Blue Ridge Grill


The Blue Ridge Grill. http://www.blueridgegrill.com/
This posh get away was a diner's dream. The cocktails were great, the food was excellent, the service was sublime, and the company was great as usual.
This is another "Crewe" get together. We arrive and Donna and David are "keeping the bar warm" for us...LOL! Dave is drinking a Basil lime gimlet...one sip...now I have one too! WOW!
The decor is absolutely incredible. It has a lodge feel to it. The waiting area was like a really comfortable porch. The place was full of rich woods and calm lighting. I really felt comfortable...with 2 exceptions:
1. The picture of the rabbit in the suit with a shot gun...freaky
2. The table next to us where one lady had no idea what her "inside voice" was. (inside joke laugh with Donna)

The food was "spot on". Biggest onion rings I've ever seen...but they were SO good!
It's hard to tell what one person ordered when we go out. We all share and sample off of one another's plates.

Pros: The Food, the service, the atmosphere
Cons: The lady sitting next to us
Rating: 5 out of 5 Forks
Note: Try that Gimlet!
