"Retro lighting, a long beer and wine selection, and a relaxed, minimalist atmosphere make All Souls the perfect place to come with a group or for a casual dinner date after spending the day floating down the French Broad River. In the spring and summer, you can also take your pie outside to the picnic-style seating in the serene River Arts District. Even if you’re one of those people who regularly toss aside their crust—which we’ll never understand—we bet you’ll end up devouring every edge of this springy sourdough, which gets its tang from heirloom wheat that’s milled into flour on-site. The toppings go the extra mile, too, with fresh artichokes, leeks, and foraged mushrooms. Consider asking them to top your pizza with an egg, and definitely don’t pass up the dark chocolate soft serve." - laura hackett
