23 Best American Restaurants near Cashiers

“Their brisket sandwich was surprisingly good. Most places that have brisket don't know how to cook it properly and it ends up rubbery, too fatty, or excessively smoky. When they offered a bbq sauce with it, that's the first thing that I thought. They must be offering a sauce because their brisket isn't good, but to my it actually was good.“

“Absolutely the best restaurant in Cashiers. Best service and amazing farm to table cuisine. Great wine selection and cocktails. My favorite cocktail there is the dirty martini with blue cheese olives. Husband likes the chicken livers appetizer, which is a pretty large portion. I love the soups. Fresh bread and salads with entrees. The seafood pasta is delicious with a lemon blanc sauce. We have never had a bad meal at The Orchard. Make sure to request Joe for service and always make a reservation. As the restaurant is well known for its great food and service so it gets booked pretty quickly. Joe is a true gem. Love love this place.“

“Great food and great service.“

“Great service and excellent food. Friendly and comfortable and has outside seating too for the pups!“

“absolutely wonderful Easter Sunday brunch today, the food was delicious and the service was the best, can't wait to come back 😄🔙“

“Our visit to this restaurant, was top notch, from beginning to the end. My friend, from SC (I am too), has been here a few times and so she decided to take me, here, for our lunch. We brought along her small pup, also. All of the employees are friendly, patient and jovial. We sat, in the outdoor area, to dine with the pup. It is spacious, well decorated and comfortable. The food was delicious and had large portions. We ordered a salad, the mushroom Swiss burger, sweet potato fries (yum),okra, and the fried green tomatoes. There was plenty of leftovers so I was able to make it my dinner, after a 4 hour drive back home. The experience was above and beyond what I was looking for and it was the ideal place for our visit. The employees even assisted me in finding a gift shop,nearby, that was another fun outing. Between the scenic location and the outstanding service, I would highly recommend this establishment.“

“Everything was great here. Starting with the service. No waiting for waitstaff; muliple vists by all the servers. Even the proprietor touched base several times. The drinks were well made with top shelf ingredients. The food was intriguing, chef used imaginative combinations. I had the 4th Street Burger and Street Corn (outstanding) and my wife had the 205 Wedge Salad (what a great surprise). The ambiance was just what my wife and i were looking for; and the setlist was killer too. We will be back. Awsome night. Thanks“

“The food is absolutely fantastic. I ordered the Chicken ala Frances. The chicken was tender, melt in your mouth. The rice had bits of craisins and nuts which went beautifully with the chicken. The veggie of the day was roasted brussel sprouts with a light sauce. I asked if they could please move to Maryland. The best food I've had in a restaurant in some time.“

“Good food, friendly service, dog friendly.“

“Great food and service! The band was awesome too. Oh we loved the putting green.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Lunch Experience at Prime in Highlands! Our lunch at Primary in Highlands, NC, was simply outstanding. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the host and restaurant manager, which set the tone for a wonderful meal. We started with perfectly cooked Oysters Rockefeller, followed by a fresh and flavorful green salad. My husband had the chimichurri marinated chicken sandwich, which was the special of the day, while I opted for the 14-ounce New York strip. Although I couldn’t finish the entire steak, it was perfect for sharing, and it was cooked to absolute perfection. The service was impeccable, attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere made for a lovely midday meal. We topped off the experience with a delicious slice of carrot cake, which was the perfect sweet ending. If you’re looking for an exceptional lunch in downtown Highlands, I highly recommend Primary for its fantastic food, atmosphere, and top-notch service“

“Everything was perfection 😀“

“5/5 Food was incredible. We tipped the waitress and the cook. We called the manager over just to say thank you. They were so kind. I can't tell you enough how good the food was. From the time we went in the door and by the time we went out. We were treated with the utmost respect. Thank you Mica's Restaurant and Pub. We will be back ♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“We had a Shame Dog, soup and a Rocket Cobb salad, all very tasty. The blu cheese dressing was especially good. Our server, Finley, was awesome. We were a little bummed as we couldn't watch the Tampa Bay Bucs game as they have a limited Directv subscription.“

“As a world traveler I have dined at some of the best restaurants in the world. Lakeside didn't disappoint. Steak, trout,, pear salad and spinach did not disappoint. Great wine list with fair prices. Reminded me of Mucky Duck on Sanibel.“

“We have been going to the FIX since the first night it opened. The food is excellent and never disappoints! The serving staff, the kitchen and Miss Erica are superb and so easy to love! This is not my first review of the FIX, but I just had to update my review!“

“Food and service were outstanding. Server was very attentive. The beet salad special was very good. Extensive wine list. As other reviews mentioned, it got very loud in the small dining room. There was a large group (~20) and they were literally shouting from one end of their table to the other. It was just annoying - thus the 3 stars for atmosphere. Next time, we’ll sit outside.“

“We enjoyed their salmon cakes immensely, that they make from their own poached salmon and then into patties. We served it with the aioli, on a bed of greens. It’s like getting a catered meal just for two. Love the people there. Rare breed.“

“We ate dinner on Wednesday, our first time. The service was Excellent! Kind, and very helpful! We definitely will be back!“

“We had an excellent dining experience, thanks to Casey’s outstanding service. He was incredibly attentive and made sure we felt well taken care of throughout the evening. For dinner, I enjoyed the pheasant, which was absolutely delicious, while my husband had the ribeye—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Our son ordered the sirloin, but it wasn’t quite to our liking. Casey handled it with professionalism and care, ensuring it was promptly corrected. His warm and accommodating nature truly elevated our experience, making our evening both enjoyable and memorable.“
