OMG... we stop here every time we come up to Beech Mountain. In fact we time our flights just so we can eat here! Best home cooking ever! Get a pie to go! The meals are inexpensive. My favorite is the flounder while my sister loves the stew. Try the fried green tomatoes!

Step into this cozy and could be romantic restaurant with big windows and a great view. I watched the deer roam while have a fantastic meal. Local caught pecan crusted trout was cooked to perfection! Fresh green beans and carrot ribbons were very flavorful. Simple wine menu but with good wines! Friendly staff.
