50 Best American Restaurants near Weaverville

“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.“

“I'm only giving 4 out of 5 simply because I feel there's always room to improve things. With that being said our burgers were delicious and the fries just right, I requested my tater tots be cooked just a little extra for a little crisp and they done excellent didn't cook the taters out and give me hard brick they was great just right imo. My wife rarely ever finishes all her food at first and slowly nibbles it away as we work but not this one she devoured it and her fries all at once, That alone is enough to convince me that it's worth the money especially being locally sourced and owned. Staff was excellent and food was done fresh and quickly. Have been back but my next stop is going to be for breakfast so keep an eye out for a breakfast update“

“This place is a true diamond in the rough. It. doesn’t look like much from the outside, but once you try their food, you’ll be hooked. The menus is extensive and they have something for everyone, and every thing I’ve had has been excellent. The Prime Rib is delicious and at 22.dollars can’t be beat! . The derive is friendly and knowledgeable and Windy the waitress is true gem.. ask to be seated in her section and you won’t be disappointed. I could easily say this is one of my favorite restaurants in the Asheville area.“

“Today for lunch they had a salmon over pasta noodles special which was one of the best Salmon dishes I have ever had…If anyone from management reads this, please put this dish on the regular menu. Fantastic!!“

“This was a Sunday brunch dine in at the bar for us. Menu is sprinkled with what I would consider "brunch" items plus the typical lunch items. I had the tavern breakfast: eggs poached were perfect, for some reason the grits always get my attention (and I prefer potatoes), the sausage patty which is locally sourced is 100%. My spouse had a more typical lunch item of a fried chicken Cobb salad. All great. For the record, it is excellent to have another brunch option on Sunday in downtown Weaverville. Thank you.“

“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 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐⭐ ⭐“

“Been a customer in 2007 and still in Love with the place.“

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

“On Saturday, February 14th, I went downtown for a solo dinner at Huli Sue’s and quickly realized I had completely forgotten Billy Strings was in town for the weekend. Between Valentine’s Day and a sold-out show within walking distance, downtown was absolute chaos. Walking into Huli Sue’s, though, felt like stepping into a well-oiled machine. The hostess (I truly wish I had gotten her name) greeted everyone calmly and kept the flow of guests organized and welcoming. They were operating on a reservation system for the evening honestly genius given the circumstances. Even as a party of one, the wait was about an hour and a half, which I completely understood. Knowing I was craving their food, she suggested takeout. She even let me sit at the table where they roll silverware so I could look over the menu and wait for my roommate to text their order and never once made me feel rushed. While I waited, I watched her run the entrance like an absolute goddess. She was pleasant, efficient, and incredibly organized. Every table being notified was already set, down to water poured and ready. When guests arrived, she greeted them with genuine enthusiasm and walked them to their tables like they were honored guests. Downtown was a madhouse. People kept walking in without reservations, and she calmly explained the wait. When guests were understandably discouraged, she let them know they were accepting reservations for the 15th and I honestly didn’t hear a single person turn her down. She made everyone feel welcome. Despite the cold and the madness outside, the restaurant remained calm and peaceful inside. Even at full capacity, the volume stayed comfortable. The kitchen ran like an orchestra no yelling, no chaos, no stressed staff just teamwork and smiles. I wanted to take a moment to praise Huli Sue’s, their staff, and their phenomenal hostess. They handled what could have been an overwhelming night with grace and efficiency. They already had my business —but after that experience, I’ll make it a point to go even more often.“

“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.“

“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.“

“We were highly impressed with our first visit to Tall John’s! We had the Bravette Steak and Duck, both cooked to perfection! The cocktails were equally unique and tasty! Cool Vibes & yummy food! Oh, and we both have a gluten issue and were accommodated easily! We will be back ❤️“

“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’ve eaten here 2 times in the last 2 months. The food is delicious , the service has been excellent and the atmosphere is so nice . I’ve enjoyed eating on their patio . I know I’ll be returning .“

“We are from out of town and love to try the local favorites. The food was fresh and delicious. The restaurant was unique and the service was friendly.“

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

“It been a really good place to eat till today and it was still good but the order was not what i ask for the to do it was even printed on the ticket to put the chicken in one box and the tater tots in another box instead they put one order of chicken tendes in a brown paper bag on top of the tater tots and put the second order of chicken tendes in another brown paper bag on top of French fries so i was extremely disappointed with the service today and I had ate their a lot I let it slide this time“

“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.“

“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.“

“We had absolutely wonderful service & delicious cocktails during our visit in Asheville. Meticulously crafted cocktails by a very knowledgeable mixologist (can’t remember his name). We will definitely be back next time we’re in town.“

“Me and my wife are here at cornerstone restaurant today and the food was absolutely delicious again the spaghetti and the meatballs, the Snickers cheesecake and Claire our waitress. She was a diamond for sure. Great personality. Fast response brought our food out very quickly and everything was A+plus would like to give her a big shout out. Even if the food was bad ! We would come back because of her .“

“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“

“Some folks say this soda fountain is too expensive. Let me tell you a story. Growing up in New York City in the 1950's, I would go to the local soda fountain and buy a chocolate egg cream soda for 5 cents. (A chocolate egg cream soda is a New York City beverage). Today, I bought a chocolate egg cream soda and the price was $4.50!!!

