About

Bar: Full bar

If you're after upscale dining without pretension, The Admiral is your spot. This West Asheville staple has been serving Chef Richard Neal's seasonal American cuisine since 2007, earning a MICHELIN-rated reputation for dishes that arrive looking like art. The setting is humble and comfortable: a box of cinder blocks across from BJ's, with outdoor seating and a full bar featuring seasonal cocktails and a worldly wine list.

The crowd here is local, not touristy. Reservations are accepted, and the place opens at 5pm daily (closed Tuesdays). For a pre-dinner drink, Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar is a nearby option, but The Admiral's own bar is worth a stop itself. Prices are in the $$$ range, so plan accordingly. Each dish reflects what's fresh that week.
