131 MAIN - Asheville

“The lighting is low and very private. The wait staff must go through extensive training. They all work together in sync. Top notch service!!! The artichokes were absolutely divine! Arrived at the table still on fire!! Deviled eggs we're great but $14 for 4, kinda crazy nothing super memorable. The steak noodle salad was HUGE and plenty to share. The steak was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. Shrimp & Grits were a huge surprise. They were exceptional. Shrimp weren't overcooked at all, which is unique and nice. Grits were creamy, well seasoned and the sliced asparagus in the creamy gravy was almost too good to swallow. All together, seasoned perfectly!. Will 100% get again.”

“I had dinner there last night for my birthday with my 2 besties. The food was great, atmosphere good, they pay attention to details very well. My waiter, I think her name was Tori, she was fantastic!”

“My overall experience at 131 Main was really good! This was my first time dining here, and the service was excellent from start to finish. For an appetizer, I tried the Ahi Tuna, it was very flavorful, and the presentation was beautiful. For my entrée, I had the shrimp and grits, which was a solid 10/10, absolutely delicious! My partner ordered the double-cut pork chop. While the presentation was nice, he was a bit disappointed. The mashed potatoes were plain and lacked flavor, and since the pork chop was very thick, the center was also a bit flavorless. That said, there were several other menu items that caught my eye, and I’m definitely looking forward to coming back to try them. I also loved discovering their Chef’s Bar, where you can sit right in front of the kitchen and watch the food being prepared, that’s where I’ll be sitting next time! Overall, a great experience, and I’m excited for my next visit.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday dinner here on 11/24. Our server, Johnny, was AMAZING! Hands down the best service I’ve ever had. Our dishes consisted of skillet cornbread, Caesar salad, ribeye with loaded potatoes, shrimp and grits and a crab cake. The cornbread was really good, which surprised us both. I did not love the caesar dressing, but everything else was good. My steak was originally delivered well done when I requested medium. Johnny and the manager ( I believe her name was Asia) immediately got this corrected and I had a delicious steak in no time! The brownie dessert was also amazing! Overall, we had a great experience and would not hesitate to return and try other menu items.”

“Fish was cooked to perfection, side dishes were full of flavor, service is outstanding. They also have a variety of luscious desserts if that’s your thing. It was out first time at this restaurant and already planning to go back.”
