We were out on the water all day, so the Twisted Oar was a great place to tie up to refuel before closing the afternoon out! This is a dock based restaurant located on Lake Lanier. It comfortable seats about 300 people and services a lot of the house boats moored nearby. This was a Sunday and there was a wonderful atmosphere with live music and although we had to push off, it looked like the clientele were just getting started. The food was well priced and well cooked. The beers were cold, which was all we could ask for. Our only complaint was the time it took to get service. The waitress we had was excellent, she just had a massive area to cover. I wouldn’t let this stop you from visiting.

One of the best cocktails I have every had. I can't remember the name of it but it was perfect. The views of the marina were nice and the staff was very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend the Salmon BLT and the fried fish sandwich! If they switched to hand-cut fries it would have been better. The fries were a little on the greasy side. But everything else was great!

A fun place to stop and eat while boating on Lake Lanier. Can be busy at times. Burgers, wings, pizza, tacos, etc. Service was good too. Indoor and outdoor seating. Casual dress okay.
