Blue Ridge - Asheville

Six of us visited the ginger breadhouse competition, two days after Christmas, and on the farm dined to the table buffet. Service was great, very attentive and friendly. Food was delicious, serving area clean, buffet elements fully and immediately turned when low. There was a wide selection. Cocktails were unique and very tasty. A great experience, we will return.

We had a wonderful day to explore the Grove Park Inn. It all started with a scenic ride, parking adventures and what can best be described as a very long and luxurious lunch. EVERYTHING was on the spot! Stand-outs were the food (we expected buffet, but hit on self-services tapas, diligent attention from Stan, quality of coffee, and the Panna Cotta. POWER MOVE: Toast the banana bread at the bagel station and officiate an association with the cream Anglaise from the bread pudding station. We spent the rest of the day laborious to the decadence and the Zzz monster that followed and did not try to snack on the 60 National Gingerbread House competition winners that were shown throughout the facility. Simply put, a perfect day.

While I wasn't completely enamored with many of the dishes available on seafood night, there's no denying that this is a top-tier buffet with an impressive variety. There are plenty of options, a unique character, and you can indulge in as many crab legs as you'd like, reminiscent of the 90s. The view from the front of the restaurant is fantastic, so I recommend dining with a view and steering clear of the indoor kitchens. Our service was outstanding, marked by kindness and professionalism. The manager was actively involved, taking pride in overseeing his team's management of this large operation. We'll definitely return as fans of this fabulous buffet, especially for the excellent ribs.

Best buffet! All you can eat crab legs Prime Rib! That's 5! You will not be disappointed! Make a reservation!

The restaurant offers amazing views and a great variety of food. I was unaware that there was an additional charge for Christmas Eve, but I appreciate the staff who are working that day to help families celebrate.
