Our Story. Your Tradition.
An Atlanta legacy since 1932. A warm welcome on Lake Dow. Great steaks, Southern favorites, and memories made around the table.
A Tradition Worth Sharing
Pilgreen’s began in Atlanta in 1932, founded by master butcher Ira W. Pilgreen. Generations of guests have made its steaks, onion rings, and warm hospitality part of their own family traditions.
Today, that legacy continues on Lake Dow in McDonough. With a refreshed dining room, a welcoming bar, and space to celebrate, we’re carrying Pilgreen’s into its next chapter while honoring the food and friendships that brought us here.
Come for Certified Angus Beef steaks, seafood, Southern favorites, and Rip’s famous onion rings. Save room for dessert, and discover Chef George’s signature lumpia.
Whether it’s a weeknight dinner, a birthday, or a gathering with friends, there’s a place for you at our table.
