    I went for Valentine's Day prix fix dinner with my hubs. The dining room is just off the lobby of the lovely hotel and has a nice setting with artwork with scenes of NC . It's a small dining room, holding probably a total of 50 guests or less. The servers were competent and professional. The cocktail menu was pleasant, but thedrinks took longer than should have to arrive. Our Caesar Salads were fresh with a yummy dressing. We both had the Ribeye steak with asparagus and loaded mashed potatoes. The sides were delicious; the steak had a nice flavor and cooked to our liking, but quality of the steak was low with much grizzle and fat. The highlight of the meal was dessert, recommended by our waiter. A cherry and biscuit shortcake with a chocolate drizzle. It was like the most delicious cherry pie but layered with the most delicious biscuits. I would go back just for this. Overall, a good evening.

    This was out second time visiting and we were NOT disappointed! First, commendable professionalism at the entrance and throughout service! 👏🏽 We had the fried green tomatoes and crab cakes for appetizers; my wife ordered the blackened salmon for her entree, with mac n cheese, and I tried the fish and grits. 🤤 Portions are always giving, and food was amazing!! 🤩 Music was just a bit loud and at times, hard to talk over. “However Comma” - the curated playlist gave us all the vibes, so we weren’t mad at all. 🎶 Service was absolutely on point (thank you Calissa!)! 🙏🏽 Definitely recommend! 🙌🏽
