7. Salsa's

a party in my mouth
Lovely fresh flavors. Every time I go to Asheville I go here because you can't get this food anywhere else. Great balance of tangy, hot, cold, savory, sweet. Delightful.

We were in Asheville for a day a few weeks back and we went to Salsa's, it was recommended by the hotel. Once we saw it, we thought it looked really fun. The server tried to seat us in the walkway facing the restroom so we asked to be seated somewhere else, she said well we had to sit there because its the next server's table. We said we understand but we want to sit somewhere else. She said, well the server won't make any money if she doesn't get any tables and you don't want that do you?" HOW is that our problem? Then our server was unresponsive and rude during our experience so she made NO money anyway! We was sick at our experience that we finally told the manager. She simply asked who the server was and said thanks. So here I am! The food was fine a bit too eclectic even for my California taste buds, it doesn't matter, the service was SO BAD the food could be the best ever and it couldn't even make the experience neutral.

Excellent all the way around. The attire description of trendy/stylish is misleading. Like most of Asheville, you'll see a little of everything, but Salsa's is best described as very casual.

My favorite place to eat in Asheville! Great feeling, excellent food, and friendly service.
