I just wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the truly incredible food you and your team provided for my husband’s Change of Command reception. Everything was absolutely delicious—crafted with care, beautifully presented, and deeply appreciated by all who had the pleasure of enjoying it.
A special thank you to Mariah for ensuring the timely delivery.
Please extend my sincere appreciation to your entire staff for their hard work and dedication. The Smith House is undeniably a gem, and we will most certainly be return customers. Your support of 5th RTB means so much, and we are grateful to have such a wonderful establishment in our corner.💙

Just ate at restaurant - did not stay in hotel. Had a family gathering for Thanksgiving. Building inside was ok. Everything was just mediocre. Had not been there in 30 years. Won't go back for another 30.

Great food and service! I met the owner and he was so nice. His family has been running the business since the 1940s

We loved our stay here and enjoyed our breakfast. We loved the rooms and the location because of the walking distance to the square.

I have eaten at this restaurant many, many times under the “old” ownership. I brought my out of -town daughter in for lunch on October 15, 2024 and had EXTREMELY poor service and the small (individual size) bowls they brought out were only half full. After examining another party of 2 table and their portions, their small bowls were filled to the top. Our server took our order and brought out our sweet teas…she NEVER returned! Someone else brought out our food and no one EVER returned to our table! My daughter asked if our server left for the day and they said “No”. Still, our server never came back. We asked for the manager and was told she had left for the day. I have been a General Manager over a large restaurant and a manager should NEVER leave before the customers! I was told to call back the following day, in which I did. I was told she was busy and to leave a message, in which I did. She NEVER returned my call. I proceeded to leave her another message 2 days later, still no response and again 5 days after my visit. Still no response. So today, 11 days after my visit I tried calling at an off hour and the manager was told but again I was informed she was too busy. I was asked what I was expecting, I said that I would like to be compensated after spending $46.00 for lunch for me and my daughter. Either as a refund or to be able to come back and let them make it right as I am somewhat of a local. I was told that they “NEVER give refunds or replace meals”. I was also told I shouldn’t have waited so long!!! Waited so long? So trying to contact them before I left that day and calling the very next day was waiting too long? Seriously? My advice is to save your money and DO NOT WASTE YOUR OWN TIME and MONEY eating at The Smith House!!! The food was just okay. If you are truly looking for this kind of a dining experience, take a drive to the Dillard House! The food is so much better and a much better experience all the way around. Also the mountainous view is beautiful.

We had our wedding reception at the Smith House and it was wonderful. Mariah was helpful with planning and explaining everything. We had so many choices for food. Our server Rose was amazing and made sure everyone was well taken care of. Also, she was super nice to the baby. Nobody had an empty beer or wine glass at any point. Our guests loved the food. The fried chicken was delicious, so was the cobbler. Our family is still talking about how nice everything was. Also, the prices were reasonable. I am so glad we chose to have our reception here. We plan to return for holidays and anniversaries as well.

Food tasted good, but I contracted food poisoning from this restaurant! I have never experienced food poisoning in my lifetime and have been extremely ill. In the facility restroom there appeared to be vomit in the sink as well. It seems like this business has been negligible in ensuring the cleanliness and safety of their food.
The restaurant is amazing. Plenty of food and variety for everyone. Served family style. $20-30 per person.

Such an amazing place to stay while in Dahlonega! The staff are wonderful as they really made the experience feel special for our wedding weekend! It is located centrally in town so you can basically walk around the town and see all the shops around! I highly recommend it!

Do not waste your time eating breakfast here. Food and service so disappointing. The only bad part of our trip was choosing here to eat breakfast.
