We’ve eaten here three times in last two weeks. It’s the closest restaurant to our home and we love the atmosphere here. Greg and Josie have been our servers and both are friendly and knowledgeable. We love the station burger and wedge salad but we also love shrimp and grits and the recent bourbon chicken special.

Great staff and the service was really quick. There was really good live music when we came on New Year’s Eve! Not even packed at all, and the food is so amazing. Would definitely recommend to anybody in the Lake Toxaway area!

We picked up an order tonight, and our order was wrong. We ordered burgers with nothing on them and got burgers fully loaded. I know mistakes happen when busy, but thought you should know.

This restaurant has very attentive staff but uninspiring food. We ordered the filet mignon, meatloaf, shrimp tacos and an assortment of appetizers. All of the food was under-seasoned and very bland. The owner's wife was our server and was very attentive and helpful. Their grand-daughter was an added joy to our experience. Great location but the food needs improving. Not much competition in the area.

Absolutely amazing! Food, service, atmosphere! Will come back to the area just for the food. Will be coming back again tonight because of how good dinner was yesterday! Try the shrimp app!

We found this spot from a Google search while staying at an AirBNB at Toxaway Falls which is only about a mile away. We went for brunch on Sunday and it was perfect for what we wanted. Only a few folks dining at that time we visited but service was still a bit slow. But no need to be in a hurry while enjoying this quaint spot. I had the eggs benedict with pork belly and it was great. Also enjoyed a couple bloody mary's. The grounds around the restaurant are spacious and we enjoyed walking around after lunch and across the street to get some pictures of the lake. There are large rocking chairs out front also which would be great to have a drink before dinner. The restaurant itself has a low ceiling warm log cabin feel which is cozy. My wife and I will definitely try to stop by for dinner on our next trip up. What a great find just a few minutes off the main road.

Food was great but selections were limited due to being busier than normal. Can't fault them for running short when business picks up unexpectedly. We loved the decor and the service was excellent despite the number of people there.

If you like to be surrounded by dusty taxidermy and dusty windowsills and enjoy cold pieces of waffle and overcooked under seasoned chicken get the chicken and waffles. If you like trout sitting on runny risotto that would be your pick. Water glasses with spots, nice. The caboose is cool and I could see children enjoying climbing on it and exploring but it is visibly full of junk. Such potential, great location but junky and dirty with terrible food

We loved this place! Great view of the lake at sunset. Small and intimate feeling inside the restaurant. My beautiful wife had salmon. I had fish and chips. Fried trout from the French Broad River. OUTSTANDING!! Also the bread pudding was great.Can’t wait to go back!

Found by accident driving to Lake Toxaway- very cool little place.Has a cabin like dining area that was open, though it has a cool outdoor area with a bar made from an old boat, what looked to be a kitchen made from a caboose that serves a great outdoor area with picnic tables, multiple chairs, fire pit, and band stage that was closed on our visit. Be a great place to hang out and view the lake .The food looked great though we just stopped in for a beverage. If you are in that area I would definitely suggest stopping by.
