“Our office Christmas Party was made complete by lunch from Griff’s Kitchen & Bar! As always, the food was excellent and the service was great! Whether it’s for a special occasion, or you just want a great meal… or maybe you’re too tired to cook and want to grab takeout… Griff’s Kitchen & Bar is a great choice!“

“Fantastic meal last night at Jargon! The ginger carrot 🥕 soup was incredible. We paired it with Asparagus and risotto. The strawberry dessert was amazing and the after dinner drinks with espresso beans were perfection.“

“We were on our way through Asheville and found this little gem after our first choice was closed. Do glad we did. \n\nThey were quite full/busy but they fit us in and were very kind and gracious about it. \n\nThe entire experience was special. About four different staff members checked on us throughout our evening. \n\nTheir knowledge of the menu was incredible, and especially their very extensive wine list. \n\nWe started with their “Darling” bread and butter. Absolutely amazing. I would have been happy with just that. \n\nTheir offerings of different locally grown greens was amazing. \n\nWe had the lamb kebabs and rabbit pasta for our main. Our outstanding sever recommended two incredible wines to pair. \n\nAn incredible experience from start to finish.“

“Never disappoints, always consistent service with amazing food. Our favorite Asheville restaurant.“

“Incredible food, drinks, and views! Definitely make a reservation and catch the sunset. 10/10 experience.“

“What a great place to celebrate our birthdays. Two from KY and two from Augusta GA to enjoy celebrating all four of us having birthdays. Stuart who waited on us was EXCELLENT. We asked him about the damage to Asheville and we could hear it in his voice how hurt he was because others suffered so much. He was very gracious that we chose Asheville to celebrate our birthdays. I had the best shrimp and grits ever and I'm 73. Every meal the fried oysters, salads, Reuben Sandwich there is no negative experience. I hesitated to order the banana pudding but was intrigued by the description. So glad I did, it was so different than what I've ever had but the BEST I've ever had. Thank you to everyone working that day on 1/22 that wished us Happy Birthdays and made this such a wonderful memory for all 4 of us. Very welcoming, great personalities but above all GREAT FOOD.“

“Happy hour: 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm M - F
If you love beer or cocktails and you need an early dinner, this is a great happy hour. You can get a huge chicken sandwich that tastes high quality for $9 or a delicious burger for $12. Drinks range from $3 - $10. They have plenty of cocktail and beer options during the happy hour as well. The only thing I wish they did was a red and white house wine with the happy hour menu as well. Other than that this is perfect for people who want a fancy delicious experience without the high price tag.

The happy hour definitely made me want to come back for the full dinner menu! I will 100000% be back.“

“My friend and I decide to go to Little D's due to an extremely long wait at another establishment. I'm so glad this is where we ended up! EVERYTHING is top notch- decor, service, cocktails & food! We sat at the bar for immediate seating. There is not one dish we tried that needed anything! Perfectly seasoned and plated with innovative flavors, textures & artistry. Thank you for the amazing experience.“

“Fantastic food. Fantastic service. Lovely ambience in the space. It feels like the kitchen really cares about the food it brings out. One thing I particularly liked was how well all the dishes were seasoned. A bit of heat here, a bit of spice there, and a dash of sweet when needed. And speaking of sweet, the lemon curd cheesecake is a wonder. I love it when the cheesecake part of the cheesecake isn't oversweet. The lemon curd gives a sweet and tart compliment to the creaminess of the dairy in the dish. It's dangerous, I tell you! We'll be back for more.“

“The Sierra Nevada brewery is awesome! First off the facility is absolutely fantastic. It’s large but the building and the entire campus are immaculately clean & well kept. It still looks brand new. The tour itself was excellent providing great historical content & insight into their state of the art current operations. Following up the tour with a visit to the Taproom restaurant is a must. The food is phenomenal & the service is top notch. Finally, it was so enjoyable to finish the day with a beer on the patio. I give the Sierra Nevada brewery tour & Taproom my highest recommendation. Can’t wait to take other friends for a visit.“

“Had lunch with you yesterday. very impressed great service delicious food. Glad I found you will return. 👏👏“

“15 of us went there for a farewell luncheon for a coworker. The atmosphere, the service, and the food were exceptional.
We played miniature golf afterwards, and had a blast!
If you want to feel like a kid again and have a delicious meal, I highly recommend Salt Face Mule Brewing Co.“

“We are visiting my in laws who are not fancy people. My husband however has been testing out a gluten free diet so we tried this spot out for his birthday. We took our 2 month old in a stroller- they were super accommodating. My in laws loved their dishes and had not one complaint. Which speaks volumes!! The Mexican coke was so good compared to usual sugar sodas!“

“I have to say that this was THE BEST dinning experience of my life! I traveled and visited many places but the service that we received at this place was beyond exceptional!!!

“Great breakfast, friendly staff and fun atmosphere! Biscuits were amazing and the sausage gravy to die for!“

“The food was spot on, and the service was excellent. The interior has a really cool atmosphere. One thing to note is that the photos make the restaurant look much larger than it actually is—it's a small, intimate space with vaulted ceilings, which I personally enjoyed. The menu is also intentionally small, allowing them to focus on quality, and it appears they rotate the offerings regularly.“

“My daughter and I stopped in Mt pleasant location today for the first time ! It was yummy ! Can’t wait to go back ! The pork belly was off the chain !“

“We dined at Zambra for a birthday celebration while visiting Asheville and were blown away by the fantastic flavor combinations, creative menu and the vibe of the restaurant. The service was amazing as well, so that always brings a great meal together. I’d highly recommend Zambra and will dine there again next time I’m in town“

“Love love love! Ate here for a cute birthday outing with my boyfriend and parents and I loved it. The sangria was refreshing and the complementary bar nuts were super tasty! The waitress was friendly and prompt. We also ate dinner and it was very good. We shared the charcuterie and I got the turkey club and thoroughly enjoyed both. When the waitress found out it was my birthday, she asked what dessert I would like, on the house. I had the BEST chocolate chip cookies with ice cream. We sat outside and had a beautiful view of the mountains and some wild turkeys.“

“This local group of restaurants has been serving really good food with great service and a comfortable atmosphere since 2001. Chicken and waffles are there, of course, but loads of other stuff, including spinach/potato cakes with tomato gravy, one of my favorites. Highly recommended.“

“Went in with high expectations - my pancakes were not warm and a bit too sweet Coffee was ok - egg meal was large and my kids liked it I thought it was pricey compared to other meals I had in Asheville“
