We are a relaxed Southern eatery serving refined comfort cuisine to the Classic City. The Place’s menu is built upon a collection of family recipes, many of which have been passed down over the years and reworked to have a modern twist. Named after our grandfather’s car dealership where we spent much of our time growing up and lovingly dubbed “The Place,” we hope that this restaurant serves as a relaxed gathering place for students, their families, university faculty and locals alike. Both graduates of The University of Georgia, we are thrilled to be back in Athens contributing to this town’s great culinary landscape.

The Last Resort Grill serves southwestern-inspired southern cuisine in beautiful Athens, Georgia. We chose the symbol of the vidalia onion in celebration of our southern roots. From our open grill, flames can be seen as our chefs prepare menus inspired by southern ingredients with our own unique twist. We use traditional methods like open fire, grilling, brining, pickling and preserving. The Last Resort Grill has a long standing commitment to serving our local community the highest level of quality food and service but it is in the relationships with our guests and suppliers that truly distinguish our restaurant.
