“The chicken strips and the french fries are the bomb! The girl at the drive-thru was extremely friendly and the team was doing a great job getting people moving through the drive-thru. I had to give her a tip ! Great experience and great job guys!“

“My son and I visited Chattanooga for the tow show over the weekend and we were looking to eat some wings at a local establishment while we were there. I had asked a few locals where to go, but all of there recommendations were either chain restaurants or places further then we wanted to travel. Thank goodness for Google, as this establishment was one of the 1st ones to pop up for chicken wings. Plus, it was a short drive from where we were staying. I knew as soon as we walked in that this place was special. It has a real down home feel about it and an amazing aroma that comes from the kitchen. I had originally ordered 10 “hot” wings, thinking that they were gonna be your average heat level. The very kind waitress (thankfully) warned me that their “hot” was really hot 🥵. I enjoy spicy seasoned foods, but I also like to enjoy it as well. So I decided to listen to her and order half hot/ half medium. What I great idea that was, as the hot flavored wings about took my breath away lol. They were so good, but hot hot hot! The medium flavor was perfect for me, with just the right amount of spicy. So if you looking for some great tasting chicken wings and maybe even want to burn your lips off lol… Then this is the place to come. I give it 5 stars and will definitely be visiting again on our next trip to town.“

“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!“

“Fast, professional, and amazing!“

“Very friendly atmosphere and staff. The food was better than expected. I especially recommend the dirty fries. The resturaunt itself was very clean as well. The bathrooms too some of the cleanest I've ever seen. Definitely coming here again.

Parking: Plenty of parking in front and on the side of the building.“

“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!“

“Emma L. was our server tonight. We were watching the Bama/ TN game. She was extremely entertaining, along with the staff. She didn't make me feel bad that Bama lost. I give her 5 stars. Sophie H., Allie V., Arissa K., Katelyn G. were also extremely awesome. They make the Lee hwy Champy's a place i look forward to coming to.“

“Big shout out to Summer at the drive thru for spreading good vibes. As I ordered, she complimented a ring I was wearing. I shared with her I had recently lost one of my favorite rings and she said I would probably find it when I least expected to. Well, guess what? Came home and put on gloves for cleaning kitchen and my ring magically appeared inside the glove! Thanks Summer for the good vibes. You made my day!!“

“For a Chick-fil-A, it was pretty slow moving in that drive-through. The employees were good, no complaints about them or the food. I'm not even really complaining about the wait time either, as I've been in much worse. It just seemed like longer than normal and with fewer cars.“

“Love it .so yummy . Very fast and good“

“This was my first visit. I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll be back.“

“Limited menu. Only one size fry and drink. Medium. No chicken noodle soup. You fix your own drink. You do not pay at the Chick-fil-a counter. You pay around the corner at the checkout desk. You pay for all food items in the cafeteria at the same checkout desk. Including Subway and Chef's Corner.“

“I had a large order that was needed for a Father's Day gathering. I was able to call and speak to the manager Gina. She was able to assist me with all of my needs and when I got there to pick it up everything was hot and ready! Her staff was also great with assisting me to get my order to my vehicle! Customer service was top notch! The restaurant was clean too! Thank you to Gina and all of her staff for making my family event a great success! Kudos!!!“

“This was my first time eating at Chicken Salad Chick on 7/15/24 Hamilton Place Mall area. The employees were patient and nice. I enjoyed the atmosphere inside of the restaurant. The newspaper article of the company was very informative. I enjoyed the seasonal salad, s'more rice crispy treat, watermelon tea, and strawberry lemonade. They had quality service and cleaned the areas when the customers left.“
