What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Sunset Terrace offers a luxurious dining experience with breathtaking mountain views and exceptional service, making it ideal for special occasions. While many praise the attentive staff and standout dishes like the filet mignon and gnocchi, some reviews mention a less welcoming initial experience with hostesses and occasional dissatisfaction with food quality relative to price. Parking fees can also be a point of concern for some visitors.
"The sunset terrace is such a beautiful spot to enjoy a meal and/or drink.
My wife and I went for dessert and drinks and had such a lovely time. I had the coconut cloud with a non-alcoholic basil peach limeade.
There are other wonderful cocktail, wine, beer and non-alcoholic options as well.
The dessert was light and refreshing, as well as delicious.
And you really can’t bear the view. Try and book a time about half an hour before sunset if you want to catch the golden hour vibes. Also, as a table for two, we were right beside the overlook, which was very nice.
All the food and dishes that were at other tables looked and smelled amazing as well.
Such a lovely way to end a day exploring Asheville."

"Limited vegetarian options, no vegan options in a gorgeous porch setting. Our server was personable and excellent. Lovely date spot if you and your date enjoy traditional American fare. Delicious cocktails and mocktails."

"One of the best outdoor lunches you can get with a view and walk in to history. The Reuben and burger were great as well as the fried avocado. Located in the Grove Park Inn. Before you get here read about the historic hotel and then take a short walk to work and look at the pictures on the walls as well as the famous fireplace and elevator. Great experience not just food but the atmosphere."
