Nice place with pleasant and attentive service. There is an option of patio (enclosed/heated for the winter) or indoor. We had the hushpuppies, burger and the chicken & shrimp pasta and all three were very good. Stop by and check them out if you are in the area. Parking is also plentiful in the area.

First timer at lunch today. Absolutely amazing. The spicy marg was top notch. The poke nachos were on point. And, I was blown away with the Cobb salad (added grilled chicken). Everything was incredibly fresh, and delicious. And the service… super friendly and very fast. Will most definitely be back!

We went for lunch on a winter weekend- no wait! The warm enclosed patio was so nice and watching the trains while we ate was entertaining. Great food, good service, yummy drinks!

I’m in town doing a collaboration with Springmaid Mtn Retreat as an Instagram content creator (@northcarolina.nicole) I wanted to grab a local bite to eat. Stopped by after seeing a photo of the Trout BLT. And it did not disappoint! Great food all around!

Thanks guys. Really good job, great food. Nice time with family.
2nd visit here... the 1st was wonderful in all aspects - food, service, cleanliness, atmosphere. The 2nd visit was exactly the same.We have tried to dine on three other occasions, but the line to get in was very long and didn't have the time to wait, but we would have waited if we were able - this is how good this place is!!Dahria (?) is just the best - she always makes sure thar we have all that we need, and she is quite nice.The place itself is relaxing...even the restrooms are nice - clean, pretty. We drive over from TN. This is, by far, the best place between Johnson City and A'vl - definitely beats any places in JC area and better than most places we have eaten at in Avl!! Can't wait to return

This place was great! Really cool atmosphere outside, super friendly staff, and delicious food! They went out of their way to set up a heater even tho it wasn't that cold. We got the hush puppies for an appetizer and the jerk Alfredo and ultra Alfredo they were some of the best pasta dishes we've had in a while. Definitely one of the best options in the area.

Excellent place to eat, the outdoor patio was so much fun!
Never had a bad meal...The wait is worth it if you arrive at a busy time.Everything is prepared fresh daily and their bartenders are spot on.Bloody Mary is my favorite, and the Margaritas are my wife's...Chicken Alfredo and the Petite Steak and Monster big salad are our go to meals.PSDining on the patio during the winter is warm and cozy...
Found this place by accident. My wife and I found it one of the best meals we've had in a long time. We both recommend the Cuban sandwich if you go there it's amazing :-)
Highly recommend the Veggie Paella with the salmon! It's basically an arugula salad with quinoa so not really paella but it's delicious! (Forgot to take a picture!)Also has the trout sandwich. It would have been good if it had more trout in it. the trout was a little piece that was so small it didn't come to the end of the bread. They should have called it a fried tomato and bacon sandwich. If you like bloody Mary's...this was by far the best one I have ever had. Just get it
