    Great experience, service was perfect, as well as ambiance. The amuse-bouche was a nice touch and it was delicious. The temperature of all dishes could have been hotter. The gnocchi was our least favorite dish, very dense and paste like. The lobster was the best that I have tasted, cooked perfectly. Overall it was a great experience.

    This is what fine dining is supposed to be: elegant, meticulous, and divine! Walking down the stairs, we knew we were in for a fantastic experience. The starched and pressed white tablecloths and immaculate Christmas decor set the scene with the sun setting beyond the Pisgah National Forrest - this is what you see in Hallmark movies and nostalgic photos. Our table, tucked away and facing the sun, was an ideal setting for our date night. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and welcoming. The backlit menus were a nice touch for 50-year-old eyes, and the options were seemingly endless and succulent. Without hesitation, the chef accommodated food sensitivities without sacrificing the presentation or flavors. The squash and she-crab soups were a great way to start our meals. The short ribs and lamb were perfectly seasoned and prepared. I get lamb whenever it is available. I can say, without question, that this was the best flavored, perfectly cooked, and tender lamb I have ever eaten. If you are looking for a place to take that special someone, The Dining Room at Biltmore Estates is the place. A simply amazing dining experience!

    We loved our dinner at the dining room. Great experience, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Beautifully decorated for Christmas and they even gave our little one a “Cedric” for being a great dinner guest that evening. Highly recommend.
