“Idk why we waited so long to try this place. Best BBQ I've had around here. We had the special which wad a smoked bologna sandwich 10/10. We also had the brisket mac-n-cheese 10/10 and the smoked wings 10/10. Highly recommend if you have an urge for some delicious smoked ”

“We loved the 45-minute brewhouse tour for a bachelorette party! It was just enough information and time for people who are mildly interested in beer but don't need to get into too much detail. Unfortunately, the production facility is not active on the weekends so we couldn't see beer being made. The live music in the pavilion was a great treat too!”

“Update April, 2024: always came here for the burgers but appears as if co-owning with Victory has eliminated the GF buns! It's our last time here..sad as we really loved the many cider choices. :-(They've really done a good job of social distancing & enforcing masks when away from your immediate seating area. Good food too! They offer a GF bun & the bbq is too. Best burger I've had in a very long time! The Pineapple Freeze will knock your socks off...esp on a hot afternoon!”

“We visited this brewery during our week long trip to Pisgah with our two German shorthair pointers. Our hike was rained out, though we attempted it anyway. After aborting the hike due to weather, we decided to look for a place to get a mid-day beer. We looked at a couple breweries, even drove to Sierra Nevada Brewery. SN was disappointing since their outdoor area was not covered nor open for service apparently. We then went to Burning Blush to check it out. This was also one of few places open at noon (and it was a weekday). Lucky for us, they allow pups inside, which was a plus given the weather. The place was quiet but as I said, was a weekday with terrible weather. The beers were great, the food truck was amazing, and the staff were very kind. They gave our pups a few biscuits (which they loved). My dogs are my kids, so I'm happy to have found this place! Def recommend if traveling with furry friends! We would 100% go back when we are in the area again. THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS TO OUR POINTERS!”

“Great spot next to Ingles - lots of outdoor. Recommend sitting at the bar if you are at peak times as there is a long line for food! Great burgers and the fried green tomatoes are to die ”

“First time visit and WOW! What a great first impression. Nice open bar with plenty of taps to choose from. Excellent beer and well crafted. There is also a liquor bar for your favorite cocktail.Food trucks are a staple and offer a nice variety of fare.The outdoor space is unbelievable. Plenty of seating and picnic tables. Cornhole is also abundant.Great live music on the weekends.All around a really nice place that’s family and dog friendly.”

“Its been my go to place when I visit Asheville. I aways order the veggie Pizza they have. They let me customize my pizza and always make it to perfection. I have been coming here for over 4 years now and the staff is really good. They recently moved to a new location and have awesome interior and a nice dining area. Can't wait to visit again.”

“Delicious, authentic Mexican food. The recipes are most likely straight from a grandmother's house. The meat is tasty and flavorful. The tortillas seemed home made and just a wonderful texture and taste. The beans and rice had flavor and did not make me feel bloated at all. I am going back whenever I get a day off during the week.”

“Andy and the two lovely ladies that work at subway are amazing!! My 5 year old loves going in there and everyone being so friendly! They also make the best subs!! ?”

“We went here for a birthday dinner with friends from Spain. Absolutely delicious food and extraordinarily nice staff! Many different salsas, authentic; recommendation!”

“Ya know that ol adage "don't judge a book by it's cover?" Well, here's a prime example. The skeptic in me was concerned when we pulled in, but the Google reviews gave me hope as we walked on it. It is one of the cleanest, "home-iest" little restaurants. The wait staff was super friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and appropriately priced. Definitely glad we tried this place out!”

“Ethan made for us some incredibly delicious food, and he was extraordinarily friendly. I was truly impressed. Thanks, Ethan.Vegetarian options: I just customize my orders to be vegetarian which offers a wide variety of fresh veggies.”

“Used drive thru employee sounded like he didn’t like being there and they forgot our biscuits but did give us extra when I walked in. Overall not bad convenient and priced ”

“Becca made the whole dinner experience just so relaxing and smooth. She checked on us in a timely manner and remembered everything we needed.The food and atmosphere are magical. Once you enter the former bank building you are transported into dining bliss.”