The soda was just as I remembered it; and even at $4.50 the soda did not contain any eggs or any cream.

Overall, it was a nice trip down memory lane.“

“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.“

“I love this place!! best wings in town. always good daily specials and they happen to have great substitutions for vegetarians...you can sub tofu and tempeh for proteins. huge selection of drafts and beers, and even several delta-9 drinks. pool tables upstairs are free, along with darts. you can rent that upstairs space for private parties. off site catering is also available. And...plenty of parking!!! highly recommend!“

“Delicious food and great service!“

“As someone from Chicago, I don’t usually get excited about hot dogs. My friend insisted, “Josh, you have to try Farm Dogs,” and I’m so glad I listened.

I ordered the chili dog with mustard and onions on the potato bun, and it was incredible. The wasabi mustard is absolutely phenomenal and adds such a unique flavor without overpowering the dog. The potato bun is soft and delicious, and the hot dog itself has this satisfying snap when you bite into it that makes it feel truly artisanal.

The real standout, though, is Jade. She is incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what she does. You can tell she puts creativity and care into every hot dog she makes, and that passion comes through in the food. It’s rare to meet someone who clearly loves their craft as much as she does.

Farm Dogs completely changed my expectations of what a hot dog can be. I’ll definitely be back, and I’ll be bringing friends with me.“

“My friends and I ate here during our visit to Asheville in August 2024 and I can’t stop thinking about it. It was so good! I cannot wait to have another opportunity to go back“

“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.“

“We LOVE the one stop! The people, the place, the fans. Can’t wait to visit y’all again! 5 🌟“

“We love our outings to Creekside - Georgia loves the chicken and fries and I had buffalo wings this time which I really enjoyed. I usually get the salad with smoked chicken and its my all time favorite. The staff are great and the atmosphere is cozy. So if you are looking for a great place to eat, with a good atmosphere and great eats - Creekside is my favorite place in East Asheville.“

“We sat at the bar and the bartender Wes was top notch. Very personable, remembered our names when we came back in because we left a bag. Great experience and I highly recommend.“

“We went here after our trip through the Biltmore estate. We loved the pickles and fava toast appetizers! They really hit the spot. All of our meals were very good, fresh and delicious.
One of our favorite parts of the meal was our server, Chris. He was extremely professional, engaged and timed our meal perfectly. I so appreciate a high level of service and Chris delivered. He made our experience that much more enjoyable.“

“Five Points is on point! Bathrooms were nice and clean, staff was polite and attentive, & the food was really tasty, with generous portions! I highly recommend if you’re in the Montfort area of Asheville that you bring your appetite and enjoy a meal here. Will definitely be back for more! 🍽️ 😋“

“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!!! All the team are so well trained they made us feel like we are royalty. The food was very delicious amd beautifully executed! Every detail from the greeting until the end of the service was amazing and exceptional! I can't thank enough the entire staff who truly goes above and beyond to make guest feel so incredible!
Thank you!!!!!“

“Great place with a great welcoming staff.“

“Have been eating at j&s for years, drove over today from Rockford, Tenn not disappointed, wish would come to Knoxville“

“Joe was fantastic and so was the cider. Definitely will be back!“

“Had a great Turkey Pita and White Ale on the patio with friends. Excellent wooded vibes and great food selection!

I would recommend 1) Something to keep the tables from wobbling. 2) A menu with accurate pricing. My bill was different than the menu suggested.“

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

“Rye Knot is a great find, we come to Asheville often and always looking for something new. Someone recommended Rye Knot and it lived up to their recommendation. The service was awesome and the food was great. The Brussel sprouts and smoked meatloaf were will worth the visit. Can't wait to come back and try something else.“

“Go see Dave if you want an incredible meal and experience! We had the best dinner here and I couldn’t be more impressed.“

“Fantastic European style restaurant.

VERY sad the seasonal nettle soup is gone, that was to die for (PLEASE BRING THIS BACK!)

The salad croutons are fresh made and make the salad worth having every time.

The steak frites and chicken dishes were incredible. I don’t think I’ve ever had chicken that was as juicy and tender as it was here.

Prices are in line with a higher end restaurant and the service is fantastic.

Validated parking is a plus.“

“Good service and food 🥘 the scenery is great too“

“We were a party of 8...in the summer...around lunchtime...so it was crowded but we were seated quickly..had biscuits right away and our food came out quickly...portions were huge..(.I think the meatloaf slice was a pound of beef by itself.)..Staff were courteous and helpful with our wheelchair and walkers.food was reasonably priced... our only "negative" comment would be that some desserts ran out :( but everything else was great!“

“Great food. Locally sourced. Friendly, well-trained staff.“

“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 !“
