12 Best American Restaurants near Mars Hill

“After we lost our go-go spot in Marshall, we wound up driving north in search for a new breakfast spot.
I’m SO glad that we found this excellent spot. Delicious!! The food is closer to “what I’d make at home” meaning I CAN actually eat the breakfast and not feel like I’m bloated or had overly processed food.
Furthermore. LOCAL options?!? I can pay an up charge and have local eggs? DONE!! Yes, please. I love the choice of being able to support the future of where the food comes from. I don’t want to support mass-farming simply by eating at a Waffle House, ya know. ;)
Highly recommend to check this spot out. The owner is also a great guy to have a chat with. Very happy to support this location and their family that has helped so many others. Keep on keeping on.“

“My wife is the one from NC and her Mother had a cute shop in the shopping center behind waffle house, it was called Fabulous Finds. Well one day my wife asked me if I'd like to try some real good food over at The Wagon Wheel. We went 8 yesterday ago and still go to this day.“

“Jimmy’s Munch Box is a hidden gem that everyone needs to try! From the moment you walk in, the friendly and hardworking staff make you feel right at home. It’s refreshing to see young people working so diligently to ensure every guest has an exceptional experience. The food? Absolutely top-notch! The appetizers alone are worth the trip—especially the bacon-wrapped jalapeño poppers, which are bursting with flavor. Whether you’re in the mood for a juicy burger or a perfectly baked pizza, Jimmy’s delivers every time. But the real star of the menu for me is the hot honey garlic wings—crispy, sweet, spicy, and downright addictive. Jimmy’s Munch Box has officially become one of my go-to spots for great food and a welcoming atmosphere. Do yourself a favor and check it out—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Very good food. I would recommend this for everyone to go and eat.“

“FIRST: The people are the best. Over the years they have become my friends. SECOND: They have eggs and hamburgers 24/7.“

“Great service and excellent food !!! Ashley was our sever and she was awesome. The Bistro Burger and fries was off the hook and the General Tso wings were uniquely good . Definitely will be back !!!“

“I had breakfast; two eggs over-medium, bacon, Grits, toast, and coffee. The food was cooked to order, hot, and delicious at a good price. The staff were attentive and pleasant, and the atmosphere was enjoyable. Check it out if you haven't already, and I will look forward to eating there again.“

“Great food, service, & beer selection! The fried pepperoni & cheese curds were delicious. My wife liked the firecracker shrimp Alfredo, but said it had some spice. The Greek platter was amazing as well. I got the combination to try both the lamb & chicken. The chicken tasted like souvlaki & was good, but I favored the lamb. I typically would order an old fashioned, but they did not have large blocks of ice. Given what Helene’s impact on western NC, I was happy to see this restaurant thriving & folks in good spirit. This place is a gem for the community, and I highly recommend.“

“First time here. I'm starved after Helene 🌀
So far the atmosphere is yummy in itself. I know I'm going to be "Fat and Happy"
Just the aroma and visual of the food so far is 💯🫶
Highly recommended salad just arrived 😋“

“Locals from Fairview and our first time at the glass onion. Met some wonderful cousins from out of town. Started with the pear and beet salad, which was delicious. Then of course we had to share an order of the wonderful fries. I had the trout and substituted kale for the side dishes. They also made a gluten-free for me. My husband had a ribeye which he says was one of the best he's ever had. My cousins had the ravioli in the same and they loved it. The place is small and loud and I think we might've been the loudest of all. Interesting artwork on the walls and a real fast pace place. Will definitely be back.“

“Friendly staff, great choices off the wall menu. The inspection rating was 97.5. Browse the walls and collect local and family history. Highly recommend if you enjoy comfort food.“

“We stopped here for breakfast at apx 11 am this morning, 07/07/23. We sat at the counter due to all seats being taken, busy place. Service was great, food was excellent, staff were all friendly and helpful and the camaraderie among them was easy and comfortable . The two 'grillmasters 'Bob' and ? sorry I forgot to ask her name ..were amazing to watch. 8 plates up and no tickets, mind boggling. Breakfast was an enjoyable experience. we will make this a regular stop on travels. The Priddy of Danville KY Five ⭐ ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐“
