We’re the first to say you can get great food in Georgia’s bigger cities. Atlanta has a world-class dining scene, and there are tons of options for fine dining in Augusta, Columbus, and Savannah, too. However, skipping out on the small town restaurants in Georgia is a huge mistake. Brinson, Georgia is not a place many people have heard of. This small town is tucked away in the southwest corner of the state, 15 minutes away from Bainbridge, and pretty much in the middle of nowhere. With a population of just barely over 200, this is as rural as it gets, and you’ll find farmland, dirt roads galore, and a whole lot of peace and quiet in Brinson. One other thing you’ll find, though? Some darn good steaks. That’s because Pond House Restaurant in Brinson, GA is a hidden gem steakhouse hiding down a dirt road.

The Pond House looks like your typical rural restaurant, with a charming log cabin exterior that looks quite unsuspecting.

There's a great porch full of rocking chairs to sit at while waiting for a table.
Inside, you'll find a cozy atmosphere that's not overly fancy.

You don't have to worry about stuffiness or overly-formal airs here.
It feels more like eating at a friend's house than visiting a fine dining restaurant.

Chances are pretty good your friends don't make steaks this good, though!
