Nice atmosphere. 130 or so year old building converted from an old bank. They have a table in the vault which looked fun. Food was really good. All 4 of us had great meals. Solid bourbon selection. Top2 or 3 restaurant in BRidge for sure. My 1st choice read more

Came with the family as we were in the area visiting and once again you trustee YELPERS guided us, right! We did a call ahead so we were seated immediately on arrival. This is a very quaint little restaurant built in an old banking site. The ambience is very interesting. There was live music throughout our lunch, which made it even more interesting because we are a musical family! Our server was very friendly and took our order almost immediately. The wifey ordered the Reuben Sandwich and she loved it. I was in the mood for a good old American cheeseburger, and I was not disappointed at all.. Dust went with the chicken salad and by the looks of it, he demolished it! Elle had the chicken with the pasta and she enjoyed it too! Sam had the Kiddy's Chicken Finger meal. I don't know. We had a really good afternoon and yes, we will definitely be back when in the area. FELLOW YELPERS I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE SO DO GIVE IT A TRY! read more

Such interesting atmosphere at this restaurant which at one time was a bank. Friendly service, extensive menu. I ordered the special, a 10 oz prime rib and my dining mate ordered the pecan crusted trout. Both dinners delicious. My prime rib cooked to order. Portion sizes all good, food plated nicely. Sides also good. I had peanut Asian style coleslaw and green beans, my dining mate had mashed potatoes and a kale salad. Pricey menu but delicious food. A memorable meal read more

The General Ledger - Angi's 60 birthday - Sandwiches Near Me - Blue Ridge, Georgia

We met friends for dinner on a busy Friday night. Reservation was for 6:30, and we were seated immediately. Very friendly and patient waitress gave us plenty of time to chat and decide on drinks and entrees. We ordered oysters Rockefeller and cocktails. The oysters were tasty and the drinks were perfect. I had the cedar plank salmon, my wife had the shrimp & grits. Service was attentive. A great evening and meal in one of Blue Ridge's most popular restaurants. read more

This is a great restaurant. It's an old bank that still has the vault inside. If you are lucky maybe you could eat inside it. Very nice bar with casual upscale feel. Reservations are recommended. Service was excellent. You must start with the homemade cornbread. It is delicious. My wife ordered the fresh trout over mashed potatoes. Trout was very good. Potatoes were creamy and hot. I started with a salad that was very good. My meal was the delicious bone in pork chop . It was covered with an apple chutney. Green beans were freshly cooked perfectly. This is our favorite restaurant in blue ridge. read more

We were in town for a bachelorette weekend (total of 8 ladies) and was spending Friday night in town so we came here for dinner. I called about 2 weeks before and made a reservation for us. We had seen online that there was a vault that you could sit in (this restaurant used to be an old bank) so I did try to request it but it wasn't guaranteed. When we arrived, we were not seated in the vault (which was fine). Our server greeted us right away and got our drink orders in, etc. We ordered some apps - pork belly, cornbread, fried green tomatoes and salmon dip. The salmon dip was SOOOO good, that was my favorite for sure. The fried green tomatoes and cornbread were also good. I did not try the pork belly, but heard from the other girls that they enjoyed it. For entrees, a lot of the ladies ordered one of the specials, which was a fish dish with gnocchi. Unfortunately, the gnocchi was not cooked correctly and nobody liked that part of their dish. The rest of it was good they said, it had great flavor. I ordered the pescatore pasta and I really enjoyed that - good flavor, good amount of lobster, calamari and shrimp! They ordered the peach cobbler as well and said it was pretty good. Overall, we had a nice time and everyone enjoyed their food for the most part. read more

This was a highlight of our trip to Blue Ridge! We really loved the ambiance and the service was fantastic.

My friend and I decided to eat here on a Sunday evening and it was really busy. We class at the bar and ordered drinks and food from there. The handhelds we ordered, Reuben's, was super good, cilantro curry rice have very little flavor but was not a really negative. Also, the drinks were made well, because of how busy it was refills were a little long but completely understood. read more

My party and I attended the General Ledger for some dinner reservations last Saturday night. It was very busy but they were able to accommodate us about 10 minutes early and give us a relatively private area for a large group. The service was very kind and attentive and our waitress was able to effectively and efficiently serve our table with a bright smile! The food itself was great! The cordon blue sandwich had so much flavor. I loved the addition of the red peppers as it really took it over the top. The white cheddar croquettes that I got as the side were tasty but needed a little salt. I tried my sister's burger and the patty was HUGE. You definitely get your moneys worth with any of these sandwiches. Overall, worth a visit if you're in the blue ridge area and looking for your next dinner stop. read more

