The Chimney Rock Inn is always an experience. The rustic atmosphere and delicious food make any night complete. My girlfriend took me here for my 22nd birthday and I couldn't have been happier. The wait wasn't too bad, even for a Friday night. The waitress was very polite and service was quick. The menus are a newspaper style that really adds to the overall feel of the place. The loaded tater-tots appetizer was fantastic. It was like you combined loaded nachos with golden brown tater-tots....why hasn't anyone thought of this before?!

​I went with the classic Rock '55 pie for my main course and my girlfriend decided to get the standard plain. My pizza was perfectly crispy with a thin crust and rich marinara sauce. The cheese was very fresh, as was the basil littered on top. The combination of flavors was brought full circle with the smokey taste coming from the base and crust. The sauce definitely helped make the pie and reminded me of homemade marinara. I managed to trade my girlfriend a slice in order to try the plain and that too was high quality. They use the perfect amount of sauce and cheese to form a really great, standard pie. For dessert, I went with the lava cookie, but I seriously need to try everything on their dessert menu; it all sounded so good. The lava cookie tasted so fresh with rich, creamy vanilla ice cream and hot molten chocolate. Definitely, a match made in heaven. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, especially the pizza lover.
