We almost didn't eat here because the rating was so low. The service was great and the food was delicious!

I had the popcorn shrimp plate with a baked potato and it was delicious. I had the rest the next day as lunch and it was still tasty. My server was incredibly nice and took great care of me. All of the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful, in fact. The river view table I had was nice as well. read more

DO NOT COME HERE. Two different people in our party had hair in their food. The steaks were overcooked. The hush puppies were under cooked. Their salads tasted like they had been made 3 days prior. We asked if we could push two tables together by the window to be able to see the river and they refused even though the place was half empty when we got there. When you first walk in the door it reeks of smoke. Also the price is expensive for what you get. Expected better, left disappointed, won't be back read more

We haven't been to Paul's in quite a few years, but the food was awesome. We don't get seafood a lot, and it was really good. They were so fast. I didn't even finish my salad before the food came.. iPaul's is always a good place to watch the river go by read more

The restaurant looks fancier than it is, and it has a great view of the river. The menu is full of beef and seafood dishes for piles of money. I ordered the rainbow trout. It came with two sides but there were no vegetable sides other than potatoes (baked or mashed potatoes) I even asked the server but his only suggestion was the salad. Okay, I had a baked potato and the salad. The salad was pretty good with fresh romaine lettuce and two grape tomatoes and a spoonful of grated carrot. It was minimal but I still appreciated something green. My trout was broiled nicely and tasted good. The potato was plain but well-cooked. Our server Patrick was friendly and seemed to enjoy his work. read more

Paul steakhouse was a disappointment for us. The staff was amazing however chicken was extremely tough. The steaks are all pre seasoned so anyone with allergies cannot have steak. Prime rib was ok however and coleslaw I found spicy. Be aware they charge a big surcharge to use card there! read more

This place is absolutely terrible. Staff was extremely rude. Would not recommend at all

Just went for drinks. 3 house margaritas with a grand marnier float $85 plus tip. Nothing else ordered, just the drinks. Tourist trap, avoid at all costs. read more

Avoid this tourist trap at all costs. Less for more is what you get. There are better places if you want a good steak. The waiters were nice enough, but it was disorganized and rushed. We got someone else's food *twice*, and our steaks didn't come out like we asked. Mine was barely edible with how chewy it was, and my girlfriends was overcooked, maybe alright if we were paying for something cheaper. For the price its awful, youre paying a tourist tax for the view and they might not even sit you where you get the view. It would be alright if it were maybe a quarter of the price. Id expect this quality out of a poorly run longhorn. Sides were good though. Nearly ruined my anniversary, would give negative stars if I could. read more

Will make you sick, worst food I've ever eaten period. Hands down. Skip this entire town. Absolutely not fit to eat. Threw up 15 minutes after leaving this place needs shutdown. read more

$$ Right next-door to Paul's steakhouse is Paul's margarita deck, which overlooks the Chattahoochee river with plenty of seating riverside! We stopped here just for a quick snack... Margarita and some onion rings. You order your drink and food with the bartender and you pick up your food at the kitchen window. There's plenty of condiments in the cafeteria style kitchen area. The best thing was sitting Riverside on the deck and watching the people in the in tubes flow by. Great conversation, great weather, and pretty solid pub food. Safe journeys! read more

Wow incredible food 1/2 rack of ribs huge and my large shrimp were colossal in size as were their baked potatoes. The side salads were fresh and refreshing. Ben our waiter was super nice and attentive. The restaurant had lots of tables without feeling crowded. If you're in the Helen area this is definitely the place to eat. Pricing was very reasonable for a he portions you received so I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

A must go to in Helen! Every time we go to Helen this is the first place we stop We pay $20 to park but they give you $20 coupon to use inside. So it's basically free. We have the souvenir mugs and our michelob beer refill is $12 for a 32oz. They have live Good music more dancing music late. Lemon drop shots are amazing! We also got the cheese fries. They looked good but didn't taste great and the ranch was nasty. read more

Went on a holiday weekend. Staff sat us in the bar area because they saw we didn't have children and then took 30 minutes before they even addressed us. Food was either overcooked (baked potato) or ice cold (chicken parm). The prime rib had zero seasoning and was 40% fat and gristle. The salad was the one good thing about the meal. We had food debris in our glass so didn't even drink the soda I ordered. But wow, that check hit our table lightning quick. Not going back. read more

The Margarita Bar opens early, & is next to Paul's, which opens later at 4pm. Same owner. The Reuben sandwich was good. Rye bread was soft. I wish it had been toasted more, but it was a good sandwich, around $12. Came with a bag of Ruffles potato chips. The margarita was on the rocks & handmade. There are two ordering windows. You show your ticket number to pick up your food after they call your number. Incredible seating viewing the Chattahoochee River right outside. Lots of families. Calm, fun atmosphere. read more

Server was very nice and accommodating. However Prime rib was terrible. Sorry but it was. Very disappointed for a 44.00 meal.

We had NYE dinner here and had a great experience. The restaurant was clean, the staff were nice and hospitable. We sat in the lounge area, and we had a wonderful server named Adam, make sure to ask for him on your next visit. All tables had great view to the bar TV's, and had a great vibe. The food was very delicious, you could tell it was freshly made and the portions were very generous. My husband had the country fried steak, and I ordered their surf and turf. I highly recommend this place, at your next visit to Helen, GA. read more

We got sat right on time, the food was fresh , our steak was perfect, the server was super friendly.

