    The food, service, ambience, and entertainment by One Nation Express was outstanding. Haven’t been to Sweet Georgia’s Jukebox Joint since before pandemic. We will definitely be back soon.

    We had to sit by kitchen and bathroom. Management was amazing and moved us up a booth so less noise from kitchen, but not expected from making an rsvp a couple weeks in advance. Service was good. Food was okay but drinks were amazing! What do you expect from cheer sport weekend!!

    Wonderful experience! The ambiance was very nice and the service was phenomenal. We were there at the end of lunch, but my husband wanted a steak. While we were willing to settle for the lunch menu which did not include steaks, the server was very accommodating and came back to offer my husband the opportunity to get a steak. This made my husband's first experience great! Thank you!

    It was our ten year anniversary so after ordering oysters (delicious!) and cocktails, we decided to order broiled lobster, which since they hadn’t updated the menu-they were not serving it. Okay, so we decided to go somewhere else. After explaining this to our amazing Server, O.D. He spoke to the Chef, Eddie. Eddie visited our table, apologized that the lobster was not available to be served the way we like, but he said that he would accommodate us and prepare it especially for us since it was our anniversary. He also served us a few complimentary dishes and a glass of champagne, too! The food was absolutely amazing, and we gave a generous tip to O.D in appreciation for going above and beyond. Chef’s kiss to Eddie and we will be returning.
