The seafood buffet was excellent! Everything was good but we loved the crab legs, shrimp, mussels and prime rib best. Too pricey to eat regularly but we will definitely be back for our next special occasion!

Review for Courses, second floor dining: This was our second experience...after the first, we said we'd be back, and it was just as good if not better! Appalachian Harvest menu this time was delicious and based on local farm-to-table fruits/veggies. We ordered the glazed carrot/turnip over labneh, a creamy Middle Eastern yogurt...a new taste we loved. We also ordered the lamb (well seasoned) and the rich-and-creamy chicken/herb spaetzle, along with the walnut crusted muscadine torte. All yum. Ambiance/decor is urban rustic, with nice window views. Very attentive server. We'll head to the rooftop soon for the outdoor experience! Fire pits!
