Best dinner and impeccable service. I had the seafood special, halibut and marinated olives as an appetizers. The server was so sweet and gave us delicious wine recommendations. I will visit again.
We always enjoy eating at The National! The food is a delicious adventure with spices and veggies that I'm not always familiar with but am delighted to try. And the wait staff is consistently friendly and attentive. It can get a bit noisy in the dining room, but I guess that's what happens when lots of people are enjoying themselves in a not very large space.
Loved the food. The flavors were there and the presentation was great. We had the hanger steak, warm chickpea and ocra salad and anchovies bruchettas. I was impressed by the combinations of spices. A perfect crossover between southern and Mediterranean food. As dessert we had the cheese plate which was also very good. I especially enjoyed the smoked cheese. Very very good.
The National is our favorite restaurant in Athens, GA, and actually a favorite anywhere. Food is consistently delicious with fabulous favorites on the menu and ALWAYS fun specials. The staff is professional, friendly and supremely competent. The atmosphere is a perfect and somehow comes off as both cozy neighborhood and chic cosmopolitan.
