Stopped here for brunch on a Saturday. It's common to need a reservation here but they had availability on the heated covered patio so we accepted that. I would like to get back to eat inside to see the adorable old home the restaurant is set up in. My friend & I ordered brunch. Me house made cornbeef & hash that came with Rye toast & eggs (mine were poached) and my friend an omelet that came with potatoes & a biscuit. Both meals came out with In 15 minutes and our waiter was attentive. I was very pleased with the meal & would happily come back. read more

Thanks to a large table cancellation we were able to get dinner here. A place is cute with nice music and services exceptional. My husband did order his meal with low salt and unfortunately, after an hour of waiting for his meal, he was told accidentally salted his trout so we waited about an hour and 15 minutes. Then sadly, his green beans had salt all over them as well. Trout was delicious as was the Burrata salad and shrimp & grits. Everything was seasoned perfectly. The amuse bouche was a nice start to the meal as well. The server was kind and apologized, but he offered nothing else to recover. We would have given it five stars otherwise read more

One of the best brunch places I have ever dined at! From the starter salad to our individual dishes, everything was packed with flavor without being overwhelming. I have never had grits that were so creamy and my partner said this was one of the best chicken and waffles he's ever had. When looking over the menu and heading the daily specials, there are lots of vegetarian and gluten free options available so there is something for everyone. I can't wait to come back here and try their other dishes! read more

First time back since the renovations after Helene flooding and the space is absolutely beautiful - much better layout downstairs at hostess stand/bar area. Service was great and food (huevos racheros, fried oyster salad, kale salad) was excellent. the unpretentious mimosas remain a crowd fave! Kudos to staff and owners reconstructing this community gem, we look forward to many more visits. read more

Food and service was superb! If you're in need of a quality breakfast with good portion sizes, we recommend! The bacon tater tots were delicious and I was skeptical about $14 canned espresso but let me tell you I loved it. We were a litttle surprised at the total bill given this wasn't a gourmet kind of breakfast experience but hey, we were on vacation. read more

Had a lovely Saturday brunch here while visiting Asheville. Made a reservation online and was seated promptly when we arrived. Our waitress was Ellen and she was fantastic. Kept our coffee and ice tea glasses filled. She also was able to answer all of questions since it was our first time there. Now the important stuff...the food! We decided to try a bunch of their starters since they all sounded good! Biscuits and gravy- very good! Order this! Watermelon Gazpacho-Delicious, order this too! Great flavor! House made Tater Tots- yummy! Cinnamon Roll-they aren't kidding when they say it's huge! It was delicious as well just wish it was a little softer. Deviled Eggs-Also good but wish they had out more of the candied bacon on. It was such a small piece on each egg. Overall a great brunch! read more

We tried to come here a couple of times while town but it's long wait so finally made it to brunch on Sunday and it was about an hour wait. I suggest calling to put your name in advance. The chicken and waffles with biscuits and gravy was super delicious. The salads and deviled eggs we had were also tasty. Busy place with inside and outdoor tent and heated seating. Service was attentive and friendly. read more

It's been years since I visited the Corner Kitchen. So many people love it I thought I'd give it another go. I love the ambience of the place. Service was also top notch. But all of that doesn't mean much if the food isn't also great. Maybe if I was t a vegetarian, I'd like it more. There are plenty of options for carnivores, after all, but slim pickings for plant eaters I was there for lunch (or brunch, as they called it, even though it was after 1 pm) and the only sandwich that was Vegetarian was the portobello. The waiter told us about the dishes of the day, one if which was a eggs Benedict with salmon. I will eat salmon so I ordered that. The dish was acceptable. The potatoes on the side were good, the hollandaise sauce was good, but the salmon, which should have been the star of the show, was dry and without flavor. One more bright note was the white sangria. It was delicious. Overall, this visit reminded me why I don't visit them more often. read more

