I ordered two different tacos so I could try a little of everything, plus the street corn, while my daughter went with the kids quesadilla and chips and queso.

I'd order it again without even looking at the menu! The whole place has a fun, laid-back vibe with seating in the front and back, plus outdoor seating out back. Good food, good prices, lots of choices, and definitely a place we'd stop at again when we're in Asheville!

The space is very nicely designed and laid out. Plenty of room in a cozy environment. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, on top of being very effective. I was extremely pleased to find that they even had a few different vegetarian proteins for their various dishes. In terms of the food, I went with a burrito bowl with vegan chorizo. The presentation was fantastic: my photo doesn't do it justice. It was also enormous. Much more food than I could finish, but also delicious. There were so many layers of flavors and textures that really came together in a cohesive dish. The best part is that they offer three different house made salsas, which really leveled up the dish and the experience. I would absolutely recommend checking this place out. The very hip, somewhat low key vibe was comfortable while also feeling high end well designed.

I leaned on Yelp recommendations to lead us to HomeGrown. And as usual, the Yelp reviews were spot on! This is a great little spot that easily accommodated our meat-eaters and plant-based eaters alike. Our group of 9 arrived for an early dinner. Thankfully it was pretty empty inside. The lady taking our order patiently answered all of our questions and accommodated everyone's dietary requests. Our food was delivered to us at the table. All of the food was fresh and delicious! Despite our large party, including one additional to-go order, our food was delivered quickly and correctly. Moral of the story....believe the Yelp reviews!

The space gets a little intimate when the line gets long because apparently everyone else will likely also have the brilliant idea to come here but, lucky for everyone, the wait moves quickly. The asada salad is easily one of the best I've had: bright, vibrant, fresh flavors with seriously good carne asada. And the portions are appropriately sized for the price, which feels almost rebellious in this economy. But the churros, the churros... they are dropped in the fryer right in front of you then served hot and coated with actual grated cinnamon and sugar. Actual cinnamon. Revolutionary concept! I will absolutely be eating here again. In fact, every time I pass through Asheville, Mamacita is now on the itinerary.

As a vegetarian, it was alarming to see a staff touch raw fish with their gloves and proceed to touch all the fresh vegetables without a glove change. After letting them know that this happened, the response was only a "oh sorry" and back to regular business. Not only is this unappealing for anyone to see, but an incredibly serious allergy risk that they do not care about and kept putting veggies on folks food. This is the best burrito spot in Asheville, and now, I don't know I can support or recommend them in all good conscientiousness.

Being that I was dining alone, I decided to sit at the bar. From a corner of the bar, I had a clear view of the small stage where the band was performing. It seems like so many restaurants, bars and pubs in Asheville have local music, and this place definitely did not disappoint. The food was great. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The eggs were perfectly poached, and the house-made buttermilk biscuit and cheddar stone-ground grits were delicious. The service was the only factor that kept me from giving a 5 star review. When I sat down at the bar, it took awhile for someone to greet me and take my order. After my order was taken, I waited a long time for the food. Overall, if you're looking for good food, a fun environment, and great live music, I would definitely suggest visiting Jack of the Wood in Asheville. Cheers

Mama Mac (BBQterie board)- Brisket was cooked perfectly, but did not have much flavor or seasoning. Pulled pork was my favorite of what we had- that was seasoned wonderfully and cooked perfect. The wings (dry rubbed and smoked) were yum. Collards were good. Baked beans were good but super sweet. Cole slaw was nothing special. Pickles were super sweet as well. The BBQ sauces were great we tried all 3. Our favorite was the cheerwine one. They were out of 2 appetizers and potato salad which was supposed to come with the barbequterie board, so they let us choose what to sub it with. We picked cowboy caviar which ended up being okay, not much flavor there. The salad in a jar was good, you dump it into a bowl yourself.

We actually picked this place at random when we went to a local pizza place down a dirt road that sold out by 6pm...gonna have to make sure we make it back there next time for sure. However, this place was a pleasant surprise. Menu is a bit intimidating, just pick some items and go and you'll be fine. It's one of those "order while standing up and then we'll bring your food out while you get your own drinks" type of places which I'm not a huge fan of. I got the Sunny Side burger...somehow or maybe I built one, can't remember. I remember being sad I forgot to get bacon especially after trying my girlfriend's bacon from her burger....GET THE BACON!!! IT'S NOT CRAPPY BACON BUT AMAZING!! They were able to accommodate her gluten allergy with a gluten-free bun but the fries could have cross-contamination as there is not a dedicated gluten-free fryer. She risked it anyways and for good reason (also she never got sick but your results and sensitivity may vary!), she wanted these jalapeño bacon cheese fries and wow were they good! They had picked onions on them which seemed odd but it worked...it worked really well. I couldn't stop eating her fries. As far as fries go...not everyone needs to order them. They give you way too many, not Five Guys too many, but way too many for an average eater with a big fat burger. Not one person in our group finished their burger and fries. If I was home I would have taken them home to my chickens and I don't think even they could finish them all in one sitting. The other thing I didn't like was how they do seating...I had to sit at the bar with my kids because all of the tables were taken up by 1 or 2 people when they could seat six. We saw several people come in after us and one person from their group would go claim a table while their group was in line ordering, preventing the people ordering ahead of them from finding a spot. Having a hostess seat people would make this place five stars.
