We were a large party (5 adults 4 kids) arriving early on a Sunday afternoon (just about noon.) We were seated, served drinks, and then proceeded to wait close to 75 minutes for our food to arrive. The patio where we were, was not terribly busy, and lunch items (sandwiches) were ordered. I cant fault the servers unless they lost our ticket, so the blame must fall on a kitchen that has no clue how to prepare food. Other tables were seated and served while we sat - hungry. Anytime you are served SunChips as a side item... eat someplace else. While it may not have the same ambiance, I can get a footlong turkey sub, soda, and a full bag chips for the same price in under 5 minutes and save myself 2 hours of my life. We wont be coming back.

Ive eaten here quite a few times since moving to Dahlonega, and it has always been great food and service. The meal we had last night though raised the bar! Beginning with creamy orange salad dressing on the delightfully fresh garden salad all the way through the Grilled Rainbow Trout, every aspect of the meal was just fabulous! The trout was to die for- moist and so flavorful. It was an excellent meal and excellent service and very well worth the price! Had a great time!!

It was our first time in downtown Dahlonega with no idea where to eat. I searched and found great reviews on Corkscrew Café, so we took a chance and were not disappointed!! As a matter of fact, we loved everything about our experience, from the incredibly delicious tapas and creative menu choices to the wonderful, friendly service to the charming ambiance. Everyone made us feel so welcome, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Were going back very soon and cannot wait!!!

Relaxing atmosphere. Great food, music & service! While listening to wonderful live acoustic guitar & vocals, I enjoyed a smoked salmon appetizer - prepared with cheese, served hot... Absolutely delicious! I couldnt decide on a dinner selection, so the sever suggested the Tapas menu which was just right. Scallops were perfectly seared, nicely tender. Raspberry creme brulee... Heavenly ending to a lovely dinner!! Ill back soon...

Great food, with casual and friendly atmosphere. The is well balanced and offers something for every palette. The wine list is compact but full of good choices that complement the menu. The staff is freindly and execute both in the front and the back of the house very well. I highly reccomend their dining with a twist. Check out the jail underneath for a taste of Dahlonega history.

On the recommendation of a friend, we had dinner at Corkscrew Cafe on a Sunday evening after a day of hiking in North Georgia. What a treat the meal was. The chef was accommodating to my food restrictions (no dairy or gluten), and the food was fantastic: fresh ingredients, clever flavor combinations, ample portions but thankfully not jumbo-sized. Ill definitely be returning.

We have been there perhaps 6 times over 8 years. The service is always chaotic & slow not because the wait staff are bad but because the owner doesnt seem to know how to systemize a restaurant. The food goes from mediocre to good depending on the dish and dont be surprised if your chosen dish turns out to be sold-out 20 minutes after you order it!

The best dining experience Ive had in Dahlonega! A beautiful fall evening on 10/2/16 seated on their artistically decorated outdoor patio, together with delicious food (especially the Sriracha Chicken Dip with naan bread!), a friendly, efficient server, and a talented guitarist made for a wonderful evening! Ill definitely return!

I was not impressed by the prices of their food. You get a lot of food for the price on some menu items, but there are some items that were not worth the price. Some things on the menu were a little bit beyond creative. I think they should lighten things up on the menu as well as consider portion sizes for the price.

My husband and I went here for our anniversary and it was absolutely delicious. Great food, great wine, wonderful service. Since then this is my go to place when I get out on my own to enjoy an appetizer and a glass of wine. The pesto butter they bring out with the bread is insane! So delicious!

Horrible. Made reservations for our anniversary. I was told we would be on "the balcony." There is no balcony. The food was no where near worth the price charged. Not even close. The only reason I paid is because it was our anniversary, and I was trying to salvage the evening.

Food is excellent, but expensive for this town. Service is friendly and helpful, but atmosphere (at least inside) is definitely lacking (there really is none). Bottom line: If a good meal is more important to you than any other factor, this is the place.

My friends enjoyed the fish . . . . . The pork chop that I ordered was horrible. Id suggest that they should not attempt to bread it. The breading was burnt and the seasoning and sauce was very UN-tasty.

So fantastic! We had tapas and were really pleased. The Ahi tuna was so good. Our server, Brittany was knowledgeable and gave excellent service. We cant wait to come back and try other menu items.

Weve been for brunch and, being a breakfast connoisseur, I must admit I was impressed. Nice atmosphere and great experience all around. Well be back for lunch...and, of course, brunch.

This was an incredible little spot. Food was great and the service was awesome. Would definitely recommend the chicken sandwich! (Add a fried egg to make it a brunch plate)

The food was great, but the service left something to be desired. After an initial mix-up with our order, it felt like our server was avoiding us the rest of the night.

The filet mignon is wonderful. Same goes for the crab cakes. We make sure to get them when ever we go. The atmosphere is great. Very good service and great management.

The waiter was our chef...he was amazing. Wasnt sure what we wanted and he made sure we were happy with what we ordered. The grilled bistro tender was to die for!
