We all started with Espresso Martinis and Spritz (Apreol and Hugo) all of which were served surprisingly quickly for craft cocktails and were delicious! We shared the Whipped Pimento Cheese started which you DO NOT wan to miss and then all enjoyed an array of dishes including the fish & chips, the vegetable bowl, and the burger. Highly recommend The Ruffed Grouse for both indoor seating by the cozy fireplace and outdoor in the sun with music. Can't wait to come back!

We both had beans on the side which had nice chunks of pork in there. Very tasty. It wasn't really crowded so we got in and out quickly. The decor of the place is upscale bbq, very comfy and clean.

LEGIT SMOKEHOUSE !!!…read more About as mountainesque of a restaurant as you are going to find in the Smoky Mountains. Big gravel parking lot (do not spin out your tires). Two ways to enter - straight up stairs or multi level stairs, each depending on your knee strength - optional wheel chair accessible entrance at the front with a single handicap parking space. Upon entry, the scent of bbq smacked me right in the face. Greeted by two staff members and the bbq pit master. Not expecting a craft beer bar inside but it had a big brew selection on tap with cocktails and wine too. Ordered three full slab of bbq ribs with cole slaw and shoe string onions for $34.00, thought it was pricey until I saw the plate coming toward me by the server with two half slabs (see pic). The sheer girth and weight of the ribs were worthy of the price point. Bit into the first half slab and at the same time got a whiff of the sticky charred meat. Holy S*** it was fall off the bone moist with a nice smoky sauce, which brought an immeditate tear of joy to my left eye. I put some sweet sauce on my slab and onto my onions for added bliss. I have to commend them for the flavorful coleslaw with a light tang of vinegar. Lately, I have been getting bland coleslaw at restaurants but took a leap of faith here and was rewarded handsomely. The gender neutral ADA compliant bathroom was clean with a rustic theme. Dark wood walls with an oval mirror hovering above the wall mounted modern sink. Little gift shop at the entry door slinging Highlands Smokehouse items. Wonderful experience here and would recommend it highly to anyone that loves bbq in North Carolina.

Quaint Quality Italian in the mountains! We were very…read moreimpressed with the quality of food and excellent service we received at Magliocca's tonight. The Arancini appetizer was the best I've ever had. Served on top of a pesto sauce with a little side salad, it was the perfect appetizer for two. The bread service was so fresh and delicious, and we sopped up every bit of that pesto sauce with the bread. My husband ordered the snapper francaise special and I got the tortellini with pancetta. Portions were plentiful, and the flavors were exceptional. Only drawback to this quaint restaurant is there's no alcohol service. They're happy to cork your wine and serve it to you for a small fee. We were very impressed and can't wait to return!

I figured it's been here for so long, it's got to be fairly good because it's still here. We walked in for lunch and it was probably 80% Mexican customers, so wouldn't that be a prime indication of good Mexican fare? Chips and salsa was served promptly and they were warm but the salsa was mild. They had a good Lunch menu, average lunch $8.95. We ordered a beef Chili Relleno and Beef Enchilada with rice, and a Burrito with rice. For such a large Mexican clientele, I would have thought the food would have been spicy, but far from it. I would consider it very bland. The ground beef was super fine, like a meat sauce, and I prefer chunky. The meals were priced very affordable, but it needs kicking up a lot.
