Feels terrible to wait an hour and know you are the 3rd to be called and they completely cross out your name. It's especially terrible when the guy hosting is going out of his way to call people out in the alley way for tables. When you are "hangry and patiently waiting" this is a terrible feeling. PA system should be used for all guests at the restaurant cause obviously people are being missed. When we finally sat the server did a great job getting our orders and the food was great. I don't recommend the fried green tomatoe... read more

I ordered a Cheeseburger and it was very delicious. The freshly cut french fries were also very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant to others. I would also like to take a moment to thank the Rookery for being a partner in the upcoming Macon Mardi Gras Block Party, on Cherry Street, in downtown Macon, on "Fat Tuesday", February 28, 2017, beginning at 5:00 pm. I encourage everyone to come out and have a good time. As a native of Louisiana, I would like to say to everyone, Laissez les bons temps rouler! (Let the Good Time... read more

The food was good but I didn't think the DBT Dirty South burger lived up to the hype. The Jimmy Carter shake was the best thing I had! Bacon with a shake?!?! Crazy but crazy good. Atmosphere was typical lively bar scene. Eclectic crowd.

***Random icebreaker question: Which is better, cheese or peanut butter?*** I struggle answering this question because both are tasty. Anyways, I tried the Jimmy Carter burger with a side of Yukon whipped potatoes. I chose a beef patty (medium well) with a gluten free bun. The peanut butter and bacon on a burger was a funky twist, and I enjoyed it just as much as a bacon cheeseburger! I guess I'm no closer to answering my icebreaker question, haha.

For the first time after several visits we had the steak sandwich instead of a burger. It was excellent and the service was great. We were sat in a timely manner and the manager came by to check on us.