This was the worst prime rib, there was more fat than meat. The shrimp is overcooked. I would not recommend this restaurant to my worst enemy. There is no value for you dollar here, please look elsewhere for a good meal. I would rate this under one star. read more

Everything was just bland. My wife had salad with chicken added. The chicken had absolutely zero flavor. I had a NY Strip, it was the same, no flavor at all. It's like they hadn't seasoned it, not even with salt. Should have known it wasn't going to be good when the waiter asked if I wanted "steak sauce." I've never been to a good steak house and had a waiter ask if I wanted to screw up the seasoning with store bought steak sauce. The fries were straight out of a bag, when I ordered them I thought I'd get some hand cut steak fries. The best thing about the dinner was the coleslaw, it was good. I was told by a local that we should have went to Campfire if we wanted good food. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner experience at Paul's! We were seated right away at a window overlooking the river, which made for a beautiful view. Our waitress was so sweet, and the food came out surprisingly fast. The fried shrimp dinner was tasty and fresh, and the house salad with blue cheese dressing was delicious. For dessert, we had the Reese's Pieces pie--it was a perfect sweet ending! The location is right in the main area, so it's easy to walk to, and they have their own parking lot. Prices felt fair compared to other places nearby. Baring cash so you can avoid the fee if you use a card. read more

The foods way overpriced our drinks stayed empty stay from this place go to Wendy's you will have a better time

Chicken was dry, cheese sticks were meh, salad wasn't great. Steak wasn't cooked completely right. Expensive for what you get. Not a fan.

We went there for our 20th Anniversary, thought we would go to a nice restaurant, The outside looked great and was by the river. We go inside, table for two. They sat us in a booth near the wall. No atmosphere, I said to my husband there are empty tables by the window maybe we can sit over there. He asked and they said yes. We ordered a drink and wanted the Lobster bisque, they were out of it! So we ordered the bang bang shrimp.. Tasted as though it came out of a freezer bag. I ordered the ribeye & lobster tail and my Husband ordered the Salmon & lobster tail. Both pricey but it was our Anniversary. Received our salad, nothing much lettuce, carrots and a few cherry tomatoes. Then we received our meals. The lobsters were decent but I have had better but my steak was horrible. It literally looked like it was taken from the freezer to the microwave and then pressed on the grill. It tasted awful, I couldn't eat it. My husband felt bad and offered his lobster to me, which he knows is my favorite but I couldn't eat anything else in that place. We didn't complain to the waitress but she knew something was wrong but never said anything. I went up to the register to pay and told the cashier/manager that the food was horrible. She took $20off on a bill of $167. I do not recommend going there. Not worth what they charge per meal $$$. read more

Food was good service was excellent price ok got 12 oz ribeye steak and wife got ribs

I was blown away at how HUGE this lobster tail was! Oysters were great. Steak was cooked a hair longer than I would've liked but the restaurant was extremely busy. Which is understandable. Great views right on the river! read more

For a birthday dinner while on vacation we chose Paul's. Had we read the reviews first, we would have kept on walking! The beef tips tasted as if they were boiled, so so disappointing and quite frankly not eatable. The bill was over $50.00 for two without drinks. This experience has taught me to always read reviews. My advise to anyone thinking of eating there, keep walking. The server was a nice guy and attentive. I did leave a nice tip for him as it was not his fault the food as not satisfactory and way overpriced. read more

Surf and turf was as expected for a little mountain town. Flavor was great but lobster a little chewy. Enjoyed viewing the river from my table. Service is excellent. read more

It can't get any worse. Terrible food and atmosphere. There is no reason to come here when Helen has so many good places to eat.

The food was really good and well prepared. We both had the mountain trout, grilled and fried. It was delicious, as well as the sides. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. read more

My wife and I are from Summerville SC and we know good oysters shrimp and lobster and our prices are not near the rip off this place asks. I can go go to Texas roadhouse and get a better steak. The couple next to us said their steak was maybe a b for the price. Lower you prices they are horrible never again, tourist ripoff! read more

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for years. We come to Helen at least once a year. Finally stopped by with family a few days before Christmas. We were able to get in right away without a reservation. Unfortunately service was extremely slow. We saw a family ask to be moved to a different section because of this particular server's slow service. He really needed some help. My brother ordered a beer, server went to go get our beverages, came back to tell him they were out of what he ordered. This process repeated about 3 times until my brother finally said "Tell me what you do have then." It took a long time to get food. Then when it did arrive, most were unhappy with the quality. Baked potatoes weren't cooked through enough. (Centers were still hard.) Flavor lacked in a few of the meals. My brother ordered grilled shrimp, but was brought fried shrimp. He told them he'd eat it anyway. My lobster was raw in the middle. They did take it back and cooked a new one. It came out overcooked, but I'd rather that than raw. Honestly, they should have offered to comp that part because brining out raw food is just dangerous, and they should have comped the shrimp that were incorrect for My brother. My husband enjoyed his trout. My SIL enjoyed her lobster bisque. I think everyone else had something they were unhappy with in their meal. We were a party of 9. read more

Our first trip to Helen, Shannon @ Paul's was so welcoming & shared things about the area- we went back several times just because we knew she was working! Bar area is great if you're adults only, hungry & don't want to wait in line... read more

Food was fine but definitely a tourist trap with crazy prices. Especially for ROCK lobster not the good lobster from cold waters of northeast. They are also breaking the law charging a fee to use a debit card. An extra 2.69 for us but Durbin Amendment says this is illegal. I will be reporting this. read more
