About The Preserve Smokehouse at Grand View Lodge

Justin Sutherland's Northern Soul at Grand View Lodge provides a great dining experience with flavorful dishes like Brisket burnt ends, Catfish, and Ribs. The ribs were tender and delicious, especially when dipped in BBQ sauce. Many customers have praised the food as mouthwateringly delicious, enjoying every bite from the cornbread to the brisket, burnt ends, mac n cheese, and potato salad. The service is noted to be excellent, with friendly and welcoming staff who go above and beyond for guests. The restaurant has a gorgeous view of the pristine golf course, making it an inviting place to dine. Portion sizes are generous, and the hush puppies are a must-try. The Soul burger with pimento cheese and bacon jam remains a favorite. While the food is well-made and seasoned, some guests felt it wasn't life-changing but still left everyone full and satisfied. There have been a few concerns about service during busy times, with some diners experiencing delays or cold food. However, the overall experience is positive, making it a solid choice for a family supper, with many eager to return. The restaurant will be remodeled in the winter, promising an even better experience in the future.
