Saluda Restaurants

We have been coming to the Wilcox for years and I have always thought it could be everything it is marketed as but was falling far short. Mathew Sayer who now is General Manager was always working hard to do his best for the guests. We came this year again and I brought my son and his family (5 grandkids). When I entered the hotel I could tell things had changed. Too many details to list in this review. Suffice it to say the Willcox is transformed into the Southern gem of hospitality and ambience one would expect. Great job Matt and team.

Upon arrival we were greeted and seated pronunciation the host at the door. While the time at the restaurant began quietly, the noise level was fairly high by 7:30 pm. Our food was tasty and well-prepared. Our waitress was attentive, friendly and polite. There is a full bar and a thorough wine selection, but only one of us had alcohol this evening. It is a pleasant place to have good food.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cork and Flame in Augusta, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding. Our server, Will, was friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable, making our evening feel special from start to finish. The food was, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had in Augusta. The Brussels sprouts were roasted to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with incredible flavor in every bite. The scallops were cooked flawlessly—perfectly tender and seasoned just right. And to top it all off, the crème brûlée was simply divine—smooth, creamy, and with the perfect caramelized top. Cork and Flame truly excels in both service and cuisine. I highly recommend it to anyone in Augusta—this restaurant is a must-visit!

We were extremely impressed with our first visit there and will be back.

Went on Monday for the $29 ribeye special. One of the best steaks I've ever had. Perfect temperature and seasoning and the truffle fries are incredible. Brussel sprouts a bit too sweet for my liking. Ask about their loyalty program, I'm sure if you go you'll want to go back.
