“We had a delicious and thoughtfully prepared meal ...Tumeric Chickpea Soup start followed by the perfect fall preparation of salmon with spaghetti squash and the juiciest, tastiest pork chop. Service was kind and attentive and atmosphere charming . We will be back“

“Had to stop by Harvey’s during a recent visit to Hendersonville because my favorite restaurant in Falls Church is also named Harvey’s 😂

Amazing food and service, every single item we had was incredible and our server was so kind and diligent! Absolutely will be coming back for my next visit!!!“

“We LOVE Mike's. They literally helped us set up an impromptu wedding after our plans kicked the bucket. The staff is always super nice, helpful, easy to talk to. Love that they're doggo friendly on their front patio area. Menu is tasty and reasonably priced, sundaes are legitimately the best ever (real fruit, yay!). Favorite diner for life!“

“BBQ Oysters ...Oh my sooooo good, we had to order a second plate of them! And our server was amazing.“

“My sweet friend and neighbor took me to Tooley’s for lunch for my birthday today. We were greeted at the door with a smile and had a very pleasant waitress. The sandwiches we ordered were delicious. The homemade desserts were even better! Will definitely be back! Thanks for a lovely birthday lunch!🥳“

“5/5 recommend this spot! Jesse’s service is amazing and I can’t wait to go back. Thank you for being so amazing!“

“The chefs are brilliant and inspired. The service is en pointe. There are bartender crafted cocktails which are absolutely delightful. The atmosphere is wonderful... these mountains frame this farm so perfectly. The menu is delectable in its options and seasonal variability. I'm a 50 year, born here local... this is my 8th time enjoying eating here at The Silo at Horse Shoe Farm. So, this is not a one off, or a hastily performed review. I've partaken all the James Beard Asheville chefs for a while now...as well as any and all "new best thing restaurant" that comes to be. Nothing...I repeat, nothing in WNC compares to The Silo. You will not be disappointed. And if...if you are and you communicate it- they will make it right. You will have one of the best meals of your life.“

“I am from Connecticut and you can not find good seafood out here until we found this place. We live an hour and a half away and it is well worth the trip. Awesome food ?“

“It was really a wonderful night food was great I was hesitant to celebrate my birthday there cause the last time we were there the food wasn’t good. But this time everything was delicious my family loved all their foods“

“it was well worth the 20 minutes we got lost and 40 minutes for where we live the best we've ever had everyone try it you want be disappointed“

“Oh my goodness, if you haven't tried the shrimp & grits you are missing out. Theirs is most definitely among the best, if not the best, I've ever eaten. And being a seafood lover, I've eaten a lot!😄“

“Great little spot with reasonably priced beer, food, and even candy. The atmosphere is cozy and laid-back, mostly drawing a mature crowd, so it's generally peaceful. The movie selection, though, does seem geared towards this same crowd—more classic dramas and lighter films, which isn’t a bad thing, but it would be nice to see some more variety. Adding action-packed options like *John Wick*, horror, or thriller flicks would make the lineup feel more balanced. Overall, a fantastic place to unwind, but a little more genre diversity would be awesome!“

“Great sandwiches friendly staff.“

“Great burgers and beers. Chicken sandwich is also tasty“

“The fries were delicious as was the Philly Cheese steak. And my said the chicken tenders were the best she's ever had!“

“My daughter and I enjoyed our dining experience. We had an issue and the staff immediately took care of it and went above and beyond. Our sever Sheldon was fantastic and made us feel welcome. We will be back.“

“I just ate here for the first time on Saturday. Absolutely adorable place, fresh, yummy food & great shopping!! I look forward to coming back next time I’m in town!“

“Staff is always friendly. There is not a lot of indoor seating, but there are heaters outside should you have to sit out there. The food is always fresh, and bread is baked daily. I love the tahini goddess dressing for salads. It's amazing! Great place for lunch! I had an iced Chai tea for the 1st time today that was delicious as well.“

“Amazing food and wonderful staff!! First time here and had a wonderful experience! Will definitely come here again and I give them 5 stars. 🥰“

“My husband and I have been here several times for an event with a club. Today for the first time, we stopped by for lunch. We were not disappointed. The service was great. Our food was amazing. The entire experience was worth the drive out. If you haven't dined in, be sure you do. We will certainly be back.“

“This place is great! Great bartender, great bar and I just had a Philly cheesesteak with jalapeños that was off the chain!!! Spicy and delicious. Been all over and lived in Colorado for 35 plus years with great Mexican fare - this the best quesadilla I have ever had…..says the 61 year old man…washed down with $3 bottles of yuengling.“

“This is easily the best Waffle House in the country I’m not joking. The hashbrowns are crispy (NOT GREASY). The eggs are fluffy. The waffle is perfection. The cook knows what he’s doing. To all the people here giving bad reviews (who are you and what planet do you live on - must be way outside the stratosphere because you gotta come back down to earth). Stacey, our server, was the sweetest. We showed up at 11pm. At that hour, you wouldn’t expect the late shift to be so upbeat and kind, but Stacey went above and beyond. This location will make you believe in Waffle House and America. Can’t wait ‘till our next visit :)“

“Our usual go-to for breakfast when out of town. Each one is a different experience and we did find the expected friendly service and good food here.“

“Great service! Delicious treats!“

“😋Comforting home cooked meals, nice and cozy nostalgic atmosphere.“

“Great brisket! Nice folks too“

“From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The wings were some of the best I’ve had in years—big, meaty, and offered in a wide variety of flavors so there’s something for everyone. What impressed me most was the menu. It’s not just wings!! they truly have a huge selection, from hotdogs to Mexican food to classic favorites. The variety makes it easy to bring the whole family because everyone will find something they love. The prices are the best I’ve seen in a long time, and the service was top-notch. The laid-back, fun atmosphere made it a place where you can relax and enjoy yourself. Plus, it was very clean, which says a lot about how much pride they take in their restaurant. For a place that’s only been around a year, they’re absolutely knocking it out of the park. We will definitely be back..and I highly recommend giving them a try!“

“Stopped in for a quick bite on our way home to Pennsylvania. It was decent service, quick ordering. We were in and out in about 20 minutes. The price you can’t beat either… $16 for 2 people, plus a $4 tip. Very reasonable. Fresh food as well!“

“Friendly service and great food“

“Had a great experience today going to JB for the first time. Greeted us when we first walked in with a smile and a hello. Got to meet the owner of JB. They had plenty of sandwiches and bagels and other food items to choose from! You will not be disappointed in JB when you show up! I highly recommend them!“

“Went here for Thanksgiving dinner. All of the staff did a fantastic job in taking care of the amount of people they had throughout the day. Can't say enough. Food was Great. Congratulations Golden Corral on a job well done by all staff.“

“My wife and I took a homeward detour coming back from the beach and visited the Burntshirt Vineyards. We then headed for the St. Paul Vineyards, only to find that they were fairly crowded, and that we'd previously visited there on an Asheville trip four years earlier. As we were driving out, I realized that we were only minutes away from Sonic happy hour, and an iced tea sounded like something I could get charged up about. Maria began looking for one on her phone, but something about the surrounding terrain seemed familiar, and I told her I sensed a Sonic close by. As expected, one appeared as we crested a hill, and it was the same one we'd had lunch at four years earlier. Burgers and iced tea were very good. Servers on roller skates continue to astound me. I have an aversion to body casts.“

“I can’t remember the last time we ate at a Denny’s restaurant. Friends asked us to meet them there and we were glad we did. We enjoyed good food and our waitress, April, did an excellent job waiting on us. We will be back.“
