In a spur of the moment NYE trip to the ever bustling Lake Oconee area, my partner in crime…read morerecommended this little spot tucked away in a business development. Expecting expensive food with small portions due to the crowd of wine moms and preppy high schoolers seated inside and out, I was greeted with the aromas of fresh coffee, a clean and well organized restaurant and a menu with numerous meals that sounded not only delicious, but affordable too! Still a little skeptical, I ordered the prime rib sandwich with homemade potato chips and my companion had the chicken avocado bacon club or something like that, paired with a nice Samoa coffee. The register worker was patient and nice despite us being there just before close (special NYE hours we thought they'd be open later our bad) and in what felt like mere seconds our sandwiches arrived! For under $10, I'm not sure you could find a fresher, faster, and more delicious meal this side of the Miss'ippi. I'll start with the sandwiches, and furthermore, the bread; not just crispy, but with that great sourdough chew as well! Really an incredible balance between crunchy and chewy. Just the right thickness, and absorbent for my prime rib's Anjou. The meat was well prepared, flavorful, fresh, and tender as could be, and that aforementioned Anjou even tasted like it wasn't made with a mix or packet (though if it was nbd). I can't emphasize enough how fresh it all tasted, truly a delightful meal. The old lady's chicken avocado bacon club (maybe) performed equally well or even better. The bacon was perfectly cooked in my humble opinion, and the chicken was far from dry or tasteless. Even the avocado, not typically a favorite of mine on a sandwich, I thought was a great addition for the bite or two that I stole. Moving on to the sides, which were maybe not as filling as a scoop of mac and cheese or a bowl of chili (which I think we could have ordered had we coughed up a couple more bucks), but were not forgettable either. The salad, like EVERYTHING else, was as fresh as possible, and the vinaigrette was sweet and tangy. My homemade (cool right?) potato chips had a lovely funk almost like an aged cheese along with a great crack and nutty flavor. Not one bite of our lunches made it past 2024, as we spared not one leaf of lettuce or a single chip. Even the coffee (Samoa with some kind of syrup and milk) was delicious, just a tad sweet for my liking but tasting quite legit, not like one you'd get from a gas station cappuccino machine. I would be remiss if I did not mention the people. For 2pm, this place was HOPPING. And every worker there had a smile on their face! Not only this, but they happily brought our food to us outside. I was lucky enough to briefly chat with the owner, Lane, as he casually checked on the tables outside. He came across as authentic, cheerful, and involved, and explained he planned to keep the prices low and the food fresh and fast just as it was in our experience. Genuinely can't recommend this place enough, I will 100% be back if I don't die in a freak accident. Made our day trip to the area worth it. Cafe 44 was the perfect place to have lunch on the beautiful day we were blessed with to finish off the year! Thanks Cafe 44! p.s. I seriously can't emphasize enough how fresh this food was, like they made every portion size one at a time for each meal (though I am fairly certain this is not the case it was that good, think artisan farmers market ingredients). Thinking about eating at Subway now that I've eaten here just about makes me sick!

Da' Ville gives off a classy feel, but stays true to a relaxed atmosphere. The food does the same as well. Everything tasted absolutely amazing and high scale, but again you felt right at home! The owner and staff are super accommodating! My wife and I both had Coach Lunsford's Full Court Press breakfast. The eggs were seasoned perfectly! The menu claims their grits are "creamy", let me tell you they may have been the best, creamiest grits I've ever had! I had bacon and country ham with mine, my wife had bacon and chicken sausage. It was all great! Belgian waffles come with the meal and a compote of (I think) raspberries & strawberries is served on the side. Lord Have Mercy!!!! I could have eaten it alone, but I did like I was supposed to and poured it on the waffle. We will definitely be back! Keep up the Good Work Mr. Herschel & Staff!

Now to the rest of the meal....we tried the following other items: Cheese Grits - EPIC! Best I've ever had!

