Raffertys Restaurant & Bar - Athens (GA)

5 /5 Terrill Albright: My son and I had an early dinner. The roles were great and lots of flavor. My son had samen and I had ribs. The food came out absolutely hot and wonderful. Gabbie was our server and topped off our drinks without having to ask. She was prompt and polite. Everything was just great!

3 /5 Jennifer Head: First, if you have a large group they have a sign they wont seat groups of 12 or more together (we were a party of 11 and missed the sign). They did finally accommodate, but we almost left (because they werent really busy) due to them splitting us into 2 groups at tables that couldnt be rearranged. Once seated, we had an excellent waitress and the food was good. I highly recommend the fried mushrooms & horseradish sauce. Cheese fries (with bacon and ranch) were good, and the Honey pecan croissants are also a win. Everything else was ok in my opinion. I didnt get many pictures, but enjoyed time with family.

2 /5 Williams Eddy “tvmechanic21”: Went to eat supper and was really disappointed. Had to ask for salt and pepper for the table. Sofia was our server and she told us that she was finishing up her training which I think she may need more. Had to ask twice for sweet and low, creamy horseradish. Ordered our meal and we got our salad and about 30 seconds later our prime rib came out so it sat on the table and got cold while we ate our salads. My wifes was ok but mine had a lot of crissle and was not very appealing. I have given 5 star reviews here before but they really fell short this time. 9-29-25 I guess management no longer looks at or responds to reviews. 11-20-25 No reply from management and I will not spend my härd earned money here again,... Use to eat here once a month at least,... Not as ny more since 5hey have proved the do not pay attention to 5heir customers.

3 /5 Amber Mitchell: Since moving to the area this one has been on the list of places to try. I have to say we left there underwhelmed. The menu was pretty limited and my $22 salmon plate didn’t wow me. The salmon was overcooked and appeared pretty sad slapped on the plate with little more than a lemon slice and my 1 side item choice. Hubs got the burger, which is difficult to mess up, so 4 stars for a decent burger, good fries and a yummy sweet potato. Rafferty’s isn’t terrible, but it’s definitely not on the repeat list either.
