New American Restaurants in Asheville, NC

“We were greeted warmly at the door, and our server was extremely gracious and provided wine samples to help us choose the right bottle. The raw oysters were fresh and bright, the Big Bowl of Greens was a terrific salad to share. The NC Trout and Pork Schnitzel entrees were flawless. We shared a Black Forest Cake for dessert. In summary, it was a perfect dining experience.“

“We found this little gem by chance and were not disappointed. Great atmosphere, kid friendly (albeit its an adult place). We sat at a small corner table by the bar. We enjoyed some sharable plates, great wines, mocktails for the kids, excellent wines and my wife a great Vesper made by Luci (the bartender). But the cherry on top was the fact that she made a perfect Irish Coffee - a simple drink, but buttered by 99% of the bar tenders. We will be back.“

“Amazing dinning experience, attentive and friendly staff, highly recommended“

“Another outstanding culinary experience! Thank you for fitting us in yesterday on our way home from SAFF (Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair) we brought our dear friends who were celebrating their anniversary. We had some small plates then scallops, burgers, and schnitzel. Just fabulous. Thank you for a perfect end to a wonderful day spent with great friends. Happy to share such a dining gem.“

“They exceeded my expectations! Held my daughters college graduation celebration dinner party of 20. Their meats were done to perfection. The staff were gracious we were all completely satisfied! I highly recommend.“

“Fantastic food, ambiance, and service…“

“After a lot of reviews, we walked over from The Grove Park and sat at the bar. Spoke with the staff at length and had a fun time on a rather slow night in the winter season, but everything about our dinner was amazing. This little spot is extremely cool, in a very fun location and staffed by some awesome folks. It is very, very rare I try to go to the same place in a city more than once, but we ended up doing dinner and brunch while in town. Dinner - The house made focaccia was delicious, and I ended up getting an elk osso bucco that was really, really savory and good. Had leftovers for lunch the next day. As good as it was, I am more saddened by the fact that my partner got a smoked bolognese, which was one of the best I've ever had, if not the best. Absolutely stellar dish. Brunch - Breakfast sandwiches for both of us and some potatoes. Super solid/delicious and really, really good coffee. A stellar example of the amazing food scene in Asheville.“

“Went back to The Admiral last night and had to review after going for over 12 yrs. Phenomenal food and ambiance. Huge salad followed by perfect piece of salmon and multiple small plates that completed every taste point. The Admiral has always been a favorite and current crew as great as ever“

“Every meal was exciting and a delectable adventure! We were in great hands with the chef. I want this restaurant in Los Angeles - please!“

“My boss took us out for a nice office dinner one night during the Southern Conference Basketball Tournament. It was very nice, but super expensive (not that I had to pay) and took forever. We were there over three hours. I guess if that's the mood you're in for, it's a good place, but another guy and I had a lot of work left to do for the day. My meal was good, the cabbage and citrus beet salad much better than the fish, though! I had never had cabbage cooked like that or beets and whipped feta either, but it was tasty!“

“We were recommended to eat here by a friend and we absolutely loved it. We had our 11 month old son with us and they accommodated us by all means. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town. The brisket Mac & cheese was delicious!“

“Excellent experience. Delicious food. Ambience was excellent!“

“We dined on the outside patio because we had our dog with us. Menu was 100% GF but you wouldn't know it - because everything was so delicious. There was also a doggie dining menu for our pup to join us for dinner w/ some rules. 1) no dogs on your lap. 2) No feeding your dog from the table. The service was amazing. The food was delicious. The wine pairings were perfection. It was a little loud outside but to be expected and was worth it to be able to bring our pup.“

“Excellent and professional service, starting from check in to complete table service. They all kindly acknowledged my wife's birthday. However, the price of the meal was expensive, and the portions of the selected items were small. The overall quality of the meal was very good, but quanity of prepared items did not match the price. I guess this is because we were dining at the Biltmore. You are paying for the experience.“

“My wife and I met here for a going away party for a friend. The place is large with indoor and outdoor seating with a mini-golf course behind it. Good variety of selection on beer types and about 12-15 of them.The breakfast sandwich was a home run... like completely surprised us both for a brewpub... we were there during brunch, so she was able to get brunch and me lunch (think brunch ends at 3:30 Saturdays/Sundays). She had the breakfast sandwich, which was a monster and was a very good value. The sandwich was satisfying and so flavorful, especially with whatever sauce that was. The home fries were ordered extra crispy, and they came out perfectly crispy and not burnt or greasey.I am a sucker for shrimp and grits, so I usually get it if I see it on a menu. The shrimp were cleaned first off so they did that right and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. The sausage was still juicy and flavorful. The grits were cooked well but honestly, it didn't taste much of cheddar and noticed barely any jalapeno. The sauce was supposed to be garlicky cajun cream sauce. I got the garlic and cream but no cajun spice, and overall it needed some salt and pepper because of that lack of heat.Overall it was a great brunch spot with a tasty large breakfast sandwich and crispy home fries; but mediocre shrimp and grits. Beer selection is good.8.5/10“

