The trout…read moresandwich with fries was a standout, and the fried green tomato appetizer paired nicely with the gastrique, greens, and spicy pimento cheese. The burger and tater tots were also very good. The menu offers a wide variety of specialty burgers with plenty of customization options, including grass-fed beef for a small upcharge. Fair prices for the quality and quantity of food--definitely left in a food coma. Service: Service was efficient and the food came out well-prepared. No major issues during the visit. Atmosphere: Located in downtown Dahlonega, making it easy to explore nearby shops and dessert spots before or after your meal. The tavern has a darker, eclectic vibe with artwork, punk music, and a slightly edgy feel. The décor fits the restaurant's origins and personality, though the lighting--including in the restrooms--is quite dim. Parking downtown can be somewhat difficult during busy times.

First off thank you to our server Mattie for taking great care of us throughout our dinning experience. We started off our meal with the Mac and Cheese bites Mattie suggested and they were delicious. Then we moved on to our main courses. I went with the All American Chili Burger and fries that were very good. My better half went for the turkey burger and pasta salad enjoying every bite. We highly recommend you stop in and give this hidden gem a try. No pun intended it was a mining town at one time. The atmosphere was a great local vibe. We will be back.

Don't skip dessert: the peanut butter pie !!

When you walk in it's huge and there's plenty of space on the inside and the outside. There are TVs here so you can actually watch a game while you're drinking. The staff was super cool and very very friendly so I appreciate that they do everything in house because it's a distillery but they have some very creative drinks. If you want to go and sit outside, that's a good spot to be in because there's plenty of space out there. They have a patio out there as well that is very easy to chill at. Overall I don't really have any complaints. The menu isn't huge but it's enough to get you over. If you're passing it, I would definitely say it'd be a good time to try.

Make sure to stop by and grab the Hazy as well. Oh, and the Farmers Daughter is must try as well. We ended bringing a Crowler of it home back to Florida with us. Scott and Amy Oldsmar, FL

They always seem to have some event happening which keeps things interesting. (Last time we went they had fresh pizzas being made) Whenever we have guests in town, we bring them here! Georgias best.

The salad was fresh and generous. Great combination of romaine and olives. The dressing was homemade and perfect for the salad combination. The pizza was good but Not sure about the pepperoni . It was harsh not picante as it should be. The coffee espresso excellent BUT $14 for a very average almond croissant with very little almond , no not good. And I do believe it was frozen and then heated up. The place is beautiful, go for the place not the good. You will go back. We did. No will go again. Had to be worth the 1.5 hr drive. It was.

The atmosphere inside doesn't remind me of an upscale winery, tables were cramped and tons of TVs were on showing sports. Food was good though!! The calamari was delicious and I loved the side sauces it came with. The mozzarella delight is amazing for mozzarella stick lovers because of the amount of cheese and perfect breading with sea salt on top. The vodka sauce pizza was okay, the prosciutto made it pretty salty but I really liked the pesto drizzled on top. The pappardelle was also good. The apple crisp skillet was mid. Wish the apples were cut up into smaller, easier to eat pieces. Our server forgot we moved inside and we saw our food sitting at the table outside and had to bring it in ourselves. Overall: pretty location and good food, service and interior aren't up to par if you're looking for a classy, high-end dinner experience I would pick somewhere else.

So glad it did!! This is in the public shopping center. I guess is what they call it a little bit south of town and it really is a higher end Mexican restaurant with excellent decor and super clean and a great staff. There was just two of us that we went and sat at the bar, which was empty, cause it was relatively early in the afternoon around 5 o'clock, but what a gorgeous bar! Ashley was our bartender. I think she was relatively new, but got us a margarita and I actually went for a beer after I got there and we looked at the menu to decide what we wanted to eat. I ordered some chicken tacos and my buddy ordered fajitas and understanding the price points are about five bucks more than any corner Mexican restaurant, these portions were massive!
