Becks

Updated as of 10/7: I booked one of my favorite restaurants on my birthday in hopes to have an amazing time! I was pumped all day and all week for this day. I had a friend who came along with me to celebrate. We had a new waiter and he was very sweet. I’ve visited Beck’s several times and get the same dish every time because I like what I like and they prepare it to perfection. I’m allergic to rice so when I order salmon I get grits with no stir fry and definitely no wasabi over my salmon. I asked for roasted Brussels sprouts instead of collards this time. My friend wanted her salmon without the wasabi and told him of her desired veggie. Both came back not correct however the focus was more on my plate. I let him know that I didn’t ask for the stir fry veggies and he stated he thought I wanted Brussels sprouts in addition to the veggies. He immediately took the plate and said I will have them remake it. I was fine with them just taking the veggies off and bringing the Brussels but he left so quickly. The manager came and spoke to us and I assured her that the mixup wasn’t a problem. I was still anticipating my amazing favorite salmon. I believe in a rush to get it out to me it was undercooked and the manager and I both saw the middle of the salmon. She apologized and took it back to be cooked a little longer. When I finally got the salmon and grits, I tasted it and it was bland and just tasteless. I was shocked because I rated them my favorite. They cook it better than most places but tonight must have been an off night or maybe new cooks? I may dine here again but I will think long and hard before I commit to it. Between it being hard to obtain a front room seat that’s not reserved for VIPs and this… my views are now kind of tainted. I forgot to add that I didn’t eat anymore of the salmon and they took my dinner off of the bill. My friend ate her dinner although she didn’t care for the wasabi on it. Separate visit: I’ve visited a few times and the food first and foremost was amazing. The service is always great. I absolutely love salmon and typically order the dish when I go and it’s always perfect. I need to bring myself to try other entrees lol. Those that I’ve dined with have raved about their particular entrees as well.

First timer, it did not disappoint its reputation as being a top restaurant in Augusta. Great food in low-lighting is my kind of dining. Try the seasonal crab cake it’s probably the best one I’ve ever had (wish it was a staple item)!

As usual, we had a lovely time tonight! The food was phenomenal! Our waitress was very upbeat and informative. Thank you 😊

Kudos to Trip and Kate for making our evening special! Me and Víctor came around to trying oysters for the first time, and the briny tastes brought us a savory surprise! I do recommend to try one on top of a cracker with the marinara sauce and a bit of horseradish for a kick. And pleaseeee, if they do have chilly shrimp available, do yourself a favor and order TWO platers!

We did the private dining room for a rehersal dinner. We booked sight unseen as we were from out of town. The options were more than we could have hoped for and a good value. The food was amazing, the staff friendly and helpful. Guests kept commenting on how good the food was. The open bar service was exceptional. Two people stood out and I did not get their names, the lady who does the cooking and the lady who "runs" the private dining room. These two were professional, extremely helpful and genuinely nice people to work with. Our only complaint is there were no highchairs or booster seats.

What an amazingly fresh place to eat, Becks is a clean, classy, and casually cozy restaurant you’ve got to go try out sometime. With a friendly staff and comfortable environment to dine in, it’s worth that extra quality they put in the food you’ll enjoy. My hella fresh oysters were so delicious, great taste and portion size. The manager, Elizabeth Lopez, was lovely, hard working and as sweet as can be. Yall go support this team down there because they put in the effort.

I haven't been into the restaurant proper, but I can speak of the private room they offer. It's spacious. There's a stage for a small band to perform as well as a golf simulator. There's also a limited bar in the back. Perfect for a business party or even a special family event, like an engagement party. The mashed potatoes, beef, and salad were delicious. Very flavorful and filling. If oysters are your thing, you can go Rockefeller or get little baked ones topped with cheese and jalapenos. They also offer deep fried pimento cheese balls. (Not my favorite but an interesting concept.) Wings were delicious.

Beck's is very nice, intimate spot for fresh seafood, friendly service, and nice ambiance. The shrimp appetizer was delicious and a must-try. They offer a variety of seafood from oysters, grouper, fried catfish, flounder, salmon, and halibut. They also offer options for non-seafood lovers like the fried chicken sandwich, steak, and pork chop. The drink offerings were vast as well as the desserts! The apple crisp was awesome! Beck's is a great place for an intimate date night or group dinner with friends.

Food was great. Service was great. They need to commission some local artwork for the walls, especially the back of the restaurant. They needs to design the bathrooms better. Would have loved to see a seafood pasta or a bouillabaisse on the menu! They don’t serve bouillabaisse anywhere in the area, and of all the local restaurants, I think beck’s would be the best option to offer that dish. Jalapeño margarita is great. We had Hunter style oysters, pimento cheese hush puppies, shrimp burger, and flounder. It was all great! Ask for some “Alabama white sauce.” I would say, I wish they also had a broiled oyster option like they do at Abel brown.

Stopped in at Beck’s while visiting Augusta and was seriously impressed. I got the Caesar salad and the chicken sandwich, and both were excellent. The salad was fresh, crisp, and had just the right amount of dressing — not overdressed like some places. The chicken sandwich was the real standout though — juicy, perfectly fried, and packed with flavor. You can tell they care about the quality of their ingredients. Service was friendly and fast, and the vibe inside was casual but cool. Definitely a spot I’d come back to.
