“If you’re looking for the best Southern cooking in North Georgia, Aunt Effie’s Restaurant is THE place to go! This family-owned gem has been serving the community since 1985, and it’s clear why they’ve been a beloved staple for nearly 40 years. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm, friendly smiles and the unmistakable aroma of down-home country cooking. The atmosphere feels like stepping into your grandma’s kitchen, filled with charm, history, and genuine Southern hospitality. The food is absolutely incredible—every bite takes you back to the kind of meals that fill your heart as much as your stomach. The fried chicken is golden perfection, the homemade biscuits are melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the side dishes (don’t miss the mac and cheese or collard greens!) are just like the ones you dream of during the holidays. And don’t even get me started on the desserts! Their cobbler is a slice of heaven, and the banana pudding is to die for. What makes Aunt Effie’s even more special is the story behind it. It’s been a family-owned and operated restaurant since the very beginning, serving love and comfort on every plate. The dedication they’ve shown to Ringgold and the surrounding area for over three decades is truly remarkable, and it shows in every detail—from the quality of the food to the exceptional service. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on one of Ringgold’s treasures. Whether you’re craving a hearty meal, a nostalgic experience, or just a warm place to gather with friends and family, Aunt Effie’s delivers every time. It’s not just a restaurant; it’s a piece of the community and a tradition that keeps getting better with age. Make sure to stop by and support this local icon—you won’t regret it. Thank you, Aunt Effie’s, for continuing to serve amazing food and creating memories for all of us. Here’s to many more years of delicious meals and happy diners!“

“Great Food I would Recommend this place to everyone 5 stars 🌟 if I could give 10 stars I would.“

“How long has the long John silvers,been in business in fort Oglethorpe ga“

“We eat lunch here weekly. The food and service are always on point. The prices are a good value as well. Definitely recommend!“

“The food was amazing! Compliments to the cook who prepared our steaks exactly how we wanted.
Our server Mary was beyond amazing! She was super friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. She was very fast with our order and made sure to check on us frequently. I overheard two staff members talking and it was one of the girls first weeks I think, and the other staff member was encouraging her which is always great to hear.
The reason I'm leaving four stars though, is because the manager on shift seemed to be under the influence and was talking about other staff members loud enough for us to hear. Not very professional in my opinion and doesn't set a welcoming environment for guest. You could his frustration with one area not being to his cleaning standards and how the waitress could finish sweeping the rest of the area.“

“The ribeye sandwich was excellent and so were the fries. The waitress is had can't remember her name she was very kind and respectful.

Vegetarian options: They have gluten free food and it's clearly marked gluten free“

“We come here quite often cuz I love their steak pasta, it’s always really good. Today we had Abbi for the first time as our sever and she was awesome! It’s always a hit or miss if we get rolls, even when we ask for them, but she made sure to bring us some and even offered another basket fresh out of the oven. She also checked on us a few times and was very friendly in general. Definitely had to leave a review this time cuz she was awesome!“

“First time at this one. Hungry and stressed out after driving through a hurricane in Georgia , finally becoming a man, and running away from a
giant chemical plume right by where they filmed the Walking Dead. It was scary!!

Hash browns smothered covered chunked, coffee. Server was funny. Fixed everything. Thank you Waffle House for always being there, for all of us 🙏 praise Jesus amen 🙏“

“Had the easiest yummiest catering experience for our preschool thanksgiving lunch today!! Tara made things so easy and smooth! Thank you so much!“

“My wife and I hosted our son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Station House on Friday, October 11th and everything was perfect! We reserved the outdoor patio a few weeks in advance and Chailada was very accommodating. The staff was wonderful, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the food was delicious! We had about 30 people there and everyone got plenty to eat from the buffet that was served promptly. Guests were talking about how great the dinner was for days! I highly recommend Station House for all of your family get-togethers or just for a wonderful dinner. Thank you, Chailada and staff!!!“

“Great service. Food great as usual.“

“I've always loved steak 'n shake. I visited the steak 'n shake while I was out of town which is this one and it was much different than my locations in Florida having to order at a counter and then go sit down and pick up your food. It just seems like not the steak 'n shake way. It was good but it could have been better.“

“first time here and our server Emily was fabulous from the beginning to the end of our experience, the appetizer was great and our Steaks were cooked to perfection the temp we asked for...be sure to ask for Emily, she will most definitely give you awsome service“

“We had a good morning breakfast at this IHOP. Wait times were low and staff was very kind. The food was good and met our expectations. Our server Marielle M was the highlight of our visit! She was so kind and attentive to our needs and made good suggestions! We’ll be looking for her next time!“

“Everything has been good except the super extremely over-salted fries. It literally makes slight blisters in my mouth due to the salt content. I looked all over the app to find a request for light salt, but couldn’t find anything. There’s gotta be more salt than potatoes. I love the fries, but please cut back on the salt. The sweet potato pie is phenomenal! I highly recommend.
Also, what happened to the cinnamon Bo biscuits? They were 100X’s better than those berry catastrophes.
Bring ‘em back! They’re missed!

Vegetarian options: There’s really nothing here for a vegetarian, except maybe a couple of the sides, but they probably have lard in them. They’re high in fat.

Dietary restrictions: Be very careful if you are on blood pressure medication. The salt content is no exaggeration. It’s extremely high!“

“Food is always hot and fresh“

“Kinda a weird place to go alone, not enough corners, not really any barriers between booths.

But uh, great service.
Love their Boneless Wings Thursdays.

Shame they limit people to 15 (regular order) wings on BOGO Thursday, would much prefer to get 60 (regular order 30) instead.
They'd get more money from alcohol sales if people stuck around to shove expensive chicken nuggets drenched in sauces longer.

.. oh, and don't bother with the $20 boneless AND fries combo. These fries are more tasteless than Steak And Shake fries and of similar cut.“

“Excellent food and friendly professionalism by Lane at Captain D's. I will be bringing my family back. Thank you!“
