Another excellent food stop! Italian, but with an elegant twist. The salads were absolutely perfect: fresh & tasty. The meatball sub was nice: toasted bread spread with pesto, then meatballs, cheese, and marinara. My wife loved her salmon laid on rice. Nice selection of beers: many local. Service was attentive, even sitting on the porch. A bit sunny out there: could get hot on a different day. Inside was dark, cool, and big; we didn't spend much time in there, though. read more

We recently had dinner at Twisted Tomato and had a wonderful experience. The restaurant has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that makes it a great place to unwind and enjoy a meal. Nani was our server, and she did an excellent job. She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we sat down. She checked on us at just the right times, made sure everything was taken care of, and helped make the evening feel easy and enjoyable. Between the great food, the comfortable atmosphere, and Nani's outstanding service, it was a very enjoyable dinner. Thank you, Nani, and the Twisted Tomato team -- we look forward to coming back. read more

Saturday lunch when visiting the area for the day. Ordered wedge salad and six buffalo wings, along with a beer. The restaurant was quite empty, so service was quick. Food was good, although given my selection not out of the ordinary. The kitchen is a long way from the balcony where I was, and the restaurant has 500 seats. So I'm not surprised that some previous reviews weren't happy when it was busy. Plenty of free parking, which can be an issue in this town. read more

Clean restaurant with many options on the menu, ranging from salads to steaks to pizzas and pasta. We are there with a group of 10+ people in a private dining area and had one server who was pretty efficient considering the size of our group. Overall, the restaurant was a great atmosphere with tall feelings, and everything was very clean and put together. Even the bathrooms were upscale and clean, which was impressive. I had the braised beef and veal tortellini. It was a good meal, but my dish was pretty oily and probably could've used a bit more seasoning since the taste was more bland than I would've expected. I really enjoyed the wedge salad and thought that it was crisp and refreshing. I also got to enjoy a couple bites of the supreme pizza and it was delicious! Glad I got to try a couple bites of the chicken fettuccine Alfredo, which was also well balanced not oily and the chicken was cooked well. I would definitely go back again and probably have a pizza since the majority of people at our table had different types of pizza and everyone was raving about how delicious they are. read more

Great lunch location, large outdoor deck overlooking blue ridge Ga. Classic City lager on tap was served cold. Server was extremely friendly. Many had their dogs with them so it is pet friendly. Ordered the bbq chicken pizza, which sounded really good on the menu, we will find out shortly! Pizza was very good , crispy crust and tasted great. Only disappointment was they were out of the Italian sandwich. read more

I'm not sure what the expectations others brought with their poor reviews of this restaurant, but we had nothing short of a spectacular experience, from the service to the food and the drinks. Our server was bubbly, attentive and gave great advice on selections. If you're a dirty martini person, the Dirty Blue is a MUST! It was our 16th anniversary dinner, and it was perfect. read more

Beautiful interior deisgn and esthictic to a high end feel in Blueridge, food was tasteful but lacking on meat in the dishes that supposed to have meat such as the hunters gnocchi which had a single sliver of sausage about the size and a small pepperoni slice. The lasagne had more meat but still not a lot, food was overall good and service was quick and attentive. Would recommend going and checking it out. menu prices at around $20-$30 read more

We went right towards the end of lunch, which happened to be perfect timing! We were fortunate enough to be able to take advantage of the lovely weather and sit at the outdoor bar. My fiancé had a local draft Pilsner and me and my pregnant self had a virgin mojito We both enjoyed our drinks. Next was our starter of the calamari fritti. It was yummy and the sauces that accompanied the dish were fantastic. The calamari was a bit chewy fit my taste, but overall it was good. Next were our main dishes. The pizza my fiancé ordered was by far the best dish. Perfect crust and super flavorful. I felt my pasta left something to be desired. It was a bit bland. So I added a generous portion of red pepper flakes and Parmesan. Overall we enjoyed the experience. Definitely a spot for a lunchtime pizza. I'm not sure that their other dishes are anything worth while though. read more

