User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsI recently visited Monticello. They have a "cafe" which sells over priced sandwiches and deserts. I recalled seeing Michie Tavern on the way up the mountain to Monticello and decided to try eating there. There I found a buffet, which at fiirst I thought was a bit pricey. The quality of the food made up for the price (and think it was better deal that what Monticello was selling). I bet old TJ himself would have preferred what Michie Tavern serves than what is being sold at his mountain top home. I later learned at Michie Tavern that James Monroe's home is also nearby. It seems Monticello does not mention anything but Monticello. The staff at Michie Tavern were extremely friendly. I wish they stayed open latter as I only had an hour to eat before they closed in mid afternoon.

If you're looking for "Southern Hospitality" go somewhere else. The food is excellent and the historic tavern atmosphere and location compliment the meal. We were quite shocked and surprised by the very rude, belligerent, abrupt service from the Greeter, Hostess and 2 wait staff. This sentiment was shared by several fellow diners who complained to the manager as they paid their bill. Our only suggestion -- ask to be seated in Andrew's section -- he was excellent (we were there 11/2/08).
