Edison, Craft Ales Kitchen - Asheville

Edison, with its incredible views, contemporary style, and cozy fireplace, is visually stunning. Service is consistently top notch. My kale salad was both gorgeous and tasty, I must admit, even though I can 't stand kale. Meatless choices tend to be limited here, so I really appreciate the addition of a vegan/vegetarian bratwurst, adorned with wonderful goodies and served on a pretzel bun. While I get the idea of a pretzel bun for the brat, it was very heavy without adding significant flavor, dulling the goodness of the other components and diminishing the success of the dish. The fries, though, were fantastic. The good 'ol GPI is, sadly, not what it used to be. The new owner, money grubbing corporate behemoth Omni, has banished the community from the spa. And they treat us like garbage when we attempt to view the gingerbread houses at Christmastime trying to get onto the property during the event, you may be told we are full, try back later, even though inside sources subsequently debunk that false narrative. And if you 're somehow able to get in, you 'll find jacked up parking fees during the holidays a strident, ugly example of opportunistic price gouging at its worst.

A fantastic dinner with a beautiful view! The S'mores Old Fashioned was INCREDIBLE, so fun and unique! The Ploughman's Board had an impressive variety of bites and the Deviled Eggs were some of the best I've ever had. Service was very attentive and efficient. I would absolutely recommend Edison to anyone looking for a delicious and picturesque meal!

Great service and ambiance, but a limited menu and drinks so strong you will be glad you're not driving anywhere. The Fried Green Tomatoes were chef kiss!!! The Asheville Hot Chicken Sandwich was good and the fresh crunchy pickles made it. The Salmon dish was not the best Salmon dish I have ever had. In fact I've had much better. It was the parsnip tomato medley in a lemon sauce that fell short, not the actual grade of Salmon (The Salmon itself was great, it was the flavors of the dish that was a let down). The Grove Park Inn really needs to work on the cocktails. I have tried several different bars at the resort and they all could peel paint!!! I would expect a drink selection and quality like Eddie V's at a 5 star resort! I still love you though, Grove Park Inn... xoxo

Beautiful outdoor dining w/ a view. Tasty burgers Service was great, came during lunch so it was not too busy.

The Awesome the soup, salad, salmon and pasta and the dessert were beyond what we've tried before. I can't find the words to describe how spectacularly satisfying the dishes were. Finally, kudos to our server Mallory who was delightful and accommodating with regard to some very minor alterations to our orders! Finally the interior space and the view unparalleled! We were seated directly behind the fireplace and still were able to see the mountains in the background! Needs Improvement I wish OpenSpace allowed for reservations instead of completely closing all time slots. Would have saved me the anxiety of not being able to dine at the Omni Grove Park Inn.
