    Have been wanting to try this place for a while but the hurricane put a damper on plans. What a lovely evening. The autumn daiquiri and gingerbread White Russian were two of the best cocktails I’ve ever had in Asheville. Swordfish delightful. Can’t wait to return.

    Modesto is simply our favorite Asheville restaurant. Chef Hector's creativity and quality of the food is always outstanding. The lunch menu might be the best bargain in town!

    One of our most pleasurable dining experiences in a while. The small plate (similar to Tapas) selection was fantastic. My wife and I selected 5 items and a dessert which were all easily sharable. The service was fantastic. Our server took the time to explain the various items on the menu and answered our questions. The bartender came to our table to explain a drink variation my wife was interested in and created a signature drink on the spot. We felt very satisfied by the time we were done and was pleasantly surprised when we received the bill and saw how reasonable it was. We attended a comedy show at the Orange Peel which was so convenient to Ukiah. We don't live in Asheville, but we will surely return here the next time we are in town.

    Great to see these folks back in business after Helene. The menu is a bit smaller than usual, but the food is really good and service is impeccable. Asheville is still under a "boil water" advisory so running a restaurant is a challenge but they are making it work. Parking is plentiful right across the street. Please support Asheville restaurants as they continue to recover.
