Native Prime Provisions

Hands down the highest quality of meat and seafood on the Plateau. I was lucky enough to get a seat for the Happy Hour menu. I ordered the tuna nigiri and was blown away. This was some of the best I’ve eaten, and I’ve lived and traveled the world. Scott, the owner and Chef, takes pride in the quality of food and was welcoming and hospitable. I ordered a glass of Sancerre and it was so fantastic I bought a bottle to take home. Scott and his crew were smoking chickens so I grabbed one to go. I devoured it once home and it was juicy and delicious, obviously sourced from a local farm. Scott is the highest quality Chef you will find anywhere and Cashiers is lucky to have him in town. In my experience, usually the best food and Chefs operate in small intimate neighborhood spots, where the focus is on the food quality, unique preparation, outstanding ingredient sourcing. During my visit, this little spot attracted friendly locals and the entire experience was warm and fun. Native Prime Provisions is in a class by itself in Cashiers. Looking forward to many great meals here!

If I could give a 10 star rating we would!! The oasis Native Prime and Provisions is our home away from home!! We are SO blessed to be able to have experiences with the food and the incredible people here - memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. The people here have become family and the food is in another world if it’s own entirely. The pure, warm and welcoming energy paired with great wines and the freshest fare will have the most eloquently trained palette wishing that these dishes will never end! And you always leave feeling amazing. We absolutely adore this place and love the people who truly make up the heart and soul. Scott and Queen T - you guys are the greatest. Can’t wait to visit again!

Simply amazing. Walked in looking for something 'small' to accompany what we had left in terms of sides/veggies in the kitchen at the house - looked over what they had and was immediately overwhelmed - they had it all. One of the guys there, assuming might be the owner, was super helpful, explaining everything and answering what could have been our stupid questions without judgement. Their fatty patty is insanely good and beyond the best burger patty I've ever had - am going to delay going home by a couple hours so I can buy up all they have. I cant possibly overstate just how amazing it was to cook and eat. We grabbed some blue fin, both fatty and non fatty and it was really dang good. Cant wait til our next time up, will go there first. Also cant wait to hit it up for lunch.

This is a fantastic market! Husband and wife owners on site stock only the highest quality, fresh seafood and prime meats you can find. The owner is also a chef and happy to share recipe tips on preparing what you purchase. So far we have loved the mountain trout, trout fish dip, oysters and scallops. Update one year later; ate at the counter…wonderful experience. Chef Scott, William & Brooke were insightful, welcoming and fun. Oysters, tuna crudo, poke with tuna, wahoo, sheep head and crab slider. We watched the seafood arriving fresh from Hawaii and all over the continental US. Prosecco was delicious as well.

A fabulous place for top of the line prime meats and fresh seafood, as well as serving gourmet lunches five days a week to a limited dining audience (9 seats). Arrive before noon if you want to get right in! Scott and Tania do a fabulous job and really make you feel at home. Two of us split 3 dishes including the delicious Chowder that was packed with clams, fish, and pork belly, the light and crunchy Fish and Rings that were tempura battered, and the Crudo was to die for! Also bought a couple of prime steaks and andouille to cook later! A great experience all around!

This absolutely used to be one of our favorite spots in town for an incredibly high quality lunch and an overall fun time. Unfortunately over the last two years it appears the main owner has completely changed tune, now taking an incredibly arrogant and selfish approach. If you aren’t recognized by him or clearly wealthy, he spares little to no time. This was evidenced by our visit today when we kindly asked how long we should anticipate waiting and if we could check out a menu, which he replied with a prompt NO and walked off to talk to current customers. We were astounded, as we initially thought he was joking, but turned out he absolutely was not. He also pulled his wife away, who is fantastic, when she tried to quickly talk to us to go and talk to someone else (we were the only ones waiting). This is not the first time we’ve had this approach from him, he has been rude to my wife before, but never chalked it up to anything more than poorly placed humor until today. I’d love nothing more than to spend a lot of money here to support a local business, but today ended that. The other recent poor review are spot on. We unfortunately will not be back until we hear of better changes. Please go back to what made you loved, the chefs and wife and business deserve better!

The worst experience in a restaurant in my entire life (and I am 65)! Our party of five sat at the bar, not knowing that each in our party was each treated so rudely. It was not until we returned to the car that we shared our individual stories. First the owner told me, when I said I didn’t need anymore water, that he would pour me as much water as he wanted to and charge us $9 a bottle. Next, he called us boring white people when we didn’t order any alcohol. Then he told my gluten free friend that she should never go out to a restaurant again and she should just stay at home. If we would have known all of this we would have walked out immediately. I do remember the sandwich being very tasty but the owners rudeness and arrogance overshadowed his cooking abilities! Nothing could get me in this establishment again, ever!

Rude, not helpful, arrogant and overpriced (even for cashiers). While it’s nice to have higher quality and rare provisions in the area, the experience is not worth it. After many of the same interactions, I’ve decided it’s not worth the poor customer experience to get overpriced meat and seafood.

Two words: trout dip. If you leave with nothing else, let it be this. But you also have to get the candied jalapeños and snag your favorite type of cracker to put it all on. We've also purchased many steaks and seafood from them and every time it's amazing. Can't go wrong, and we'd die to have something like this in Charlotte!

A must for all your meats and fishes. With such a variety of top cut meats and high-quality fishes, you will notice the outstanding quality immediately. Filet and wagu, peel & eat shrimp to their yummy lasagna.... there is something for every night of the week!! Native Prime Provisions is a great addition to Cashiers!!

I don't usually write bad reviews but am making an exception. I was in the store awhile ago with my daughter. A woman who I assumed to be the owner was there and was quite rude to me. In her defense, the store wasn't due to open for another hour but there were already other customers inside. I offered twice to go do my other grocery shopping first and come back later but she said that she might as well wait on me since I was already in the store; she said this in a very snarky tone. I bought some salmon which was very good although overpriced in my opinion. the quality of the fish is the only reason I'm giving this review 3 stars instead of 1. I however will not be going back. Customer service matters.

This place is excellent. It's a small counter for service so they cannot accommodate many diners at once. Go in the off hours and have an amazing lunch. Highest quality ingredients expertly prepared. The tartare is best ever had. Ceviche was wonderful. Can't wait to go back to try more menu items.

We just had their crab cakes for the first time and we all loved them and proclaimed they're the best we've ever had! Can't wait to return to Cashiers next year and shop there again!!!!

Tania and Scott are great. We been going since they opened and have never been disappointed. Great steaks, pork chops. Try their smoke salmon homemade and soups. Jumbo stone crabs are a must.
