Copper Door Restaurant Review

My wife and I have been looking for a place locally for those extra special dinner dates. I believe we've found it in the Copper Door.

Awesome service amazing food not to mention ambiance

The meals & service at Copper Door are consistently 5 star!!! Can't say enough good about this top quality restaurant.

By far the best restaurant in the area. Something you would expect to find in a city. Well trained staff. Great food.

Try to get here every time I come to Chatuge. Living in Atlanta and in DC for many years, the bill for this quality of food and service would be almost double in a major city and the eats are on par with most any high end restaurant I ve been to. Terrific spot.

Very good food and excellent service, we will return to try more of the Chef's delicacies *****

Hayesville is very remote. This is a ruby gemstone. My halibut was great, having rack of lamb tonight. Nate is very attentive. Cigar and Grand Mariner on the porch. What can you ask for? Very nice customers of ave me fishing advice.

Best dining experience in the area. Excellent food. Excellent service. We took two vacationing friends there who are vegetarian and when there was nothing specifically for them on the menu, we were amazed to hear the server say, "What would you like?" The kitchen prepared a meal for them to order, and it was outstanding. It is a treat to eat at a restaurant where people are passionate about food.

Excellent food, excellent service. One of our better experiences in the area.

For such a small town, truly an outstanding restaurant. My only fear is that the recently doubled in size and my experience is that places that get bigger generally decline in quality. So far, that doesn't appear to be the case with the Copper Door. Their chef really knows his way Aunt the kitchen, and the staff hasn't lost their attention to detail or their care of their customers. Outstanding steaks, cooked perfectly. Very clean restaurant with a wonderful ambience.

Amber was such a wonderful waitress and we always enjoy her and the food!

Awesome Restaurant & Service Great Selections (try their Steaks, Rack of Lamb, Salmon) and a nice atmosphere. Great for special occasions.

Great food and service.beautiful atmosphere especially the fire place.

Outstanding food and knowledgeable service staff. Chef Dennis, great. Thanks for a very special evening for my dad's 92nd birthday.

This Place is much better than the restaurant it replaced. It is much cleaner, staff is friendlier, Service is wonderful. Pretty much everything you order here will be awesome.

Been twice and loved everything from the Food as well the Service is excellent !!!!
They even called me the next day to see how my evening with them was...
!!!Wow!!!

Not just the best for one hundred miles around, but one of the best anywhere. It is a piece of New Orleans hidden in the tiny town of Hayesville, North Carolina. The fish, steak and Creole entrees are as good as any of the top restaurants in the Crescent City. The atmosphere drips of a downtown NOLA eatery. There are also some savory North Carolina classics.The wine list is second to none
The staff is knowledgeable, efficient and welcoming. You will be pampered with a meal at this restaurant and leave with your tummy smiling. Prices are less than NO LA, but higher than your typical NC restaurant. A meal here is an excellent value if you appreciate great food and service.

Phenomenal atmosphere and food for an old gas station. Normally out of my price range if not traveling on business, but the quality and service were top notch.

Excellent food. Great service. My favorite in the mountains.

Very good food with a very courteous staff. I would recommend this to anyone who is in town. The best foie gras ever, even better than what we had in Paris. Food are excellent there. If you re in town, for birthday or any other occasion. Very pleasant and quiet atmosphere for a lovely dinner. Great job there! Lots complaints about the place. There s a different between eating and dinning. If you want a place to eat to fill up your stomach. That s not the place to go, but if you desire a great dinning experience you ll be at the right place.

I've eaten there several times food is good. I don't like Sunday brunch there

We love dining here. Small but quaint. Great Food.

Excellent food and service. Good atmosphere. Expensive, so I can only go for special occasions.

Food was awesome an service was great. U must try the KGB after dinner, it's a coffee drink an it's awesome.

Copper door never ceases to amaze me every time I go everything is perfectly done whether that be the table set up(amazing) to the bathrooms(super clean)and of course the food and service (extraordinary out of this world phenomenal) You must go check out the copper door worth every penny!

We drove from Andrews NC to the Copper Door in Hayesville, and it was so worth the drive. The staff was very professional and courteous and although we had no reservation (cell connection in the mountains is spotty at best) they sat us at a table in the bar within 10 minutes. We ordered the Warm brie in Pastry as an appetizer. Oh my, it was wonderful with cranberries and walnuts. I had the meatloaf and my husband had the pot roast. We both enjoyed our selections and my husband said it was the best he has ever had. Next time we visit Blue Ridge area, The Copper Door will be one our stops

The copper door was excellent and the service was great. The food was perfect and presented well. I highly recommend this place you won't be disappointed.

Save room for the creme brulee! Excellent service and food. What a gem in this small town.

Fine dining done right. . .in the mountains. Traditional menu with a Cajun flair. Our group of 5 had no clunkers - duck breast was fabulous, red grouper special was beautifully cooked, the giant pork chop juicy and moist and a crawfish tortellini was excellent. Veggie side was a bit of a snooze but the grits were awesome. Don't skip the grilled 1/2 head of romaine with Caesar dressing. Yum. As yes, we stuffed in dessert - my gluten free soul was soothed with a flourless chocolate cake. Sort of like eating brownie batter only better. There was gelato on the table but nobody offered up a taste it was too good to share. You NEED a reservation during busy season, don't miss out if coming to town. Oh, they also have a really decent wine list and bar.

Best service I've ever had, seriously! The food is amazing as well. Great atmosphere. They get it and they deliver an impressive experience from start to finish. On top of their game. So refreshing!!!

