    Lobster ravioli with caviar

    Fabulous food and impeccable service! Chef went above and beyond to accommodate child with celiac. Wait staff was delightful.

    Linguine Fra Diavolo with lobster - so good!

    Beautiful dinner spot at the Ritz! There's indoor seating, bar seating and outdoor seating in their heated patio that overlooks the lake. Great variety of Italian dishes. The concierge told us they didn't have any reservations for the evening but we went to the restaurant around 7pm and they had plenty of tables open so definitely stop in even if you can't get a reservation! Great for breakfast too - $35 dollar buffet or you can order specific entrees off the menu.

    Such a fun and delicious restaurant- we came here for breakfast and the portions were way larger than we expected. The service was very kind and they were super knowledgeable about the food. The tea and coffee was also delicious. I got the uova in purgatorio, and it was a great blend of tomato and egg goodness! Would highly recommend.

    Food was really great, quality and quantity was great considering it being located at the Ritz. Outdoor seating was well covered and ventilated.

    Service is suuuper slow. We couldn't get a reservation until 8:15 and yet there was still a more than 10 minute wait to get seated. Plenty of open tables I guess they just aren't staffed properly. After being seated, we promptly placed our orders, but did not get our main dishes until about 9:30 pm, at which point my 4 year old had already fallen asleep. Fortunately appetizers had arrived a little past 9, so she had eaten some of that. The servers were kind, and our waitress Natalie brought my older child - 7 years old, a blanket while she was waiting for the food to arrive. The food was all really delicious! I'm glad it was freshly prepared, but it was a long wait late at night when we were hungry. They did have kids' menus and perhaps those items would have arrived faster, but we like our kids to have more variety in their food. All our dishes are great: - pulpo (grilled octopus; tender, flavorful) - fritto misto (fried calamari, shrimp, and zucchini - even the kids loved it) - riggatoni bolognese (family favorite between my husband, daughter, and me) - linguini with lobster (I loved it, but it was a little spicy for my daughter) My pear cocktail was also really delicious and a good portion that lasted me the 1 hour wait to appetizers. I recommend getting an earlier reservation here and being prepared for a lengthy and relaxing dinner.

    Really nice upscale Italian. Ambience and service were great. Prices are on high side but not surprising for a Ritz property. Wonderful outside covered patio. Will likely go back.

    You'll find a troublesome menu here. This newly revised version of the old Georgia's restaurant at the Ritz Carlton at Reynolds Plantation is now Italian. About the menu: first, the menu does not even say to the name of the restaurant, not on the front nor the back. Odd? Then, on the breakfast menu, most people will find quite a lot of words that they don't know: stracchino, padron, tramezzino, piadina, shirred eggs, bresaola and more. I would highly suggest to the manager that underneath the Italian, or in parentheses beside it, they explain every last one of these words to their clientele. Further, I have taken three or four semesters of college Italian, and I still did not know at least half of these words. Imagine the average American? You will have to ask so many questions about the menu. And then there is the issue that a couple of things are not even on the menu! Where is the juice? You don't have orange juice or grapefruit juice on your breakfast menu? They do, but it's not listed. So you don't know that they have it, you don't know the price. And then they offer an omelette, but it's not on the menu! I really don't think they are helping themselves with their menu. The egg white frittata I did order was tasty, but I guess I was a little bit surprised by the fact that it said it came with parmigiano, and apparently what that meant was a little sprinkle of same. You could barely see it. The breakfast buffet is $35.

