    Our server who just started back at work the evening we came was marvelous. She was friendly and on point with service. The Blackbird Cocktail was amazing! The Sweet Potato Soup was also delicious. The Steak Tartare lacked robust flavor but was OK. The scallop-shrimp risotto entre was excellent. The filet was tasty but more like a pot roast then a steak. Overall its a great experience and connected in the same building with 2 great hotel bars in the Aloft and Moxy. Start at one of the hotels and finish up at The Blackbird. Makes for a nice evening,

    The Bistro was very delicious! We had an early dinner before our Candlelight tour of Biltmore House. The Burrata was a great appetizer, with pesto and focaccia. My husband and I both got the Filet Mignon and it was one of the best we’ve ever had! Followed by the flourless chocolate cake to share. Definitely recommend this spot on the Biltmore Estate!

    The food was exquisite, starting with caviar and slowly progressing through several small plates. Attentive and pleasant service. Overall a lovely experience.
