Best restaurants near me in Athens, AL

Made a reservation , when we arrived the table was ready and a nice birthday card was on the table. Our server arrived almost immediately. We noticed how neat and clean the restaurant appeared. I asked our server a few questions and then ordered; chicken tortilla soup, surf and turf, and kids cheese burger. The soup was at proper temperature, surf and turf was as requested (medium well) and the kid’s cheese burger was cooked perfectly. The presentation was appetizing and the food was delicious. The portions leave a little to be desired for the price. Beautiful place and professional staff.

We thoroughly enjoyed another early evening at Char (I waited too late to book a on valentine day). Actually the time (1615), worked out well - quiet and we were seated in a booth as requested). The drinks - a Cosmopolitan and a Char Old Fashioned were perfect. Our dinner, steak frites and scallops were also tasty and of generous proportions. Ferris was our server, and although relatively new to Char, never missed a beat. Water glasses were checked and filled. He stopped several times to check on our food.immediately bringing my wife a new portion of rice (the original cup of rice was stone cold when delivered by someone else). You will be well server if Ferris handles your table. We will be back sooner than later.

From the moment we walked in, everything was great. We were seated immediately. Waited on by a fabulous server, served drinks and appetizers no sooner than we ordered them. The food came out very quickly and was AMAZING. Steak, shrimp and scallops were delicious. One of the best meals we have had in this town. Would recommend to EVERYONE.

We absolutely love going to Connors for our celebrations...in this case my birthday! Starting with the salad it is the perfect size and we like the iceberg lettuce and toppings. Their filets are always delicious! I asked for my steak and fries with no salt and/or seasoning and that is exactly how I got it. So many other restaurants totally disregard the request. We are now looking forward to the next celebration!
