Okay, I have had a vacation house in Boone for over 23 years ..even one of my kids went to App…read moreState, and I really feel ashamed I have not noticed FARM over the thousands of times I have walked down King Street. Dori and I were looking for lunch one day while visiting Boone, and ended up in FARM, mainly due to visiting Boone Belles right next door. What was an accidental encounter turned in a fantastically spiritual experience. Like all my write ups, I am giving my opinion based on the type of restaurant, service level expectation and the price. The business model is to feed everyone who walks in whether you can pay for it or not. You can eat for free, pay $10 (or as much as you like), buy food tokens to leave in the token jar (passing on a meal) or work off your food in the kitchen or helping out... again as much or little as you want. The atmosphere is what your would expect in a cafeteria with folks servicing you off the line. The food is fresh farm to table and you only pay $10 for your meal, of which they have few options and basically tell what you can order. ... the food for the price was exceptional. There were folks from all walks of life from well off families to homeless folks off the street. The tables are tight and few in number, but not so much to be instructive. They are close enough to do one of my favorite things, meeting people and hearing their stories. So eat, meet and move on to make room for others. You really can miss it if you do not know it's there...look for it tucked away between Boone Belles and the Horton Hotel. In summary, if you are looking for a different dinner adventure, a good meal for services and price, and want to do some good in the world please check out the FARM Restaurant.

Hands down the best mocktail I've ever had was a blackberry mule - it was a bit spicy but not overpowering. Delicious. The tomato Gouda soup was rich and creamy, and the sourdough on the grilled cheese had that perfect crunch and they added thick bacon for me. The Habana plate was a great savory addition to the table. Definitely a standout spot downtown!

We were greeted promptly and were seated. Great menu selection for primarily Italian food. Something for everyone. We opted for two appetizers: the garlic knots and Caesar fries. The knots were 10/10. Slathered in butter and garlic with enough pooled butter to soak up with your knots. I was kiddish on the fries. Seemed like a strange marriage but they were really good. Loaded with parm cheese and bacon as well. 9/10 We decided to order an 18" Buffalo chicken pizza to things off. The pizza was really good but there was too much Buffalo sauce for our liking which turned the pizza into a knife and fork event. It was impossible to pick up and eat. There was plenty of chicken on it and lots of cheese as well. It came with optional bleu cheese crumbles which I highly recommend. My advise to you is to order less buffalo sauce. There was so much on ours it made it sloppy and soggy. Flavor was good. Execution needs improvement. Crust was excellent. Hand tossed and artisan. 8/10 for the excess sauce. Oh, also, the plates you get for the pizza are comically small. Our slices hung off 2 inches front and back. Made the knife and fork thing more difficult. If you get a larger pizza, request larger plates. You'll thank me later. We split a tiramisu for dessert and it was great. 10/10, great coffee flavor, creamy and not too sweet. Highly recommend. Both appetizer, 18" pizza and a tiramisu came to $55. We all had water. This place isn't cheap but the food is good and the so is the service and atmosphere. Make it a must when you get into Boone next time.

I tried a pumpkin beer while Steve went for an espresso martini--both were fantastic choices for a fall afternoon. Since portions are usually huge when traveling and we don't like carrying leftovers, we decided to share the Tuna Poke Power Bowl ($20). It came with quinoa and spring mix as the base, topped with edamame, cucumbers, guacamole, cabbage, crispy wontons, and fresh ahi tuna. It was flavorful and beautifully presented, though I honestly couldn't find much quinoa--it felt more like a salad than a grain bowl. Still, everything tasted fresh, the service was wonderful, and the prices were very reasonable. Definitely a great spot to stop if you're exploring Boone!

The Tuna Poke Nachos were incredible, almost comparable to the ones at Yard House, and the Flounder Sandwich was also a tasty choice. However, there were a couple of misses. The Smash Burger wasn't very flavorful and definitely needed a bit more sauce to bring it to life. I also grabbed a Caesar salad, but the croutons were a little weird and personally weren't my favorite. The service was standard and got the job done, but overall, it's a nice spot I'd visit again for the nachos alone.
