    All white meat, fried chicken, with 3 sides (Saturday special!
    Jewel L.

    Love their fried chicken. I had it once my first time there, at the end of October. I spent two months in Greenville looking for good fried chicken and all I could say is the whistle stop Café in travelers rest was very good, and gray moon, and Greenville, but I like five points the best! Made to order so you have to wait about 20 minutes, but totally worth it. On Saturday you get three sides! Happy to be back in Asheville!

    Not surprised to learn upon arrival that this place was absolutely packed. But it's a diner and as such, it has a counter and in my good fortune, there was a space for me. A server with a big smile took my order and before you know it, I had coffee and orange juice. I ordered the eggs benedict and the home fries and crispy bacon. It was a perfect eggs, benedict with just the right amount of lemony Hollandaise sauce. My coffee never stopped below half full. I'm a big guy and there are two other big guys to my left and my right so I have to say it was a little bit tight. But I still had plenty of room to eat. Very fair pricing there. I will definitely be going back.

    Home cooked diner alert. 5 points has all the nostalgia of sitting at the local diner in your hometown. All the classics and then some. For lunch, several fried seafood options. This trip was breakfast, and it was perfect on a cold morning. Crab cake Benedict was on point. Hash and eggs , yummy!!

    If you're tired of waiting in line for breakfast behind throngs of out-of-towners elbowing their way into the sometimes overhyped "latest and greatest," check this place out. It doesn't get any more local, any more authentic than 5 Points, where they've been welcoming 828ers since 1972. Grab a window booth or enjoy the artistry of the chefs from a front-row seat at the bar. No molecular gastronomy here, no 24K gold dust sprinkles. Just hearty, unpretentious, reasonably-priced eats that'll fill your belly and put a smile on your face.

    Fish po boy! Delish!

    Service was excellent! Food was excellent. Would absolutely come back! Generous portion sizes.

    Great diner food. Service was not as prompt as we observed those around us order taken sooner at the bar as we were seated and waiting. they were busy but we did feel like we were forgotten as we had to let someone know we were ready to order. Besides that once order was placed food came out fast and was very good. Waffle 5/5 so buttery! Homefries looked so good I had to try them 4/5 well seasoned just wish they were a bit more well done. Pancakes 3.8/5 I prefer waffle over pancake. Be prepared to wait weekend mornings but the line seems to move quickly. Def recommend!

    5 Stars - A True Asheville Classic! If you're looking for that perfect local spot in Asheville with great food, fast service, and a welcoming vibe, look no further than Five Points Restaurant. I stopped in for Mother's Day brunch and was instantly impressed. The staff was super friendly and attentive without being overbearing. My wife ordered the five points classic breakfast plate--eggs, bacon, and French toast--and everything was cooked just right. You can tell this place takes pride in doing the basics really well. The atmosphere is old-school diner in the best way possible--laid-back, clean, and filled with locals who clearly know where to find a good meal. The prices are totally reasonable, especially for the portion sizes. Whether you're a local or just visiting Asheville, Five Points is one of those places you'll be glad you tried. I'll definitely be back.

    Food excellent breakfast fast efficient n friendly Waitress had personality It was packed but kitchen works quickly getting food out Full house Service food n atmosphere good

    Busy cooks, great counter experience!
    Ron R.

    Five Points offers a good old fashioned "diner" experience. Friendly and efficient servers. We were able to get in quickly on a very busy Friday for lunch. Timing is everything. The food was good and sitting at the counter was entertaining. The cooks were slamming and jamming. I had a chicken wrap with fries and my wife had an open face roast beef plate with apple sauce and green beans. The only downside for me personally is the place is pretty noisy. My recommendation is to go to Five Points and get there early!

    Chicken and waffles

    Solid old fashioned breakfast. Great service. Not many tables. They are packed. If there is a parking space, there is probably a table. We had coffee at our table quickly. I went for the two egg breakfast with bacon, grits, and biscuit. My son has chicken and waffles. Both were very good at a decent price.

    Eggs Benedict upgrade with corned beef hash!

    See all
