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

Cute spot! They had live music which was entertaining. We stayed for one drink & an appetizer. Our server was very nice & attentive. The place is spacious & clean. If traveling with a baby there are no changing tables fyi I saw food being served to guests & they all looked good & a big portion. read more

Lovely spot in historic DT Blue Ridge located inside a formally restored 1926 banking institution. While some have the option to dine inside the actual vault I opted to step out & dine in the general area where the tellers might have been back in the day. There's just something about a huge steel door potentially closing that makes me a little uneasy! But the concept it great! Service was warm & welcoming. Food was good but our mushroom came out a bit cold in the middle. No biggie because the corn bread was a really winner & you MUST get it even if for a nibble! The porterhouse style porkchop was amazing & my Ruben was pretty decent in taste & sharing size! The full bar is great so they should be able to whip up whatever your heart's desire. Most definitely a place to check out! Keep in mind that they close for a couple of hours after their lunch session is over so always call ahead! read more

The General Ledger - Kale Salad - American Near Me - Blue Ridge, Georgia

We are from out of town and wanted to try this place out. Our service was great. She was so sweet and the food was really good. The cornbread was different, but was still good. It was loud when we were there because on Sundays they have a duo singing but we got used to it. They were good, i just wish it would've been a little quieter but the crowd really liked them so that was nice to see. 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 steaks and service again with Ivy, surpassed Our expectations. We will be back. 5 plus stars for Ivy and the Great stall read more

Consistent quality food, and especially great trout. Former bank building with vault still accessible for seating of large groups. We were 6 and had a blast in the vault. Good service. Nice atmosphere. Good for bar sitting/eating. East walking in downtown Blue Ridge. 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

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

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 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

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

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

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

Great service from Cheyanne! Food was delicious. I had the Caesar salad and shrimp and grits and both were fantastic.

I really enjoyed the oyster which serve on Wednesdays. Our bartender Katy was the greatest, knowledgeable, fast and friendly. The atmosphere was friendly and inviting. I'll definitely make a second visit. read more

The server was a nice guy, but was not particularly comfortable in my dining experience, both due to the food itself, style of service, and ambiance. Starting with the food, my girlfriend and I got the following items: -the cornbread -fried green tomatoes -general ledger salad -pecan crusted trout -chicken cordon blue sandwich The cornbread was good, but could've used some salt. The fried green tomatoes were pretty tasty. The general ledger salad wasn't bad, but it was confused-- lots of sweet elements (craisins, candy pecans, citrus) that overpowered dish; goat cheese was delicious, but it was pretty hard to break it up with the tiny little bowls the dish came in. Mixed bag overall. The Pecan-crusted trout was not crusted with anything and flavorless; a meager amount of sauce that was sickly sweet and just didn't fit, flavor-wise; the fish was well cooked though. Chicken Cordon Blue was good, but... weird Caesar salad. Quite possibly the worst Caesar I've had... the sweet croutons feels like this restaurant's version of the imperial system (pointless and bad, but they're doin' it anyways). Ambiance-wise, we didn't appreciate everybody in the restaurant cleaning up & prepping to go so loudly, as we felt like we had to dash out (we had a 7:45 res & they close at 9, so I understand we've somewhat to blame, but there was a point where the plate-clacking of people clearing tables was louder than anything else in the space). Eh, who knows, we might be the a*sholes! Who knows! General Ledger, let me know if we were the bad guys! read more

Caught them adding ten dollars to a tip on credit card statement. I wrote 40 dollars, the math was correct for the total. Very slimy way of running a business. Add to the fact that the food wasn't that great. read more

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

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

Nice atmosphere, jazz music playing softly in the background. Service was friendly and the food was really good. We had the salmon and the pecan crusted trout. It was tasty and well-cooked. And even the side dishes, which sometimes are an afterthought, were really tasty. Mine came with kale salad which did not sound exciting but it was really good and changed my impression of kale. All the food tasted fresh and wholesome, not prefabricated like many restaurants. It's a little pricey but well worth it. 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

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

Great menu. Great service. Great owners/chef. Very generous supporters of our community.

Poor service. Our server was impaired. Food was bland and lacked flavor. Out of many popular items.

5 stars!! We picked this spot for our 1st wedding anniversary. Our waitress Brittany was super attentive and kind, even when we could tell it was busy. The place is loud and lively, and we loved looking at all the decor (it used to be a bank)! I got the shrimp and grits and my husband got the special, a 16 oz ribeye. The potato croquettes were SO good and my shrimp and grits were DELICIOUS. We got a skillet cookie for dessert and it was also amazing. 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

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 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

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!

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