Eh a mixed bag. Maybe it was a bad night considering all the good reviews of this spot. In fairness we were a tough table with lots of dietary restriction among the group and a couple kids to boot. Service was friendly and accommodating but slow. They kept my water full but food was slow out of the kitchen. I suspect the kitchen was short staffed and the front of house was doing their best. My kids got progressively more bored with the wait but the staff put up with them well. The tomato pie app was a highlight as was the solid kids salad with chicken with an apple vinaigrette. But you don't go to a restaurant for the kids salad. They serve an interesting vegan gumbo full of regional veg. In general the menu has solid southern influenced offerings. My crab cake looked lovely but unfortunately fishy. I didn't think the orange wedges that were served along side particularly worked. My seafood boil was very disappointing. It had obviously been sitting under the heat lamp as the crab was dried out. So maybe I'll give it a try again sometime but it isn't somewhere I would make a destination. read more

Sitting on a corner in Historic Biltmore Village this restaurant is located in a cute little house that has been converted into a restaurant. It is set in the middle of lots of trees. The weather was so nice and we wished we had asked to sit outside. We sat in the room with a bar. It had big picture windows so it felt like the outside came inside. Nice ambiance. They fill up fast so reservations are recommended. Our server was Scott P. He was wonderful. Very friendly and knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I ordered the Bagel and "Lox" Sammie. The Pickled green tomatoes and the Lusty Monk-Caper Aioli sauce set this sammie in a league of it's own. The crispy thin fries with rosemary and Parmesan were so good you didn't need a dipping sauce. The homemade pickle was yummy. The hubby chose the Chef's Daily Lunch Special. I hope I get this right. It was Shakshuka, a West African dish. Two poached eggs in tomato sauce, herbs and spices served over their house stone ground grits with goat cheese as well as fried artichokes and locally grown cilantro. He gave it two thumbs up. We decided to share the homemade CK Ginger Ale. Excellent choice. The first sip is quite stout. You must like ginger in order to enjoy this drink because the ginger is very strong. We do and we really liked it. The hubby and I were celebrating our 41st wedding anniversary so we were given a complementary dessert. We chose the Dark Chocolate Mousse. It was served in a little jar. Each bite was different... either salted caramel coffee foam or chocolate crunchies. YUM! Our bill was $42.80 before tip and it was worth every penny! The hubby thought it was so good that he filled out the comment card at the end of our meal. This was our favorite find on this Asheville visit!! Everything we ate was delicious. I was ready to make reservations for the next day's breakfast after eating lunch. Sadly we already had plans. Next time I'm in Asheville...I'm heading here. read more

Disclaimer- we didn't eat here this review is solely based in the treatment received by the hostess. We are visiting from out of town Asheville and we googled this place and decided to give it a try based on its location. We arrived at 10 am and my sister in law went in first and asked for a table for 8. She was told by the rude hostess that she couldn't arrange a table that size. My sil came outside and told me to ask for a table for 4 for my family only because she felt the hostess didn't want to give her a table. I went in, noticed varios empty tables and asked her for a table for 4. She said that the next available was at 1:45! Remember this is at 10am. I said ok fine put my name in the list, she then tells me that the only table available at 1:45 is at the cold patio! While we were leaving I saw another family coming in, adking for a table and getting sat immediately. It was obvious that she didn't want to give us a table. We went to the first watch around the corner. I understand if a restaurant is busy but to be discriminated this way and to be treated with this demeanor is outrageous. read more

Traveling from NY read about this restaurant and so happy we stopped. The ambiance is warm and inviting as if you were in someone's home. The decor is simple but trendy. Noise level is moderate in this upper casual dining space. Tables are well spaced, and the environment is warm and relaxing. Our server Jerry was amazing. Great recommendations and was attentive and endearing. We loved the Bronzini special... prepared perfectly with roated tomatoes and sauteed swiss chard. Amazing. The trout with buer blanc sauce and fresh local stringbeans was smooth and delicate...AND the mashed sweet potatoes with ginger...amazing. Highly recommend the Corner Kitchen read more

Great menu with so many options to try next time. This time I had the Cool Grilled Chicken Salad. The chicken was seasoned spectacularly. Loved the combination of ingredients and the dressing. My daughter had the Kids Scrambler, and she was happy. Our server, Hannah, was delightful. Service was attentive and quick. We will be back the next time we visit. read more

