We celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary with dinner at Garden Cafe for the first time on a Thursday night, and it could not have been a better choice. The restaurant is absolutely charming—when you walk in, you’re greeted by a cozy gift shop filled with unique and cute items that set the perfect tone for the evening. We were a party of two and started our meal with the Pimento Cheese Poppers and Bacon Potato Soup—both were delicious and full of flavor. For our entrées, we ordered the Sirloin and the Salmon dish, and wow…both were outstanding! Perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. For dessert, we shared the Buttermilk Pie and Bourbon Pecan Pie (no picture this time, we couldn’t resist digging in right away). Both were absolutely incredible—sweet, rich, and the perfect way to en

Absolutely exquisite setting for lunch or dinner. The food and service is phenomenal. I had the Fried Green Tomatoes BLT. The Absolute Best BLT I have ever had. Lettuce, applewood bacon, jalapeno mayo on a grilled country butter top. Perfection! Thank you Logan Snyder of TotalBC for suggesting this restaurant. I shall return!

A cute little hidden gem! This was my first time visiting and I was not disappointed I got the mountain Boone chicken and it was really good. Our waitress Emily was sweet and efficient. The food runner was nice. The hostesses when we first arrived welcomed us warmly and made little small talk while we waited for our table. The food was on the more expensive side so plan accordingly but other than that I had a great experience!

Must try the crab cake appetizer! Quesadillas, tenderloin, salads, all good. Reasonably priced wine and cocktails. Great service and cute shop.

I ate dinner at the Garden Cafe for the first time on a Friday night, and I loved it. This restaurant is so charming. When you enter the Garden Cafe, you walk into a gift shop with many cute items. We were a party of four, and we started off with the Fried Garden, which is a basket of fried green beans with a Cajun ranch sauce. They were so delicious. We also shared the chips with Gorgonzola cheese. I had their garden salad, which was a generous portion. For my meal, I had the Porter House Pork Chop, and it has a bourbon maple glaze on it. Wow, it was outstanding. For dessert, we shared the buttermilk pie and bourbon pecan pie. They were both so good. I was so impressed with the Garden Cafe that I look forward to coming back. They do everything right to make their customers hap
