from Google"The World Famous is a fun, lively spot that really captures the energy of downtown Athens. The food is creative, satisfying, and full of bold flavors, with a menu that offers something a little different from the usual. Everything we ordered came out fresh and well-prepared. The atmosphere is upbeat and casual, making it a great place to hang out with friends or grab a bite before a night out. Service was friendly and efficient, even when it was busy. The World Famous lives up to its name and is a solid stop in Athens."
"Ordered the poutine with braised pork and it was either the first or second best meal I have had in my entire life and that’s not a joke. Absolutely incredible. Was my first impression of food in Georgia and it blew my mind."
"AMAZING FOOD!! The lamb shawarma was only 14$ and honestly one of the best I've ever had. Really chill atmosphere, amazing staff, lots of fun local art EVERYWHERE! The drinks were really good and very affordable. The well tequila shot was just 6$ and they poured them generously. Its set up to be able to host live music and there was a booth for a DJ, but I was there at 9pm on a Sunday, so it was pretty chill. Will absolutely be a repeat visit spot anytime I'm in Athens."

"Great bar food. I definitely recommend the pork bao buns. The burger was delicious and the pretzels bite were a great appetizer."
