Restaurants near Mountain View Recreation Center

The hostess/host of the restaurant were completely overwhelmed. The line to check in for reservations was long and it was unclear if guests should go to front of line to let the restaurant know the party was there for their reservation, as the time for the allotted reservation was past due to the long wait. we were sat for dinner 30 min late which created a problem to make our biltmore house tour . We had made adequate time between dinner and tour time, (90 minutes) but the late seating made dinner a rush instead of a pleasure. The host looked anxious and did not greet us or take the initiative to explain everyone was being seated late and they were running behind. Instead he avoided eye contact and customers were left standing in line worrying their reservation was not being honored or unsure if they should go to the front of the line try to check in to let them know their party was there. Bad first impression. Despite that .. our server, Carmen , was calm, relaxed and very pleasant. She was efficient, yet friendly and our food came out quickly and was delicious. She saved the day .

The perfect way to kick off Christmas! The restaurant's festive decorations set the mood beautifully. We enjoyed some time at the bar before dinner, which added to the experience. The food was outstanding—our table ordered the elk steak, venison, and red snapper, and every dish was a hit. Fine dining is a rare treat for us, so when we splurge, we want it to feel special. This meal did not disappoint - it was truly a memorable evening!

We had a very pleasant evening at the Embers restaurant. Really enjoyed the food and it wasn't too busy. Service was good and it was generally not noisy. The restaurant had a very impressive Christmas tree in the corner and a real log fire! Breakfast was good also.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars on “service”, because our server, Lindsey, was *phenomenal*!! At first I was kind of internally laughing at how often she called us “friends” in her initial greeting… but by the time we left, we truly felt like friends! Lindsey is genuine & efficient. Two of the leading qualities you want in your team members!

Great anniversary dinner! Excellent food and drinks with a chill environment
