Downtown Grill

Wish we could give more than 5 stars! The food was exceptional. The chef adds a Cajun touch to his specials and everything we tried was fantastic. Our waitress, Zoey, was amazing. She knew the menu from front to back and her recommendations were spot on! Highly recommend.

The place is NOT easy to find when using gps.... you have to go down an alley (note the "Lane" in the address). We had a large party and our server was amazing!! [I think her name was Sarah]. The appetizers were on point.... the entrees were good (it is a challenge getting everything perfect for a large party). Worth a try. [P.S. they do have valet... our guy looked "suspect" until we saw his shirt).

This place was superb. Cannot recommend it enough. Our waitress was great and sharp. The food was unbelievable. We all ordered the specials and everyone was floored. The place is in a back alley. Looks sketchy from the outside but has a great vibe on the inside. Totally worth the experience

Food was incredible. Ericka was our waitress & she was phenomenal. The atmosphere was unique & enjoyable! I will definitely visit next time I’m in Macon. I made reservations & everything worked out perfectly.

We went in for a whiskey because we were told that the selection was amazing, and we were not disappointed. The bartender was impressively knowledgeable about the whiskeys and about the restaurant in general. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere upscale but not pretentious. My only caveat is that if you want a drink not listed on the menu and price is a consideration, ask before you order. We ordered a rye that we were familiar with, but we didn't know that they were serving the 12 year-- so the price was about 3x what we expected. We felt like that should have been more clear. Lesson learned.😳 Get there early for a spot at the bar.

What a wonderful experience for my first time here! My server Jordan was amazing ! Her shrimp waffle appetizer recommendation was amazing and then the surf and turf was so great! She went above and beyond when it came to working with the chefs for my fresh garlic allergy! And so appreciated I’ve had people literally only recommend a salad!!! I can tell you I will definitely be back and recommending this establishment for all of my clients in Macon!

Went on 3/4/2025 celebrating my anniversary. The area is in an alley it smells like cat urine when walking to the door. when you walk in the bar is on your right where people were smoking. It was not a good combination. when escorted to the back it becomes very gloomy. The pictures on the wall were very sad. The food overall was really good The waiter told us about items that were not on the menu and she happened to have so much excitement about her food which set a good example. My only concern was, she did not mention anything being extra as far as when she was saying the menu I got the pork chop which she said came with a crawfish sauce. When received the bill I saw, she charged me $9 for the crawfish sauce, but because I was celebrating with my husband, I did not want to complain. I just made the best of it so if you would like to have your customers coming back, please make sure your waiters tell the guest. It’s an extra charge for sauces and not include that as part of the meal. This is why I’m giving 3 stars.

Hard to get in, make reservations early! But it's well worth it! Best steak in town, and the best veal parm as well. Great service too. Highly recommended.