We visited between Christmas and New Years knowing we would need a reservation, and may possibly still wait. There was a wait if you did not make a reservation, however, we were sat right way upstairs. Our server was Ally, very kind and gave great recommendations based on your food preferences and my dairy intolerance. Everyone receives an amuse bouche on the house. I had the vegan bolognese (so savory and flavorful forgot to take a pic) and he had the Ponzu Glazed Maitake Mushroom appetizer and clam chowder. It was our anniversary and they were very kind to also offer us a dessert on the house. I had the banana sorbet, not a fan of many sorbets. It was delectably smooth and tasted just like homemade banana ice cream. We throughly enjoyed our time there and were happy to be out a little over an hour to get back to our place. Very cozy atmosphere, never felt rushed the rooms break up noise from each party. We will absolutely be going back again! read more

Quick Summary This was a upscale casual version of their Chestnut restaurant. Food was fantastic and similar to Chestnut. Ambiance was definitely much more casual than Chestnut. Parking can similarly be difficult as it's street parking Food- 5 stars Corn and crab chowder- this was decent. It paled in comparison to the entrees Pecan crusted trout- this was very good. Excellent flavor throughout and very balanced. I couldn't stop eating it Pork chop- my friends couldn't stop raving about how good the pork chop it was. I assume they get the same supplier as Chestnut, and I thought their pork chop was phenomenal Drinks- 5 stars The Vanderbilt Martini was fantastic. I was a bit worried in the beginning when the servers were making the drinkers as well, but I was surprised and satisfied Service- 5 stars Servers and staff were friendly and attentative. They were also the bussers and the bartenders, which was pretty impressive Bottom Line Great meal at the Corner Kitchen. Highly recommend the Vanderbilt Martini with either the trout or pork chop read more

Amazing breakfast. Walked right in and sat at the bar. Greg was more than accommodating!

We absolutely LOVED corner kitchen. Corner kitchen is one of the few restaurants I've seen that lets you reserve their patio. We were traveling through Asheville with our dog and eight month old and were able to reserve patio seating. It's a very cute patio with a fountain. The service was impeccable. We mentioned to our server that we have a time crunch with our baby and food was out and ready within that time crunch. We started with the seared tuna which had a perfectly even delicious crust all the way around. We also got some fried green tomatoes with an excellent pimento cheese. For entrees we split the summer scallops and the shrimp and grits. The scallops were buttery deliciousness with no grit which I find is a rarity in restaurants these days, even though it shouldn't be. The accompanying risotto was made with corn and was just a beautiful accompaniment. The shrimp and grits were creamy and flavorful, and had real occasion flare to them. Our kiddo enjoyed a grilled cheese and green beans and she loved it! Drinks were also fantastic, I really recommend this place for dogs as well as kids with their separate kids menu, crayons, high chairs, and beautiful outdoor patio. Parking is not too difficult and located along the street next to corner kitchen read more

Just ok. Food was not great. Service was fine. Had to wait which is ok but several tables were empty. Could be due to help. Glad they are back and open but need to step up their game. read more

We got to visit some family during our stay in Asheville NC, the Corner Kitchen in Biltmore village has been highly recommended to us and it did not disappoint! The service was great and the brunch was great, I can tell they use high quality ingredients. Wifey had the Shrimp and grits that were very rich and a nice tangy light broth. The sausage and shrimp were delicious. I had the Homemade corn beef hash, the potatoes, sauce and corned beef were very savory and the rye bread was so good to soak everything up on the plate. Our server was great and very accommodating, even though we took a little longer than normal since we were catching up, we never once felt rushed! read more

This restaurant is listed in Asheville Magazine and I can tell you 99% of the restaurants listed there are top notch. Corner Kitchen is no exception. There was no option on Google to make a reservation, and when we walked up, it was a 45 minute wait. The hostess checked us in via Resy. One of the things you should do (for feedback) is to make it known in your Google page about page that you use Resy to book reservations. I went with two of my co-workers and they loved my pick. Excellent service, not just by our server, but by the entire staff. Kudos! CK is pet friendly and will bring out a bowl of water and snacks if available. Our table ordered the Soup of the Day, the Trout, Duck Salad, and Lox Salmon. Everyone loved their dishes. I can tell you if you're a duck connoisseur, it's a bit on the liver-tasting side. I had mine cooked medium and that was perfection. read more

