   Beautiful restaurant. The menu felt eclectic yet cohesive. The African peanut sauce on the chicken was fantastic and the rice grits under the short rib were cooked perfectly. Also the addition of raw celery to the short rib was a really nice touch. Great quality ingredients, lots of skill and attention to detail coming out of the kitchen. Our server Austin was excellent. He was extremely kind and attentive and made us feel absolutely comfortable. Anytime we are lucky to be back in Cashiers we will definitely be making a reservation and will be asking to sit in Austin’s section. Great job to the kitchen staff, pasty chef (the bread service was top notch) and all the front of house. You should all be extremely proud of the job you are doing.

   This used to be our favorite restaurant in the area but sadly the food quality has really deteriorated. We did not enjoy our meal and thought it was very mediocre for the price. The ambiance is amazing and we loved our pre-dinner drink outside. I truly hope they can work out whatever is going on in the kitchen.

   The food and beverage were very good. The view from our table was excellent. The problem with our table and meal was the continuous traffic of servers that walked back and forth next to our table which was next to a wall separating the porch seating from the dining room. It was a small square table with only two chairs on two sides of the table. The meal was good but the parade of servers walking next to us as we ate was rude and disturbing.

   Canyon Kitchen is in a beautiful setting at the base of a mountain. We enjoyed a cocktail outside before our dinner and then had a delicious dinner inside. I eat mostly plant-based and they had a delicious Stuffed Zucchini with fresh vegetables. If you are in the Cashiers or Highlands area, I highly recommend this restaurant and you need to get your reservations in early.

   The service was not what it's used to be. Our server forgot to bring our bread basket and one person in our party never got her main dish. No one ever come to pour our wine.

   Great views and atmosphere. Service very good, exceptionally friendly staff and they know their products well. Food? Good, not great or exceptional. Trout had zero flavor to it, actually bland. Wife was pleased with the short ribs and rice. Maybe I should have expected that from farm raised trout as I rarely will eat farm raised fish or shellfish. Drinks - cocktail excellent, house wine by the glass just fair at best and over priced. Hope this helps.

    This was our first visit to Canyon Kitchen. It did not disappoint! Fabulous service and a fantastic atmosphere. We tried a couple appetizers, sides and entrees. All were incredible. We had our 5 year old with us which can certainly be a challenge at a nice restaurant, but Canyon Kitchen made it easy. They offer a diverse kid friendly menu that made our son very happy. We will absolutely be back! Also, highly recommend going early for your reservation to get a drink from the bar (cocktails were great!) and enjoy the fabulous views.

    We enjoyed our visit to Canyon Kitchen from the very start. I call it a visit for it was not a mere dinner experience. We arrived 30 minutes early so we could walk their gardens (my sister and brother being a great cooks and foodies who study farm to table concepts) and take in the fresh air spectacular view. The hostess welcomed us and was not in the least distressed that we arrived so early. We appreciate their mountain casual dress code for we had walked the park road to Whitewater Falls near by and it was worth the short hike, as the largest waterfall east of the Rockies. She escorted us to the patio and invited us to take in the view while sipping cocktails in Adirondack chairs, which we did. We then had the opportunity to come back in and sit by the fire and chat with our family who was visiting. Exactly at our appointed dinner reservation time they sat us at our long family table and explained our menu in detail. All choices were so marvelous sounding we had just about one of everything. The small plates of devil eggs (smooth as silk), crawfish hush puppies (unique!), BBQ smoked Lamb ribs (enticing from the minute you drive up), fried SC Quail, and baby arugula salad. They had biscuits and soft freshly made rolls to accompany these delights. As mains we each enjoyed NC mountain trout (falls easily in soft perfectly cooked flakes), cheerwine braised short rib on creamy rice (magnificent) and prime painted hills NY strip almost the size of the canyon granite outside 🤗. We loved the idea of sides being family style to pass amongst us. Truly all was delicious. They never rushed us, as every table filled in the time we were there. Sad to say we could not fit in a dessert given all we had tasted! Superb! It’s definitely a must for all to enjoy and of course, we will return.

    A reservation is a necessity or you will likely be disappointed. But Canyon Kitchen is well worth the extra planning. The ambience is lovely and welcoming. We were seated near a roaring fire which was so inviting. The waitstaff as well as the bar tenders have been thoroughly trained, both with how to do their tasks, but also what the possible changes/alterations in the menu might be. We were not at all rushed through our meal. Our dinners were delicious. There are no down sides to making a visit to Canyon Kitchen

    Always expect a special evening at Canyon Kitchen and our experience tonight did not disappoint. The energy of the dining room is special with the crackling fire and personable hosts and servers. The food (don’t miss the roasted root vegetables) matches the grand Mountain view with unexpected treats from the Chef. Kudos all around!
