The food is incredible, the service was great, and the ambiance was nice. I ordered the salmon wasabi dish. It was paired with roasted carrots & a delicious sauce. I savored every bite, it's my favorite salmon dish to date. Next time we're in town, we will be back! read more

This is a great spot! The owner has her hand in every part of making this place successful. She greeted us at the host stand, helped plate meals, brought food to tables. The food was very good! But the star was the crab purses. Melt in your mouth. read more

What a lovely experience on a bachelorette weekend! Our waiter was super friendly and attentive and made sure the bride and her guests felt well taken care of. We had a large party of 11 and everything ordered something different - even so all the food came out at once and piping hot, no small feat. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and can't wait to come back individually. read more

This is our fourth visit to Wild Thyme, we always have had a very positive experience. We had the fried calamari and fried green tomatoes appetizer. Both were tasty. We ordered a couple of cocktails, a manhattan and a margarita. Both excellent. I had the special; rack of lamb and my wife had shrimp and scallops in puff pastry. Our server, Christine was very attentive and did a great job. I know we will be back in the future... read more

Wild Thyme Gourmet was recommended by a friend. The restaurant is located off the main street in a corner with both indoor and outdoor seating. My family had a late lunch one day during our recent visit to Highlands. We were seated immediately and greeted by friendly staff. We enjoyed the portobello burger with fresh fruit, the salmon blt with wild rice salad, a child's grilled salmon with fresh fruit and a child's grilled cheese with fresh fruit. All dishes were good. Wild Thyme Gourmet offers a diverse menu. read more

We loved everything about this place! Restaurant was nice and warm on a very cold day. Service was great and the food was amazing!

Our time in Highlands was short, so landing at Wild Thyme Gourmet was just wonderful. The environment is welcoming, and it is very apparent attention to detail is priority. Our server Jimmy truly is the absolute best hospitality person we have encountered. And, our livelihood is in the hospitality industry. The food.....extraordinary. Amazing wine selection. Our experience at Wild Thyme Gourmet was excellent, and we will return! read more

Excellent food with excellent service! Halibut well prepared & very fresh Dolma, our server, was well versed on menu & provided guidance in accordance with tastes. Atmosphere was calm & quiet allowing for a relaxed meal! Coconut cake was the best ever! read more

My husband and I dined for lunch here while visiting the area. It was a beautiful day and we were able to enjoy the lovely patio! I ordered a cocktail which was made perfectly. I had a salad with grilled chicken, and my husband ordered shrimp and fries. Both delicious. Our service was impeccable, and we highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Wrong hours and closed on Wednesday's! Keep in mind...need to update their hours because when you drive far enough for good food, you should not have to think twice about their hours especially when it says they are open read more

Great food, service, and ambiance! Had the trout and wife had the ravioli both were tasty. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Highlands read more

We had a delicious meal. We had the lamb & it was cooked perfectly & mixed drinks were very well prepared. We would definitely recommend this restaurant. The atmosphere was very nice as well. read more

Located right in the center of town this restaurant has become a Highlands institution. We stopped in for lunch on a busy Sunday and had to wait 10 minutes or so. Love that they have a dog friendly patio and bring water for your pup. We enjoyed the fish & chips, the goat cheese salad with chicken and my son got the kid's grilled cheese. All the food was delicious and service was knowledgeable and speedy. We also really appreciated their extensive wine and spirit selection... we both enjoyed well made martinis. A little pricey for lunch ($100 for the three of us, including two cocktails) but we're on vacation where money doesn't count, right? Certainly will be back! read more

Wife and I enjoyed lunch here on a Saturday visit to the Highlands. Black bean burger and wild rice was a hit with my wife. I had a wonderful fish and chips...yummy fries and really tasty fish with malt vinegar and tartar sauce...highly recommend. read more

This is a lovely restaurant on Highland's Main Street, tucked into a corner near Kilwen's. There is outdoor seating which you really should request if the weather is nice. The interior of the restaurant is contemporary and country-club casual. White tablecloths, flowers, and a candle grace your table. The menu is varied, with dishes ranging from chops to pasta to fish. I selected the halibut special, with a lemon beurre blanc sauce and capers. So delicious! The warm bread was a lovely accompaniment and the French martini was tasty and strong. Desserts were as delicious as the entrees . We selected the chocolate pate and the bread pudding. Perfect ending to a delightful meal. Service was professional and our server had a great sense of humor! Great place for a wonderful meal in Highlands! read more

Aside from the good food and service, the atmosphere is different but pleasing. I like it outside sitting near the little creek in the back.

