    Our waiter, Daphne was superb. Great service and a fine dining experience. Delicious root vegetables and salad with pomegranate, squash, pecans, goat cheese. We had a wonderful evening and ended it by sharing the chocolate mousse which was decadent.

    One of our most pleasurable dining experiences in a while. The small plate (similar to Tapas) selection was fantastic. My wife and I selected 5 items and a dessert which were all easily sharable. The service was fantastic. Our server took the time to explain the various items on the menu and answered our questions. The bartender came to our table to explain a drink variation my wife was interested in and created a signature drink on the spot. We felt very satisfied by the time we were done and was pleasantly surprised when we received the bill and saw how reasonable it was. We attended a comedy show at the Orange Peel which was so convenient to Ukiah. We don't live in Asheville, but we will surely return here the next time we are in town.
