About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
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."

    Not our normal experience. We always chose LRH for special occasions as we have a 40 minute drive. They were out of ALL the wines by the bottle we selected, no Chardonnay to be had. Finally selected a white that was just ok. Our table for 6 was right in front of the bar which became noisy and crowded. Hard to carry on a conversation. Have never sat in that area and will now know to request other location in advance. However, our server, Tonni, was sweet and accommodating. Probably a newby but A+ for her efforts. The food was all excellent as usual. We will return with above knowledge in hand.

We want to provide our guest with a wine selection that will surly have just what you would expect when dining with us. The new list and the new selections will be available soon. Feel free to speak with the restaurant on your preference of seating. They will arrange request accordingly. With reservations in the peak season, this is a first come first serve process.

    Dining at the lake, Raven Hotel restaurant is truly a magical experience. The charm of the place cannot be denied. We had a wonderful dinner. It would’ve been five stars had the dishes been a little more plentiful. The five shrimp on the shrimp cocktail appetizer were very small. Two small pieces of warm bread (half dollar size ) were served with rosemary butter. Upon request more was cheerfully brought to our table. I ordered the filet with broccolini and mashed potatoes. Broccolini was two small stalks, and less mashed potatoes than I would’ve liked. (This is testament to how delicious they were. I wanted more!) my steak was cooked to perfection. Service with excellent, attentive and pleasant. We will definitely be enjoying this restaurant regularly. You have to try it!

    The quality of food has declined over the last couple of years. For example, the starting "bread serving use to be good breads or even corn muffins, but now it was hard crushed small pieces of bread. My dish was suppose to come with a "remoulade sauce", but it was cocktail sauce. My wife's steak had to be taken back twice to get it to the right temperature. We realize that it is getting more difficult to find good cooks. It may be awhile before we go back.

    Food was not good. Trout seemed like it was warmed up and very dry. Risotto tasted terrible. Pork chop was so dry cutting it was like sawing a tree. The waitress was fabulous. Caesar salad was good. Can’t say we will go back. 100.00 for two meals, i expect it to be better.

    Nice dinner at a rustic hotel. The crab cakes and trout were delicious. I also enjoyed their take on the Wedge salad. Wait staff is young, but very pleasant.

    What a lovely experience and delicious meal! Friends came to visit, and I wanted them to get a taste of how wonderful the Lake Rabun area is. This restaurant (and hotel) is one of the best ways to do that! Everyone raved about the ambiance, our meals, and the wonderful young lady who took care of us. Highly recommend making this beautiful and unique place part of your plans!
