Top 15 Affordable Restaurants in Ellijay, GA

Phillip Inski Johnson Very chill spot! The dude managing was very helpful and flexible about whatever we wanted. And Im still flabbergasted at the low prices. I will be a regular from now on.... and they open at 5:00 AM for peeps Rollin in from a club night in Atlanta!

Caitlin Motley We loved our visit here! The juice was fresh and delicious, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. The atmosphere is great - relaxed and fun. My husband especially enjoyed playing Pac-Man and Galaga on the vintage game machine, and I absolutely loved the 15-minute hydromassage! We were visiting Ellijay when we stopped in and only wish we lived closer, as we’d definitely be regulars!

SeaWhy Adventures We had dinner here for the last evening of our vacation and this was certainly the place for a date night. Very cool ambiance, great service and excellent food. Would highly recommend as a date night or special occasion place. A bit pricey but less than other major cities for a date night eatery. Will absolutely eat here again. I removed one star from atmosphere because it was such a popular place, it was actually noisy for my style (desired an intimate dinner for two).

John Mcclinton Just wanted to leave a review of The Shack. I got the build your own Pokémon Bowl with tuna and salmon. It was excellent. All of the ingredients were very fresh and delicious. I will definitely be back.

Star Cook I went this past Saturday and dined in for the first time. The staff was AMAZING and that in turn made the atmosphere even better!! I’m big into people being nice and just being happy to be able to be working and making the best out of their work day. Well I was super pleased to encounter just that. The food was just as good too! Brandy thanks girl for the great service!!!

teresa schum We got some frozen yogurt. Each of us chose a different flavor. It is flat rate price and any toppings are included It is a clean, nice and friendly place. This was a nice and yummy find.

Richard Consistency is king . At pizza king. The best wings in town . Pizza is always amazing. Cannot beat the bogo pizzas. Subs are amazing too! And always clean! Great atmosphere

LAWN JOCKEY Even tho it was on the later end of the Closing. The atmosphere was like a lazy Boie recliner sitting. I had fried pickles and chess sticks. Wife has a deep fried chicken salad. Cant complain.

Chris Borchers My wife and I had our small wedding planned nearby and, being longtime Georgia residents, shared a loving affinity for WaHo. We thought, "How great would it be to have our reception at Waffle House?" I wasnt sure if they would go for it, but I called up the management team here at the Ellijay location and pitched them the idea. They said they were happy to accommodate us and our guests, so we set the date and continued planning. I have to say, the staffs performance and care was far beyond our expectations. The food was wonderful, the staff was enthusiastic and welcoming, the facility was well kept, and the whole experience was a resounding success with our whole party. If youre looking for a nice place with friendly staff to enjoy some of the best breakfast food in the South, I cant recommend these lovely folks enough. They truly make this Waffle House into a Waffle Home. Thanks again, yall! -Chris and Alisia

Debra Murphy I have thoroughly enjoyed getting breakfast here on Saturday mornings but usually eat lunch 2 to 3 days a week..... the food is delicious not overly seasoned and portions are excellent. Staff is extremely friendly. Definitely my go to place for good home country cooking. Wonderful homemade desserts to top off every meal.

SH JA (JASH) We recently visited Ellijay’sLittle Italian Pizza and had an incredible experience! We tried the Fuhgetaboudit meatballs, a BYO deep dish, and the Cousin Vinny pizza. Every dish was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The deep dish was a masterpiece, and the meatballs were a must-try. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel right at home. If youre looking for amazing food and exceptional service, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!

Kev H Pizza was just as good as I remembered it years ago. Very good. The ladies inside were energetic and kind. The only recommendation I would have is to make the exterior a bit more approachable. When we owned a place in Ellijay we would eat here so we knew how good it was. Dlish

Melissa Kirby The staff were welcoming and friendly from the minute we arrived. All amenities were well maintained. Dogs aren’t allowed in the dining hall, but there’s a nice deck right outside where we ate our meals. I will definitely be making another trip there next year. Highly recommended!

Crystal Hammontree My daughter and I stopped for lunch today after going to the apple houses. There was a man and woman working. They were so friendly. We bith got the Grinder pannini. It was so fresh and delicious. The service was quick and friendly. If you want to stop at a mom and pop restaurant I highly recommend this restaurant. Well come back

Ed Mertsching We stopped in here while visiting Ellijay for the day. They have a great beer selection. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Being on the river gives a great vibe and for a relaxing view. We also had lunch here, the menu is small but everything we tried was very good. The wings were some of the best we ever had. The sausage plate was filling and the sausage was cooked perfectly. The entrance is a bit easy to miss, its located between the brewery and Little Caesars. And they are very dog friendly.
