The other night, I finally made it over to The Dug Out in Clarkesville, and let me just say—it did not disappoint!
I ordered the 2×2 Smash Burger, and wow… it was everything I hoped it would be. Juicy, flavorful, with those perfectly crispy edges that only a smash burger can deliver. Every bite was packed with flavor, and honestly, it might just be one of the best burgers I’ve had in North Georgia.
Of course, I couldn’t leave without trying the wings—and they were spot on. Perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, tender inside, and tossed in just the right amount of sauce. They struck that balance where you get flavor without being overwhelmed, and I could’ve easily gone back for another round.
What really made the experience stand out, though, was the staff. They were so friendly and welcoming, checking in often and making sure our drinks were always full. It felt like they genuinely cared that we were enjoying ourselves, which made the whole meal that much better.
If you’re ever in Clarkesville and looking for a laid-back spot with great food and even better service, I definitely recommend giving The Dug Out a try. Between the burger, the wings, and the warm atmosphere, it’s the kind of place you’ll want to go back to again and again.
