“Wow! This place has outstandingly delicious food. I tried it for the first today. The mac&cheese pie was very chessey with just a bit of golden brown crust, sinfully good. The collard greens were great,with just hint of tangy warmth. The pulled pork is by far some of the best I have ever tasted anywhere not just Asheville area. Good service. Friendly people.“

“If you like Nashville hot chicken and are in the area, I’d highly recommend Rockies. This location tends to get busy but the food comes out quickly. The parking situation can also get a bit busy at times.Our go to orders are: Pimento BLT sandwich with fried Mac poppers and a fried chicken combo with pickles. We love spice so we go with Rockies Hot but to some people this may be a too spicy. If you’re a spice novice then go with mild or original. They are tasty no matter the level.“

Pimento Che Sandwich

“After following them for years, I finally got to try out their food on Sunday at New Belgium in Asheville. I had the fried oyster sandwich. Probably the BEST fried oysters I've every had... tender, crispy and perfect. Unfortunately I couldn't have the sauce that they put with it because it contains milk, and they didn't offer me an alternative. So I just put some crystal hot sauce on it. My husband had the Seintan sandwich (vegan) that was spiced to taste like Italian sausage. He said it was quite good, and would order again.“
