    Burger, cheese is cooked in the patty. Delicious.
    Char C.

    For quite some time I've been meaning to try this place. Now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long. Our server was ?Andrea? I think. She was very sweet. She took great care of us. They have a lovely tea menu. I had the African nectar tea and it had such a lovely fragrance and flavor. I'll definitely be looking for it to stock up at home. The West Coast wrap definitely tasted like California, with a southern twist. The crispy fried chicken and the Chipotle lime mayo were a flavor explosion. I loved it. When I wasn't looking, my hubby finished it off and I was a little peeved. To be fair, he ordered the smoked gouda grits as a side and I ate half of those when he offered me a tatse. He said his burger was great too. The food here is great. Not aberage, not good. Great. We even took an order of shrimp and grits home. We will definitely be back, and I can say I highly, enthusiastically recommend!

    Wow!! Not processed meat but a ribeye Philly cheese steak... I think it's made better here!

    I had the most amazing time at Lyncoya this afternoon! They have the most amazing service from their general Manager Amanda truly sets a precedence of welcoming kindness, she made sure to check in on me and her other patrons to ensure we were enjoying our meal and service ( I miss this!!) to our host Kayla and everyone involved this afternoon hugs all around for amazing food and exceptional service. I met wonderful patrons and I know I'll be there at least a few times a week!! Please keep up the great work! And the loving God fearing Christian's there are like a special treat!! Reminds you of what life is about.

    Friendly Staff, amazing Food!!! I don't think I've ever left disappointed! I usually like trying their Weekly Specials, but lately I've been enjoying their Cobb Salad with their Firecracker Chicken!

    I've been here 3 times and every time there service has been spectacular! Drinks come out fast and my glass was never empty! Food is always hot and fresh! Big portions for the price! There is normally a wait, but I always go at prime time. Friday and Saturday 7-8pm. They do close at 9pm. And the wait hasn't been longer than 20 mins. This is definitely a Gem in Hendersonville!

    The restaurant has a bit of a noisy atmosphere and is usually very busy. Also check the hours before you come because they aren't open every day. The parking lot is also a tight fit. Once seated inside when you get ready to order, be aware the staff is very strict about not letting virtually any dish be customized or altered in any way. It's as if they take it as an insult - but a lot of people have dietary alterations that they prefer (or need) to make. They don't care. I got the pot roast (just as it comes, of course!) and it was a satisfying portion. There is a whole carrot and a whole stick of celery on the plate. The pot roast itself comes on top of mashed potatoes and has a side of green beans.

    Stopped in for lunch today. Wait staff is exceptional! Best unsweetened iced tea and so happy they offered one to go. I tried the Reuben sandwich with fries. It was a huge sandwich. You can tell the corned beef is from scratch. I wanted to like it but it was too heavy on the clove for my liking. But that's on me - not them. If you're not like me I would recommend trying it!! Fries were ok. I will go back and try a different dish because the service and food quality is top notch! Don't sleep on this gem

    Sweata weatha sangria

    Laura was a fabulous waitress who was super fun and friendly. I wasn't sure what to order but she said the burger of the month was super good. She wasn't wrong. It was a pimento cheeseburger. The burger was perfectly cooked to a medium well. It was moist and had excellent flavor. The fries are super crispy and the perfect size. I had the sweata weatha sangria to drink and it was fabulous. It was packed with fruit and the apple cider gave it a nice undertone. The poutine fries were great. While the restaurant is technically "lakeside" it's on a main road so the lake view also comes with a view of the nearby gas station. The interior is quaint and comfy.

    Special today! Salmon, mashed potatoes, and asparagus!

    Does this place have a full bar?

    Not yet they are waiting on their liquor license. It is in the process. Just beer for now.

I've been here twice, and it's in a convenient spot with plenty of free parking nearby. Most recently, my husband and I stopped by for an early breakfast, and we had a quick and tasty meal! When I do dine at a First Watch, I usually aim to try something new since they have such a large menu. Their seasonal menu actually rotates every 6 weeks or so, and there's always something fun and fresh to try from their special selections. This time, I stuck to the healthier side of the menu, and went with the Tri-Athlete egg white omelette. This was light and very veggie-forward, which is just what I wanted for such an early meal. My husband ordered the Farmhouse Hash, which is a must-try for anyone who loves breakfast potatoes. Their multigrain toast is full of flavor, and one of my favorite things to dip in eggs or jam (or both!) I also love the AM Superfoods Bowl, although we didn't order that this time around. Our server was fast and friendly, and made sure we had plenty of coffee on hand throughout our meal. We'd definitely return to this location the next time we're in the area!!

    Tutti Da Gio was a recommended pizza stop, so we went for dinner…read more It's an order at the counter place and find a table. We should have chosen a larger table because the small one was very crowded if you each get a pizza. We started with the Caprese (Tomatoes & Mozzarella) immaculate mozzarella cheese and slices of fresh tomatoes drizzled in balsamic glaze. We requested more balsamic glaze because it was light. The fresh mozzarella was fantastic with the tomato and acidic balsamic glaze flavor that works so well. Just a great light perfect start and so fresh. Next the Diavola Pizza (Pepperoni) Fresh Mozzarella & Pepperoni over the immaculate tomato sauce. The wood fire crust is so good and just a nice pepperoni pizza. Fantastic Flavor. The Margherita Pizza (Cheese & Basil) Magnificent Pizza Bread Fermented for no less than 24 hours topped with simple tomato sauce covered with Mozzarella and Basil. Ours was more like a cheese pizza as there was hardly any basil. I like a lot of basil like in Italy and being an Italian Pizza I was hoping it would be very similar to Italy. This was more a cheese pizza. The pizza with the wood fired crust was still really good and I would just request more basil if you like a lot like me. Excellent Wood Fired Pizza and would definitely try the others in the menu. The service was good and would definitely return.

The staff did a great job explaining the menu and helping us understand the different dishes, which we really appreciated. One thing that surprised us was that it isn't a full-service restaurant--you order and pay first, then find a table while they bring out the food. We ordered a variety of pastas and pizzas so we could try a bit of everything. The pastas were the stars of the meal. All four pasta dishes were excellent, each with its own unique flavor, and we thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. Our pizzas came out a little later, and by then we were already full from the pasta. We ended up taking them home, and they were still delicious even when we ate them later. The only downside to our visit was the temperature inside the restaurant. I'm not sure if the air conditioning wasn't working properly, but it was quite warm inside, and by the end of lunch we were sweating, which made the experience a little less comfortable. Overall, the food was excellent, especially the pasta, and we'd definitely come back to try more of the menu. Hopefully, the temperature issue was just a one-time occurrence.
