7 Best Southern Restaurants in Augusta

“Loved the atmosphere and the service was excellent, friendly and attentive! I ordered the red velvet waffle, and while it was good, the cinnamon was a bit strong, which made it hard to taste the red velvet itself. Still, I really enjoyed my visit and would definitely come back“

“Hosted a customer dinner here. The location and ambiance was perfect. We started with the Brussels and Frito Misto. Brussels were cooked to perfection and had a great combination of flavors. We equally enjoyed the Frito Misto. For the entree's, I had the pork chop and each of my guests ordered the filet daily special. We each commented on how flavorful our meal was. Both of my guests were not fans of creamed spinach until they ate it here. The grits and gumbo were the perfect accompaniment to the pork chop. The cornbread...chef's kiss! I'm not from the area, but next time I'm in Augusta, Abel Brown will be on the list. I'm a fan!“

“So pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. The food was amazing but the best part was our server Rhonda. She gave amazing suggestions and was a delight. We had the pimento cheese( I had never had before & never would have ordered without her suggestion. We had salads, fries and a bottle of bubbly!“

“The best!!! Turkey wings are my favorite. I judge restaurants based on their Mac and cheese and this is definitely 5 star worthy! ❤️“

“Atmosphere was a vibe. Music was way too loud though for the amount of us that was in there, but the cashier was absolutely amazing. She was very sweet and kind and really took care of us. I was confused on my order and she fixed it with no issues no judgment or attitude. I need this everywhere I go.“

“We stopped by 8595 Restaurant for drinks, and Meka and Becca made the experience unforgettable! Their service was friendly, professional, and full of great energy. The drinks were absolutely incredible—perfectly made and beautifully presented.

Meka and Becca went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of from start to finish. If you’re looking for great vibes, amazing cocktails, and top-tier service, definitely ask for them. They’ll make your visit to 8595 one to remember!“

“After reading the reviews we had to visit. I had the chicken salad. We’re from England and the chicken was shredded and in some kind of sauce, almost like a coronation chicken, not what I expected but nice enough. Service was rushed, I felt like this lunchtime the waiter was just trying to serve as many people as he could. As he cleared our plates he told us he was bringing the bill. Not quite the leisurely experience we are used to but glad we visited non the less.“