What a cute place! Just left the bank field. We were sad right away. We went in early for lunch. The server was top-notch spot on water filled to the rim plates cleared very attentive. He did a excellent job. We ended up splitting a salad with steak and it was so delicious. But we also split the cornbread, which was like dessert. It was so sweet and yummy. Lots of butter! Super cute place great food great service highly recommend. read more

Overall, the service was really good, food was alright. My wife had the pappardelle pasta which was just okay, it needed some additional seasoning as it was fairly flat. I had the pecan crusted trout, which I have to say is why this get a 4, it was very good with that Red Currant Citrus Chardonay. read more

Great food & atmosphere. Unfortunately, you can only have one drink on the table. I like a craft cocktail to slowly sip throughout my meal and usually a glass of wine with dinner. Had to choose one or the other. It's odd- never had this problem at any other restaurant in town. read more

I ordered the trout. The portion was huge, and it was delicious. Wish I knew the cocktails my friends ordered, but I know they enjoyed them!

A+ all around. Pork belly went for appetizer. Excellent. Kids menu is all you typically want. The chicken tenders were pretty big. Huge fruit bowl too. We had the goat cheese salad with steak. Excellent. Service was A+. Everything came out fast. Awesome place! This is probably great for just drinking too. Had some great Tropicana something IPA I was not familiar with. Totally 5 stars. read more

July 4th, 2024 - How lucky are we that the General Ledger has availability and on July 4th weekend. Let me tell you that we have been here before twice and we had to make reservations way in advanced. It is THAT GOOD!. If you are in Blue Ridge, this restaurant needs to be in your list of restaurants to visit. It is located in the main street in a beautiful historic bank building from the 1920's hence the name, General Ledger. It even still has the original vault. To make things even cooler, you can reserve to eat with your party inside! If you go, you must order their cast-iron cornbread, green chilis, cheddar cheese, sweet corn & served with honey butter. I could just eat it all by myself. Our server recommended we ordered the Crispy Crab Fritters blue crab, shrimp, lobster ginger sauce, pepper relish. The sauce was the perfect complement to the cornbread. We ordered from their lunch specials menu the meatloaf. Oh boy! it was mouthwatering. The meat was so tender and juicy. We ended up sharing it. Our server was wonderful, very friendly and hospitable. I am certainly going back, this time for dinner. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

The General Ledger - Cornbread is a must! - Sandwiches Near Me - Blue Ridge, Georgia

Fair. Need more draft selections on tap. Food could have been better. Burger was like a frozen half bubba burger with no flavor. Fries were ok. The Caesar salad was very good homemade cornbread croutons. Service was good. Ambiance was ok but loud for the few patrons who were there. The seating tables were right on top of the bar patrons which made it difficult to get in and around. read more

Stopped in for lunch after a wine tour and I was so happy we did. Our server did an amazing job of providing recommendations on both dishes and cocktails. The inside is welcoming and perfect for any group dining in. Appetizer: fried green tomatoes were perfectly crisp on the outside, well seasoned and flavorful. Entree: Shrimp & Grits: delicious!!! Cocktail: White Sangria. This tequila based sangria was one of the best I've ever had as just as visually beautiful. read more