This place was great! We had a reservation at 5:30pm for 3 and we were greeted immediately. We ordered an appetizer, 2 steaks and crab cakes and it all came out at a reasonable time and was delicious! The server was very nice and on top of everything. We will definitely come here again! read more

Their home made soups are so delicious! Along with all their other entrees. Service is always good and pleasant. read more

Stop in this place for a quick bite for lunch. Great food quality. My wife and I split a salmon BLT on a baguette. The bread was so fresh and the sandwich was just right. I took notes And will probably try to make this at home it was so good. The sandwich came with a side of wild rice which was quite tasty, but since we were splitting, I opted for a side of fries, which I think were twice fried and awesome. They have a cute outdoor area with several tables so we sat outside. The service was great and our server was very pleasant and quite professional. All our needs were met. Would definitely come back when in the area again. I realized after we ate I should have taken pictures but we're were hungry and it slipped My mind, sorry read more

We were disappointed with the service upon arrival. The hostess insisted on seating us in the corner of the bar, even though the bar was empty, and her tone felt curt -- we even noticed her being dismissive toward the bartender. Unfortunately, the food didn't redeem the experience; the shrimp fritter was poorly prepared and lacked flavor. Overall, the evening felt unwelcoming from start to finish. read more

Great service. Perfect place for lunch. Favorite by far was ginger chicken salad. Spring rolls were great as well as everything else we ordered. Prices were also very reasonable read more

We drove 2 hours to eat here! The lump crabcakes are hand formed and no fillers. They were perfect over arugula, and the sauce was just right. Fish and chips are always an easy choice, but they aren't overcooked, dry, or oil filled. The local Wagu beef burger was ahhhhmazing. The side dish was the star of the show. Wild rice and white rice, Sliced Almonds, red onions, celery, currants and a mandarin vinaigrette- beautiful and vibrant suprise!!! We will make the trip.back and save room for one of your homemade desserts!!! read more

One word-wow! The service started off wonderfully but quickly fell apart when our waiter's friends were seated. We didn't seem to see him again until check time. But the food, the food! My compliments to the kitchen. Each item at our table for 8 was perfectly cooked and seasoned. My husband had the lamb that he said he would dream of this dinner for a very long time. I had never had salmon so tender and moist We will be back for sure. read more

Stopped here for a nice lunch on a 2 day visit to Highlands NC and wasn't disappointed at all. A very cute and nicely decorated restaurant in and adorable little circular shopping plaza. I had the lunch Specials and they were amazing. The Crab Corn Chowder was so smooth and creamy with plenty of crab. Just delicious. The the Pecan Crusted Chicken Sandwich just blew me away! The wine tasting area was such a cool addition to this already gourmet restaurant. With a wide range of reds both light and bold I had a nice merlot. Just a delightful and delicious meal to start off a nice 2 day stay. read more

We had a great dining experience. Came on a Fri night (made a reservation) and were seated promptly at 6:00. The place was pretty hopping. We started with Lump Crab Fillo Purses ($16) and they were excellent.....my bride couldn't get enough of the sauce. My bride ordered the Salmon with Vidalia Onion Crust ($31) and enjoyed it. They had a Halibut on special ($42) that they described as "day boat" meaning it came fresh within the last 24 hours - it was excellent and very well prepared (and I loved the sides)! Service from James and the entire crew was outstanding! read more

Service with Beau was great. Gazpacho soup was really good and shrimp spring rolls good but only two. The Salmon BLT was ok salmon not seasoned and bacon hurt my eyes to find. The crab cakes were tiny and not very good. Don't recommend them at all. Overall B grade. read more

We had lunch here. Very pretty inside and they also had plenty of outdoor seating. We were shopping on Main Street Highlands and came across this place. We had the spicy bacon hamburger with fries and the salmon BLT with sweet potato chips. Both were very good. Fyi: The hamburger was not spicy. Our service was prompt and food came out fast. Tip: the booths are tight spaced read more

I like Wild Thyme in Highlands N.C because it is in the center of town with a great open air area with lots of umbrellas and is dog friendly in certain areas. Most of the restaurants in Highlands serve similar food and for some reason they all serve asparagus but wild Thyme has a bit more selection. The menu is more varied but the setting is the best. Throughout Highlands most all of the restaurants are on the expensive side with good but not exceptional food. I would put Wild Thyme as one of the more enjoyable experiences with well trained wait staff and nice dining choices. read more

Came here from Orlando on our way to Mountain Camp. So glad we found this place. My husband's burger with bacon was amazing! And the crab cakes - sooo good. The kids had more than the usual chicken tenders to choose from on the kid's menu. My son had the salmon and my daughter did get chicken tenders and she said they were super crunchy. read more

Great food and service! Great location in the middle of downtown. Would recommend if you are in the Highlands area.

We ate here tonight for our anniversary. The food(ravioli and fried green tomatoes) were good, but not outstanding. I had made reservations so no problem getting in. it was busy, but service was wonderful. our waiter was nice, but a little stiff. we ate inside. I had a view of the kitchen and they were busy, but efficient. there is a decent menu variety, but be prepared for a little pricey. I would go again, but I would not get the fried green tomatoes again. Magnolia's in Charleston will ruin you to try and find anybody else as good. read more
