A friend has brought me here a couple times - once to dine in on the patio with her dog, and once for takeout - and it's been just delightful both times. The dining in experience was a Monday lunch and very quiet while the takeout was a Sunday evening and much busier. Despite the takeout situation, I opted for southern fried chicken most recently and was really delighted with the meal. The collards were well seasoned, the cornbread was huge, the slaw was slaw (though nothing to write home about, it's hard to make slaw that's worth writing about), and the chicken was well breaded, not overcooked, and still kinda crunchy despite its steam bath. I might have had the southern fried chicken plate the first time too, come to think of it... it's just impossible to find well done Southern food in the west, so I can't pass it up! The patio has nice seating options including a couple coveted tables in the shade. They are all pretty huge picnic tables so you may end up sharing if it's busy, but that's kinda the vibe here. There are dog water bowls and ice water for the pups in the summertime. Regarding vibes, it's right up my alley with servers rocking hairy armpits and tattoos all over the place. If you're a little more physically conservative you may be a bit put off, but I'd encourage you to try it out anyway.

We arrived around 8;30 or so on a Saturday morning and found a booth right away. Within minutes our…read moreserver arrived and took our drink order. Coffee and water was brought quickly and our order was taken. I ordered pancakes, sausage, hash browns, and a biscuit. My wife ordered a kitchen sink type omelette minus the mushrooms. Service was fast and spot on with our order. The pancakes were hot and fluffy. Matter of fact, everything was hot and fresh and arrived in less than 7 minutes. Okay, so, this is not a knock or me saying the food wasn't good. It was average. To me, everything was pretty bland. First bite of hash browns I took, I tasted butter but by the end, just greasy. Again, that isn't a knock. I love breakfast diners like this for that reason. But, there really was very little flavor in any of my food. Pancakes were fluffy but nothing outstanding. Biscuit was good but again, nothing special. Sausage had the most flavor of anything I ate. My wife loved her omelette and commented on how packed it was with the ingredients. The service was very good and overall I enjoyed the food. Would I go back if I was going through Asheville again? Probably not. It was fine but nothing more than that.

Another Yelp find, we decided to check out for breakfast....What we did not realize until we…read morearrived is that it's a small restaurant inside of a time share leasing office (?) There was only 1 other table seated when we arrived, but decided to give it a try. The staff told us we could sit anywhere, we did, they came to get drink orders, and came back shortly after with our drinks and ready to take our food order.....but they had not yet given us menus. The waiter brough us menus, which were about half the size of what we saw online, and when asked he said they were "revamping" their menu, so this is all they could offer now... I ended up ordering the "southern hospitality" breakfast biscuit with a side of home fries. After placing our orders the waiter left without saying anything, and we never saw him again (???). Eventually, after a bit of a wait, someone else came out from the kitchen with our food, but he wasn't sure who had what. I will say the southern hospitality was piled high and a very large for the price, but it was a bit too large and messy with the pimento cheese to try and eat with my hands, unfortunately it's served in a piece of wax paper in plastic basket...trying to cut your food in basket full of holes, just means the wax paper tears. In the end it was good, a great price, but a much bigger mess than it needed to be. They staff needs to work on communication/people skills, and serve the food on a plates.....baskets are fine for finger foods, like fries, but not in a nicer place where you may need to use utensils.

I was planning to order the sopes because I loved that at a neighborhood restaurant we had in Manhattan years ago. I asked the barkeep who was our server which he would recommend the huaraches. He immediately said the huaraches with the carne asada. It was the best carne asada and the best huaraches that I have ever had. The carne asada had a stunning and evolving flavor. It was complex and elegant in perfect harmony without any part being too loud. What I liked is that every bite there was a first flavor mid and then a finishing. Truly delicious and unique. I absolutely love when the team can advise on the menu or items to try which this barkeep did in spades. They had an anejo on the menu that I had never heard of. He brought it out during the meal as a quick search the maker said it should be able to breathe and swirl and left out for a bit to truly enjoy it. I was able to do so and had a wonderful transition of notes the longer it sat out and I sipped on it. Enjoyed watching how the whole team at the restaurant worked. You could really see the care and effort the team put into the restaurant. Spouse enjoyed their enchiladas. Potato side was alright. Spouse ordered, I'm a little neutral to it because of the peppers (bell not spicy). The frijoles refritos are not to be missed. Lovely flavor and was a great palate cleanser for me whilst drinking the anejo. Guacamole is stellar as to be expected in a place like this. Perfect balance of chunky piece of avocado, onion and tomato in it. Spouse is not a fan of plantains so sadly I could not get him to try the platanos maduros. Fun flavor profile with the sweetness of the plantains. This is a not to miss spot now in the Asheville restaurant scene for me. (We had a reservation for 7:30pm but got into town sooner than anticipated. So we popped in early and were able to be seated at a cocktail table for dinner.)

Went solo during AVL Sounds Fest weekend (early August), and right at the 4:30pm open. They seated me at the bar - which I had requested - but at the one seat right next to the bussing bin. When I left an hour or so later, I was still the only person at the bar. It's a big bar. Never a great start when an establishment treats a solo diner like ... crap. Onward to the food. I ordered a spicy margarita, tuna tostada and guacamole. The guacamole itself was absolutely delicious. Nice chunks of tomato and nicely spiced. The chips however were mediocre. I asked if they were made in house, and was told yes. But it's a little hard to believe. They tasted like out of the bag options, or a slight step above. Tuna tostada was up next, and I was very disappointed. Given the upscale nature and pricing of the restaurant I was expecting deliciousness. What I received was quite stringy tuna, not very tasty and hard to eat. Again, the chip (tostada in this case), almost tasted stale. I would not recommend this dish. Maybe I've been spoiled by Contramar in CDMX, Oxomoco in Brooklyn and Ensenada in Miami / Brooklyn ... but really it was just disappointing. The spicy marg was tasty, and service was "fine." But given I was maybe one of 20 diners in the restaurant in total, I just would have expected more.
