Drinks were served quickly, the espresso martini is wonderful! We asked for the cornbread and also got the toasted bread for appetizers. Food presentation is great. I highly recommend the New York strip, Chicken Schnitzel and salmon! Sides of carrots, asparagus and hasselback potatoes are delicious. Bottom line... you need to stop in. Wonderful atmosphere, great staff and fantastic food.

We were seated promptly, our waiter was friendly and attentive, and our drinks and appetizer came out quickly, so the evening started off on a positive note. Unfortunately, when it was time to order our entrees, we were told that several menu items were unavailable. I ended up having to choose something I normally wouldn't have ordered because so many of the options I wanted weren't available. My son enjoyed his meal, but my chicken gnocchi was very disappointing. It had almost no flavor, and the texture was so soft that it was more like mush than a pasta dish. To make matters worse, the air conditioning wasn't working, and while I understand equipment can fail, the dining room was quite warm despite several fans running. Our server was kind and did his best, but overall the experience didn't match what I would expect from a high-end restaurant. Spending nearly $200 on a birthday dinner that ended up feeling average at best was disappointing. I hope the restaurant can address the menu availability, food quality, and facility issues because I really wanted this to be a memorable celebration for my son for all the right reasons. I really want to come back and have a better experience.

There was five of us, and it came out altogether in another reasonable amount of time. One order was not complete when it came out and we had to wait until they made more chips to complete that order. The sandwiches were OK, but the grill sandwiches had a strange flavor to them. I think that the grill needed a cleaning. It's a very rustic atmosphere. The tables have people who have carved into them. The lighting was OK, but it could've been a little bit better. It wasn't loud but it was clean.

My husband got a burger and I got the Turkey, bacon, avocado, sandwich on wheat toast with home made kettle chips and a pickle! Yum!! I couldn't eat it all.

The burgers ('Miss Dessie', their bacon cheese burger) were fine, nothing memorable. They're generous with the sides of fries. The regular fries are thick and wavy, and could have used more crunch. Wife liked the sweet potato waffle fries, so much that he finished them off. Got a vanilla shake, which appeared to be a real ice cream based shake, and was really good. Unfortunately, they didn't have any lids, so it was served in a flimsy plastic lidless cup. Not so great to travel. Note that there does not appear to be any sign for the grill, it's just a counter in the golf shop. So pay attention to your GPS, and be forewarned that the driveway is one way, with the entrance being the first turn off of Greens View Road.

We tried Papa Ron's today and it was absolutely AMAZING!…read more There was not a single disappointment at our table. The food was a solid 10/10 from start to finish! Here's what we ordered: Blackened Alfredo - packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! Bang Bang Shrimp - my son gave it two thumbs up! Reuben Sandwich - my daughter loved it. French Dip - my husband said it was excellent. And for appetizers... Fried Pickles Fried Mushrooms Both were hot, fresh, and the perfect way to start the meal! If you're looking for a place with great food, generous portions, and something everyone in the family will enjoy, Papa Ron's is definitely worth the stop. We are not from around this area. I would drive back here just to eat! Waitress was very friendly and helpful. We didn't wait at all and was greeted as soon as we came in.

Didn't realize they had lunch weekdays and brunch on Saturdays. Every time we've gone, we're treated kindly with attentive service. Our most recent visit, Stephanie offered guidance on their sides, shared information on the brunch, and made sure we had a good experience. From the burgers to the shrimp Poboy at lunch, you also have steak and fresh fish options for dinner. The truffle fries are a favorite for our group as well as the pasta specials. If you have a little one, be sure to ask your server if they have any options available for children. They've been very kind to our granddaughter when she's gone along with us and we are grateful. While there is a small bar, it's quaint and cozy and actually holds more than you expect as they're seating near the kitchen. UPDATE: return the next day for the brunch. Had the Nashville hot chicken and waffles. Mic drop!

Positive - Except for the watery, chunky, bitter tasting remoulade sauce, the Po Boy was excellent…read more Large, flavorful shrimp, nice bun, and fries were good. It would have been one of the best ever if not for the remoulade, which appeared to be either homemade (poorly), spoiled, or both. Negatives - Arriving, waiting to be seated, a young man behind the bar (dark hair, beard), glanced our way but never acknowledged us. A young woman finally seated us, and took our drink orders. Friendly, but incompetent. My wife ordered the Club Sandwich, NO AVOCADO, NO TOMATO. I ordered the Po Boy. My wife then asked for some mayo on the side. Since the server wrote down nothing, I then had to repeat my order. Food arrives, my wife's sandwich is loaded down with avocado and tomato. And here's why we will NEVER return. I went to the restroom. It's early, 11:30, only 3 other tables were occupied. The restroom was disgustingly FILTHY. Long ago dried excrement on the bottom of the seat, no toilet paper, and to top it off, NO SOAP in the dispenser, or anywhere. Meaning, employees using that restroom were not sanitizing their hands. Given that, do you want to eat food that's been handled by them? Attractive restaurant, obviously a lot of money invested to renovate it, so unfortunate no one is properly running it.

The food at La Bella Pearl is thoughtfully created and beautifully executed, with French and Cajun influences woven into a farm-to-table, mountaintop dining experience. Every dish feels intentional without ever feeling fussy. The restaurant itself is set inside a beautiful old home, which makes the experience feel less like going out to a restaurant and more like being welcomed into Chef Tom's home for an incredible meal. The service and atmosphere are warm, relaxed, and unpretentious. You could absolutely dress up for a special date night, but you would feel just as comfortable coming in casually. They do not sell alcohol, but you are welcome to bring your own bottle, and the corkage fee is one of the lowest I have ever seen. La Bella Pearl is a true gem. From the moment you pull up, it feels as though you have stumbled upon the pearl inside an oyster, tucked away on the mountain and waiting to be discovered. Do not sleep on this place. It is easily one of the best dining values I have found anywhere, and the kind of restaurant you almost want to keep a secret.
