   The food was excellent as well as the service. For a bistro, I thought the menu was a little limited.

   I ordered the trout which is advertised as fresh. It was not and was VERY fishy tasting - so much so that I sent the whole thing back and wished I could get the taste out of my mouth. The French onion soup was passable, the filet was nothing to brag about, and the trout was horrible.

   First, the manager, Austin, was very helpful and made every effort to make our experience right. I ordered a $79 estate raised ribeye that came with “fried potatoes” and braised(?) kale. The ribeye was not seasoned and chewy. Cooked to te right temp, but a bad cut of meat. The fried potatoes were literally what you would get at iHop, they should not have been on the plate, and they were an insult to a “fine dining” experience. My appetizer of “soup du jour” (parsnip cream based) was basically bowl of warm milk with pepper and undercooked tiny pieces parsnip - one step from baby formula. We ordered two $20 glasses of wine which were good. The mussels appetizer was good. Overall, this was a $250 meal that you could get from Longhorn for $50. It’s also our second terrible food experience at the Bistro in two tries. If you’ve never eaten at a quality restaurant, maybe they’ll fool you. Otherwise, go elsewhere if you want a quality experience and value for your dollar.

    My husband & I always share meals everywhere we go. We decided to get the bone in ribeye steak and asked if we could substitute for the mashed potatoes and green beans. The steak was huge! The meal was absolutely delicious! Where we were seated was in a small corner which was very private and perfect! Thanks to all for making our weekend getaway just a little more special.

    The meal was very delicious. However, the menu online deferred somewhat to the in-house menu. One entree was 23.00 (Ribeye) more on the in-house menu. Also, there were starter items on the online menu not listed in-house. Next door is the Social restaurant which has a similar ribeye dinner for 30.00 less than the Bistro. Very perplexing.

    Nice restaurant, service provided by Blake was very good, the trout meal was very good, however the filet was ordered to be chard medium rare, it cam medium and was dried out. The wine was very good, overall a good experience.

    We enjoyed a meal celebrating a birthday at the Bistro. Our petite filet mignon was delicious and cooked perfectly. The star of the evening was our appetizer of marinated and grilled olives. I realize dining on the Biltmore Estate property was going to be expensive, but this was just a bit more than expected.

    I didn’t give a 5 star review because the server was just sub-par. I felt rushed. Food came out quickly and we ordered appetizers, entrees and deserts. Not enough time to enjoy each. I’ve eaten there a few times and was given an experience. Communication about the farm to table experience. I brought guests who’ve never dined there before and they truly missed out. Also, I forgot to mention I was a pass holder and was never asked by the server. He had already brought the bill to the table and quickly took the payment before I could say anything. I should’ve put the pass holder card in with the payment. Food was excellent, very flavorful. It never disappoints. I will be back, but will be more vocal about my expectations and give my pass holder card with the bill.

    My husband and I visited this restaurant for dinner on our recent stay at the Inn at Biltmore. The food was amazing; we ordered the filet mignon and the taste was great. The service was superb and our waitress went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. We even tried the chocolate cake dessert and it was wonderful as well. We will definitely be back on our next overnight stay to the Biltmore.

    What we had was sub par especially for the price. The mushroom salad was the best thing ever. The chorizo stuffed chicken was dry and not so good. The squash was very hard and didn’t seemed cooked all the way. There was hardly anyone there as it was out of season and took forever to get our food. Was pretty inside but won’t be back.

    The ribeye was cooked perfectly and tasted steak house quality. Vanilla bean creme brûlée was perfect. Staff was attentive. Did not wait long at all for our meal but they also were not pushing us out the door. I live locally in Asheville.

    We had a very attentive waiter, however, when he realized that we were not interested in wine, poured water for us, but never asked about any other options for beverages. I had to ASK for a carbonated soft drink, which he was excellent in keeping refilled. On past visits, with the same menu orders, we were offered bread as part of the meal. Last night, although bread plates were part of the table setting, no bread was brought with our meals. When ASKED for bread, a small cutting board with 3 small "loaves" of different breads was brought to our table. It was very good, and we were charged $9.00 for it, which we thought, rather expensive for bread. Last night was the 49th anniversary of our marriage. We have been celebrating anniversaries and my wife's birthday at the Bistro ever since we became annual passholders many years ago. Whenever we make reservations, it is always disclosed what the occasion is, and every time, without fail, the waiter and the Chef always offer congratulations, and a plate from the Chef with a congratulatory message drizzled in chocolate. Not last night. It is a simple gesture on behalf of the Bistro, but it has always been anticipated and greatly appreciated by my wife. Last night, she was quite disappointed by the price of the bread, and the lack of the simple congratulatory gestures on behalf of the Bistro. Otherwise, the meal and the service was very good. In all fairness, we will give the Bistro another chance for our next birthday celebration, and based upon that experience, will determine if I would recommend the bistro in the future.
