Restaurants in Monroe

“😁this is the greatest place to see old friends and meet new ones. I have been going there for 10 years .”

“Awesome, delicious, friendly service, and nearby! The best Shrimp Boil we have had in many years. The shrimp was good size, tender (not overcooked), sausage, potatoes and corn were perfect with the best seasoning ever. The juice was outstanding. The boiled egg was a surprise, must be a regional dish for Mal, but oh so good! Us southerns usually have our eggs deviled, but I have a new favorite! We support our new business in Monroe. The price is worth it when you are served food this good! Check it out!”

“Walked in and was greeted with enthusiasm and cheer. Our attendant Emily was amazing, with it being my 1st time visiting she explained everything fully and was patient while we ordered. Great food and experience top tier!”

“We enjoy the Winder location for dinner and Sunday brunch and decided to try the Monroe location. We were looking forward to a nice evening out, but due to the service we won't be back to Monroe. The food was good, when we finally received it. We had a reservation and once we were seated, we waited 20 minutes for our server to come and greet us and ask for our drink order. No one came over until I went to the front counter to ask who our server was. The food arrived an hour after being seated. The atmosphere was loud and crowded. I much prefer the Winder location and we will only be going back there in the future.”

“Food was exceptional. Bartender very friendly ; overall atmosphere very good.”

“The food is sooooooo delicious! ?My friends came from NY to visit me and said that the food tastes just like the Chinese food in NY. I agree! Here’s another five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Food is affordable, fresh, hot, cooked to order & DELICIOUS!! Very good atmosphere, friendly staff, Mr. Moose is awesome & cold adult beverages ... all this in Beautiful Downtown Monroe!! ~ who could ask for more 💯 Highly recommended!”

“They treat you as family and speaking for myself, they treated and fed me like a king. Their food is authentic and on point. To top it all off, a Coca Cola (hecho en Mexico) in the glass bottle. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“good”

“I just love this. We were in Monroe for my Mom's funeral and this place felt like home as it used to be when we were kids visiting our grandparents. I had forgotten how welcoming small town restaurants and shops are and we so needed that, along with great food and a cozy atmosphere. The biscuits are homemade and SO good! We were there 3 times in a week.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetables, omelets”

“Great food, reasonable prices! More than just pizza. The meatball sub, antipasto salad, Stromboli, and calzone are excellent.”

“Wonderfully fresh and extremely tasty! 😋The best in show was the Atomic Bomb roll. A very close second was the Drunken Noodles!”

“I recommend dining here. The wait staff is friendly. The food was delicious and plentiful. The menu is several pages. There is a lunch menu as well with many choices. I found the prices very reasonable.”

“Food was excellent tonight.”

“Great food and service. My favorite Mexican restaurant in Monroe.”

“I probably go here too much, but this is definitely the best ice cream spot I’ve ever been to! From the staff to the product, everything is high quality. They’ll always have my business!”

“My favorite little coffee shop in downtown Monroe! Everyone is always friendly & the coffee is delicious!”

“Janna, i hope i have her spelled name correct, is always so amazing. definitely a voice i enjoy hearing in the morning before work. she goes above and beyond to ensure the best experience for anyone coming through her drive-through line. She even remembers my order by heart and I just find that so sweet.”

“I tried this place for the first time and had a great experience! Chef Mike is very nice and had great customer service. The food was great! Taste just like my mom’s cooking. Will definitely be back. Chef Mike, you have a new customer 😊”

“Madison was a true pleasure to work with in every way. Blue Rooster is our favorite bakery! We have been returning to this place for over two years now, trying new flavors and delectable treats, and we have never been disappointed. So, when we decided to have our wedding, we knew that there could be no better place than Blue Rooster to meet our needs. We contacted Blue Rooster to schedule a cake tasting for my upcoming wedding. The process was seamless, and we encountered no issues. Madison contacted us via email and requested some information from us. She promptly booked us for the tasting. We met at the Monroe location, which was charming, and Madison arrived on time and fully prepared. She actively listened to our ideas and drew exactly what we described on paper. We were impressed with her exceptional attention to detail. Her expertise, informative responses, and confidence helped alleviate our anxiety and put our minds at ease. On the day of the wedding, Madison arrived on time and well prepared. She completely decorated the cake table as promised and everyone was impressed by her work! The wedding cake that Madison produced was an exact replica of what she had drawn on paper. Not a single detail was missing, and it was so beautiful that it left everyone saying "WOW"! We had ordered large cupcakes for the guests, and they were both beautiful and delicious. The cakes blew us away, and they tasted even better than we expected. You could really taste the freshness! For our spring wedding, we picked six flavors of cupcakes - strawberry, key lime, lemon pound, banana pudding, Oreo, and Italian cream. Our guests enjoyed Old Fashioned Strawberry, Oreo, and Key Lime Pie cupcakes the most. The Lemon Pound and Banana Pudding cupcakes were also popular among them. We had ordered an excess of cupcakes, so our guests went back for seconds and even thirds! By the end of the night, only 20 cupcakes were left - all of them Banana Pudding and Italian Cream. We gave some cupcakes as gifts to our vendors and took some home. It was a happy ending to a wonderful wedding celebration! After the ceremony, we asked some guests which flavors they enjoyed the most. The Old Fashioned Strawberry was the clear winner, followed by Key Lime. My personal favorite was Italian Cream, while the Groom's favorite was Oreo. The vendors said their families devoured the cupcakes they brought home and everyone kept asking, "Where did you order these cupcakes from?" We were proud to announce that we got them from our favorite bakery in Monroe, GA. Every guest got to enjoy their favorite flavor and try something new, and nobody was disappointed. We had an amazing experience working with Blue Rooster and Madison. They helped us bring our cake visions to life and we couldn't be happier. We have always loved them and still do. If you're looking for a bakery for your special event, trust me, you can't go wrong with Blue Rooster. They have a lot to offer and the skills to make your vision a reality. Thank me later! (wink, wink!)”

