Good place to eat. The Buffet is my favorite.
We love the food, friendly staff and cleanliness of Hiawassee Family Restaurant! Always have a great meal and excellent service.
We have ate here many times. The food we order from the menu or from the bar is always good. I can’t wait to go back. Hometown diner at its best!

Hiawassee Family Restaurant offers home style cooking in a casual setting. Some visitors find the initial experience confusing, with empty tables sometimes dirty and a seat-yourself policy, but staff are generally friendly. The food receives consistent praise for being very fresh, tasty, and exceptionally good, with specific highlights including the most tender biscuits ever, meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, coleslaw, chopped steak, fried okra, and Southern sweet tea. Portions, however, are sometimes considered too small for the price. The restaurant successfully provides traditional holiday fare like a Thanksgiving buffet with a salad bar and desserts. Overall, it is viewed as just the kind of restaurant Hiawassee needed, perfect for vacationers, with many customers planning to return.
