What People Are Saying About Sweet Georgia Brown

In Short – Just a block from Greektown's strip of eateries, Sweet Georgia Brown features curvy retro booths and mirrors and rich textiles in muted shades of gold and green. "Fine food and all that jazz" are the promise, with live music complementing the chic soul food on most nights. Fried lobster is a popular signature dish, and sweet potatoes come in three configurations. Stay for dessert, as the Georgia peach cobbler is more than enough for two.

This restaurant closed in early 2009. While it may have been a wonderful place, they fell behind on rent, and were evicted.

high marks for this restaurant

by WillYun

No reservations for six, and we were seated in 15 minutes. Service was prompt and pleasant. Everyone ordered something different, and everyone was very pleased with their meal. The bill was astonishingly low. Will definitely return and recommend to others!

  • Pros: Great BBQ!
