We did not have a reservation. They were so kind at the front sat us within five minutes. There is also outdoor seating that was pretty crowded too. The menu is very affordable. The portions are generous in the food quality is fantastic. My husband got the fried fish, I got the Carolina burger, which are sweet server. Told me is their most popular. It is a double smash burger with pimento cheese, bacon, jam, and a Black Eyed Pea Bass, just a little and it is delicious. The star of the show is the sauces for the fries. The fries are hand cut, and there are six different sauces to choose from. We had garlic aïoli, beermustard, and smoked paprika. There is a 50 Cent charge if you get more than two, we were happy to pay it. They were out of the hand peach pastry pies, again, who knew they were so popular we will get one for sure next time because we will go back. Really really enjoyed it

My wife & I had dinner here last night…read more I had a good old fashioned and we split 2 appetizers - crab fritters and fried green tomatoes. Both were excellent (if I had to pick one that was better, crab fritters but... they were both great). For meals my wife had the bacon chicken and she raved about it while I had the pecan crusted salmon (I loved it). Everything we ordered was not for someone on a diet or looking to eat light BUT there are no complaints as it was all delicious. We did not get a dessert but maybe next time, the brownie sounded good. Worth mentioning, our server was great and when we walked in around 7 there was a corn hole league happening outside and there were about half the tables taken (it was also the first Tuesday after New Years). Great dinner date spot. We will be back.

He was prompt with all of our needs and checked in on us throughout. The food was yum. My kids had a burger. I had the chicken sandwich (so good). We tried both desserts. I was skeptical about banana pudding as I have never been a fan of the wafer version. Since it was my birthday weekend my family insisted we order the chocolate and banana. Both were impressive, I recommend scooping a bit of each on one spoon . Although each are delightful on their own. The lavender margarita gets two thumbs up! Decor was pleasant. The bathrooms are the most fun I have ever been in! Bravo WT.

So if that's something that interests y'all, go for it. The staff here has been so generous and amazing throughout my experience. They encouraged us to take pictures, accommodated a dessert for my friend, and just been amazing people overall. The food did take a bit to come out, but the food did not disappoint. I ordered the BBQ pork, and the fries were a bit soggy but that's how I like mine (hot take). Also, the cole slaw was a bit vinegary, which is also how I like it. The price isn't too bad, but compared to the other location in Athens, it is a tad more pricey, but still not bad. Overall, 9/10!!

The portions were significant, but the dish was completely overwhelmed by garlic. It was supposed to be a hibachi steak and chicken, but ended up just tasting like all garlic. The food also took a little while to make despite there not being any parties ahead of us. Overall, it was an okay experience, but I'll likely opt to try something else next time I'm at Wire Park.

We got takeout so I can't comment too much on the ambience;…read morehowever, I will say that the wire park area they were in had live music on Friday so that is probably a good time. We ordered the steak hibachi, which is some of the best food I have gotten in Athens. They prepared it fresh and fast, and it also transported well back home. Portions were also relatively generous. I will certainly be returning for more of their delicious food and to try more of their menu. It appears to be fairly eclectic - I noticed Poké bowls are pictured online, but I did not see those this time. It's not a very large place so I'm not sure they have much room to dine in, but we might give that a try next time. They were sort of an unexpected find and a local gem. I highly recommend them if you're in the area.

It was crowded so I expected some delays. We sat outside, enjoyed great conversation, and appreciated the relaxed atmosphere while we waited. Unfortunately, one of their ovens went down during our visit, so our food took longer than expected. The staff handled it as best they could, and once the food arrived, it was definitely worth the wait. Our group tried a little bit of everything--wings, the Parmigiana Chicken Hoagie, garlic knots, and several pizzas. Bonus: they had a gluten free pizza option. The Walter White pizza was absolutely incredible, packed with flavor, and The Meathead lived up to its name--fully loaded with meat and delicious. Despite the delay, the variety, quality, and overall vibe made it a solid experience. We'll be back!
