    I haven't found an enormous amount of Middle Eastern cuisine in Asheville, but this place brought…read morethe vibe. It's small and unassuming in a strip mall in West Asheville. My takeout was ready on time. While the falafel roll still might have been better fresh, I wanted something that I could plausibly eat several hours later on a mountain without a ton of restaurants nearby, and that choice worked out well. Many falafel rolls come with add-ons that I don't like, but the pickled turnip offering here was both flavorful and colorful. I also got their fries, drizzles with tahini and parsley, which is a good way to eat fries. A case of baked goods and a small market section of canned items were also available. There was certainly space to eat inside or out for someone without my travel schedule. It's also notable that in addition to the usual falafel, they offer ample vegan options as befits the Asheville community, including a house seitan and some other vegetable and fake meat options. I was happy with what I got, but the choice is always appreciated.

    While keeping in mind that this is an extremely informal and casual sort of restaurant with counter…read moreservice, I still have to say that the service is excellent. I have had falafel in various places all over the country and in Europe and this is in my top two! The Falafel is excellent, the portions are large and everything I have tried at Gypsy Queen has been delicious. I've brought several friends to the restaurant and they have all loved it. Gypsy Queen is one of my go-to places whenever I'm in Asheville. I live in Barnardsville and sometimes I go down there just to have some falafel. Try it for yourself!

    The Smokin' Onion was a great find in Asheville! It's hidden behind a second hand store. The…read morerestaurant is relatively small so avoid the lunch crowd. The Mexican-inspired fusion dishes were incredibly tasty, with generous portions that left us full and happy. The fried "chicken" burrito was so tasty and got a spicy punch topped with generous slices of avocado. The black beans were well season. The gyro was my favorite--it was packed with flavor and surprisingly satisfying. Ashville being Asheville offered draft beers even at a cafe!! :) I also appreciated that the entire restaurant is vegetarian, making it easy to order anything on the menu. Just keep in mind that it's a self-service setup, so you bus your own table and grab your own utensils and to-go boxes. You order at the counter and look a table to enjoy your meal. They also sell HUGE chocolate chip cookies but I was too full for dessert.

    Absolutely loved my visit! The staff was incredibly friendly, and with so many tempting options, it…read morewas honestly hard to decide. The pastries looked unreal, so fresh. I also loved that they carry cool locally made items. I went with the chicken biscuit with gravy and the French toast. The biscuit was square-shaped and generously sized, and it was delicious, though the gravy was not quite my thing. The French toast was a winner, not too sweet and topped with fresh fruit, which was a lovely touch. The latte deserves a special shoutout because it was fabulous. Service was relatively fast, and I also appreciated the large community table. It is perfect for chatting with friends or even striking up a conversation with strangers. Customers bus their own tables. The bathrooms were clean, and parking was easy. I am already planning my next visit to try more menu items, especially the chilaquiles. Highly recommend!

They always have some super fun stuff going on-festivals, great live music, karaoke, etc-along with pool tables and darts, and the bartenders are truly great at what they do! Jason in particular makes such a fresh and delish margaritas, & he's also just fun to sit and talk to! The FOOD too ya'll, omg their specials are always !!!!! You need to come check em out, great welcoming spot with awesome bartenders, great food, billiards, AND live entertainment? Those are hard to find, and they nail it!!​

No offense, but it's like Cheers- where the drinks are cold, the food amazing and the servers are the bomb! The staff remembers you & makes you feel like you're really in your hometown - whether you are from here or not! **Side note: I am NATIVE! Meghan made sure we had everything we ask for & needed. We watched her run all night! That kids Nikes were smoking! She also was knowledgeable about the cocktails and menu & her boss should be proud of her sales talent! The group started with 2, then 3- then 5 and our stragglers made it a table of 7. We noticed several other large tables in her section, but she handled things like a champ! Great food, service & laid back atmosphere!
