    Margarita Caliente is incredible. Try the Ceviche and you can't go wrong with the Tequila Lime Beef Tacos if they are on the menu. Menu changes weekly but food is excellent.

    The menu is always changing, but the lobster nachos, scallops, and margaritas will never disappoint (regardless of whatever incarnation they appear in). Check Open Table for last minute reservations!

    Ask for spicy blueberry margarita with mezcal instead of tequila. I had shrimp with kimchi, very interesting combination but the dish was very spicy, I couldn't finish it. Try ceviche sample

    The Ceviche Trio Appetizer . The Chile Relleno Entree . As for desert I can only quote JFK in Paris ; “ Anything Chocolate for desert is always appropriate anywhere “. Asheville’s Finest Restaurant.

    Lobster nachos & Blueberry BBQ Salmon were unique and delicious. Cucumber jalapeño margarita was spicy good, lots of fresh ingredients flavor with a kick.

    Try the Ceviche Sampler and the Lobster Nachos as appetizers. I had the Tequila Lime tacos as an entry. One of the best tacos ever! Excellent place!

    Everything is VIBRANT w/ flavor! Spectacular crab cakes w/ tomatillo guacamole. Apricot piña colada = best ever. Superb hot chocolate (although the churros are unnecessary). Will return!

    Some of the best food and service I've had anywhere. The plantains are amazing and all the food is fresh and full of flavor. It's rare these days to find a restaurant that has service this good.

    Sea scallops with sweet potato and bacon hash was fabulous. Avocado with smoked salmon app also excellent. Pork burrito was disappointing, bland and uninteresting.

    Dinner here is one of my favorites in Asheville. Great food, atmosphere, and service. And the caliente margarita (or any of their margaritas) - superb!

    Margarita Caliente - best drink I've ever had! Fresh muddled berries, lime, and a touch of Habanero... and of course tequila.

    If you're in Nashville I would highly recommend Limones. Everything was excellent I can't wait to go back.

    Often overlooked for prettier cousins, the Mayan Margarita is top shelf! Mezcal and tamarind juice FTW!

    Order a margarita, any margarita. And if you're stuffed, skip dessert. They bring you a lovely chocolate truffle with the check!

    The elote was good, but thought the ceviche was bland - it was missing salt and acid. Service was slow.
