    Very peaceful and quiet location. Everything bout dinner was outstanding. They have their own garden on site growing their vegetables for the mea;s. The owner manager is the grandson of the original owner of this land and he stopped by all the tables to chat and see how the dinner was going. Their are 4 courses where you can choose from multiple items in each category. I had the Steak Tartare, Quail, Scallops and apple fritters as my 4 choices and they were all outstanding. They look change the menu items hopefully every few weeks so their is always a new dishes on the menu.

    Enchanting evening. We have been before and this time took friends who also appreciate the experience of a casual elegant farm to table atmosphere. The food (actually more like art) was exceptional with flavor combinations that are such a special treat.

    This is most definitely the best restaurant we have have gone to in East Tn. We dined outside for dinner and it was magical! Absolutely amazing! If you have not gone then go don’t wait! Food was delicious and the service was top notch. The compressed apple was one of my favorites. Bon Appetit
    Wilder at Windy Hill Farm and PreserveResponded on November 27, 2024
    It is so wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your visit with us. We do have amazing views from our patio! (and the compressed apple is definitely a treat to enjoy!)

    A beautiful setting. The restaurant is small and tables are a great distance apart so you have privacy. I liked all the courses being included and was pleasantly surprised with the starter of fried olives and fresh rolls. Our waitress was very personable. When the other staff served our food they did get" who had what" mixed up for most courses, but it was easily remedied. Both the owner and chef came to speak with our table. All in all a very pleasant experience.
    Wilder at Windy Hill Farm and PreserveResponded on November 27, 2024
    Thank you for your kind words, and your patience with us as we continue to refine our service process. The feedback is necessary for us to grow and continue to develop, and our guests are an essential part of that continued growth. We would love to visit with you again soon.
