DOWNTOWN.
This tiny, local success story is just the sort of place you want to frequent when the weather's chilly and spring seems far away. It turns out amazing Latin-Caribbean fare, lavishing freshness and flavor on its menu with abandon and attracting a strong, loyal clientele in the process. While the interior is subdued, the food absolutely sings. Lush soups, lively, savory fish burritos, exemplary margaritas, a wonderful pork plate, shrimp empanadas and fresh, zesty salsas are among the delicious options. The menu changes to feature seasonal ingredients, and the place even sells its own hot sauce.

Find here a fun blend of Mexican and Caribbean cuisine. The tiny space downtown crowds at lunchtime, but delicious and enormous portions smooth any line-waiting. (from Southern Living)

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.
