This was our first visit during Sunday brunch. The ambiance—live jazz music—and dining options were world class! And our server was supremely attentive with timely, endless beverages. There is fixed pricing, though, so be prepared to pay for the experience

The food was good - especially the turnip greens - they were something to write home about - amazing! The rest of the food was good, but maybe not as amazing as we’d hoped when we booked this reservation over a month ago in anticipation of this trip. The service was as fast.

We had brunch on a Saturday and we were able to choose from two menus. All of the food was delicious and the service was even better. The staff was very attentive and the drinks were excellent. Will definitely be returning another time.

dined at Georgia Brown’s on a Saturday afternoon, arriving around 4 PM. At this time, the dining area was relatively quiet, with only two tables occupied, while others were seated at the bar. Given the slow pace of the restaurant when we arrived, I had high hopes for a relaxing meal. For my entrée, I chose the Devil Shrimp, which was served alongside sautéed spinach and mac & cheese. While the shrimp were flavorful and well-seasoned, the accompanying mac & cheese was disappointingly cold. In fact, it was so cold that it felt more like a side that had been sitting out for a while. After bringing this to the attention of our server, a new, piping-hot portion was promptly brought to the table in a small cast-iron dish. While I appreciated the effort to correct the issue, the reality is that all food served should be at the proper temperature from the start. This kind of inconsistency can detract from an otherwise enjoyable meal. My boyfriend opted for the Carolina Gumbo with dirty rice. Unfortunately, the rice was nearly inedible due to its hardness, leaving him no choice but to reorder a new different entrée. However, given that the restaurant was so slow at the time, it was surprising that such an error could occur in the first place. The overall execution of the meal left much to be desired. When dining out, especially at establishments with a slower pace, attention to detail is paramount. It's unfortunate that the inconsistencies in food quality, particularly with temperature and texture, overshadowed what could have been a pleasant dining experience. The food preparation and attention to detail in execution need to be improved in order to truly elevate the experience.

An overall excellent dining experience. The food, service, and atmosphere are topnotch. The fried green tomatoes were the best that we've had in more than a decade. The drinks were exceptional, and our entrees were spectacular. Service was absolutely awesome, even though it was extremely busy.
