All of our breads, pastas, and pastries are prepared in-house daily. Our Bar offers local beers, seasonal craft cocktails, and a well chosen wine selection.

Reid’s was one of the best meals we have ever had from start to finish. We started with cocktails-can’t stop thinking about the Padiddle!! Lobster Bisque and warm focaccia bread was mouthwatering. My husband loved his Pork Rib Chop and my chicken thighs were delicious. Definitely order some crispy okra as a side and Tiramisu for dessert to finish the meal.

Small menu…not much for non-meat eaters (pescatarians). Expensive for what you receive when compared with other fine dining restaurants in the Blowing Rock/Boone/Banner Elk area. Wait staff seemed disinterested once we didn’t order cocktails.

Ambience was nice and upon entry had high hopes. Food was expensive for what it was. The description of the food out-paced the reality of what was delivered. $38 for a pasta special that had no protein? Pasta, three pieces of crushed tomato, Couple of chunks of tough mushroom and a blob of Barata cheese? The chicken thigh entrée featured two small, dry chicken thighs, four slices of squash, the same tough mushrooms and a touch of polenta. Oysters were good. Generally, the food was under-seasoned and kinda underwhelming. Service was good.
