Hootenanny’s at the Yard—Craft Barbecue Restaurant in Downtown Brunswick, Georgia - (Near Brunswick, GA)

Andrés Fiore We absolutely loved the vibe at Black Sheep. We went without a reservation and they still treated us amazingly well — super friendly and welcoming staff. The weather was perfect, so we chose to sit outside, and it turned out to be the best decision. The burger I ordered was absolutely incredible — juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. We also got an appetizer (can’t remember the name, but it was delicious). They had a happy hour, so we tried a couple of Bloody Marys, and they were seriously some of the best I’ve ever had. The whole experience was just perfect — great food, great drinks, and a relaxed, classy atmosphere. Definitely one of the must-visit spots in Blue Ridge!

Kristie Ang If you’re craving seafood and bold Cajun flavors in Georgia, this place should be at the top of your list. Everything is cooked to perfection. The grilled octopus comes out perfectly charred and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The crawfish étouffée is loaded with tender crawfish in a rich, deeply seasoned sauce full of that classic Louisiana spice. And the roasted oysters are just downright addictive. A fantastic spot for anyone who loves coastal Southern cooking done right. They’re almost always packed, so booking a reservation is your best bet if you want to avoid a long wait. Even with the crowds, the service stays impressively quick and efficient, making the whole experience seamless.

Madison Crutchfield Finally decided to try this place after hearing about it for months, and I am so glad I did! The food was amazing and service was right there with it. Joe took great care of us!! We had the crab cake appetizer, petite filet, and NY strip. He recommended his favorite sauce (delicious!!) and answered every question we had. He was super friendly and attentive without being overbearing. He added to our already awesome experience and we will definitely be back!

DraLisa Smart Came her for brunch after church. My absolute favorite thing was the pre-meal snacks! Such a clever and elevated departure to the standard table bread and butter. Im a foodie who loves variety and having 4 snacks to nibble on before my meal was phenomenal. We ordered the pancake for the table and it was so so good. Fluffy with crispy edges. Not too sweet either. Its memorable and Id order it again. The entree items all looked delicious and it was hard to choose but I settled on the spaghetti and meatballs. I figured itd make for good leftovers for dinner. I will preface my opinion that I usually prefer creamed based sauce over tomato based for pastas. With that context, this entree was okay. The pasta was cooked slightly past al dente. You could tell all of the ingredients were fresh, which I appreciated. The two meatballs were huge and reminded me of meatloaf, in taste and texture. Excited to go back and try their cream based pastas. I can always value Italian restaurants that makes their own pasta.

Betsy Gilbert We used the upstairs private dining room for our son’s rehearsal dinner. The food was absolutely amazing! Everyone raved about it! Mike, the event manager, was kind, helpful and organized! Gracie was his helper for the evening and they both did an awesome job keeping us served. The atmosphere was perfect with exposed bricks and hardwood floors.

Shalagh Hunter I was a little nervous about trying Yebo but I’m so glad I did. The entire experience was excellent! The courtyard was beautiful, the service was impeccable, and the food was just the icing on the cake! My server talked me into trying the crepes which were amazing and very filling for an appetizer. The mussels appetizers were just as delish! I got the scallop entree which was fantastic even when I warmed the leftovers later. I highly recommend giving this spot a try.
