The best bar/brewery in town right now I think is Burial.

Exactly, she's got the booze, and makes a pretty good sammich. Unless, you were tagging her for recommendations

Green man is my favorite brewery. The ESB is world class.
67 Biltmore is a great lunch spot.

Mammacitas is good tacos.
They used to have a fabulous noodle house there but I think they closed.

Try Farm Burger. Best burger in town

 

[Firebirdparts]

I'm fond of Salsa's Mex/Caribbean. The name sounds useless, but it's quite impressive.

DON'T if you get heartburn, I guess.

Tupelo Honey is a standard for breakfast
Nice Dinner: Chestnut, Curate, Zambra. *get reservations ahead of time!!!* Curate features Iberico pork.
Farm Burger is great
Bar: Top of the Monk. It's a bit of a secret but very cool and worth finding.
Not sure where you are staying, the the Red Stag at the Grand Bohemian is a real treat, as well. It's down near Biltmore.

I can tell you where not to go

Rocky's Hot Chicken Shack and Buxton Hall BBQ (was featured on some shows) both come highly recommended.

I did not care for either - I'm just not into Nashville Hot Chicken, but if you are you may agree with the high ratings.

Buxton Hall was just overhyped BBQ.

I know the haters are mad that Wicked Weed sold out, but I still really like them.

The Track at Asheville

I've heard a lot of great things about Sunny Point Cafe.

 

[headhunter15]

Little Pig’s BBQ is pretty good!

Love the elk they serve in there.

Visit the Grove Park Inn, stay for a night or 3 if you’ve got the time. Sit in a rocking chair in front of one of the huge fireplaces in the lobby. Be sure to look at the wall of historic photos of its construction

 

[GAVol]

Have you tried Chef Love's Elk at Lonesome Dove?

I have not. I hadn’t ever tried it period until somebody took me to Red Stag.

 

[ClearwaterVol]

We’re staying at The Foundry.

 

[Regulator]

For breakfast, Biscuit Head is good, but I’ve had really good food at First Watch. White Lab has good food and brews. I am a Rocky’s Hot Chicken Shack fan and on Sundays, they have a chicken biscuit plate that is scrumptious. Del Vecchio’s is good eating. Papas & Beer is really good Cali-Mex food.

You really should hit LD next trip to Knoxville. Expensive, but a unique and fantastic experience.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Well, they used to have a Krystal. But they closed it.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Love the elk they serve in there.

They serve optimists, too.

 

[Firebirdparts]

Well, they used to have a Krystal. But they closed it.

Probably had capacity issues over at the waste treatment plant.
