Asheville Proper Reviews
We love this place. One of the best steaks in town. Sides are amazing and don’t even get me started on deserts. Staff is wonderful and sweet. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.
I had an incredible dinner with my husband for my birthday on Friday night. We don’t often rave about a restaurant and BOTH of us absolutely loved everything about Proper. Service, food, decor, speed, lighting....5 stars keep it up!! By the way we ate early and will do this again.
If you haven’t been to Asheville Proper yet- next time you are making a reservation, this is the place to do it. EVERYTHING was prepared, cooked, and plated perfectly. And when I say everything, I mean we had over half of the small plates, duck, steak, multiple sides and sauces, and multiple desserts and cocktails. Not one thing wasn’t excellent. Awesome service as well. I’m kicking myself for not going sooner.

Asheville Proper offers top-notch meals, with the octopus small plate and rhubarb butter standing out. The open kitchen provides a unique dining experience, showcasing perfectly cooked aged steaks over a wood fire. The grits and grilled okra are highlights, along with the delicious tile fish and sides like cabbage and beets. The overall experience is fantastic with attentive service in a relaxed Asheville atmosphere. The restaurant is well-maintained, and guests praise the high-quality, very well-cooked food, including steaks, fish, and creative appetizers like bone marrow and dry-aged ribeye with chimichurri sauce. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, enhanced by the aroma of the open flame in the kitchen, creating a fall-like scent. Customers enjoy the friendly service, with servers going above and beyond, even creating special drinks. The "Chef's Choice" tasting menu, featuring local ingredients and open flame hardwood cooking, has received high praise, and many recommend trying the steak. The Grove Arcade location adds to the charm, offering a lovely setting for a memorable meal.
