8 Best Bars near Dawsonville

“Julio and Claudio made sure we had a great 70th birthday experience. They put the sombrero on the birthday "boy" and brought the lit tray of 70 candles we snuck in beforehand out with dessert. Then they and their crew sang Happy Birthday in English and Spanish. The guests were thrilled! And on top of it, the food was absolutely wonderful! Love this place.“

“My husband and I had dinner here with my in-laws last night. We originally went upstairs to the bar area, and almost decided against staying. It was loud and the temp was pretty hot. The hostess mentioned that there was also seating downstairs. We were so glad we decided to go downstairs. The dining room was so spacious and cool. It was such a cool atmosphere. The service was great, too! Now to the best part. The food. Oh my goodness!! I don’t think any review can do justice for the food we had. We started with the Crawfish Dip appetizer, which came with homemade pita tortilla chips. It was amazing! Then our main dishes showed up and, Y’ALL!!!! The food was out of this world! My husband and mother-in-law ordered the Seafood Platter. It was the freshest seafood, with the lightest batter. Crawfish, oysters, mahi, crab puppies (literally mini crab cake balls) and fries. It was incredible. My father-in-law ordered the Muffaletta Sandwich with roasted sweet potatoes. Those sweet potatoes were chef’s kiss 🤌🏻😘 I ordered the Crab Cakes & Shrimp. It was the most delicious meal I’ve ever eaten. Two huge crab cakes topped with grilled shrimp, served over top a bed of Bourbon Street rice, blended with colored bell peppers, mushrooms, and spinach sautéed in homemade Alfredo sauce. I can’t even describe the flavor profile. My tongue was in euphoria! Bourbon Street Grille is a MUST TRY when you visit Dahlonega. The prices were fair, the portion sizes were large, and the atmosphere was great.“

“We held our son's and his bride's rehearsal brunch here and the place is incredible! The new white stained deck is gorgeous! Leah and her team are great to work with and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this place to hold an event or get a fantastic meal.“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but I feel compelled to share my experience because it genuinely ruined what was supposed to be a special occasion. This is usually my favorite spot to eat, so I was really disappointed.

My waiter was shockingly unprofessional and downright rude throughout my visit. He shoved plates at me instead of serving them properly — not just once, but multiple times.

At first, I tried to be understanding since he seemed to be the only server working, but I couldn’t help but notice that he was perfectly pleasant and attentive to other tables. It really felt like I was singled out and treated disrespectfully for no reason.

This was supposed to be a nice birthday celebration, but instead, I left feeling upset and embarrassed. I would not recommend this place based on how I was treated, and I hope management takes steps to ensure no one else has their special day ruined like this.“

“Trattoria is a gem of an addition to Monaluce! Great food and service. Outside service is fabulous with a great fire pit. That being said, there is 1 negative that I hope they fix, or I will limit my visits. It's the wine cost and selection. Even at the finest restaurants in Atlanta 20 to 25 dollars per glass is ok for their finest wines. At Trattoria, their very mediocre wines, (was told a couple of them on the menu are grapes that they bring in), are 20-25 per glass. That, to me, is not a very good selling point. Expand your menu, add some NAPA wines, charge me 20 per glass and I will frequent Trattoria!“
