Since I am staying at the Griss Mill I decided to try the restaurant that is on property. The service is friendly and they had immediate seating without a reservation since I arrived around 5:30pm. I ordered the salmon with a salad topping and chunky red sauce around the fish. It was really tasty. The meal also came with fresh bread and I opted for the spring water. It is a mostly adult restaurant, bar and rustic decor. It is not open on Mondays or Tuesdays so keep that in mind too. Not many restaurants around here open on Mondays. Too full to get dessert but, the selection is good too.

We were lucky to enjoy an evening at Waterwheel. The bar and dining room were cozy and intimate. We had a beautiful bottle of wine and the best pork chop known to man. Service was lovely.

Quite a variety of menu choices, all of which appeared to be unique in taste and presentation. The 4 of us all ordered different items and were very happy with our choices. I had the Bolognese which was superb. The rustic old mill gives you a nice ambience to enjoy each other's company and conversation. If in the Hot Springs/Warm Springs area, it's well worth the effort to enjoy the experience

I was pleasantly surprised after dining at the Homestead Resort, which is a culinary tour de force, that my wife and I would so thoroughly enjoy the delightful offerings of the Waterwheel.A staff member of the Homestead suggested if we were determined to leave the resort for a meal, that without question, we should make a reservation at the Waterwheel Restaurant.My wife ordered the “deckle rib eye,” which I had never heard of but was about to claim as my new favorite cut of steak. It consists of the outer band of heavily marbled meat that surrounds the inner core of a full rib eye steak.The small strips of perfectly cooked and seasoned steak was a symphony of tender marbled goodness.I ordered a pork chop over a bed of firm cauliflower with the most amazing cream, shallot and sherry sauce. Had I been paying closer attention to the menu, I might not have ordered the pork chop because I don’t care for cauliflower. For the first time, I loved it.The chef visited our table and gave me the basic ingredients for the sauce which will certainly become a family favorite. Thank you sir.Another surprise was the wine cellar. Rather than a pretentious and lengthy list that waitstaff often struggle to remember, customers are invited to visit the cellar and choose their own bottles which are clearly priced.The staff was friendly and attentive. The entire experience was spot-on. Very well done.

We came here to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. Seven years ago we had been here to experience a fabulous meal. So naturally we wanted to try it again. We were not disappointed. In fact, the dining experience was even better. The first course was their 6 onion soup. On our last visit, we remember the French onion soup was their calling card. This new onion soup iteration was just as good . Then the wild green salad with a unique balsamic dressing was served. Delightful flavor coupled with fresh local mixed greens was a big hit. Next, the main course arrived. It consisted of charcoal-broiled wild caught mountain trout with asparagus over a bed of spaghetti squashed. This was the best trout we’ve ever eaten. Our server Kelly provided outstanding service and guidance. One of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. And we’ve been all over the world. Expensive-yes but worth it. The food transcends the area. Schedule a reservation in the area. You will be very happy you did.

We enjoyed a family Thanksgiving meal at the Waterhouse. Everyone enjoyed all courses! I started with the pate (10/10)...perfect and the cranberry Dijon only made it better. Second course, six onion soup with crispy fried shallots and roe...(11/10). Third course, double cut Duroc chop cooked perfectly...lovely sear while being tender and juicy served with broccolini and cauliflower (10/10). And for dessert, classic pecan pie with whipped cream and vanilla ice cream (10/10).

The bartender was spastic. We waited for a special table WITH A RESERVATION and didn't get it. Server was disappointing. This was our anniversary and we should have gone somewhere else. Food was meh.
