About North Georgia

North Georgia has been a beloved destination for couples to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Traveling to North Georgia allows you and your partner to reconnect with one another in one of the prettiest areas of the state.

Nestled in the mountains, you can spend your days doing a variety of activities when you’re not spending time in one of our rentals. But romantic getaways in North Georgia aren’t complete without dining at some of the most romantic restaurants in the region!

Romantic Restaurants in Ellijay

There are a lot of restaurants in Ellijay, GA,  but there are two that stand out among the rest as some of the most romantic. Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, engagement, or just your love for one another, these Ellijay restaurants sure know how to set the mood!

The Roof

Not only is The Roof a romantic restaurant, but it’s one of the best restaurants in North Georgia. The restaurant is right in Downtown Ellijay and has plenty of outdoor seating, so you can enjoy the beautiful North Georgia weather and mountain views. 

Dining here at night is the best way to absorb all the romantic vibes. When the sun sets, they turn on the twinkling lights, and you can enjoy dinner and a glass of wine with your partner. While it is a little more on the casual side, it’s still the perfect date night spot. They have a great drink selection for you to enjoy while you wait for your meal.

The staff has that quintessential Southern hospitality that will make you and your date feel like the most important people in the room. Now for the food. Think about elevated Southern cuisine, and that’s what’s on the menu here. We recommend trying something different, like their bologna sliders, apple butter meatloaf, or Appalachian trout.

The Butcher and Bottle

If you’re looking for a romantic restaurant that is the perfect blend of upscale and laid-back, you want to make a reservation at The Butcher and Bottle. This Ellijay restaurant is big on celebrations, so if you happen to be celebrating something with date night, be prepared to feel like a VIP!

The atmosphere at The Butcher and Bottle is elegant and cozy. The staff know how to make your dining experience memorable and are more than ready to suggest wine pairings depending on what you want to eat. One thing to know about this spot is that if you plan on dining here, everything is made to order, so it’s as fresh as it gets but might take a little longer to prepare.

The menu here features everything from salads, sandwiches, burgers, seafood, and more. Everything here is delicious, but if you want our opinion, start your meal with the lobster hush puppies. As for entrees, the short rib ragout pappardelle and dry-aged duroc pork chop are the two best on the menu!

Romantic Restaurants in Blue Ridge

You’ll find some of the best North Georgia restaurants in Blue Ridge. With everything from new takes on your favorite classics to innovative dishes filled with local flavor, there’s always something delicious to try. These are the top romantic restaurants in the area you won’t want to miss out on during your romantic North Georgia getaway!

Black Sheep Restaurant

Black Sheep Restaurant is one of the best in Blue Ridge. The restaurant is famous for its large outdoor bar and patio, as well as its fresh raw bar. Even if you’re not interested in a raw bar for date night, the rest of the menu is still worth dining here for. 

The menu here is what most people would think of when going to a romantic restaurant for a date night. It’s mainly filled with steaks and seafood, but they have plenty of other choices if those don’t appeal to you or your date. Even though they have excellent steaks, they also have plenty of Southern favorites. 

We suggest ordering two entrees that you and your date will both like so you can try more of the chef’s creations. We love the meatloaf, black and bleu filet mignon, and the pistachio-crusted snapper, but no matter what you order, you’ll love every bite!

Whiskey And Water

Whiskey And Water is another amazing option for a romantic night out. It’s a prominent seafood and bourbon bar in a stunning 1937 post office. The historical building, mood lighting, and coziness of the restaurant make it the perfect place for date night while you’re staying in one of our romantic cabin rentals in North Georgia. 

Seafood is the star of the menu here, but they also have fresh-cut steaks and southern favorites, like fried chicken and cornflake-crusted cod. Depending on when you’re planning on visiting this area, be sure to look at their specials. They usually have an all-you-can-eat crab boil one day, and then on Sunday, they break out their prime rib. Regardless of what you order, be sure to look at their wine, bourbon, and craft cocktails to find the perfect drink to pair with your meal! 

Harvest On Main

Last but certainly not least, we have Harvest On Main. This Southern restaurant is welcoming and warm and makes for the perfect date night. The interior of the restaurant feels like a large mountain cabin with rustic decor throughout. 

Harvest On Main’s menu offers a little taste of everything. If you want to start your meal with an appetizer, the Blue Ridge Sampler is the way to go. It comes with a cheese flatbread, hummus, pickled tomatoes, corn salad, and olive relish. 

As for the entrees, you can’t go wrong with their rosemary chicken breast, rainbow trout, or bang bang salmon. They have an extensive drink menu, too, if you and your partner enjoy a cocktail, wine, or local beer. Their rotating dessert menu has featured delectable treats like cinnamon bread pudding, citrus cheesecake, and gooey apple cobbler, so be sure to ask your server about their options while you’re there!
