50 Best American Restaurants near Sugar Hill

“I’ve been to this location a few times and have always had a good experience. Nicole was my server tonight and honestly was the best service I’ve had at a sit down restaurant in a very long time! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure I had a great experience! I’ll definitely be back!“

“A random pick that proved to be excellent! The wings were perfectly cooked, and little extra touches impressed me. Like the celery was served chilled and wrapped in foil, served away from the hot food, and the sauced wings were separated from the fries by wax paper! This extra time and attention improved the quality of my serving, and took extra time and materials and showed attention to detail. And to top it off, the place, all the way to the restroom, was impeccably clean and orderly! I will seek this place out again when il in the area!“

“The food is fantastic, and the staff always makes my family feel welcomed. Charlie, the owner, is awesome as well. The interior is very clean and has a nice ambiance. My favorite things to order there are the bacon deluxe burger, strawberry field salad, or the cod dinner.“

“Under new management as of early 2025. Overall experience is much improved (from mid-late 2024), and I highly recommend visiting if you haven't in a while. Bone-in wings were fresh, crispy, seasoned well and larger than places like American Deli. The boneless wings (my favorite) were also large and crispy but more juicy compared to the bone-in. As for the burgers, the cost to quality ratio is very hard to beat, all ingredients were fresh and made for a very, very tasty combination!!! The young staff were super friendly and helpful, they have certainly earned my future business!“

“Delicious food. Lovely staff.“

“Great Gwinnett 1818 Club is the best“

“I'm usually very critical of such places but let's be realistic about it, this is an extended dinner with entertainment. It was fine and, in fact, the chicken was surprisingly good. The limited soft drink options was a disappointment and the entertainment was just a family fun time. Overall. a very nice 3 hours (approximately) which was just long enough to not get boring. Well done.“

“My wife and I found this spot today for Sunday Brunch and it was fantastic! I had the Short Rib Hash and my wife had the Salmon Benedict. A fabulous cocktail and Creme Brulee for dessert. Service was also great!“

“Looking for a place to have a Bridal Brunch and this place checks 4 of the 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Was hoping for a shrimp and grits on the menu, but with that said let me say that what I had was delicious. I had the raspberry mimosa, toasted croissant with chicken salad, and the cucumber salad. The complimentary raisin scones were fabulous. It made front runner for our brunch. The service was delightful. All in all it was 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“EXTREMELY happy with my visit here, I will absolutely be back. The bathrooms are very large, and if you need the handicapped stall, they are large enough for a seat transfer with their own sink.
The host, Luka, saw us coming and opened the doors for us, and was very pleasant. I could tell from his demeanor that we'd chosen a great restaurant. Our waitress, Sam, was also extremely friendly and very knowledgable about the menu, patient with our indeciveness (So many great options!), and fun to talk to. We ordered lamb, meatballs, rotissere chicken, and lobster bisque, and everything was just exquisite. Despite the size of the building, it's nice and quiet, and they have real candles at the tables. The lighting is a bit dim, but it's a surprisingly cozy atmosphere for how large the space is.“

“Aqua Terra never fails.... I used to go there a lot when I was working in Buford. Nice cocktails at the bar before you sit down for the sizzling steaks and garlick mash potatoes, or perfectly seared scallops and pasta, topped with cream brulee, good selection of wines and port. My wife reminds me of her favorite, the lobster bisque. Professional service and live piano music, as per the original owner, Laura's vision.This New Year dinner, I was told that it changed hands but kudos to the new owners, everything was as good... Happy New Year to all...“

“The employees were super friendly and caring. They got my order perfect and the food was worth it! I had their super gyro. The meat was delicious and the bread was perfect. To top it off, their friends were the perfect balance of crisp and soft with salt. Definitely will come back the next time I'm in GA.“

“For me - this is the best restaurant on Lake Lanier. Love the Buffalo chicken pizza - just add bacon. The salmon BLT is so tasty, too. Hard to go wrong at Twisted Oar.“

