Jettie Rae's is your go-to Asheville seafood spot, where fresh oysters and Southern favorites like po' boys and a stellar cheeseburger come served with a side of warm, welcoming vibes.
"Another North Asheville favorite that has resumed operations post-Hurricane Helene." - Kay West
"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
"Simple, artful preparation from Charleston native Will Cisa lets the innate flavors of fresh Carolinas and East Coast seafood shine at Jettie Rae’s, just north of downtown. The menu kicks off with an extensive raw bar, daily ceviche selections, and caviar service — and from there moves into entrees with influences ranging from Spain to Maine to the South Carolina Lowcountry. Customers should try octopus a la planxa, oysters bienville, or Gullah-inspired crab rice — or skip the seafood altogether and go for a steak or the legit double cheeseburger. While waiting for a table, indulge in an oyster shooter or cocktail and a few snacks at the Pearl, a tiny vintage Airstream trailer-turned-bar that serves the restaurant’s covered outdoor patio area." - Gina Smith
"Jettie Rae’s is a seafood restaurant with a menu that combines dishes from Maine to the Gulf Coast, influenced by Gullah Geechee and Spanish cuisines. It features an upscale, mid-century style interior and includes an outdoor patio where The Pearl operates. Opened in July 2020, it has become a popular spot for seafood lovers." - Eric Barton
