    July 2nd and the weather was perfect for either outside patio dining or inside. We chose a window table inside. Tabitha was an excellent waitress and even shared a few other sights to see as we had hiked to Rainbow Falls that day. We had the Veal Saltimbocca, the Filet of Beef and Crispy Brussels Sprouts which were like a desert in themselves. Order Medium Rare on the Steak to get the perfect Medium. It was succulent. Views of the lake and boats passing nearby while dining was special. Overall a wonderful experience.

    we always look forward to our times at the lake for lunch! On this day, one of the workers was using a blower during our meal. Not only was it loud, the gas fumes and the dirt flying was blowing our way. Our waitress was very helpful to ask him to please stop, and he was a little short with her and continued.  other than that, the food was absolutely amazing as always.

    Our dining experience was excellent. The view over Lake Toxaway was beautiful. The food and service (Lindsey) was very enjoyable. My wife's grouper dish was perfect, the filet of beef I had was cooked as requested and the presentation was very nice. The strawberry rhubarb cobbler was superb. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Snapper was very blah. Sides good. No bread service. No table cloths. Birthday dinner but no little extra, like small dessert, etc. Left on down...mot like it used to be.
    The Restaurant at The GreystoneResponded 1 day ago
    Hello Raoul, We’re truly sorry to hear that your recent visit didn’t meet your expectations—especially for such a special occasion. Birthdays should feel celebratory, and it’s clear we missed the mark in making your evening feel as memorable as it should have been. We appreciate your comments about the snapper and the overall experience, and we’re sharing your feedback with our culinary and service teams to ensure we’re delivering the level of care and attention our guests deserve. While we’ve made some changes over time, our goal remains the same: to create warm, welcoming, and delicious experiences for every guest. We hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to make things right and to show you the hospitality you remember and deserve. Sincerely, The Restaurant Team
