The Village Bistro (formerly 13 moons) at Nantahala Village has taken a great leap forward in quality, ambiance and service. Before the meal they bring bread and a very fresh tasting tomato/basil sauce. The beer list is good and the house wine is also a good brand. I had a pasta with wild mushrooms and roasted garlic oil; I added... More

From my time in Bryson City, I can say that the restaurant at the Nantahala Village (called Thirteen Moons) is one of the nicest restaurants in the area and definitely the nicest restaurant to go to in the Nantahala gorge. On the weekends, they can get very, very busy, especially on the nights when they host a local bluegrass musician... More

Here you can sit and enjoy yummy food for breakfast, lunch or dinner while watching the river. Warning--can get really crowded at lunchtime during the summer! Sometimes the service is slow, but since I'm next to my favorite river, I don't care. The ambience is kind of funky river hippie. You'll be seated amongst bikers, river rats, thru hikers on... More

This is a great restaurant at one of our favorite spots in Swain County. The view of the river is unparalleled. The food is awesome. They have a vegan burger called the "dirty vegan", that I absolutely love. The service is great. You've got to try it if you come to Bryson City.

Worst supposed great restaurant I have tried. Did not acknowledge us at all even though the bartender passed us 5 times, but not one word to say he was busy and would be over soon. We had to call over the girl who seated us, and she was good, but the food was disgusting. The filet mignon had a sweet... More

I've eaten there 5 or 6 times. The owner was the executive chef at the Boca Raton Hotel and Country Club, as well as other large New York hotels. He owns another restaurant that has pictures of him standing next to a US president, the prime minister of England and a host of other famous people. There is simply nothing... More

We enjoyed the restaurant for a Thanksgiving buffet that was not only a very top notch meal, but conducted in such a fashion as to be very well managed. They called us in and seated us as one would for regular reservations so there was no real waiting line at the buffet tables. Everything was so professionally done.

Before going to Nantahala, my wife and I checked here, and a few other websites about the local restaurant, 13 Moons. We couldn't believe a restaurant with the negative comments could actually stay in business in such a nice area. So we decided to investigate for ourselves. After checking the menu and pricing, which was reasonable, we decided to make... More

This restaurant is the perfect setting for a meal in the mountains. We had a delicious meal with great service. The view is beautiful.
