“I’ve been shopping at Kim’s for about two years now and have nothing but excellent things to say. I try to make an effort to support small, family-owned businesses as much as possible, because I value the connections you can surely make with those who run them. I’ve been very fortunate to become close with Daniel and his wonderful parents through visiting their lovely store. It’s always a pleasure to stop by and immediately be be met with kindness and treated like a dear friend. It’s so special to find meaningful connections like that, so I’m very grateful for this store and the sweetest family behind it! ( ˊᵕˋ )♡Not to mention the selection is extensive, organized and well-priced. I’ve never been disappointed with anything I’ve bought from here ~ even when I try new and unfamiliar things. Notable items include the homemade kimchi and my favorite little jasmine tea drink, as well the amazing selection of sweets and housewares. You can find beautiful sake sets and bowls adorned with cats and other cute little designs. The kimchi here is quite honestly THE BEST in Asheville ~ the flavor is perfectly authentic, and needless to say I’ll never be buying kimchi from any other markets again. Kim’s forever! <3”

“We stopped in to look for fresh Thai peppers?️ They did have Thai peppers, which was good, but the peppers weren't fresh, which was disappointing? There was a lot of good stuff otherwise, including cool serve ware & some tasty Shrimp Snacks ? Worth the visit??”
“Sunday the eighth of March, before 9 o'clock. My wife needed Organic zucchini for the celebration main dish, but the shelf spot was empty. A staff member (Ashley) was vigorously working to tidy up, yet paused and listened to my wife's rquest, then proceeded to check outback. Ashley returned with the Organic treasure. Thank You Fresh Market.
Friday the 27th of February at six-fifteen in the evening. Staff helped us find Chia Seeds and Hemp. The checkout with Lisa & Summer was spectacular. Friendship during the ringup is one of the Publix treasures.? My wife was all smiles, thank You ❤️”

“TIENDA EL QUETZAL 10 July 2025
I drove by this place multiple times over the course of a few days while I was away at a workshop in Asheville, NC. What I noticed was that this place seemed busier than a gas station. Then I noticed that it was a Mexican restaurant, and then finally I saw people coming out with take-out bags, so I was drawn to go in.
It's really tough to choose (for me at least) what to try when you don't think you're ever going to go back to the establishment again. I suppose you choose what sounds the best, but sometimes there are sleepers on the menu that just need a little thoughtful discovery.
I tried the tacos here, wasn't too hungry before starting my travel back home. The menu is on a board above the counter and it really is a hole in the wall. It's one of those places I am reluctant to mention because it could change if it got more popular. So I'm just going to report that I did look at what others were eating and the whole menu, small, was represented. Burritos, all day breakfasts, Tacos, Sandwiches, fried plantains (I wish I had tried them because I saw them on everyone's plates!), fried yukka, wings. Although the spread of the menu was broad, from burgers and Philly steaks to carne asada and a Quoetzal breakfast, it was honed down to delicious. I am getting hungry just thinking about what I saw and all the possibilities they offered. Oh well, back to the exercise regimen.
The other part is that the not the hole in the wall part is a grocery store with a lot of beverages at the back wall in a huge cooler. I got a Boing! guava pulp beverage, drank it quickly, then got a coconut milk beverage with the gummy squares. I didn't really explore much in there either, except for the drink case. I was looking for a Topo Chico, which is getting easier to find these days. They were sold out, and so I was forced to choose something other than the easy route. It was a complete spectrum as well, from tamarindo to strawberry soda to energy drinks, but from Mexico. My local mexican grocery hasn't carried these yet.
I'm kind of damning myself now for not going in as soon as my radar went off. The two tacos I got were carnitas and al pastor. The meats were shredded and in small pieces. The tacos had one layer of corn tortilla each and I might not believe you if you had said they were not made there. They came with 2 salsas. One was made with a green melon (I think) and that's all I know other than they maybe had a Carolina twang on the vinegar side. Nice heat, not overly spicy, and the flavors were well melded. Cilantro, onion, and 2 small wedges of lime were tucked into the take out boxes. If you ate there, you got a basket with a wax paper liner. Somehow my order which I ate there was made to go.
I've included some pictures as well, of the exterior (strip mall type storefront off the side of the road), the grocery aisles, the beverage cooler, and the owner, who I got a live photo of by accident and it's so cute how he gives a thumbs up while breaking into a smile. I hope they stay in business a very long time. I should also mention that the owner spoke mainly Spanish and that he was kind and patient as I tried asking all my questions to narrow down what to order. I am studying Spanish, for one reason, to talk more about food. Happy eating!”
“This store was devastated last year with 8 ft of water. Today they are back open and the store is beautiful. Come out and see them today. Tomorrow, 7/10/25, is the grand opening.”
“The staff over there are absolutely incredible. No only knowledgeable about everything they offer, and with a huge selection of delicious teas, sugars and spices, but they are all amazing people who I guarantee will brighten your day, because Irish sure made mine better today.”
“Whether you need a quick fill-up, a snack, this is the gas staion to visit. Singh’s genuine friendliness transform an ordinary pit stop into a delightful experience. His welcoming demeanor and dedication to excellence is unmatched and he’s the reason it stands out as my absolute favorite. He’s always ready with a helpful tip or a friendly chat, and I’m grateful to have such a fantastic gas station in my neighborhood.
Highly recommended !!!”
“This place is a great little find, with lots of variety in a small space. They also have fresh Lion's Mane. Just look at this guy! I want to pet it and eat it at the same time :)”

