Drinks stayed full and order was correct Appetizers- Blue cheese potato chips - strong blue cheese which complemented all the other ingredients-delicious all 7 of us enjoyed sharing them Crab wonton was a great spin on crab Rangoon and again all shared and enjoyed Clam chowder - my daughter (graduate ) said best she ever had . Sushi was ok . Szechuan salmon -meh , I guess my wife isn't a Szechuan fan although I enjoyed the slaw and fish leftovers Po boy (shrimp) not enough shrimp , bread was ok , sauce lacking flavor Teenage daughter and I both order burger MR and cooked nicely , I enjoyed it but daughter not as much. All in all , for a google last minute search after graduation ceremonies,very satisfying Total bill including service fee 360.00

Being down in Macon Ga. for the weekend I thought it was so cool…read moreto try some new restaurants. The Brasserie Circa was a great find. With a nice steak line up and very creative pasta dishes. The ambiance and decor shows an elegant and sophisticated feel. It's hard to find good sushi so when I seen their line up I knew I was going to pass on the pasta and steaks and go right for the sushi. lol The Chef's Selection (assorted sashimi/nigiri) was a bit of a mystery as it didn't explain anything other than it was the chef's selection. I'm always up for an adventure so I went with it. All I can say is wow what a dish. 4 kinds of fish. Hawaiian Butter fish, Yellow Fin, Salmon and Tuna. And so much of it. Four big pieces of each. Luckily there were other Sushi fans at the table so none went to waste. That coupled with good service and awesome cocktails made for a delightful experience. It's on my list for Must Macon stops.

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!

I went for lunch but didn't get the opportunity to eat it til supper since my sis text once I ordered my plate and wanted to do lunch together. I ordered the turkey wings, dressing, and potato salad. I know a lot of starch but I really wanted to try the potato salad as another reviewer posted it and it looked really good. Well this one wasn't. It was white and not yellow as I had hoped for. I love the mustardy taste in potato salad. It was not seasoned and so bland as was the dressing and turkey wings. The fried green tomatoes were chewy. And I tasted those time I got in the car as I always do. Huge difference!!! I was really shocked. There has got to be a new cook or at least for 1/8/26. This was not the typical seasoning or taste I was used to. I ate my turkey wings so my stomach wouldn't be touching my back and trashed the rest. Maybe I'll have better luck when I return. I'll be switching things up tho when I order.

I had a blue cheese burger, no longer on the menu but a smash burger with bacon, blue cheese crumples, blue cheese aioli with the standard garden fixings with onion rings. The sandwich was flat out amazing. I almost couldn't eat it fast enough. I got fries by accident but the brought out the onion rings later. Overall a great experience.

Located in Downtown Macon, parking is available via street parking. Finding a close spot on the weekend is like winning the Mega Million, possible, but don't count on it. We lucked up on this night and found a spot directly across from the restaurant. As we made our way to the entrance, we were unexpectedly greeted by a woman passionately yelling obscenities at us. Nothing like a little downtown ambiance to set the mood. Thankfully, the heavy police presence on every corner made me feel safe enough to proceed to the restaurant. Once inside, the chaos faded instantly. We were welcomed by a gregarious and friendly staff, informed them of our reservation, and were seated immediately. On this particular Saturday, they weren't overly busy, so we even had the luxury of choosing which booth best suited our comfort level. The atmosphere is intimate and upscale without being stuffy. Think dim lighting, elegant music, exposed ceilings, and décor that says "rustic charm" but also "yes, this entrée will cost more than $30." Our waiter was professional, attentive, and genuinely pleasant, the kind of service that makes you relax and stop checking the time. We started with cocktails: I ordered the strawberry lemon drop martini, and my husband opted for an old fashioned. Both were well-crafted, smooth, and strong enough to make us forget about the crazy lady outside. For appetizers, we each ordered the crab cake. You get one small crab cake, but it was tasty and respectable by Middle Georgia standards. Entrées are à la carte, so order accordingly. I ordered the Chilean sea bass with Brussels sprouts and spinach, while my husband chose the salmon with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Both fish dishes were cooked perfectly and tasted fresh, with sauces that paired beautifully. The Brussels sprouts were crispy, flavorful, and addictive. My husband said his mashed potatoes were possibly the creamiest he's ever had. All of the food was outstanding. Dessert options include their 3rd & Cherry cobbler, cheesecake, and crème brûlée. Heads up: desserts are made to order and take about 20 minutes. Translation, order dessert early unless you're prepared to sit there long enough to contemplate life choices. The restaurant and restrooms were clean, which always earns bonus points. Overall, we had a lovely experience at 3rd & Cherry. It's an excellent choice for a special occasion, date night, or anytime you want to feel a little fancy without leaving Middle Georgia. We'll definitely be back.
