Table service could have been better. It was quite slow. They only had 3 servers for inside and outside. One server appeared to be new and shadowing so only 2 net servers. Ber service, OTOH, was fast. Appalachian Wave drink was awesome. Buffalo flat bread was good as well. Great view of downtown and the Blue Ridge Railway. read more

Waitress chasity has rocks in her brains. We were a table of 6, got two appetizers, all water, etc. Took 50 mins just for her to bring out everyone's food except mine. What did I order? A HOUSE SALAD. One of the men at the table said "thank you" and she gladly went "mhm!!" and when I said thank you, she didnt even look at me and just walked away. Rudest service ive ever seen and all of the food was extremely mid. She barely spoke to the women at the table and really only talked to the men. Super awkward and uncomfortable. Not saying she wanted the mens attention but it was just not cool. read more

Situated in the Hampton Inn Blue Ridge hotel (see my review on that hot mess), Hook and Eye was a less-than-stellar experience. our server, a young woman, was absolutely devoid of any kindness or personality, and just going through the motions. some reviews stated that Hook and Eye had menu items for dogs, but that turned out not to be true. The restaurant itself was noisy and busy, and the seating was uncomfortable. but what I will say is I ordered the chicken ceasar wrap and it was actually really good. but serving Lays potato chips and calling them "tavern chips" is actually a major stretch. you could go a bit further and serve a more-creative starch on the side with sandwiches. overall, just kind of a meh experience when we were hoping for something better. also, note: Hampton Inn does NOT consider Hook and Eye diners as guests of their hotel, so you will not be allowed to park there. read more

ONLY REASON THIS IS A 2 STAR AND NOT A 1 STAR IS BECAUSE OF THE GREAT LIVE SINGER- he saved this restaurant honestly we went here because we ran out of other options & it was convention while staying at the Hampton Inn but it was absolutely not worth the price we paid for it. There is no way you can call this a restaurant, the menu has such odd choices and out of our 3 different meals we chose we all settled with "why do you eat? to fill the hole!" appetizer- the soft pretzel bites were good but you cant mess up a pretzel and for 12$ it was barley enough of an appetizer for 3 people bbq sandwich- pretty average just a little dry & definitely messy to eat (best part was the pickles) chicken caesar wrap- beyond average but the chicken taste like it was frozen & thrown in the microwave korean bbq wings- bare minimum for an average wing, definitely frozen DOESN'T COME WITH A SIDE (16$ for i'm not even joking 6 TINY wings, not even filling) the side salad is all leafs with a 3$ up-charge instead of kettle chips, YEP this place doesn't even have french fries desserts- DO NOT ORDER THE CHEESECAKE EGG ROLLS- they sound good but were the most disappointing, a fried egg-roll shell with a cold inside which doesn't even taste like cheesecake (we didn't even want to finish these they were that bad but we paid 10$ for these 2 SMALL egg-rolls ) the donut holes were pretty good but you cant mess up fried dough (12 tiny dough balls for 9$) overall, would not recommend unless you are out of options like we were :) p.s. would share pics but it was so disappointing it wasn't even a thought read more

Underwhelmed. It's a cool spot, not denying that. The food, not so much. I ordered the buffalo chicken flatbread and my husband ordered the burger. The flatbread only had tiny little bits of chicken and sparse at that. The end pieces had no chicken at all. My husband asked for his burger medium rare. It's clear this is a frozen patty and you don't get a choice. It wasn't dressed with any lettuce or tomato, onion, pickle etc. Definitely not worth the price. We were optimistic about the live music, but we're disappointed there as well. Maybe it's the acoustics but we barely hear them and this is not a big space. read more

Everything was bad. For starters, we all laughed when the nachos came out. I mean, that was something I would see at a baseball game. Especially for the nachos being $17, they were just Terrible! The tacos also came with the sad nacho chips, and the tortillas were too thick for the amount of filling. The Caesar salad was underdressed and the whenever I asked for extra dressing, the dressing wasn't even great. read more

Saw this online and noticed Wagyu Burgers & Tots. So my wife and I put it on our list to try for lunch. Place is a little hard to find. It's inside the Hampton Inn on floor 5. So it does have a good view of Blue Ridge... inside & outside seating. Service was pretty good, there was only one server for the restaurant at the time so under the circumstances it was good. For my first Wagyu burger it wasn't anything special. Burger comes as is without a temperature preference. The toppings were fresh though and bun was toasted well. Not having the tots was a negative though because it would have paired great. Instead it was coleslaw & potato salad. Overall pretty good, but imo not worth $16 for a Wagyu burger.

