I've eaten here five or six times over the last two years. At both lunch and dinner I have found the service and the food to be outstanding.

Always the height of my Waynesville visit...the Creme Brulee is simply the best..order it naked, it doesn't need the beautiful caramel, chocolate or raspberry compote garnishes in my humble opinion, but you decide. Love this place!

Had an excellent lunch. The Sweet Onion blackberry BBQ sauce is to die for. One can get it on either chicken or ribs. My wife's salmon was exquisite. Our waitress, Ashley, was super be, and she actually went above and beyond telling us about the great entrées, and even a little about herself.
