The Main Dining Room at The Greenbrier offers a mix of experiences according to recent visitors. While some found the breakfast buffet decent, featuring options like a killer bloody maria and the ability to order off the menu, others felt the overall experience was overpriced. Guests appreciated the classy atmosphere of dinner, noting the importance of dressing up for the occasion, along with the enjoyable piano and guitar music played during the meal. The historic aspect of the resort and the attentive wait staff were highlighted positively, particularly the outstanding service from Christina, who made diners feel welcomed and valued.
Recent reviews emphasize the excellent food and formal atmosphere of the restaurant. Some dishes, like the black pepper roles, were praised for their creativity and flavor layers, while the onion soup and sea bass received high marks for their quality. The presentation of dishes, as well as the grilled shrimp and miso glazed Salmon, were highlighted as outstanding. Guests also appreciated the beautifully arranged salads and the overall sophisticated dining environment, which is part of the hotel’s grand setting. However, some diners noted that certain dishes, such as potatoes, may taste a bit cheap, and a jacket is required for admission, though one was kindly provided.
While many enjoyed their meals, there were comments about inconsistent service, with one guest mentioning a wait handled by management due to staff shortages. The restaurant’s breath-taking hall and formal dress code, requiring dinner jackets for men and elegant evening wear for women, contribute to the upscale experience. Despite some mixed reviews about quality and upkeep, the Main Dining Room continues to be recognized for its historical charm, memorable dining, and special occasion atmosphere, especially at breakfast and dinner.
