The Grit

They know what they're doing. Absolutely love and highly recommend the grit. Delightful cozy diner atmosphere and lots of options and cuisines to choose from. Their menu is creative and the food is very fresh. For specific menu items - the grit style tofu, tabbouleh, and split pea dal are wonderful! The black bean chili is salty and intense on it's own - best served with/as side. I am not a fan of their cakes unfortunately, they are quite dry. They do have delicious flavor combos though. I am always excited to try new things from their menu and specials - this place is truly a gem in Athens.

Awesome food, great service! We got the loaded nachos, grilled cheese, sweet potato fries, and the Golden Bowl. Everything we ate was delicious and the portions were so large, we took half of our food home. The sweet potato fries were the best I've ever had! I was also really impressed with the grilled cheese as their homemade bread was better than I've ever made myself.

Delicious! I have loved this restaurant since I was a kid. I love the many choices they have, and I especially love the fact that they are 100% vegetarian, and also have many vegan options.
