Cute spot with water views. We got off the freeway for lunch and stumbled upon LO Bistro. The hostess wasn’t friendly however our waitress was very sweet and attentive.

We were on a Wives Weekend Retreat at a beautiful house in Eatonton. We went to brunch after we checked out. The service was acceptable upon entry. There was no special effort made to be welcoming. Our reservation was honored, and we were seated in a room with several other tables. Our 16-person reservation was split up. We asked if we could move tables to accomplish all sitting together, and we were allowed to do so. The food was good. I only heard one complaint from our party. Our server was not personable but did a good job serving us. He was sure to keep a process going that worked for him with such a large party, and he consistently made us aware of that process which I liked. Other patrons would stop and compliment us on our retreat (matching shirts). Everyone was nice and respectful.

The people, the food and the atmosphere are everything a restaurant should be. Our waitress, the bartender and the support staff seem to enjoy working there with smiles on their face. We will return soon! The food was excellent. The plank Salmon and shrimp Po boy is delicious!

The food was good! My brother had and really enjoyed his shrimp and grits. My family shared fried pickles and calamari – I really enjoyed both.

Kristina was an exceptional waitress. She is worth her weight in gold. She made excellent recommendations and went above and beyond creating our dessert herself with the most beautiful design in caramel on the plate, it looked like sacred geometry so cute! She seriously was like the best. The live music was on point tonight and all of our food was delicious. What an amazing atmosphere. We will be back!

We chose Oconee Bistro for our son’s wedding rehearsal dinner and had +40 guests. The private dinning room was quaint and perfectly sized for our party!

Very nice Staff, this time my birthday happened to fall during the Masters. The restaurant was not taking any more names because they were already full. My mother was able to talk to the manager and he let us eat since I had already been turned away at the Ritz-Carlton from Gabby’s being rented out for the night. This was very sweet of the manager to do not to mention I had an amazing time I always love coming here every time I visit my mother.

Hosted my son’s wedding rehearsal dinner here and it was wonderful! Had about 30 friends and family members and the team at Lake Oconee Bistro was amazing! From pre-event logistics to day of set up, technology options, and the event itself, everything ran smoothly. Food was hot, on time, and delicious! What they said they would provide they still went above and beyond! Huge thank you to Gary, Kayla and Rylie – thank you all SO much for making everything perfect for our very special day!

This is a great place in the heart of the Lake Oconee area. The owner was great and accommodating. We were there on a Saturday night and the place was hopping. Service was great especially for our party of 12 and the fact that they were very busy. We had a lot of different appetizers and entrees, and everyone was very pleased with their respective orders. We will definitely be back when we are back in the area. I also want to try the Florida locations.