“We had a fantastic time. The facility was amazing and a lot of fun. Our tour guide Brittany did an amazing job. She was extremely knowledgeable and personable. We will be definitely be back to tour again.”

“This place is genuinely one of my favorite places to eat in Asheville. The fries are authentic and superb, the chicken and fish are absolute perfection. The vibes are immaculate and the restaurant interior is very much reminiscent of a Belgian frituur. Highly recommend.”

“We were celebrating our 9th Wedding Anniversary. ? We started off with the lobster bisque . For our meal we both ordered the petite filet and stuffed shrimp. It was simply divine ? For desert we had Creme Brulee and Cheese cake. Everything was superb.”

“The best crab cake we've ever had by far. Crab cake is a little misleading in that it is mostly just crab! And high quality at that! Cornbread was pretty good and the club sandwich was delicious. Pretty pricey lunch but worth every penny.”

“We had a great time celebrating my husband’s birthday tonight with our favorite wing flavors. Amber was so sweet and helpful! Always asking us if we needed anything. Love coming here!!”

“We celebrated a wonderful 32nd anniversary and couldn't have picked a better place! The staff were very friendly and willing to assist throughout the meal. The food was excellent and the best we have had in a long time. The setting is beautiful! And we happened to be there on Thursday, where they offer a 20% discount for those who live locally.”

“Loved our servers - Mustafas, Nishant, Sangan. These lovely young men are attentive and pleasant. (It helps that they are so good-looking, too, all you single young ladies out there...)Vegetarian options: Fried cauliflower!!!”

“I got drip coffee - a local brew - which was absolutely delicious and hands down 5 stars. I gave the food a 3 star rating because unfortunately the breakfast sandwich was soggy, bland, and frankly inedible. I would however go back and get the coffee again and try something else from the menu. The breakfast brownie for example looked very good.”

“Wow! Coming from Miami, I can attest to the authenticity of this Cuban food spot. Delicious and delightful!! So glad we found this authentic gem! Definitely coming back for my local Cuban fix.”

“We had a wonderful experience at Fahrenheit Pizza. We brought some family with us from out of town. We had pizza, garlic knots and even tried their cannolis! The food was all very delicious, especially the pizza. And the staff were all very kind and inviting, especially Conrad. (He was the one that sold us on the cannolis) As a pizza snob, this place has inched its way into my top 3 pizza places in Asheville. Cheers!”

“A very pouring staff that's friendly and knowledgeable. Fun place to walk the gardens and see the brewery on the self tour. Looking forward to the guided tour, too. And did I mention that they have Great Beer!”

“What a fun place. Food is outstanding! A little pricey, but you get what you pay for! Make sure you make reservations!Parking: 2 dollars an hour unless it's after 9 p.m. or a Sunday it's free”

“Visited Asheville for a few days and I ate at this location twice. Once to dine in and the other was carry out.The service and engagement from the staff was great! It seemed like a place that gave permission for their staff to be themselves, while focusing on the customers experience. We felt comfortable and at home.We got there before a line formed. It seems to come in waves. We were there mid week around 6:30p. Nevertheless, we ordered our food, got seated and the food began to come out as it was ready.The good was very good. I tried the chicken and waffles to play it safe initially. The waffles, eaten immediately while hot was the best way to go for me. Very tasty. The chicken was also pretty good and flavorful. Well seasoned. Not just that seasoning on the outside but not on the inside foolery. I could’ve done with a little less breading but still good. I went with the chicken fingers type pieces to last on top the waffles.The sides. Maaaaaaaaan!!!!Loved the sweet potato, corn casserole and Mac & cheese. Loved em! Ordered them twice.Enjoy the spot!It’s worth the visit. .”

“So many Reasons to visit! Jewish rye, jalapeño cream cheese croissanty thing, cherry anything, and that's just me! Hubs has his own list of delights. Gotta get there early, though. Items sell out!”

“My go-to is the ice cream sandwiches! The balance of the cookies and the ice cream is perfect and you can take it to go as well without mess! I love the mission and I love the ice cream! Everyone is so nice and welcoming here. I will always be a customer!”
