Barbeque Restaurants near Hiawassee

“From Louisiana we were here on a contract in the mountains and wanted bbq, went to 3 different bbq places during our stay in 2021! This was the best bbq I ever had in my life, best service, best prices, best quality, best taste! I always look for this place when I visit ga, it’s just so far! But it’s worth the 2 hour drive every time! I had to search my messages to find this place again! This time I will not lose it because I am putting a saved pin ? on it!“

“Our family had a great dinner here on our trip to Hiawassee. The bbq was delicious and the staff made us feel at home. We were celebrating my daughter who is a senior in high school getting accepted into the college of her choice. Definitely planning on visiting Hawg Wild on our next visit to Hiawassee. Also they have amazing views to enjoy while dining of the lake and mountains.“

“There were few choices in town for dinner this time of year. Pulled pork was good. The ribs were a little too spicy with the rub. A nice gentleman, I assume was the owner or manager offered something as a replacement. Service was good. Overall, not bad. I'd stick to the pulled pork. Nice sized portions.“

“The food is really good. The lemonades are good, although pricey. The service is slow, but she is only one person. It is a food truck parked in front of a small brewery bar. They share the outside seating, so it can be warm. There are some shady spots to sit at. There is live music by an older guy that plays mostly older music.“

“So as a flat-lander visiting the North Georgia Mountains, Firehouse 17 Pizza and More is a must do when in Young Harris. The garlic knots were EPIC. Savory, flavorful and full of GAHLIC!Then came the caprese salad, then the “original” margarita, the meatball parm sub, the supremely delicious dessert Knots!!With three separate sauces (pizza, meatball sub, etc) , this restaurant is a welcome addition to Young Harris. Yes the restaurant has been here for years BUT it’s now under new management and they have improved on the recipes, the FRESH ingredients, and the service and it shows!!Make it a point to stop here for dinner. Todd, a Marine Corps Veteran, will welcome you and serve you some of the best “Za” in Towns County.Parking: This place has a HUGE parking lot in the rear.“

“Last weekend we decided to take a drive and visit rib country in Haysville, North Carolina.When we arrived and entered the establishment we were greeted by a lovely young lady. She was pleasant, attentive and very prompt with seating us quickly.Our waitress followed right behind the hostess and made us feel welcome as she answered our questions about the menu and the smoking process they use for their bbq entrees.First we ordered a half Onion loaf as our appetizer that was out of this world. Hot and amazingly not to greasy. I then ordered the pulled pork plate with a side salad, beans and a loaded baked potato. My friend ordered the baby back rib platter with French fries and cole slaw. When we finished our starter our main meals were served promptly. The food was hot, accurate and delicious. Our meats were tender and moist and our sides were hot and amazing. I wish some of the other Rib Country restaurants had a manager that knows how to treat their team with good cross training and respect as the quality and service is shown in haysville. Congratulations Haysville team we will be back. Thank you.“
