Best Brunch. Also the menu is totally gluten free, but you would never know it if you aren't into that. Try the bourbon mimosa and sorghum donut holes.

Small plates, lots to choose from. This is our go to restaurant and we've never been disappointed. The Hole in the Head is flambe style and is a must try through the winter. Hint - be sure to watch the bartender make this one! Live jazz music most weekend nights.

This is where Mexican meets Caribbean - it's a dream. Sometimes the wait times can get long, so smaller parties are best. Even a long wait is worth it. Also, this is where we went on our first date :)

This is the second Wicked Weed location and houses their sour selection. If you haven't ever tried a sour, take a taster or flight first. It is an acquired taste but a worthy experience for any beer drinker and a must do for the Sour Sommelier.

This is the largest private residence in the country and part of the reason Asheville is on the map. The house is packed with old, expensive things. Get the audio tour to really appreciate the history. The gardens are a must see.