We were so glad to go to Corner Kitchen for brunch/lunch today. We enjoy their sister restaurant Chestnut in downtown Asheville (see my review for Chestnut) so we were anxious to try CK. We were not disappointed. Wonderful location in Biltmore Village. The food at these two restaurants is always stellar. The chefs being fresh local ingredients to their menus always coming up with unique and delicious dishes. Today I had Boozy French Toast which was amazing (I ate every bit not something I often do) while my husband had the Eggs Benedict special which had pulled pork and cheddar cheese along with a peach hollandaise sauce. His side option was grits. I tried his dish as well and oh my it was scrumptious. The service was great from the hostess to our server. The restaurant is in an older home which adds to the ambiance. We sat upstairs next to a window so could enjoy the soft rainy day and watch the folks walking by. (Especially the fellow who wore a T-shirt which said "Irony...the opposite of wrinkly".) I highly recommend both Chestnut and Corner Kitchen. If you don't visit at least one of them on your next trip to Asheville you are missing an important part of the culinary scene in this special city. Bon Appetite. read more

Brunch was excellent. We had the red eye shrimp and grits and the Heuvos tostados. Both were SO good.

We stumbled across this restaurant while driving around Biltmore Village looking for a place to eat breakfast before our visit to the Biltmore Estate. Wow! Our food was excellent. I had the daily Egg's Benedict and it was the most flavorful and delicious one I have ever eaten. My husband commented that the cheddar grits were the best he had ever eaten. The service was excellent. We were seated immediately and the entire staff seemed to work with expert efficiency. There is a sign that shows the high water mark from the flood. The restaurant was lovely. read more

Visiting Asheville, we went to a church about a mile away from Corner Kitchen, we decided to try a Sunday Brunch here today. I looked on the website beforehand and saw how you supported local non profits and also believed in giving a living wage to your employees, having served & worked in the restaurant business , I was pleased to see this. I am someone who has all the empathy and compassion for those in the food service industry. In Charlotte, where we live, I feed and minister to our unhoused community, which began when a local business donated food to this labor of love. If you are ever in the Charlotte area, I recommend visiting Community Matters Cafe, where every visit supports those in recovery for addiction. Chef Chayil is a lesson in excellence. I strongly support the work done there. https://communitymatterscafe.com/ and was hoping to have a positive experience here. Unfortunately, that was not the case. My husband and I read the reviews and saw that it was recommended to make reservations, which we did. We entered the porch waiting area, and the first one to greet us was Marla dog and her nice humans. This touched our hearts as our beloved rescue dog recently crossed rainbow bridge. We went to Lake Lure to honor her memory at the rainbow bridge there. Marla dog could give lessons to your hostess on how to greet and treat guests. When we arrived, I was rudely and abruptly told by a young woman in glasses to wait outside when I inquired about our reservation. We did so. I watched as she rudely and abruptly interacted with and called other guests. The hostess is your first impression of an establishment, and unfortunately, this one did not leave us with a good impression. When we were called in, this young woman sat us at the bar area. I was not pleased with this either as we had went to the trouble of making a reservation and my husband has pain in his knees due to arthritis it hurt my heart to see him have difficulty in sitting in the high bar stools. It was very uncomfortable and painful for him. I would deduct more stars because of this, and only leave a one - or two star review, but my husband says because the food and the waitress were good to give you a three star review. The deduction is solely for the hostess in glasses and her lack of courtesy and care . As you can see from the pic, there were open tables that were available. Apparently, making a reservation does not guarantee you a table, even if there are available ones. Sitting at the bar in the high chairs caused increased pain and discomfort to my husband. We did not make reservations to be rudely seated at the bar. This is the worst expierence I've ever had with a hostess, and a quick look at your reviews, especially the negative ones reveals this is not the first time guests have been treated rudely by a hostess. Though I do hope it will be the last. All people should be welcomed and given a seat at the table, especially if reservations were made beforehand specifically for this. Being seated at the bar by the hostess caused increased pain , discomfort, and stress to my husband, and made it all a very unpleasant experience. Due to the discourteous hostess, who is a reflection and first impression of you and your establishment, I would not recommend going here if you are visiting the area. Be aware that even making a reservation, you may not be seated at a table. Also, if you are disabled the bathrooms are upstairs and do not appear to be accessible to those in wheelchairs neither is the entry wheelchair accessible if you or someone in your party is disabled this is something to be cognizant of. Of all the wonderful food places Asheville is fortunate to have, the experience here was the worst for us. I hope you will take this review constructively and use it to sharpen and improve the experience at the Corner Kitchen. I would not want anyone else to have to experience the rude mistreatment and physical pain and discomfort that we did. Sincerely , Pastor Michelle 866-987-7729 24/7 free prayer line. Update 9/15/24 From my husband: We dispute what you say. Furthermore, neither of us enjoys sitting at a bar. We would never choose to do so. read more

