    Spinach salad with fried oysters

    The food is outstanding. We ate here with friends and between us had several dishes. The food is fresh and filled with flavor. We especially enjoyed the heirloom tomato salad. The service was outstanding.

    Tomato salad. Huge plate

    Decent spot for seafood. I enjoyed the mussels, raw oysters, and tomato salad. I wasn't a big fan of the fried crab claws though. Definitely get the key lime pie for dessert. Service was excellent and prices were good. They can also handle large groups which was what we were looking for.

    Prime NY Strip with truffle pomme frites and poppyseed coleslaw. Winner!

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Que Sera. My wife thought the Shrimp Scampi was good. I had the Prime NY Strip with truffle pomme frites and poppyseed coleslaw. Each individually was excellent, but all three together was outstanding. I definitely recommend Que Sera. Also, the apple turnover a la mode was tasty. It was deep fried. Yummy!

    Consistently good food at a reasonable tariff. Service can be a bit hit or miss though. If you're a known local you're golden, but visitors seem to receive a slightly cold shoulder. That aside, I never come to Black Mountain without a stop here.

    Very unexpected and very good. We were driving from Charlotte to Highlands and stopped for dinner. Everything was excellent: we got oysters, martinis, dinner specials of veal and grouper. Everything was on point!

    I love love loved my experience here! We had a Valentine's weekend date night here and it was perfect. The food was amazing, our server Joe was attentive and friendly, and the vibe of the restaurant was so relaxed and intimate.

    Delicious food with attention to detail in every bite that was made. Original dishes and a welcoming staff

    Bread service with seasoned butter

    Fine dining in a rustic atmosphere. Loved our visit here, but like other posts, it was not without flaws. Want to know what made it special, our server QUINCIE (yes, I have her permission to use her name). She just made us feel like we were the most important table of the night. So when my son's steak came out way overcooked from his choice of medium rare, she told us before we discovered it and offered options. Have trouble deciding on wine or beer, she offered to let my wife taste samples before she chose. Need help choosing an entree? She asked questions of our taste before answering. What is we enjoy? Fried Oysters - crisp and delicious Oyster on toast - another solid hit. Fried Oyster salad - fried oyster was AMAZING , however the salad and dressing not so much. Redfish - really complex flavors and really delicious. Snapper with Brussel Sprouts - perfect DF and GF dish. New Orleans Bread Pudding - OUTSTANDING. Parking is free and nearby on the street or in free lots. Service, as I mentioned, was fantastic. What went wrong? A few over cooked dishes, food took a long time to come out even though we were well passed the rush. A busboy slammed a water bottle on our table and walked away. It really is nit picking to point this out and I did not hesitate to give it five stars. However, if you are a nit picker and these things bother you then beware.

    The food at Que Sera is good, as is the service. The entrees seem to be a bit overpriced for the location and ambiance.

    Over the top expensive. The lack of pricing on their menu should have been a clue. It was tasty, just felt deceived.

    Thoroughly enjoyed my brunch here. Loved the covered and heated outdoor patio so we could bring our…read morepup. Service was very good. Didn't see the inside. Had the breakfast sandwich with veggie sausage and for the side, I had the gumbo. The gumbo was very good. Certainly not the best I've had but I enjoyed it. Hearty and had a kick. The sandwich was also very good. The gluten free bun was decent and the veggie patties were basically like your store bought veggie sausages (think Morningstar). My biggest issue was I ordered over easy and the eggs were basically fried. My wife got a Benedict and the poached eggs were also very over cooked. If all you serve is breakfast and lunch, you need to know how to cook eggs. The beignets we ordered were very good. Not cafe du monde (NOLA) or Huey's (Savannah) good, but a solid attempt. My other complaint is they were out of plant based milk. The server said they usually stock almond milk but ran out. First, if it's so popular that you run out, order more. Second, if you ran out unexpectedly because you always have enough, then go out and buy more since it's obviously popular. It was 10:30 on Sunday. You literally just opened which means you ran out last night. Go to the supermarket on your way in (or ask a server to stop on their way in) and buy more. It's not like it's the middle of the shift and you ran out. Sorry, but a pet peeve of mine is when a restaurant runs out of something that is easily purchased a block away at a supermarket or convenience store. Anyway, I would come back. They need to do better with their egg cooking but the meal was otherwise very good.

    The service was really good. Knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly. We had our dog and sat in an…read moreenclosed, heated, outdoor patio. The club sandwich is about as good as any we have ever tried. The bacon is cooked perfectly, the turkey is high quality, the bread is fresh. I would say something was a bit overly sweet which may have been the bacon but I wasn't sure. Also, the bread was good but maybe a bit too dry for my tastes. All in though, a remarkable sandwich. Well done, Mayfel's! The gumbo was full of meats and tasty. I would suggest order, $3 upcharge, but well worth it. We got crab cakes on the salad which were also terrific. Limited to no filler, no breading, and cooked to perfection. We received two small crab cakes for the $8 charge which we felt was well worth it. The salad was good too. This is a place to go if you are interested in cajun - e.g. gumbo, etouffee, jumbalaya, po' boy, and so on. Outside of cajun there are limited options - e.g. burger, sandwiches, salad.

Even after going to New Orleans- I have to say this is the best Cajun Food I have ever had! We were able to get the bbq shrimp and rice, the Cajun pasta, garlic mashed potatoes, seafood gumbo and the pecan pie. Starting with the bbq shrimp- the sauce was so aromatic, spicy and savory and delicious. It was such a well tasting dish! The Cajun pasta had the best sauce I have ever had in a pasta (and I just recently come back from Italy) along with the perfect blacked chicken. Seafood gumbo blew me away with the flavor and spice, everything in it was so well blended together. The mashed potatoes were a perfect addition and balanced out the meal. The pecan pie was to die for, freshly made and perfect in every bite The ambience was even better, we got to see a live jazz band play and they did a stellar job in creating the vibe and adding to the already warm and homey aesthetic. Don't miss your chance to come here if you're in charlo

    My date and I thought this would be a good seafood spot to try, but honestly, it didn't live up to…read morethe hype. The biggest issue for us was the lack of seasoning. For my entrée, I ordered the blackened catfish with mashed potatoes and andouille sausage. The fish was pretty bland--I could taste the Cajun spice, but there wasn't much depth of flavor beyond that. The mashed potatoes, surprisingly, were the highlight--well-seasoned and delicious. The sausage was just okay, nothing special. For an appetizer, we got the Cajun popcorn (crawfish), and that was actually really good--well-seasoned and something we definitely enjoyed. I also had the New Orleans Iced Tea, but it had too much ice and ended up tasting watered down. My date didn't care much for their meal either and the lack of seasoning was bland too (even though I forgot exactly what they ordered), which says a lot about the overall experience. One thing to note: parking is rough, but they do offer valet. The valet attendant working Saturday night was very kind and did a great job handling everything on his own. There are definitely better seafood spots out there. This one just didn't hit the mark for us.
