After hitting the ball more times than I want to admit too at Apple Valley Golf Course we decided…read moreto drive down the mountain to Lake Lure to celebrate or for some to drown their sorrows and have a few cocktails and beers at El Lago. This is a spacious restaurant but unfortunately there were very few customers today so we were able to grab a seat at the small bar in the back of the restaurant straight away from the entrance they also have a large patio for outdoor seating. The staff here was very friendly and eager to grant our every wish, the draft beers are large and cold and lucky for me they serve Dos Equis Amber on draft which is one of my favorites to start before switching over to a top shelf Margarita (Don Julio) which are the same price as the house margaritas $16.50. The staff set us up with warm tortillas and salsa and introduced us to the "salsa bar" which had a number of different salsas and with different levels of heat so pick your poison and chase it with the drink of your choice. The restaurant appeared clean but although they weren't busy there were still bus bins filled with dirty dishes sitting around which I thought was odd. All in all we had a great experiences the pours were generous but it's not cheap. We decided not to eat here and our tap was still well over one hundred dollars without gratitude for the four of us - it's definitely a place I'd returned to for the margaritas...

I've tried Good Hot Fish, some of the other oyster houses and the po-boys at Sunny Point, but Crab du Jour is my fave, when it comes to catfish. Everyone is cordial and accommodating here. The sweet potatoes could use a little soul food mama help, but otherwise, everything I've had here has been delicious, from the clams, mussels, shrimp, sausage, corn and potatoes. Selfishly, I want the crawfish season to last longer, but I don't know the choreography of the rain dances to extend that season, so here we are with frozen IQFs.

(2/5 Stars)…read more Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing from start to finish. The service was fair, but the food took a very long time to arrive. When it finally did, the seafood didn't seem particularly fresh, and the catfish was overcooked to the point of being burnt. To the restaurant's credit, they did offer a discount after the issue was brought to their attention, which I appreciated. However, the quality of the meal simply wasn't what I expected. One thing that also stood out was the feedback box near the cashier. It was so overloaded with comment cards that it honestly made me wonder whether the feedback is ever reviewed or acted upon. If customer comments are being collected, there should be a visible effort to address the concerns people are taking the time to write down. I hope this was just an off day, but between the long wait, poor food quality, and the impression that customer feedback may not be taken seriously, I don't see myself returning.

He knew his menu backwards and forwards and was able to make suggestions that were the best tasting and presented items I have dined on in this town or for that matter any of the major cities I travel from Manhattan to Miami. Avery went out of his way to insure the Gluten Free member of our party was accommodated, asking his manager to bring a molten lava gluten free cake from deep freeze for him to offer. The menu is eclectic and truly delightful ~ from burgers that you can barely get your hands around let alone your mouth to some of the most unique and flavorful fresh Japanese rolls. Dd I mention the soups, salads intriguing appetizers and small bites? I will be back since there are so many things I want to try & dining there is affordable and with employees like Avery really enjoyable. PS ~. Thanks for 7 days a week!

Osaka Sushi & Steakhouse is absolutely beautiful inside! The atmosphere honestly feels like…read moresomething you'd expect to find in Charlotte or Asheville rather than our little corner of Rutherford County. They did a fantastic job with the space, and it definitely gives you more of an upscale dining experience when you walk in. Unfortunately, the prices were a big disappointment for us. As much as I love the idea of coming back and doing the full hibachi experience with the food cooked in front of us, I don't think we'll ever make it that far. My husband and I ate at a regular booth--no hibachi show--and our meal for just the two of us came to around $75. We both ordered fairly basic teriyaki steak meals, so the total was honestly shocking. It's a gorgeous restaurant with a great concept, and I really wanted to love it, but $75 for two people to have a relatively simple dinner is just too steep for us. I can only imagine what the bill would look like if we brought the whole family!

Not much flavor and it was hard to eat. Mango kept falling off-wouldn't order it again. For $37, I'd say the meal was average at best. Maybe the rolls are better at the restaurant.
