George’s Lowcountry Table

Went to have Sunday brunch and the food was fantastic. The crab cake Benedict was superb and served with home made potato chips and fresh fruit. My husband had the low country boil. It was large and very tasty. The service was great, very reasonable prices and we left very happy. Today (Monday) I realized I left my credit card. When I called they happily are mailing it back to me. Thank you for amazing service!!!

This really is the perfect brunch place: great-​tasting food, friendly service, and low prices. The menu has a decent size selection that is big enough to give everyone a choice, but small enough so you do not waste a bunch of time trying to choose a dish. The service is friendly and attentive. I will definitely be back.

I have been looking for a place that serves a good eggs benedict. I finally found it here. I was very impressed with the ambiance and the friendliness of the staff.
The place can get very busy though so come early. Additionally, it would be nice if there were more parking places because the one’s designated fill up quick.

The food is exceptional, but very steep in price. Also the service has been poor (I have eaten in 3 times). I will only order my food for carry out from there, if I can afford it! The food really is tasty though!

I love this place !!! First time was fabulous, second time was even better ! The host remembered us and the oysters are yummy! Cheddar biscuits are to die for! Thumbs up if I lived closer I’d be there all the time.

All of the food was delicious and the service was very good. I love the fact that they leave a water bottle on the table for you so you are not constantly asking for refills. My only complaint was the flies. For some reason, they had flies in there that night. The waitress said it was because of the patio door opening and closing and they kept getting in.

A friend recommended that we try George’s tonight. Glad we did. We had the Tuesday oyster special and shrimp & sausage skewers. Everything was great. Loved the garlic dressing on the salad. Jermaine was our server and we wanted for nothing… he was the best! We will be repeat customers.

First allow me to say wish Unilocal would give a half star option…
Having been to this place a few times and they always hitting the standard I have set for them in my mind I have to say overall great place.
Three visits with the family and so far nothing bad to report, services is always good, food is always what I order and everything else always what it should be.
That being the worst possible best review anyone has ever given, I have tried almost everything on the menu by at least a small bite minus some fish dishes and would say everything is very good.

Very pleasant experience. We ate here for a Sunday morning brunch. I had the omelette of the day; squash, zucchini, onions. A perfect light blend with mixed fruit on the side. I additionally ordered the pimento cheese grits; amazing flavor! My daughter is a really picky eater and barely ever eats a full meal. She cleared her plate; French toast casserole was perfect as well, not too sweet with a side of strawberry rum sauce. My wife has an omelette with cured ham; a tad salty but still very flavorful. Great dining experience. Would definitely return and recommend to anyone!

Been in the area for about two years — just tried George’s Low Country Table for the first time. We had no idea what to expect — came in and saw white tablecloths and knew it was a bit more upscale than what we anticipated– but don’t worry. The place is casual and comfortable. Large beautiful bar, friendly staff, great food (primarily southern comfort food) all with a slight Cajun accent.
We will go back.

Recently went to George’s for the first time. Loved it! We had the $ 7 Tuesday oyster special, and then I had the shrimp tortellini. It was delicious. Service was great. I definitely recommend!

I have been to George’s several times mostly for brunch. After the last time I went I said I wouldn’t go back. My previous experience was sub par only due to our servers lack of knowledge. I was told my drink only cost $ 5 so over the course of the meal I ordered three. After the first drink my server let me know that they were actually $ 6. That’s fine I can deal with $ 6. Once I received my bill the drinks were actually $ 8. This may seem insignificant but an extra $ 9 is more than the price (or supposed price) of one cocktail. This could have been fixed by simply adjusting the bill but all I received was an apology and no adjustment. The crawfish étouffée was mediocre at best. I returned again with an open mind. Only to see that my server was the same one I had last time. I gave him another chance. Upon being sat he seemed like he was going to be very prompt. That was not the case. Almost every time I needed something I had to flag him down. A few of times it was as if he couldn’t even see me waving at him. The food was again pretty mediocre. I had the pork and grits and she had the green eggs and ham. The vinegar sauce on the pork made it taste almost like kimchi. I eventually just closed my tab and went straight to the bar for my drinks. Again the bartender didn’t know the price for a mimosa. Moral of this story: it’s ok to ask don’t just tell the patron what you «think» something may cost.

