We came here for our anniversary dinner and unfortunately left pretty disappointed with the…read moreservice. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, and the food was genuinely very good. We had the lobster risotto and the pistachio-crusted halibut, and both were excellent. The service, though, really took away from the experience. We had noted that it was our anniversary when making the reservation, so we were a little surprised that it was never acknowledged during the evening. We weren't expecting anything complimentary or special, but even a simple "Happy Anniversary" would have been a nice touch. Our server unfortunately had a noticeable attitude throughout the meal. He was short with us and at times gave the impression that he was bothered that we were there. I don't want to mention him by name because maybe he was simply having a bad evening, but the attitude was incredibly difficult to ignore and it affected the experience. To be fair, everyone else we interacted with was very kind and pleasant, so this seemed isolated to our experience with our server. For a restaurant with such a beautiful property and food at this level, we expected the service to match. We weren't expecting anything extravagant, but for an anniversary dinner, we expected to feel welcomed and taken care of. Unfortunately, we didn't get that. That being said, I would still recommend visiting. The property is absolutely stunning and the food was excellent, so I don't want our experience with one server to take away from what is otherwise a beautiful restaurant. I just felt it was worth mentioning because the service unfortunately made what should have been a really special anniversary dinner feel underwhelming.

The food was ok, a little less fresh than I'd prefer but BEAUTIFUL! Everyone was kind! I enjoyed…read morethe day!

Food was fantastic. I had one of their specials and wife had a sandwich. We had a large group so a 20% gratuity was automatically added which is more than most restaurants add for a large group. A bigger surprise was a "non-cash" adjustment of approximately 5%. Dollar wise it wasn't much but was still a surprise. read more

My wife and I had noticed Edna's several times during drives through north Georgia but they were…read morealways closed. Drove by Saturday, saw they were open, and decided to give it a try. I got chicken (by far the best thing about this meal; it was actually pretty good), pinto beans and collared greens. The sides were served in these tiny cups that probably contained about a half of what one would usually consider a decent portion. The beans were okay (I hit a few that were undercooked to the point of being crunchy. But good grief, the collard greens tasted like someone had squirted bug spray in them. Utterly inedible. My wife tried one bite and instantly regretted it. I put the tiny bowl full of greens on the edge of the table, hoping our server would notice they were untouched and would offer a substitute. Nope. Didn't see him again until the end of the meal, and he had no curiosity about why they were uneaten. My wife got meat loaf, mashed potatoes and green beans. Her observations: green beans out of a can, mashed potatoes meh, meat loaf "edible." She asked the server when he brought our plates if she could have some butter and he pointed to a rack of little containers and said, "There." She didn't have on her glasses and didn't realize those little packets did NOT contain butter but instead some hideous fake butter spread that was old and awful. Turned the okay potatoes inedible. Once again, the server ignored that they were untouched. Service leaves a lot to be desired. The employees seem nice and earnest but don't seem to grasp what service should entail. If they see that a customer hasn't touched some of their meal, they should make some attempt to make it right. At this point I'm sure you, dear reader, have reached the correct conclusion that we will never be back to, nor can we recommend, Edna's.

The staff ensured my drink refills were prompt and I paid at the register, so no wait to check out.

After seating we were immediately greeted by our server who was kind, informative, and attentive. The restaurant was clean, bright, and packed when we arrived. We of course ordered the low country boil and an order of the pickle spears. The pickle spears came out only a few minutes later and were piping hot! We really enjoyed the crispy crust and it of course was good dipped in ranch. The boil was pretty good and came with a bunch of shrimp that were perfectly cooked, potatoes, sausage (very good and juicy!) and an ear of corn. Personally the cocktail sauce was a bit spicy for me but I enjoyed it still. The boil was only $12.99 for a pretty large portion. We will definitely be back again to try other items on the menu!
