Great food, great service, friendly folks! Live right down the road from them and have been going there for, well, forever. Sandwiches are a solid hit with great ingredients and prep. Fast fast fast - I think they have some time machine doohickey in the back that lets them start prepping before I dial phone for pickup orders. Evening meals are great as well and always a big crowd. Still fast service so no complaints there. read more

We had a good quick lunch here while we were in town recently. We all enjoyed our sandwiches and the potato salad was really good. Surprisingly, there were no hot dogs on the menu though - we figured there would be due to the name LOL. read more

Ambiance? Never seen her. Best sandwiches ever? poplar dawgs. The sun dried ham was the star of the show. One guy was working the whole place but was doing a great job. Can't wait to come back. Try the smashed potatoes as your side! read more

Had the sandwiches for lunch, very good!! Nice, quiet little place but don't miss it. Went back for steak for dinner...I usually cook my steaks at home because I am so picky...hands down BEST STEAK ON THE LAKE! And I've had them all. read more

Great hot pressed/grilled sandwiches. Very simple building, nothing fancy. Great service for a quick, yummy meal!

OMG! How can you not love this place! I so wish I could remember the name of the neighborhood beagle (or maybe Bassett hound) that found his way inside where I was there! The staff and patrons were all so nice to him! I even took some steak outside for him, but he was gone. And don't worry, yes the staff were trying to remove him but honestly I think most of use patrons were rooting for the cute dog! read more

Great food great service great ambiance come get some good food. When Lake Martin this is the best steak.

Great sandwiches and the sweet tea was incredibly fresh and perfectly Alabama sweet. Got it to-go and it didn't disappoint. read more

See all

Their food tastes as if your grandmother is in their kitchen. My favorite thing to order is their homemade yeast rolls. They melt in your mouth and I'm not troubled by kneading or waiting for the dough to rise in my kitchen! I consider them so favorable I take home several dozen to freeze for later use. Other delicious items I prefer are fried or blackened catfish and grilled hamburgers. I eat few items but my friends and family voraciously consume from their extensive menu and are invariably satisfied! If you are fortunate Oscar will be there delighting diners with her humorous personality and upbeat attitude. If you meet her you will hope she's there every time you dine. And rest assured, you will return if you relish devouring savory food. read more

Excellent food with a relaxed dining experience. Always a positive experience! Great customer service!

Great sandwiches and great service. We've been eating lunch here several times weekly since we began work on a lake property. Daily lunch specials include (usually) hot sandwich chips and drink. Their Reuben is worth the visit alone. Outside eating area is dog friendly. read more

Been visiting Lake Martin for a few years but this was our first trip to Poplar Dawg's. Good service and great food. Probably some of the best baby back ribs I've had in a restaurant in a long time. Definitely recommend for their food variety, good prices and friendly atmosphere. It's on our visit again list. read more

Live these guys! I literally can say I had one of everything on this menu. And the people working there frown front to back are just all around good people. Best place to catch a chill relaxing vibe with good food and people read more

Happened to grab a cabin rental on the lake. Forgot our food and needed a quick bite before we started our day. This was the closest open spot. We thought hmm, grab a sandwich and be on the way... wrong. This place is amazing! 5 sandwiches each one was perfect. Definitely going to come back just for the food!!! Super friendly people as well! read more

This is the best kept secret around Lake Martin! They have amazing sandwiches and fresh salads during the week, and even better steaks and other entrees Thursday-Saturday evening. It's easy to pass this place up, but you'll wish you stopped! Don't forget to tip the awesome staff for always being great and running orders! read more

The chicken salad is excellent! We also like the prime rib and ribeyes on steak nights.

We took a family of over 10 and ate a fantastic and filling lunch for about $90 which included a few alcoholic beverages. Everyone loved their food and chosen side, as both the pasta salad and potato salad were delicious. Service was quick and very friendly. Quality meats and excellent breads! read more

I went on a Friday and took a couple of people and the steak is one of the best I have ever eaten!!! Very friendly family owned with great food!!! read more

We waited 3 hours! And the lobster was not cooked well it stuck to the shell and I had to scrap it off the shell and literally had 3 bites the best thing I ate and really the only thing I ate was the baked potato, we will probably need to make a sandwich when we get home, so many people were upset about the wait and there was no Organization when you walk it there is not a sign that says wait to be seated so people were just walking around asking what to do to be seated read more

Great food prices and service. Can't go wrong here. The only improvement would be expanded appetizer menu. Nice people and clean facility. Down to earth place and not trying to be fine dining so that makes it comfortable. read more

We have a house on the lake and make it a point to visit Poplar Dawg's every time we are in town. They have THE BEST sandwiches, great desserts, and AMAZING staff! All of their sandwich meat is Boar's Head and it is VERY fresh. Every sandwich is served hot (pan seared meat and cheese) with a side. One of the best places in town!!! If you ever visit Lake Martin, you MUST take the drive a bit out of town to Poplar Dawg's! read more

I don't know if they have a new cook, but the food was amazing. We all had steak, pork chops chicken and it was fantastic food. It was better than the Spring House and the prices were much better. Last year, I wasn't too impressed with the sandwich I had, so we really stopped going. We live close, so we will definitely be going back!!! read more

Best steak on the lake! Even after their recent price increase, it's still a good deal.

Dawgs comes through again. The service was excellent and the server was friendly. We were there for lunch on a Wednesday. I had chicken salad ----- salad. All excellent. Again excellent. This is good down home eating with healthy portions and reasonable prices. We will go back. read more

I give it a high 5 because the ribeye steak is always perfect....best ever for me. Service can be a bit spotty but I'm on vacation and don't care. Throw in a baked potato and a salad and I'm in heaven. Please keep it up Dawg! read more

I have been eating here for years and always had the best steaks and service. Tonight it took 45 minutes to get food and filet was burned.( Ordered medium). I said something to waitress about it taking so long and she said there was a new owner and cook. Won't be in business long with this service and food. read more

Had the Reuben Sandwich., it's delicious.. Gave 3 stars because service is not good. Took an hour from the time I ordered to the time delivered. Also, owner needs a better way to handle the check out. To go orders seem to take precedence. Why not have waitresses take the check up to the cashier? read more

great steaks and lunch time sandwiches were Very good

Went there for lunch today and was very pleased. The service was fast and friendly. We both hand sandwiches which were very tasty. Will definitely go there for dinner one evening. Nice addition to our places to eat around Lake Martin. read more

Best filet ever!! My husband loves the meaty porkchops!very friendly service! All round, hard to beat!!

Have eaten at Poplar Dawg's a number of times. We especially like Thursday Prime rib nights. The rib is small (about 14 ounces) but is tasty and plenty for us. They will tend to overcook it so ask them to cook it as you like it. read more
