    a plate of food and a drink
    Bill B.

    Always a pleasant and lively atmosphere, the service staff is always welcoming. Yes the burgers and such are great but the English and Indian food is beyond delicious. Great selection of beers, ciders & fantastic food has me wishing I had more than one day off. I cannot recommend Riverside Bar enough. It's everything you can want in a local bar/restaurant and more.

    Cheese pizza.

    Typical greasy bar food, and was exactly what we were expecting. The only thing I would change is adding some sort of sauce to the cheese steak wrap because it was a little dry with the bread. Other than that, everything was good. Our waitress, who was also the bartender, was the sweetest! Probably the cleanest bar I have ever been in.

    Menu

    Update on 2-25-20 While this place is still pretty good, the menu has changed to a "British style" as they call it. They used to have cheap food but now it's on par price wise with most other middle of the road places in town. I didn't see anymore dollar beer specials like before. Beers are priced at $2.50 for bud, bud light, coors, etc. imports such as Modelo, Corona, etc were $3.00. Ciders and a few imports were $3.99. Drafts were all $4.00. No domestics on draft that I saw but lots of good local brews and a few other well know taps. They have a full liquor bar now. It's limited on brands and I'm unsure if of what training the bartenders have so time will tell on mixed drinks. The food was still good but not as good as the amount of money they ask for it. It's still a dive bar, which is my preferred type of bar and the only true dive bar in this town. The bartenders are very friendly and don't forget your name. The crowd is still a mix of locals and tourist with a heavy lean on local. I still love the place. I just don't care for the new menu. Knowing the employees and owners they will adjust based on demand.

    The Square Root is the kind of place you don't expect to find in a small mountain town like…read moreBrevard--in the best way possible. This is big-city dining right in the heart of Brevard. The menu is creative, thoughtful, and clearly driven by a chef who knows what they're doing. Every dish feels intentional, with bold flavors and elevated execution that go well beyond typical small-town expectations. What really stands out is how well it all comes together. It's not just creative for the sake of it--the food delivers. Great balance, great presentation, and dishes that actually live up to the vision. If you're looking for something a step above while in Brevard, this is the spot. It punches way above its weight.

    He Said: we had intended to get dinner at a nearby brewery, but a coverage charge for a band…read more(fair!) discouraged us from hanging out. I called over to the Square Root to check the kitchen timing (it was getting on 8) and all was well. We managed a seat at the bar and this was perfect for us. We chatted a bit with the servers, who were amazing. There is a ton enjoyment for the job and the space going on here. We also met some semi-locals who were awesome. Shout out to "Kendall-Jackson"! The menu is full of local ingredients and plenty of temptations. The specials were even more tempting and we grabbed oysters to kick it off. The pepper/spicy mignonette is so so good. It's just the right mix of classic and new. I didn't need the other sauce, especially with just 6 oysters. I eyed the yellowtail snapper (snapper, right? def not tuna) special, but opted for the Korean chicken sandwich. Quite good! I could have used a stronger flavor from the kimchi and, frankly, less of a mess, but the cook was just right, the flavor profiles were excellent, and the portion was plenty. A really good sandwich! I had the sweet potato chips as my side and I can see why they are popular. We kept the leftover sauces from the oysters just so I could dip my chips. Good call! She Said: I'd like to start by complimenting the fantastic staff. They've obviously been here a while, and they're enthusiastic about this place. He Said covered the oysters (yum!) and the mignonette (double yum!), so I'll focus on the mushroom tart that I got as my meal. The rough puff was really done well, and the mushroom and goat cheese combo was terrific. I thought they would be inside the pastry, but I adapted. The whole dish was terrific, and though I thought it was too salty for me, I also know that I'm sensitive to salt. All in all, we will definitely be back! Potty Points: no trip to the potty for me on this one!

    Excellent. I recommend the pork belly tacos (holy moley, the pickled watermelon rind), the lamb…read moregyro, and the mole roasted duck. The Chicken Tikka Masala taco is pretty nice, too. The deep fried chickpeas was something I never knew I needed. Nice location, good atmosphere, colorful chalkboard menu outdoor eating, nice staff. Beer, chips are good, queso dip, what more can you ask for? I think even an elaborate salsa bar would be gilding the lily, it's just that good.

    What a cute little hole in the wall for tacos in Hendersonville. It's pretty close to downtown, so…read morewe decided to check this place out. We came right as they were closing. They have picnic tables and seating outdoors which was nice, though might suggest bug spray because the mosquitos were loving my blood. They also had some indoor seating, but cooler summer night, we had to sit outdoors. The tacos were soooo good. My favorite was the pork belly that went surprisingly well with the watermelon rind relish. The shrimp taco was classically deliciously and the lamb gyro was also very tasty. It was so hard to choose which tacos to order because there seemed like so many good flavors and different combinations. I actually wanted to try them all but my stomach couldn't handle it. My friend also ordered the cheerwine slushee and another order the margarita slushee which were good.
