New American Restaurants near Cashiers, NC

“Cashiers offers a number of good restaurants, though some may be closed in the off season. If you don't want to drive to Brevard Cashiers has options. The Ugly Dog pub is a great choice. Good food served fast. The place was not crowded in March. The manager made the rounds to check on us. My wife needed gluten free. They don't have GF bread ? but they offered to give her the sandwich on the plate, no bun. They have a full bar with two big screen TV's over the bar. If you are in the area and don't want a chain restaurant, it's a good option.“

“What a pleasure to dine there again after all these years! Ee were made to feel welcome and the food was delicious! I had the White Snapper special and it was wonderful. We will be back next summer when we can eat out back close to the lake...“

“one of our party ordered the Sirloin and commented that it might have been the best he's tasted. one of us had the Apricot Chicken that was tender and flavorful. another one of our party had a Wedge and Red Pepper bisque and also commented it was delicious. The service was outstanding. Would recommend to anyone.“

“We just ate at Madison's twice this past weekend (Breakfast and Dinner). Both were exceptional. On top of the fantastic food, the service was absolutely delightful. So many restaurants have lost "it" and Madisons hasn't. Wonderful, smiling, knowledgeable waiters and waitresses - really made both of our experiences stand out. Thank you!“

“Luke was our server at last night's delicious dining experience. He was seemingly playing host, runner and server so it did take time for our orders to be taken. We arrived shortly after 5 so had to enjoy appetizers and drinks for the hour until the kitchen opened at 6. Enjoyed probably the best homemade pecan pie I've ever had, with vanilla bean ice cream and a trout dip with crackers while we played cards with our daughter and sipped on tasty cocktails. Jason, the manager was welcoming and incredibly hospitable and took time to visit with several tables, making eye contact, engaging with patrons and making everyone feel at home. Stellar management because of the efficiency and running the front-of-house like a well oiled machine. Hummingbird lounge is a stellar setting complete with comfort, ambience and gives the feeling of a speakeasy and rustic upscale cabin. Comfy chairs and couches are strewn throughout with interesting artwork and artifacts as the fireplace crackled and the Christmas tree lights flickered. The food was topnotch and worth the high price tags ranging from $32-56 per entree. Luke was spread thin so we didn't see him as often as we would've liked, but the overall experience at Hummingbird lounge is decadent. Thank you Jason!“

“The 4118 Burger was good, Reuben Sandwich was good, but bread was grilled a bit too long, so it was dry and brittle. The charcuterie board was good as well as avocado salad. Great service. Patty Melt was good, too, but it's the same issue as Reuben with the bread.“

“Amazing experience! We made a reservation for a small (15 person) wedding reception lunch. They took great care of us and seated us away from anyone so we could really enjoy our time together. Service and food was great. The atmosphere is also amazing, the place is super cute and full of fun decorations!“

“Nice location, great restaurant and overall renovation but, I couldn’t get past the musty smell in the room. We had to keep the door and windows on the balcony open at all times, which was fine because the weather was so nice. But, if you closed all the doors, the smell was not pleasant.“

“Over-priced but good food. It was a 30 min wait to get seated. We had a soup, spring rolls and the Risotto shrimp fritters. 16$ for three fritters that didn’t taste of any shrimp is ridiculous! The soup was really good though. Having mentioned on the menu that they charge 4$ for sharing food feels like nickel and dime-ing and a super cheap thing to do.“

“The words ‘divine’, ‘delectable’, and ‘delirious’ don’t begin to describe the delicious experience of dining at the ugly dog. I got the ribeye dinner special with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The steak was ginormous, tender, and flavorful. It had a perfect sear without being overly charred and had a “melt in your mouth” buttery texture. A lot of restaurants in my opinion prepare asparagus either too raw or too soggy but my asparagus tonight had the perfect balance of tenderness and crunch. Both sides were seasoned to perfection and the minced garlic on the asparagus balanced out the “green vegetable” taste beautifully without overcompensating. The gravy on the mashed potatoes was really savory and took the otherwise average side to the next level and made every sin-filled calorie worth it. This restaurant is now my new go-to spot in the highlands area.“
