Blue Ridge Grill is an absolute gem for a fun, delicious dinner, with or without the kids.

This is a warm and memorable neighborhood restaurant that every family member is sure to enjoy! Every member of the staff is great, and you feel welcome from the second you arrive. Even on busy Saturday nights when there can be a wait time, they get you seated quickly, and usually much faster than they estimate. It is a good place to watch sports, grab a quick or lengthy meal or even pick up takeout - depending on your mood. It is clean and well-maintained, and both of the bathrooms have a changing table, which is reason enough for mom to nominate the restaurant for dinner out with the family time and again!  We like the booth seating because we always have a card game or some other game when we get out with the kids so we can keep them engaged and on their best restaurant behavior. It always makes for a more leisurely meal.

The kids' menu items range from $5-$12.25 and include the usual suspects as well as Fried Shrimp, Grilled Salmon, Filet Mignon and a half rack of ribs. They have an awesome array of appetizers, including an amazing shrimp app which has enough excellent flavor for my husband but not too much spice for me! There is an entree for every mood and appetite. They have creative salad options, burgers (the burgers are really great but so is everything else) and sandwiches, entrees and a good variety of steaks. The sides and desserts are also a perfect array of options (FYI: the ice cream is amazing!) They even have creamed spinach and baked potatoes - how's that for classic American cuisine. They are open for lunch and dinner and also host brunch on Sundays.

The prices are reasonable, the service is great and the is a very comfortable and clean environment - what's not to love!

In response to Covid, there is a large and comfortable tent in the parking lot behind the restaurant and even with it taking up some parking spaces, there is still plenty of parking.
