    Soup of the day
    Christy M.

    The soup was quite possibly the smallest serving of soup I've ever seen. My spoon could sit on the bottom and still could see the sides of the spoon. Like maybe 5 spoonfuls. It was laughable how small the serving was... had I known that I wouldn't have ordered it. However, the soup was the only thing taste wise I would choose to eat again. The kids chicken tenders were so hard the kids had trouble chewing them. The fries were hot and soft, so that was positive. The garlic aioli was basically mayo. The pickled onions on the sandwich tasted funky and I normally love pickled vegetables. Overall really disappointed I wasted my one stop through Asheville here...

    We were staying at the hotel on our drive from Indiana to Florida, and decided to have breakfast at this hotel restauarant. It was beautifully decorated and the staff were very friendly. The breakfast menu offered about a dozen of the standard breakfast options. I had a three egg vegetable and cheese omelet that came with potatoes and toast. My husband had classic eggs Benedict, with potatoes. Both dishes were plentiful and tasty. We would definitely eat here again if we return to the area.

    Carrot cake

    So easy to forget about this great restaurant tucked inside the Hilton Biltmore Park. Random I know but they have the best meatballs you've ever had either as appetizer or sandwich. Sorry they were gone before I could take pic. Trust me get them! Maybe it's the waygu. So tasty! Great drinks reasonably priced for hotel bar and restaurant. Waygu burgers excellent and some other great choices as well including salmon and Chicken pot pie that is very good. Enjoyed our carrot cake dessert. Staff were very friendly. Parking easy and convenient.

    Hard pass unless you are a chip fanatic like me. Got the chicken sandwich and burger, but the only thing that appealed to me were the house-made seasoned chips. Yup, I wouldn't buy anything else. Plus, this restaurant is located inside of a hotel sooo, yeah it's not a stand alone spot you can bring your appetite to.

    Mimosa
    Kayla P.

    Nice brunch spot. Not a huge menu for the non-egg eaters, but there are some options. I went with cheese grits, turkey sausage, and breakfast potatoes. Everything was yummy. The grits were cooked perfectly and seasoned so nicely. The turkey sausage was flavorful (not bland like some turkey sausage can be!) and the breakfast potatoes were seasoned lightly as well. My guy had the "Build Your Own Omelette" and pancakes. Nice portions and again they were spot on with the seasoning. My mimosa was big and not skimpy on the champagne. The location is inside a Hilton and kind of wide open next to the front desk, but parking was plentiful in the area. Our server was Laura and she was so friendly and gave us happy vibes.

    House salad with grilled salmon
    Jodi B.

    Had a work dinner here and it was a great setting. We had about a dozen people and they were very accommodating not seating anyone else in our area. The food was great but I thought pretty pricey for what you got. $25 for a salad with salmon and I've gotten bigger salads for half that price but this is in hotel and touristy area. Staff was ok, waiter made me and coworker feel like we were putting him out when I asked for ice when he refilled our water. They never came by while we ate and asked if we needed anything and then while we were trying to talk business after meal he kept hanging around asking about dessert. It's not a place I'll pick to go back to but worker ok for what we needed.

    Bacon Angus Cheeseburger
    Kalyna D.

    Beautiful place prices very from nicely affordable to little price-er depending on what ur ordering, but honestly the quality and taste is worth any price, I got the bacon angus burger BEST BURGER OF ALL TIME- Cheese and bun was hand made and the bacon tasted like smoked pork it was soooooo good and I got there chocolate fudge cake as well Everything there was amazing and my husbands desert and food were amazing as well. Besides the food the seats there were also very comfy and our waitress was super nice and friendly as well. Will be going anytime I'm in town again!

    Fried Chix Sandwich
    Jenna D.

    The restaurant is very good for a hotel restaurant. We went in at 8 on a Thursday night and it was quiet. The waitress and bartender were very nice. My dad and I got the trout. It was good, nicely simple, allowing the trout to take front and center. Sides were good as well. Husband had a fried chicken sandwich and after the first bite was extolling it's virtues. Wine was EXPENSIVE but the ones we had were very good. I do suggest you were long pants or bring a sweater/ sweatshirt. The a/c was on full and it was cold. Would I go here again, dunno. There are so many options in the area, I might look around first.

    Bacon cheddar Bacon Cheddar Black Angus Burger and sweet potato fries
    Heather P.

    Wow! This gem is tucked inside the Hilton and a delicious stop for dinner before a movie at the Biltmore Regal. We met friends and within minutes we were seated (we made reservations) and had menus. Highly recommend the pimento cheese and chips appetizer as well as the peanut butter pie for dessert! The bacon cheddar black angus burger came with a generous slice of delicious cheddar and the burger was tasty! Paired it with sweet potato fries- yum! The grilled chicken sandwich had a wonderful flavor and was on the tastiest bread! Paired with a delicious house salad and it was a meal that we'd definitely go back for! They have an extensive drink menu and while we had just water, we watched many interesting drinks come out!

    What a surprise! We aren't typically drawn to hotel restaurants and were surprised to find this in the bar of the Hilton. However, we really lucked out by going for a late Sunday lunch and were treated to a good solo musician just wrapping up their brunch service. Believe it or not, our burger was one of the best in town - and I don't say that lightly! The fries were plentiful (too many, actually) and very good. Check out this hotel bar/restaurant for a nice, casual meal.

    Broken yolk sandwich with potatoes.
    Davidson B.

