   The best food, the best service, and the best atmosphere in western North Carolina without question. An evening of fine dining as it should be.

   Server forgot to bring our second course and brought our main instead. So we told him, and he brought the second course too - we had to push our main course aside to eat our second course. Felt rushed and disorganized. Thought he would offer us something as a "sorry about that" but no. It was an anniversary celebration and for the cost of the meal would have expected something.

   We live in Asheville about 40 minutes away and dine at Newman's several times a year. The setting - the views - the ambiance - the service - and the food are all special. Every time we leave we are already thinking of our next visit.

   Great ambience and music. Great service. Little over priced for food and wine. The food is good but not great for the price.

   Average food for high prices. Chef needs to learn how to elevate the cuisine. Two prix fix dinners with one cocktail, one glass of wine, and one cranberry juice came to a jaw dropping $270.00. (tax and 20% tip included.) For that price, I should be raving about the food, but it was lacking in finesse, flavor, and portion size. I'm no pigger outer, but c'mon, a crab cake half the size of a golfball?!?! One slice of bread per person?!

   Newman’s is a unique eating experience. The mountain views are beautiful and the food is excellent. There is a sense of community in the friendly but professional atmosphere.

   Compared to our past two experiences, we felt like this one really fell short. The soup lacked flavor. The veal was tough and difficult to cut. The veggies on the plate were soggy and also lacking in flavor. Wine is WAY overpriced.

   The ambiance and the amazing mountain views is what separates this experience from all others. The food is very good, the service is personalized and professional, but the spectacular vista views from every seat at every table is the game changer. We were there on a very cloudy evening and it was still amazing. We cannot wait to go back (and have already made reservations for our next trip to the NC mountains!).

    I was very lucky to find this place on Tripadvisor! A true hidden gem in a rustic B&B. Food was fantastic with multiple great choices for each course so it was hard to decide what to order. Service was perfect--not too fast but not too slow. I will be returning for sure

    This was our third meal at Newman’s and all meals have been exceptional. The atmosphere, service and food have been high quality. The setting in the mountains and the dinning area in an old inn present a calming quality to the excellently prepared meals.

    This is our third visit for Sunday brunch, and while the view is wonderful and the inn is charming, the food wasn’t as good as I remember in past visits. Shrimp and grits had maybe 5 shrimp that tasted bland (probably frozen) and the dish was too salty. Accompanied by two asparagus spears, a little meager in portion size IMO. Server didn’t refill water glasses routinely and had to be asked a couple times. Desserts were all tasty. None of this is a deal breaker but the experience is not as good as past visits.

    Absolutely wonderful food, served properly and a setting that is beyond expectations. My only suggestion would be to allow a bit more time between starters and entrees. The restaurant and setting is too beautiful to feel the least bit rushed. The aperol spritzes are “over the top” perfect mix. Thank you.

    The family is lovely and ambiance is incredible. I think maybe this experience was so poor was because it was on the backside of very busy holiday season, we hit an off night. We have been here before and always had a top notch experience. I do have empathy for the exhaustion the family must have as they go ALL OUT during the Christmas season. We bought a really nice bottle of wine. Took them forever to find it, it was stored too cold and didn’t begin to open until post entree. Even then The bottle was just OK, at twice the price of Caymus, we expected a very special wine. The food was actually not very good for any of the 3 of us and at these prices you would hope for Michelan 1-star level. My husband had the pork, my son had the duck and I had the filet. The best course was the second course homemade linguine in a delightful white sauce with nice peppery flavor. The filet was an Ok cut of meat with no special sauce or treatment, the potato parve may have been made days prior, I think there 4 greyish Brussel sprouts. My sons duck was stringy and flavorless. My husbands pork was not good. The torte was a very stale homemade German chocolate cake…dry and literally terrible. When you drop $800 for a special occasion you expect much more.

    Newman's is a gem! We love to come to the Orchard Inn and soak in the ambience of this "country cottage". The star of the show is the food though. Each of the four courses was excellent - superb flavors and combinations. We were impressed with the plate presentations, balance of the dishes and succulent flavors. Our only disappointment was our server - she did not have a good pace to the evening and she was consistently forgetful and "running behind schedule". Hopefully this issue will be fixed by the next time we return. We will be back.

The beautiful view overlooking the mountains, the soothing soft music, and superb service and hospitality made for a most memorable and enjoyable gourmet experience.