Twisted Tomato is a true hidden gem in Blue Ridge, delivering a polished dining experience that easily stands out in the area. Arrival & Ambiance: Set slightly off the main strip, the restaurant benefits from a calmer, more refined atmosphere--no crowds brushing past the windows and the welcome convenience of a dedicated parking lot. Located on the second floor, the space opens to a spacious outdoor seating area, while the interior strikes a modern, upscale tone with low lighting, ample seating, and a thoughtfully stocked bar. Several wine racks showcase an impressive selection and set the expectation for a well-curated menu. Service: We arrived early for a reservation for ten and were seated without hesitation. Despite the size of our party, service was seamless. Our server was prompt with drink orders, knowledgeable about the menu, and exceptionally patient with questions. Throughout the evening, he checked in regularly without hovering, and not once did we need to flag him down--attentive, professional service executed exactly as it should be. Appetizers: We shared several starters, including the Lamb Lollipops, Heirloom Tomato Caprese, Momma's Meatballs, and salads. The lamb was a standout--perfectly cooked with a delicate char and beautifully complemented by pesto. The Caprese featured unusually large tomato wedges, but any skepticism vanished after the first bite; the tomatoes and fresh mozzarella were excellent. While I didn't sample the meatballs themselves, the marinara was deeply rich and flavorful, setting the tone for what followed. Entrées: I ordered the Scallops with Potato Gnocchi, and the dish was outstanding from start to finish. The gnocchi was pillowy and precise, the scallops expertly cooked, and the pesto cream sauce tied everything together elegantly. My girlfriend chose the Chicken Parmesan, made with fresh spaghetti and the same stellar marinara--well-seasoned, balanced, and clearly prepared with care. I also sampled both the New York Strip and Ribeye (each cooked mid-rare). While both were excellent, the Ribeye had a richer flavor profile. The menu notes that steaks are dry-aged for 30-60 days, yet the usual "funk" associated with dry aging was absent--a welcome surprise for those who appreciate the depth of dry aging without its more aggressive notes. Desserts: Dessert was equally impressive. The Crème Brûlée was creamy and flavorful, served with fresh, ripe fruit; while the sugar crust was slightly thinner than expected, it was still well-executed. The Tiramisu was balanced and properly textured--no soggy ladyfingers here. The Affogato was the clear standout, with high-quality espresso poured over vanilla bean gelato, creating a simple yet memorable finish. Final Thoughts: For two guests--one appetizer, two entrées, dessert, and drinks--the total came to $130 after tax and a 20% tip. Given the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere, the value is more than fair. Twisted Tomato delivers a refined, consistently excellent dining experience and is absolutely worth seeking out. We'll be back on our next visit to Blue Ridge without hesitation. read more

So dark inside you can not see to even get to a table. We were seated and no one came to wait on us for at least 8-10 min. I flagged down a waitress that was oblivious... she said oh let me check and see - came back and said I can take your order.... at that point we just said, don't bother and left read more

Pretty patio. Weak food for too much money. I had the grilled shrimp pesto pasta. When it first arrived, the shrimp was so overcooked that it felt like I was chewing on a car tire. I pointed it out to our waitress Sofia, who was as sweet as she could be, and she took it back to have it fixed. When it returned, the shrimp was unchanged and just as overcooked. On top of that, the penne noodles were about as mushy and overcooked as mash potatoes, and the pesto sauce was not fresh or flavorful. I just left it be because Sofia was too kind and I was hungry. So, I reluctantly ate about half of the bowl, paid my whopping ~$25 for this extremely underwhelming dish, and went about my business. Service was great, but food and pricing were WEAK! read more

Ignore the bad reviews, genuinely the best food we've had in Blue Ridge. Service was amazing and the pizza was delish. We've been to their McCaysville location and can confirm this is just as good! I will say that we got salad and pizza, but it was spectacular. Very fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. Can't beat this place is downtown blue ridge! Must try. read more

For starters, it took 20 minutes to sit down because they told us they were booked when there was no one there. Finally, when we get seated, she takes 10 minutes to get our drinks. Then, she came back 20 minutes later with the wrong drink. When we order, she messed up the order and I just wanted a large pepperoni pizza. She gave me a small cheese pizza. When I asked for a box. It took 15 minutes. I went to the bathroom to go number 2 and saw her having a conversation with another waitress. It took me 8 minutes in the bathroom and she was still holding the pizza box and talking to her friend. We will NEVER go back. read more

My mom was visiting us, so we wanted to go out for a nice family dinner. We had seen the large sign for Twisted Tomato, and after seeing there were several locations, we decided to head here for dinner. They are dog friendly and kid friendly, which made it easy on us. We sat outside on the large patio deck, and there was plenty of room between the tables. Our server was funny and quick, and he made us laugh during our visit. We started off with the burrata, which are large chunks of tomato with a centerpiece of burrata surrounded by arugula salad and drizzled balsamic sauce. There was enough to split between four people. We ordered the quattro formaggio and the meat pizzas. They are wood fired 12 inch pizzas, and they came out fresh from the oven. There was more than enough pizza for three adults and a toddler, and my son loved chewing on the cheese that was on the cheese pizza. The pizzas tasted better than our favorite pizza place here in Jacksonville, and we had some leftovers to take home with us. If you are looking for a relaxing and delicious place to go while on vacation, I highly recommend this. read more

The wood-fired pizza crust was exactly what I would hope for. That as an appetizer paired with a steak for my entree... perfecto.

