    Delicious food and a fun, laid back atmosphere. My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here and it was great. They gave us a delicious dessert for free.

    Salads & sliders are great for lunch. Steak & fish items at dinner are to die for. Items on thier lunch & dinner menu change daily. EVERYTHING is made in house and provided from local distributors.

    This restaurant was opened by the folks who run the Corner Kitchen in Biltmore Village. Southern comfort at it's finest in the heart of downtown Asheville. Kid friendly for a lovely Sunday brunch.

    Wow. The sesame crusted salmon was the best fish I’ve ever had. And then the blackberry pistachio trifle was awesome the first night and did not disappoint the second night.

    The kale and calamari salad is the best thing I've ever eaten. Well, really, the whole menu is.

    We wanted a salad for lunch and this was perfect. The Chestnut Salad with shrimp was delicious.

    Lobster bisque, local charcuterie and the pork tenderloin - you will not be disappointed. Top it off with creme brûlée

    Everything here is delicious, and the catfish and the charcuterie plate stand out. But you really can't go wrong...

    Calamari on kale is awesome. Avoid the NY strip.

    The food was a tad cold when it arrived while the fish dishes were very "fishy". I would probably avoid coming with large groups until you try it yourself. Service was good.

    Food great. If you order drinks, prepare to wait 10 minutes to get. Bartender rather chat than handle tickets

    Food and table service was very good. However, the service from the bar failed miserably!! No one at bar and service was very slow, food came out faster than the drinks.
