    Fried chicken plate with mushroom gravy & sautéed sesame kale
    Hap C.

    You order at the counter, then find an open table, so it's not white table cloths dining, but they aren't trying to be. The food is honest and affordable. Both my wife and I ordered the fried chicken plate with mushroom gravy; she got cheesy grits and I got the sesame kale (packed a ton of flavor for a kale dish). The fried chicken has a great breading that keeps it light while giving you all of that crunchiness you hope for in good fried chicken. The dining space is like a casual diner/coffee shop, cozy, comfy & clean.

    Tempeh Patty Melt
    John B.

    Like many places, this restaurant's operations were limited when I stopped in, due to hurricane-related infrastructure damage. They were offering only takeout, though an outdoor patio on site seemed available. The menu was quite limited, but I was tempted by a tempeh melt. The leading tempeh company in the region was unmistakeable, and the sandwich was hard as I had hoped. A salad was less impressive, with the apples seemingly having been out too long despite the fact that I was there early in the day, and the cheese the menu promised being absent. Realistically, not a four-star experience under normal conditions, but given that everyone is picking themselves up at this point, I assume they have more to offer and I'm glad they're open at all.

    Delicious, fresh, flavorful food, with a friendly staff and lovely homey atmosphere. The perfect place to go after a long day on the slopes or in the water

    Menu with plenty of vegan options

    Yes, yes a thousand times yes! This is one of those meals that I will be dreaming about for years. I stopped here on vacation. It's a fairly small place with indoor and outdoor seating. It has a very casual vibe. You order at the counter, they give you a number and they either bring it to your table or hand it off for takeout. Please note they didn't have A/C going on the 88 degree day I visited and that's only reason I ordered takeout. Service was great from the counter staff to the server to the kitchen who made my food super fast! I was really curious about the blackened okra since most places cover the flavor with fried batter. They were absolutely delectable and I could have eaten a double order. The buttermilk fried chicken breast was cooked to perfection and seasoned well. While it does come with mushroom gravy, it didn't need it. I wish I had a slice of bread to mop up all the gravy. I also had the cheesy grits. They were better than average but I rarely eat grits. I finished it off with an iced tea and the whole meal was under $20. Highly recommended!

    The food was amazing and sitting on the patio with a Mountain View was a nice way to start spring. I really recommend the fried fish. The service left a little more to be wanted, but nothing terrible. I would go back again. Quick, good eats.

    Buttermilk Chicken
    Haley B.

    Came here during my trip to Asheville and I was not disappointed! I ordered the buttermilk chicken sandwich, leaving out the sprouts and red onion and I swapped out the honey mustard for mayonnaise instead. It was incredible! I also love how the portion size is so big, I almost couldn't finish. I definitely recommend coming here.

    This restaurant is like visiting Grandma's house, with the creaking floors and doors. Any bottle of wine is just $10 on Mondays. The catfish tacos are delicious. The tender fish has a spicy, crispy coating, and is dressed with pickled onions. The side of kale has an amazing liquor that's not overly salty. Their chopped pork bbq is tossed in a smoky sauce and served with creamy slaw and roasted sweet potatoes. The food they're plating isn't fancy, but it sure tastes like they use the best homegrown, local ingredients, just like your grandma (if she's a good cook)!

    Redneck Cuban
    Sabrina C.

    We tried coming here last year, but they were doing maintenance. It was a bit frustrating since we didn't see signs, nothing on their website, and nothing on Google stating they were closed. So we waited before they were supposed to open for 30 mins (since they open at 11 for breakfast), and then got turned away at 11:10 when someone came to the door after seeing us there for so long. We got there early because our AirBnb's check-out was at 10am and nothing was open until noon. So we just waited. But we were finally able to go in last week... it was ok. We again had to wait 30 mins since we got there too early (AirBnb check-out at 10am again). But it was ok, we just walked the street a bit to sight-see. Food (4/5): Redneck Cuban: Pretty good! Perfect amount of sauce. I just wish it came with a side... since just a sandwich doesn't cut it. Open Face Fried Chicken Biscuit with Roasted Herb Potatoes: The chicken & gravy on it was good. Lots of flavor. But the gravy was a little thin. The potatoes need something else... more seasoning... and a little more of them. Biscuit (3/5): The biscuit was ok... not much flavor and was a little dry making it have a not good denseness. Wait Time & Ambiance (3/5): Not considering the late time they open for breakfast (11am), the wait time in line was kinda long. We were close to the front but still had time to read the menu on the chalkboard/wall about 10 times. The inside wasn't what I was expecting. The building is strip-mall-like in the front, but inside it's old and has weird extensions in it. They need more seating since I felt like there were barely any inside. Service (5/5): Very friendly people. It's a fast causal place. You wait in line, order off a chalkboard/wall, get a table number, then find a table where they bring the food out to you. TLDR: Ok food. Nice people. Wish they were open earlier.

    Smoked pork with fries
    Stephanie K.

    We came in for a late lunch based on reviews. Ordering at the counter was quick and the employees were friendly. My husband I both had the smoked pork plate. He got his with fries and I had the cheesy grits. The grits were good but the fries were incredible. The portion size was plenty. My husband felt the pork was heavy on pepper but mine was great. Loved the flavor of the slaw. There are several little seating areas in addition to a small outdoor area. I would definitely come back.

    Are pets actually allowed inside?

    No they have an outside covered area for pets

    Do they do take out? Looking for picnic lunch

    They do! You can call ahead and skip the line. Their menu is online, but I don't think they list specials there. Great foog!

I love Spanish food and tapas. Curate delivers like no other place I have been. I love the open kitchen - it's awesome to see them prepare the delicious food! Ask for kitchen seating for an extra treat! One of the advantages of the smaller plates is they allow you to sample from a wide range of delights! We always get the boquerones - I love the way they prepare the fresh anchovies! We also had a cheese plate, with a selection of dry, ripe, and blue Spanish cheeses - all of which were excellent and presented with very complimentary sides - the pear and apricot compote with the blue cheese was a personal favorite! We also had the patatas bravas (fried potatoes), lamb skewers, oysters, grilled shrimp, and stuffed piquillo peppers. EVERYTHING was a delight. The wine list is also exceptional. I had a delicious albarino, and a txacolina rose that was outstanding. We finished with the Tarta de Queso - which was delicious. Tangy, and lightly sweet. A perfect end to a great meal! Not just one of my favorite restaurants in Asheville, but one of my favorites period. I love Curate!

For drinks - we got the sangria - which wasn't all that great. I paid a lot for ice. Next time - just get the wine. My husband also got a glass of vermouth - which he did like. For our meal - we got 1/2 order of the ham croquettes, 1/2 order of Chistorra & Chips José's Way, Gambas Al Ajillo, Patatas Bravas, and Pulpo a La Gallega. Our least fave was the gambas / shrimp. They were overcooked and had very little garlic. Dissapointed in the Chistorra b/c it was litearlly fried chorizo w/ maybe some chips in there? We enjoyed the potatoes and the ham croquettes. But sadly - nothing stood out to us that we "wanted" to go back.
