The atmosphere is so much like what you’d expect from older movies! The entire place seems to be like it was 100 years ago….but so clean and beautiful. The food was amazingly tasty. I had ginger peach trout and my husband had the prime rib which was cooked to perfection. The sides were mushroom casserole and almond green beans. You do not pick your sides, it’s what is served for that mealtime but let me say they were grand!!! And you can get refills on the sides…just saying. Wait staff was great as was the hostess and bartender that presented us with our anniversary Biltmore Brut.

The food was pretty good, but they have some maintenance issues. The salt and pepper shakers were rusty and the hallway walking to the restaurant leans badly. I understand that it is old, and I really appreciate that, but having a level floor would be nice. Service was fine but the kitchen is slow. If you stay at the Inn, dinner and breakfast is included.

Oh my! The Dining Room at Fryemont Inn is a truly delicious experience!

The historic inn is nestled in the mountains in Bryson City, North Carolina, just a little over 100 years old.

This inn, including the gorgeous 1920’s vaulted ceiling great room, is constructed from the now rare American Chestnut, which is aromatic in a way that enhances the dining experience.

First, we were warmly greeted and promptly aware despite not having made a reservation.

Our server, Josh, was great! I couldn’t decide on my entree, so he went ahead and started us with drinks and the soup course that comes with every full meal. The soup was an innovative BLT soup, with all of the flavors and textures of a bacon, lettuce, tomato sandwich in a creamy base. It was so good, I could have had only the soup and been content!

Next, Josh brought out crisp mixed greens with cherry tomatoes, croutons, and red onion with choice of house made dressing. My husband and I both had the blue cheese dressing, which was fantastic! I can’t vouch for the honey mustard or ranch dressings, but I bet they are equally as good.

I decided on the special of the night, Trout Florentine. The chef at the Fryemont gets the fresh trout daily! This particular preparation featured a roasted tomato and creamy spinach sauce over a perfectly cooked delicately flavored flaky trout filet. My husband had the buttery medium rare Prime Rib with horseradish, which was apparently so delicious that he did not offer me a bite!

The three family-style vegetables of the day were Parmesan roasted red potatoes, a tomato bake, and broccoli with cheese sauce. All were excellent!

For dessert, my husband had the homemade peach cobbler with ice cream, which I was too slow to get a photo of, since he wolfed it down as though he hadn’t already eaten soup, salad, prime rib, and three delicious sides. I held back and got my dessert-a blueberry sour cream pound cake with citrus glaze-to go.

We will definitely be back!

This is an interesting experience to say the least. They have been open since 1923 and it sure feels like they have been open since then. If you were big into the Ambiance of a place then you should definitely come here. I think that there is a lot to offer with this place. The food was good and it was reasonably priced for how much food you get. If we’re going to be honest I was not a big fan of having the family style of side dishes, as I could have been content with my own. We are currently visiting cherokee, and this has been the best gluten-free dining experience that I have had so far. If I could not eat something the restaurant was more than accommodating to adapt to that. They ensured that if I needed a substitution they could find one. The menu is large and extensive. They have a nice wine list too.

The food was good . The best was the soup. Everyone was nice. Sarge in the bar was making Everyone laugh. Our waitress was the sweetest. This place is 100 years old and it felt inviting. They gave you just the right portion size of everything. Everyone was nice that we talked to there even at the front desk when we made our reservations . We knew nothing of this place till we talked to a local shop owner and im glad we did.

This is the place to go in Bryson City! From the greeting at the door, wonderful birthday deco at table to the excellent shrimp and grits. Wife hade the prime rib and it was delicious. The building is over 100 years old and just gives a warm welcoming vibe that makes me want to stay in a room there as well.

We celebrated my hubby’s Birthday last night while visiting from Raleigh. We were FLOORED with how good it was!!! We had the caprice, risotto, and mountain trout. Delicious!! The chocolate desert was the best desert we’ve ever had along with Sullivan’s Steakhouse’s bananas foster in Raleigh. Great service and the hotel’s ambience was so historical. Loved it!!

Too bad they don’t have more stars! This “Dining Room” is a five-star restaurant. The food is unbelievable. The service is impeccable. The atmosphere must be experienced to be believed. They are always fully booked. From the salad and soup to the dessert, nothing is second class. Top notch all the way. The owners are on site and make sure that every expectation is met. The Inn is quaint, the dining room cozy and comfortable. In the fall, the views are breath-taking.

First thing, we noticed how rustic the restaurant was. It reminded us of being in the mountains and we were! Such a lovely place to take a long leisure dinner. Second thing, you need to be very hungry because the portions are large. Family style serving was a delight. You don’t get to pick the vegetables but what they served was tasty. Dessert was over the top! Come eat this historic restaurant!!!!