Five of us decided to have lunch at Corner Kitchen due to its proximity to another store my friend wanted to check out. Luckily that was the case as the table wait time was thirty minutes for a Monday afternoon. Totally could see why but next time I will make reservations! Corner Kitchen is located in a house converted into a restaurant. This creates an interesting atmosphere of smaller rooms that weren't necessarily designed for dining and steep staircases since it seems old houses loved steep staircases. When the room has every table occupied I found it challenging to hear the people at my table and they me. Once one of the tables vacated it became easier to manage. It wasn't necessarily because they were loud, but with low ceilings, hardwood floors, and thin sound dampening pads there's a lot of opportunity for noise amplification. Our waiter was professional and polite. He wasn't the most engaging of the servers I encountered on this trip and seemed a little distracted. But he was polite and efficient. The cocktails were great. I loved the gimlet. It was perfectly balanced, sweet and tart, and very smooth. I ordered the burger for lunch. I asked for white bread since the only bun they had was brioche which I can't eat. The burger was cooked perfect. The pickled tomato was a great and necessary addition because without it there was no balance to the burger's saltiness. It was a bit extreme. The French fries were overly salted for my preference. I couldn't eat them they were too salty but I had several friends who had no difficulty. It was a good experience. read more

We selected the Corner Kitchen for brunch after my daughter did a quick Yelp search. It has a higher end feel than we were looking for in (and bringing to) the restaurant however, after confirming we didn't have reservations, we were seated and had a very friendly waiter share the specials with us. IT WAS DELICIOUS! I had the huevos rancheros and Bloody Mary. Both were fabulous!! Shrimp & grits were very good my daughter says (and less salt in the sauce would have been better.) The special, Eggs Benedict with pork belly and Hollandaise sauce with a kick was also very good. No pics but a great choice for food and friendly staff despite our unshowered App Trail look! read more

Excellent brunch spot in Asheville. We were seated at the bar right away. The bartender/server was very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The bar seats were comfortable and had hooks to hang bags, as well as built in outlets with USB's. I had the corned beef hash; subbed the poached eggs for over medium and the rye toast for a biscuit. The order accidentally came out with poached eggs, the server noticed right away and within minutes I had my plate back with the right eggs. My bf had the eggs Benedict special which he devoured. He also had the mango Bellini. All, outstanding! Thankfully we nabbed a street parking spot not too far away and it was a weekday. I could see parking being an issue on a busy weekend. But all in all worthwhile. read more

Had a great birthday lunch here and it was so good. I would highly recommend making reservations and being ready to wait a little bit. It was well worth the wait for us as the food and service was top notch. Our server made some great recommendations and I had the Boston Way Burger and ordered to be pink throughout and it came out perfectly. This is what I love when I go to a restaurant is when you can explain exactly how you want it and comes out exactly how you envision it. I also got to try the chicken and waffles and a cheesecake dessert. They were also both great, although the Dulce de Leche Cheesecake had potato chips on top and definitely was not needed as the cheesecake was perfect without them. These chefs and bakers really know what they are doing from the meals, dessert, and cinnamon rolls they offer as I was able to watch them work their magic by the front door and they have a lot of dedication to their craft. Can't wait to come back and try some of the largest cinnamon rolls I have ever seen. They looked super good! read more