Must fix the squeaky pizza oven wheel .... Nails on a chalk board. Pizza was good. Overpriced in general.

Very good restaurant and the server we had was very nice. We got the gnocchi and the truffle garden pizza both were so good

This was a true mixed bag of hits and misses. Arrived when they opened on Saturday at noon and were first in line. Hostess never came up until about 12:05. We were seated. Beautiful spacious place that has a great ambiance. Unfortunately, they placed far more effort on the ambiance than the fundamentals. Here is a breakdown without any exaggeration: 1) Ordered soft drinks and were told they were out of Sprite, Dr Pepper and Diet Coke. 2) Ordered the beef carpaccio, caprese salad and meatballs. Server came back and said they were out of the beef carpaccio. I asked what the soup of the day was and was told "we don't have one yet". I ordered a small wedge salad. 3) Ordered entrees. No kids menu so only real off menu options they had for kid was small portion of spaghetti, buttered noodles and small fettuccine Alfredo. Also, ordered burger, Chicken Parmesan and Pepperoni Pizza. Both appetizers were good, fresh and tasty. The wedge was good but, seriously only had three small pieces of bacon. The pickled onion really dominated with a strong vinegar taste but, it was ok as it was fresh and chilled and plentiful. The pizza was average and the Chicken Parmesan was voted as pretty food. The truffle fries that came with the sandwich were barely warm and overcooked. I had the burger and it was pretty rough. My fries were also not warm and overcooked. They did cook it to order and it was cooked appropriately. The bun was absolutely burned and it amazes me that anyone in the kitchen could have decided that it was appropriate to send it out like that. I decided just to disassemble and eat the patty with the cheese separately. I asked for a slide tomato (surprisingly the burger does not come with one. The server brings it out and again, how that past basic competence, I'll never know. It was good once I cut the stem off. All in all, it was $127 (before tip) of hits and misses for three adults and two children 4 and under. I would have been disappointed if it was $60 based on what we experienced. However, I would have been fine with $200 if things were consistently good and appropriately cooked and their relatively small menu had a properly stocked kitchen. I'm not sure if I will give this a try. I didn't read the reviews until after the fact (I wish I had) as I saw a lot of truth and similarities in what was written by others. It's a shame to see this kind of financial investment lacking just the basic fundamentals. It should be an easy correction but, looks like what we experienced was not a one off based on the other reviews. Also, it's telling when management has not responded to any of these reviews. Lastly, I did not complain to management as my logic was if they don't really care that they are out of some many different things at opening time, then I doubt they will care about my opinion. read more

The service is great, Amber and Bobby are so awesome, the best food I have ever had.I got the porter house and it was cooked amazingly.

Upon entering the restaurant it was very nice, the table was adorned with a center light and fancy menus. Our waitress was very polite and attentive, BUT my wife and I both ordered the Chicken Alfredo, it was not good at all. I have actually made better myself with the sauce coming from a jar. You might say it was authentic so it tasted different. We have an authentic hole in the wall Italian restaurant in our small Home town that make a very good Chicken Alfredo. The chicken was inconsistent cooked with end portions being charred, there was plenty of noodles and enough sauce but we were unable to eat it. We left so much on our plate that our waitress looked shocked when we responded that we did not need to go boxes. Would not go back if it was free. read more

I got the gnocchi and algio E olio. Delicious Italian food. I would definitely come back here for a nice dinner

The service was slow though we were one of two tables seated at 4:00 p.m. when the restaurant re-opened for the evening. We had the blue cheese wedge - good and the Caesar salad- also good. A supreme pizza was shared. It was good but the crust was rather chewy. The restaurant was dark and wide open. The ambience wasn't anything special. read more

Made a reservation for 5:30, showed up 12 minutes early and hostess says you will need to wait until 5:30 I cannot seat you early even though they had empty tables. Ordered a pizza as an appetizer and put in our orders at the same time. Pizza arrived 45 minutes later. At 7 pm 1 of the people in our party went in and asked where our food was. An hour and half after arriving, no one knew and said oh we will bring it right out. 20 minutes later food arrived but the steak and sides were ice cold and steak arrived medium well not medium rare. Server noticed the steak was ice cold along with sides. Took it back to be re-fired, kitchen butterflied a filet mignon to cook it faster since we had now been there 2 hours. 2 1/2 hours after our arrival I went in to track down our server and pay our bill. No one offered an apology , a comp or anything. Oh I forgot we had no silverware and had to ask more than once for it and an extra plate. We will never go again and suggest unless you want a really long long evening of poor service, not great food and high prices you do not go either. read more
