Slow, slow, slow. Â You'd think with a full staff on a Sunday evening the service would be fast. Â We waited for 45 minutes to get only part of our order, and it was not a complicated order. Â When you go into a place for dinner with your kids you need to be served promptly. Â The food is not bad, not great either and definitely not worth the wait.
Review Source:I really wanted to like this place, and i think that I just hit them on a bad day. Â A co-worker recommended this place and suggested the calzone. Â So I order a calzone and a coffee with baileys... no baileys, or even a substitute. Â The calzone comes out and it looks amazing! The crust is a glistening golden brown, I cut into it and it was super light and flakey. Â It was pretty big so I cut it in half with the intentions and taking half to go. Â The meat inside is COLD to the touch, the cheese isn't even melted its shredded cheese out of a bag temperature. Â The waiter takes it back to the kitchen, brings it back in about 5 minutes.. the crust is now dry and borderline burnt. The cheese has melted out and was on the cooking surface so the bottom of the cheese is black, the bottom of the crust was black... and it tasted, you guessed it black. Â This place wasn't even busy, and it sucked.
Review Source:The beer selection makes it a worthwhile addition to the Milledgeville downtown area. Â In my opinion, the food is comparable with other restaurants. Â For whatever reason, this place is consistently crowded, despite being quite similar to other downtown joints. Â So, it might be better to check out one of the other bars during prime business hours. Â No pitchers, so this place is relatively expensive by cheap-ass student standards.
Review Source:The "old" Brick use to be so cool! It was located where Buffington's is now and we helped build it back then. Over the many years I watched The Brick grow with the greatest success and move to it's current location. After moving into it's current location it became more upscale (taken with a grain of salt) and their prices went up to reflect the move. That was ok.
When I'm in town visiting these days I still like to visit The Brick to grab a brew or two, but it just doesn't have the same feeling in my heart as it once did. The kids don't seem to party as hard as we once did when we were college students, and now when I enter I am the old man walking into the bar. Granted I can still out party these young scallywags still today.
The food at The Brick is typical of what you will find in a restaurant that is more of a bar, bar food. The pizza is good, the wings are ok, and the beer is always cold and flowing. As I type this I am looking forward to visiting The Brick again this upcoming Deep Roots Festival. The Brick is certainly a great place to get your drink on!
The food is exactly what you would expect from looking at the front. I've never had food that "wows" me here, but its never really been bad either.
If you come late at night, they occasionally turn up the music REALLY loud (im sure to get you to leave), as in... cant talk to the person next to you and this is even to loud for a club but we aren't closing for two hours loud.
They do have a pretty decent beer selection, and lets face it... there are that many places good for that in M-Ville.
I'll keep going back, but I'll never expect anything special.
This review is written upon my second visit to The Brick. Â While I am not a regular (due mostly to logistics) I can see myself coming here on a relatively regular basis if I lived in the area.
Both times I've been to The Brick I have ordered the the Savory Salad which consists of romain lettuce, mandarin oranges, baked chicken breast, toasted almonds, with sweet vadalia onion dressing. Â I haven't gone wrong with it yet. Â Upon our first visit my husband ordered the chicken tenders with seasoned fries and he seemed to enjoy it judging by his empty plate. Â This time we both ordered the Savory Salad and, again, judging by his empty bowl he was not disappointed. Â
The atmosphere is pub style with the seating divided into two rooms. Â One room has seating at the bar and also has tables in the middle and booths along the walls. Â The other room also has tables in the middle with booths along the walls. Â During both of our visits we have been promptly greeted and seated, with our server coming to take our drink and food order not long after. Â
If we're in the area again we would definitely stop. Â I've also recommended it to friends who may find themselves in the area sometime.
Worst restaurant experience ever!
