    Ruben on marble rye
    Betsy A.

    Super great idea and delicious food. Pick your sandwich or wrap, and bread. It comes in a box with a pickle, cookie, chips, napkin, and hand-wipe. Drinks are extra.

    Wonderful spot for sandwiches near Lake Chatuge! I had first read about the Pic-A-Nick Basket Deli in an article in Travel & Leisure Magazine about the lake. We had Dottie's Chicken Salad and Kenny's Club sandwiches. The chicken salad was creamy with a hint of sweet pickle relish. The club was delicious, too. All of the ingredients were fresh. Sandwiches were wrapped well and packed in a box which was perfect to put in the coolers for our boat ride that afternoon. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we look forward to coming back!

    Been getting lunch here for more than a year now and we keep going back. The prices have gone up but it is still worth it. The old adage "You get what you pay for" rings true here. I love the QUALITY and ATTENTION TO DETAIL they provide. I've tried about half the items on the menu and have never been disappointed. Favorites are definitely the Johnny's Philly and Gerta's Reuben grilled on marble rye. The portions are just right, not huge but there is plenty to fill you up. Your food comes very neatly wrapped and sealed with cute little deli seals in a lunchbox. Each lunchbox includes your sandwich, a pickle spear, a cookie, napkins, and a wet wipe. Keep in mind this is a TAKEOUT place with no eat in dining room. You can eat outside if you want but I always carry my food home or to the boat. I call ahead, they tell you how long it will take and they are accurate on the timing. They are generally quick but by calling ahead it makes this a 3 minute stop to pick up your order, pay, and be on your way. Sometimes they have a line so calling ahead saves you time. The staff is super friendly. They will customize your order however you like. I've gotten take out dozens of times and have never had a single mix up or bad experience. Like I said earlier they pay attention to the little details and that elevates their food above most other options in the area.

    I tried the fried pickles at Lakeview Tavern in Hiawassee, and honestly, they're exactly what you…read morewant when you're craving good bar food done right. They come out hot and perfectly crispy, with a light, crunchy breading that doesn't overpower the pickle itself. Each bite has that satisfying crunch followed by the tangy dill flavor that fried pickles should have. They aren't greasy, which I really appreciated, and the portion size is generous enough to share (though you might not want to). Paired with the ranch, they hit that perfect salty, savory balance that keeps you reaching for "just one more." Sitting there with the lake nearby and a cold drink in hand made them even better. If you're at Lakeview Tavern and debating on an appetizer, the fried pickles are a no-brainer -- classic, flavorful, and done right.

When visiting new establishment it's best to go with whatever your friend orders since this is their territory. She ordered the ribs and I was able to try one and it was by far one of the best I've had in a long time. I was trying to be good since overloading on food and alcohol. The last few days and opted for the grilled chicken dinner with broccoli. I was very much happy with my meal. I preferred to drink my calories so I did order myself a nice old-fashioned. Ambience was definitely fun and we were all enjoying ourselves and it's just a great atmosphere when you can also interact with the bartenders. I would go back again.

I can imagine you may need to walk a bit depending on how busy the downtown area is, but that would be true for any business in the area. The ordering counter is right in front as you walk in with all seating on the left. Once you place your order they assign you to a table and will bring out your food when ready. We did not realize we entered 15 minutes before they closed. We were originally going to eat there but when we said we would change our order to to-go, they said it was not necessary and we could eat there. They did take down the outside signs soon after we sat down, but we were not the last person entering to place an order. There were also a few others eating inside, so they were more than accommodating to their customers. The Cuban sandwich and NY-style hot dog came out in about five minutes. The Cuban was a bit on the small side but did have a nice amount of ham. The large amount of pickles drowned out the majority of other flavors but the overall the sandwich was good. The NY-style hot dog was a major disappointment. The hot dog itself seemed to have been sitting in the warmer for quite a while as it looked dehydrated and wrinkly. It was chewy with an almost crispy casing. The hot dog did fit the bun but was overwhelmed by the sauerkraut and mustard. Unfortunately, the quality of the food did not live up to the friendliness and accommodation of the staff.
