We came for my wife's birthday and really enjoyed it. We started with the Buffalo Chicken Dip…read moreappetizer and it was good, though the chips were supposed to be homemade but seemed slightly stale. We moved on to the Filet for dinner and it was well prepared; not an amazing filet (not as tender as I have had) but a good steak for the money. During our time we enjoyed a few cocktails that is one of the highlights of their establishment. We got there before live music started. Upstairs they had quite a line dancing event going on and we heard the stomping above us. There were a lot of folks there for line dancing, then, later, for the live music. Our waitress was good and checked on us often. Nothing but positive things to say about the overall experience.

The Reserve truly delivers an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food is consistently…read moredelicious. The drinks are equally impressive, with a well-curated cocktail list and bartenders who clearly know their craft. What really sets The Reserve apart is the atmosphere. It's stylish without being pretentious, lively without being overwhelming, and always welcoming. Whether you're planning a night out with friends, a date night, or just want to unwind after a long day, The Reserve is easily the best place in the area for nightlife. It combines quality, energy, and service in a way few places can.

Beautiful natural stone everywhere. Note that the website offers photos of each room and you can book the room you prefer. -The staff are wonderful: Brianna the bartender, Kat the "breakfast wizard", and all the front desk and other staff. Personable, always up for good conversation, really committed to excellent service. -Continental breakfast is next-level with treats from Stick Boy bakery. If you're lucky to be there on a day when there are lemon lavender scones - don't miss them. -A parking lot in downtown Boone! With a back door leading to it! -Walking distance to Mast Store, Appalachian Theatre of the High Country, App State campus, school logo shops, restaurants and breweries, and much more. -A rooftop bar with gorgeous views, also excellent just for sitting and sunning anytime. The indoor bar area is beautiful and comfortable as well. We have nothing but good things to say. It's a wonderful hotel and we feel welcomed like family there. HIGHLY recommended!

We stayed in one of their dog friendly room. It cost $50 extra a day to bring your dog. The room…read morewas near the back entrance. Which was nice to let her in and out quickly. The room walls are thin so we heard a lot of noise from the outside waking us up early in the morning. You also have to pay for parking at 25 a night but there was a lot of construction making it difficult to get our car out. I know not the hotels fault but definitely keep that in mind. They had really nice robes. They also had a sound machine in the room. We had a thing on the wall that would randomly flash at night and beep. We had issues with the bathroom. The door would not close all the way and We could not get hot water when we tried to shower late at night. We had to go to the front desk and they had to call maintenence which took a bit to work through the issue. Eventually they got the hot water back but an annoying time waster. They discount our stay at 10% for the issue. The breakfast was really nice full of local pastries. The staff was so nice and friendly. The lobby area and bar was super nice and had a cute vibe. The roof top is super pretty at nice with nice fire pits. The staff was super friendly. I would have rated a 4 star but the price was high plus the issues we had knocked it down a star.

There wasn't live entertainment, just karaoke, which is offered in many places downtown for no cover. It was also not posted which, from my experience in Atlanta, they always post that there is a cover outside. Just feels scummy. It's a very average bar that offers literally nothing special. There is no great view, the service is the same as any bar, it doesn't even have a nice decor; there is no reason to be charging an entrance fee. Enjoyed the visit but will not return.

First off, this place is way nicer than I deserve to be in. Low lights, super clean, and everybody looks like they have their life together. Meanwhile I'm just there for moral support and food. Olivia was behind the bar absolutely carrying the establishment, making drinks like a professional and not judging me for sitting there alone. She was super attentive, super attractive, the drinks were perfect, and you can tell the staff actually cares about what they're doing. Shout out the host Meisha she is tough also! I ordered food expecting "good for Kingsport," and got "actually really, really good." Everything came out fast, looked fancy, and tasted even better than it looked. No complaints at all. The vibe is perfect whether you're on a date, with friends, or just sitting there solo like me pretending you're important. Super relaxed but still upscale. 10/10 would recommend. Go sit at the bar and tip Olivia so I can have a nice birthday present.

First time there with a coworker. Cute little restaurant in a country club. We went for dinner and…read morethe food was disappointing for a 4 star rated restaurant. The calamari and ceviche for appetizers. My friend had the fettuccine Alfredo and I had the glaze salmon at first. The rice was extremely salty and the glaze on the salmon also made the saltiness pop. So I returned it after one bite and ordered the quesadillas which were much better. My friend's pasta also lacked flavor and was low on salt, complete opposite. She also didn't like the ceviche. Our waiter however was pleasant and accommodating.

