Restaurants near Watauga Point Recreational Area

Another amazing meal at Americano!! We visit here several times a year when we come up to our cabin. Absolutely love the food, ambiance and everyone on staff including the owner. The holiday specials were a hit this year with most of our table ordering the surf and turf, our son had the filet which is always amazing and I had the sirloin equally delicious. Broccolini was fantastic and well seasoned. The truffle fries, clam chowder, escargot, firecracker shrimp all amazing. The Caesar salad is usually a favorite among all but tonight was overdressed. Still good but definitely overdressed and I don’t think anyone finished theirs. Dessert we enjoyed bread pudding and crème brûlée and both were very good. The guys enjoyed their old fashioned and us ladies really enjoyed our cosmos and espresso martinis. This is a must visit Everytime and I’m so grateful we have this wonderful restaurant 10 minutes from our house!!

Delicious food, great atmosphere. Consistently a wonderful experience.

All around it was pretty good food was great atmosphere was nice and I drink alot of water but my glass never was empty.

The perfect way to kick off Christmas! The restaurant's festive decorations set the mood beautifully. We enjoyed some time at the bar before dinner, which added to the experience. The food was outstanding—our table ordered the elk steak, venison, and red snapper, and every dish was a hit. Fine dining is a rare treat for us, so when we splurge, we want it to feel special. This meal did not disappoint - it was truly a memorable evening!

Great anniversary dinner! Excellent food and drinks with a chill environment
