Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Travelers Rest

Outstanding dinner tonight following our Candlelight Christmas Tour of the Biltmore House! From the yummy salad greens (& great house made dressing) to the Wild Mushroom Soup and even the perfectly cooked Black Angus Ribeye steaks - not only was everything delicious, BUT everything was grown or raised on the Biltmore Estate! So very cool! Beautiful open-kitchen space and great service from Bobby just topped it all off! Absolutely recommend The Bistro!

Our first time here. They have a separate menu that is "Brunch Every Day" and both our dishes were outstanding. The other menus look just as good. We will DEFINITELY be back!

The food, drinks, and service were all fantastic! Would recommend the tenderloin appetizer and the filet as an entree. Others in our party ordered other things and everyone was extremely happy. Will definitely put this one on our regular rotation.

The braised beef short rib w/black truffle grits and greens was AMAZING! Not overpowered with truffle, just a nice flavor to raise the bar. Portion was huge. Starter of crispy Brussels sprouts w/honey, goat cheese, supurb. She crab soup can tend to be salty, but tonight was right on with a decent amount of crab. Dessert was divine of a cardamom panna cotta w/an apple filling. Very light, nice, and smooth texture similar to what I experience in Italy, but plated to raise the experience. Can’t go wrong at Soby’s! Jackie was a great server and had our meal nicely spread out and never felt rushed or wondering if next course was forgotten! Thanks for working Thanksgiving all!

Five times a year Roost goes out of its way with their Brunch Buffet. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines Day, Mother's Day and Father's Day according to the server. It's a great place for all ages. Each of the top-notch brunches are listed on their home page menu closer to the time of the event.
