“ I made a special trip to Macon just for the French onion soup! But seriously, I had a quick business trip and couldn't wait to visit Downtown Grill for the second time. My first experience was fantastic, and this time was just as perfect. The entire staff is friendly and attentive, clearing plates and refilling water as they pass by--truly exemplary service! Jordan was fabulous, striking the perfect balance between being attentive and allowing me to enjoy my meal. I arrived an hour before closing, but that didn't affect the experience at all. The French onion soup was just as amazing as I remembered--flavorful, slightly sweet, and loaded with onions and cheese. This time, I decided to try the chicken marsala for my entrée. The chicken was grilled to perfection with a lovely char, and the sauce was delicious; my only regret is that I didn't ask for extra sauce. The mashed potatoes and green beans were also bursting with flavor. Overall, another five-star experience! ”

“ My second time at Downtown Grill. We were able to make last minute Valentine's Day reservations. The ambiance is great! The wait staff were AMAZING!! They were so kind and accommodating to my pregnancy needs :). I prefer my steak to be medium well but as I mentioned I'm pregnant & I'm choosing the safer route to make sure I'm not consuming any raw foods. My well done steak was good!! I loved the mash potatoes & my broccoli was yummy too. I would definitely recommend Downtown Grill for anyone that's looking for a quiet but delicious place to eat. ”

“ This was my best friends choice of destination for her husband's & my joint birthday dinner. The ambiance is of an old speak easy. As you enter, the bar is immediately in front that offers cigars with top shelf drinks. The owner (Tracy, I think?) was the bartender & taking in our conversation. Very nice guy and fun to talk too. Seated very shortly after finishing drinks at the bar and had a delightful server. Our appetizers of mussels, charcuterie tray & ahi tuna were outstanding. Warm bread was served with lots of yummy butter as well. Main dishes of steak and I had crab cakes over salad. All worth returning for. ”

“ Best steaks in town. Awesome bourbon and cigar bar. Excellent service. Great environment. ”

“ Since moving back to Macon, this place has become a favorite go to. The food and service are always good. Locating the alley entrance to get to it is a bit challenging since we don't spend much time downtown, but it's worth the effort. ”

“ Excellent food and ambience. One of the best high-end quality restaurants in Macon downtown area. Great service and friendly staff. Small menu and limited choice so best to look at the menu and reserve the place. Valet Parking in the covered area next to the restaurant - it's free. Charges are covered by the restaurant Vs parking in the street. A comfortable, cozy place with a very good quality & delectable food items. ”

“ My fiancé and I and her family came here for dinner. To start, we drove down the alley, which at first seemed kinda sketch, but when the valet showed up in front of the door, all was good. We noticed with some amusement that there was a placard outside that proudly boasted that Greg Allman had proposed to Cher at this place, and we remarked about how our dinner would hopefully be less rocky than that I'll-fated relationship. We started off with some drinks and appetizers. My fiancé and I had the mozzarella tomatoes, which was basically a Caprese salad, and it was nice and fresh. The bread was also really good. Crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. The highlight of our evening was when the waiter tried to deliver a double Crown Royal to my uncle in law, who doesn't drink. We figured out that it was for the table adjacent to us, and I joked to the gentleman that I was seriously thinking about keeping that one! To my surprise, the gentleman was Myron Mixon! We laughed when he said it was a nice amount of smoke, and I assured him that we all admired his smoke, and he thanked us for watching the show. Pretty cool. For dinner I had a filet with the Aloha topping, which turned out to be a fantastic shrimp side with a buerre blanc sauce which perfectly complimented not only the shrimp but the steak as well. The button mushrooms and the mashed potatoes were spot on as well. For dessert, we enjoyed the crème brûlée which had a perfect sugar crust and was creamy and delicious. If you're in Macon, you gotta check this place out. Great food, and you never know who you're gonna run into! ”

“ We were recommended to stop here by our hotel staff and we were not disappointed. Wasn't really hungry but we split the French onion soup and duck breast. This is one of the best French onion soups I have had. Super cheesy, great flavor. Duck breast had an awesome glaze. Really enjoyable and glad we stopped in. Cocktails were spot on and bartender service was great. Can't wait to come back to Macon to stop in again. ”
