The collard greens were impeccable; the salt and flavor content was pure perfection. The crisp on the fried chicken was so delicious.

Mr. Barry even gave us some GA peaches and just the entire interaction and hospitality from the moment you walk in makes you feel like family.

I had the fried pork-chops with black-eyed peas and mac and cheese. Decided to try the corn bread instead of the rolls. Washed it all down with some sweet tea. Pork chops were good and seasoned just right. Black eyed peas were a little salty to my taste. The corn bread wasn't tasty at all. The Mac and cheese lacked that home cooked flavor that I hoped for.

Very clean!

As soon as we walked in we were greeted by an employee. She asked if we'd ever been there before. And being the tourists that we were, we told her that we hadn't. She explained that it was a cafeteria style and that we'd order with her and move down the line and pay. OK, cool. So, we ordered with her. But nothing got dished up. The orders went to the back to get made. Not a big deal. Just a little confusing. The other two members of my party ordered first and moved down the line but there was nobody at the register so they found a seat. By the time I made it down someone was there and we managed to get it figured out. The food took a minute but finally came out. There seemed to be some confusion in getting orders delivered but we eventually got our food. Again, not cafeteria style at all. The food was delivered to our table. All in all it was fine. The food was really pretty good. One the pricey side for what you get but that's everything in Helen. I feel like we might not have caught them on their best day. I'd return.

Dottie's Kitchen - I had gravy biscuits with a tomato and about 10 pieces of bacon for breakfast at this amazing Dottie's restaurant in Helen Georgia amazing.

From the meats, the pulled pork was my favorite, followed closely by the ribs. Chicken and sausage were good as well. Also - the hot BBQ and Sweet BBQ sauces were very tasty and unique. But again - what made the food taste even better was the INCREDIBLE ladies who welcomed me in. As I was leaving, a man arrived to help them and he was equally friendly, thanking me profusely for coming in. Great people and great food - the perfect combination!