Fine, fine dining off the beaten path in Hayesville, NC. Chef Dennis' award winning restaurant is far above others claiming big city spots in food quality, service, wines, and desserts. It's where "the locals prefer to eat" as well as a spot picked out by visitors from far and wide. Don't miss it if you're out this way. #finedining #copperdoor

The food and service are always exceptional. Best restaurant in 150 mile area.

Everything was wonderful! Ordered a medium rare filet and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Even the carrots, used as a garnish, were wonderful. Service was prompt and courteous.

Only thing that could be better is larger restrooms; a single person at a time is not sufficient for such a busy restaurant.

amazing! highly recommend the scallop casino and lamb. mark was our server, attentive and knowledgeable. my friends got the tortellini and steak, everyone loved their dishes!

Always top shelf service and food. This restaurant would do well in Atlanta, B`ham, Asheville.

Paloma, our server, was awesome!!! Not only was it the vest food we have had in three forevers, she made it even better with her amazing personality, loving service, and beautiful smile! If you are reading this Paloma, thanks for the best dinner ever and we need to borrow your spoon!

Food is very good and the staff is friendly! Highly Recommend!

The food was good, but severely over priced. The steak quality was bad... like so bad that it would make Gordon Ramsey ask if they were mad for charging that price for grade D meats. Do yourself a favor, save the $75 per person (not including drinks and the coffee they offer at the end), and buy your own appetizer, salad, steaks, coffee, and desert. It will not only save you money, but the let down. On top of that, the staff was rude and snobbish. Except for our waitress, she was amazing and friendly (Virgo club ftw). I wish I remembered her name (sorry!)

The staff was very friendly and professional. The food was delicious and the wine was great. We were the only 20-something's in the place, but it was a lot of fun. Thanks for the awesome anniversary dinner!

Great food, a little up scale. We had a group of 5, we sat in the bar. The shrimp cocktail in the bar was great. The steaks were very good. Looking forward to going back again this year.

Enjoyed dinner here yesterday. At the moment they are doing a fixed menu in the restaurant and ala carte in the bar. We originally made reservations for the restaurant, but cancelled those and did ala carte in the bar after seeing the menu. The food is over the top excellent and service is very good. I wish they'd scrap the fixed menu in the restaurant, or at least offer the ala carte items they have in the bar in the restaurant. The fixed menu is a four course meal, so if you don't like a choice in one of the courses, you basically are stuck with it.

Absolutely wonderful. Have twice, it is consistent and delicious. Service excellent

Very pretty inside, classy, good service. Food was ok, but unfortunately not worth the high prices. We were told this place had amazing food, we were disappointed.

New bar access not as cozy as the original...but good food and fibe service.

The service here is excellent. The seafood chowder, crab cake and shrimp kristine were all very very tasty. The crab cake was the best I have eaten and I used to work at a four star restaurant on an island! We all had steaks, which were cooked to perfection and quite flavorful. The added mushrooms and onions were amazing. I enjoyed the bread pudding for dessert. The whole dining experience was one I definitely want to repeat.

Nice upscale place to enjoy good food and wine with friends

Beautiful restaurant with delectable food and amazing staff! I can t recommend this place enough! When I come here I am excited to try foods I ve never had before because everything here is delicious and of the best quality! (I even found a dry red wine I like!) The space is cosy with a vintage, modern twist and has pieces of art/decor done by local artists and the Chef s mother!

Great food, fantastic service... what's not to love about this intimate, classy restaurant?! Go eat there. Treat yourself.

The food is superb, the ambiance is warm yet elegant, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend

A wonderful low key yet high end restaurant. The atmosphere was wonderful, customer service was amazing and the food was off the chart amazing! Stephen our waiter was incredible and we definitely want to come back!

Favorite place to eat! You will not find better food or service anywhere!!

One of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Wedge salad was delicious with the house made blue cheese dressing. Loved this place!

Wonderful meal...steaks were perfect. Appetizers great also. Service made you feel like you were important..thanks to Kerry and of course don't forget Dennis!

Spectacular! We went there for my birthday, they placed us right next to the fire and had a birthday card written out on the table. The steak was perfectly cooked and practically melted in my mouth it was so tender. The service was amazing as well. I don't have a negative thought about this place. Go there and enjoy!

Food is always great. Our servers very attentive. Tonight we waited over an hour for our food. Our server apologized twice.

Food was sensational
Service was flawless
Deco was perfect
Great place for a great time

Best place in town. We go every year. Fantastic food and ambiance. Try the bananas foster! Made table side!

Wonderful ambience, service outstanding. Food exquisite

Great place to get engaged. They were very receptive to my request and as usual the food was fantastic

I'm sorry! I've tried to give this place 5 stars but it just didn't live up to it's hype or word of mouth reputation. I had the halibut special and it wasn't. I am fighting with myself to give it, or not give it, a second chance. Also, the atmosphere was cramped and way too loud for the $$$.

The Copper Door restaurant is one of the best dining experience we're ever had. Fine dining at its best. The seafood stuffed bacon wrapped filet was amazing. Thanks to the staff for making our anniversary special.

Scallops with root vegetables. What a great combination. Our waitress was great. My husband absolutely loved the popovers.

The curry plates are available in both chicken broth or vegan selection. And this upgraded version comes with a colorful assortment of healthy sides like pickles, salads, mash potatoes, purple rice, seaweed, and hummus. Not only are the curry plates delicious, they are so pretty to look at with all the vibrant colors. The restaurant also different types of beers.