Add this place to your Blue Ridge restaurant bucket list because it's so worth it! I actually found rave reviews on a random blogger I watched and decided I must try. Just in case, I made a reservation for Thursday dinner. The day of our reservation, someone called me to confirm our reservation. It wasn't quite a full house on Thursday, but was pretty busy. We were seated right away to our table upon checking in. We perused the regular menu and the special menu that offered things like meat loaf, NY strip (the only two things I could remember on top of my head). While they have a lot of wine and liquor options to choose from, their cocktails selections were funky. My husband ended up ordering an old fashioned and an espresso martini for me. I was worried when the server asked if I wanted cream or not, so I opted for no cream mostly because I'm lactose intolerant. When the drinks arrived to the table, I noticed that my martini was a light brown color. It was not a traditional martini but it was fine for what it was. The food though is where it's at! We started the cornbread skillet with bits of jalapeños and topped with butter. I thought the added jalapeños balanced out the sweetness of the cornbread. I loved the crunch sides since it was cooked on a cast iron. Easily shareable and our group of 2 didn't finish the cornbread. For entree. I ordered the General Ledger salad with goat cheese and steak cooked medium rare as the added protein (yes, goat cheese still has lactose but has lower amounts of lactose than cow's milk so don't came at me, lol). It's a big serving of salad with two golf ball size pieces of goat cheese coated in panko crust. Dressing was delicious and loved the added crunch from the pecans. The steak though was cooked perfectly and marinated in some sweet/vinegar/garlicky-based marinate because it was so flavorful! My husband ordered one of the specials - 12oz NY strip that was served with risotto and green beans. He enjoyed the steak but thought the risotto was a little undercooked. Green beans were still crunchy and delicious. We inhaled both of our entrees, then comes our wonderful server asking if we wanted dessert. So duh, and she brought us a menu. This is where our wonderful meal went downhill. We opted for the fruit cobbler of the day, which happens to be peach. Our server did warn us that it's not a typical cobbler but it's more of a cake-y cobbler so we decided to try. Both of my husband and I love a good dessert and this just wasn't it for us. He didn't even touch it after the first bite and I only ended up eating the peaches; there was just something off about the dessert. Nevertheless, everything else we ate was good. Service was wonderful. I'd recommend, just maybe skip dessert. read more

We sat at the bar and had the Oysters Rockefeller & Swordfish over kale and quinoa special that was absolutely delicious. There is a very cool little vault in the back of the restaurant that apparently has a private dining space inside. Great meal in a neat spot right off the Main Street drag- I'd definitely go back. read more

First off, our server, Jonathan was amazing. Secondly, the food was stellar. We ordered 1 dozen of the fresh oysters and they were out of this world. Super fresh, very mild. Then we both ordered the pecan crusted trout and it was some of the best trout I have ever had. Many places have way too thick of a crust, hiding the flavor of the fish- not here. Perfectly crusted. The Kale salad was great and we ordered the Daly e for the fish on the side not sure how it would taste. But it was delicious. Still glad it was in the side, that way the fish didn't get soggy. Great place! We will be back! read more

Had dinner here with a larger group and we sat inside the vault and it was such a fun time. The cornbread is unreal, the oysters were so good and the crab cake ball things were so good too. I got the blackened pork chop and it was exactly what the server described. A lot of my friends got the chicken pasta and they loved that. I wish I got the potato croquettes but I'll have to come back. I didn't try any of the speciality cocktails but I did get their pomegranate mocktail and added tequila to it and omg it was so good. I would go back just for that tbh. read more

My fiance and I were visiting Blue Ridge with 2 other couples for the weekend. Blue Ridge downtown gets quite busy in the weekends and a lot of restaurants cut off their reservations at 5 ppl. General Ledger was able to accommodate us and were happy to do so. It used to be an old bank and they have a really cool dining room that was the old vault! The restaurant is classy yet casual, the servers (ours was Keegan) are friendly and welcoming. The owner used to be a server and you can tell she runs the place as a family business. We ordered wings, a Cobb salad with shrimp, the ledger salad, burgers and cornbread. The burgers were well seasoned but the toppings were sparse, 1 slice of onion and 1 piece of lettuce. The Mac and cheese was amazing. The croquettes were AMAZINGGGG. GET THEM. If I could only eat carbs this is what I eat all day, think loaded potato marries sour cream and onion potato chips. The salads are huge and both the Cobb and Ledger salad were delicious. The Cobb dressing was interesting, sweeter than I prefer but still good. The Ledger salad, the fried goat cheese make you want to go to heaven. The wings were crisp, flavorful but didn't pack enough punch in the spice level. But would still order again. Overall, the ambiance, the service and the food, I will 100% be back! read more

We came here for my Birthday Dinner. I left happy and full! This location is an old bank. That gives it a cool feel with the open vault. Some people even dine in the vault. Service was great. The food was really good. I got the shrimp and grits and my wife got the Salmon. The stunner was the strawberry bread pudding! It was amazing. Great place in Blue ridge for a dinner and cocktail. read more

On our annual Girls Trip, based on reviews, we made reservations at The General Ledger. The restaurant did not disappoint. The atmosphere is adorable , the staff friendly and best of all the food was great. I had the Fried Chicken Paillard which was very tasteful. The chicken was juicy and the entire dish was nice and lite. To add to our evenings enjoyment we were celebrating two birthdays and each were given a lovely dessert. A great evening for our Girls weekend! read more

