“Delicious!! Come here every time we're in town and the food is great. Everything was hot and crispy!

It's not upscale so don't expect that when you come here but if you want a quick, delicious bite for cheap, this is the place to stop.

For 4 people we paid only $34! 2 Cheeseburgers, 1 grilled cheese, 2 large onion rings, 1 small tater tot, and 3 medium drinks11

Drive thru available as well.“

“The Double L restaurant is home cooking at a restaurant. The Double L obviously aims to try to satisfy many different “cravings” and therefore have multiple food options. Many meat; vegetable and dessert options to choose from! My family and I don’t eat out a lot as I have a home business, but when we do, we like to eat here. Try it, you’ll like it!“

“We’re out of towners in Ellijay to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. We almost ate someplace else because of some negative reviews about having to wait so long to get their food. We were seated immediately and our orders taken within 5 minutes. We had our food in 15-20 minutes. We’re glad we ignored the bad reviews and took a chance. Good food and plenty of it.“

“Just a classic. The food is comfort food to the core. I have had the Chuckwagon and Fried Bologna sandwiches, both were excellent and full of flavor. The okra, corn nuggets, tots and onion rings I tried as well, all were very delicious. On top of all that they have great prices and you walk away feeling satisfied and not feeling like you spent a bunch. A must stop!“

“There are 4 of us that travel together and we are always trying different restaurants. This is the first time all of us were extremely pleased with our food. My burger was the best I've ever had! I tried tasting just the meat, and omg I could have ate just the patty by itself it was so flavorful and juicy!“

“My husband and I were craving good country cooking and found this place. When we pulled up we were hesitant to go in because the outside wasn't very appealing. However, we went in and to our surprise, the inside was very welcoming. The staff greeted us as soon as we walked in. Plenty of seating even though there were lots of people in there. I chose fried chicken, sweet potatoes and cabbage. I'm not a huge fan of chicken breast, but thats what they had so I got it. I am so glad I did, it was cooked perfectly, tender and big. My husband got hamburger steak, mashed potatoes and turnip greens, he enjoyed his as well. We are sad we just found this place because our vacation is now over, but I do highly recommend!!“

“the last 2x i have been their food is not enoigh to make 1 8sandwhich. They have shorted me food and want my cc to charge it again for what i was shorted which was a tea. i also ordered extra piece of toast so that means they charged me $3 for 1 piece of toast. so now 2x in a row i was charged $14.96 for a chopped plate, 1 extra piece of toast, and a med tea.when i arrive to pick up my food they tell me they didn't charge me for a tea and want my cc to charge it for the tea. i told them to forget it. get home i don't even have enough meat to make a full sandwhich and that means they charged me $3.96 for 1 extra piece of toast cuz a chopped plate is 10.99. becareful they are ripping people off. i have called to speak to the manager and some little girl tells me she is the manager and that's her shift and that it is right and no one else for me to talk to so i will stop going if that is how they are going to do business. i ate my last plater from them this past Sunday. i Will not and do not recommend any one to eat from there“

“If you haven’t eaten at Cajun Depot Grill, you absolutely need to go! The food is absolutely amazing—flavorful, hearty, and cooked to perfection. But what truly makes this place special is the owner and staff. They are incredibly kind and welcoming, making you feel like family from the moment you walk in. They remember you on return visits, ask about your family, and genuinely care about how you're doing. That hometown feel and personal touch make all the difference. You really can’t go wrong here. We’ve been dining here for years, and I’ve never had a single complaint. Highly recommend!“