Then he didn't do anything regarding my order for 25 minutes even though he literally walked past me 6-8 times. After a 25 minute wait without my order being taken or getting any service whatsoever, I walked out to find someplace that actually wanted to serve me and wanted my business. I will not ever go to The Corner again. There are tons of places on State Street and the surrounding area that will actually take an order, serve you and want your money. The Corner is not one of them.....go somewhere else. I will.

Coleslaw (good) baked beans good but warm, not hot) green beans (same thing and a baked potato (probably should have been baked for another hour. My friend got 1/2 slab of ribs. These were awful. Tough, stringy and they didn't taste good at all. Emily gave us a $10 credit and the kitchen took them off the menu for the night. One worker commented something to the effect that they weren't their regular ribs. Possible whoever does the food inventory decided to try a cheaper alternative and that was a huge mistake. Not sure I will ever be back...overall, just not that impressed at all.

She was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to go through each tasting with us in detail, allowing us to try whatever we wanted and answering all of our questions along the way.

We walked away with some mini bottles, but more importantly, we left with a wonderful experience and great memories. Thank you, Erica, for making our visit so enjoyable!

Hey friends! I went out with some new coworkers to this cool spot downtown…read more This spot is the rose that grew from concrete. Bristol is a rural town but certain areas are becoming more chic, such as this rooftop bar. I ordered a brown sugar old fashioned to start with. It was AMAZING. I would definitely recreate it at home, the flavors balance perfectly. For my entree, I had the chicken sandwich. The batter was perfectly crispy and seasoned well. I like that they use chicken thighs, which are juicy and makes for a delicious sandwich. Fries were okay, I wish they weren't steak fries. +Our server was friendly! She recommended great menu items. +Limited parking +Outdoor seating with a beautiful overlook of the city. Indoor seating as well. +Prices are a little above average. +Restaurant was clean and well stocked. I hope enjoy!

Bristol, Va. Thisis a wonderful, for many reasons, place to…read moredine after all the music is over. They seat you right away without a reservation and the view is awesome. Our drinks were extraordinary. The straws were huge, why? Because there was boba at the bottom of the glass for flavor bursts. It took exactly one hour and fifteen minutes to get our food after we had sat down. I'm sure there were good reasons for this but I don't care. I'm paying premium prices for this food and some effort should be made by management to ensure that the service is without hiccups. The salmon tacos were very good but the salmon was fried. The Shrimp & Grits bites were ok, they tasted nothing at all like shrimp or grits. They may as well have been potato balls. The spicy sauce was excellent. The Summer Melon Salad with burrata sounded pretty odd with the shaved ham, but it turned out to be delicious. The Fried Green Tomato's were excellent. The waitresses were friendly but seemed to be exhausted. Hopefully the overtime was voluntary and worth it.

Honestly, I have nothing bad to say about The Local! The food is delicious, the staff were super…read morefriendly and attentive, the prices weren't too bad, and the atmosphere is nice. They were pretty busy and it was just me and one other person so they sat us at the bar (after asking if it was okay). The bartender, despite having a full bar, was amazing! She was constantly checking in on us and my friend requested that she surprise her with a cocktail and the drink she made was spectacular! We both got the cheese curds for an appetizer and there were so many!!! They were also freaking amazing. The chipotle ranch that came with them wasn't my favorite but was still delish! My friend and I both got the creamy pesto Alfredo penne, I added chicken and she added steak. The serving size was perfect (just enough for a lil bit of leftovers) and it tasted so good. We ended the night with some of the Carolina beignets, which I somehow find myself getting every time I come here because they're so damn good!! They come with a cheerwine reduction on the side Also, got the prickly pear cocktail and it was pretty good! Not my favorite but they do have a super fun, excellent menu of cocktails.

My pizza was five stars and she enjoyed her tacos. You can't go wrong with Guinness. Unfortunately, although we asked our waiter to verify hers was gluten free, it does not seem that it was. We think the chips had gluten. My wife paid dearly with stomach cramps later that night. I would eat their pizza again but be careful if you are gluten sensitive or allergic.
