The Twisted Oar

We came for the first time around 1pm on a Thursday and was surprised to see how busy they were. Drinks were good but slow at coming out. There was a separate drink menu that I happened to notice online and asked the server about besides the few items listed on the menu. There is also a beer menu. Server was friendly and didn’t rush us to order and allowed us to enjoy our cocktails. The grouper fingers are a bit small to be considered a “shareable” and pricey for the amount. They were delicious though. The fish and chips were also great but we think someone double seasoned the onion straws cause they very salty. The peanut pie is good but seems store bought. The funnel cake fries were amazing. Lots of seating~covered & uncovered with lots of big screen TVs. Bathrooms nice & clean. Lots of ducks in the area & the patio is dog friendly

This place never fails!! The vibe is electric and everyone is there to have a great time!!

The bar area is like one huge party. If you’re looking for a place to let loose, this is your place.

Food was great, we had the burger with fries, and the Ruben sandwich w/potato salad. Both meals were cooked perfectly.

Drinks we had the Bob Marley and a Mai Tai. Both were potent and prepared just right! Quality stuff .

What stood out to me was Jamie. We opted to sit at the bar since we were hungry and didn’t want to wait for a table. Jamie was working and she was a delight. The bar was slammed and this girl did not show any signs of distress, frustration, or anger about it at all. She smiled at her customers, she smiled making the drinks, she was dancing, and singing. Her energy was electric and refreshing to see when you’re at a busy bar. She’s the type of person you want running your business.

We hope Jamie gets praise for her hard work and we will be Saturday regulars now just because of Jamie.

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!

Very laid back restaurant, the food was good, the pizza is a must here! Had an issue with my food but they took care of it. I loved sitting outside with the lake views. Pet friendly🐶 FYI they’re ducks everywhere😊
