Last Resort Grill - (Near Athens, GA)

5 /5 Soeleos Music: Weve never been to Athens before so we decided to walk the town. We noticed a restaurant, just about opening time, with a line of people. We investigated and it turned out to be a jewel. Very nice atmosphere, signature dishes are a little spendy (Caramelized Scallops =$45), but otherwise ok. Also (most important) the desert case has quite a variety of cakes and cheesecake, we enjoyed German Chocolate cake. Overall, the food was excellent, check the photos, the fish is a huge piece of Trout, and the other is the pasta. Highly recommended.

2 /5 Erin Rifkin: The food is just ok and it’s very expensive for being just ok. Fried green tomatoes were flavorless, scallops were fishy and grits watery, the salmon was decent and so were the crab cakes and the short rib but it wasn’t seasoned probably at all. In fact, we had to salt every single dish we got and that is not something I do normally. None of the foot came out hot either. Pathetic really I don’t know why people love this place. It’s insanely loud inside and the owner was there with his friends who were super obnoxious. They were in the middle of the restaurant with tons of people in and out talking to them. His friend was standing up and yelling constantly. Absolutely would not come back. The entire group I was with agreed.

5 /5 Allison Damron: Came here to try their famous White Chocolate Cheesecake and I can say it was definitely worth it! We also tried their Kentucky Bourbon layered cake and it was also delicious. Our server, GEORGIA, was phenomenal and could not have been any kinder or more accommodating. MVS (Most Valuable Server) without a doubt!

5 /5 Krista Korngold: Highly recommend. Had a great experience with my dad and stepmom. The food was excellent. I got the short rib and they got the hangar steak. Our waitress was awesome. She had great suggestions, was very friendly, and checked in often for refills which I always like. The atmosphere is nice. We sat in a covered patio and there was an electric fireplace to keep it warm.

5 /5 Elaine C: We were visiting from out of town and the concierge at the hotel recommended Last Resort Grill. I can honestly say I cant think of a negative thing to say. Our waiter, Aaron, was beyond fabulous, we are pretty sure he was reading our minds. There wasnt a bite of food on the table we didnt enjoy. My partner ordered the hanger steak and it was spot on cooked to order. The desserts were off the chain! They dont take reservations because they are worth the wait. Just enjoy a cocktail while you are waiting, they have an indoor and outdoor bar. If we are back in the area we will definitely return!
