About Georgia Brown's
Babies in their Sunday best bopping around to live jazz,
welcoming service, an array of Southern comfort food—it’s easy to see why
brunch at this elegant downtown eatery is a beloved tradition. Diners pay
$40.95 for an entrée plus access to a buffet piled with tender Virginia
ham, biscuits and sausage gravy, Belgian waffles with pecan-maple syrup,
myriad salads, and Creole-seasoned peel-and-eat shrimp. (Children ages 5
to 12 can graze the buffet for $21.95.) There’s a dessert table with a
chocolate fountain plus cupcakes and peach cobbler. The offerings are so
ample that many patrons take their main courses to go—don’t miss the
gravy-drenched fried chicken with collards and mashed potatoes or the
gumbo with spicy andouille sausage. Sunday 10 to 2:15.
