“Jalapeños!!! Voila! Choose your toppings burger: pepper Jack cheese, fresh jalapeños, pickled jalapenos AND jalapenos mustard with tonoatoes for coolness was fire.

“I still think about how good the wings are and I haven't been to Asheville in a while.“

“Holy moly. What a fantastic experience. I was traveling on business and I popped into this place for a late lunch/early dinner and a couple of cocktails. First of all, the service was amazing. I guess I came around shift change bc I had two amazing bartenders. Rachel was my first bartender and what a gem. Such a beautiful and bubbly spirit that makes you feel so special. She was super funny and ridiculously gorgeous. Next up was Tara. She was so attentive and made sure I was always good with my drinks and food. Not to mention she’s extremely easy on the eyes. Sheeeesh. Both ladies were so cool and efficient. You can tell these women have been bartending for years. All the regulars loved them so much.Second of all, the food was to die for!!! I got the Vault burger and I give it 5 stars.Lastly, the vibes are perfect. Atmosphere and music and people were all on point. Love this place!!!!“

“Excellent drink & food.. Duck wings excellent“

“The food is great and the staff are friendly! This was our first visit , but not our last! Hope to return for many more!“

“Everything we got was delicious. Wings, oysters on the half shell and lobster bisque w/ mini lobster grill cheese. Cool vibe atmosphere. Great service. It’s a hidden gem.“

“We chose the right option when we ordered at thunder burgerz. The staff was friendly and professional. The food came out quickly and tasted great. They give you huge chunks of bacon on the bacon cheese fries. The menu was pretty extensive so I can definitely eat here with the whole family because they have menu items that appeal to everyone. And get a fried cheesecake. We are going to try to order take out from here and see if it's just as good because the only thing disappointing is that this location is inside the mall food court.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian and gluten free optionsKid-friendliness: The kids menu has options besides just fries. They can have Mac n cheese, corn on the cob, broccoli with cheese, or sweet potato fries“

“You will LOVE all the products, they are the very best tasting!“

“Had the most wonderful sandwich! Yummy Mushroom Melt❤️“

“Ordered the chicken salad sandwich with pasta salad and a pickle and was absolutely blown away. This Jewel of a restaurant is putting out some of the best flavor combinations my family has discovered in a while. Completely blown away and impressed. Do not underestimate the creative minds of Romans deli chefs to take you away on a journey that your taste buds will eternally be grateful for! Cheers to the Romans team!Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs or ramps just a smooth roll in!“

“On July 6, 2023, my husband and I ate at The Madness on Merrimon Ave for the first time. I ordered sushi and he had a burger. We both had salads and spring rolls. The service and the food was excellent. Nothing to complain about. We look forward to visiting The Madness again.“

“We went to Baby Bull today while visiting Asheville. It was suggested to us by a local. This was by far the best burger we have ever had. The staff was super friendly and food was top notch. This will be a go to on future visits!“

“Burgers are delicious and fries are amazing. Can't wait to try some other items on the menu. Nice atmosphere great service.“

“Our new favorite place to get ready made meals. Recently took my kids (11&6) who are picky eaters and they loved the food. Great atmosphere and excellent service! I enjoyed talking to Andy and Jacob who are very personable and knowledgeable.“

“friendly bartender. nice suggestions on what else/where else we should try.“

“Granny's is our favorite "Best Kept Secret"!! Awesome cheeseburgers, hot dogs, chili, tater tots and old fashioned crinkle fries!! We always enjoy our food and our visit. Customer Service is tops! dine-in area is small, but they stay very busy with drive-through and carry-outs. Love it!!“

“Me and my husband wanted completely different things for dinner. I wanted sushi. He wanted a burger. I am so glad I found this place because we can have both in one place! My husband got a bento box and he loved the variety of things that were included. Although it was a miniature sized burger, it was still fulfilling. The sushi was delicious and the presentation was nice.“

“Small menu but wonderful selections. I got the street corn and really enjoyed it. I loved the the broccoli wings but I'm trying to decide if they loved me back because they are indeed very hot. But they were great. My wife got a burger on a gluten-free bun. (Unfortunately, that may not always be available. Hope that they make the choice permanent in the future.) I forgot what my somewhat picky son ordered but I saw he ate the whole thing. I did get a chance to steal some of his fries which were really good. Note that they offer 2 types of fries.We will definitely be going back even though they are on the other side of town.Staff was exceptional.Highly recommended.“

“Tried The New Pizza... Impressed.“

“I had the Falafel sandwich. Out of dozens upon dozens of food trucks and street food venders across several continents, this landed in my Top 3 ever. The combination of texture might be my no.1. Soft bun into the toasted side, into crunchy falafel, crisp pickled onions, the soft and smooth interior of the falafel, silky mayo, softer - secondary crunch of the greens…The flavour was simple, and in that was its genius.The falafel was wonderfully seasoned and the pickled onion cut through and lifted the heaviness of the falafel. The pepperiness of the greens complimented both while the mayo provided a lovely, chili infused, creaminess that helped with the cohesion of all the ingredients.Do yourself a favor and make sure to eat it while it’s still piping hot.9.8/10Will eat there every single time I get the chance.“

“I love Five Guys fries. Their burgers are good too. Surprisingly, their hot dogs are good too. They split them and grill both halves . Favorite toppings: BBQ sauce with grilled onions and mushrooms.Parking: Busy and small parking lot shared with other businesses in strip mall.Wheelchair accessibility: Doors are a bit heavy if traveling alone but I make it through with my power chair. Patrons frequently help.“

“I am only reviewing the Large Cajun Fries. I am simply not a fan of their burgers, especially with the steep prices. But the Cajun Fries are a standout at any price! Too greasy for many, but that just makes the seasoning cling in heavy amounts. Great flavor, good amount of heat and not too salty. And with the Large order I have more than enough for my craving, I can share if need be and still have a handful to cut up and make hashbrowns in the morning. YUMMO! Service and atmosphere were adequate with no issues. I understand why they don't get a thumbs up from everyone, but I sure do want their Cajun Fries to remain an option in the area. Thanks!“

“I started going for the food and was satisfied. Since I have been going I go back now because of the wonderful service. My favorite server is Patrick. He has always been professional, attentive, and perfect for the job. I love the look of the restaurant. It is so cool and fresh.“

“I had a chance to eat here twice today and was served both times by Cameron. It is far easier to find the incentive to write a bad review. But the effort required to get me the take. The time to write a good one is incredible, but I was convinced by the effort of this individual to serve me quickly. And more politely that i've been served in a long time. I highly recommend this location.“

“This is like the in and out of the East Coast. Ask for things cook out style. Burgers hotdogs with hush puppies "fried bread" but they are very tasty.Drive threw or walk up seating is limited but that's the style.Parking: This place gets busy make sure you have the spare time to wait in line it's worth it.“

“It was fine. Not sure about the crazy bad reviews, but the only bad thing about this place was the crazy homeless dude that tried to barge in while we were eating here. Food was good, ambiance was good, waiter was fine. Sadly they're understaffed, but it's alright. The guy was busting his butt to help us. He's the real hero in all of this. That and the 8 police cruisers that came over here to take care of the stray. Great police presence, great restaurant, crazy homeless people.“

“Wow idk how this place gets bad reviews! There are so many lazy nights I stop here for food, and every single time the employees are just so nice. I've never waited long, and my order has always been perfect. I hella appreciate these employees for feeding me dinner so many hungry nights, and for their friendliness after a crummy day. I've been to a lot of badly run fast food restaurants but this ain't it.“
