Public & General Restaurant

"We don't give out 5 ✨ They earned it Keep in mind , this place is more like a tavern / saloon then restaurant. So expect loud, and chaotic. But, the Food alone is well worth the time. House pasta, Trout, and fried green tomatoes. Service was great. Price is good. $75 for four drinks,two meals,and App. Portions great . It's just loud , so be ready."

"Something different in Gainesville, not your normal sit down dinner restaurant. This is more so a taven than a restaurant but was still a fun night out. Here you order at the bar, take a number, then seat yourself. We started with some mixed drinks and the dill fries and then the Charcuterie board. The food and drinks were great, but a bit expensive. Service was wonderful."

"This market/bar/eatery earned its 5 stars, but not in the way you’d think. When you walk in, it’s a seat yourself and order at the bar type of place. They give you your drink then and there, but send you with a number and bring your food to you. It was loud, but I ordered at the bar, per the custom. They brought me my food and unfortunately it was the Pork Tacos. Now, I love pork tacos, but I had ordered the pork chop. A simple misunderstanding as my order had been misheard. They apologized profusely and offered me a free drink after I told them I’d eat the tacos. Some may say they get a knock in ratings for this. To me, they made a human error (in truth I should have ordered louder) and made it right. 5 stars. Also, the tacos were bomb."

"Beautiful selection of meats and cheeses. My boyfriend loved the chimichurri steak. All the staff were super friendly, and the bartender made me a delicious non-alcoholic cocktail. I didn’t care for having to order at the bar, but it wasn’t a big deal either; just something to know beforehand."