Staying in the hotel 30th wedding anniversary. First night with a late start so we thought we would stay close. Went up at 8:45 and they close at 10. Not very crowded . Sat at the bar with maybe 2 others for probably 6-8 minutes without a look. Moved to a table . After about 5 minutes stopped a server who said she'd be back with us shortly. Another guy who looks to maybe be a manager walks by without a look. 6-8 minutes later we leave. Nowhere else to eat in this town after 9.

For drinks, the Sweater Weather was the clear winner--well-balanced and thoughtfully crafted. The combination of Bulleit rye, La Pommiere Calvados, and sorghum created a smooth, seasonal cocktail with nice depth. The Properly Poached was decent but didn't quite impress in the same way; the Brugal Añejo, pear liqueur, dark wildflower honey, and pink salt made for an interesting profile, though it leaned a bit flat compared to the first cocktail. We started with the broiled sweet crab dip served fondue-style with pita chips, which was a great opener. It was warm, creamy, and rich, with good crab flavor that made it easy to keep going back for more. For entrées, the blackened mahi fish tacos were fresh and flavorful. The mango pico added a nice brightness, and the cilantro crema tied everything together nicely on the corn tortillas. The smash burger was another solid choice--juicy double patties with melted American cheese, crispy onion rings, house sauce, and house-made pickles that added a great tangy crunch. Service was ok waitress took a bit to bring the drinks and then the food took about 30+ minutes luckily we were entertained by talking to locals that we really weren't concerned. Overall, the restaurant delivers a pleasant upscale-casual dining experience with well-executed comfort favorites and creative cocktails. Definitely worth a visit, especially for the crab dip and the Sweater Weather cocktail and the fish tacos those were my overall favorites. Prices are mid range. Note that the restaurant as most restaurants in the Blue Ridge close early.

This is a very quaint little restaurant built in an old banking site. The ambience is very interesting. There was live music throughout our lunch, which made it even more interesting because we are a musical family! Our server was very friendly and took our order almost immediately. The wifey ordered the Reuben Sandwich and she loved it. I was in the mood for a good old American cheeseburger, and I was not disappointed at all.. Dust went with the chicken salad and by the looks of it, he demolished it! Elle had the chicken with the pasta and she enjoyed it too! Sam had the Kiddy's Chicken Finger meal. I don't know. We had a really good afternoon and yes, we will definitely be back when in the area. FELLOW YELPERS I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE SO DO GIVE IT A TRY!

Smaller place and it was busy which made us wait a little bit but I'm so glad that I did. Our…read moreserver was nice and the service was fast. We started with the Loaded Bavarian Pretzel Sticks. They came topped with creamy queso & pico. I got the pickled jalapenos on the side. They were good. I was having trouble deciding what I wanted to get and asked our waitress Wendy to help me pick. She recommended getting the Blackberry Smoke Burger, which came with bacon, fried onion and a blackberry dijon jam, and subbing the cheese out for habanero cheese and adding a little yellow deli mustard at the table. While this would not have been my pick, I went with it and I am so glad I did. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I will come back again I am sure to have this again. I got it with loaded potato salad, which was also good. All in all, the burger was one of the best I have had in a long time and would recommend you stop by to get one too.

They also have a kids menu that isn't printed, and the kiddos enjoyed the grilled cheese and nachos with queso. The queso could've been a little more melted, but that's my only feedback. Our server, Tracy, was great and took good care of us!
