It is very nice and clean. They let us park our stroller at the front. Restrooms: They have two single use restrooms. One has a changing pad for babies. Both of their restrooms were very clean. Service: We were warmly welcomed and served from the minute we entered Veranda. All the staff was soooo friendly and passionate about what they do. I felt right at home! You can also tell this is a place where locals go because some of the staff knew guests by name. Food: The food was fantastic. I had their 'Hungarian Mushroom Soup' which was delicious! My husband had one of their sandwiches and loved it. We will definitely back if we return to Black Mountain!

Our server was quick and so was the time we got our food after ordering. The bread, cheese and vegetables were fresh and tasty. The grilled chicken in my sandwich was very chewy and tough. It did not have a lot of flavor to it. It was a bland, white piece of chicken with little to no seasoning. It appeared and tasted liked it were boiled chicken breasts.

It's basically some tables with no umbrellas or shade in the middle of the parking lot. We were sweltering. Probably why many people took theirs to go or huddled under the roofing. Next time I'd sit in the grass or random chairs out back. The ice cream itself was decent. Fresh and a nice variety of flavors. I was asking about flavors and they could not remember some so they finally let me try them. Weird. I ended up with turtle something and moose tracks. Pretty small for an ice cream place but a good size for a small. The dipped soft serve was massive. So much so that I had to ask for a cup because it was a mess. About the same price as you'd pay for the homemade unique stuff and they don't take the go local card. This place is nice and a good neighborhood spot but I'll opt for one of my local favs next time.

My husband enjoyed the roasted turkey with cornbread dressing. Again the portions were plentiful and the plating showed the kitchen's pride by making sure everything looked as good it tasted.

About anywhere I get takeout for 8 people, they mess something up. Not this place, always spot on and on top of their game. Makes for a great evening dinner when the family just wants to stay in.

Georgia also deserves a special shoutout for her kindness, for serving us sweet tea with a smile, and for keeping the space clean and welcoming.

Today I found myself near the one local store we hvae in Asheville, so I headed over there for a late lunch. For getting there at 2pm I was surprised the parking lot was so full - usually a good sign. There was a very short line, my wait to order was less than 3 minutes. the store was exceedingly clean and the staff was very friendly. I ordered a bacon deluxe, onion rings, and a caramel shake, then found a booth in a quiet corner. My lunch was delivered surprisingly quickly for having been cooked to order. My burger was great. The meat was tasty and well cooked, the bacon still had a bit of chew to it rather than being overly crisped, the tomato was good, the lettuce had some crunch. Best true fast food burger I've had in some time. A definite 5. The onion rings were good but not great. Crispy outside, but not much onion inside. The shake was very good, tasty, and about as thick as you can yet without needing a spoon. If it was closer to my house than a 30 minute drive I would be a regular customer. I'll certainly keep my eyes open for their restaurants in my travels. Wish I could give 4 1/2 stars, it was definitely better than a 4, but not quite a 5.

She was going to save the other potato for later in the night when she was hungry, 2am rolls around, the prowler has arisen and is looking for her potato in the fridge. The potato is uncut, looks like a regular potato. It. Was. Not. The one who hungers stares down at a orange inside, not yellow, ivory, or white. A second sweet potato, with her sour cream and all other condiments with disappointment. Then came the scream, i stand up out of the bed, it's already at the door, sweet potato in plate, anger, I look at what was once my girlfriend and see pure hatred, it was very very very bad timing for this to happen, 2am, hormones coursing through her body, tears, anger, bloodshed, the beast has awoken and cannot be stopped, she is still angry, I'm writing this review not as judgment, mistakes happen and I understand, I'm writing this to make sure that I myself am safe from the beasts awakening, and hopefully to save myself in the future and any other man who may experience this with a woman, thank you for your time.
