Review of Lake Rabun Hotel

Very friendly! We showed up early, were invited to look around, and were offered drinks while we waited! How can you get better than that?

Food. It was good... a couple small errors though:

Pork was slightly overcooked at the edges and dried. As if someone wanted to make sure the center was done, but misjudged the external effect.

Grand Mariner caramel with the chocolate torte was incorrectly prepared. Honestly, caramel that ends up crystallizing should never be plated.

So now the great:

Focaccia bread was brought out warm and was so flavorful! The wedge salad was very nice. But the local salad was top notch! Blood orange vinigrite was light and satisfying, allowing you to still taste all the other elements of the salad! Get it!

The Filet Mignon was one of few that literally melts in your mouth. With great mashed potatoes and phenomenal honey roasted beets this was easily the best entree on the table.

We were sad the swordfish had run out, but it will not keep us from returning.

Next time we come, we are staying the night and will let you know about that as well!
