We came here for Christmas brunch. I had the country fried chicken which was delicious and tender. My wife and I shared the chocolate French press esspresso which was amazing. The views of Lake Toxaway are beautiful.

Always a pleasure to dine lakeside at The Greystone Inn. On this particular visit, Chef outdid himself!

The Charred Spanish Octopus was very tender & not chewy or rubbery.

The Tuna Poké was fresh & bursted with flavor from the kimchi. Those hand cut wasabi dusted potato chips were perfectly spicy & not greasy.

The Veal Saltimbocca was tender with all of the flavors melding perfectly together.

The Miso Glazed Grouper was perfectly cooked & I could drink that ginger-coconut broth!

Always save room for dessert… Their Chocolate Crème Brûlée had a nicely torched shell with rich chocolate inside. Salty, creamy, chewy Caramel Profiteroles came compliments of the Chef, as we couldn’t stop raving about the quality & execution; he was so gracious enough to come out & talk about his technique & purveyors.

We ended off a perfect meal with a Cappuccino & their Decadent Hot Chocolate made with almond milk.

Thank you for a flawless dinner start to finish, can’t wait to return!

Gorgeous view of the lake in a beautiful dining room. We ate dinner here on my birthday and it was fab! We also ate breakfast here the next morning and service/food was still top notch. Everyone was so nice and attentive…our dinner waitress, Michelle, was awesome! I had the cauliflower soup which I’m still dreaming of and then had the tuna poké for my meal. Finished it off with the almond Creme brûlée which was delicious!!! My boyfriend had the house salad and the Carolina trout which was also fantastic. Can’t wait to come back!!!

A 3-hour tour!
We made reservations for Thanksgiving dinner @4pm. They seemed to have things well in hand: a limited menu: 2 appetizers, 3 dinners, 3 desserts to choose from.
Unfortunately, execution just wasn’t there:
– we were seated upon arrival @4 pm
– the view was gorgeous – lake toxaway is beautiful
– our water order was taken, and then drinks.
– wine was delivered at about 4:20 – the other two closer to 4:45
– we ordered dinner at about 4:45
– appetizers came at about 5:15
– dinner came at 6:15 – but was sent back because it was cold (room temperature at best)
– when dessert was finally served, they got one of them wrong & took almost 10 minutes to fix.
By the time we left, it was after 7pm – and we were one of the last to leave!
No explanation for the cold food or as to why others who arrived after, were served before us – but they did comp our drinks.
The food was OK (once reheated) – nothing remarkable, but with the limited menu & it being a holiday, I’m sure we weren’t seeing their best.
But given how well setup they should have been for success (namely the limited menu), the execution fell completely flat.
We were hoping for so much more. Thankfully, our party was comprised of excellent people, gifted at making the best of difficult circumstances – so I’m spite of the service failures, we enjoyed ourselves.

My wife and I went to the restaurant in September of 2025 and had great expectations from what we heard about the Inn.
The wait staff was poorly prepared to answer our questions pertaining to the menu. I had to return my steak and ate it but was not satisfied with the way it was cooked. The wine I ordered was different from my second glass. However, on a positive note, the view of the lake was nice. Needless to say we will not return.

We had the thanksgiving dinner for two. Loved everything; great food and great service. Plus the lake views – so relaxing! I had the Pumpkin soup for starters, Turkey Roulade for entree and the Pecan Pie for dessert. The soup was my fav. We were pleasantly surprised by the reasonable costs for a three course meal on thanksgiving. Will go back again for sure.

Not Recommended.
It’s unfortunate because the views are very nice and the accommodations are comfortable.
But the things you go out for, food and service, were only adequate to poor.
We dined here five times, so we base our score on a good sample size, not just one bad experience.
Our first experience was at lunch. The waitress was charming and knowledgeable. The food took forever, and when it arrived it was underwhelming. Brown avocado in the salad, dry and tough ban mih.
The breakfast we had was the most pleasant as far as food, except the $12 waffle looked very much like a Costco frozen waffle and we were pestered nonstop by flies and yellow jackets outside. Coffee was weak.
Dinner was the weakest experience. Poorly prepared food, uninspired service and very high prices. We sent back the improperly cooked $46 ribeye steak (see picture) and my wife was completely finished with her meal when the crusted trout arrived, which was also not good. We’d had to flag down another waitress because ours was not to be found.
There were lots of other problems, too many to mention. The reason we dined here so many times is because it’s a long drive to any other restaurant, and we kept thinking “let’s give it another chance”. So, shame on us for not venturing out.
The wine list is also over priced.
Two stars for the view.
Do not waste your money.

I had high expectations going in, but everything exceeded them, even as we kept raising them. I had the cobia special pictured and it was fabulous: beautiful presentation, delicious sauce, and perfectly cooked–so important for seafood. Service was excellent and staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, one of the best meals of my life.

Update: To be fair, a manager called and left a message to apologize for our experience and asked me to call her to talk about it. I returned the call and left a message but never heard back from her.

Recommend that you read through all the reviews before deciding to eat here. We did not stay at the Inn but made a reservation for brunch at the restaurant. I’m a former fine dining server, so I’m usually pretty forgiving, but this place really needs better leadership and staff training! Just walking to the front door of the restaurant, one feels as if it’s not the right way– down a steep narrow walkway with vague signage to a heavy closed door. At 9:30 am on a Sunday, staff was still cleaning the bathrooms and carpet. We were shown to a table with a lovely view of the lake, and that was the only highlight of the morning. Our server was not friendly or helpful. She practically rolled her eyes when my husband asked for a clean coffee cup and I asked for a spoon for my sugar and cream. The coffee was lukewarm. The menu we were given was abbreviated from the one on their website. There was no mention on it of not permitting substitutions. My husband asked if he could modify a dish and was given a flat, “No.” My blueberry pancakes and side of bacon were pretty good, but my husband’s egg breakfast was equivalent to Denny’s. Since he wasn’t permitted to substitute his side of bread for a biscuit, we ordered an additional side of 2 biscuits. They were raw in the middle! Our server never bothered to check back with us, so I asked the host to take it off our bill. He took the plate and literally poked his finger in one of the biscuits and said, “They are slightly undercooked.” Other than a group who appeared to be staying at the Inn, we were the only customers. We walked over to the main building and observed a similar lack of attention to detail. It looked dingy and run down. Not even a fire lit on a chilly, rainy morning. I would avoid this place altogether.

Our first experience was at breakfast. The waffle that my wife ordered was not really a waffle but rather a deep fried sugary pastry topped with more sugary apples and the least sugary topping was the candied walnuts.. We also ordered the crepes(cold when they arrived) and eggs and toast, which were average. For the price I thought the restaurant would have been better. Our second experience was take out dinner, ordered the salmon special which had good taste but when brought to our room looked like it had been tossed around in the to go box. The kids burger was ok, but when we asked for the veggies, those came burnt and soggy. Overall I had really hoped the food would have matched the views of the great resort at the Greystone. Just a note, this is not a review of the resort which was great. We stayed at the resort for a few days and enjoyed the view and room we stayed in immensely.
