“Absolutely delicious! Everything is amazing!! Highly recommend!!“

“Thank you Ms.Google! I was hoping to find a place for breakfast that wasn't Waffle House so I did a search and Miami popped up. I'm not local, but I visit family often. I've driven by it several times without noticing. Never again! Breakfast is excellent and inexpensive. The patty sausage is house made and delicious.“

“Took my family to eat for lunch. The food was great and the service was too!“

“We visited the area the week of Aug. 2-6. Our first visit. Take out only. Not a problem. They have a system to get you in and out quickly, with hot food, done as ordered. I eat my hotdogs pretty plain, husband eats his ATW. We loved our food. We ate outside on one of several small booths. This is a locally owned business. We strive to find these when we travel. Glad we found this one.“

“Ribeye was outstanding, 2 vegs and bread. Good menu items and fast service“

“Everything is great! I got a latte with sugarless vanilla flavoring! And an almond croissant. Both awesome!!!“

“We dined at Huli Sue's last weekend, and everything was FANTASTIC! We had the sampler platter and added the mac and cheese. The food was absolutely amazing! The barbeque was so good, and the mac and cheese was super flavorful and cheesy. I had a Mai Tai, and it was honestly the best one I've ever had. Our server was super friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. The other servers were as well. I highly recommend this restaurant, and I cannot wait to return!!!“

“Best burger I've ever had, and I don't mean best GF burger, I mean best burger, period. Roast vegetables were great too.

Daphne, our server was attentive and service was fast. Mind you, this was post-Helene, and they were slammed, so I would have forgiven slow service but that wasn't the case at all.

We would definitely be back!

“Great pork tenderloin and steak and nice presentation!! Pretty ambiance inside the restaurant and especially because the strip mall location is deceiving. The non-alcoholic chardonnay ordered by my friend did not taste like a chardonnay but more like a sparkling drink and the waiter kindly took it back and removed it from the bill. The 4 of us shared a delicious peach tart for dessert!“

“Excellent service and delicious food.“

“Super Friendly service. Tasty foods.“

“First time at Salt Face Mule tonight. This place is awesome, highly recommend anyone in the Asheville area to come check this place out. Such a fun atmosphere, great food, and a great time all around. Our bartender Kyle was an awesome guy who gave us great recommendations for things to see and do while we’re visiting here. We’re visiting family in the area and I’ll definitely be back to this place the next time we’re back in town. Awesome job tonight guys and we appreciate it! - Chase and Rose“

“What an amazing place for groups! We are very pleased with delicious food and absolutely superb staff! Highly recommend! Will be a definite for all my future trips in this area.“

“One of the best nice meals I’ve had out in a while. We started with an appetizer of hush puppies with goat cheese and they were some of the best I’ve ever had. I had the gnocchi and my wife had the pork chop. Both were so flavorful and great portion sizes. For dessert we had panna cotta and it was a perfect way to finish the meal. Service and atmosphere were nearly perfect. I couldn’t recommend this place more.“

“Food was great our waitress was great and informative.“

“best food truck in Asheville. the food is outstanding and the service is great.“

“We had absolutely wonderful service & delicious cocktails during our visit in Asheville. Meticulously crafted cocktails by a very knowledgeable mixologist (can’t remember his name). We will definitely be back next time we’re in town.“

“We were a party of 8...in the summer...around lunchtime...so it was crowded but we were seated quickly..had biscuits right away and our food came out quickly...portions were huge..(.I think the meatloaf slice was a pound of beef by itself.)..Staff were courteous and helpful with our wheelchair and walkers.food was reasonably priced... our only "negative" comment would be that some desserts ran out :( but everything else was great!“

“Farm Dogs has such a warm energy. As someone new to Asheville from NYC— I’ve come to love the S&W food hall— especially Farm Dogs, and ESPECIALLY Phin! Phin’s personality is fantastic and always good vibes. Plus the hot dogs are made with lots of love. If you love hot dogs and hospitality, Farm Dogs is it.“

“The burgers and our service were amazing“

“great spot for EDM music. Friendly bartender and nice people“

“A very fun place to go! We loved our visit there and Grandma and the Great Grandkids thought it was a Blast…. From the past for Grandma. Everything was clean, service was great and the wait was not too long. The Malts were delicious too.“

“We are staying for a few days and have been enjoying the property. Beautiful! Went to the lounge to enjoy a drink before dinner, Savannah greeted us right away and provided great recommendations for wine. She was super kind! (We bought a bottle & will return soon!)“

“We were looking at adding a den onto our cabin and met with three different contractors. We felt comfortable with Josh and we made the right choice. We are part timers here in waynesville so we really needed someone we could trust. He kept us informed throughout the construction and made great suggestions. Can’t say enough how thankful we are that we chose A and B. Thanks for a job well done“

“Gotta love the one stop! The pizza is really great, they have amazing live bands coming through, Mono means one really blew my expectations the other night. Just popped in to see what was going on and was very pleasantly surprised! Bartenders are kind and talented and really the whole team is extremely caring and nice! They keep you coming back. Keep doing what y'all are doing, the one stop is an Asheville staple.“

“Had a great Turkey Pita and White Ale on the patio with friends. Excellent wooded vibes and great food selection!

