    Cody was our outstanding server for lunch today. Very friendly and polite and professional!!! Excellent food!! This is our go-to restaurant in Brevard. Highly recommend this establishment!!!

    Veggie Burger and fried
    Emily C.

    This is a must-visit in Brevard. We got the Brussel sprout appetizer at the recommendation of our server (who was excellent) and it was delicious! I got the veggie burger and fries for my entree. It was delicious and very filling--I took half of it to go! You can tell all the ingredients are fresh and that everything is made there. The restaurant itself is cute and trendy!

    Wild Mushroom tart

    The mushroom tart was delicious, and the K-pop chicken Sammy was yummy , 3 napkin , the hot spicy Sause was a little much .

    $18 club sandwich. Not as large as described but tasted good
    Steve R.

    The food is always good and the service has always been good as well as for the ambience. It is a nice restaurant, but I would say most of the ambience has to do with the floor more than anything. I will admit that every time we return and stop in for a bite the prices have increased significantly not sure if that's because of labor food cost or who knows what but many good restaurants to end up going under because they price themselves out of the market, hopefully that won't happen here. An $18 club sandwich is getting up there as I heard another customer talking about their prices

    If you're anywhere near Brevard, North Carolina and haven't eaten at The Square Root, you're seriously missing out--especially if you're a burger lover like me. I stumbled across this spot tucked away in a charming alley in downtown Brevard, and let me tell you... hands down, the best burger I've had in the entire area. I ordered their signature burger with pimento cheese, and from the first bite, I was hooked. Juicy, perfectly seasoned, and the house-made pimento cheese added this creamy, tangy richness that put it over the top. It was everything a great burger should be--bold, messy, and unforgettable.

    Stopped here for an impromptu lunch on a weekday. We were seated right away on the patio because it was a beautiful day. (Both the indoor and outdoor seating are quaint with character). We decided to share a couple of appetizers instead of ordering full entrees or sandwiches. The ahi tuna nachos were delicious, the pork dumplings were very tasty, and teh fried green tomatoes were flavorful (though the breading is quite thick vs. some other place we've had them). Our server was very nice and responsive, also proactively bringing out drink refills for us. Definitely recommend this place.

    This restaurant is down a very narrow alley, and parking is not allowed at the nearby door spots. You have to either find a spot in the street or at the end of the alley is a paid parking 24 hours a day lot. The restaurant is small and cozy, hostess and server both very good. Noise and lighting were perfect. Ordered a streak and Trout, one drink. Bill came to $130.00. No issues with anything.

    Cranberry margarita
    Miriam C.

    This is by far the best restaurant I have been to in years. When we walked in, we were treated like family. I can't recall any business I've ever visited, that truly goes out of their way to make customers feel valued before they even sit down. We decided to sit at the bar and it was a fantastic experience. I had a cranberry margarita to start with and it was amazing. We started with a burrata appetizer with bread, grilled peaches, and a balsamic glaze. It was phenomenal!! Our bartender brought out a sample of the rabbit gumbo and we loved it. We shared the NC trout with pimento cheese grits and I was licking the plate by the end. I can't begin to describe how good everything was. We ended the meal with a beer that tasted like apple pie. Do yourself a favor and come here!

    We went to celebrate a friends birthday. Very busy and crowded. Especially as it was sound 5;30. I did'nt expect it to be full that early. Drinks and food were great. Expensive to the size of the portions.

    Such a cute place with some local history. We enjoyed dinner tonight and dessert. The drinks were amazing! Brenton was our server and was very attentive and knowledgeable. Ask for him when you come in but I heard the other servers and they were very hospitable too! We tried the fall seasoned beets for appetizer and dessert was the peanut butter pie. Their decorator made the pretty flowers! They made our night perfect under the sting lights at the patio! Bravo!

    My cousin visiting in town with his wife.  They loved it  too!

Overall a fantastic experience, highly recommended

Two years in a row, I have been stuffed after eating one of their dishes. For being amazing, they have earned the coveted five star rating from me. Their General Tso's Chicken is sweet, but not too sweet...with just the right amount of kick for my weak self. It just works for me, to be honest. It is served with huge chunks of cooked green pepper, and that was good! Mmm! Gotta have your veggies with your fried meat concoctions! That's what I had last year. This year I went basic and went with hibachi chicken, and boy did that hit the spot! Brown rice is the norm down here, if you don't know. And that worked well with the hibachi chicken. The broccoli was crisp and tasty and went well with the flavor of the sauce and chicken. If you want some chinese takeout and you're in Pigeon Forge, this is a good bet!

    This is a true hidden gem in Asheville! This restaurant changed hands about a year ago now, and…read morethough I had not tried it prior to the new owners, I can't imagine it getting any better! I love Thai food, and will honestly take any chance I can to have some, but this place is something special! The restaurant is pretty simple, it is in the corner slot on a strip mall, but the inside is very clean and peaceful, it also has an outdoor covered patio that overlooks a beautiful pond which makes for a wonderfully relaxing environment for a quiet meal. Thai chili is a small family owned restaurant, like all the best spots are, the servers are some of the nicest people I've met in a long time, and the quality of the food is unmatched in Asheville! The red curry has a wonderful thick sauce and perfect flavor, ingredients are always fresh, and I highly recommend the spring rolls, ginger stir-fry, and the pad-kee-mao. If you like spicy food, make sure to ask for the fried chili oil, they make it fresh in house and it is far better than I have had anywhere else. They also have fresh Thai birds-eye chilis which make for a wonderful side or topping to any meal. All in all, if you're in the area, make a stop here. It is well worth going a bit out of the way if you're in the mood for Thai food. The prices are good, the people and atmosphere are wonderful, and the food can't be matched! I can't say enough good things about this place!
