    My FIRST plate... Sweet taters, peas, coleslaw, fried chicken, bread and cream corn...
    Bill D.

    We went over after church to celebrate a birthday. The service was excellent, the wait was minimal and the buffet was worth the drive over. The choices were varied and very tasty! We'll make sure to return the next time we have the opportunity! This local gem of a place never disappoints...

    Fried Pickles, a lot of fried pickles! They come with Ranch dressing.

    We were pleasantly surprised by Johnny Macs. We got there 30 minutes before closing and they had ran out of pulled pork so we got a cheesesteak and it was not shaved beef but chunks of tasty steak. Salad bar was good. The order of fried pickles was huge and crispy, the ranch that comes with them is tasty. Also got the BLT and it had lots of bacon! I believe it may have been applewood smoked bacon, maybe not, but it was tasty. Coleslaw was awesome! Cheese grits were good also. Coffee was good. Restaurant was clean. Judi was our waitress, super nice! The staff was also very friendly. We will visit again when we are in this neck of the woods again.

    Excellent local restaurant. I had the special... two smoked pork chops, baked potato, green beans. Delicious and fresh. Excellent waitress service.

    What a drink!

    From the minute we walked in I absolutely adored this place!!! Warm and inviting decor, friendly team, and very clean! The food... I can't say enough good things about the food!!! Let me tell you that the salad bar has real bacon crumbles! Real bacon!!! We enjoyed every bite of our dinners and still had food to take home! Will definitely be back here!!!!! Keep up the great job!!!

    This is a little house off the side of a road near a railroad track. I have been here several times…read moreand surprised I haven't written a review. I always start by ordering an appetizer crab claws. They are usually big and you get about 16 of them. They were a little smaller today but still delicious. I do like their tartar sauce and cocktail sauce, which is on the table. The tartar sauce taste just like I would make it and the cocktail sauce has a little less horseradish than I would put in, but it's still very flavorful. The fried shrimp is excellent. My friend likes the sweet potato fries and I like their slaw. The crabcakes Were crabby and not too much bread. Today I had the fish sandwich which was a catfish fillet on a hoagie roll. It came with lettuce, tomato, onions, and dill pickle. The dill pickles were great and I don't like pickles. The catfish was perfectly tender, coated in cornmeal and fried. I always enjoy the trip up to Attapulgus and my service is always spot on. Oh the cheese grits were good. The only thing that I dislike is that the food comes on disposable plates and Styrofoam cups. But at least that way they don't have dishes to do. I'll come back again.

    Cute little country restaurant between Bainbridge and Tallahassee. Clean, comfortable place with 8…read moretables and friendly waitresses. The food was all good. We ordered fried mushrooms that came out fast. They were hot and juicy. Fried shrimp was perfect. Burgers and chicken sandwich were also good. Cheese grits and sweet potato fries hit the mark.

    As someone who has been reviewing for Yelp for a long time, this has to be the absolute worst…read moredining experience I've ever had. I mean that very seriously. On Saturday, 2/28, I came into the restaurant at 6:15pm with a group of 6. Looking around the restaurant, there were only 3 tables taken. The Hostess wanted to put us a table, but it wouldn't fit us all. We asked her where to sit and she told us to decide on seating. We had to suggest to put a table together and started to move it ourselves, then she helped. Just odd because we had no idea if they had a table to seat us. While waiting for the server, the table in front of us asked for to-go boxes and was told they only have the bottoms, no lids. She brought plastic wrap to cover their leftovers. They were not happy and left without a lot of their leftovers. Our service came out and was very sweet. She honestly was the nicest person at that restaurant and she deserves to go somewhere that she can make better money. She told us they only had beer and wine, but only a few on the wine list. Sometimes if it was asked for, they said they didn't have it. I stuck to a Coke. We ordered as follows: Me: Loaded Baked Potato (yes that's it.) Person 2: wedge salad Person 3: cornbread skillet Person 4 and 5 had burgers. One had cheddar cheese with everything on it. The other had everything BUT pickles. We waited about an hour for our food. Person 5's burger came out and the fries were cold. I'm not meaning lukewarm, I mean COLD. Like out a fridge. They hadn't even been cooked all the way. Person 4's burger came out without cheese. Both of those were sent back to get that fixed. Person 4's burger came back with a piece of half melted (what looked like) American cheese on the bottom of the burger and the burger was BURNT. I mean, hockey puck burnt. When the fries were sent back, we could hear the cook SCREAMING AND THROWING THINGS, yelling that we "weren't right" and he "had just took those up". The server even felt them and agreed with us. My baked potato came out hard. I couldn't really even eat it. It was hard, bland and it was covered in sour cream, even the outside. A runner came over to bring some salt and pepper and I asked her if she wouldn't mind letting us talk to a manager. Everyone there said I was polite in asking, as we just wanted to tell her what was going on, not trying to get anything free. When I asked, she threw her hands up in the air, slapped her hips, rolled her eyes and stomped away. The people around us even looked at her. They also could hear the cook yelling. We did see another couple send their food back as well while we were waiting. The manager comes over and when we tell her everything, she tells us she agrees and that she's working on getting better help, as we could see what she was working with there. We just asked her for the check and asked to go. We hear the manager try to talk to the team and the cook begins to scream and talk down to her. Then, he came out and stared at our table. If looks could kill, we would all be dead. The thing is- burgers there are $18. We didn't get anything hard to make but only the salad and the cornbread were fit to eat. They did comp our meal, but we continued to ask them to let us pay. Instead, we ended up giving the money to the server. She can only do what she can and she was so sweet. I do have multiple people who will attest to everything that happened. That was the whole experience. We walked outside and immediately went to get something else to eat. We came to the American because this was our first time in town and we had heard great things about it! Of course, we had seen it on TV as well, so we were very excited. The next night, another couple we knew went there and had the same experience. She was the only table in there and they still took over an hour and her food was terrible. This is absolutely so disappointing. The American used to be THE destination down here but now, it's the one everyone is telling people NOT to go to. We talked to our hotel host and they said they wished we would have asked because they would have told us to stay away. It's a shame. I really hope they can get some new people in there who care about food and making it good! I'd love to come back if they're able to improve and change my review. I do have 5 other people who are willing to attest to this, so as much as I wish it was an exaggeration, it's not.

    THis restaurant is leading the restoration of downtown Bainbrige. We had a very pleasant dinner…read morehere with a dozen of my wife's family members. The space was beautiful and open. Good drink selections with both local and more faraway craft options for beer. Elevated Southern/Georgia fare on the menu. For appetizers, try the cornbread and heirloom tomato pie. You can get quality fried chicken, pork chop, and grits here. I had the Pecan Crusted Idaho Trout. The sauce was bit cloying but the fish was tasty. Service was quick and competent, especially with a large group. Definitely one of the best dining options in downtown, and right next door to the brewery.