I saw this place as we were in our way to our worksite. The name caught my eye and it was all I…read morecould think about. We went here for lunch. It's a small place sort of looked like it could have been a fast food restaurant. There was plenty of seating. You could order from the menu or from the hot table (not sure what else to call it). There were two ladies working up front and it took a long time to order. I had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes, green beans, a cornbread muffin and a tea (half sweet/half unsweetened). My colleague had meatloaf, Mac and cheese, green beans, and a biscuit. We each ordered peach cobbler. They serve a lot of food! My colleague said she was going to take some for dinner. Well. . . she ate everything. It must have been really good. I haven't had good fried chicken in a long time and it was delicious. I ate all the green beans and the cornbread. I took the chicken to eat later. The mashed potatoes started out tasting good but then I started to notice an after taste that I didn't like. I didn't eat them. My colleague could not eat the cobbler. I'm not sure what was wrong with it but she tasted it and said she couldn't eat it. I unfortunately never got to eat mine. It sat in the fridge in the hotel and I ended up tossing it before I left. I was a little disappointed. I really was expecting some grits and maybe some greens (not green beans).

I will make a special trip out of the way for good food, and this is a spot that I'd come to every week if I lived closer. The cooks' hands are blessed, because the way I INHALED that food should be a crime in itself. The decor was cute and festive for the occasion, but all I could concentrate on was that FOOD.

We came here for dinner and had made a reservation for 2 people a few weeks prior. It was wide open…read moreat the time, but was pretty full as the time got closer. We decided last minute to join some friends who already had a reservation so they canceled ours and added us to our friends with no issue. It was hard to understand why the reservation system showed little availability as the restaurant was half empty. May be they were short staffed. We were seated in their fully enclosed patio at a low table (there were high tops as well). Our server was very knowledgable about the menu and offered up the specials from memory. We started with the focaccia, which I highly recommend! Everyone at our table thought it was the best they've had. It came with a whipped ricotta and olive tapenade, both of which were excellent! For my entree, I had the carnivora pizza which was perfectly cooked. Thin and slightly crunchy, there were not a ton of toppings that overwhelmed the crust, which was good in this case. The calabrian chiles gave it a nice kick and made the meal for me! My only issue was that they got my leftovers mixed up so when I opened them the next morning, it was not my food!

This restaurant is located in the Ritz-Carlton at Lake Oconee. My colleague and I decided to have…read moredinner inside due to the weather, and we were so glad we chose this place. We started our meal with a few appetizers--meatballs--and initially opted for the focaccia bread. Then we changed our minds and decided to try the pizza since everyone raved about how good it was. Best decision ever. Swapping the focaccia for the pizza was absolutely worth it. pizza crust was perfectly crisp yet light, and we ordered a meat-lovers-style pizza that was absolutely delicious. We ate two slices each and had to send the rest back because we left it on the table--otherwise, we would've eaten the whole thing.At that point we were full, and we could've asked for the check, but where's the fun in that? Instead, we decided to split a pasta dish, which turned out to be the perfect portion. The pasta was delicious, the sauce was amazing, and by then we were officially too full to eat anything else. We finally asked for the check, completely satisfied. Overall, it was an amazing experience. The food was excellent, our server was wonderful, and everything was a solid 10 out of 10.

First let me say that the outward appearance is deceptive. This place on the inside is homey and…read morecute as a button and bigger than it appears from the outside. I enjoyed looking at the different displays sitting around while I waited for my food. The sanitation grade was 100 and the open kitchen was very obvious clean and well kept. Bonnie is the sweetest. I had a lovely time talking to her while she cooked my food. The food... I'll definitely be back. The burger was juicy, fresh and made to order. My hubs got two of the 1/4 lb hotdogs which were actually more like sausages, with chili, mustard and onions. He was pretty happy with them. The fries were also freshly cooked and seasoned perfectly! If there was any negative, those massive hotdogs need a sturdier bun to hold up to the weight and toppings. And I wish there had been a bigger drink selection, but I also understand that with the rising cost of food, small businesses like this feel the hit harder than corporate chains, which is why it's so important to put our money into these mom and pop places so that they'll survive these hard economic times. Overall, I loved the food, loved the service, loved the comfortable atmosphere, and I will absolutely be back. Bonnie's is a hidden gem.
