    This is the French Onion Soup. It was incredible and I can't wait to go back for more!
    D H.

    Food was very good. French Onion Soup was the best I've ever had. Ambience was incredible, wonderful day to eat on the back deck. Service was very good and very personable.

    La Paysanne crepe - delicious!
    Tim C.

    I came with my family and thankfully they had enough space to seat the 7 of us. The space is smaller, but they graciously combined tables together in the back room to accommodate our party. I ordered the La Paysanne crepe, which had eggs, Swiss cheese, turkey bacon, leeks, tomatoes, and cream. It was delicious! The crepe itself had a nice crispy exterior but was soft to the bite. The filling was very complementary, and I think all the ingredients went really well together. I was skeptical of the turkey bacon, but it was actually good. The size of the crepe was also very generous and I was very full afterwards. The dish came with a side salad which was a nice addition. Our service was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating, and the food came out in a fairly prompt fashion, given the size of our group. The space was small and quaint but clean. Overall, I enjoyed this place and would recommend trying their crepes. I can't speak for the tamales or empanadas, but the crepe I had was delicious!

    Incredible French soup

    Picked this quant place for the crepes. Incredible!! Quaint. The French onion soup is worth the stop alone. It's like being in a little French chalet bistro. They had heaters on the enclosed back porch room for us. We got toasty! It started snowing outside which made it even more romantic! The Nutella crepe at the end was perfect. They use traditional French whole grain batter -- I didn't know that was a thing! My chicken crepe could've used a little more flavor -- but I'm not a Parisienne expert. I will 100% return. I didn't like being told they were closed. We did feel rushed. They had JUST closed. But it had started to snow. I'll know if this is a problem when I return. (Note the hours -- they close early.) I also wish my bill was about $5 cheaper. But food really is pricey right now.

    Cutest little cafe in Black Mountain with a mix of French & Latin/Mex cuisine. Crepes of all types, savory & sweet. And at 3 types of mimosas at Sunday brunch. I had the eggplant tamale & mushroom empanada both vegan. The sauce that came with it was excellent. My Bellini was tasty. We were a party of 8 & had excellent service. We were out on their cute patio & a thunderstorm popped up & they accommodated us inside. The sausage lentil soup & French onion soup were delish & everyone enjoyed this place.

    What a perfect brunch!! Stopped in fo4 brunch with my college friends. It took us forever to order because everything sounded so delicious. We each ordered something different. Everything we ordered was so scrumptious. I had the beef stroganoff crepe...amazing! We also ordered dessert crepes which were also so yummy. The waitstaff was kind and very efficient. It was a fantastic meal. A block off the main streets of Black Mountain and set up in a little house. Do yourself a favor and stop by.

    Came across this restaurant when searching for unique dinner spots in the Asheville area. It's a very small house turned restaurant and serves crepes, empanadas and tamales. The staff was very sweet as only two ladies were serving people. We were the first ones in the restaurant but it picked up pretty quickly and could tell there were some regulars who came often as they knew the staff. We skipped appetizers and went straight to our entrees. I went with the La Normandie crepe which was filled with caramelized onions, leeks, brie, Swiss and cream. I also had one pork tamale because I can't resist a good tamale. It was delicious and plenty of a helping. My two friends had the empanadas and said they were nice and crispy. The meals were served with a dressed salad that had the best balsamic dressing! We couldn't leave a crepe restaurant without having a dessert crepe. We went with a nutella and seasonal fruit crepe. It was so sweet and the perfect way to end dinner. Overall it was a very cute restaurant with character and the food was satisfying. The dessert crepes were my favorite so even a good dessert stop along the way.

    Very very cute place! The food was so fresh and so tasty. This place has a great vibe and refreshing views of the black mountain. I will surely come back here again when I am in this area.

    If you are looking for tasty crepes with a nice creme sauce stay away, this may be the new fashion of crepes but they were, frankly, awful

We were out in Asheville, randomly started craving Mexican food, and decided to give La Rumba a try. I'm SO glad we did because everything was genuinely incredible. The food was absolutely sensational. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor, fresh, and just ridiculously good. We kept trying each other's food and basically saying "oh my god" after every bite. Even the chips, salsa, queso, and guac had us hooked before our actual food came out. And the drinks!!! SO good. Dangerous in the best possible way. What really took the experience over the top though, was the service. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming, and you could tell they cared that we were having a great experience. Great food is one thing, but when the service matches it, that's what makes a restaurant memorable. We went in on a whim with zero expectations and left talking about how we HAVE to come back the next time we're in Asheville. Honestly, La Rumba may have ruined our ability to casually pick another Mexican restaurant now 10/10. No notes. Go hungry. Order everything.

I had the Puffy Wrap with chicken and the wife had the Mushroom Crema. Everything was excellent. The sauces were exceptional. Portions were generous such that we took leftovers. But left a little space to split a Flan. Firm but delicious. Would certainly recommend!

The outdoor seating was really nice on a comfortable summer day. In terms of the food, I was thrilled to find that they had a vegetarian platter that I could order off the brunch menu, so I went with it. It was reasonably good, but not exceptional. It was made up of a number of component parts that didn't always fit together. The cheese arepa was great. The fried egg was as expected. The mixed veggies underneath had the wrong tone for the dish. The shiitake mushrooms did add umami, but that was the wrong flavor profile. Not bad. They just didn't fit the rest of the dish. The fruit also seemed out of place. The house made chorizo was clearly a seitan product, and it was good. It was just a lot of seitan, and that's a product I try to avoid. In terms of the service, everything was exceptional. Our server was very nice and demonstrated exceptional situational awareness. She was present as much as needed, but no more. She was also fast, despite waiting on half the restaurant. I was able to get in and out quickly to get back to my day. All told, a completely reasonable destination. I suspect their meat based dishes might fit together a little better, but the vegetarian options could be improved.
