Is it just us, or do big city restaurants tend to get all the love? Don’t get us wrong: there are plenty of phenomenal places to eat in Atlanta, Savannah, Macon, and all our other large, metropolitan cities. With that being said, you can certainly find some pretty amazing small-town restaurants in the Peach State. Our small towns in Georgia are spectacular and full of history, fun boutique shops, unique attractions, and, of course, delicious restaurants. One of our very favorite small-town restaurants in the state is the Fish Eye Grill in Burke County. This little spot is tucked away in the little town of Girard. Girard boasts a population of under 200 people, but looking at Fish Eye Grill reviews, you’ll see it has a lot to offer on the dining scene. This place has wonderful service, a great small-town atmosphere, and, of course, delicious food. This rustic spot is definitely worth a visit – check it out:

Girard is part of the sprawling Augusta metropolitan area. It's around 45 minutes away from the city's center, giving it something of a rural feel to it. The population is only around 200 people, making this a quintessential small town in Georgia.

It's here that you'll find the delicious Fish Eye Grill. The restaurant opened up in 2018 and has quickly become one of the most popular restaurants in the area.
The rustic decor and tasty food are so inviting that many drive from out of town just to eat here.

The Fish Eye Grill serves up amazing lunch and dinner options at affordable prices. The burger and sandwich offerings here are particularly delectable.
