    Garlic knots... not really edible and so greasy
    Michelle G.

    The service was ok, no ambiance at all. The place doesn't look kept and the food was terrible!!!! We order simple, difficult to mess up food like spaghetti and eggplant Parmesan. It was so bad. We only tasted and couldn't eat. The waitress offered a box to take the full meal with us but that was not happening for us. This place needs a good chef that knows how to cook. We were so excited to eat by the lake, unfortunately the lake is no longer full since hurricane Helen.

    Went to get takeout and a drink while staying in the area. On a beautiful summer Saturday night, the restaurant was completely dead and it didn't take long to realize why. The manager/owner? was not at all friendly or hospitable. He watched the bartender make my husband's drink completely wrong, then told her afterwards that it was wrong. No offer to replace the drink nor to refund. Bartender claimed they're learning to make drinks "from reading a list". Ordered gluten free baked penne, which is described on the menu as "with mozzarella cheese" the way baked penne usually would be... nope. For over $20, I got a dish of very bland penne with nothing but plain tomato sauce plopped on top. No seasoning, no cheese, not "baked" in any sense of the word. Could've made it much better at home for about $2.

    Baked pasta sampler / pistachio crusted trout

    Food was great! We came here after hiking almost 7 miles and it was definitely worth it. We ordered the cheese dip for our appetizer and was very tasty. Then we split the pistachio trout and Baked Sampler which was amazing. Haley was our waitress and she was very sweet and so helpful. Could not beat the view of the outdoor tables. Would definitely go back again.

    Taking a day trip to lake lure and stopped in here on a whim, this place is amazing!! Brittany, our server, was sweet, kind, efficient, knowledgeable. The eggplant parmesan was bigger than my head! Definitely a must for coming down to this area!!!

    Food was delicious. Service was personable and friendly. Food came quickly, was made on premises. Great pimento cheese. Had the chicken BBQ pizza which was great. Ambiance was relaxing and romantic.

    Lasagna with meat sauce

    Good food, great service. Seating/environment was fine. A nice experience, truly. Nothing to necessarily rave about though.

    Purple haze (and the ring)
    Kyle T.

    Post proposal dinner (she said yes). I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Very clean and updated. Staff were very friendly and proactive. Beautiful view from outside looking at the mountains. I don't remember ordering garlic rolls, but we got some anyway. They are delicious, just be careful not to get any of the butter on your clothes. We split a purple haze, and it was awesome! I had chicken Alfredo, she had eggplant parmesan, both were delicious and big portions. We both took ours home for another meal. For dessert we split the cinnamon cheesecake ice cream, which was both huge and delectable! Everything was fairly priced as well. I would definitely eat here again.
