer was hot and tasty. Entrees took a bit longer to arrive. Overall food was pretty good. I had double dipped wings and the homemade Mac n cheese. I'll admit I'm a Mac n cheese snob and this was pretty good stuff. I would get again anytime. The double dipped wings were different but very good. Never had a wing cook this way and I was impressed with the crunch and flavor. My wife had a side salad and traditional wings with Mango Habanero sauce on the side. We shared the wings so I tried these also and it was good. Their Mango Habanero is a sweeter sauce with a tiny underlying heat. If you're looking for an easy on the palette sauce this is great. If you want heat try a different sauce. My daughter had the Jefferson burger with tater tots. The burger comes the standard items plus bacon and bbq sauce. She said it was very flavorful. My son in law also had the double dip wings and liked them too Overall a great experience. Lost one star due to the extended wait time for our entrees but will return.

    Boneless wings and fries

    Came up to visit family in Cartersville. Cartersville is a nice historic downtown, and Jefferson's is a few steps away from the town square. The interior is like many sports bars, adorned with sports team memorabilia, tvs, high tops, low tops, a bar, and most uniquely the walls are adorned with signed dollar bills. The menu has much of what you'd expect at a sports bar: Burgers, wings, wraps, tacos, fried appetizers, and a assortment of draft and bottled beer, and mixed drinks. We were seated almost instantly and we had our drinks and order in in 5 minutes. Food was ready out in about 10-15 minutes. Kate took our order and she was friendly, personable, and friendly.great service, she checked on us and promptly met all of our needs. Food was pretty good, I had the boneless wings with fries. I split the flavors and got the mild heat and ranch wings. All in all, I had a good experience here. It's a nice little cozy sports bar. I'd come again.

    Double Fried buffalo chicken sandwich with onion rings

    First time I've been there and I had the buffalo chicken double fried sandwich. It was absolutely amazing and the corn nugget bites are definitely something to get.

    Sauced mac n' cheese.

    Great food and service!!! The sauced mac and cheese was AMAZING! My son's patty melt hit the spot as did the chips and queso. McKenley provided outstanding and attentive service. We will be back!!

    This place is awesome. Atmosphere is great, friendly and packed. People has placed dollar bills on the walls, and the food is great. Very professional and courteous. Family atmosphere, great environment, friendly people, located downtown Cartersville. Located perfectly to walk and view

    Kids grilled cheese

    Nice little local spot that serves wings, burgers, and oysters. We stopped by in passing. We ordered mango habanero wings for our appetizer. They were okay. Not bad but they tasted like rub of the mill wings. Wings were served with tortilla chips but no salsa. (Were they just out of celery?) I ordered the grilled buffalo chicken wrap. I was happy with the flavor of the chicken and it was moist. Hubby said the jalapeño burger was ok. The jalapeños was fried so that added a different texture that he liked. My sweet potato fries were good and they came with some kind of cinnamon sauce that was freaking fantastic. We apparently switched waitresses during our meal but the second one was super nice and attentive. Nothing really awesome but nothing bad either.

    Very disappointed with the wings! The service was great but the skimpy, salty and over dressed wings were enough to make me say "Skip it!"

As a vegetarian, to have options that were so considerate was absolutely amazing. The waiters were always great and this place is so popular during the week. I made it very clear to the waiter that I'm vegetarian and he was great about being really honest about what can and can't be made vegetarian from the menu. I came twice and the first time I ordered the tomato bisque with grilled cheese as well as the vegetarian option from the weekly specials. Both were incredible, but I was unable to finish the main after having the bisque which was surprisingly filling. If you're vegetarian in Cartersville, there is always at minimum, one vegetarian option here and they are unusually a unique dish that tastes incredible. I also recommend trying their cream sodas. I don't know if I'd get it again, but it was definitely a lot of fun to try. They are not as fizzy as I expected so be warned, but the taste is delicious.

Very interesting memorabilia, but that is about the only selling point. Whoever the owner is appears to be giving a nod to the Jim Crow laws in a political way. The bathrooms show "Democrats only" and "Republicans only", and the whole vibe is pro Republican. Most of us have political opinions, but it seems very short sighted of this business to make it so blatant. We will never come back, and I've talked to a number of people who feel the same way. There are much better restaurants in the area whose owners don't interject politics into your dining experience.

While the staff was friendly, their concern for safe food handling practices were nonexistent. There were no gloves, no handwashing and no concern for hygiene as they dug their bare hands into a Sara Lee burger bun bag and plated up a burger patty that'd been sitting in lukewarm water and slapped a piece of American cheese on top of it. It was like getting served by a toddler putting together play food in their make believe kitchen. I was truly astonished. Like I said, service was kind and country friendly, but that alone can't be the reason to keep this counter service spot in business. The food quality and safety was questionable and the food itself tasted worse than I'd expect prison food to taste like. At the end of the meal, I glanced and saw the health score and if I recall, their score was in the 70s. I've since looked at their health score history and see they have no intent in changing behaviors of cleanliness, as they've been repeat offenders of improper holding food temperature, cross contamination, and use of open container beverages among food prep areas. What can you say? You get what you pay for, I guess.
