It was a Tuesday night, which turned out to be wing night with wings that were a reasonable price. I also went for the fish and chips, which were fair. The wings were quite tasty, and they have a decent variety of sauce flavors to choose from which is a good thing. I also went for the street corn, which was excellent. We were sitting out on the porch, and the weather was good. Noise was kept to a minimum so we were able to talk without having to shout, which I consider to always be a good thing. The food was good, our wait staff were decent, and we were very happy with our experience. If we are in the area again, we would certainly return.

Took a few more minutes to place our order of coffee, pancakes, sausage, and a gravy biscuit. The place was full but people were coming and going quickly. It's a diner, right? Food came out fairly fast. Megan loved her pancakes. Said they were perfect for what she wanted right now. My gravy biscuit was a bit bland but I guess that's the style for a gravy biscuit. It would have improved with a couple sausage patties. The coffee was typical diner coffee. Breakfast was only $20 which I guess today is not a bad price for decent food and quick service of food served to you.

We sat outside and my friend went in to order for us. She ordered the "two egg" breakfast and I had the hash brown bowl with sausage and biscuit. The server who helped us was very kind and friendly and professional and even brought our food outside to us and my friend tipped her very well for being so nice. Problem is we got back to the condo and her "two egg breakfast" had NO EGGS, and my hash brown bowl had NO HASHBROWNS! Unsatisfactory indeed. For you all coming to Helen, take the drive to the Huddle House down the road in Cleveland, much better location and worth the drive.

When it comes to spots on the main drag in Helen, I like this one slightly more than the rest…read more What really made it stand out was it's set up inside with plenty of TVs, all of which had various college sports on. We ended up seeking it out b/c we wanted to watch college football. They have solid indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is right by the river. On the indoor side you have a very small bar but plenty of TVs around the establishment. The food is fine but nothing terribly special. But they do have a fair amount of beer on tap. The overall experience is solid. We were able to watch football, eat and drink beer. I suspect I will end up back here the next time I visit Helen. I'd suggest swinging by if you get the chance.

The burger was so dry it could have been made of dust. I ate about half of it, because I'm a man, and that's what we do...maybe it's dry on the outside, maybe the next bite is acceptable...nope not this time. My girlfriend had the Ruben. Tasted like nothing. You'd think you can't mess up a Reuben. Well, I was wrong. Meat tastes like newspaper. Also got some jalapenos poppers. Also gross. I've had frozen ones that are better. Only edible things were the pickle and ranch dressing. It's a shame because the ambience is SICK. The staff seemed to know it was bad. Don't go here

The food was delicious and hit the spot. My server was fantastic and didn't leave me hanging long after my meal. I appreciate a quick check delivery, especially having a pup out in the heat. They have parking across the street but you can't stay there to walk around town. This a nice spot to go for a meal.

This was my fourth time here, and I always bring someone new and everyone always leaves impressed. We ordered the Schweinehaxe, a traditional German dish, and it was absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. It's definitely something I always go for when I visit because it's a must-try here. One of my friends was seriously impressed. We also had the mashed potatoes, which were very tasty, and one of my friends ordered the meatloaf and loved it. Overall, the food is very authentic, with plenty of traditional German options to choose from. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. There was even live music, which made the experience even better. Another highlight is the view, the restaurant sits right by the river, which makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place. It's definitely one of those spots you keep coming back to and want to bring new people to.

They have a bar food menu consisting of fried foods that you would usually see on a late night menu. Nothing to write home about but great if you need something to soak up the alcohol. Leave your car at home and walk here or get a DD because the police are posted up in front looking for people who are walking back to their car and The Ubers are far and few between here.

The food almost tastes freezer burned and the burger I had felt fake and dense. The only food that felt edible were the onion rings. I would come for drinks only but there are so many cool bars in Helen I probably won't be back. Points to the extremely nice and bubbly waitress. She took great care of us and made us feel welcome. If you're looking for quick drinks with an outdoor setting that has great people watching than this would be a fun place to start the night or after an extremely drunken night where the taste of food doesn't matter much.
