South Asheville Eateries

South Asheville Restaurants

In South Asheville, the dining fare ranges from casual but tasty Mediterranean cuisine to martinis and 18-ounce steak along the waterfront. This area, with close proximity to Asheville Regional Airport and Biltmore Estate, boasts a mix of both casual and upscale restaurants.

Eat a brunch of beautifully-presented gourmet southern cuisine like shrimp, andouille sausage and grits on a porch studded with white columns. Sample Chinese food at one of the first restaurants to eliminate all use of MSG and which also offers an extensive vegetarian menu.

South Asheville's restaurants cater to a wide variety of tastes and moods.

One of my favorite locally owned restaraunts is Tuscon Southwestern Grill.  It has great healthy choices of burritos and low carb bowls, but my favorite is the chicken and spinach quesadilla. 

Speaking of Mexican, you can't go wrong with Don Papa's on Hendersonville Road.  Everything is fresh and made daily.  The pineapple chicken flautas with a dark roamine salad and homemade cesear dressing is a perfect lunch.  They offer a complimentary bean dip as well as a salsa bar for your chips, which is also a nice touch.

Of course we have most of the franchise chains you would want like Five Guys which is my middle son, John, slice of heaven.  I prefer French Fryz where not only do they make their own hamburger patties and fries, but they also have 50's milk shakes with a scoop of ice cream in the shake.  YUM!

JK's Kitchen on Long Shoals Rd is a local favorite "meat and three" eatery.  They are known for they JK homemade chips as well.  But watch your watch, because they are only open for breakfast and lunch, so plan ahead.

South Asheville is a great family oriented area and has lots to offer, not only in the way of eateries, but also recreation etc.  But we'll save that for another blog.
