New American Restaurants in Buford, GA

“We love this place! The menu is thoughtful and purposefully keeps the calorie count limited while not sacrificing flavor. There are also seasonal dishes. Highly recommend the filet, lamb loin and brussel sprouts. The desserts are also delicious (served in a shot glass so you can try more than one!). They also cater to your special occasion in small but very sweet ways. Atmosphere is great, general dinner conversation and not too loud. Service is always impeccable!“

“Aqua Terra never fails to wow! We eat there often, but they really went above and beyond to make our son's rehearsal dinner perfect in every way. We could not have been more pleased with every aspect of the evening. Kelsea coordinated seemlessly with me every step of the way via e-mail. There is a significant food allergy concern with our daughter-in-law and she made sure that had been communicated well in advance to every member of the team. The downstairs room was set up exactly as expected with thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Our two servers were outstanding from the moment we arrived to decorate until the last of us left the building at the end of a wonderful night.The food, of course, was delicious from appetizers to main courses to desserts. Everyone raved about the entire evening! I highly recommend Aqua Terra for any meal you can enjoy there, but truly, they put this special night for the bride and groom over the top!“

“Original menus that change daily, or there about. Every time I visit Georgia I get Rico’s for dinner. Food is always delicious and the flavors are original. Truly the chef’s restaurant! It’s usually a yearly birthday thing also. I appreciate his use of fresh local ingredients and his support of local growers. We can all pay it forward when we start with the best ingredients and intentions. It’s a good thing…..“

“If you’re looking for clean eats or a place that is gluten friendly then this is the place for you! I’ve recently been diagnosed with a gluten sensitivity so I’ve been looking for places that have gluten free options and this was one of them! The food is amazing! Everything tastes so fresh and the ingredients are clearly marked on the menu. The associates were very friendly and the establishment was very clean and welcoming. The prices are very fair for the portion size. I’ve definitely became a regular at this point. The only thing I would recommend is for the associates to point out the reward program because I’ve missed out on so many potential points.“

“10/10 great experience, ask for Alec as a server! Good food, good prices, great service.“

“The Flying Biscuit in Buford was pretty busy for Labor Day weekend; still, our waitress Sarah stayed attentive and professional. She checked in on my friend and I as chatted, kept drinks filled, and managed a large section with care. The food was good; the atmosphere unique and artsy. Even under pressure, the team delivered a smooth experience. I'll be back!“

“My wife and I really enjoyed Sidney's. It's the fine dining restaurant that accompanies the Legacy Lodge at Lake Lanier. The new head Chef came out and introduced himself after dinner and was very kind and passionate about his kitchen. The food was absolutely splendid. My filet was cooked to perfection all the way through. My wife got a seafood dish with Octopus and Shrimp and she didn't leave a bite. A++“

“Celebrated my sons birthday here. Great experience and took my entire team of Concrete Professionals.“

“nteresting 🤨
Since we were only there during the weekdays- it was mostly empty. Our waitress was great, joking and talking to us. The food was okay, not great not bad. The drinks were good! We had a pina colada and the perfect margarita- and it was perfect!
At first, when we were scoping out the place- we were daunted by the 400m of boat docks connecting parking to the restaurant. It was also pretty hot that day.
The day that we walked over to the restaurant it was cloudy and not bad at all. We were surprised they weren’t playing any Buffett music, but the whole Margaritaville Lake Lanier vibe is to just play on the water and chill. I felt relaxed as we left the restaurant (probably due to my two drinks)- so I was cool with it.“

“I really have seen a change in them in past 3 better service and pretties of waitresses of all. And great relax atmosphere definitely will go there more!“
