Beautiful Venue!
Great service and Food!
Great service and Food!
Stunning views! Flavorless food. I’d just get some apps or a salad next time. Would go back for the aesthetic alone. Service was underwhelming - first impression: we get there, small venue - entire party was there and the hostess said - come back here at your reservation time. A true fine dining experience- the hostess would come get you. Considering no one was in the restaurant. Server was fairly sarcastic and cut us off. Staff assisting - wonderful! I’d order at...read full review
Beautiful place, great service. Little disappointed with the bread selection as a starter. $12 for 2 people? We received 2 small biscuits and 1 other piece of bread. That seemed odd . It was ok but many places in Highlands/ Cashiers bring bread complimentary. The rest of our meal was great and the salads were great.

Canyon Kitchen offers a spectacular view and top-notch service, making it a perfect dining destination. The atmosphere is incredible, featuring beautiful mountain views, outdoor seating at the bar, and a picturesque outdoor garden area. The food is great, with dishes like the anniversary dinner, pork osso buco, and entrees such as tri tail fish and catfish. The small plates are large servings—quail and grits could even be an entrée! The sides are shareable, and dessert options include delicious strawberry pavlova and ice cream, with lemon sherbert being a standout. Guests have enjoyed creative drink options and praised the attentive and genuine service from servers like John, Caleb, and David. The outdoor bar and gardens create a lovely setting, especially when enjoying a cocktail while watching the sunset or sitting in Adirondack chairs by the meadow. The setting is gorgeous and inviting, with a cozy vibe despite being an open-air dining experience. Canyon Kitchen is a must-visit for a memorable dining experience in one of the most picturesque locations in Western NC.
