First time visit passing through Sylva at end of long day. Wanted a quick bite and this was exactly…read morewhat we were looking for. We were able to sit at the creek, which was just lovely and relaxing. Our server arrived quickly, brought ice cold drinks just as quickly and was fantastic throughout our visit. Everything we ordered was delicious (tacos, burger, fries, collards). We don't live in Sylva but pass through regularly. We will absolutely be back soon!

This was not what I was expecting -- in the best way possible. I came here with a friend who had…read morevisited the previous location before they moved, and I can confidently say this experience delivered exactly what I needed. First, let's address the only downside: my burger was slightly overcooked. The server was very kind and attentive, but by the time she came back around to check on us, it felt a little late to send it back. I decided to remove the meat and enjoy the rest of the burger -- and surprisingly, it was still very good. My only hope for next time is that everything comes out cooked exactly as intended. Now for the positives -- because there are plenty. The wait time was excellent. We didn't have to wait for a table, and the food came out in a timely manner. That level of efficiency definitely adds to the overall experience. This restaurant is clearly operating at a high level. The location is great, the atmosphere is welcoming, and everything feels well-managed. You can tell there's pride behind what they're doing. We ordered The Goat Burger with Crispy Buttered Taters and started with the Fried Deviled Eggs. The fried deviled eggs were a standout. They had a salty base with a slight kick of heat, and the pickled onions brought in a sweet, tangy balance that elevated the dish. The salty-sweet combination worked beautifully together. A strong appetizer choice. As for The Goat Burger -- aside from being slightly overcooked -- the flavor was impressive. The patty was well seasoned, and the fried goat cheese paired with bacon created a rich, savory profile that complemented the crispy buttered taters perfectly. Everything worked cohesively on the plate. Even after removing the meat, the toppings and structure still delivered strong flavor. The food was absolutely worth the money. I left feeling full and satisfied without feeling overly heavy, which is always a plus. This is a place I will go back to again and again. I would confidently recommend it to others -- great location, good food, good people, and solid service. They also offer wine and beer for those who want to enjoy a drink with their meal. Overall, a very strong experience. I'm looking forward to coming back -- and next time, I'm hoping everything comes out cooked perfectly.

This restaurant is located in the basement of an old home (now a gift shop) and anyone visiting town may not see it since it's tucked away. Each time we visit Dillsboro we stop in for a sandwich. My husband's favorite sandwich is the Triple Treat and he enjoys their hot dog with sauerkraut. I had their cheesy chicken tortilla soup and a turkey sandwich. Everything on the menu is delicious. The servers in the restaurant are always friendly and checking to make sure we have everything. This is an order at the counter and food served at the table. I would recommend a stop in if you're looking for a place to grab a sandwich with a unique setting.

I've heard from so many people that it's beautiful inside the restaurant. But, I must say, the food here is worth the wait which is not long. The food is always fantastic. One day, I will get to go inside and be able to thank all the people that work there that put all the effort into taking such great care of my food! Shannon Goodson

Was a little confused at first when one side of this restaurant was called Front Street Takeout and…read morethe other side being called Quirky Birds Treehouse but after looking a little deeper I figured it out. One side is for pickup the other is the side down restaurant. Since we were dining in we ended up at the Quirky Bird side. They have and out door patio and a picnic table or 2. We ended up at the picnic table since we had our dogs with us. We order drinks I had a Coors. I also noticed when I went inside they had a full bar with a decent amount of bourbon. Was surprised to see Weller 12 there for such a small place. They had a couple sandwiches which I was interested in but went with the Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner! which is breaded chicken, Munster Cheese, avocado, arugula, Blueberry Compote, on a Ciabatta Bun. I will say the service was a bit slow with drink refills and getting us out our food. Though we understood because the train had arrived at the time we were there and there was a lot going on at the take out side and were where at the furthest table away. I will say when our food came out it was pretty good. My chicken sandwich was was lightly breaded and the Blueberry Compote really brought everything together. We even got take out from here later this week and the Chicken Casserole Wrap was also good.

I was there on a Friday and sat at the bar. They have a $3 PBR cans special on Fridays so I had…read moresome a couple of those. I ordered the pickle brined chicken sandwich. It normally comes with lettuce, tomato, pickle, and special sauce. I didn't want a mayonnaise based sauce....trying to cut some calories since I'm already having a deep fried sandwich! I instead got a smear of buffalo hot sauce which was a really good substitute. The sandwich was super crisp and spicy. Very good! My only gripe is that when I get a sandwich at a restaurant, I expect some type of side dish. It could be a small amount of fries or some potato chips but something. R&R has lots of good sides so they could offer some free fries but then encourage up charge sides for one of their delicious options like their truffle fries. Ive eaten there a few times and each time, very consistent, good food!! Bartender Chynna was very nice. Bar was getting busy but she handled everyone efficiently and friendly.

I absolutely LOVED seeing all of the memorabilia on the walls and our 20 year even asked about the music that was playing. We will definitely be back!!!

There were quite a few items on the menu that piqued my interest, but I settled on the Winner Winner chicken sandwich. What sold me was the blueberry compote topping and I did not regret my choice. Everyone else enjoyed their meals as well, including the toffee dessert. Service was friendly and reasonably fast. On the night we went, they were having an open mic night. While we enjoyed the music, it was loud enough that it was hard to have a conversation at the table. I'd love to come back.

I picked them off and ate the sandwich rather than complaining.

The ribs were well-cooked, the portions were generous, and the service was great. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the food arrived promptly. The mac and cheese, fries, and coleslaw were all enjoyable and complemented the meal well. That said, we're giving it 3 out of 5 stars. While the food was good, we felt the selection of sides was somewhat limited compared to other barbecue restaurants. Our biggest disappointment was the barbecue sauce. The sauces were very thin, and because of that, they didn't really cling to the ribs. We personally prefer a thicker, richer sauce that stays on the meat and adds more flavor with each bite. Despite those points, we still had a pleasant experience and can see why many people enjoy this spot. Good food, good service, and a solid barbecue stop if you're in the area.
