The salmon I ordered was some of the best I’ve had, with perfectly crispy skin. My husband didn’t find his pasta super filling or large for an entree, but it was very fresh and tasty. They served a mini loaf of house-made bread for an appetizer.
The service was great. We were basically the only people there, so it was a very quiet atmosphere, with comfy chairs and jazz music in the background. Perfect for an anniversary date.
My wife and I decided to stay at Hotel Wayanoke for New Years and have dinner at the hotel restaurant Taproot Tavern. They had a New Years special going on. We prepaid online $60 a person. The hotel was great it was beautiful and all the staff in the hotel were personable and friendly. Our experience in the restaurant not so much. Our reservations were at 6pm. My wife and I both are corrections officers that work different shifts and different locations so this was our best option for spending New Years together. My wife got held up at work and would not be able to make the 6pm reservation so I went down and spoke to the manager at Taproot and she assured me it would be ok for us to come around 7:30pm. She had my pick out our entrees and desserts I chose the lamb chop for my wife and the hoping johns for my self I was super excited that they were able to accommodate us. We arrived around 7:35ish and were ready to eat delicious food. Our salads were great and the bread was amazing but our entrees not so much. Here is the description directly from their website: Traditional Hoppin’ John
with Marinated Chicken
Symbolizing Good Fortune avorful, healthier version of Hoppin’ John
(made with Black-Eyed Peas smoked ½ chicken. and aromatic
vegetables) paired with lean,
Served with Whole-Grain Cornbread Muffin
The entree I received was what appeared to be quarter hotdogs over a bed of black bean and rice. There was not once single piece of vegetable or smoked 1/2 chicken on my plate nor was there a cornbread muffin. My wife’s lamb chop had great flavor and both entrees were lukewarm. The beans were the only HOT thing we received outside of the bread. I let the server know this was not what I ordered and the manager came to our table to assure me this was the Hoppin Johns I asked about the chicken and she simply said we don’t have the chicken and walked away. We both know very well you don’t EVER send your meal back. We were very polite and I attempted to eat what I was given. The manager was unapologetic and didn’t mention anything about the rest of what was missing from the description of THEIR menu item. The server brought us the check and we were shocked to see that they had charged us another $45.83 on top of the $120 we paid online. We were charged $5.00 for the 2 sweet teas we ordered, $25 for a 20% service charge, and $15.83 for tax. None of which was mentioned on their website for this New Years special. We paid our bill and did not give anyone a hard time but I will never forget how Taproot made me feel. I left this restaurant feeling scammed and hungry on New Years.
The ribeye is tender and so juicy. The portions are perfect. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the service is phenomenal.
I love this place so much.
I believe there was one server and one bartender for the entire restaurant. We did feel bad for the waitress, as she seemed inexperienced and a little overwhelmed.
The food was not good. Lamb “medallions” were small slivers of overcooked meat that resembled more like jerky. Ribeye steak was tough and not able to be cut with dull steak knives.
Pretty disappointing altogether. Especially since we have had good meals at taproot tavern in the past.
Anything else?
