   For a Saturday at 6pm it was dead, gave us a off putting feeling, especially after driving through downtown and seeing lines out the doors at restaurants. However the Food was good, and service was attentive. But portions size of the pasta dish we ordered vs cost were way off.

   Food was very good and service was professional. We were seated on the covered patio at our request and the street noise was loud but manageable. The four of us enjoyed our meals

    The staff was great. Ralph picked a wine for us that was wonderful and all four of our party were very pleased with the food (one even asked for modification of the sides that came with a dish, not usually possible as preplanning of quantities for a night will not allow it, but it was done anyway). A neighborhood gem and we'll be back soon and often.

    The craft cocktails were amazing. Try the Jamaican Dusk. They do the best smash burger in town. And the seafood options are amazing. I had a delicious flounder dish. Desserts are nice small portions and very tasty.

    A little disappointed in our most recent meal. The pimento cheese was mostly the baked cheese snack topping and little pimento cheese. The cornbread was very salty. We have been there 3 times in the last couple of months and have been extremely happy every time. Hopefully it was just an "off" night. We will be back.

    Avenue M is a lovely venue, spacious with high ceilings. It has been a favorite restaurant of ours in the past. Under new ownership, our meals were fine, but expensive for what we got (very small portions of house-made pasta; a salad of nothing much more than lettuce with salmon for me). Both dishes were OK, but nothing special. My hubbie's stale beer (which he questioned) was received by the bartender with comments about he'd just had that beer on tap the day before. Well, we're locals, so my hubbie had had this particular beer and really enjoyed on previous occasions, both at the brewery and elsewhere, so he knew it wasn't up to snuff. Our server was lovely. She's continued through change of ownership, so we recognized her and chatted. Certainly, Avenue M is a decent option if downtown restaurants are booked.

    One of Asheville's finest establishments. Top notch food, including house-made charcuterie, great vegetables and sides, hand made pastas, and some great fish and meat entrees as well as vegetarian options. And they've got a glorious wine list (Wine Spectator approved), including some really fun & tasty options from all over the world. Service was fantastic, with knowledgeable & personable wait staff (shout out to Tim, who's awesome!), a great sommelier, and excellent bussers/team members to make it all smooth. We greatly enjoyed our date here, and look forward to coming back soon (and sending friends and family here too, when they're in town.)

    My pear vodka and lemonade was very good, great wine selection. The rigatoni was terrible, way over spiced, too hot to eat. My 4-meat ravioli was hard around the edges, taste was ok, no sauce but finished with butter and garlic. Small salads were good, house made champagne vinaigrette was good. This was our second time here and I had high hopes but won’t be back, there are just too many other restaurants that prepare much better food. Service was timely and very good.
