I don't usually post about bad experiences, but tonight was one of those nights where I'm hoping I…read morecan save someone else the frustration we experienced tonight. Tonight was our final attempt at giving Pings another chance, and unfortunately it was even worse than the last time. We called more than 24 hours in advance to let them know we'd be bringing a large party. During that phone call they were so appreciative, would be sure to let the staff know, and would be sure to have a table set up for us outside. Once we arrived today, that completely changed and were told "it doesn't matter what you were told" and were completely dismissed by the manager. The manger actually said, you can wait, or leave. We decided to wait, even though we were already treated horribly just trying to check in. After waiting over 30 minutes to be seated, we were then told they didn't care that we were a party of 12 -- we were not allowed to move the outside tables together so we could sit as a group. This was after our previous visit, where we waited over an hour just to be seated, and then another hour for mediocre food. We genuinely hoped things would improve after they reopened, but the service and food are somehow worse than before. Save your time and your money. There are too many great local restaurants that actually value their customers.

I love this place!!! We're down here in Georgia to move my brother into college and stopped by this…read morejoint. The area where the restaurant is located is a little rough, but there's always a diamond within a rough! This is the diamond. I got the brisket plate straight from Memaw Cooper herself! And the fried pickles might be the best thing here. Crazy crisp and flavor! The service was splendiferous and she always kept up with us! This place is very very good and I will definitely come here again in the future! Shoutout Frank the Fly whom I shared my food with too. I think I brought him in, not the restaurants fault at all!

First, it is hard to find a BBQ place open on a Sunday. My husband and I were driving around…read moreHabersham County and oh my goodness. This place is AMAZING. Second, as soon as you walk in the door you feel like family. It seemed like everyone serving had a smile and were wanting to serve the customers even if it was not their specific table. Team work! Third, the food was SO SO good. We ordered a fried pickle appetizer, a combo of three meats-A FULL half of chicken, BBQ pork, and rib tips. Two sides- Fresh cut fries and Mac-n-cheese. The fried pickles were very crispy but we probably would not not get them again. I also think the ranch was bottled which I am not ever excited about. The star of the show was everything else. All the meats were moist, the smoke could stand on its own with no sauce. The fries were delicious. The mac and cheese was a little dry, but maybe it was the end of the pan. Give them a try. You will not be disappointed.

We almost didn't come here because of the rating, but a friend recommended it and we trusted her…read more I'm glad we did. The service was excellent. Staff were friendly and eager to please. Seating was roomy and comfortable. Bathroom clean. Our group got a variety of things from the menu and off menu. The pulled pork sandwich was right on. Couldn't eat all of so we saved it and ate it with some eggs at breakfast. Yum! The fried okra was hot and crunchy, and quite the serving. The little dish was heaped high with deliciousness. I got the Brunswick Stew, which was not on the menu, but on the specials board at the entrance. I never miss a chance to eat Brunswick Stew. It was just right. Not too spicy. Not too vinegary. I got a bowl and shared it. I also got the baked sweet potato. That was a real treat. The potato was hot and cooked to silky smooth. It's served with this brown sugar butter that made it a dessert. One our group got the fried apple pie with ice cream. I'm not a fan of fruit pies, but I did have a nibble of the crust. It was light and crispy. Not heavy, tough and crumbly as I've seen done by others in the mountains. I would almost eat a serving of fried crust dough. Serve with that butter for the sweet potato, and some ice cream-THAT would be awesome. On your way out don't forget to pick up some grits or pancake mix from Logan Mill. It's the only grits I serve at my house.

I was driving back to the Atlanta area from Desoto Falls and did a U turn to eat here when I saw…read morethey were called RIB COUNTRY because I LOVE RIBS. Sadly, I thought I couldn't read when I only saw baby back ribs on the menu. Is this place Chili's or an actual BBQ spot? I was so confused that Rib Country doesn't have spare ribs... I don't even care if they are beef, pork, or llama. Just give me some smokey bbq spare ribs please. Ambiance is hardcore bbq. Mustard sauce is king. Service is great and the brisket is decent. But alas, I came here for ribs...

The bread at the start was so fluffy and tasty. We started with the crispy Brussels spouts. My husband ordered the roasted prime rib and I ordered the salmon.

I enjoyed everything about this place and the experience. I was celebrating my anniversary and the…read morestaff made sure to congratulate us and gave us a free appetizer. The service was exceptional. Our entrees took a very long time to come out, so the assistant manager visited our table, apologized and asked us if she could give us anything. We appreciated the customer service but didn't request anything additional. The in-house Sourdough bread was very good. - B+ The Peach Burrata was really good, except for the peaches (but I am not a fan of peaches). I really enjoyed the flavor of the cheese and tomatoes. - A The Mushroom Risotto was bomb! Only thing I would change is add more mushrooms (but I am a super mushroom fan). - A+ Lastly, the Brussel Sprouts, they were seasoned perfectly and my partner stated they were the best he's ever had. - A+ Everything here is served in shareable portions. The night we went there was live music. The ambience is romantic and eccentric. Staff is polite and willing to take pictures of you, and give you hints of the best backgrounds. I highly recommend Community Brew & Tap.

The absolute best breakfast in the mountains of Georgia!…read more OMG... take your belt off and strap the top of your head down tight with it. Once you try their Philly steak omelette.... You're gonna want to keep the top of your head ... because it tastes so good your head might explode from how damn good it is. Add in the crispy cut potatoes, a great pancake and a hot cup of coffee ..... and you have a meal that is out of this world good. So fairly priced too. Another killer breakfast is The Sampler... this has a biscuit, gravy, eggs, the most delicious sausage patty you ever tasted, traditional bacon, Canadian bacon, grits and either toast or a pancake. So reasonable in price too! Just the two best breakfasts in the hills! And you're gonna be a fat ass when you walk out. It's soooooo good and filling!! If you want a burger.... This place has without a doubt.... The best burgers and the best prices for them. I kid you not. No exaggerating needed. Home cooked and juicy with great beef! To make the place even more amazing is the cute mountain interior inside a log cabin exterior. To set your day right... ask for Tiffany, she is a sweet dear with a twinkle in her eye. Tiffany has been there and is super attentive. She could be their secret weapon. All the workers there and servers deserve praise for being so friendly and jovial. All with great personalities! Lots of parking too. We own Thunder Ridge Lodge a get away cabin for couples in Cleveland GA....and we tell all of our great guests to go there and eat. And ask for Tiffany. They all say it was the best breakfast they've had and a great price. Far better than eating in Helen. We're going there now!