“Great place for a craft beer and some live music. Dog walking aound on the bar was a little off-putting, (I know they're "family" but really...would you let your toddler walk around ON THE BAR) but overall a great place. Young gal behind the bar was great and a sweetheart (I hate no name tags and when you run a tab, no reciept). God bless ya!”

“Quality, service, friendly, good food”

“Caitlin was so easy to work with! Great communication! We did a to-go tasting which was so nicely done! We absolutely loved every flavor offered and ultimately was able to pick a unique flavor we don’t commonly see (chocolate chip). She nailed my vision of a beautiful pearl cake! I’d recommend the Posh Cakery to anyone, especially for their wedding!”

“Love this place! Owners are the greatest, food is awesome and the drinks are fabulous!🤩”

“At first it wasn’t great but after reporting a girl to the manager the manager made it right for me and gave me a free smoothie next visit and acknowledged me as a customer. Very pleased with the assistant manager super friendly and the rest of the staff is as well”

“I have never had collard greens this good the mac n cheese and roast with potatoes are out of this world”

“the atmosphere & food were delicious! The prices weren't too bad either!!! we will definitely be back.”

“Delicious coffee! Peaceful atmosphere - both indoor and outdoor spaces. Plenty of parking. A perfect addition to Monroe.”

“Absolutely Amazing �”

“Nov 15 2024 5:15 pm.
I just went through the drive through at the Monroe Checker's and I have to say the lady working the drive through was absolutely awesome man it is so rare to have such a nice person working drive through now days. I mean she was super nice l, she got my order correct which is another rarity. If I had 20 dollars on me I would have given it to her for being awesome. I wish I had gotten her name but I didn't so I put the date and time on here so hopefully someone will know who she is and I truly hope she reads this. If she does I would like to tell you that you are beautiful, awesome and you are very sweet, nice. I appreciate you!!!!”

“The food was great and so was the atmosphere. But the one boy who brought out food had a look that we offened him that one of the burgers got sent back because the burger and the cheese was burnt to a crisp. He looked at us that we should eat in any way.”

“Great choices of flavors with wonderful candy to choose from ♥️”

“Best bbq restaurant in east Georgia! Always take care me foods always consistent!! I’m a regular now!”

“Long Horns is a chain steak house that I visit from time to time. Although it seemed very busy with multiple groups of 12 or larger, there were several tables empty. This seemed like a staffing issue but that would only be a guess. I ordered the grilled Shrimp with Peppers as a main course even though it was a starter and French onion soup. Both turned out quite good. Our waiter was top notch. Sadly I can't remember his name. With the large crowds it was very noisy. Having a conversation with my associate was difficult at best. So, not the place I would recommend for an intimate dinner.”

“This place is always on point. The fried rice is excellent as are the wings and burgers. I don't eat them, but am told the fries (regular and sweet potato) are very good. Also a hamburger is only 5.99 which is a rare price in today's inflation.”

“I do like Waffle House. But where do they get the idea that it's acceptable to bring the eggs, hash-browns and toast, but not the sausage until later? ITS NOT!!! We want our whole breakfast at the same time.”

“so goood! this is an order at the register style place, you go and get your drink from the soda machine, you sit and they bring out your food & then you clean your table after yourself.

Recommend: Chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, broccoli casserole, baked chicken, side salad, & biscuits :)

the cornbread is an absolutely no :(”

“Great food and always friendly people.”

“ordered our first pizza. got wings and 2 pizzas, $32. felt the wings were small and didn't get many. flavor was good for spicy one. pizza was more like a medium sized but tasted good not greasy. ingredient amount was awesome. Will get again. loved how you express your love for God on box.”

