This is one of the best restaurants we have ever been to. We have never been disappointed. These are real chefs. Everything is made fresh all of their sauces are fabulous . The staff is excellent. My favorite dish is the deconstructed lasagna and we always get the goat cheese risotto balls for an appetizer. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. We highly recommended going you won't be disappointed.

It was a planned 89-year birthday with my wife's sisters traveling here from Idaho and California for the event. I made the reservations on March 3 which I confirmed with a telephone call. At the time I requested a back table for four and your people told me that would be part of my reservation. Attached is a printed copy of my reservation confirmation.
On May 31 I received a reminder for the reservation and a copy of that is attached.
We arrived at “The Chefs Table” several minutes before 1800-hours, the scheduled time where were told that unfortunately another group had come in and demanded our table. It was then suggested that “We leave a phone number and go to the 'The Scotsman' for about 40-minutes where we would be called when a table was ready”. We were told that no matter what we wanted, we would not have a table for 40-minutes during which time we would have to wait outside.
Reservations with the restaurant mean nothing, best have a backup plan.

I can't comment on the food or atmosphere, but only their reservation system. We made an online reservation and awaited a response. We received a phone call stating they could not accommodate us, but offered another time. Before we could respond back, we received an email stating that we were now confirmed. Another email was received later that day informing us we were confirmed. Then two hours before our reservation we were informed that it was cancelled. What the heck!!!! We will not bother with this business again, nor will we recommend it. Get your act together Chefs Table.

Once again, one of the best meals we have ever had. Thank you for making date night so amazing once again.

This was one of the most incredible dining experiences I’ve ever had. Everything tasted fresh, dynamic, balanced, and simply delicious. I will be thinking about that everything but the lasagna for weeks. My husband and I want to try so many more items and we will be back!

Fabulous local restaurant in a beautiful town in the NC mountains. Beautiful decor, excellent service, and the food was terrific. Fresh made pasta, locally sourced meats and produce. For the level of cuisine, the location, atmosphere, and service the price is reasonable. We dined there for our anniversary and were very happy. Highly recommend for a special occasion or a great meal any time.

Have visited several times and Chef's Table food is predictably good every visit. Hard to go wrong except when you use their online reservation system. Our party, with a confirmation number, was refused seating on May 10th and told since we didn't get a phone call we weren't in their ledger for the night.

The food is awesome. A not miss if you are in the area.

We visit this place every year for our anniversary trip to the mountains. The food is always top notch. The servers have also been very good over the years. Strongly recommend advance reservations as it get booked up quickly. The menu offers quite a variety of items and I've never been disappointed in 15 years. It's a small place so things are tight but the food is worth it.

I had the grouper which was excellent. The sides it came with were also excellent. Everything was cooked perfectly and our server got the meal to us while it was still nice and hot. Will definitely be back. Want to try the chicken marsala.

Amazing food that covers other sins.
First, I want to say that everyone leaves laughing and happy. It is one of the first things that I noticed when I arrived. We sat near the door, and it was a joy to watch.
It's a small place and tables are a bit too close. The back room is an unreasonable cluster where people are right on top of each other. It seemed stuffy when we arrived and that turned into a glistening sweat as we ate. .
The server was delightful. She knew the menu and described things well. We really enjoyed her.
We ordered cocktails. Her wine was delicious. My old fashioned was perfect.
The starter salad was great for my wife. Even my little plate of greens and berries were unexpectedly good.
The wait for our meal was unpleasant. We were hot and sweaty. The restaurant was annoyingly loud. We mentioned the heat to the waitress who was sweet and agreed but could not solve the problem.
I had scallops with veggies which were amazing. I loved every bite. The scallops had that perfect crispy outside and tender flavorful center. My wife had the beef rib over pasta. She raved about her meal. I snuck a bite and it was flavorful and tender. She carried on about how delicious the pasta was and how incredible the mushrooms were.
The meal was truly exceptional.
There was a fly that would not leave our table. At the end of our meal, it found a mate and made love on the window sill as we waited for the check. Even they left happy.
Dietary restrictions: They were very limited in selection but vigilant about making sure that they met my concerns for a gluten-free and dairy-free meal.