My girlfriend and I were down in Milledgeville, GA this weekend visiting her daughter at college, as it was Parents and Family Day. Â The city was also having it's "Deep Roots Festival" that day. Â We spent some time at the festival, enjoying ourselves. Â Around 5:15pm or so, we stopped in to one of the restaurants we were considering for dinner to ask what the wait was, and we were told "Well, I may be able to seat you around 9pm"!!! Â Ok, time to punt. Â I pull out the handy-dandy-never-leave-home-without-it smart phone (HTC Evo if anybody is wondering) and do some searching. Â The Brick looks interesting, had some pretty good reviews and was just around the corner.
We walk in, go up to the hostess station and ask about the wait. Â We're told 30 or 40 minutes, so we decide to stay and we're handed our pager. Â The estimate was pretty accurate, and about 30 or 35 minutes later, we were seated. Â And promptly forgotten. Â After being seated, no one came over to say "Hi, I'll be your waiter/waitress", take drink orders or anything.
After about 15 minutes of waiting, I get up, go to the hostess station (where she thought I had just walked in!) and said "I know you're mobbed and all that, but it's been 15 minutes and nobody has even come over. Â That got somebody over to take drink orders, which arrived fairly quickly, but we were promptly forgotten again. Â Waiting another 15 minutes, I return to the hostess station (where again, she thought I had just walked in) and told her that we're just about ready to walk out the door because we still haven't seen our waiter/waitress. Â About 5 minutes later, a different person comes over and takes our food order. Â We order an appetizer along with our entrees and the wait begins....
About 20 minutes after placing our food orders, a THIRD waitress brings out our appetizer, which was pretty decent, but nothing great. Â We were asked if we wanted drink refills at that time, and got them. Â And then we waited. Â And waited. Â And waited. Â 90 minutes after placing our food order, the entrees show up. Â And they're COLD! Â I promptly get up, return once again to the hostess station and tell her that we need to see the manager right away. Â Less than 5 minutes after making that request, our waitress finally comes over to the table and asks "Is everything all right?". Â We both very vehemently say "NO!" in unison, very forcefully. Â We then proceeded to tell her the time line, ending with "Feel my food. Â Go ahead, I'm not going to eat it." Â at which point she felt it and said "Let me get the manager" to which I replied "That's who I asked for in the first place!"
The comes over, apologizes, explains that it's no excuse, but it's their busiest night of the year. Â She offers to have our order remade right away OR to comp our dinner and we can leave. Â No offer to comp the entrees and re-do them. Â So we decide to leave, we've had it at this point.
Without a doubt, the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant, and I've been eating at restaurants for 30+ years.
Ah, The Brick.  A typical "college town" restaurant in the heart of downtown  Milledgeville.  Having been to the Brick numerous times, I'd have to call it one of my favorite places to eat in Milledgeville.  I recommend the Buffalo Brick Chick, but if you aren't into the buffaloed part, get the Sorta Blue.
The food is rather tasty at the Brick. Â Happy Hour specials are pretty good too. Â The beer selection is probably the best in town. Â The service , however, could be better. Â For the most part it's pretty good, but there have been times, I or a group of my friends have found ourselves waiting on the server to get back to us. Â Typically, this happens only once out of seven times, so don't let it slow you down.
I recommend the Brick to all family or friends who come in to Milledgeville.
The Brick has the best calzones I've ever eaten and their pizza and fries rock. It's great for lunch, dinner, or weekend nights. It's mostly a college crowd, but you can find familys dining there throughout the week. It's hard to get a table on wing night or Friday or Saturday evenings though. Very friendly staff and fun atmosphere.
Review Source:The Brick is hands down my favorite place to eat. The food is excellent, the employees are very friendly, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. Whether I want to just have lunch with a coworker or come in for Tuesday's "wing-nite" after work and watch a Braves game, I can expect to have a good time.
The Brick has all sorts of items on the menu like pastas, pizzas, calzones, sandwiches, salads, wings, and much more. There isn't anything that I've eaten that I haven't loved. Visiting the bar for a few drinks after hours is also very fun.
I would highly recommend the Brick to anyone for a nice, entertaining meal.
