Restaurants near Dillard

“I’m so glad we have this level of good barbecue in Dillard, Ga now. I’ve enjoyed the Blue Hound too many times to count and will keep coming back. The daily specials are always fabulous and the ‘cue is always tender, flavorful, and juicy + the variety of sauces makes this place stand out. Do yourself a favor and try the pork belly bites & the bbq eggrolls!”

“I CAN NOT rave enough about this restaurant and am so mad that I didn't see this place until a recent trip! As a non-local that frequents the N. GA mountains, I like to try new places, but I am also painfully loyal to the places up here that I love, as I don't get to patron these businesses often. But, I decided to expand the horizons, and I absolutely found another place I will add to my list of faves for the area!!

First, the atmosphere was a fun but relaxed, lowkey vibe, the place felt so comfortable, and the rustic chic decor was so cute!

The service was excellent, truly exemplary! Our waitress, Kristin, was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us the true low-down on menu items. We appreciated her honesty and recommendations, as well as her attentive service! Do yourself a favor, request Kristin as your waitress!! AND if you are lucky, their superb bartender, Tyler, will be working! He made the best Moscow Mule I have ever had!! Plus, we tried the Starry Night off the menu, which was a SOLID choice! It tasted like a spiked fruit punch, SO delicious! I am so glad we had the fortune of receiving service from these two. I don't doubt the other staff strive to provide excellent service like these two.

Now, what you've all be waiting (or skimming) for, THE FOOD ?
WELL, it had me repeating "this is so good" throughout the meal in a way I have NEVER experienced. Seriously, I couldn't stop raving about the food while I was eating, even planned to call my mom after to tell her we must add this place to our restaurant rolodex for our vacations up here! The flavors were everything I didn't know I needed in my life and am elated to have found. It all started with the drinks and bread service. Now, this bread service comes with thin breadsticks and bread slices, in addition to arguably the best spreads for bread (and I am very picky with what I put on my bread, I tend to eat it naked). I don't remember exactly all that was in the spreads, but the reddish-orange one was a hummus and the speckled was a duck butter with chives. I never could've thought that I would love those and recommend them so easily. Then, we had our appetizers, which I rank as the top 3 appetizers, if not the best, that I have ever had in my life. I was blown away by the savory flavors that exploded in my mouth, I was speechless (believe it!)!! Stay with me here, if you leave Fortify without trying the gouda fritters, you didn't go to Fortify and you surely missed out on the most creamy, cheesy, perfectly crunchy, and tasty ball of joy (and you should be ashamed of yourself)!! I think I might dream of these gouda fritters for the rest of my life. They were simply put, sensational. From first bite, I wanted a lifetime supply, ugh, SO GOOD!!! And you add the pork belly?? Now, you're sailing. The pork belly was incredible! Judge for yourself, but I would be surprised if this app didn't rank high for you! Then, came dinner, which we were already amped to try based off experience with appetizers. My bestie had the duck, which she said was great and she enjoyed trying bread pudding in a way she has not before. I had the burger with homemade fries, which was perfectly cooked and puts many burgers to shame! I sincerely look forward to returning to try dessert, which we were fall too full for last night. The homemade ice cream flavors piqued our interests, so we will likely be back before our trip ends!

All that to say, I am a certified Fortify fan now! I love it there!”

Offering organic, whole-food smoothies, prepared meals by The Shed, organic produce and more, it’s a must stop while in Clayton! And perfect for locals who work downtown looking for a healthy meal alternative. 💛✨”