“Our server was Steven, he is always such a great waiter. I have a large family and every time he is waiting on our table he is so kind and understanding and inviting of our big family. Thanks for the great food and service Steven!

Parking: A lot of room”

“A great store in a perfect location. Absolutely a must stop to shop locally. So many types of gifts to choose from. We are truly blessed to have our three b’s jams in this old style store.”

“This place is jam up! I screwed up my order from a different location. The whole staff was on it, the price was cheaper and all apologies for my “inconvenience”
Awesome service, this place is yet to disappoint! The whole squad loves it !!”

“Hard to judge atmosphere with a take out only restaurant. Food is always good, it's a great Bang for Buck. I can order 1 meal and eat it at least twice. It's awesome. The family that runs it, is always lovely and happy to be there.”

“Great experience! After a really long day with work and no dinner yet, I tried placing a mobile order but unfortunately they were 15 minutes out from closing so it wouldn’t let me. I gave them a call and they were so kind to let me place a pickup order over the phone. When I got there, my order was ready and I was in and out in less than 2 minutes. To top it off, when I got home, I found the adorable note on the bag! It was just the icing on the cake after a tiring day! Thanks for being great!”

“I found this fabulous restaurant by accident, before its new sign was installed, immediately on entry I met Hostess, Anna, daughter of the cheif and co-owner. The decoration and food are both authentic and traditional Chinese. The portions are more than generous and delicious. In the past six weeks this has become my exclusive go-to eatery. Several new places have opened in Monroe (Walton County) and Da Peng is far and away the very best Chinese Restaurant in Walton County. It is well worth a trip even from downtown Atlanta 50 minutes away. In these still early days no reservations are needed but I predict as word gets out there will be a need for a reservation.

I have with guests now brought and greatly enjoyed more than ten of their dishes, each has been excellent. Tender beef, juicy chicken even under the crusty breaded wings, the stuffing inside their deep fried Rangoon Crab, the vegetables are always fresh and crunchy yet soft! Mongolian Beef is beyond belief, even Orange Beef custom ordered off the menu, Hot and Sour soup is a must on every stop on each of my now many take-out orders ( I always get the large version version that is still flavorful on microwave re heating days later. Please give Da Peng a try and say hello to Anna.

Kid-friendliness: My six year old granddaughter says this is her favorite place to eat!”

“Drive-thru wing spot. Serving more than just wings. My favorite is the 2-piece pork ? with fries!

Wheelchair accessibility: If you have a power ? you can drive up to the window and place/pickup your order.”

“The wings are big, juicy, and packed with flavor. Each bite is crispy outside and tender inside, making for an amazing taste. The staff is friendly and attentive. The dining area is comfortable and always clean, making it a great place to enjoy your meal. Highly recommend! ???”

“My grandson and l went for dinner after his football practice. The pizza was so good,the young staff were all polite and helpful. We had a great time. Oh,the gelato is soo good.

Kid-friendliness: Very patient with children.”

“My family and I love Five Guys. The food and service were excellent! Since it’s a newly opened business, we understand there may be some growing pains. I don’t want to sound overly critical, but I’d like to offer a small suggestion. It could be helpful to have a dedicated employee to keep the tables clean and sweep the floors. Also, while the patio area is nice, there were some stains on the pavement. A good pressure washing could make a big difference.

I know this might seem minor, but small details like these can influence whether customers decide to return. That said, we will definitely be back! I just wanted to share a little feedback to help ensure the success of the business.

Thanks, and welcome to Monroe!”

“I have probably been to 50 Captain D's in my life it is by far is the second best I've ever been to very clean very friendly staff and the food was excellent I really appreciate the customer service that I received as well.”

“First time at this new location. Been going to the old for a while that some of the staff remembers me. New place is nice and fresh. The food it let me down, was expecting the same quality and taste. It was lacking in some of the extras tastebuds. Was good but not great as it once was. I remember the fried rice get salt, pepper and some secrete seasonings, was salt, seafood was not seasoned as it once was. I don’t mind to pay more since this new building but give me that flavor I love please. Make sure portion are worth it, felt on the small side for the price. I want to come back please take my recommendations. I’m okay for the price but let’s get the food portion and taste up there.”

“I've been here probably half a dozen times now. I love the food, the wings are well done and all the sauces are great. I'm a fan of the Biffs Sweet and Jalapeño Ranch. I've had friends have the flat bread, pretzel, tacos, cheese curds, fries, just about everything. And always happy with the food! The service is fair, I don't see the same face often so I assume that the staff is newer.

We did take out once, that was a mistake. The food took an extra 35 minutes, the food wasn't as coated in sauce, and all just thrown together. Still tasted great but not timely. And the staff seem annoyed that I was there (easily could have just been a stressful Friday night)

I suggest it when people ask!”

“Fun place, great food and the Trivia was awesome!”
