Since I am a happy hour junkie I rarely do sit down "fancy" meals. Husband was out of town and a friend had wanted to try Christopher's. being that is is in my backyard I never think to go here. I have done happy hr at Crush and his old place on the other side of the Biltmore but haven't had a sit-down here. Anyway it was so cozy at the bar where we sat. Friendly server and amazing menu. There is not one thing that didn't look appetizing on the menu. We started with the wild mushroom soup with foie gras and the escargot encroute. Both fantastic! for the main we shared the bone-in prime rib ($60) and a side of truffle frites ($8). To be honest the fries didn't taste like truffle to me?? and they r double fried so not a fave.
This spot is for me a special occasion place. Dinner would have been $200 with tip if we didn't have a restaurant.com cert. But needless to say with the discount its a steal! I will be back to try dessert next time. We were so stuffed after a btl of wine and 2 glasses of bubbles. I also wanna try the burger on happy hour : )