This place is an absolute must for brunch. $ 2 mimosas and $ 3 bloody Mary’s-how can you beat that?! Also, try their Eggs Benedict on a biscuit with a fried green tomato! We been there for dinner too, and the food was just as good!

Went on Tuesday, was very disappointed! Food was average at best and not enough staff! Several people left because of service, we stuck it out however not worth the wait. Server was apologetic she was waiting tables and also working the bar! P… poor management!

We went late– around 8:30 or so. We got seated right away, everyone was friendly. We got the menus, they are pretty limited– we ended up getting the fried chicken with gravy, mashed potatoes and greens as the main. I got the gumbo ($ 7) as an appetizer and it was one of the best ones I have ever had. My wife ordered a nice mixed cocktail the «hot brown» that was little, but really good and over priced ($ 6) and I got a Hopsecutioner ($ 4.50). The dinners came with a salad, which was a serious disappointment, I finished the salad in 5 bites, and it tasted like it had been sitting in a fridge all day. The main was $ 16 per which I also thought was over priced for the amount and the quality that we received. The main dish was just okay, it was a pretty typical fried chicken, and it was laid on really bland mashed potatoes. The collard greens were great. The cheddar biscuits were good too! Overall giving it 3 stars because the prices of everything, the food was okay but wasn’t worth $ 60 for two people.

Nice restaurant with a good southern take on food. We tried a variety of items including smoked barbque and grits, eggs Benedict and crawfish étouffée. The wait staff were attentive but seemed to be overly busy. All in all a very good meal.

I went here recently with my husband for a date night. The place is nice and has enough ambiance to be both romantic and charming. Service was pretty attentive and the place filled up for dinner.
The food was 3.5−4 stars. The menu was «fancified» southern cuisine. Something commonly done in Athens, but very hard to execute (the best rendition done by 5&10). George’s does a solid job, but it’s not «uh-​mazing». Unfortunately, Southern food does not have the versatility of, say, Italian food, which can go from filling, family-​style (lasagna) to luxurious and gourmet (truffles/​porcini). Nevertheless, this place produces a satisfying and enjoyable dinner.
What did we have? The little cheese biscuits with room-​temp butter that took the edge off before the meal. Crab cakes that were very good, and the scallops were rich and filling. I tried fried crawfish for the first time and enjoyed the distinct flavor. La Marca prosecco was more dry than sweet and wonderfully crisp. Chocolate cake had a unique, mousse-​like twist. Cheers!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Athens. I have been multiple times and all of my visits have been great. They serve cheddar biscuits before the meal, and most meals come with a salad (I highly recommend the garlic salad dressing!) Every meal I have had has been really good. The steak is my favorite! It comes with an onion ring on top! Their shrimp and grits is some of the best I have ever had, the sherry crab bisque is awesome, the braised boneless short ribs are also really good and so is the fried shrimp. I have also tried the eggplant pirogue but it wasn’t a favorite. The waitresses are always very pleasant. Last time I went for my birthday, and they gave me a free dessert, which I really appreciated. Overall, I highly recommend because they are one of the best restaurants in town. Their location is easy to get to and the restaurant is big so there usually isn’t a long wait.

Very nice place, staff and food excellent!!! My first time in Athens and i’m definitely coming back to this amazing restaurant!

I was worried about this restaurant due to mediocre reviews. But I was thoroughly impressed after the meal.
The cheesy biscuits are dry and not as good as Red Lobster, but they’re not horrible with butter. The pimento cheese and fried okra appetizer is a nice way to start the meal. It’s huge, really, so only order it if you can share with several people.
The eggplant pirogue with crawfish étouffée was the highlight of dinner. It had the right balance of meat, spice, and eggplant. I highly recommend it or the étouffée alone.
Our waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. She made the dining experience very pleasant. The décor isn’t much to praise, but the blue walls are calming.
I hope to return here soon. It isn’t the cheapest place, so I’ll have to save up.
