"“Small but mighty” may be the best way to describe both this West Asheville wine bar’s patio and its menu of mostly small plates — but the wine selection and food flavors are substantial and sophisticated. Its outdoor seating is cozy and intimate and includes a few roomy tables, a covered back porch, and a fire pit. The menu rotates, but save room for one of the richest grilled cheese sandwiches in the city and vegetable-centric dishes seasoned so well even certified carnivores will eat. Be sure to take advantage of the lunch special available Friday through Sunday, a $29 prix fixe menu with a gourmet sandwich, soup, salad, and a sweet treat." - Brook Bolen
