I am so happy that my indecisive self decided to give this place a try. I have not been impressed with most of the establishments in the area. My wife and I usually travel to Asheville for good food. On a Sunday there weren’t a lot of options. We decided to give backstreets a try. It’s been years since I ate here and didn’t remember. She got Cajun chicken pasta and I got possibly the best Rueben I’ve had in years. I’d say the pasta is better than Cheesecake Factory. The only negative thing was the judgy couple sitting beside us. However, they cannot control who comes through their doors. The service was excellent and I’m so happy I found a place I am happy with locally.

Backstreets is always good. The food is yummy, and the drinks are great. We've also always had great service. The only downfall is that there is always a wait, but that is to be expected with a consistently great restaurant. Worth it!

Good place to get a sandwich. Food was prepared correctly and served hot. It took a while to be waited on and to get food. Servers are friendly so that makes it nice.

One of my favorite spots for lunch. Food, service and atmosphere are always good.
Parking: It’s very popular for lunch so be sure to arrive early - 11:30 is usually best.

We love Backstreets & get takeout often. I am soooo hopeful that you all will soon add an order function to your website so that people can order online for pickup instead of having to call and wait for someone to be available to take an order by phone.

My wife and I love coming here to eat! the food and service is amazing. The owner is super nice. We come eat here at least once a week.
Excellent place for lunch or dinner. Great atmosphere, great food at a decent price and great staff.
Parking: You usually have to park in the back of the Lowe's foods parking lot.
Wheelchair accessibility: That's a ramp but you'll have to get someone to hold the door.

Hi There
Me and my wife visited for the first time. We was told there would be a 30-35min wait but it didn't take that long, more like 10min. We was seated at the bar area at a high top table. It was too crowed to dine for our liking. There was a couple seated next to us that could hear our conversations as we could their's. We ordered a bison burger with a Ceasars salad as a side. My wife requested the salad be brought out before our meal and after awhile it was brought to us. The salad was the worse Ceasar salad I've ever ate ate a restaurant. It had concrete hard croutons and grated parmesan cheese instead of shredded parmasan cheese. It also had too little ceasar dressing. The salad was a too low class salad for this type of restaurant. The bison burger was good but was falling apart. I honestly don't see how they cooked it without a grill ring to help keep it together. It needed a binder to help keep it together, it was cooked as ordered and was very good but fell apart while eating it. Wasn't too pleased with the crowdiness and to be honest the high top table and bar stools was not a good match. The table was too high for the highth of the bar stools. When sitting, the table came to about my chest and my wife, we are neither short. As a chef I was disappointed in this resuratuants quality for its class. Not saying we won't be back but wont order the same things as before neither will we sit where we did before.