“Outstanding Food and Overall Experience! - Reservation for 8 to celebrate my youngest daughter's birthday (4:30 on a Friday). We almost changed our mind, because we learned my oldest daughter and her hubby had a bad experience at this restaurant in 2021. So glad we gave it another chance. Restaurant is under new management, and it shows! From the greeters at the door with smiles making a first impression, to a personable, attentive server (LeLe), excellent food and engagement by the manager being visible and interacting with guests - it was well worth our time. Total enjoyment! Our group had the snapper, salmon, shrimp & grits, catfish and one vegetarian who made a meal from the sides. Food was beautifully plated and presented and everything was hot & fresh, well seasoned and tasted great. Generous portions too. We also had the bourbon glazed brussels, skillet cornbread and the sticky ribs as appetizers. HIGHLY recommend the brussels and the ribs!! It was the first day testing the ribs, so you may have to ask for them, if they're not on the menu yet. Appreciated the free birthday dessert! If you had a previous bad experience over the last couple of years, you may want to try again. The new manager has the right attitude and a good vision for setting a new standard for The Parkside District. Keep it up! We will definitely visit again. We are glad to recommend the restaurant!“

“Great little spot and very fast service. Got the bacon double cheese burger and it was very, very good! Best part, it was cheaper than some crappy Ronald M burger! Been here twice and it was great both times. Gotta try their breakfast next!“

“Great service, food is absolutely amazing and the atmosphere is very clean and definitely can relax and have some amazing food“

“Came in today for lunch on the patio. It's been a few years since I've been to a Marlows and first time visiting this location. Masie took excellent care of our table and the food was excellent. I opted for the crab cake sandwich, no bun and subbed a side salad for fries. It was exactly what I was wanting and was happy that they could accommodate a couple of easy swaps. We'll be back.“

“My fiancé and I were looking for someplace nice within a 30 minute drive of Winder. Antebellum popped up on our search. And we are glad it did. Restaurant was quaint and nice. Lighting perfect. And food and ambiance amazing. Charity, our waitress, was kind, courteous and knowledgeable of the menu and drinks. Checked on us often. And hospitable conversation. We will return. Plus since it was Christmas week, the lighting of restaurant and little downtown of Flowery Branch was amazing!!“

“We joined a weekly networking meeting for the first time, and everything was fantastic. The service, atmosphere and food were amazing! Fried pepper Jack on a burger 🤤🤤. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Went here for brunch with a group of friends from church. The atmosphere inside was vibrant coming off like an old diner with Las Vegas memorabilia on the walls. The menu was expansive with many options to choose from. I ordered their special Elvis cakes which were 3 pancakes covered in banana slices, peanut butter chips, and powdered sugar. The cakes were quite filling with no additional condiments needed. I also ordered a small bowl of their fried potatoes which were surprisingly good! Service was excellent despite the large crowd of people. Overall a great place to go for breakfast/brunch.“

“The Father's Day Celebration started yesterday with dinner at Bubba33! There was something on the menu for everyone in our party of 6! Everyone enjoyed their choices and had leftovers for later. The host was warm and gracious. Jayden, our server was attentive and kind! The atmosphere was great! All the stars for Bubba33 in Buford, GA!“

“One of the best burgers around. Loved every bite. The extra price for fries should be more than a small handful. But the burger was amazing. Will be back for sure soon.“

“OMG! If you go ask for Omar. Nice clean cut young man. Been there about week. Excellent Excellent Excellent service. His service tonight for the 5 of us was off the charts.

“Was craving wings or burgers and happen to drive through Publix and saw this place. Was an hour before closing so fiancé and I ordered to go. The chickens have so many flavors to pick from. We tried the honey mild, dry rub Jamaican jerk, and garlic Parmesan for now but we want to try more of the other flavors. And try out a burger.“

This is, hands down, the best coffee shop I’ve ever been to. The owners are truly AMAZING and the staff are the friendliest people you’ll meet—genuinely kind, welcoming, and thoughtful. Everything on the menu is amazing—you truly can’t go wrong no matter what you order. We’ll definitely be back soon. It’s absolutely worth the 7-hour drive from Florida!“
