This was hands down one of the best dinners I’ve ever eaten. As a chef myself I really appreciated the plating skills and speed. The Chilean sea bass was perfect along with the bed of risotto it was on. I loved the fried oysters as well and for anyone who enjoys cider beers the one they have is really tasty. Overall it was one of the best experiences eating out I’ve had. The service was incredible and this place is definitely a hidden little gem that I recommend to anyone.

Totally stumbled upon the gem. I'm new to Weaverville and have been making day trips to learn more about my new area. It was a Sunday so I looked up places to eat in Marshall but didn't really look the menu and just assumed it was a local joint which I am always into. After a little walk around the island my GF and I went to Star with plenty of parking out front. We loved the old gas station vibe but were unprepared for what was inside. Rustic/vintage would sum it up. We didn't have a reservation but it was ok since they had outdoor seating with heaters so it was very comfortable. The staff were very gracious and friendly. The menu was clearly comfort food but with some French and Cajun influence but nothing pretentious. The menu also had a nice selection of specials so there is always something seasonal. I had the shrimp and crab linguine and my GF had the crusted sea bass. Both were absolutely outstanding. We sometimes struggle to finish entrees and bring home lots of leftovers but the bread service helped us clean our plates. It's only 10 miles from Weaverville so we plan on making this a regular stop in the future. We were told that reservations are definitely recommended

Amazing service by Sarah, such a unique restaurant that used to be a gas station and fresh, Local food. I gave food a 4 vs 5. Because there were no vegetarian or vegan entrees in the menu, nor was there fresh fish.That said, The sides were expertly crafted- including a vegetarian onion bisque, Caesar salad, beet salad and a crispy Brussels sprouts (that stayed crispy!). They specially made a fettuccine primavera for us on the fly.So worthwhile to take a lovely drive from Asheville to Marshall!

First time my wife and I have been here. What a wonderful place to eat. Atmosphere was great! And the food beyond a doubt the best we’ve had in the area. The price is well worth the visit! The setting of having the diner located in an old gas station was genius. It really made me believe I was back in time. No detail missed on the ambiance. We ate at outside dining on a cold night and it was perfect. They showed us to the table, put down seating pads in each chair under a covered dining area with plenty of heaters to stay warm. They also had extra lap blankets for our legs. Wow they thought of everything! My meal starter with seasonal mulled wine that was perfectly made. My meal was sea bass over risotto rice and vegetables. It was crazy how perfect it was cooked. To perfection and not overdone and although we were in a gas station it felt like a fine dining experience. Folks everything we ate was beyond good. This is the place if you want to get out and have a change with great food and great atmosphere. We loved it! Thank you for a wonderful experience!!!We left pics of the appetizers and crispy Brussels here. Hope this helps everyone with their decision to dine.

This is one of the best places to eat in western North Carolina. It’s such a gem to have in Marshall and worth the drive if you’re in Asheville or Weaverville area. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu and the staff is always so friendly. It’s definitely a fave spot of mine.
