    Hands down the best pizza in town! Seafood is always fantastic as well with a very friendly atmosphere.

    Delectable key lime pie

    I had the Baja shrimp tacos and my boyfriend ordered the blackened mahi. It was dusted with seasoning instead of being served with a crust. We were discussing his sandwich when the owner came by and apologized for how it was prepared. He took it off the bill and gave us a slice of heavenly key lime pie. Yay for responsive owners! Thank you

    Drove through downtown Marion on my way back from hiking tonight (Sunday night) and found this gem of a restaurant! I sat outside on their patio and had wonderful service! I asked about local favorites on the menu and the Oyster Poe Boy was recommended. She mentioned they may almost be out of oysters and recommended a combo of oysters and shrimp. I'm so thankful she did, it was amazing! Had the house special, Limoncello Martini too!

    We are in town just for the night and while we were recommended to try a different location, this menu (go to their website), seemed more what we were looking for. In the heart of Marion off of Main Street, this place is a gem. The staff welcomes you as if you are one of the regulars (we got to watch them greet a regular customer and there was no difference). We had Casey as our server and Kelly made special appearances at our table. Both of them were quite lovely and provided additional recommendations and local facts. Their Yelp doesn't have many pictures, their food is worth the visit. As a native Marylander I get extremely skeptical when a restaurant this far from the coast places "Maryland Crab Cakes" on their menu. I tried them and they were perfectly moist, not much filler, and were a wonderful substitute to the ones I find back home. Try this place and tell them Dawn & Paris sent you. You will not be disappointed.

    Food was good but the younger girl behind the bar could care less. Poor service on a not so busy Saturday.

    We have been coming to Lake Lure for three years now and we have come to Highlands every time! Each…read morevisit has been in a new location. This year they were forced to move out of Chimney Rock Village because the half of the town was wiped out by Hurricane Helene. I was very excited to come support them through this tragedy because their food is simply amazing! I ordered the prime rib and it was fantastic. We had a large party and ever stated how good their meals were. If you like upscale dining, this is your place in Lake Lure. Don't let the outside of this restaurant fool you. Their new location is nice. They revamped the space and the outside patio is adorable. The inside was pleasant and comfortable. Our waiter was multitasking as a waiter, food runner and bartender. So he was attentive as best he could. He did take the time to talk over menu items and even create a custom cocktail for my friend. He was awesome! There was some confusion about our reservation and our table was given to another party. It was unfortunate and did sour my experience. With that said I will always support this place as it is an amazing restaurant that I want to stay in business!

    Absolutely top-tier food! Don't be fooled by the unassuming signage and location: they just lend a…read morehole-in-the-wall, hidden treasure vibe to this lovely place. My husband and I came here for an anniversary dinner and were blown away by everything we ordered, especially the Korean Short Ribs, Fish and Chips, and Mango glazed Wings. The Calamari and Fried Green Tomatoes were also good, and though they were out of the beer I ordered, our excellent and personable server, Katie, suggested a similar one that may have been even more what I was craving! We hope to be back next time we're in the area, and will send anyone else their way. (Just a note: the restaurant is actually named "The Highlands Reserve Kitchen and Bar," not "Preserve.")
