The waiter that served us was not friendly, my food didn’t come out the way that I ordered it and I believe that it was do to the miscommunication of our waiter. Overall the food was bland and not well seasoned. Will never go there again.

Second time at Georgia Brown’s for brunch and it was simply delicious. This time I had the biscuits — and unfortunately they had been sitting for a while and were hard. The flavor profile was exquisite. Followed ip with the catfish nuggets, the jerk catfish (with collards and Mac) and the gumbo. 6 courses is a lot and I ate a bit of each. Not a desert person, but my partner loved the banana pudding — and they hate banana pudding! Will do it again.

Very disappointed non the food and the outrageous prices. Took my Aunt there on Thursday night as she was visiting DC. We ordered 2 appetizer, the Gumbo and the Fried Chicken. The chicken and collard greens were not seasoned and both were dry. We shared with the waiter, who responded Sorry!

From entry into the restaurant until we left, it was an excellent experience. We brought our good friend in for her 60th birthday. When we entered, the hostess greeted us and told our friend, LeJuene, "happy birthday." Once we were seated, the hostess came to get her name, then told the band that LeJuene was celebrating a birthday. Although the band gave everyone celebrating a shout out, I felt their tribute to LeJuene was special. The music, the service (Jonathan was an attentive server), the ambience, the experience - all great. The food - okay. Though it was pretty and presented well, the taste left a lot to be desired. As we left the restaurant, the saxophonist called LeJuene out again and allowed us to take picture of our friend with the band. LeJuene cried and thanked the hostess and us for an immensely gratifying birthday celebration.

Service was awful and the food was decent but not great. My grits were lumpy and and it was super noisy. It was just me and my husband and they add a 20% gratuity to your check after tax which I didn’t appreciate since the service was so bad. It gives no incentive to the staff to do a good job. On top of that it’s a bit presumptuous to think that’s ok to do with a party of 2 and it’s not mentioned anywhere

The food, as always, was delicious, but our server definitely needed more training, or perhaps he should not work on Friday nights because he seemed to have a hard time keeping up with the pace that evening. Despite the slow service, we still enjoyed our meal and will definitely be returning.

Our server was not attentive or friendly. Did not like the idea of an automatic 20% gratitude for bad service. Caesar salad was so horrible it had to be sent back. No apology or even an offer to get something else. Piano player was good, but so loud everyone in restaurant was shouting to speak to the person sitting next to them. Would not recommend.
