In the mountains of North Georgia the Lake Rabun Hotel & Restaurant has been welcoming guests since 1922. Restored in 2008, the hotel and restaurant offer the best of rustic elegance. From the antique heart pine walls to the locust beams on our deck, expect unique, local craftsmanship. The decor is rich with period antiques, hand-woven rugs, and local artwork.

It features a creatively prepared and presented Contemporary American menu with a Southern twist in the farm to table tradition. Fresh produce locally grown is hand selected and prepared by our Chef de Cuisine, whose entrees respect the natural flavors of high quality, humanely raised and locally harvested food. His kitchen produces cuisines from many regions including Classical French, Southern USA, and Mediterranean. Many guests describe the food at the Lake Rabun Hotel as "the best in the mountains."

    Another Wonderful night at Lake Rabun celebrating my grandmothers Birthday!! We always go out just the two of us for her birthday and after my experience this week we decided on Lake Rabun for her Birthday as well. We both had the Salmon and the peach glaze on the salmon was a perfect pairing. Our server Taelor made sure the night was extra special for my grandmother and I appreciate her attention to detail and going out of her way to make our night the perfect celebration.

    The dinner was lovely. The food was prepared just as requested, the service was excellent & the restaurant was quiet so it was easy to have a conversation. We eat here often when we are in north GA and the inn never fails to deliver a pleasant experience with delicious food.

    A native of the area, I had thought about visiting the Lake Rabun Restaurant numerous times. Something always came up. After my dinner last night you can bet I will prioritize getting back here asap! I can’t believe we didn’t know this amazing food was right here local! They had a prim rib special and it was to die for. The staff so kind and attentive .

    We both had the seafood special which was a trio of seafood---very yummy. House salad for starter was excellent and chocolate cake dessert was rich and decadent. Highly recommended!! Just gave 4 stars on ambiance due to cold temp outside which infiltrated a bit in the section where we were seated.

    My wife and I had an incredible anniversary dinner at Lake Rabun Hotel & Restaurant. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable service. Every dish we tried was delicious, and the presentation of the food was spot on. The ambiance was elegant, perfect for a romantic evening. Our server, Savannah, was attentive and friendly. We can't wait until our next visit!

    Tonight we came to Lake Rabun Hotel to celebrate my Birthday. The night was absolutely perfect from the time we walked in we were greeted with a warm welcome. We arrived early and wanted to have a few drinks at the bar we enjoyed relaxing and getting to meet Jessi, she made me the best Sangria I have ever had, it is called the Spring Sangria it is an absolute must to try!! Dinner was absolutely wonderful I got the Special Seafood Trio and my husband got the Ribeye and they both were great! I received a free dessert for my Birthday and I picked the Creme Brulee and it was so good, my husband decided he had to have one to. We will absolutely be back!!