The best parts about the GL are the location, setting, ambiance, bar, and service (Valerie was so excellent), and wine list. The food is a bit hit or miss, but the hits are really good. First, if you enjoy bourbon, try their "S'mores Old Fashioned" Don't worry it's not sweeter than a regular old fashioned but their use of bitters is fantastic. Well done barkeeper team!!! Second, if they put quail on the menu, you must try it. This was some of the best quail I ever had in a special. Absolutely delicious. Also, we really liked the ruben, but the cornbread and the chocolate chip cookies were both too sweet for our taste. The caesar dressing also didn't have the "punch" that one expects from sardines. Third, their wine list is pretty good and mark ups are modest, so there are some good deals to be found. Fourth, this is right on main street in an old bank. It's such a cool setting. read more

We were in blue ridge for a Bach party and had went to general ledger for dinner one of the nights. We were impressed that we were able to get reservations for a group of 16 people! Upon arriving, and throughout dinner service, the staff was a bit sassy and rude towards the people in our group. Service was okay, but definitely could have been better. The food was really good, and was a decent portion! Pricing for everything was also very fair. Overall I think this location has potential, and perhaps we came on an off night for service. I would consider giving them another chance if we were ever in the area again! read more

The General Ledger - Chicken and pasta dish - Sandwiches Near Me - Blue Ridge, Georgia

Sooooo, we ordered drinks. Mine didn't come until I asked a second time after our food arrived. They were out of portobello, mushroom burgers, so two of us ordered burgers, one medium rare and the other medium. The server reversed the burgers, which wasn't noticed, until after the burgers were dressed, and bitten into. Instead of medium rare, I had a medium burger. The medium rare burger got sent back. I ordered the peanut ginger slaw, and got plain old coleslaw with lots of mayo. I asked and was told that we got the peanut ginger slaw. The server was sweet, but she needed to listen and pay attention to details so she didn't have to apologize so much. read more

10/10 I had the ribeye with croquettes and green beans. It was the best ribeye I have ever had! We were seated at the bar even though we didn't have a reservation and I'm so glad we were given the chance to dine at the general ledger. They have this really cool vault in the restaurant that you can enjoy dinner in. I thought this was super unique. The owner came around and spoke with guests, she spoke with my neighbor Peggy Sue, who is a regular at the restaurant. Peggy Sue raved about the restaurant and gave me suggestions on the menu. Really nice place I highly recommend it! read more

SO. GOOD!!!!! It went so fast, I don't even remember eating it! lol. We came for lunch and had a chicken Caesar with grilled chicken, black eyed pea and collard greens soup and portobello mushroom salad with white cheddar croquettes, and a Kaiser roll with fixings and their French fries. Our lunch server, Lisa, was AMAZING, and SO helpful, she made us want dessert, but we couldn't fit it in. Everything was so good, we came back after dinner for dessert. We had the chocolate chip cookie skillet, Apple pecan crumble, and white chocolate bread pudding with berry compote. FREAKING DELICIOUS!!! Our dessert server, Katie, was also awesome! I can not say enough about how amazing this place is. Do not miss the opportunity to eat here!! Thanks, General Ledger, for an amazing meal and dessert!!! We enjoyed great memories! read more

If you ever stop here to eat, make sure to ask for Luke. What a great server he was; very attentive and kept our drinks full. We were a party of 8 people and he took our orders correctly. Also would highly recommend making a reservation to be seated inside the vault (about 8-10 people comfortably). The ambiance inside the vault is quieter than the rest of the restaurant. We were able to hear each other's conversation and talk without yelling. We would recommend the corn bread skillet and fried green tomatoes for the appetizer. Our main course, Braised Pork, Bacon wrapped Scallops, and Ribeyes, just to name a few, were all delicious. Thanks again, Luke, for taking care of us. A job well done!! read more

The restaurant had a good ambiance with the whiskey display at the bar and the old bank documents on the wall. The service was excellent with both bartenders and server. We started with the stuffed mushrooms which were excellent. I had the Pescatore Pasta with scallops, shrimp and squid. The flavor was good but I could have used a little more spice. My wife had the Prime Rib which was cooked perfect and tasted the same. Dessert, Cookie skillet, took a little long but there were several large parties and we were in no rush. When dessert finally arrived we were glad it to a while so our stomachs could make room. The cookie tasted homemade. read more
