First visit and won't be our last! Shannon provided superb service for our anniversary dinner from start to finish! Best Prime Rib we have ever eaten anywhere. Excellent sides of Brussel Sprouts and garlic mashed potatos topped off the meal. Ended the evening meal with a cinnamon apple dessert that was to die for. The perfect choice to celebrate our special day. Great ambiance, food, and service. Don't pass this restaurant up if in the Habersham County area.

About the restaurant
In the mountains of North Georgia the Lake Rabun Hotel & Restaurant has been welcoming guests since 1922. Restored in 2008, the hotel and restaurant offer the best of rustic elegance. From the antique heart pine walls to the locust beams on our deck, expect unique, local craftsmanship. The decor is rich with period antiques, hand-woven rugs, and local artwork.

It features a creatively prepared and presented Contemporary American menu with a Southern twist in the farm to table tradition. Fresh produce locally grown is hand selected and prepared by our Chef de Cuisine, whose entrees respect the natural flavors of high quality, humanely raised and locally harvested food. His kitchen produces cuisines from many regions including Classical French, Southern USA, and Mediterranean. Many guests describe the food at the Lake Rabun Hotel as "the best in the mountains."
