Glen Ella is by far the best restaurant in this region of northeast Georgia. We dine there about once every couple of months. There have been times when it's just a bit off, but even then it outshines anything else within reasonable driving distance.
Last evening I had the Caesar salad followed by the salmon. Their salads are always fresh and their homemade dressings unfailingly tasty. They've changed the presentation of their salmon; it's now served with a soy ginger glaze over rice with sides of fresh vegetables. The change is welcome and incredibly delicious.
My husband ordered the special seafood bisque followed by a seafood pasta. They were too heavy for my taste, but he loved every bite. We both had to have their always sumptuous signature Key Lime pie. We were fortunate that they had it on the menu last night as it's generally only on the summer menu.
They seemed to have had a turnover in wait staff which isn't a bad thing. Everyone was on their toes and our server, Erin, was awesome. She was attentive, friendly, yet never intrusive. We hope she stays around.
