Cafe 209

Absolutely amazing. Food was SPECTACULAR. BEST fried chicken I’ve ever had. Staff is sweet and very good! Thank you Cafe 209.

If you are downtown Augusta stop in and enjoy some awesome cooking.

Based on our first visit yesterday, Cafe 209 will likely become our downtown Southern & Soul food go-to.We were greeted at the door by a lovely woman – the proprietress, perhaps – and led to a large booth in the clean, spartan and spacious dining room. Service was friendly and attentive.We ordered the fried chicken – which is cooked to order, so allow about 20 minutes – and our dishes were delivered to the table several minutes apart, which was a little awkward for my dining companion and me but no biggie. The chicken was expertly fried, perfectly moist yet slightly underseasoned for our tastes; something that was remedied with a dash of Texas Pete hot sauce. Not that we expect fried chicken to be spicy, this was simply the quick fix at hand.Sides were all spot-on and the housemade baked mac and cheese – not the ubiquitous, slick stovetop glop served elsewhere – tasted like home. We skipped dessert.Next time, we'll go on a Friday and sample the fried fish. Looking forward to it.

We always have to stop here and eat whenever we are near the Augusta area. We will even plan our trips around their hours. The hours are a bit weird since they are open on certain Saturdays and every fourth Sunday. The food is always fresh and hot when they bring it out to you and the staff has always been friendly. If you're looking for southern comfort food with great hospitality then this is definitely what you're looking for! Parking is on the street but we've never really had any issues with finding a place to park!

Love everything! Especially the pork chops and peach cobbler.

Good food. Small portions for the price

I took my uncle out for his birthday to 209 and I order several courses in which he could taste an arrangement of dishes being my daughter have taken me there for lunch in the past. I ordered 4 chicken wings and once I ripped a drumstick off the wing I noticed an oder, then chewed the meat off the bone and spit it it out, it was spoiled and stuck. However it was beautiful cooked, but even when they apologized after smelling it themselves, i could not get passed the experience after ordering in exchange for the roast beef.I know things happens but I will never eat there again. I truly enjoy my dining experience with the staff and the restaurant decor, but I cannot get passed the foul smell of spoiled food.

Really was all that I had heard it would be! Enjoyed it and the Fried Chicken was heavenly.

The food and service are wonderful. Great place for southern home cooking. Our only complaint is that it gets very loud during lunch time so we recommend getting there between 11 and 11:30.

2/10/2019. Great place for a home cooked meal. Friendly atmosphere. Shaquila provided outstanding customer service. I had the meatloaf with collard greens, cabbage and cornbread. Good serving size for those who are watching their portion sizes. The only down side of the meal was that the coffee tasted like freshly brewed tea. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a home cooked meal.
