The Flint - Albany (GA)

4 /5 F.A.: The Flint is a great spot located in downtown Albany. The space is stylish and clean, with a warm, welcoming vibe. The staff are friendly, helpful, and quick. The food is excellent, from the burgers to the seafood and meat dishes, everything is flavorful and well-prepared. The spinach dip is especially tasty and definitely worth trying. The drinks are also well crafted, and the background music, a mix of soul, funk, and R&B, sets a perfect mood for the evening. The only downside, unfortunately, is the location. While the restaurant itself is great, the surrounding area can feel a bit unsafe at times, depending on who’s around. That said, if you’re comfortable with the neighborhood, the dining experience at The Flint is definitely worth it. See you next time!

5 /5 Sophie Martin: food was delicious! i can’t recommend the potato soup & lamb chops more. The wine selections were great too, my server was very sweet. My only suggestion to the restaurant is to pay more attention at the front by the host stand when customers come in, because i was waiting for a while before i decided to wander in. I also feel like the presentation of the actual food could have been better, but the delicious taste is really what matters (& is most important!) For my first time in Albany, I’m glad i stopped by The Flint it was great!

1 /5 Shamika Rich: The Menu looked great; However they were out of food. They didn’t have many servers on staff. We didn’t have to wait as they were not busy at all, They just were out of Main Entrees, such as oxtail, Turkey Wings. The only other menu choices was fish and fried chicken. We may try it again but at an earlier time.

5 /5 Emily Riddle: We stopped here on the way to Disney and it was INCREDIBLE!!! Service was great and our food was delicious! I got the stuffed flounder with grits and greens, and my fiancé got the lamb chops with mac n cheese and asparagus. Asparagus had a great char and the portion of lamb chops was filling. The sauce on the flounder was also really good. The food came out really fast. We will be back!

1 /5 Tiera: Absolutely terrible experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was unwelcoming. We waited nearly 20 minutes to be seated, only to find dirty tables with crumbs and stains on the plates. When we pointed this out, the host made no effort to clean or replace them. The service was extremely unprofessional! We were never introduced to our server, and it took almost 50 minutes just to receive water. The other drink we ordered never arrived at all. After an hour of waiting and poor treatment, we decided to leave. Hoping for accountability, we spoke to the owner, who shockingly showed no concern. His exact words were, “What do you want me to do about it?” No apology, no attempt to make things right…just complete disregard for customer satisfaction. This was my first visit, and it will definitely be my last. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good service or a clean, welcoming dining experience.