I would recommend 1) Something to keep the tables from wobbling. 2) A menu with accurate pricing. My bill was different than the menu suggested.“

“We came here as for our date night dining adventure, which we do so rarely, and it was nothing short of a wonderful experience! We had the nachos, artichoke quarters, and Buffalo shrimp as our appetizers, then the fish & chips, and beet salad as our entrees, with ginger beer and a liquor flight as our drinks. The food was all so flavorful and beautiful, the attention to detail in the plating was fantastic, and everything arrived quickly. The apps were amazing, the batter on the shrimp was fantastic, the artichokes were scrumptious, and the nachos were loaded and wonderful, larger than expected! The sauces served with the apps paired perfectly with them,and I'm already craving the artichokes again, just writing this! The salad was a perfect balance of sweet and savory, as the spring mix was tossed in a vinaigrette first, then topped with the beets, goat cheese and candied pecans, which gave it a perfect amount of sweetness. The fish & chips were amazing, the cod fillets were perfectly battered and fried, no fishy taste at all. The tallow fries were delicious, and reminded us of how yummy fries used to taste, when tallow was the norm. My husband declared these to be the best fish & chips in Asheville, and he's a tough critic! We ended up getting a bottle of the Rye Whiskey to take home, as that one really stood out on the liquor flight. Since we bought a bottle, the price for the liquor flight was comped, which we thought was a very nice touch. The service was impeccable- our server, Lauren, was calm, friendly, informative, and was there exactly at the right time, for every interaction. We went at 6:30 on a Saturday night, and our table was ready with waters waiting for us as soon as we walked in- I felt like royalty! The atmosphere was perfect, classy but casual, the kind of place that you could spend a lot of time in, and at no point did we feel rushed. The prices were very reasonable for this level of dining, and we will definitely be back- I think we found a new date night place- and a good reason to do that more often!

Parking: There is plenty of parking, which is free and very accessible.“

“Had an amazing meal and experience at Carmels. We had our two chihuahuas celebrating our wedding anniversary. We live a rather hectic life and this year after a tough year of tremendous loss of family members all we could get together was a day trip which is not the usual for our birthday to anniversary celebrations. We were tired and hungry and after being disappointed by a couple other spots that claimed to be “dog friendly “ now I believe all happened for a reason. My husband and I were met by awesome staff outside that loved on our fur babies and sat us at one of their outdoor patio tables then served us some of the most delicious food and stopped by randomly to love on our girls some more. Definitely highly recommend this place if you plan visiting Asheville. We will definitely be back.“

“This was an exceptional meal that was one of the best in the city. The burata was very rich and paired so well with the peppers and olive oil. The red beans and mushroom dish was layered with so many ingredients, and every one had a unique flavor and texture. The squash was sweet and salty, and the fig was a remarkable bite, but the mushrooms were the star. There were easily 5 different varieties in the dish punctuated with parsley and taragon. Finally, the peach panacota was drizzled with sweet and strong bourbon sauce. The service was personal and attentive. A real outstanding meal.“

“Great food. Locally sourced. Friendly, well-trained staff.“

“I ordered the grilled salmon with ricotta-filled gnocchi in a pumpkin cream sauce. It came topped with micro greens and mixed fruit with the most wonderful acidic dressing. The balance of flavors, textures and visual appeal made this dish just off the chart incredible! And the service was fantastic even with a packed house. I am looking forward to revisiting!“

“We ate brunch at the Exchange and it was excellent. Food and service were great. Savannah took great care of us and even surprised us with a slice of cake for my wife's birthday. Definitely recommend the basket of pastries for the table.“

“Not only was the service and food fantastic but we were so very impressed with the outcome of what could have been a very bad experience. One of the ladies from our party left her purse and we had been away from the restaurant for well over an hour and a half and as we were leaving the grounds she realized she had left her purse. The shuttle driver promptly got us back as quickly as possible and although the restaurant was closed, we were able to flag down an employee still working inside. They kindly opened the door and let us search and it turned out an employee had already submitted the purse to front desk. We were abundantly grateful to get the purse back and all its contents as well. In today's world this happens less and less. The Biltmore has wonderful employees, and we were very pleased for this.“
