12 Best Rooftops and Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Asheville | Eater Carolinas

"Arguably the top-rated lobster roll in Asheville can be found at Jettie Rae’s, thanks to its impossibly fresh seafood and the expertise of East Coaster chef Will Cisa. The Charleston native also makes a mean cheeseburger, a surprising standout on a menu of classic seafood dishes including fish and chips, oysters, and po’ boys. Its casual, laid-back vibe is an ideal setting for enjoying its caviar service featuring white sturgeon or Siberian caviar, traditional accompaniments, and potato chips. Special occasions warrant a grande seafood tower with an entire whole chilled lobster, 12 oysters, five poached shrimp, four clams, ceviche, and trout dip — and every visit should include a piece of its outstanding key lime pie. Sit on the patio for an al fresco feast." - Brook Bolen
