Patrick created the perfect Italian dinner, harkening back to his family’s recipes. His marinara sauce was the star of the evening! Grazie!!
The Creag at McLemoreResponded 1 day ago
Thank you for your wonderful words! Patrick is thrilled to know his marinara sauce stole the show—he says it’s his nonna’s secret weapon. We’re delighted you enjoyed an evening of true Italian comfort, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another taste of la dolce vita. Grazie mille!

This was the second time dining at The Creag . Had bad experience on both occasions . Understaffed . Service was so slow and disorganized. 20 minutes to get water . 75 minutes to get food. 15 minutes to get check. No Diet Coke as they ran out . Empty drinks sat on table . They No apologies . Unfortunately there are not many options for food in that general area. Probably will not be back as we do not feel that it will change.

We ordered the veal chop and a filet. Both were overcooked. We should have sent them back; they should have never been served. Suggest that management reads Yes is the Answer, What is the Question authored by Cameron Mitchell.
The Creag at McLemoreResponded on June 8, 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize that your veal chop and filet were overcooked and did not meet your expectations. Our goal is to deliver an exceptional dining experience every time, and we regret that we missed the mark during your visit. Your comments have been shared with our culinary team so we can address this immediately and prevent it from happening again. We also appreciate your suggestion regarding Cameron Mitchell’s "Yes is the Answer, What is the Question"—it’s an excellent reminder of the level of hospitality we strive to provide, and we will be sure to review it as a team.

This was a beautiful place for dinner. The service was great and the food was delicious. We shared the hush puppies, 2 side salads, the ribeye and a skillet cookie. It does get a bit loud with golfers having a drink after a round, but overall a great experience!
The Creag at McLemoreResponded on June 5, 2025
Thank you, Makenzie, for your gracious review! We agree that Chef Patrick Asconi's menu hits the mark. We are pleased that you enjoyed the beautiful expanse of the Georgia landscape and the energetic vibe radiating from each and every one of our patrons. We look forward to serving you again soon!

The food was average and didn’t wow us. They did have a new twist on hush puppies that was interesting with cheese and spicy sauce. The building and surrounding is gorgeous and the waitress was very nice and attentive.
The Creag at McLemoreResponded on May 29, 2025
Thank you for your feedback! We’re always experimenting with new flavors and creative twists—like our hush puppies—to keep things fresh and exciting. We’re glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and service, and we look forward to surprising you with more innovative dishes on your next visit!

We were outside. It was beautiful. The boys played on the putting green while we waited for the food to arrive. Then Our Family did the short course after lunch. Very leisurely.

Thank you so much, Kimberly. We’re grateful you and your family enjoyed the beautiful outdoor space and made the most of your time here. It’s wonderful to hear the boys had fun on the putting green and that you all enjoyed a leisurely day together. We hope to welcome you back for more memories soon!
