Top 15 Affordable Restaurants in Clarkesville, GA

Robert Gordon The lodge is very rustic. The last few miles of the approach is a gravel-dirt road and the entrance and exit to the parking lot are very steep. Not a good place to bring a low to the ground sports car. The rooms are clean and adequately furnished but quite small and the heating system was not the best for a cold New Years Eve. Now for the best parts. The staff is wonderful and everyone was very helpful. The restaurant is extraordinary (basis for 5-star rating) and offers a first-class dining experience, the best in the region. I enjoyed an exceptional pastry encrusted Brie and a very fresh spinach salad dressed with an outstanding raspberry vinaigrette (the chef shared the recipe with me!). The rack of lamb entree paired with maple sugared sweet potatoes (picture)was equally outstanding. For desert I had peppermint ice cream with chocolate sauce, both prepared fresh on the premises. Portions are generous. There are many other great choices on the menu. The service is not rushed, a very good thing here. My wife shared my enthusiasm for the dining experience. This is a must-go-to place for dinner when in the area. Dining room is romantic and there were several other guests sharing special occasions here. Awesome experience. Will definitely return.

Amanda Jo Venenga I got the lemon pepper basket of 10 deep fried lemon pepper wings. (It comes with celery and ranch not pictured.) and onion rings. Husband ordered the Pub burger and Tater tots . . . Been craving some good lemon pepper wings for a while. Great service. . . Great food, even greater atmosphere...

Lara V I was able to finally check this place out, since they have new ownership with new hours! It didnt disappoint. It can be a bit difficult to find parking during the busy times but there wasnt a wait. It is a quaint little building with great lakeside decor. The service was fine, not spectacular but I have a feeling they will get better as they go. The food was excellent. I ended up having the club sandwich and it was a great portion. They were out of fries (it was around 1pm) so I ended up with onion rings and they were excellent. The rest of the table got Shrimp and Grits, country fried steak and a deconstructed beef stew (it was pork beef, no stew). Overall, Im glad I tried it but I will give it a few weeks to get the kinks worked out before I return. I would definitely recommend trying this place!

Angie Guettner Not much to look at, but they make an awesome pizza! The cheese sticks are the best ever and the Philly cheese steak is fantastic!

Jenn Rickert Got it to go. Ate at the picnic table outside and it was juicy chicken that tasted really good and very much needed. As well as the fries were good too and everything seasoned well

Paul Gunter We had a really good breakfast at MC’s Country Kitchen. The sausage and biscuits were solid, and the service was friendly. The staff also helped us get a phone that slipped behind the booth, which we really appreciated. Nice spot overall

Princess Starrla So I had a minor problem with the store closing early not the store but with an employee closing early. but then the store took care of it and William was so helpful and he really cared about customer satisfaction I would suggest getting the William special when you go there he makes the best sub ever and its not even on the menu which I think it should be. I would recommend this Subway yo anyone. my two favorite employees are William and Raven.

Robert Shumway 10 Star Review !!!! We visited The Dugout, and it absolutely exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, the place had a comfortable, welcoming vibe, and the staff really sealed the deal with how friendly and attentive they were. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and it shows in both the service and the food. I had the Cuban sandwich and it was fantastic—perfectly pressed, great texture, and packed with flavor. You could taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. We also tried the Mushroom Swiss burger, and that thing was *amazing*—juicy, cooked exactly right, and the flavor of the mushrooms with the melted Swiss was on point. But the surprise star was the **2x2 Dugout Burger**. That burger was loaded with flavor, seasoned perfectly, and just flat-out delicious. It’s one of those burgers you keep thinking about afterwards. Everything we ordered came out hot, fresh, and exactly the way it should. It’s rare to find a place where every single item hits the mark, but The Dugout definitely nailed it. We’ll 100% be back the next time we’re in the area—no doubt about that. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food, great service, and a place that just gets it right.!!!!

Marilon Loftin No one knows JUST how AMAZING the food is here because its tied to a bowling alley. Let me just tell you..... Its some of the best food in Habersham County. The menu is as big as Texas. Dont know what to get? Go on a Tuesday and try a specialy cocktail by the best bartender ever. Start with an appetizer of spinach artichoke dip, the Greek salad will hit home. For a meal, hit the burger menu. ALL of them are to die for. Have fun, Eat happy. Much LoVE

Todd McAteer I dont know about the food I went in there to talk to them about business and nobody there spoke a word of English. And so it goes but Im sure the food is really great.

Justin Glenn Fantastic food! This is a new favorite. Especially the shrimp ceviche, a perfectly balanced dish with a fine dining level of quality, but reasonably priced & right here in town. Cant wait to try the rest of the menu. We will definitely be back again soon! ¡Gracias por una comida maravillosa!

Shannon M. Great place, everyone is so nice and I always feel comfortable!

Stephanie Brough Our server was Moi! I have to say he gave EXCELLENT SERVICE! Very attentive! We had the fish tacos, pork belly, taco, and a habanero margarita, double cheeseburger, and painkiller drink. I forgot to take a picture of the food. But we highly recommend this restaurant. The seating is very comfortable. The tables are very roomy atmosphere is excellent.

Anburaja Balamurugan We were looking for somewhere to eat after hiking Tallulah State Park and literally just stumbled upon Tinocos inside the Shell. So glad we did! The folks behind the counter were super friendly. We grabbed some street tacos, and honestly, they were amazing - totally mouth-watering and You really cant beat the price. Such a great find, definitely stop by if youre in the area!

Celia Sorensen Love the food here and it is a beautiful restaurant. Great place for a date night or family outing. Our favorite is the Philly cheesesteak served on great bread with a side of aus juice. Fries are good and hot. We have also enjoyed the salmon pasta, burger, reuben and chicken tenders. However they also have many upscale dinner options that Im sure are delicious. Love the exposed brick and candles on the table. There is also an outdoor patio. The service has always been great.
