If you're looking for great Southern comfort food with a million-dollar mountain and lake view,…read moreHawg Wild BBQ & Catfish House in Hiawassee is hard to beat. We stopped in on 1/2 Price Tuesday Catfish Special, and it has to be one of the best dining values anywhere in North Georgia. For just $9.99, each lunch included two perfectly fried catfish fillets and two sides--an incredible deal for the quality and generous portions. The catfish was outstanding. The fillets were light, flaky, and fresh with a perfectly seasoned, crispy coating that wasn't greasy at all. Every bite was delicious. The homemade tartar sauce complemented the fish perfectly. The sides were every bit as impressive. The collard greens had that slow-cooked Southern flavor, the BBQ baked beans were rich and smoky with just the right touch of sweetness, and the Carolina slaw was crisp, refreshing, and balanced the meal nicely. The Texas toast rounded everything out. Our server, Charity, was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome without ever hovering. The restaurant itself has one of the prettiest settings you'll find. Sitting above the lake with panoramic mountain views, it's worth the stop for the scenery alone. Whether you're inside looking out the large windows or enjoying the view from the parking area, it's a beautiful place to relax over lunch. With two lunches, drinks, tax, and a generous tip, our total was only about $34. That's exceptional value these days. If you happen to be in Hiawassee on a Tuesday, don't miss the 1/2 Price Catfish Lunch Special. Between the outstanding catfish, delicious Southern sides, friendly service, unbeatable price, and spectacular views, Hawg Wild BBQ & Catfish House has earned a place on our list of favorite North Georgia restaurants. We'll definitely be back.

All the meats -- and definitely all the sauces -- were simply mediocre... dare I say even a little bland. Even the appetizers (fried pickles and fried green tomatoes) were bland. Another gripe: noticed when we sat down that their seats have fabric over cushions... in a BBQ restaurant... =stained jeans. Didn't think much about it when sitting down, I brush off every seat before sitting, but when I got home there were three distinct grease stains on the back thigh of my fairly new jeans -- look like they probably came from one spot on the chair.

Were told probably not but it couldn't hurt - so we did and glad of it. The place was crowded with most of the dining room taken up by trivia players. We were seated in an overflow room. The greeter was very friendly and server, Casey, was wonderful. I went with the shrimp and grits over the Mahi-Mahi based on server's suggestion. The Mrs had the walnut coated Trout with a bourbon sauce. Both were excellent. One note, the shrimp and grits sauce was more a creamy white sauce as opposed to the red type I'm used to. It was delicious, just different. The place had a really cool bar area and we'd probably go early to have a drink there before dinner next time. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is because it would have been nicer to be in the main dining room.

Not that I haven't, not that I can't--it's just that I prefer my cabin to come with a great restaurant and bar. The Flying Trout Restaurant fits the bill as the food-and-fun hub of the Copperhead Lodge. I expected we'd find ourselves at the bar during our stay; what I didn't expect was one of the best gnocchi dishes I've ever had in my life! The restaurant is large and spacious with a kitschy, rustic feel. The bar sits at the far end of the room and opens onto a big outdoor deck wrapped around the lodge. The outside gets a lot more points than the inside--but then again, nature is always the better designer. I was blown away by the Sweet Potato Gnocchi: an incredible vegetarian dish featuring sweet potato gnocchi, tomatoes, spinach, Vidalia onions, and oyster mushrooms in a brown-butter sauce. Seriously, a great dish. Prices are reasonable for both food and drinks; the restaurant isn't taking advantage of having a captive audience from the lodge. Service at the bar was consistently great. Will definitely return when back in the area!

Chai, the hostess, greeted us as we came in and seated us promptly for our reservation. My partner is gluten free so there was a lot of excitement for us around being able to eat without worries of cross contamination! We ordered the bread board, mac and cheese, and Brussels sprouts as well as the steak special (12 oz steak with fingerling potatoes) alongside the cucumber gimlet and watermelon + coconut mojito to drink. Everything was seasoned to perfection and the focaccia bread was soft in particular. The Brussels sprouts definitely blew our minds and had a rich, savory aioli on them. We were stuffed after all this delicious food but definitely still ended our meal with the peaches and cream crème brûlée which had pieces of peaches inside and was topped with fresh homemade whipped cream. Chai even came and checked in on us during our meal, which I think was so indicative of the wonderful service they provide here. I was so impressed with our experience here and look forward to visiting The Crown again!
