    The service, atmosphere, and food were amazing at Asheville Proper; we couldn't have asked for a better experience from beginning to end. Johnny P was our waiter and provided the absolute best experience we've had at a restaurant in Asheville or elsewhere in a very very long time. You guys have something very special as an establishment-- especially with Johnny on your staff.

    Asheville Proper is always delicious with an interesting menu selection. We celebrated my Mom’s Birthday with dinner & drinks. They have a wonderful choice of mocktails, too. Yum!

    Highly overrated and way too expensive for the quality of our food. The best part of this restaurant was the fact that we did have a good server. Three people in our group ordered steak, which they’re supposed to be known for, and they were all tough. I’ve made better steak at home that I bought at Walmart. Portions were small for the prices.

    My wife and I were very tired after a long trip to Asheville. We were greeted by a friendly waitress and had fantastic food. The setting is beautiful. Hope to come back some time.

    Despite having a reservation we had to wait about 15 minutes for a table to clear. We were able to sit in the entry area out of the cold. I was glad to see how busy they were. We both ordered steaks and they were prepared perfectly. My cut was a ribeye and had a bit more fat than I expected, but the flavor was fantastic. My daughter had a Wagyu cap cut, and she told me it was very good as well. Overall I was happy with the experience and I plan to visit again when I return next year.
