Slow service. Good potato casserole and frittata. The orange juice is to die for.
Over priced & not very good. I wasn’t able to eat any if the desserts. Tasted like they were bought from the grocery store. For two people the bill was $103.53!!!
Lunch on the Terrace. Don’t bother if you are a Vegan. There is precious little on the menu that you’d like except for a Mesclun Salad for $9 listed as an appetizer which is probably about 4 bites worth. I had a crab cake sandwich for $19 dollars which consisted of a barely above mediocre flavored crab cake; a toasted hamburger bun and half a plate of greasy potato chips. Everything needed salt and there was no salt on the table. I ate the crab cake (left the chips and the roll) and left still feeling hungry. Bottom line is it is VERY overpriced with average food and a gorgeous view. It’s a better place to go for a drink or a cup of coffee and enjoy the view but pass on the food which is nothing to write home about.
Simply the WORST. Avoid the Sunday Brunch. In most ways it was far inferior to the complimentary breakfast served at Hampton inn and similar establishments. There were at least 15 – 20 patrons CONTINUALLY standing around for (no-kidding) a minimum 10 minutes at a time waiting for servers to bring out buffet items that were empty. While waiting, some of us counted how many stations were simply empty – at one time it was over 50%!!! We did so while others summoned staff/waiters. Most couldn’t care a less as a mandatory tip of 20% was added to check anyway. Maybe doing us all a favor, as food was truly below average. Shameful for a Hotel of such stature to offer such a terrible dining option. Stay away. Drive into Asheville for a far better experience.
Friday night seafood buffet. Buffet was as expected for a nice big hotel. obviously they’re not near the ocean, but lower your expectations and they are a few good finds — wonderful pimento cheese and salads, good peel-your-own shrimp and amazing bread pudding. not necessarily worth the $35 but if you’re tired from a long road-trip, it will do.
Not groovy grove park. You invest a lot for this experience so it better be worth the price. alas, it’s not after several tries. yes, the view is wonderful. but servers are average to below, and well, the food matches up with the freebies at the Embassy Suites so why pay?
Blue Ridge mountains–sorry. The Friday seafood buffet was very good. A very good cross section of different seafood—crab, shrimp, mussels, baked fish, smoked fish, seafood salad (outstanding!) as well as roasted bacon wrapped turkey and roast pork. The desserts were a true inspiration. Make your own sundae was a hit with just abut everyone. Also carrot cake, cheese cake and numerous other items. It’s an experience, and one well worth taking. You’ll find something you like.27 May, 2011Breakfast review–we were seated quickly with an outstanding view of the Smokies. Had the buffet. Roast pork loin with au jus and then topped with two over easy eggs cooked by the omelet chef. The pork was juicy and perfect. The eggs were just right as well. Attentive table service. Biscuits , sausage gravy, cinnamon baked apples, grits and too much more to list. This is a large restaurant that feels intimate. We are going back for the Friday night seafood buffet and hope it will be as nice.
