This place is small so groups of 4 or less are best but I think it is worth a stop. They make their own delish salad dressings and their trout fillet is what I always get. So yummy.

Five Star Day was my favorite place to eat when I lived in Athens, and as a visitor, remains so! They mainly offer soul food/Southern food with some other options as well. If you've never tried that sort of food, this is a great place to do it. My favorites are the chicken and dumplings, the trout, the mac and... More

My daughter (UGA student) and I enjoyed this cafe. I dont love restaurants that make you order at the front counter, not much room to stand in line, have to wait for a table. I prefer a server.

Good classic breakfast place. I'll have to try it a few more times to have a solid opinion. But lets put it this way - I've lived in this town for 3 months now and I've not rushed back to the place or craved it when I woke up.

Artsy Southern Cookin'. Their website says "gourmet soul food." This hole-in-the-wall restaurant is located at 229 East Broad Street, across from the university. For lunch my wife and I split a "Green Tomato Burger with Pimento Cheese," and a cup of Tomato-Basil soup. I tried their Cheerwine (the cherry cola before Cherry Coke), and my wife had a lemonade.
