The area around this location is poorly maintained (a Hooters across the road is empty and overgrown, and the restaurant next door looks like the roof is about to cave it) but inside Fried Green Tomatoes is a very friendly, customer-focused staff serving some of the best Southern food I've had in a looooooong time! Their chicken is perfect and the tomatoes! I will each three servings of the FGT's next time, no doubt! Do not miss this place. . .they deserve all the business they can get! (Also, just FYI: "two meats" on the menu means FOUR pieces of delicious chicken and you can choose light or dark or a combination of both. . .) UPDATE: I stopped here again two days later for supper and the food was exactly the same quality, but the customer service was even better! Don't miss FGT!

The decor inside was modern yet still cozy, perfect blend of home vibe with some modern touches. The outside still has that small time feel. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! I had the steak biscuit and I'm telling you this (definitely homemade) biscuit (so much yum) was the size of my plate as was the chicken fried steak! I ordered a side of sausage gravy to dip it in which I definitely recommend. The gravy was so delicious! My dining companion got the biscuits and gravy (tasting their gravy is what made me want my own side of it). We also ordered an appetizer of the cheese balls with marinara which was a hit as well. We also ordered some meals to go since we were dropping off food. I didn't get to try those but I did get a bite of the fried green tomatoes appetizer. These are the best I've had in so long, if ever! They know what they are doing and they do it right! This is the place for good southern cookin'

Meat and two veg place. Had daily special that were already cooked like pigs-feet and meat-loaf…read more They had a cook-to-order section that was mostly fried stuff I think, pork-chops, chicken-wings etc. The cook to order stuff took longer to serve, but that's stated upfront and completely natural. There were plenty other options in both the special and cooked-to -order menu, I just don't remember them all. There were about 8-10 yummy sides to choose from. I had meat-loaf with brown gravy (could have been ketchup), collard greens, mashed potatoes with brown gravy and cornbread. I enjoyed it all. My companion had a fried pork-chop and it looked delicious. He seemed very pleased. It's a small old building that's kinda out of the way. It doesn't look like much from the road. If you happened to be driving on its back road you could easily miss it if you weren't looking for it. Found with Apple Maps. It was counter service. Small dining room. It was clean as far as I could tell. Single bathroom was old but well maintained. They had several takeout orders while I was there at late lunch time. The dining room was pretty full with three groups including mine. My only criticism was the fountain drinks were very limited. There were no diet sodas. There was unsweet tea available though.

We had to search for this place as it's in an industrial neighborhood off the beaten path but it…read morewas worth the effort. It's nothing fancy, the cafe is in what looks like a redone modular home. You order your meat and two sides at the counter and get your own drinks. The iced tea was good. There are two long tables in the center so you eat family style but on the Sunday afternoon we went we were the only ones at one of the tables. They were doing a brisk takeout business. The lady who waited on us was very nice. My DD got the grilled pork chop, black eyed peas and macaroni and cheese with a hoe cake. I had pulled turkey with dressing and turkey gravy, sweet potato casserole and collards with a roll (I should have picked the hoe cake). Everything was fabulous with special accolades to the black eyed peas, the mac & cheese and the collards. There were lots of choices too with everything from fried shrimp to chitterlings and ox tails. If you find yourself in Eatonton and you like a meat and two sides search out Ms. Stellas, you won't be sorry.

I felt that I had to come here because this place looked old school. I remember going to some old…read moreschool places in Atlanta so I figured this would be similar, yet not really. And what I mean by old school is a long standing business frequented by an older clientele. It reminds me of my childhood, I guess. I got some fried chicken with mac, it came with corn bread (not the sweet kind), and I could taste the home style cooking. I really enjoyed. I also got a cinnamon roll and a pound cake, and both tasted homemade. And it was all good. I guess I got no more to say.

You need reservations to dine here. There was complimentary bread and peach jam. They have a rotating selection of daily specials, cheeses, and change their menu frequently. I also appreciate the "small plates" section for when you're not that hungry. The cheese board appetizer was a surprising favorite. It had items sourced from local farms. Our waiter was very accommodating and did a good job with recommendations and explaining the intricacies of each item.

You definitely feel the love with their servers. Extensive menu knowledge and very service oriented they aim to give you the best experience possible. So after a tasty cocktail and a very nice charcuterie board I went with the Crab and Panko Crusted Cod. Oh my goodness what a delicious entrée. A tasty crusted outside and so tender inside. And that lemon and miso creamed kale topped it all off. Definitely a place to try when in Macon. The only draw back is that it's up stairs on the 2nd floor with no elevator.
