Bonito Kitchen Reviews
Ariana was my bartender and she was amazing. The vibes, the menu, even the other guests make this place an amazing date night or just general hot spot.
I absolutely loved my visit to The Hound and Bonito Kitchen! The Korean-style wings were hands down the best I’ve ever had: just the right balance of sweet and spicy, perfectly crispy on the outside, and wonderfully tender on the inside. Every bite was a treat!
The ahi tuna was another highlight. There were so many different ingredients, yet they all complemented each other beautifully without overpowering the tuna. Such a delicious, thoughtfully balanced dish!

We just had dinner at Benito and absolutely loved it.
We ordered the ahi tuna poke and the chicken wings. Everything was really good. The poke had a lot going on, with tons of different ingredients and flavors, but once everything was mixed together, it still felt really balanced and not like there was too much happening at once.
The chicken wings were also excellent. The marinade itself had a ton of flavor. The sauce on the side was a little too spicy for me personally,...read full review

Bonito Kitchen, located inside The Hound cocktail lounge in a former Greyhound Bus terminal, is outstanding in terms of both the variety of menu items and the quality, taste and innovativeness of the food. The beautiful outdoor dining space has heaters and garden areas, live music several days a week, and an indoor and outdoor counter for ordering drinks and food. Inside the decor is very cozy and inviting with many different kinds of places to sit. The atmosphere is really relaxed and perfect for just hanging out and enjoying dinner. The menu has a number of options for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free folk, plus everything is delicious. The Korean-style wings are the best ever: just the right balance of sweet and spicy, perfectly crispy on the outside, and wonderfully tender on the inside. The ahi tuna poke has a lot going on, with tons of different ingredients and flavors, but once everything is mixed together, it still feels really balanced. The Japchae and esquites are phenomenal, and the carnitas taco is loved. Portions are very generous for the price. Service is very quick and good and efficient. Bonito Kitchen has to be one of the best new places to eat in Asheville.
