Wow... just outside of Chattanooga on Lookout Mountain is a hidden gem! Fine dining in a casual setting done right! We started off with Old Fashioneds and Margaritas, both were on point! For appetizers, we had the Spicy Feta Dip with warm, soft bread, and Fried Mushrooms topped with White Truffle Oil and served with Horseradish Sauce. Absolutely amazing!!!! For my entrée, I went with their signature dish... the Slash and Burn Catfish. WOW... crazy good! Great flavor and fried to perfection. You actually use a spoon to scrape the meat off the fish. This is a must-have dish! Others in our group that weren't feeling as adventurous enjoyed the Chicken Piccata, Grilled Shrimp, Sautéed Triggerfish, and steak, all were excellent. Pro tip: Save room for dessert!! We got the Strawberry Shortcake, which is a MUST HAVE, and the Amaretto Brownie, which was pretty great too! The service was amazing and very attentive throughout the meal. So, if you live in the Chattanooga area or are just visiting, what are you waiting for? This is a must-try place! read more

My husband and I had the best meal at Canyon Grill! We started off in the bar with a drink called the "Naked in Manhattan" -- smooth, balanced, and absolutely delicious. From there, we moved to our table and ordered two appetizers: the Burrata with tomatoes and the Rajas. Both were so fresh and flavorful -- the perfect way to start our meal. For our main courses, we enjoyed the filet with grilled shrimp (cooked to perfection!) and the fried shrimp, which were lightly battered and perfectly crisp. The grilled broccoli and fried okra were both fresh, hot, and full of flavor -- true standouts on their own. To top it all off, we finished with the amaretto brownie -- it had a crisp outer layer, a warm, rich chocolatey center, and was beautifully paired with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Just divine! A special shoutout to Michael, our bartender, who sent us glasses of port as an aperitif to enjoy with dessert -- such a thoughtful and classy touch. The service, food, and atmosphere were all exceptional. Even though it's an hour drive from where we live, this will absolutely become one of our regular spots. Highly recommend -- everything was amazing! read more

Food and service was great! Highly recommend it. The desert brownie with ice cream was very delicious.

Excellent meal! Hadn't been there in a decade. So glad this restaurant is still thriving. Food was as good as I remembered. My only note: drop the .99 prices on the menu; I ordered a CAB Dry Age Ribeye for $60.99 (is the 99 cents an inside joke?). The Slash and Burn Catfish is a signature dish, shareable as an extra in the middle of the table. Extraordinary. One last thing: don't skip the fried okra. No kidding. Really wonderful. read more

Always Great food and service! Michael has been an excellent addition to the staff. Michael is primarily in charge of the bar.

Canyon River Grill NEVER disappoints!!! Excellent Food every time! This time we tried their Burgers and we gave them an A++. Their fried Chicken is delicious also along with their steak and the steak salad. Oyster appetizer was delicious the sauce they give along with it makes it the best. A Must Try, if you want a delicious meal! read more

We enjoyed a Thursday night dinner . We drove from Mentone The food was delicious. I had the picacata chicken with a salad. My husband had the almond honey chicken with okra and a salad. The waitress was very attentive. We did have reservations and I think it is advisable. read more

I was surprised at how large and airy this restaurant is, with lots of windows. The service was amazing. Our waitress said she was just 18 but she knew the menu, was cheerful and friendly, kept all our orders and check straight in a group of 12. The prices range from reasonable chicken and pasta dishes to expensive steaks. My wife had the honey, pecan chicken and I don't know where they buy their birds but that was the tenderest chicken breast I've ever had. We also had the grilled grouper and it was outstanding. The green beans were a little oily for my wife but they were seasoned well and cooked to perfection. Everyone else in our group definitely enjoyed their meal. read more

This has to be the best food in this area. No questions asked. The service was good, especially since it was very busy and we didn't have a reservation but were sat within 15 minutes. And the decor and look of the place is top notch. This could easily be a restaurant you'd see in a nice area of Atlanta, but it's just in the middle of nowhere north ga! read more

We spent our last night camping at Cloudland Canyon and decided to visit Canyon Grill. Be prepared for a treat! We ordered the fried clam strips as an appetizer then I ordered the grilled shrimp with garlic mashed potatoes and my hubby ordered the NY steak strip with garlic mashed potatoes. To complete the meal we ordered the tiramisu. The restaurant recently went through a renovation and the staff were so friendly. We will definitely be back the next time we visit Trenton, GA! I totally forgot to take pictures of our entrees but hope you enjoy the appetizer and dessert pictures. read more

Canyon Grill is one of the most special restaurants in the northwest Georgia mountains. It is beautiful! Their chef receives fresh seafood daily from the coast. Their steaks are wonderful! And they have an incredibly wonderful "catfish" dish, which is not to be missed! Their vegetables are roasted & have that caramalized finish, which taste so good! You may brown bag your own vino! This is always such a great idea! Take an EXTRA bottle, to linger around the table when finished eating! You will certainly thank me, following dining here! People go to the Canyon Grill from Atlanta, Birmingham & Chattanooga. Each is an easy & beautiful drive. read more

We are vacationing in Cloudland Canyon and just happened to see that Canyon Grill was close by so we decided to give it a try. We are glad we did! The food, ambiance and service were wonderful! My husband ordered a steak and said it was a delicious smoky flavor. I ordered the Strawberry salad with grilled chicken and it was so good! I also ordered the coconut cake, so moist and savory! One of the best I've ever had. The inside of Canyon was very nice but we were still able to wear casual clothing and fit right in. Definitely make the drive out... it's worth it. Our server Brenda was the best! She had like 5 tables and we never waited for anything... she was prompt and on it. You could tell she enjoyed her job! read more

