Sunset Terrace

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Dining with a View in Asheville

Sunset Terrace sits at 290 Macon Avenue in Asheville, North Carolina, perched at the Grove Park Inn — one of the Blue Ridge region's most storied properties. The restaurant's name says it all: an open-air terrace setting where the western horizon becomes as much a part of the meal as what's on the plate.

Recognized for Its Wine Program

Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence is not handed out casually. Earning it in 2019 placed Sunset Terrace among a select group of American restaurants whose wine lists demonstrate genuine depth, thoughtful selection, and a commitment to pairing. For a dinner destination in Asheville, that kind of recognition matters — it signals a kitchen and front-of-house team that take the full dining experience seriously, not just the food in isolation.

An Evening Destination

Sunset Terrace is open for dinner, making it a natural choice for a considered, unhurried evening out. Whether guests arrive for a special occasion or simply to mark the end of a day in the mountains, the combination of elevated service, a wine list vetted by one of the industry's most respected guides, and the sweeping Asheville skyline creates something that's hard to replicate elsewhere in the region.