“We had mixed feelings about Avenue M. The hot cheesy artichoke dip was one of the best things we've ever eaten and worth a trip no matter what else. I would definitely go back for that. I had the smash burger and my husband had chicken wings (we had some difficulty finding something enticing on the very small menu); they were good and acceptable but that's about it. The ambience is one of those (now outdated) industrial style restaurants which I find cold and noisy when crowded. Service was very attentive.“

“Love this place. Stopped years ago when I passed through the area. It's a must for breakfast!!“

“Best fried chicken in town!“

“Great staff, and friendly people! Would define recommend!“

“AMAZING!! Best steak and lobster Deviled eggs, onion soup, tartare sooo good!! Our waitress was awesome and on top of things. Will be back.“

“Food was delicious! Service was fantastic!!! Highly recommend!“

“Rachel was AMAZING. My family was visiting the area from the Midwest. When I say I miss that coffe... I miss it. We had a great time. The staff was super helpful, kind and informative. We also had a baby and a person on a walker. Everything was super accessible. The Biscuits Re dangerous just so you know. You will want more. Will for sure visit next time I'm in town.“

“My daughter and I stopped in Mt pleasant location today for the first time ! It was yummy ! Can’t wait to go back ! The pork belly was off the chain !“

“Excellent drink & food.. Duck wings excellent“

“Amazing food… love the service❣️“

“Nice space to come hang out and eat tasty food. My only feedback is the brussels could’ve been more crispy, but our entrees were great. My partner said it was the best blackened chicken sandwich she’s had. We enjoyed the warmer lighting and music! We just moved to the area, this is somewhere we’ll return to for sure!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free buns“

“Yummy meal and great service“

“Exceptional staff to go along with all the other amenities.“

“Stumble here for great late night food. Philly cheesesteak and grilled cheese were life saving inclusions to our evening. Fries were better than expected, alcohol selection was perfect. Lots of events but you're not surrounded by music or stand-up comedy if you don't want to be. If you are a lost soul in the heart of Asheville in the dead of night this is your lighthouse.“

“The burgers and our service were amazing“

“Best fried chicken in town!“

“We had a full morning of sightseeing and needed a bite to tied us over until our dinner reservations that night. We chose to have a light snack in the Library Lounge. My Honey and I split an order of Lobster Roll and Short Rib Sliders. There were two of each and light enough to not ruin our appetite for dinner. They have live entertainment here every night. Our first night they had someone playing the piano, the afternoon we stopped in for a snack they had a young man on acoustic guitar. Both were very talented and enthusiastic. The views of the surrounding mountains were amazing and the food was very Delicious. Our server was very friendly, helpful on our selections and provided impeccable service. We enjoyed our experience in the Library Lounge very much. The atmosphere was very comfortable and delightful.“

“Classic bar with some good pub food. The hamburger is really good, as well as the Reuben, and the chicken tenders. The appetizer sampler for $18 was underwhelming.They have pool tables, darts a patio area in the front and back. Also a couple tvs playing sports. Lots of regulars and great people frequent this bar, def check it out!Parking: They have maybe 30 spots available, right next to the entrance.“

“Twisted Laurel was a perfect fit for our day trip to Asheville. The food was delicious. The service is fantastic. Thanks, Josh!“

“We had Sunday brunch at the bistro. Beautiful restaurant and superb service. Brunch is a price fixed meal, which includes appetizer, entrée, dessert. Both appetizers were excellent, including deviled eggs and salad. Both of us had shrimp and grits, which was good but much too salty. Would not order again. Dessert consisted of three Tiny mini desserts, which were pretty good. Overall, we enjoyed the brunch and will certainly go back.“

“My wife and I were celebrating our 25th Wedding anniversary and from the moment we entered the restaurant we were treated as special guests. From the hostess to our server and all the support personal the attention to our needs couldn't have been better. The food was amazing. We planned this trip to Asheville and this particular restaurant for some time. We had heard from friends that it was an exceptional place for the kind of celebration we were going to have. I can't express strongly enough how delightfully delicious every course of the dinner was. And the bread was out of this world delicious. All in all I highly recommend The Red Stag. We will be returning nest year to celebrate our 26th Anniversary.“

“Employees were really friendly and the cook was great! The food came out perfect for a Waffle House. My daughter and I enjoyed ourselves. It was a very pleasant experience.Kid-friendliness: My daughter loved watching the cook make the food in front of us. The food is definitely kid-friendly.“

“Un lugar tranquilo y acogedor.Las crepas muy ricas.El personal muy atento.“

“We had a wonderful time dining on the patio with our dog! The catfish Reuben was delish. Our server, Charles, was really cool, attentive, and brought our dog a bowl of water. Everyone was SO kind!“
