North Georgia BBQ & Oyster Shop

Got a to go order and maybe that was my mistake. Got a chopped chicken plate and a rib plate. Neither of which came with pickles and pickled onion like the menu says. I got potato salad and collard greens and Mac n cheese and potato salad with the respective plates. I came home with beans, slaw and double Mac n cheese. The Dahlonega location is consistently good and the meats were very good at least . So I'm willing to give this location a second chance, just check your to go order before you leave. Front counter service was very good, very friendly.

We had lunch at this restaurant today, and it was delicious. I had the smoked salmon BLT and a small bowl of Brunswick stew. Both were excellent. My husband had the bbq rib platter, and he enjoyed it very much. We were very impressed with the cleanliness of the restaurant and with the management and service. The manager was very attentive, and she made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend North Georgia BBQ and Oyster House in Gainesville. Kudos to the entire staff. The stew is to die for!!! Be sure to try this place.

We had the steamed shrimp for an appetizer! They were delicious! The brisket Philly and collard greens and Mac n cheese were yummy as well! We will definitely be back...Especially for that shrimp! It's hard to find good steamed shrimp away from the beach but I think we found our place!

Still dreaming about the brisket and mac & cheese from @northgabbqgainesville Seasoned perfectly, a little peppery and a little salty, they were absolutely decadent.

This new addition to downtown is a welcomed one that adds a new cuisine and spot to hang out that is much needed. The staff was all so kind and really welcomed us in. I can’t wait to go back to try the Raw Oysters, Smoked Salmon Salad, and the BBQuban.

This space has been transformed into a beautiful place for all diners to enjoy. The Pearl Nachos are delicious, and a great portion size to share.

The ambiance is so welcoming and inviting, and the staff provide warm, attentive service.

The ribs, smoked wings, mac n chz, and burgers were all incredible.

Prices are very reasonable, $3 for a kids grilled cheese with side.

You can tell these owners are on their third venture. It shows in the attention to details, cleanliness, and consideration for their guests.

The kitchen staff was on their game, and Chef David did a great job pulling together a new assortment of menu items in the expanded experience this location is providing. The best sauces (charred shallot cocktail and mingnonette, home-made chipotle bbq, Bama white, and killer korean bbq), the BEST banana pudding, and a great connection with North Georgia in the Mercier Orchard fried pies.

Gainesville, be ready for good bbq, and oysters, and give them a try! It will be worth the visit. Bring the kids, family, or even date night. Any reason will do.
