We had a great experience. Our reservations were for 8:30 PM on a Sunday, so it was pretty quiet in the restaurant. Our server was very nice and accommodating. The food was delicious. We enjoyed our time and will definitely go back.

Sunday party of four. We absolutely have to dine here when we visit Biltmore. We are three adults and a booster seat for the toddler. We had the bbq wings, cheese and charcuterie tray, wild rice w mushroom soup, and the soup of the day, creamy sweet potato, and a salad. Grilled cheese and fries for our two-yr-old. We also enjoyed mama’s yellow Pil -Pilsner and Tito’s dirty martini. Because our reservation was for 8:45pm we intended to only have drinks and dessert, but they were nice enough to seat us nearly an hour early, yay Thank You! Our server, Jason was helpful and accommodating, a nice gentleman! We were pleased to see families with young children enjoy the evening and found that there were plenty of adult couples enjoying their night out as well.

Anna was an attentive server. We sent back my granddaughter’s grilled cheese because the cheese wasn’t melted. Without hesitation, Anna had another made and it was perfect. I had the cast iron skillet salmon with sweet potato puree and fall veggies. It was spectacular! And of course, my wine completed the meal.

The restaurant was slow to begin with, and it took a while before we actually got someone to come to our table. The rest of the night was kind a like that, slow. The food was OK maybe another day it would be better, but we weren’t real excited about it. The large salad was on a small plate, which caused the ingredients to fall off the side of the plate; and someone forgot about the dressing.Our waiter at times was very tentative and nice, but he was a little disappointing.

Had high hopes! I had the NY strip - the steak had about 2 oz of just fat chunks and smothered so deeply in the fig sauce (which tasted like the base of a BBQ sauce) you couldn’t enjoy the meat. The potatoes came with blue cheese but didn’t include it in the description. Large tastes like that should be called out. Maybe personal preference - but a stronger ginger beer in the cranberry mule, it’s extremely mild.

My husband and I were there for lunch and decided to try something different as an appetizer. We ordered the crab and artichoke dip with toasted baguette pieces. The dip was very dry and had a thick layer of bread crumbs on it. The baguette slices were very hard and also very dry. The burger was great but that appetizer was pretty awful.

Had a 10pm reservation, able to get there earlier @ 9:30pm and they had a table. Jason, our server, was very knowledgeable about the menu as well as Biltmore in general! Had a great meal and good conversation. The table next to us (4 adults) seemed to be talking at once the entire time, but the restaurant, employees, and food were great.

We had a very enjoyable dinner at Cedric's Tavern. The decor, ambiance, and overall experience was fine, and the service provided by "Adam A" was exceptional. Adam made the overall evening a memorable pleasure. Judy had an outstanding pork chop entree, and my fish and chip entree was good. But Adam's attentiveness and professionalism made us feel welcome and enhanced the celebratory mood, so we stayed and enjoyed wonderful desserts. Cedric's is surrounded by the shops at the Biltmore Estate, which makes it easy to visit while enjoying the Estate. Cedrics and Adam are both highly recommended.

Giving Cedrics a 2 star and that's only because our entrees were pretty great. There were multiple typos on the menus dealing with allergies. We've eaten here multiple times in the past and every time it gets worse. Took 20 minutes to get our drinks and when we got them the order was wrong because they had given my husband's drink to the table next to us. We never were asked if we like a refill of our drinks and took 45 minutes to get our entrees and an additional 25 minutes to get a single desert order. The waiter never took responsibility for anything ... Just blaming everyone else. The two tables he was waiting on next to us suffered the same. It's a real shame... This place used to be a great addition to the Biltmore experience.

We usually have a good experience at Cedric’s but we did not last night. The restaurant was not busy but it took forever for the food to come out. When it finally came out it wasn’t good. The waitress didn’t even stop at the table while we were waiting to get our food to update us or see if we needed anything.

Sunday dinner with friends. Thankfully we had reservations because the place was packed with a lively crowd. We were seated immediately, but service took a while to get to us. Jess was good once we got going. We all started with the baby kale salad which was very onion forward. Our entrees arrived while we still all had our salad plates. 2 of us had the tri-tip which was nicely prepared, and the green bean casserole was ok, a tad greasy. The salmon dish was enjoyed but my hubs had the Cornish hen dish and was not impressed with it, small portion and possibly undercooked. This visit the company was much better than the food.

Service was wonderful, we both chose New York strip, cook was perfect but steak was heavy with fat on the outside. Potatoes were not seasoned well either. We had the gingerbread dessert, that was scrumptious. I would try the halibut next time!!