    In a spur of the moment NYE trip to the ever bustling Lake Oconee area, my partner in crime…read morerecommended this little spot tucked away in a business development. Expecting expensive food with small portions due to the crowd of wine moms and preppy high schoolers seated inside and out, I was greeted with the aromas of fresh coffee, a clean and well organized restaurant and a menu with numerous meals that sounded not only delicious, but affordable too! Still a little skeptical, I ordered the prime rib sandwich with homemade potato chips and my companion had the chicken avocado bacon club or something like that, paired with a nice Samoa coffee. The register worker was patient and nice despite us being there just before close (special NYE hours we thought they'd be open later our bad) and in what felt like mere seconds our sandwiches arrived! For under $10, I'm not sure you could find a fresher, faster, and more delicious meal this side of the Miss'ippi. I'll start with the sandwiches, and furthermore, the bread; not just crispy, but with that great sourdough chew as well! Really an incredible balance between crunchy and chewy. Just the right thickness, and absorbent for my prime rib's Anjou. The meat was well prepared, flavorful, fresh, and tender as could be, and that aforementioned Anjou even tasted like it wasn't made with a mix or packet (though if it was nbd). I can't emphasize enough how fresh it all tasted, truly a delightful meal. The old lady's chicken avocado bacon club (maybe) performed equally well or even better. The bacon was perfectly cooked in my humble opinion, and the chicken was far from dry or tasteless. Even the avocado, not typically a favorite of mine on a sandwich, I thought was a great addition for the bite or two that I stole. Moving on to the sides, which were maybe not as filling as a scoop of mac and cheese or a bowl of chili (which I think we could have ordered had we coughed up a couple more bucks), but were not forgettable either. The salad, like EVERYTHING else, was as fresh as possible, and the vinaigrette was sweet and tangy. My homemade (cool right?) potato chips had a lovely funk almost like an aged cheese along with a great crack and nutty flavor. Not one bite of our lunches made it past 2024, as we spared not one leaf of lettuce or a single chip. Even the coffee (Samoa with some kind of syrup and milk) was delicious, just a tad sweet for my liking but tasting quite legit, not like one you'd get from a gas station cappuccino machine. I would be remiss if I did not mention the people. For 2pm, this place was HOPPING. And every worker there had a smile on their face! Not only this, but they happily brought our food to us outside. I was lucky enough to briefly chat with the owner, Lane, as he casually checked on the tables outside. He came across as authentic, cheerful, and involved, and explained he planned to keep the prices low and the food fresh and fast just as it was in our experience. Genuinely can't recommend this place enough, I will 100% be back if I don't die in a freak accident. Made our day trip to the area worth it. Cafe 44 was the perfect place to have lunch on the beautiful day we were blessed with to finish off the year! Thanks Cafe 44! p.s. I seriously can't emphasize enough how fresh this food was, like they made every portion size one at a time for each meal (though I am fairly certain this is not the case it was that good, think artisan farmers market ingredients). Thinking about eating at Subway now that I've eaten here just about makes me sick!

    I really liked the tomato basil soup and the blackened chicken wrap. The avocado was perfect. My bf…read moresad his california club wasn't great because the chicken was a little cold and he didn't like the "canned chicken" texture. Otherwise though very pleasant. Very busy on Saturdays.

Each time I stopped in, the atmosphere was energetic, casual, and welcoming. I felt completely comfortable dining alone. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without constantly interrupting my meal. I was especially impressed by how involved the management was. The general manager actively worked the room, assisted the staff, and took time to speak with guests instead of remaining behind the scenes. The chicken Parmesan was excellent. The breaded chicken was crisp outside but still tender and juicy, with a savory marinara and just enough melted cheese. The pasta was cooked properly, and the accompanying garlic bread was crunchy around the edges while remaining soft inside. The generous serving provided plenty of leftovers. The strawberry basil margarita was refreshing and well balanced, with enough fruit flavor to be interesting without becoming overly sweet. For dessert, the peanut butter pie had a wonderfully smooth, creamy texture and a rich flavor that never felt excessive. The onion ring tower is also worth ordering, especially for a group. The rings are thick, crispy, well seasoned, and clearly prepared fresh. It would be far too much for most solo diners, so plan to share. Although the restaurant is not directly on the waterfront, the patio and some tables offer views of Lake Oconee. There is ample free parking, and the regular live music and special events add to the lively local atmosphere. Lake Oconee Bistro has earned a place on my list whenever I return to the area.