This is an awesome restaurant. There were 4 of us, everyone enjoyed their meal!! Emma was our server and she was fantastic and made several great recommendations. I had the ground mignon, seasoned like a steak, side I chose was baby Lima beans. Incredible meal. Another had the chicken piccata, I was able to get a teensy bite of deliciousness, his side salad side was so crisp and pretty! Another had pork loin and garlic mashed, yumm!! Each couple got our own coconut cake which was like a coconut tres leches with strawberry, incredibly incredible! I'll remember this experience very fondly! read more

We were staying at a nearby resort and found this place on Yelp. Might not look like a fancy restaurant from the outside, but the parking lot is the give away - packed every night. Husband had the catfish the first time we visited. Excellent! Ashton was our server and did an excellent job. We came back two nights later and had Ally as our server. Another fantastic meal and service. (Rosemary pork and the ribeye). Had the mushroom appetizer and it was like none we've had before - real, fresh mushrooms, crispy, and not greasy. Awesome! And don't miss the coconut cake. Yum! read more

It's ALL good! A touch of class way back in the woods. Grilled okra is especially good.

We were staying at McLemore and wanted to try this out. It did not disappoint. Everything was very fresh from the house salad, bread basket and entrees. The bread and butter is crazy good- don't skip it!!! The bread is light, airy and crunchy with soft whipped butter on the side. I had the chicken piccata, green beans and crispy potatoes- delicious and a really nice portion size. My husband had the fried shrimp which were great with a light coating. The key lime dessert was also worth it! Even tho we are only in town for a few days we are going back for dinner again tonight! Don't miss this if you're up here! read more

We celebrated my daughter's birthday here - our first visit. Please note that it's BYOB, so if you want a glass of wine to complement your meal, bring it!

This was a very unexpected pleasure our server was attentive and the food was excellent. Strongly recommend!

Don't let the exterior fool you, this place is truly amazing. We went because it was 6 mins from Cloudland Canyon SP and am so happy we did! The garlic rosemary sauce of the pork tenderloin was HEAVENLY and the chicken Piccata was SO tender and delicious. My kids loved the chicken tenders and I appreciated that they were homemade! It's Dress casual, but we went in jeans and t-shirts as we were camping nearby. No one made us feel out of place, though. The Amaretto brownie and tiramisu were incredible. This will be part of our regular rotation when we're in the area again. read more

From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were met with warm smiles and genuine hospitality, setting the tone for an exceptional dining experience. The ambiance was inviting, and the service was impeccable from start to finish. The cuisine was nothing short of extraordinary. Though the prices are on the higher side, the quality and attention to detail in every dish made it well worth the indulgence. My wife and I chose this venue to celebrate our 20th anniversary, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The filet mignon, in particular, was the finest I've ever tasted--a true culinary masterpiece. read more

I was excited to try this place as the reviews were so favorable. I'll start with the good points. It's a beautiful drive to the location. The non alcoholic tea and cider although pricey for amount was delicious. The mash potatoes were yummy. The service was kind and atmosphere was cozy and sweet. The main courses were just average. We had Chicken piccata which was just ok, the salmon was cold and bland even after asking to rewarm was still cold, the salsa to put on it was interesting. The okra had no taste whatsoever. Just very underwhelming for the rave and price. We really wanted to like. Maybe it was just an off night. The place was very busy, so lots of people appeared to be enjoying themselves. Maybe it was just the items we picked. But we felt was average. read more

Great place! Wonderful service. I had the ground mignon but it was a bit salty but pretty good. Had their coconut cake for dessert and it was fantastic! read more

Great atmosphere, delicious food! Easy to make reservations online. Grilled chicken is always fantastic.

Happy to have a nice meal with good wait staff while we were camping. Wish they had one or two more vegetarian options, but otherwise the food was good and the desserts were great. read more

Our party of five made reservations well in advance for 5:30 pm on 2/27/21. They did a great job with the CDC's guidelines. The fried shrimp was delicious as was the chicken piccata. The grilled vegetables were tasty as was the fish of the day which was a sea bass from Hawaii. The house salad was my favorite over the arugula salad. I didn't care for the Nueskes bacon on the arugula salad. I would definitely recommend to a friend and definitely recommend making reservations. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot. read more

We've eaten at Canyon Grill numerous times over the last 10-15 years. It's always been a great experience. We went today to celebrate our July birthdays and had a wonderful meal. Fried shrimp, filet mignon, 4 cheese pasta, crispy potatoes, and finished with the home made key lime pie!!! I almost ordered the slash/burn catfish which I've had before and really liked but I couldn't pass up the Tuesday shrimp special. Service was excellent as always. Another special dining experience! Thank you, Canyon Grill! read more

If you're going to rising phone Georgia you must be going to the canyon grill because there really is nothing else there except for a cop who likes to give tickets if you're going over 55. But once you get inside you'll fall in love with the people that work there and the food that they deliver. We're from New Orleans and very picky about our seafood but my fried and grill shrimp or as good as anything I've ever had in the Crescent city and my wife's salmon well let's just say she thought it was the second best salmon she's ever had. read more

After dining here, one has to wonder why is this fantastic restaurant not in Chattanooga. Then one steps back and counts their blessings that it's here! What a great experience! While our view of lookout mountain was dampened by fog, Canyon Grill was the highlight! Everyone welcomed us warmly... tables are spread out for those of us a little Covid sensitive. Angela was amazing, fun, and cheerful! Yes...don't miss the Rojas appetizer! I had New York strip and that hickory flavor was through and through! The grilled shrimp was amazing. But...do NOT leave without trying the amazing coconut cake! What a gem! If it's not a special occasion: fake it! read more
