Reviews for Central City Tavern in Sugar Hill, GA

I'm rounding up to 3 stars but I had more of a 2.5 star experience. The location is excellent and the restaurant construction... is really nice. I liked the setup of the bar and although we didn't eat outside, the outdoor seating looks well kept andinviting. The cleanliness extends indoor to the dining area but I can't speak for the bar as I didn't go to that area duringthis visit. The hostess was nice. Our server was also nice but when they were not at our table I had no clue where they were.They would check up on us and vanish. My group was very disappointed with the food. I ordered the fried tomato chickensandwich and was pretty excited. While the sandwich was not terrible, it didn't satisfy.  The chicken was on the tougher side.The Texas toast was good though. I got a side of broccoli that was steamed. A little bit of salt and pepper would go a long wayon the broccoli. Another person in my party got a Caesar salad with chicken. They said it was on the small side but fine. Nocroutons strangely enough. Lastly, my child got a chicken nugget meal with a fruit cup for the side. Child got upset when theytasted the fruit cup (which was just mandarin oranges probably from a can) so I gave them a try and they were bad. I can't putmy finger on it but they just didn't taste right. The chicken nuggets were on the tough side as well but the dipping sauce waspretty good. Fries were not hot or crispy but warm and soft. I mentioned the weird taste of the fruit to our server and theyapologized. All in all, we were expecting fresh food but it all ended up tasting like it came straight from a Sysco truck. Ifthe food would have been maybe 30% cheaper it would have been more reasonable but at the current prices there are much betteroptions. Maybe it was an off day. The cocktails do look amazing but I don't plan on returning for a second try. Read more

Updated review. I am keeping four stars even though this last visit was met with slow service and soggy fries. The burger... was very good and the jerk salmon sandwich was excellent. Pics attached. Sorry no pics. Nice pub'ish restaurant in downtownSugar Hill. Nice outdoor vibe next to a microbrewery and promenade with seating and views of the pond. We had a burger whichwas great (pleased my 16 year old). I had the blackend Salmon sandwich which was juicy and spicy. Wife had the grouper tacoswhich she said were very good. Service was prompt even with a Trainee serving us. Read more

What I ordered was really good. I tried the tatchos, shrimp and chorizo dip, and the green fried tomato chicken sandwich. They... were both good but the sandwich was so good! My mixed drink was also delicious as well. I had the Blackberry Margarita Smash!The wait for the food was pretty long. Also my sister got the boneless wings and they were super small. They were closer in sizeto popcorn chicken. Read more

So I really debated about the stars between 3 & 4, but what pushed it to 3 (3 1/2) was the price. The food was good and they had... a good variety of burger, tacos, wings and more. Some of the menus items were different from the typical Americana food in agood way, a fresh, new twist. The fries were the best thing I ate, but to be truthful those are absolutely my favorite type offries so that's really not fair to the other food. ???? I had the hot dogs and surprisingly there was not a lot of flavor to allthe toppings. It was messy to eat which is always fun. The service was fine. We had a tiny, little wait, no big deal, and ourwaitress checked in on us as needed for the most part. Lots of TVs with games and they were loud so it was hard for me to hearour server. The total cost for the 4 of us plus a dessert and tip was right at $90, which is expensive for a lunch. The portionswere generous though. We have an exchange student and one thing on her wish list was fried oreos. Those were a hit. Everyoneenjoyed their lunch, you just need to be prepared for the cost. Read more

Came in on a Thursday night. Parking was crazy as both Parking decks were full. The service here was not bad. We were a group... with separate checks that they accommodated. The drinks were ok some cocktails mixed better than others. The tacos were great,the pretzel was good. The veggie tray was decent. Read more
