“This huddle house is hands down THE BEST huddle house I’ve ever had the pleasure of having a meal at. Not only was the service & food exceptional- but my two young kids were in the heat with a dead battery & without hesitation the staff jumped right in to help. It’s not an option, but I’d give a 10/10- nope scratch that-
What do the kids say? BROKE MY SCALE! lol
Definitely so happy I chose here to eat!”

“Overall, we had a good experience. The restaurant had a cool look. The potato pancakes were good- crispy on the outside. They had a hint of flavor, but needed more. It was great with the apple sauce. The pretzel was fluffy and soft with very delicious cheese! It was so cheesy and had a distinct taste. I think in general our problem was the good was bland. My husband had the chicken sandwich and said it was good- the flavor coming from the burnt parts. I got the beef roast- it was good, but it was slathered in gravy. The carrots and potatoes needed seasoning. My son got the chicken schnitzel. It was soggy. The mashy potatoes had a good texture, but needed seasoning. The spaetzle was also soggy- maybe that's how they are supposed to be? I don't know much about German food, but maybe this is how it's supposed to taste?? We went back a second time and sat in a different room- there were no TVs and the lights were super bright so we got out food to go. The pretzel was just as good. The french onion soup was okay- probably better there. The mozzarella was not was stretchy/stringy as I remember. It also might not have been mozzarella- not sure. We also had a piece of German chocolate cake. It was good. The cake was moist and the cream was thick with coconut and nuts!”

The two of us shared a combination platter, kielbasa, perogies, three different kinds of sauerkrauts, and a cabbage roll. It was plenty, but we just wanted some more perogies, but not a full perogie platter. When we asked, the German cook said she could do that for us, she was really nice, and the only one in the kitchen. The perogies are homemade and that good.”

“My wife and I just returned from celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, at the Valhalla Resort Hotel. We absolutely LOVED it! The minute we drove up to the hotel’s front door, we were greeted by Steve, a tremendous valet! He genuinely treated us like we were the most important people in the hotel, right from the get go! Then, as we walked into the hotel, Judy welcomed us in with a smile, and explained to us what Valhalla had to offer. I felt like we were visiting with friends! Our room was beautiful, and quite festive, as our youngest daughter purchased the “Celebrate You” package for us! Later that evening, we went to have a drink at the Sky Bar, which has beautiful Mountain Views! Matt was the bartender, who fixed us an Old Fashioned, a Jalapeño Margarita. DELICIOUS! Matt is full of personality, and was right on point both days we spent time with him! Lastly, we met Jerry Murdock, the owner. Jerry was as kind as can be, and is an absolute riot! Thank you Valhalla, for helping to make our 30th wedding anniversary a most special one! We will be back!”

“Morgan did a great job as a new server! Other employees were very pleasant as well.
We started with a pretzel and bowl of goulash both of which we would recommend. For the entree I got the meal with three wurst sausages, sauerkraut and potato salad. My meal was very good. The sausages are huge. My wife got the sauerbraten. It was neither sour nor tender. It was more like dry pot roast. The dumpling was good but unremarkable.
There was a decent selection of German beers that are served in 1 liter mugs. I would request a cold mug. The handles to my mugs were warm. My beers were not as cold as they could have been.
The atmosphere was average. Nothing noteworthy. Outdoor bier garten or indoor dining.
One complaint I do have is the air conditioning ducts dripping condensation onto our table. I'm sure it was splashing onto our plates off the table as a drop or two landed on my hand. Unpleasant.
We recommend a visit though. Just avoid the sauerbraten and sitting under the a/c ducts.”

Snack Shack 8635 North Main Street Suite 10, Helen American • $

“This is the ONLY food place in Helen above a 4.8 stars for a REASON! When the man at the cash register is covered in tattoos wearing Pit Vypers and a baseball jersey with a picture of the Milky Way on it, there’s only one of two ways your culinary experience is gonna go: horrible, or life changing.

Ours was absolutely the latter. Clayton (a DUDE’S DUDE!) hooked us up with phenomenal fried chicken tenders and mozzarella sticks. The satisfying, extra crispiness on the outside gave way to a wonderful, melty middle that hugged my molars like little pillows and made me feel like a child again.

Clayton did a fantastic job getting the food out quickly and making us feel welcome. He gave us great recommendations on good local places to visit.

After our order he single handedly rescued a puppy from a motorcycle accident, counseled a couple to reconsider divorce and found not one but TWO homes for lost orphans who stoped by. This is the greatest place on earth, second only to church. Go to the snack shack, you won’t regret it.”

“From the time I made reservations until we exited the restaurant the staff at Anna's Italian Kitchen was superb. The freshness of the meal and the flavors were good and delicious. The presentation was one of elegance, yet welcoming.
Brody, our waiter, made sure everything was perfect. For an added bonus, he serenaded the restaurant with his awesome voice.
The views from the dining room were beautiful, as the sun set over the mountains.

The value of the dinner is great. We had an eight course dinner with plenty of leftovers (believe me, you will want to savor every bite).
I suggest you sit and enjoy every minute and every bite (they do not rush you or make you feel uncomfortable for taking your time).”

“Delicious✨. My family went there specifically because of the good reviews one of us was reading. I don’t know what site he was using but they were all outstanding, nothing less than a four star. I thought the place was amazing! We were served pretty quickly and the appetizers greatly appeased the wait. The loaded fries and chicken I got was DELICIOUS! I have never eaten anything better ? (I’m not a bot, I swear?). The servers were really nice, especially the guy on the phone when we called to ask about the wait (there was none!) They even pushed enough tables together to have our 19 people sitting at the same table (usually they say 15 people a table, max at other restaurants). I have absolutely nothing bad to say about it??‍♀️. Highly recommend!”
