Octagon Extreme Cafe

Such good home-cooking! I'm not big on eating "home cooking" at restaurants because it never quite lives up to that promise of tasting like great-granny's mashed potatoes and Aunt Ethel's macaroni and cheese. You know what I mean. Well! We dropped in the other night (thankfully not with my Celiac husband). I got the beef tips, green beans, and mashed potatoes. First of all, you pay about $8 for two sides, a meat, a roll/cornbread, and a drink, which is a little high to me. BUT you get so much food! I couldn't finish all of mine, which was a shame. I think the potatoes were actually and really mashed potatoes, because I got a lump now and again that wouldn't be possible with instant. The beef tips were also excellent, tender, and not nearly as fatty as I would've guessed. The green beans were good, and my mom even commented that they were "grandma green beans" because it tasted truly southern and home-made. We were really impressed.

(For any Celiacs following or surfing my reviews: This isn't safe for you, and I don't recommend it for you. For anyone else, YES. It was super tasty. But it cannot accommodate gluten-free needs probably unless you only have an intolerance.)

I love the Octagon Cafe.
The kind of dishes that I like,.. Quickly...
That means a lot, with my schedule...

I'm pleasantly surprised the food here is actually delicious. I had low expectations based on what I saw on the bar during previous visits to the mall later in the evenings. I recently moved to milledgeville and I've been tasting my way through the city. So far I havent been thoroughly impressed with any of the local options and very few of the chain options. I decided to visit octagon cafe during peak lunch time to ensure I was getting the full menu fresh. What I ordered was well prepared and surprisingly well seasoned. I honestly expected bland food. The price was great as well. I will definitely go back.

Love vegetable plate. Kind, friendly staff!!! The owner is the sweetest lady. Always enjoy talking to her.

I was a customer for years, especially on Thursday for Turkey and dressing. I retired and still stopped by for lunch. I happened to mention I was looking for part time work. Got hired on the spot, been there 15 months. All of our food is home cooked, we strive for consistency in taste and quality. I recommend anyone to come by and judge for yourself.

I absolutely love eating at Octagon! All of their food is absolutely delicious! It’s something I can easily pick up on the way home for dinner or for lunch. I love being able to get a good balanced meal without having to cook and at a great price!

My favorite country cooking restaurant in Milledgeville and they serve the best turkey and dressing in town.. only on Thursdays and special holidays!!! Miss Kathryn and her crew do a great job!!! It is located in the Milledgeville Mall.

DELICIOUS HOME COOKED FOOD. THE FRIED CHICKEN & PORK CHOPS ARE MY FAVORITE. THE SIDE ARE SO GOOD. THE VEETABLES ARE JUST LIKE FRESH OUT OF THE GARDEN. THE PRICES ARE GOOD, & THE DESERT IS WONDERFUL. SUCH A VERY NICE & COZY HOMEY CAFE, THE SERVICE IS FIRST CLASS, & I LOVE EATING HERE! TAKE OUT IS MOSELY WHAT I DO.

Food is fantastic, taste good, customer service awesome all around wonderful place will come back every time I’m in town. I’m not a black eye pea fan but theirs looked so good I tried them and it was the best I ever taste!

I have eaten here many dozens of times in the past year. I almost always have the fried chicken which is excellent every time. I will keep going back.

It was so good! I've gonna three times now and it's definitely my favorite place to go when I'm hungry! Definitely my number one spot in Georgia!

Amazing!! Good HOMEMADE MASHED POTATOES good!! So far everything has been tasty and like grandma made it. Ate there two days in a row and am going back again soon!

I have to say this is one of the best restaurants I have been to in along time. Food is awesome and the service is excellent. If you haven't tried it you are missing out.
