Love this place! Great food and excellent service. New chef Graham is very personable and I like that he comes out to the table to be sure everything is up to expectations. The setting can't be beat. I highlighted recommend you avail yourself of this dining experience.

We had a wonderful Sunday brunch celebrating a good friend's birthday. The food and service, both excellent and the new chef is not only talented but came out to personally greet us and in the end, a surprise birthday dessert! The Ascot is now on the top of my list for one of the best restaurants in Haywood County!

My wife and I loved the experience so much that we joined the club on the first night. The food was excellent, prepared quickly while still making a strong first impression. The patrons who were finishing up when we were getting our meals clearly knew the wait staff intimately; the whole place felt comfortable and familiar. The chef came out to address my anaphylactic food allergies. All in all, we had a nice night.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. The crab cakes were the best I've ever had. The chef actually came to our table and asked how we were doing and if we liked our food. It was overall an excellent experience.

The Ascot club has a new British Chef. He has expanded the menu and added some British treats. The location and view are beautiful.
