1 Best Restaurant in Banner Elk, The North Carolina Mountains

Artisanal Restaurant

$$$$ Fodor's choice
Artisanal is in a barn by a country stream, but don't let that fool you: this restaurant is elegantly designed, modern, and serious about first-rate food and service. The menu, which changes frequently, features only a few entrées, such as lamb tenderloin with charred eggplant and North Carolina flounder with morels, but they are prepared perfectly. This is easily the best restaurant in Banner Elk.