“It’s an Aldi’ what can you say. I guess their cheese selection is not as big as some other Aldi’s I’ve been to in Asheville area,
They were low on a lot of frozen items, my guess is they are slowly replacing frozen food after 2+ weeks of no power in Asheville.”
“Good deals can be found here on organic, healthy items. It’s hit or miss, but I’ve really appreciated the savings. My only issue is there’s a lot of stuff that isn’t good for me, so I have to be in a strong mood, and stay off the junk aisles. ? For instance, they sell Cozy Shack puddings at 1/3 the price. That one is hard to pass by! And chips galore and candy…
They often have pasta made in Italy and canned tomatoes of a good brand and I’ve found organic there. Also have found healthy items at discount prices in the frozen section.
If you like frozen pizza this is the place to buy it. Occasionally the ‘healthier’ brands are here, too.
Expiration dates or ‘best by dates’ are worth checking but they’re not a deal breaker for me if I’m planning to eat it.
Staff are great.”
“Was greeted immediately upon walking in. The lady was very helpful guiding us through how the store was set up. Kindly offered samples. The olive oil I purchased is delicious!”
“Excellent hot bar, salad bar, fresh sushi and pizzas! Produce is fresh! Large variety of beers, wines, and ciders. The store is very clean and well laid out. Customer service (produce, sushi, and pizza counter) was excellent. I am giving this store 4 stars because I went for lunch 5 days in a row, and all 5 days there was only 1 cashier. I HATE self checkout....please consider employing more humans.”
“Great shopping for the area. Decent store selection such as a food, jewelry, sunglasses, sneaker head shop, Maurices, Old Navy, Halloween Express in parking lot, Shoe Depot, Dillard's, miscellaneous pop-up stands, etcetera.”

“Ingles is an exceptional grocery store! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the cleanliness and organization of the store. The wide selection of fresh produce, quality meats, and a variety of international products always exceeds my expectations. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to assist you with a smile. Ingles consistently delivers on freshness, affordability, and customer service, making it my go-to grocery destination. I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a fantastic shopping experience.”
“I love this store. The selection is amazing and with that I would expect prices to be super high and they are really reasonable. It's a small store, but it is wonderful”
“I shop here quite often. You just have to check the dates, some things are expired, but there are several that are not. Cheaper than going to a lot of your big name grocery stores.”
“I've been coming here since I was a kid and I'm 49 years old. This is a great place to get fresh produce, niche items made by mountain artisans and just a good place to walk around and look at all the wares, flowers and even check out DJ's pickles! These are hardworking folks and you can get much more healthy items for the same price or not much more as you would find at a regular grocery store and you're supporting truly local businesses. Check 'em out-”
“I really like this market and the fact that they have so many healthy and vegan products and options! The grab n go is case is very convenient and has been a real time saver. The staff are knowledgeable and very friendly. It’s a small neighborhood market and it shows. It’s nice to shop somewhere that isn’t owned by a big corporation. They carry vegan products that I had never heard of before so that has been a plus, as I am always reading, researching and learning. Store is cozy but can get very crowded quickly. Prices are a bit high though I know it’s an independent store so I don’t mind paying a little more. Parking is the biggest challenge.”
“Wonderful selection with many many vegan options. We stumbled across vegan salami on sale at the deli and it was delicious. Julio was manning the counter and did a fantastic job. Great addition to the staff. Keep up the great work. Updated from previous review on 2026-02-14”
“Went in to get some peppermint oil for a friend that was suffering from headaches. Any and all oils should be on the same aisle not two different aisles in my opinion”
“Great store for produce, fresh meats, specialty foods and dietary needs. Fully stocked bakery, deli and quick bites ready made. Great organic selections, gluten free, grass fed, A2 Milk.. and much more.
You must stop and see for yourself. You will not leave without purchasing something!”
“Shave more is owned by Ingles so expect the same prices. It is easier to maneuver and get in and out of save more sometimes so I will stop there off of Patton Avenue before I get home. There are less crowds so it can be quicker.”
“Best Live Music~Beautiful~tall, a cappella, Soul Filled Woman she was~my coffee~oat milk~cinnamon~sat & spun for a while on the wooden picnic~no cobwebs here~air n nose~out mouth~”
“Not the largest Ingles and they could definitely expand their beer selection to be more on par with some of the other locations but overall it's decent. They have a good selection of various wellness items which I appreciate.”
“This store never seases to amaze us with its assortiment, cleanliness, freshness, intelegence of employees,and of course, the owner, Tatiana who is always honestly advises us on the best quality products! The best store!”
“Yes to whole foods, they often run great specials. I love to get my healthy nibbles and definitely getting my coffee & chocolate there. Love their connection to Prime now as well!”

“Well stocked location with a friendly owner that can help you select what you need. The store has everything fromm deli meats, candy, canned goods, seasoning, teas, etc... Don't let the store size fool you, this place is popular with locals and has lots of customers going in and out. Highly recommend stopping here!”
“It's a gas station. But it's clean, well kept and friendly. They seem to value their customers enough to give the a safe, well-lit, clean environment in which to get gas.”
“I am giving Ingles as a whole a 1 star. This one is better than some.
HOWEVER! 5 stars to whoever the baker is. The in house baked products have been ON POINT lately , specifically the “San Francisco Sourdough” loaf. I enjoy good bread and I get loaves all over the place, and this sourdough loaf that we got 2 days ago might be the best I’ve ever had. Give that person a raise.”
“There aren't many things I buy from Trader Joe's because most of what they sell is unhealthy. However, they have decent prices for dried fruits and frozen fruits, and interestingly, potted plants. The staff is always friendly. The parking lot is small compared to the number of people shopping in the store.