    Fork Lore serves some excellent Southern-inspired cuisine that's let down slightly by its glacial service. I've been here twice now: once for breakfast and once for brunch. On the first occasion I tried their Broken Yolk sandwich with potatoes. The sandwich itself was a sublime example of an egg sandwich, with particular attention paid to the perfectly-cooked bacon. The potatoes were basically just steak fries which were good but needed some more seasoning. The second visit I tried their Pork Belly Club, which is basically a club sandwich with pork belly instead of bacon (yes I know bacon is pork belly but this was not smoked or cured and sliced much thicker). The pickled onions and Lusty Monk mustard did a lot of heavy lifting in cutting the richness of the sandwich, which is easily one of the best I've had anywhere in years. If I went on food alone, it would be pretty close to five stars but on both occasions the service, while pleasant, was extremely slow. Especially on the second visit during which the dining room was mostly empty, it took almost 45 minutes for our fairly uncomplicated order to reach our table. I'll definitely continue to come here, but I'll make sure I have plenty of extra time in my day when I do.

We came on a Tuesday afternoon after hitting a couple breweries in the Mills River area . The area that the taproom in is really beautiful with mature trees and it's a huge facility . We parked and walked inside and headed to the bar. I got a flight and my boyfriend got an IPA. I thought the beers were really good and I liked that there was some that you couldn't find anywhere else . We also ordered some duck fries that were so dang good . As we waited for our food , we went to do a self tour of the brewery and that was great to see the history of Sierra Nevada and the different rooms that the processing occurred in. After our food we cashed out and took the remainder of our beers to their outdoor area . Once you pass by their amphitheater you went down this trail towards a little river and we went farther still and there was this whole field of yard games and tables that you could sit and enjoy right next to the rushing river (French Broad River) . All the staff that we encountered with was very nice and knowledgeable. Just a really fun atmosphere to be in where even the staff looked like they were enjoying themselves . I would highly highly recommend stopping in!

They were definitely top notch no argument there. However, the ribeye was a big letdown. Not nearly as good as Texas Roadhouse or long horn, and at $45 I was expecting more. It also only came with 1 side, which was also sub par, extremely bland mashed potatoes, and I couldn't tell if they were from a box or not. Finishing on a strong note, we also had the wings. We tried the tiger and Tennessee dry rub wings, both were good, but I found the combination of dry rub wings with the tiger sauce as a dip to be quite good and very unique. Maybe not the best wings I have had, but definitely a nice change from the norm. All in all, a good place to grab a drink and maybe some wings or a snack, but not good for a meal.

We attended the Biltmore Park location! To start the night we grabbed a seat at the bar prior to our table being ready. Beautiful updates as I had previously been to the Italian restaurant it was before. I really like what they have done to the place. We started with a round of drinks at the bar, both mock tails and N/A beer. The mock tails were excellent! Bright and refreshing! Our dining experience started with Eric as our server. He had some great recommendations from the menu and explained everything to a T! We landed on the cheddar biscuits to start. The highlight on that plate was the whipped hot honey butter... it was fantastic. It had a pimento cheese taste. It took the biscuits up to another level. Truly you wouldn't know the biscuits didn't have gluten! Great texture and flavor alone. Rich with the butter and cheese flavor popping through! I think I could have eaten like 15 On to the 2 entrees, ricotta gnocchi for my lovely wife and grilled salmon for myself! Gnocchi was light and fluffy and had a perfect cheese mornay paired with it! My wife tasted, which resulted in a wonderful eye roll to show the beauty in the bite! The lobster just took it up a notch! I got a nibble and a nibble was all I was allowed, but it was a great bite! The Salmon was perfectly cooked and had some smokiness from the grill. It was on top of a bed of light quinoa, that was tossed with some cucumber and red onions! It was good on its own but I personally throughly enjoyed the nice taziki's sauce. It was light and creamy and had that nice yogurt flavor to enhance the dish. It was a nice, light well rounded dish! For dessert.... Oooh the chocolate tart! It was beautifully plated and beautifully executed! The dark chocolate stood out! It was nice and sweet but not overly sweet and had that dark chocolate bitterness. The salted caramel on top cut the bitterness from the chocolate! In all honesty the experience, the atmosphere, drinks, and food were top notch! I would recommend to everyone and anyone! I'd love to hear/see some not have any idea it's gluten free and see if they would notice! 10/10 will be back anytime we are in town!

    Outstanding meal…read more Admittedly, this was a drive for us from up at Autocamp as we visited the area, but this location had reservation availability and the original location did not. I'm hard-pressed to think that the original would outplay its progeny at least on that evening. We're quite keen to recreate the Kale Salad at home, as this has to rank as my second favorite of all time (Sis-in-law still reigns). Paired with the roasted beet salad (beet tempura, roasted beet, champagne vinegar, Three Graces bondon, candied cashew), it was quite a starting match. All of this was coupled with a delish NA sparkling rose (1 of 2 options), which was a nice touch as too many places are in gap mode when it comes to NA sparkling or wines. The fish special is pan-seared (it was grouper that evening) and it completely won the night. Paired with a good helping of asparagus with fennel puree and a radish salad, it hit the spot. Our other choice was the Ricotta Gnocchi com lobster. Twas rich, that's for sure, and it would have been work to eat all of it, but all the flavors worked well together. Dessert was a true treat: Pistachio Cake coupled with light as air mascarpone over a splendid compote of strawberries. We smartly only ordered one for the two of us, as we'd have massacred a second one before the authorities would have been able to stop us. The service team is plentiful: we counted six different people came and served or supported us. Not sure if that's Asheville-style full employment or we just seemed like people who needed a lot of help, but we got to the point we needed to track names on a pad of paper.
