Saffron India Barrel House

Goan curries and goat-cheese naan from a family-run kitchen in the old Barrelhouse space near Beaver Lake, with a full craft-beer-and-cocktail bar. The vegetarian and vegan options aren't afterthoughts. North Asheville FINALLY has serious Indian, and it's worth the trip.

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick

Book early or plan on missing it. Hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd.

Eat & Drink

Hole Doughnuts

Doughnuts fried to ORDER, so they hit warm and a little crackly at the edges. Small menu, done exactly right. Beat the line.
