Burntshirt Vineyards Tasting Room and Bistro

Very beautiful location! I would recommend sitting outside if you can get a table. The view is amazing! The menu Is limited, but the portions are large and the food is good. I didn't have the wine, but there is a lot to choose from and you can get a flight and try four different wines. There are no kids meals listed on the menu, but I overheard a server telling a table that they do have kids meals available. They had live music when we were there and it was a nice vibe.

Angelique…is Amazing. We’re from Rutherford County and spent the evening in Chimney Rock for my birthday. Kris booked the tasting room for my group of 10, and set us up with Angelique. We felt like we were wanted there, from the minute the hostess greeted us. We had a GREAT time. After discussing our whole experience from where we stayed, to the different places we experienced and Burntshirt was collectively the best experience. Some of the places we went, we didn't really feel "welcomed", ( which is sad to be treated like that in your own county) but the staff knocked it out of the park. Angelique laughed with us , helped us choose our flights and food, she was on top of everything. 10/10 highly recommend!!

We stopped in for lunch and ended up doing a sweet and dry flight of wine and shared appetizers. The whole experience was amazing. Everything was delicious. The bartender was knowledgeable and attentive. Fantastic!!

Beautiful spot in the middle of chimney Rock village for wine tasting and lunch. They have two options with their wine tasting in a large menu to choose for lunch. Lots of seating inside and out. Great place to spend the afternoon.

My family and I decided to stop here for lunch and it was certainly a treat. Everything was delicious. My wife brought home some dessert wine that she absolutely loves.

The view outdoors is a must. We did a wine flight for $16 and a basket of fries as our snack. It was beautiful outside and our server was so friendly. Would definitely do this again. The patio is also dog friendly.

Great place to have a glass of wine and relax. The staff is very friendly and the location is perfect. The food is great as well. Try the cheese plate and fish and chips. Angelique, our server was very friendly as well.

Sat on the patio- man, what a view! Started with a new beer for me, loved it! The Brussel sprouts were so tender and flavorful with just the right amount of dijon/Mayo and honey; I almost didn't want to swallow them. The bbq pork egg rolls were not pleasing to my pallet because I always have a hard time with bbq inside an egg roll and fried. It was split down the middle for those of us who liked/didn't like, but the sauce was perfect, and fresh green onions made it pop. We chose the 2 smash burgers and the meatball sandwich. Oh my WOW, both burgers were magnificent. The signature burger had 2 thin and crispy patties with bacon jam in between them. If that wasn't enough, the bun was grilled and a gouda cheese sauce was great. The smash burger we thought couldn't top it but oh my. A Must try!! We didn't think we wanted dessert because we ate everything but when she said fresh homemade beignets and we are from Cajun Country- it was a YES! They were absolutely phenomenal! Must go again sooner rather than later.

A favorite place to visit in Chimney Rock! Great chefy food and delicious wine.

Good service, nice atmosphere. I ate a late lunch out on the front porch area with my wife and dog. Nice view of Chimney Rock from the outside dining area. It was a bit chili this time of year. I wish they had outdoor heaters. The good was excellent and it was nice to do a wine flight!

Food was absolutely delicious! The Spicy Lamb Ribs were by far my favorite and it wasn't even my order. Food has the right amount of seasoning for every dish we ordered. Highly recommend to stop at this location whether to just eat or after visiting the Chimney Rick State Park. Gorgeous views from the outside dining area, very calming atmosphere. Our server was very sweet and helpful choosing items off the menu. Definitely coming back again!

Absolutely wonderful experience. We were visiting for a couple days and the first thing we did was hike all the Chimney Rock trails. After the excursion we wanted to admire what we just conquered and we found the perfect place at Burntshirt! The trout was absolutely spectacular with the variety of wine we got to taste but nothing beats the view. Don’t go to early or it’s way to hot to be enjoyed!

Stopped by here during New Year’s weekend for a tasting/flight. We did the sweet tasting and enjoyed the apple wine. It has a unique taste. The staff was extremely welcoming, came back to check on us and also offered some suggestions on the most scenic route back to our hotel in East Asheville. Great experience overall.

This location has really cool architecture and had a really nice layout. The menu was limited the day we visited, but the food was very delicious. We also tried a flight of wines and enjoyed most of them. The server was fantastic and always checked in. I would definitely check it out.

After spending the day at Chimney Rock, settling down for dinner here was spectacular. The views are amazing and have nice outdoor seating. The sun does get in your face a bit, so wear a hat or sunglasses to help. They have wine tasting and good food. My boyfriend enjoyed their creole inspired pasta.

Amazing! From the atmosphere to the wine to the food, one of the best experiences ever!
Update: visited for a second time in February 2022 and it was even better than the first time! Had the roasted beets, fried green tomatoes, pan seared trout, and Cajun pasta - amazing!

A special place to create a special evening. Elevated and across the street from the river, Burntshirt offers a whole new perspective on Chimney Rock Village. The wine, the food, the view…it’s a wonderful place to take your wife and spend a romantic evening together. I want to add another Thank You to our server, Kaci, for the evening. She was so bright and friendly, so helpful and attentive. She and others like her who go to work and take joy and pride in their work really make the difference in our overall experience. Many thanks again and yes, we look forward to our next visit!

Fantastic service, ambiance, wine and food. We can't say enough how much of a great going this was. We loved the flight tasting, the beets, Brussels sprouts and trout. The view was well worth the trip alone!

We enjoyed our experience at the Burntshirt! The views were awesome and the food was great too. I got the lamb ribs which was melt in your mouth good. The wine tasting was nice as well. You can taste while you're at your table instead of the Bar. It's $10/person to taste between 6-8 different wines.

From start to finish our experience was phenomenal. From the patio table we were sat, the service, and THE WINES! My wife and I came to do a wine tasting (flights) and a snack. We each chose our 5 wines, (which are generously poured) for $15 which includes a souvenir glass per flight!

We loved each and every one of the wines that we chose. The major highlights were the Villa Rosa, Sunset, and Sugah.

"Snacks": We chose the chocolate and cheese plate, along with the beet humus. It is infact several hours later, and have dinner reservations to a restaurant, and we are actually still full from our "snacks". The cheese and chocolate plate was out of this world, along with the Beet Hummus.

All this while gazing at Chimney Rock, and a waterfall. For our last day in the area, it was definitely the highlight of our day before we go back home to Detroit.

What a great memory we will cherish forever.
