    Our server, Benjamin, did a fantastic job welcoming us and highlighting the menu. It was pretty busy and yet our food came quickly and was paced well. Appreciated the mock tail menu and loved the comfort style southern food. Was absolutely worth the drive from Asheville before a show at the Flat Rock Playhouse.

    All the food on the menu looked delicious. I had a hard time selecting. I fondly decided on the trout. Great pick. The rest of our party had the rib eye and the meatloaf. Everything was amazing. We’ll be back for sure.

    Beautiful restaurant. Excellent and warm service. Delicious food. You know you love a place when you are planning return while you are still there. Fried chicken was very flavorful. “Meatloaf” was not traditional, but fantastic. Worth the drive from wherever you are.

    This was our first visit to this delightful restaurant. Sunday brunch was delicious, the shrimp and grits scrumptious and the ambiance makes it very special. Highly recommended.

    The best chicken and biscuits, I order these every time I go. Wine prices are reasonable, parking is easy, great large center bar if you don’t want a table. I have taken several guests here and everyone loves it. Ribs are awesome too.

    Service was excellent. Thanksgiving buffet was ok. POTATOES were the best part of the meal.
